Getting close to Myself again!!
6 months tada...!! All due credits to my parents and sister-in-law, with out whom i would have been a clumsy cribbing housewife!! Anyways here i am, meeting so many new people, living with roommates, paying and managing all bills by myself.. not bad right..! Life teaches a lot! Now the journey around the globe has been worth it !! Glad things are smooth! :) touchwood!!
I stay here in Framingham which is 30 minutes from Boston. Its a part of greater Boston are which consists of about 203 towns. Best part is i'm away from all the hustle bustle of a city but i get to enjoy it with just a 30 minute ride. This also gives us so many places to visit. Ummm.... everytime he came here we made it a point to do some activity. White mountains, Martha's vineyard, Blue Hills hiking. Trust me, I have been to boston just once. Without MM it feels pointless to go out. So basically i don't roam much. But moving to boston has been the best thing that has happened to me in USA. Getting really close to myself again. :)
ATT is benefitting a lot from me because of the innumerable calls i make. Watsapp and Viber are getting me close to my family and friends again. Family time and friends time is never an issue. My grandma asked me if me and Mr hubby talk at-least once in 3/4 days and i told i told her i call him 3/4 times a day. Have just got too used to him. Missing him has become an integral part of my day.Give basic updates about day, ask if he ate (which he always answers with a Sub), bug him a lil', make plans as to when to meet next blah blah. I would never ever advice staying apart to couples who have lived together for some time. Its a whole new void in each's life, especially in US where you don't even have your family with you.
There are sooo many Indian restaurants nearby :))). A temple 15 minutes from home. A touch of home food now and then and visit to temple keeps me happy here. There are so many indians in this area. And hence lot of options and facilities for indians. There's indian grocery available and so now attempting to cook with new vegetables. Actually the ghar-foodie (MM) would have been super happy here! Fresh vegetables! :)
Living with roommates is indeed fun. Not fun as in fun but its a different experience. Glad i have great roomies. We cook together sometimes, chat and gossip endlessly but equally respect each others space and privacy. I have heard people in East coast are little arrogant than the west, but by personal experience Boston is more welcoming than New York. I can somehow relate my current life to my life in bangalore and thats one of the reasons i like being here.
Work is all fine but gets very hectic and unexplainable sometimes but learning to cope that also. More over i had my final semester project to submit. So till April had many things on mind. This is my first full fledged job, so theres a lot of things to learn. Basically lot of non-technical things to learn. But its all going good so far and has been a pleasurable experience too. Having parents here was one of the other awesome things that happened to me here. We four had good time but it would be great if they could have stayed here for more days. Fun seeing dad house arrested :)
Lots of things yet to happen, lot of problems yet to be solved, lot of decisions yet to be taken. Staying together is one of the highest priorities but nothing seems to work out at all. Hmmm.. Time's the answer for everything. Hoping for the best :)
