I am mad.

Lots of things going on at the same time. I am trying to write the article for the Telegraph, getting back to my website and also doing my own stuff.

Things have been ok but silly things just snaps me. Like people coming over trying to preach about their religion. Who wants that? I dont at least. If i dont go over trying to preach you about mine, I do not want you to come over at my desk and speak for hours trying to get me into things just because i am not rude with you.

Next time i swear, i am going to talk back.

car head ache

I am tired of being scared and not driving.

Few days back went out to the main street at night, was scary. But, this time i am determined, i have to learn it up. At any cost.

This morning i drove to school for work. The moment i decided i would, i wasnt hungry anymore and was walking up and down the apartment. Felt like a school kid. That made me more frustrated, how long can i be scared? Someday or the other I have to drive, so why not today?

It was my first morning drive alone. It went ok, but my parkings still not good. But have found a friend who has a permanent license and will take me out. Am so glad and relieved. I need to drive perfectly before March. How important small things can be in life.

Hurrah

Scary. I took a big step today. I have been scared to drive and telling friends to company me while I go around in my car.

Today had to go to school around 10 pm to take a print out for my submission tomorrow. So, i drove alone. Wasnt even sure if i could make it but decided to do it, facing my fear instead of being scared always. Seems i have to get over this, so that I can freely drive. I couldnt park properly but anyways it did make me happy.

Lots of assignment to do and oh did i say, am back to the gym again. Hurrah!

Italian

A new hobby! Yessssssssssssss!!!

Have been thinking for few days, need something interesting to learn up and do it too. Guess what, will try Italian cooking! I love watching cooking shows and food tv is one of my favs. I love experimenting too, so paired both of them and thought to try my hand at something new.

Went out for the grocery today and went into isles I have never went before, seeing all the kind of vinegars, seasonings and loaves from rosemary to thymes and couldnt recognise the Italian basil.

My Kitchens cleaned and organised and am ready to go. Hopefully can cook for my friends tomorrow something interesting. no wonder i got tired the same things, tring to mix and match and have no excitement about it.

So, here i go. Hopefully can post later how i am doing with some pics! Cant wait to get started.

the other family

Yesterday was so much fun, not that i went out somewhere but just simple things in life can mean so much to you.

After going back from work was having lazy time, till i decided to go online. Had a chat with Swarup and the entire family (my bf's larger family). It was really nice, seeing them all in the webcam and talking to my little friend- Swarup!!!! He is damm cute!

Never did i know, how another family can mean so much to you. It made me so happy to talk to all of them and knowing that i was being accepted in the larger family in a very casual way. It was good.

This morning got to talk to Manoj (bf's cousin), who came to Florida and now is in Chicago over the weekend. It was so nice. We chatted for hours never feeling it was the first introduction. while they drive through downtown and enjoy buffets, i am here at work. It is Saturday and very few people in the lab.

Waiting for my car to be brought back, left it with a friend in the break. Hopefully will drive around with Win, till i get the hang of it:)

Who knew it?

Who knew it? I went back to my apartment, it was spotlessly clean. Oh , how i love my new owners of the apartment.

The mess was gone and they even cleaned my bathroom and put a new shower curtain! How i wish they told me they had this solution to clean off the greases, which i tried to do the day before to clean up my place. Never mind, its much better.

I am horrible at work today. There are so many problems in the beginning of the semester, and i felt so stupid in not being able to find the right driver for the laptop. I learn it everytime and i forget to use up a little more of my common sense. Feeling horrible, not a big deal but dont know it still makes me feel bad.

As for my classes, they are going on fine at least for now. I hope i can get to manage to get better!!!

oh my god

I am a disaster.

my apartment lokks like a muddy one. My showers finally working but took me 2 hours to clean it up before i could step in it.

I hated myself as i walked in a mismatched shoe and funny red bag, just because it could hold my laptop. Complete fashion disaster. Not that i am a diva, i just prefer not turning into a disaster!

Mess

Mess in my apartment and am stuck. Guess what, problem with my bath tub and they couldnt find the line. So, its a mess for the last two days.

They are finally digging up my kitchen floor today and hopefully things get solved today.

Went to school and as always it scares me. I pick up as it seems later but for now am frozen. i love advertising but the anticipation of whats going to happen is just too much. I hope I can do ok.

Cant wait to go back to the rest of the classes. It is scary but then I better face it! What say?

new start

Sunday and am working.

Thats because the schedules are not done yet and also i have to complete my hours. But since it is late afternoon i dont mind. Somehow no matter how hard i try i cant get up early. I get up almost around noon and after my quick cup of coffee and a bad sandwich I rushed to work.

The apartment has been having a little trouble with the water problem. My roomie hasnt moved in yet. The school reopens tomorrow and am trying on a new schedule. A year of fitness and lots of change. But need to get up a little early for that.

My car is still with Arun and as it seems he's stuck so cannot get it before a few more days. I am sad thought can drive around with Win, which i now know is not possible.

My parents and sister is in Bangalore, shes doing her training there for the next 6 month in BHEL. Am sure it will go on fine with her. Shes smart.

Am going home in June and so excited. I have to save money for my ticket which i told i will do and also get gifts for everyone. A tough job to save around $1500 minimum.

Manoj is here in florida, Soumitra's cousin. The best part have a good friendship with Swarup and will send him a gift. Perhaps a watch.

will put some pics here too, my christmas in Chicago.. the christmas tree in daley plaza, the downtown and few more.

Saturday

Last night was fun, me and Win (my friend from Burma) has a good new year dinner. Since we were not together during the vacation, we had to celebrate. So we had a good time in my apartment. I cooked dinner while Win came back with cake and drink!

We talked a lot till almost 2 at night. It was good time. This morning i woke up late and watched a good basketball game in TV Conneticut vs Tenesse. It was great.

Back to work and having a fun time here. Pulin's working too. We were hungry and had chips now coke. All seems nice. Having a good time. Wuhoo!!!!

Wuhoo

I am happy. My home is perfect.

Got a roomie and shes nice. We share the same hobbies, so hopefully things will be fine. Best part we both want our privacy. so, we split the apartment trying to find our space. Shes moving in tonight after her work.

As for me, I am enjoying the space that i have carved for my self. Its compact and ME! Now cant wait for my classes to start. I am excited.

Hungry and got to eat!!!!!!!! I am happy, very happy and hope this year i can stay as i am right now.

2006

Happy New Year!

I am back in my place and my city Oklahoma. With all the vacation over now, it was good. All the fights and disagreements seems so silly now. No matter what I know love is perhpaps the greatset emotion ever thought of.

But it is good to be back home, to your own place, sit on the couch and sip the coffee. Nothing could be better. Back to my life. The tough one but it keeps me happy!

Rest later, just came in and couldnt wait to write.
