To meet a friend after 10 long years and then to realise she is engaged makes you wonder at what pace the time has flown. If only there was a rewind button.

Marilyn Monroe

"I believe that everything happens for a reason. People change so that you can learn to let go, things go wrong so that you appreciate them when they're right, you believe lies so you eventually learn to trust no one but yourself, and sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together."

Christmas

Of late, I have not blogged as much as I  would have ideally liked. There has been a lot to cherish and write it down to memory. But. Mr. Laziness got the better of me and Ms. Procrastination seems to have become my new best friend. Which explains the absence, considering the amount of time I spend with them these days. For starters, I slept for 12 hours straight last night and I am embarrassed to the core. I got up and I wouldn't mind sleeping some more, which hurts my inner voice. Because my conscience has still not left my side, I am up and writing this post.

Christmas was great. I met up with my old roommates. We went to the midnight mass at St. Patricks Church and then surprised another of my former flatmates at her party. Hogging on good food never felt better. It was a reunion of sorts and the spontaneity of the plan added to the charm. 

These are the wonderful people who helped me in my first year in a new city.

Tanvi was in town and so Christmas dinner at 11 East Street brought out that christmassy feeling. Admidst all however, the weather has invited Mr. Cold and Ms. Cough, much to my dislike. *sneeze* Adios! :(

9 Dec - 16 Dec

I've been away for too long now. Well the first round of submissions is done. And so has happened the awaited trip. The countdown thus has long been over. A very pleasant week it was. Everything I expected it to be and more. Back to the normal grind, the fact that it is over is slowly sinking in!

Clueless

And all of a sudden when it is time to register for Placements and the time draws near, realization dawns. Four long years have flown by. I am still where I was. I don't know what I want in life. Rather I want everything. That I cannot have. Hence it is time to close some options. To narrow it down. I wish it was as easy as closing my eyes and seeing that thing shining so that I could follow it steadily. The fact is that all I see is a blur. The will is there. So is the determination. The problem remains with the focus. 

Birthday Baby

Ok. First with a sheepish grin I have to admit. I was not the first person to wish my boyfriend on his birthday. Infact, I came a late second. Not so bad you would think. But I'll tell you why. Ms. Hazarika slept off! Yes, she did. So she thought she will close her eyes and relax but in the process, managed to doze off and the only next time she came to her senses, she found it was already 6 hours past! The situation would have been worse but her sweet boyfriend managed to save things. He went off to sleep himself so that no one else could wish him. Therefore, the second spot :*

I love you a lot. You are my hero. Happy Birthday sweetheart <3 I am counting days till I can set my eyes on you and once that, I am not looking anywhere else. Next week, by this time I shall be by your side. *big grin*
