happy times

The last 2 weeks have whizzed by me. M visited us after two long years. And her visit ended before a blink of the eye.

God knows how time went by. I had taken a few days off. Most part of the past fortnight was spent in Bengaluru, doing the things i liked. Shopping at Commercial Street, eating chats(i prepared something really nice and yummy!), spending time at home with M, father and mother, talking in loud tones...

I had a hard time convincing everybody that i had become quiet. I stopped. Who cares! When the entire family met after quite some time. It needed loud yells, laughter, quarrels, fights, smiles, tears...... to celebrate the occasion. As one can obviously guess, i provided the noise.

It was wonderful, that one week that i spent in her company. My parents forgot how days passed. Everyday was a Sunday, according to my father!

Now, i've to rush back to my earlier schedule at Mysore. Those long-distance phone calls begin, once again.

guess M is your sis. if i am right then meeting sibling after a long gap for u and offspring for your parents must be real thrill. As your dad said as long all of u were together everyday was a sunday as all are together.
anyhow happy u enjoyed a full week and back to your campus for continuing your journey and certianly your home sickness must have come down after almost nearing a year
all the best to you
