The Missing Link
Things have been too fast for me. I haven’t posted for ages now. Do I miss it? Yes, I guess so. 1 month. Yep, Its been one month, may be more than that. Apy is back in India. The project got over and my company decided to send me back as there was nothing more to do there. From the day I got the news of my return, my mind is in a transit state. This state has always been an uncomfortable state which means that I am on move, which means I am not settled and neither is my mind. So, with an unsettled mind, I don’t think I could blog. As a matter of fact, I even stopped reading blogs. Don’t ask me why. I don’t know the answer. I was just unsettled and uncomfortable.
I decided that I will resume my blogging once I am settled again. Lame excuse! I know. There is no doubt that I was happy to come back to India but this transit and this change has always made me go crazy. With this change came another hassle, packing. I have hated packing since the day I packed for the first time but as usual I didn’t have any better option. Packing as such does not give me a problem but keeping it under the allowed free check in baggage weight does. I was seriously not in a mood to pay 4400 JPY (44 USD) per kg for extra weight and then I got the weirdest return ticket. My trip from Tokyo to Bangalore was via Bangkok, Delhi and Mumbai. You don’t have to be a rocket scientist to guess that it was Air India. After a lot of struggle, I was able to convince my manager to drop me at Delhi and give me a break for 15 days. I don’t know how but it worked and I was in Delhi on 3rd September with a vacation in my hand till 18th September. Well!! I was happy and excited.
Delhi trip was amazing. Initial few days were spent in visiting friends and relatives in neighboring states. The trip was fun. After a long time, I spent some quality time with family. But where did these 15 days go, I still have no clue about that.
Then came to Bangalore. I think aliens have replaced humans here as my knowledge says that humans survive on oxygen but after looking at the pollution level here, I wonder if there is any oxygen left in the air. Yes, may be I have also become a non human. The pollution level is amazingly high. May be I am over reacting.
Still thinking whether to stick to where I am or to move on somewhere else, to a different company, to a different work environment and yes definitely to a better package. The questions are still unanswered. It will take a few days for me to figure out the answers to these questions.
P.S. : I wanted to say Thank you to all those who stuck around. Thanks for being there for me.

Apy boyo,
Good luck with the new plans that you are making about switching jobs. Hope the drifting stops & u drop anchor soon. Take care.
Hey, are you glad you are back in India? Do you miss Japan?
I heard about the air pollution in India. My biggest concern is, there is still no comprehensive strategy to fight pollution. So it's only going to get worse, so get used to it ;)
And, yeah, we are all here for ya.
Welcome welcome !!
Do post regularly now. Will look forward to reading about your interesting incidents.
