I'm going home!! Yes! After 6 lousy papers I'm going home for a well deserved break, although the reason for me deserving the break can still be questioned, but who really cares?
The frustrated engineering student in me is feeling free today. With that, he completes 7 semesters of a rigorous BTech degree.. With just a semester more to go before the ultimate freedom, here I am, looking forward to a good time in the countryside... Far away from the world of Sensors and Transducers, Electronics and Control Systems.. For I would be in my home, walking on my soil, breathing my air, drinking my water....
The thought of going home is always so very different. So different that its a step ahead of what we call inexplicable... For till the day you leave for your place, you would have assimilated what all you missed being at home and finally when that moment arrives when you pack your bags, say a big "BYE" to all your friends, and finally sit in the train, you realize, despite all that's not-good about home can be pardoned. The place where I'd be staying, my village, has no net cafes, no malls, fast food eateries or coffee bars. But there is a vast stretch of paddy field, which looks like a green carpet under the early morning sun, twinkling with dew on its blades. There are mango and jackfruit trees with swings of rope, where we played as kids (and we still do).
Ok ok!! Me not getting into the "My Village Greatest" tourism promotion scheme. I guess I better get going... Got a train to catch..
Bye for now.. Blogging is going to take a back seat for sometime now... Ciao!

U that sure sem 7 is cleared eh? Such confidence is bad in ICE!! :P
Modern society has effected sufficient intrusion, that ppl like us can't imagine life without the "amenities" you have mentioned - your village is free from.
I often desire to take some time, to put things into perspective, time away from my normal haunts, away from e-mail and computers and the web, away from all the yammering, posturing and postulating. Its a bliss!
Hope you spend your holidays - peacefully away from all this :)
All the Best for your results.
Aah! Freah air, clear sky, green fields...paradise!
