March 8. 2013


I woke up this morning, getting a call from my father, asking the general questions, and I gave him the practiced answers. Got on the internet, only to realize that the internet connection was no more. So I missed my vlog schedule. Called the call center without any result. Had the usual rice baath at “Nanda Gokula” and met with the Vetrivel owner. I then decided to walk to Kaggi's Bakery, and bought a pretty expensive cake. I haven’t visited that place since 2010 I guess. It surely was a welcome change. Walking back, sent me back a few years, when my shoulders weren’t so weighed down by reality, and general garbage. How I wished I could be transported back in time. Really.
I paid the rent and electricity bill to the landlord, and checked on the internet again after coming up to my apartment. Cleaning was my next chore of the day, something I got myself into recently. When you haven’t cleaned in close to 3 years, and placed yourself into a cocoon, it is quite an uphill task.
In all of this, I felt surprisingly positive, after many days. Kind of feel 19 again.. If that's something. Prejudices took the back seat and I felt like confronting everything all at once. In all of this, I guess the weather has played a certain role. After two days of being damp and soggy, it is quite bright today. The warm sun and the cool breeze is certainly is a delight.
