Well, I'm back in Big D and full of what they call jet lag. That means it is 6am and I've been up for 2 hrs already eating and surfin' the net! Had some good cereal and milk..yum..and a big scoop of crunchy peanut butter. I am very positive that my diet here in the US will be
somewhat different than it was in asia. haha...only a joke..it's going to be a complete 180 degrees..no more roti and curry for breakfast each day with a glass of chai tea or noodles, tom yam, dum briyani, etc for lunch and dinner...my little stomach is just going to have to adapt to the big foods we have here in the states. for my first meal home, I had pasta and chicken...a hearty meal that left me hurting, BUT I came back for more in the form of my mom's indian food..not sure what the food was called, but it was rotli and some sort of saag.
On another note, I really want to pat myself on the back for the souvenirs I purchased..although not too many, I finally got a chance to look at them all and may I say..I did a tremendous job in what I got..mugs, a saki set, t-shirts...replica Petronas towers, magnets..etc etc...they all look high quality and top notch..that is impressive for the lack of space I had (no I didn't buy an extra bag like some of you out there) and the woozy state I was always in due to a lack of adequate sleep.
For my next rave, I'd like to thank the british, the dutch, and the canadians for being so damn great! I loved meeting all of the travelers from england, ireland, and scotland..they were just the best of fun...the dutch were everywhere and were a blast..the canadians showed the rest of the world that, yes, north americans travel and, no, they are not americans! haha...you with your CA flags everywhere..funny...
ok, well, I'd better get some sleep or organize something for my move into my new place in Las Colinas...or get another snack or find that friggin' cord to my camera so I can send some pictures off!
Hope it's good...
"DO IT!"

This is why I drink so much tea! I encourage you, my friends and family, to do the same!
Haha...sooooo far from the truth. I've had just the worst time getting my sleeping schedule in order...i wake up at night..sleep during the day. i read at the oddest hours..exercise at the oddest hours..

Actually just in the airport for endless hours, but it:s quite japanese and quite nice. Being here at the end of my 1 month journey leaves me with happy thoughts...relief of surviving, joy of new friends, joy of new adventures and heights acheived, joy of life..connecting. Whether with others or flights, its about connecting when you are traveling and especially when you are alone. You]ve gotta be outgoing, open to えヴぇｒｙてぃんｇ, and learn to read random shlitzl! (It:s fun using keyboards with characters just thrown all over the place! ああｌきじいえｆｊふぃｆｊひ）. Well, I think its time for some last sushi, a hot shower if I can find one, and maybe a trashcan for my clothes (I think they are stinky from no wash and lots of travel!)..
Hey friends, I have found a place for the coming year starting in August. Located in Las Colinas, the Canal Side Lofts are brand new, offer many cool facilities (boxing ring, movie room, clubhouse w/ plasma screens, etc.), and are close to work. I move in August the 1st which is when I get back from Asia. The website is Canal Side Lofts. Check 'em out! The idea is to remain close to my friends in Dallas, but also move towards work; this move accomplishes both. Hope you can stop by sometime....or help me move??? heh.
Hello my friends. I finally booked my ticket to Asia a couple of days ago. After wish-washing for months on where in the world I would travel this summer, I came to my senses and realized what I'd be missing without the journey to the Far Southeast. Leaving the 2nd of July and returning the 31st of July, I'll cover the countries of Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore, and Indonesia (Bali) during my stay. Also, a big note here is that I am traveling alone! I am really excited for this opportunity; quite a blessing actually. I hope this trip enlightens me even more to the realities of the world and, also, its possibilities. To keep my ideas floating around and my voice heard during the trip, I have come up with a website to document my travels (PTP). Please follow my journey and stay in touch. Cheers, Prem.
My new road bike! I got it two days ago and have logged about 30 miles on it so far. I am trying to get to about 20 miles a day within the month. Just thought you guys would like to know...
I just wanted to note that right before Baccalaureate Service on the 19th of May, I met with the famed economist, Dr. Jeffrey Sachs. He has contributed to the field of economic development in more ways than any individual can fathom. It goes without saying that I was completely starstruck (in an academic sort of way) and also inspired.
