An update

It's been a while since i gave my blog some lovin and there have been a lot of changes in my life. So i thought i'd give it a quick update.

Some of the things that I love about my new life are:
a.) For the first time in my life, I've become a geek. I come first in my class and everybody thinks i'm boring. My teachers know me better than my classmates, which trust me, is a good thing.
b.) I made my first trip to NYC. And it was AMAZINGGG! Now I know what Becky Bloomwood was talking about!! Oh, and even though i bloody hate shopping, I wished I could live in the H&M in Manhattan.
c.) I've FINALLY found some organic food stores and vegan restaurents.
d.) My biggest achievement has been my tryst with the library. I spend about 3 hours everyday and try to read a book a day.
e.) I walk about 2 miles and that's good excercise I guess.
f.) I am still in love with Andy Garcia.
g.) And i went to this local metal concert that was insane.
h.) Saravana Bhavan. Need i say more?
Still:
a.) There are way too many numbnuts around me.
b.) I don't have too many people to talk to in college apart from a disturbing nympho, a loser gujju and a 20 year old with the worst fucking accent ever.
c.) I miss all my friends and family back home. Without Cally, David, Dirk, Diana, my Sundays will never be the same again.
d.) Most of all, I hate NJ and I miss Goa. I miss eating out, the cheap red wine, the beaches, the hottest hippies to have ever walked on the planet, and Ingo's saturday night market-the best place ever.
I know I came here knowing all too well that I was leaving my heart behind. All those amazing days that I had are just memories. But from all this I take strength because I know I will go back again. And I will be home again. Till then, I will at least have the person who made Goa what it is to me.
