This is winter baby!!!!!

Snow, snow and more snow. That's all you can see these days in Amherst, MA. Hell I was wrong when I thought it was winter already in November. Right now, all you can see is 4-5 feet piles of snow where it's not been cleared (basically everywhere apart from roads and sidewalks. And where there are no heaps, there lies a steady sea of shin to knee deep snow. And to top it all, it has to rain in the midst of a major snow session to give ice frosting on the trees. The silver lining is that the days are getting longer (from 4 pm darkness to 5 pm darkness :P).

From the sweltering sun in India to the oceans of snow in Amherst, it's all been happening for me over the last week.

It's all been happening!!!!!

Writing, taking a layoff, writing more, another layoff...........such is life!
But to say the least, it's all been happening over the last couple of months. I got through very nicely with my courses.....no mishaps there. I visited India over the winter break, where it was very very weird in the beginning.......can't imagine why it can be so awkward to go back home, well you just have to be there to know how it feels. I took to a headshave from my shoulder length hair, and stupefied a few people!!!!!! As part of the India trip, visited heaven on earth-GOA. That I have to say, was the high point of the trip. I finally saw a totally obedient dog-they really irritate me when they call the shots!!!!!
All said and done, I am really glad to be back here in Amherst, the vacation had gone to boring proportions; guess I'm tuned to keeping myself occupied with something or the other. Since I could barely sleep 20 mins. on the 15 hour flight to India, I would say that the 5 hours of sleep i got on the way back was a blessing. Then the busride from New York to Amherst......I'd rather stay out of the travel details!
One thing I noticed in India was the lack of tuning to the current hits on the Hindi music scene. And that was really weird not only for me, but for a lot of people around me- Guru not able to identify songs, I mean people went to such lengths as tell me that I'd lost the one talent I had-(:p I showed them in time of course, that it's not only hard but impossible to match my range of talents--------you know I'm talking about you!!!!!!!!!)
I got hold of some songs that had happened over the last 6 months and for sure, some really good music had happened over this period!!!!!! Kept some people happy, and now I'm, back to my classicrock and oldies!!!!!!!! And always will be!!!!!!!!!!
Anyways, i think I'll crash now. The entire travel thing has left me feeling like trampled grass!!!!!! God bless people.
