Me + Bangalore + my wake up mantra

Heya peeps!!

Writing in the blog after such a long time.

Well, I'm in Bangalore right now. It's a pretty place with cool weather except that the traffic sucks in here.

I haven't been to a lot many places yet but plan to very soon. Due to my new job, I had to shift otherwise I still miss Bhubaneswar. 

Since the time, I have come in here... I encountered so many new things. It can be termed as both good and bad too. 

I'm glad that my whole family came to Bangalore to escort me or else I would have missed them like hell. We had stayed in this hotel named Goyal Residency in Electronic City which was so good. The ambience and food was perfect. I still remember the day we left the hotel, it was pretty gloomy because my family went back to Bhubaneswar and I was literally shattered.  Plus I had developed this very close bond with the staff people in the hotel, lol you won't believe but I bid everyone goodbye while I left. 

The moment I left the hotel door, I felt that this is the beginning of a very tough journey. I had never stayed away from family and now I have to do that on my own terms in a new city on my own income!! Gosh... too many new things at a time.

And then came the first day of my job in Wipro. Electronic City has so many lanes before we would reach the Wipro Gate. I knew the way around but in the middle I somehow lost my way and instead of walking for 250 m, I walked for nearly 2 km to reach my office that day. It surely will be memorable for me forever. I was very nervous as to how the office and team mates would be, more importantly my manager. But gladly, it all went fine. My team mates are pretty good.

And surprisingly I'm making new friends every day. Be it at the bus stop, PG or my new office.

It's lovely to see that there are so many people like me who are new to this city and are also in search of friends just like me. Oh and I also forgot to mention about my roomie in my new PG, Priyanka. She's very sweet, she comes daily from office and asks how my day was, and she keeps talking about what happened to her in her office. No matter how tired we are, we talk and share. And it's lovely to feel that how I quickly I bonded with her within 4-5 days. She is leaving for Chennai this week, and I have asked her to bring some yummy banana chips. Eagerly waiting for her to come back and the chips too. *giggles*

Bangalore has in fact taught me a lot many things, about people, how to tackle situations no matter how hard it is. Moreover I'm becoming more self-dependent. I like it that way. 

The only complain that I have is that I have become completely dried out of my creative juice. I need to renew it. The field in which I am involved right now involves a lot of sitting in front of the desktop and doing monotonous job. I know how much I resent it. But this is just one experience, one feather in my cap. 

I have kind of promised myself that I'll write more often from now on. Because when I was in Bhubaneswar, I had Ritu to share everything with but now, it's all lonely all over again. At times in the office, I just have my copy to share my feelings with. So I kind of have an idea to write in my blog at least twice-thrice a month about anything or everything!!! :D

My wakeup mantra would be start the Dark Soul sequel again. The work has been halted for such a long time, so I better buck up and bring back Tom and Kay in the game. *winks*

I have also started my weekend animation tutorials too (my longtime dream) and random doodles during office. I have also decided to not get upset by small things and maintain a positive energy to reborn my creativity again.

Hoping for many more opportunities to come this year. 

Cheers to many more days of learning and rejoicing!!!
