Three weeks after...
It has been three weeks since I left my home on 7th Jan and came for my MBA. This is the longest I have been away from my family and everything associated with me since April 2006. When I now reflect back at the time when I was at my home I can find so many things that I miss. I know you would say that this is obvious you are bound to miss something which is not there with you. I miss everything about Delhi, India, Home, Office. I miss getting up at 9 in the morning and then cribbing about not getting hot water because there is not electricity. I miss having the sandwich and juice while watching news in the televison. I miss driving my car on the highway and reaching office and many times finding traffic and cribbing about it as well. But some how I used to reach office by 10:30.
Once in office meet everyone, your team and your friends. Discuss the clients mail or its absence and then crib about that as well. I miss having discussions in the team about when is the next time we are going for treat and who is actually giving that treat. Then before you know its already lunch time. Ping roop and geeta to have lunch. Got down with roop to geeta's seat and then head for the cafeteria for lunch(aahhh haaa home food.....). Have discussions about company politics and so many other things. Once done with the lunch, head for the TT room. Play TT till you realize that its too late for you to be here and now you should be at your seat and do some more work :) but in between play some good TT, and many days bad as well. Head back to seat and start the work once again. Work closely with the team and crib about the client's design and decisions. Before you know its already evening and then head for either the dance class or hit the gym. Go home and in between crash at a place to eat something. Reach home and crash on my bed and watch TV(with this I mean cricket/movies/Travel and living). Spend time with Family and have dinner(aahhh haaa home food.....). Crash back in my room and watch more TV and then dooze off to sleep...
