A pair of doors opens and three elegantly dressed dancers step out onto the veranda of Whig and Clio Halls. After some sweeping shots, the dance begins: Twirling dresses, sparkling jewelry, and energetic movements fill up the video screen as Naacho, Princeton’s multi-style South Asian dance group, launches their 20th anniversary show — “Shaandaar: A Royal Affair.”

Before I came to Princeton, the word “chill” was merely an indicator of temperature, often useful for describing the weather. Now, I use “chill” to describe people, places, classes, and almost all my Princeton experiences. It’s a blanket word with an overall positive connotation and an indistinct meaning. The versatile “chill” is a word my friends use for various — practically all — contexts.

The fall of my junior year, I sat in one of those dark wood-paneled East Pyne classrooms, learning about the transformation of France in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. For weeks on end, I heard the same French word I did not know over and over again. Slowly, from context and repetition, I pieced together some understanding of it.

It wasn’t until a month before Feb. 24, 2023, the date marking one year of the war, that I truly registered the ongoing reality of the crisis in my birth country. Every day, the people of Ukraine exist in a state of unimaginable horror. They exist, carrying on with their work and studies, taking care of their loved ones, and praying for a tomorrow they don’t know will come. They exist, until they do not.

Strolling down Elm Drive at midnight as the wind pierced through my layers of wool and fleece, I was at an odd sense of peace. Whether it was the wintry chills that numbed my senses or the absence of students rushing up and down campus, the environment was just how I liked it: placid. Save for a few barely discernible silhouettes off in the distance, the road was a desolate slope of asphalt.

When your friends ask what happened to me, I know what you’ll say. You will shrug and say that you could never date an American girl. You will shrug and say we were just never a good match, that an American girl could never understand you the way a Japanese girl could. It’s where you spent 18 years of your life, anyway. It’s what you’re used to.

Two young people meet on a train, each on separate journeys to find themselves. Instead, they find each other. In the “Before” trilogy, Jesse and Céline find love and romance, laugh and bicker, and lose and regain each other through a series of disconnected conversations — once in their 20s, again in their 30s, and then as parents. The films repeatedly confront and resolve the contradictions of an ideal love interrupted by the demands of real life.
