Life in the USA
Its weird how lonliness kills you into writing such sad posts. Thats a cheerful start to an otherwise dismal article....
But anyway, I landed here on the 28th of July, 2008 and ever since I have lived a life of total luxury. Blessed with tons of assignments, millions of projects and eons of hardwork. I wash, I cook, I eat, I code, I attend lectures, I write, I study and then attend more lectures and cook more, wash more and eat more and then when its time to sleep, I wake up again into another cheerful day.
I am so happy, I can hardly explain. I am so happy that I don't want to eat sometimes, its as if appetite suddenly looks up at me and tells me, "you don't need my, why bother?" My dreams are even more cheerful than my actual, living life. I dream of bald guys being tortured in my house, of wild bulls chasing me and of my getting pregnant.... Its so good, I love this life, had always dreamt of it... Its so good that I want it to get over, so that I can understand the value of a horrible life...
My house is a wonderful place to be.. It has lovely lights, and lovely carpets... They are so lovely that I never want to vacuum clean them... And my favorite piece of entertainment... My only friend in the united states... my amazing laptop... with the internet badwidth so high, I have an amazing time... At least the luxury of youtube videos being played without having to wait for them to get buffered...
Life is simply great... I wish it would end now!

your life is so interesting that i feel u can write your own book on it...u r quite a wonderful person, just reading your thoughts make me admire u. it seems u have been at the recv end of too many thing, some due to yoru sweetness and caring nature and others more due to the fact that people generally are more "shrewd"
you could not have dscribed beauty in a more beautiful way...
Aankhen bheegein, toh moti chamkein...
kaajal faile toh pyaara lage,
gusse ki lali jab galon pe bikhre
toh sooraj ki kirnon si kamsin lage..
Actually everyne in US goes through such a life as yours and thats what is called "experience", sweet fruits of labor. i spend few months in NY washing/cooking/working like i had never did before, but it was beautiful. Tiring but beautiful. The walk near the Hudson river (was at NJ) and the cold wind and the fact that for once in life, although for a short time i was "alone" :-) wondering how that was refreshing, because i was away from all the social and family hustle bustle that come as a package with life in India.
dont let it end, there is lot more of love and beauty in the world that meets the eye...
heya...throwing oneself out of the nest and into the "big bad world".. its just a part of the lovely process of growing up.... and dont they say, "what doesn't kill you, makes you stronger..."
so hang in there, girl...
things always work out...
