Recap 2010

My first and last post was in April 2008, that's a bad bad record considering the blogging sphere. But of late the writing bug has again begun to bit me, and what could be a better start than the new year. Hopefully i will maintain this resolution.

Aptly i decided to recap 2010. On first thought i never realised when 2010 ended, till new year eve it was not sinking that a new decade is starting. When I look back, i see some immense happy moments in 2010. Last year started with my best friend giving birth to two beautiful twins. And i realised we have had a long journey from school friends to one of us now a mother, the other preparing to go abroad for further studies. Very few people get a second chance in life and 2010 gave me this precious opportunity. After working for 3-4 years i finally found my calling of studying further and decided to come to London. Never in my dreams had i thought that I will leave Bombay to study abroad, but such is life. I like this constant change in life, it is the best teacher. I am reliving the student life here in Kingston, with new university,new friends, new subjects and yes a new perspective of life. And must say am liking it!!
Looking back I think one of the lovely moments of 2010 was my trip to Nainital with my mother. This also made me realise that we have grown up and time has come to look after our parents. Give them that small joy, some happy moments to cherish. It really feels proud when when you can give them exactly what they want on your own. The week of travel was an excellent break from hectic work life and some precious time spend with my mother. And Pappa - it was the memorable sunday of 5th Sept when we celebrated his 60th birthday. I can still remember happiness on my parent's face. It was also my farewell as I was leaving for London on 13th Sept.
How can i forget Abhi's call to ask if things were fine with me here and now his concern now how am I managing here and curiosity to see my pics :)
Lat but not the least the immense satisfaction I felt when clients appreciated my work while quitting and my treasures - friends that I have left behind in Mumbai. I miss them all but can be in touch with them thanks to FB and Internet. World is indeed a small place. No wonder my parents are liking the new toy - Skype- and want me to come online almost daily :))

Shall take leave on this sweet note , more updates later
