Goodbye is the hardest word
The time has come to bid adieu and i feel terrible. Its been a year in london now and iam surprised that iam saying these words - i will miss my little world that i formed here in London. In december 2006 when i came here for the first time, mind you it is my first ever trip abroad i felt like fish out of water (ah how clieched i sound) anyways but one year is one helluva time to actually start liking and getting used to the city. The city really got onto me. London made me spend a lot of quality time with myself, helped me to reembark my interets. With the internet at my diposal i was able to blog all over again, something i never did after i got married. London made me more independent in a lot of ways, i knew ways to keep my self busy not expecting my husband to be there for everything. Me and my husband enjoyed our stay totally, going out to movies at odd times, eating out, going for jogs etc. London made me learn cooking, with none to help me i turned to net for help. Today i can say very proudly that my culinary skills have really improved, especially the fact that i can make round soft chapathis. I could watch Friends, sex and hte city,desperate housewives.I also had a lot of time to learn lalitha sahasranamam, vishnu sahasranamam, i guess i became more religious after coming here. I started reading the 'Bhagavath Gita'. In short i got so addcited to my life here in london. Now the time is nearing and i feel so terrible. Life is not going to be the same back in bangalore. With the traffic jam, pollution, never ending noise of the city iam going to miss London even more. But then thats reality one day or the other i have to go back to that life. That is our life, this is just a phase. I have 2 more months to go and iam going to make the most of it. But when i leave London iam sure iam going to leave a part of me behind.
