what time is it, you ask?

it's picture time, of course!  now, i admittedly have not been great about taking pictures the last few weeks, but i have still somehow accumulated quite a few.  hope you enjoy!

[this, my friends, is what the Taco Bells in India look like on the inside.  here, the Bell is considered "gourmet" fast food]

[a tree outside the Boys' Home that I only saw for the first time two weeks ago.  I've been going to the Boys' Home nearly every day for the past three and a half years.  so much for my observational skills]

[this is my friend Rakshitha. she was supposed to be listening to Prabhu's directions on playing with clay, but she was much more interested in posing for me instead]

[the finishing touches on Salomiya's "cake"]

[they all discovered early on that snails were easy to make. this one was the best of the lot]

[this is what Imran's hands looked like after just 10 minutes. the boy was in heaven]

[this used to be my footpath when I walked from the flyover to Mysore Circle. not anymore.]

[Namma Metro progress? who knows]

[Prabhu decided to decorate the clay models a bit]

[check out my awesome bracelet. I made it myself]

[the goddesses of Doddabelle Colony]

[a shop that charges for plastic bags! I love it]

[if you look closely you will notice that madam is already clutching the pair to the earring I am dangling, but you know how these babies are with their shiny objects]

[I cleaned the cupboard at the Boys' Home!]

[our man tried to convince me that he was wearing these to his friend's wedding on Saturday. thankfully he was joking]

[with the Prakash-a at his friend's wedding]

[note: this picture was actually taken last April in Goa, but I saw a guy today wearing the exact same shirt and didn't have my camera, so I decided to use this one instead. in case you can't read it clearly, it says, "sorry girls, I only date models"]

sorry there ended up being so many again.  one of these days i'll get the knack of this and there won't be so many all in one go.
