Well Diwali has gone by..and so are my hols. I should say that the trip back home was really a refresher. On reaching bangalore on the 23rdh a surprise at the airport from my roomie..i completely went crazy...wandering around the streets and taking in all the changes i could see in my favorite city left me with an amazing feeling. With a drafted list of the things i had to do..i set out to explore bangalore with my best pals. The night was one of the best i had spent in the city ever..the next day i headed homeward..with immense happiness that m going back after 3 months...snuggling into a warm blanket at 5:30 in the morning on a cold november day with ur mom beside u is an experience in itself .And then that hot glass of milk...and garam parathas..simply wow..the initial days went by so fast that i didnt even realise it..meeting old frenz and relatives was another add on..and to top it all was the amazing weather...and ya the news of our results kept me frantic for days n wen we finally got our results..i was happy..very happy... jumping all over the house...diwali came by n i had a resolution n so the Diwali was a quiet one..with very little 'shor-sharaba". Somehow,the solemn atmosphere was a relief from the noise and pollution. I get a feeling of satisfaction when i think of the diwali i celebrated with 'no crackers-no pollution and no sound'....it was time for me to head bck to bhubaneswar..
Loaded with a lot of food and a bag of clothes(for which i landed up paying 1800/= for extra baggage)..i reached back on the 8th of november.wit I guess the break was needed. I went home with a lot of apprehension about coming back as life at NIFT is not as easy as I supposed it would be. The reunion with my dearest of friens in bangalore and my family in ooty left me wondering if i shoul actually go back. But then..the inspiring words from my dad that this was an amazing chance i was so intent on losing..and the words of my best friend from NIFT pulled me back to bhubaneswar...so here i am...back on track...again with the same routine of classes..assignments..presentations...n all d fabulous masti i have wid all my frenz...m happy to be back..but ya i miss d food...thank u to d ppl who helped me choose..n choose well..luv ya guys...
