Friday was busy, but while I was waiting for people I stepped in to listen to the talk by Kiran Bedi, speaking in a small room in the Marshall Center. She's something else, one of those people who just seem to have endless drive and optimism, people around whom you can't help but to become optimistic and willing to try yourself. As one of the deans present put it, "I've seen plenty of officials and diplomats before, but never before a force of nature.

What else... Spent money I don't have after being dragged to Todai, a sushi buffet. At $16 for a lunch buffet, its worth it. The sushi was good, the selection was large, and they also had ramen, udon, gyooza, some chinese dishes and desserts. Considering what you spend in an ala carte sushi place, it's definitely reasonably priced. $2 for a soda was a little ridiculous considering the price, though. I'm definitely interested in going back, when my wallet recovers.

And now back to work and my class presentation for tomorrow...
