city dreams

On a rather lazy Saturday afternoon, Pinoo and me on a whim of fancy took a tram journey from Gariahat depot to Esplanade. The tram ride was splendid. The rumbling of the engine, the cool breeze blowing against our faces and the sheer excitement of exploring the city anew. In fact, earlier in the day i bought this tiny handbook on a bus that contains all possible travel routes in the city. It is very informative and a great way to discover the city we love. We got off at Esplanade and walked around Dalhousie Square. I loved the sense of history that engulfs you, the imposing colonial architecture that transports you in time. It's a shame how we neglect our heritage and destroy it in the name of real-estate development. I really hope the World Heritage Status conferred on B.B. Bag will help in restoring some of the most grand and gorgeous buildings one can every see. We walked and walked till our feet ached, got lost in tiny alleyways, eat sumptuous street food and marvelled at the little delights of life. Although we were out and about for a few hours, this was one of the best times we've shared together in our hardpressed lives. This city never disappoints, warmly embracing you when you least expected. We are happy lovers in the City of Joy.

realisation

The past few months have been quite uneventful. I cannot distinguish between one day and another. My life has become compartmentalised into work on weekdays and play on weekends. I know this is inevitable but does it really have to be??!! I feel blah-blah at the end of each day, brain-dead and unconsolable.I know i'm not a particularly happy person at this moment in life. It's just the way i am and I find it disturbing. I definitely need a change. The lure of a new job, the bright lights of a new city and maybe the thrill of seeking new friends. Maybe.
