OMGWTFTERRORISTS!!!

So, I'm sure everyone has heard about the Mumbai bombing that happened here in India. I'm just going to start off for all your worriers, I am fine. Mumbai is 1000 miles away from Vizag. So I am safe. No one I know was hurt. And there are no terrorists (that we know of...) near me.
Now that that is said, let's talk about it. So many people were killed in Mumbai. I have heard from 150 to 300 people died and many more injured. It is also said that foreigners were targeted. But the thing is, last time I heard only seven foreigners were killed. So there is a possibility that that fact was just some media hype. Never the less, it makes my position as a foreigner a lot harder here in India.
SYA has put many restrictions on us, both because they are worried and don't want to be liable and they were advised by the police. I have to stay inside and travel from places in an auto always, instead of walking. I can only go out with my host family or with a small (as in one or two other people) group. The police are supposedly watching us too. They have been following people when they walk places and they have called up some people when we all meet together. I have been told that I shouldn't trust the police either. Which makes it kind of scary.
Talking with Indians about everything that has happened it a really interesting experience. You get many different views. The girl in which I sit on the bus with is deeply mourning for all the people. But then again you have people who brush it off. My host family seems concerned but they try not to show it. They are really cracking down on my safety. Which, I appreciate, but can be annoying.
It really is quite scary though. Vizag is on the coast so it is liable for a similar attack. Though it is not a big city like Mumbai. There is also the threat of the Naxalites taking advantage of this event to start their own uprising. (The Naxalites are a communist group that supposedly lives in the forests, and they are prominent in Andrah Pradesh) But I'm sure we will be safe. There is talk of coming home early though. I'll try to keep everyone updated. Sorry for not posting as often!!!
Much Love,
