Satyam's Award & My First Snowfall....

I was thrilled to hear some good news last week that I have won some Awards from Satyam...Motivating…isn’t it? Yea…sometimes a bit of acknowledgment for your hard work helps to refuel the engine…and to get ready for the long battle ahead!Nevertheless, I couldn’t attend the function in Hyderabad, as I am stuck here in USA. Got a bit upset to miss out a grand party with folks!!

Lonely I am as always, slowly, a kind of depression was about attack me then, the first heavy snowfall of the year had just touched down (or, at least I think it was; I've been in Groton, USA nearly all November. Who knows what weather I missed?),which is primarily exciting because it’s essentially my first big snowfall ever in USA. Granted, I was around last winter in Europe, but I was a year younger to feel what I could experience now. This is certainly the first time I have ever been aware of a snowy bright emotion. When the flurries began I went outside to see and feel and resemble, then came back inside where for the next few hours, stood by the window and squawked with excitement at the inches of snow accumulating. Once there were a few inches on the ground, I decided to combine the romance of a first snowfall with my desperate need to chill out loneliness with freezing emotions.

Fortunately, my cold weather instincts have been brightened by my stay in Eastern America. I tried but failed to process the fact that this was not a romantic snowfall (by my single hood!!!! lolz..) with huge wet flakes drifting slowly down from a nearly invisible sky. This was more of the driving wind, gray sky, turning to icy freezing rain variety. Stairing at one block down the road I was enjoying in home with a mug of hot chocolate, or at least with the heater blaring in Days Inn.

But...I loved every minute of it; I got introduced to the joys of not only seeing snow, but walking in it and… ohhh...re-gathering me n my joy-hood being appreciated n for the party with my buddies that I had missed out last week. My cheeks are still a little numb, but these moments make it all worthwhile !!!!
