I haven't had the greatest social life since coming home for winter break. Granted, I've never had much of a social life to begin with, but rather than going out, my days and nights are spent watching movies through Netflix. After a crazy and thrilling first semester in college, a month of pure relaxation is much needed.
I have completely immersed myself in the world of Bollywood these past couple of weeks, and my growing love for Indian films has now coincided with my growing love for the Indian culture as well. Even though I've always been intrigued by Indian culture (as well as other cultures), my increased interest has possessed me to order vintage sari scarves. I love watching foreign films, whether they are from France or Brazil, it's always interesting to see the world through another culture's eyes.
I am a huge wanderluster. I always yearn to travel to faraway places, to experience the world, to learn more about other people. I find the idea of traveling the world very humbling. I want to be in a new place, a place much different than my own. It just shows that there is more to life than what I usually see, and that there is just so much more out there. Unfortunately, being a poor college student with academic obligations makes being a jet-setter quite difficult. But spending a few bucks to experience various cultures through the art of cinema contents me just as much for now.
