Should be studying...

but instead I'm tip-tapping on my mactop ... I've just returned to Sudha's, she's my Anatomy & Physiology teacher. I spent the night at her house and she's off teaching at College. I've been taking advantage of some much needed alone time and had the opportunity to see a bit of Trivandrum. However... I REALLY DO NEED TO revise and study. My finals for Level I TTC are in a fortnight and I feel like I don't know anything... I'll catch you up on the progress of my teaching skills soon, I promise!
What I will share is that I LOVE the Surya Namaskara (sun salutation) and have taught it many times. I still need to perfect when to inhale and exhale but it will come, as Swami Santhi says... "slowly slowly.."
So I will leave with a photo of Sudha, her best friend Suresh and my fellow classmate (they are both part of Swami Santhi's inner circle) along with some of my class mates... 
Once I've revised my plan is to post some photos of my new neighbourhood, which is colorful fairly run-down and full of colour.
My life here is simple. I spend little to no money... the most money I spend is 444 rupees to top up my Indian mobile!

It's 3:16pm and post lunch I have a bit of the daysleeps hanging heavy on my eye-lids. So wherever you are and whatever you're doing, I hope you're happy and able to find the sunshine.
