mosquitoes

I got a mosquito bite yesterday. It is only my second one since getting here (which is, I think, very impressive) but it completely freaks me out when I get one.
I am immediately convinced that I'm going to get malaria or dengue fever which, rumor has it, is worse than malaria.
So far so good but I just thought I would share my personal paranoia with the world.

My last Hindi class is tonight. I'm not sure if I'm going to take the next part in the spring, more because of scheduling than anything else, but I'm happy that I took this class. I remember coming in to land here in Delhi when they made the announcement and thinking that I couldn't pick out even one word from what they were saying; now I can pick out some words when I fly, which is a nice feeling.
