Being away from home is always difficult.....
But my stay away from home is being made a little easier and worth it by a few friends around me...My friends in mumbai and also to all those guys back at home (for being there when I needed u the most),thanks guys , this one is to all of you .
To all my colleagues, for making me feel very comfortable in the team and for laughing at my stupid n silly jokes.
To all the girls I stay with , u have made my life more colorful--(literally,my first big time holi celebration was with u folks). For being there with me during my bad days...Jus listening to me, it made all the difference. For putting up with all my temper tantrums.
For all the times I have spent with you guys.
To my friends back home for all the calls, for being all ears when all I did was just crib.
Thanks Guys....Thanks a lot, for adding an happy episode to my life .

Letter to daddy.....
Hi daddy,
Hope you are doing good and are happy.We are going on with our life but its is no more the way it used to be.Things have changed daddy and changed a lot after you left.I have always wanted to tell you something and im telling this to you now in this letter
Certain things and people are always taken for granted,Our parents are one of the few people we always take for granted.
They would always be with us , be there to guide us, see us through the up's and down's of life and yes i did take my parents for granted too.But not any more cause life thought me otherways but the price for learning my lesson was too high.
I loved you dad ,still love you and always will but im not sure if i actually told you how much i loved you when you were around.
The importance of a person is understood in their absence and dad u have been so important to me in my life and i realise it now when its all too late.Wish you were around to see your daughter live an independent life .You would have been really happy cause you taught me how to live .You gave me courage.You built my confidence and you taught me to love in spite of all the odds.
I miss u daddy , i guess iam late and should have told you earlier- I LOVE U daddy and i love you so much, though my actions or words could not have potrayed that to you .But deep inside my heart you are my hero.
I would just love to pick up the phone ,call you from bombay just to let you know how im doing. But i know on the other end the phone would just be ringing followed by a silence that would be so deaffening.You have left a void in my life , a void that no one can ever fill a void for me to look into and realise what life has taught me.
What was the hurry dad? why did you leave without even telling us a single word.
Every single milestone i cross -how i wish u were around to cheer me and take me up further. What happened to the promises of u and me visting the US together. There are so many things dad so many promises to keep up,so many things for me to tell you and so many things for u to see.What was the hurry dad??
But still you did your job so well... even leaving in such a hurry u taught me a lesson dad.
Dont take anyone for granted and make sure you tell the person how u feel about them cause tommorw might be too late.
I was late once and have been punished but now i will make sure i never do the same thing again. Love you daddy and miss you a lot .Missing you every single minute.
Love
Your daughter
P.S :Hope you will be able to read this letter. Everyone loves you a lot and misses you at home

Reality Bites
Im not a feminist , but I would always be the first one to react or counter if anyone says the old cliches about girls.
girls cannot stay without gossiping about another girl
Girls , no matter how close they are,they are jealous of their best friends etc etc ...........................
Being a girl I have heard and countered each of these. But the happenings for the past few weeks have got me thinking again...Probably...Just probably may be a few of those cliches might actually be true.
8 girls was a big group to move into a new place.But considering the fact that I was staying with 13 ppl now in a 2 bhk converted to 3bk,it was a better proposition for 8 of us to move out of this place to a new 2bhk house.
It was not the number of ppl alone but a lot of other associated problems and we had no way out than moving from the current place.
It seemed really simple ,jus that we have to look into a 2 bhk with basic furnishings and kazooooo we can shift.
So we stared looking out for a place,oh my god, it seemed like eternity .If the house was good- the society was not ready to take in spinster not even one so where is our point trying to convince them to accommodate 8.
If the society had no problem then atleast one out of the 8 girls had a problem with the house..Either the locality is not ok, the rent is far to high, the place is stuffy .....The reason could be anything.
We began looking for a place in the final weeks of February and even by end of march we were not able to find a place. Tensions rose and now egos came into play.
If one person said a yes to a place , then other say's no and gives a new option but the first person does not want a house in the locality. Why? The place was flooded during July 26...Whew !!! Wasn't it like the entire mumbai was flooded????? Lame reasons, arguments and finally no decision !!
Its been three months since we started looking for a house but we do not seemed to have even moved one step close to our destination.
"Girls can never decide....And when its 8 there will never be a single decision"-said my colleague . Most unlikely from me, I jus did not counter this b'cause I knew he might be right , we can never decide!!!
