The Social Week!


What a week! Socializing galore! From outings with individual friends to social gathering with people from 7-8 countries, to send-offs, to treats and more partying, it's been one heady end-of-semester celebration! (And more to come! And my semester is technically not even done yet, haha!) The most number of people I've met within a week and the most fun I've had in a long time. Always great to be with friends!

Some bond over drinks, some over movies, some over games, some over philosophy, some over bitching (:P), there are so many facets to just how much you can connect with someone. It's amazing how so many of these outings weren't even planned; single pings, sudden whims, and off we went! Impromptu fun at its best! Some of them were times when I just woke up with nothing much to do (yeah that seems to be happening a lot lately, ignorance about work I say, bah it's summer!) or was down for seemingly no reason, and bam! Someone would call and drag me out.

I write this post just to say thanks to all the wonderful people I spent the past week with. It's truly a blessing to have so many friends and folk that care, when you're so far away from home. And some moving onto face greater adventures, I wish them the best! Thank you for being a part of my life, your presence makes it colorful. Cheers!

Honestly, I am glad I met you just in time when I had bid adieus to one of my friends who I believe helped me not just realize my goals but also facilitated my getting there! I am thankful to God for giving me this great, fascinating opportunity to bond with folks like you who are really so special to me today...
P.S: I am not always so effusively emotional, but you managed to hit the sensitive side of me, Sam!

Aww thanks so much SRK! I'm glad I met you too! It's always heartening to have friends who really believe in me more than I can ever do in myself. And you're one such support system to me! A million thank yous! :)
