Delhi Diary 4

So I am in my new apartment in a lovely locality overlooking a lot of greenery. Calls of the peacock rouse me from sleep. But hey! All is not hunky dory. There is a problem of water shortage and water leakage. Yes, both. But it's a proper house. Now I look forward to creating my space and that is very important for my own sanity. If you are wondering where exactly I'm live, it's between the ring road and the outer ring road behind the DU South Campus. Now looking forward to some lowering of temperature... Am sure you are too if you are in Delhi. Another great thing - Reaching my workplace in 30 minutes instead of an hour and more!Good thing coz the autos are going to hike their rates to more than double!

A home once more!

I've been in Delhi for 10 months and have been staying in Dwarka with family. Well, this was a temporary arrangement. Now, we're shifting to a permanent house (which means 3 to 4 years). It has been like living on a railway platform, almost everything each one of us wanted to do was pushed behind for later, when we would shift to our permanent house! Aaaaah! Have boarded the train and am fast tracking towards my destination which happens over the next week, and settling down of course takes more weeks. But that's fun and that's what I am used to, having been born in such a milieu.

So, do houses mean anything to me?? No they don't pull at my heartstrings, since I've moved in and out of so many. What I remember vividly though are certain memories, scenes, dejavu, scents, colours, views...Also it's a challenge to put our entire belongings into four rooms and then arrange them once more into a one and half suite!

Will definitely post the view from my new home. Wish me luck!
