I am very much excited. Finally the day of my journey to home is just one day ahead. Am eagerly looking forward to join my family. would to like share some of my experiences in last few days. Some are really touching..
Residence INN provides evening snacks (dinner) till 7.00 PM on three days. I was just late for this on wednesday and they were winding up. One of the waitresses there, a black girl, came and told me politely that she can arrange a plate for me. This was a pleasant surprse . I had informed her abut me being a veggie. It turnd out that she is veggie too. After a while she got me the plate neatly arranged with two cheese burgers with vegetables and chips. I observed that she had a nose ring and asked her if she is Indian. She said her father is Indian from Guyana and mother is black. The burgers are fresh and tasted yummy. We call in India “Annadaata Sukhi Bhava”.
The other day, I was looking around for the fedex shop near to our Office which I had previously discovered. On the way , I met a black girl wearing uniform and she asked me if any help is needed. She contacted over phone and gave me the address. She had a genuine smile and I asked her about how they manage those several pleates on the head. She told me that it helps her in avoinding hair fall on shoulders and she unweaves once in 3 months.
Yesterday was my daughters’s birth day and I terribly missed her. Wanted to send her a gift through one of these sites. I spent an hour searching for the right site who are located in Pune and does same day delivery. Finally I zeroed in one, placed the order for a Teddy bear and went to sleep. The first thing I did in the next morning was to search my mailbox for e-mail on delivery confirmation. I got one and it says, the pune shop ran out of stock and they could not do delivery and asked me if I want any other item to be sent. They didn’t give me list of available stock of teddies. Really felt bad. By that time It was too late.
That’s it. Many more things to write…Next time..
