6th May, 2006:- It all happened that Mr.X in the US Counslate says "Go Home , you will get your visa in another few days." ( Trust me, I was on cloud 9, dancing on the roads of chennai).
Now I did wanted this to happen but not so early. I was in Banglore till the 4th of May and been to Chennai for my visa interview.
Anyways, it all happened. This should have occured atleast sometime in my life and it did, but a little early.
Came back home on the 7th of May, and got bangings, SMS's and emails all scolding me, friends came home running towards me just to kick me. Its all because most of them did'n knew that I was appearing for the visa interview, well people who knew that also joined them just because it was the only time they got to kick me.Well finally its all done.
9th May, 2006:- Exactly twenty years back a kid was born, and now he's on a hightime of his life. Lucky in every damn single field he enters. And that kid now is typing you all this. It was my birthday and my mom calls me and says "CONGRATSSS!!!!!", well I was a little bit shocked. She did gave me my bday wishes long back. But, I was surprised what was this congrats all about, she then says that I get my visa for 5 years. Now I was shocked.
So guys, here starts my NEW LIFE.
31st July, 2006:- It all happened in the mean time : meeting new friends who were coming with me to my university, shopping(well the best part!), having some soccer matches with friends, dance parties, movies, etc.. The day has come when I had to leave that mother land of mine, leave my family behind, friends too(well most of them would join me here), those sweet and bitter memories in the college and school.
My flight was scheduled to fly at 2:00 a.m. ( well its actually 1st of August then). I think I had the best see-off ever. Had a bunch of friends who came driving almost 120kms to see me fly. My relatives, who came travelling in a train all the way from other districts.
It was time and I had to check-In. I was actually excited but not really sad as most of the other students do. Well for me it was like Home-to-Home as I was visiting my lovely, charming and adorable cute sister back in Seatle.
Here starts my journey, into the new and different part of the world where a boy calls his father with his name rather than calling him dad, a place where people are afraid of using human labour, a place where people want every damn single and silly thing on earth to be mechanized, people are afraid of walking on the road just because another person can come and shoot you jus for $5, a place where humans dont even know what the true value of food is and they hardly enjoy their food, a place which is almost the world leader now in almost every field. Well there are many more things about this place which I dont like, but still I am here.
Its the United States of America guys. Well I always wanted to be here and finally I am.
So as the title says " MY NEW LIFE", its shortly just assignments, exams, projects, papers and a little little bit of fun once a while. Wait for my next BLOG entry to know more about this NEW LIFE.
