haven't seen any of you in a long time
 I like reading these chapters of your lives, hope I get to make an appearance in the book eventually.

1. After spending a year traveling to those 14 countries, I believe I am officially tired of travel. Ready for a ticket to a domestic boring life, please. [Lived in Paris, Vietnam, and Budapest for a year]. Now doing higher level pure mathematics research in Potsdam, NY, a town of four main streets arranged in a [musical] natural sign, and having a blast. Applying for graduate school in mathematics and a Fulbright program to teach English in Vietnam, maybe. Like I said, tired of travel. Still dorking it up as much as possible, baking as much as possible, cooking vegetarian food (I'm not a vegetarian yet, but my roommate is so I am learning the wonders of eggplant). I miss writing a lot, but don't have enough heart to do math and writing, both of which are so emotionally draining. One year from now, I will have just graduated from school, four years of VSA, three years of fixing computers for the IT department, one year of traveling, and who knows how many relationships during those four years of college. I'll also have taken the GREs and hopefully gotten into both a grad school and some kind of one year do something somewhere program.

In the shorter term, went to Canada yesterday, going to Montreal for five days on July 25 when research program is over, then Seattle for one week, then Portland for five day math conferences and maybe I'll see Steven, then home for 14 days in August and maybe see some of you? and/or Santa Barbara, San Diego, Phoenix before going back to school.

2. What is the currency of value? A life? Money? Faith? Love? More importantly, what is my currency of value?
