Cathy and I would be lasered To death if we lived here

Ok so I have a lot to say but first, I wanted to follow up the picture
of Cathy with a post explaining...

Last week we had a med student (actually more like an intern) named
Kalai. She was awesome and we picked her brain about a bunch of Indian
culture things... Some of which Cathy already mentioned. But the thing
we found particularly shocking was this...

According to Kalai, female medical students are only allowed to leave
the Amrita hospital grounds once per month (ps - according to our
other intern, subhas, men live outside grounds and can go wherever
they want). To leave the campus, a woman (these girls are 18 - 23) has
to get a form filled out by the guard saying where she is going
(really the only option is to your family's house) and what time she
leaves. Her parents have to fax something to the guard saying they
know she is coming home and only home and acknowledge what time she is
leaving, how long it takes to get there, and what time she is
expected. She then has to get her time card stamped by the guard. When
she gets home, her parents have to time stamp it also and then again
when she leaves saying that she was only at home. Then when she gets
back to the hospital campus, the guard has to approve everything and
again, stamp her card. This happens once a month.

We asked her "what about going right outside the gate to the ice cream
shop?" she said that counts as your one outing a month. It's insane.

So now on to the picture...... So you have to have seen the
never-ending story (2 I think) to get this reference. But in this
picture you are seeing Cathy by the main entrance gate of the hospital
grounds.

Do you remember the scene in the never-ending story 2 where atraeu has
to ride his horse through those different gates in the desert? I
haven't seen it in so long that I can't remember where he was going
but anyway... During that scene laser beams shoot out of the eyes of
the columns that are made of lions or something and he has to go fast
and dodge them on his horse. That's exactly what I picture happening
to the girls who try to 'escape' Amrita...

A girl can't take it anymore so she decides to make a run for the
scoops ice cream shop but they are watching her and as she makes a
break for it through the looming arch, lasers made of curry shoot out
and pelt her to death. Once again the conservative society wins. No
sex for her

And that is why Cathy and I would experience death by (curry) laser if
we lived here. We are just too bad ass to be contained by rules. And I
think death by curry would be better than living like that!
