Diwali

Yes its another testimonial...Life takes you through so many paths, teaching you how to cope withchallenges, sometimes u crumble, sometimes you get back up and walk.There are moments that catch you and you drown yourself in feelings.Today I feel like I miss my country, the buzz, the attraction, theshopping season, the sweets, the joy, the lights and the trill. HK issilent, its just another day here, not one seems excited aboutanything and most boring its not even a holiday. I miss my friends, i know there are there, but not here wid me, not here to laugh with, nothere to hug... I miss my family, the little joys and smiles. Somepeople jus make life worth living... I miss all those people.Before I left for HK I could not wait to get out, Meera... you knowhow much I partied, I went out every single day, life was busy and Iwanted more time. Stangely even in HK I want more than 24 hours, thedeadlines, the assignments, the job search, the competitiveness, thelanguage barrier, the food issues are some of the challenges I facehere. There are times that everything around you make u feel like yourworld is falling apart, but there are so many things that you have to do that you just keep moving thoughts away. Definately this is not aneasy life, its challenging but its beautiful.The flip side is, we have a great time despite all this, classes incentral are an excuse to party...and now is when we party hard...till5-6 am...the parties here are crazy, you jus keep movin in groups fromone club to another, the Indians here glare at you cuz your wid abunch of white people. lol...some people even strangely get vocalabout their thoughts, n I jus snap back like dude they are my classmates...haha... Talking about parties, yes on campus we have our very own uni bar... we have our get together sessions here... its mad fun.HK itself is wonderful, we went for the Halloween party at Ocean Park.There were 7 scary houses...the ques were never ending but it wasworth it. The monsters pop out from no where, scare the crap out of u.Going on all those fun rides wid your class mates, the power dropwhich drops u from about 100 ft...fish i missed my beat there. Staringthat the acquarium, the color ful fish..the jelly fish..aweeeeeeeeeits gorgeous. I loved it. Another weekend we went on this junk boat trip, 80 of us on this boat...singing, drinkin, dancing... got tonsof attention from a german :P quite a good looker :) i jus have tomention...haha. The boat trip was on til 1am then we had to gopartyin...lots of bottoms ups... he he... Well its all good...I just hope i get a good internship soon... andclasses take it easy.
