So Long, and Thanks for All the Fish - II

It is my last night in town. I was at the alumni-fresher meet of my would-be alma mater, and that’s when it hit me. I will indeed be leaving behind all my friends, my beloved city and everything, to start a new life, in a far away hamlet, located off the city of nabobs. I made new friends, was given a new nick-name, which I fear will stick with me for the rest of my life.

........

B’lore has been exceptionally kind to me, and on my last evening, it blessed me with precious rain. How much I will miss this, I cannot explain.

........

The last few days have been kind of crazy, with me running helter-skelter to complete some formalities, or to finish a chore. I also ended up doing things that I have not done ever, but always wanted to do. A walk in Lalbagh under an overcast sky was prominent in the list.

........

I hope to finish my packing, and go cheer my friends, who are running the Sunfeast 10K tomorrow. Lord bless their souls.

Au revoir, les enfants...
