A rise from the ashes...

And just when u thought that this blog is surely dead, I rise again from the ashes (tada!) showing my head and chirping again like a phoenix...
You might ask where I was all these months( speaking directly from my fantasy world where you visited this place every week religiously, pining away, hoping for an update). The truth is there was so much happening that didn't know what to write...since past one year I have been staying away from home (ya, i am a big girl now :p ) and carrying on my own.. Learnt to cook( thankfully the cooking genes aren't lost out on me) learnt so many things about people, how to pretend( apparently an important thing, used in dealing with 99% of the population..1% you call family and friends :)  basically I have grown up, though still a lot to go..but a start it is!

It all started exacly an year ago, when I decided to go for a corporate training in Trivandrum. I was the sole one from my college, didn't know anybody and knew the upcoming journey will be a different experience. I just wasn't ready to go away from my home though( it is difficult once you spend 23 years of your life eating home food, outside food becomes less and less palatable), also the thought that you are going alone and the familiar faces are not going to be there just makes you a litle apprehensive. Anyway, it turned out to be a rollercoaster which I thoroughly enjoyed.
The most knowledge that you gain while living alone is not about the world, it is about "yourself". It acts as a mirror in showing you your true personality,
 limits, patience, and character. It throws you into a world where nobody knows you and tests your ability to form bonds, to hold out on your own. Whether you are a person everybody likes to be around or someone from whom everyone runs away. As it turned out, it taught me a number of things about myself. My positive points, things I need to work upon, it was an education I needed in order to truly know myself.

I made a few special friends, some passing acquaintances, and met a great many people who were just there at that place and time to be a part of my story.
So keep checking this resurrected blog as I share more about my experiences. :-)

P.S.- After seeing the enthralling beauty of Kerala, I can surely say it is definitely God's own Country :)
