I thought I was going to be working on my monograph and various academic tasks the whole day. But the vibe at work was very much "school's out!" and everyone was busy with practice for our Faculty games. Since I am on Team Karrom, I immediately started playing Karrom with another colleague. My first game in 41 years. But I was bested by younger colleague who was playing for the first time. No matter! I still managed to get my white discs in the pockets which is a miracle!
Attached is a picture of the Karrom board. Summary rules of the game in the alt text.
"This is book about the dead, and the people who are left behind. It is also a personal story, written in my own voice, as a citizen of a nation I cannot recognize as my own. The thousands who died were killed with the permission of my people. I am writing this book because I refuse to offer mine." -- Patricia Evangelista in her book's Prologue
