Leaving for Nasik tomorrow for personal work.. Will come back on 5th and perhaps update you more then..
Actually, going to this famous Trayambakeshwar Temple to get some pooja done.. Mr Bajpayee, the well-known and trusted astrologer here had been telling me I'm afflicted with Kaal Sarp Yog..
A kind of planatory configuration that minimises benefit, even when you put in adequate hard work.. that's quite true in my case actually.. Have experienced that since childhood...
So, on 3rd, they will do this pooja which neutralises malefic planets... May be they will ask me to take a dip in the holi Bhadravati.. Im guessing so.. since they have asked me to carry a fresh kurta pyajama and a towel..

Anyways.. The other day I had lots of fun at Funtasia Island.. City's first water park.. Clicked some good pictures too ... shall be uploading..
By the way, remember I told you all my adversities are now over.. And that it seems like mom is here again.. peace and comfort, and the sheer security of having a guardian is here again?
Will elaborate on that more later.. for now, I have my hands full with re-doing the house in Patna.. Im changing the bed... actually remodeling.. plus innumerous wall deco-s and portraits.. most of them of the family's..
And since Im very detailed in such things, say the background, the colour contrasts, which frames to go at what places, how narrow or long should they be, it's consuming good amount of time..
XXX
Then the sofa has gone for repairs.. Changing the orange velvet into sea green!
Plus of-course my selection process for studying abroad.. and other fellowships, for all of which I have been writing endless proposals, relentlessly since January mid..
And the whole new stratagem for a major shift/impetus in career, including of-course, a well-thought of schedule for writing my novel, for which I will be spending two months somewhere in far north; not telling you where exactly..
And once again, the whole exercise of finding myself a feature-writing internship in this far north town.. hopefully at a good newspaper there..
I think that would engage my time more meaningfully.. besides adding to my expertise as journalist.. Every city has a soul and a story emanating from it, don't they?
Looking forward to breathe a new culture, a new ethnicity, a new ethos.. and between them, the common human desire to grow, to be well thought of by others, and become more prosperous than we already are at a given time..
XXX
Then there's also the onus of not letting one aspiration belittle the other, which in turn depends on how good you are at allotting time to your list of activities.. In my case, it is not too easy..
Studying abroad, availing a fellowship programme, gearing up the novel, finding internship in an unfamiliar city, focusing on my present job, redoing the house!
The list is endless, and time is limited.. Hope I do not mess up!
