Christmas has come and gone. I hope
you all had a great Christmas, cause I sure did. Now let’s just take a look at
the calendar.
31st December 2013. Tonight
will mark the end of one hell of a turbulent year; and when I say turbulent, I’m
saying it only from my perspective.
This year was a like a violent sea
storm: thrashing its stinging waves at me whenever and wherever. I graduated,
yes, that was a good thing indeed. But even that wasn’t an easy process. I had
a nerve problem in my right hand just two days before my final exams, and the
stress that followed is something I better not get into right now. After
graduation, it was time to look for a college to do my Masters. After a series
of tests and exams, I got into Amity. A good thing again. The challenge came
only afterwards. Settling into Delhi, adjusting among people who are TOTALLY
different from what I was used to seeing, the weather, the food, vegetarian
crap. Basically, new college, new place, new people- and too much of ‘newness’
is never really great. But I finally adjusted to the lull waves of the sea,
facing the tempests as they came. Moving away from my mom was definitely the
hardest thing I’ve ever had to do in my life till date. There were wet pillows
and sleepless nights, oh yes there were; but there was also a sense of
independence and responsibility which I really started enjoying. In some way or
the other, this year was one step towards growing up (turning 21 was a whole
different story though). The Andaman
trip, travelling back and forth from Saudi, unexpectedly celebrating my
birthday at home with my parents… these were definitely the highlights of this
year. All in all, this year was a mixed bag of joy and pain. Pain a bit more
than joy, actually. I’m thankful that I’m blessed with such wonderful parents
and friends, who helped me get through the crap that this year put me through.
2013, I’m glad you’re coming to an
end.
Party hard, everyone. Advance New Year
wishes to all. :)
Lots of love,
Creative Insanity.
