Nidhi
I have not posted for some time now....and surely its because the things going on in my life is rather mundane....a happy kind of mundane events and experiences...I have been home for quite sometime now...and for the first time I am spending time at home without feeling guilty of missing classes or with the worry of the breaks getting over in a jiffy..

A contented time.....that’s what it is...and I get to watch all the soccer and cricket...and spend lots of time doing what I like...which is as plain and simple as spending time with my mom and dad. Watched soccer match with dad at 12:30 in the night ...we kept munching one thing after another...and it was so nice reconnecting...especially since I rarely get to spend time with dad before TV...last time I remember I saw a soccer match with dad was in the year 1998-The finals.

Having mom means having all the time to chit chat …which I thoroughly love doing…and having amazing home food…its not lavish for sure…simple and yumm !! Its fun getting up early to catch up with them for the morning walk and then doze off to sleep again by 6, I being me [:P ] And yes, it also gave me some time to know some people who have come to mean much to me….to reconnect with old friends…

Its amazing how easily one can slip into the home environment and forget about ever being away from it...I know most of my friends have already joined and spent their salary...splurging, and enjoying...learning new things…getting pampered at the best places...but I am happy to have this time to me and my family...

I doubt whether I will ever get so much time to be totally ‘vella’...and have all the goodies at home...and am I glad....so H@#C you gave me a good bargain by giving me these amazing months at home....and corporate life here I come....soon enough :P :))

An amazingly nostalgic picture which I found on the net...

    Ok, I am missing home now. Yea, for me the most happy moments were, eating yummy chat that mom would make sitting in our balcony with Dad, like always, reading the newspaper and saying hmmm-haan to anything we would say and with our family dog barking at unknown strangers and me and brother fighting over stupid things...

    Although, dad loves watching sports too but I used to hate watching cricket with him because he was always critical of Indian team (while reading newspaper...arghhhhhh).

    I love bugging mom when she would be cooking. She hates it when we start eating things right from the gas (like sabzi or anything she would be cooking).

    Evening walks with mom and eating icecream on the way like teenagers was great fun too.

    I am sure you will enjoy your moments of solitude too when you move out and the new exciting corporate life but these are the moments you will remember the most. So, enjoy them the-lazy-way...

    Aww! That's true. Well, I love the arguing as well. And yeah, connecting is awesome. And every time, it's a new level, eh? Anyway, good to know you're enjoying the leisure. Once you start the work, it's gonna be a different life altogether. You already know that :P
    Enjoy the Cricket on my behalf too. :D
