Time really flies. From Hyderabad Biryani to Delhi Samosa….(life is so tangy, spicy and yummy). It has been three days here but I am still so much hyderabadi at heartJ
But yes these three days have been like a flash back for me, visiting my old ancestral house at Naraina Vihar to flashing malls at different places in Delhi/NCR, things and people have changedJ.
I am very emotional about few things and my home at Naraina that is like a chocolate cake with a red cherry is so much close to my heart. I have spent 7 years in that house and those years were years of struggle and just struggle. The place taught me to be humble and calm but today when I stand and see my house, I have changed tooJ
I think change is the spice of life and my life wanted me to change. When I looked at my house, I scanned through myself from top to bottom and I see a different lady who lost oodles of pounds, who is now no more into salwars and who is practical towards life. But then when I closed my eyes, I could remember that innocent girl who used to walk to her school in a skirt that can surely touch her ankles. I could see a girl who used to walk from college to tuition classes to earn extra money for her education. I could see a girl who left her home in search of jobs during her graduation so that she can fund her education. I did everything from sales girl job to tuitions, from making websites to event management to accomplish my studies. But the moment, I open my eyes, I see a fancy home that is just now the way I left it. All the people around my old home have either shifted or could not recognize me. As I said I have changed too. A thin 32 years old lady in her blue jeans and black top is definitely not the same as they saw me 6 years back when we sold our home for a bigger or maybe better place.
But I am glad my neighbours could identify me. A coconut burfee (Indian sweets) remind me of how badly I need to explore food when I am in Delhi. Who Kahata hain, Delhi aaye aur mithai nahi kayee.
Meeting school and college friends have added one more feather to my cap.
So I decided and my decision is still the same, I will munch on all the specialties of Delhi. I have tried some of the things that are not on my diet chart. I had kulfi and kulchas with makhani dal to lavish creamy paneer. My soul says ‘sinful food is good when on vacation’. I am sure, I have gained 2 kgs but I will workout once I am back. I will workout like a maniacJ
I am missing Hyderabad and my classes (definitely, kickboxing also).
Today, I am heading to Amritsar. My dream to see Golden temple will come true. I have no wishes or desires to ask God but just one request that I hope my God knows and will fulfill it. I have a big shopping list that I need to complete like any virgoJ
I am excited and happyJ
So until I am back….CheerioJ and love you all!
