Just read my previous entry and realized i sound like i am moving to a different planet. Actually, we just moved to a neighbhouring state. One which amazes me because :
1. A minimum of two cleavages appear in the daily newspaper (remember how our parents had to FORCE us to read the newspaper...well our generation will have to HIDE it from our kids)
2. A fellow parent at jun's new school moans about not having a maid although she has a driver, a cook, AND a 'helper' boy. she doesnt have a job AND they are a NUCLEAR Family. Talk about a tough life.
3. Everybody speaks different languages
4. I found out that best friends are always the best...even if you are getting back together eons later.
4. Doesnt matter where you eat, the food is FANTASTIC!
5. People are either very well turned out or are wearing something that is 'in' and looks totally gross on them
6. Three different people had this to say when i told them we had just moved from coimbatore " Oh, we were also in Chennai for a few years" (hunh???)
7. There are a zillion ways to spend money.
On the flip side,
Jun's school is not as good as his earlier one. UKG will definitely see him somewhere else.
But this place is exciting.
It is new, young and stylish...not to mention expensive.
Here is a toast to Chiranjeevi land. Rajini rules! ;)

Aha! Hyderabad then. Great food. Simple folk. Awful weather.
On another note, I would do anything to move to Goa forever just now.
I'm actually working this week. Horrors.

Still trying to figure out which state you've moved to? Loved the sentence on 'friends' :-)
Aha Hyderabad! I have never been there, although I know people who love that place. Have a great time settling in :)
Ha, have spent time there or rather int he twin city across. Enjoy your time.
BTW driver, cook, helper and a huh.. maid too?? *philosophically* This is where Wodehouse would have remarked, one half of the world doesn't know how the other three-quarters live... or should that be 'the other quarter'?? :P ;)
hey zak..totally with you on the goa front!! its been so long since we lived in a place with a beach let alone lots of beaches. Anyway, whats with the anonymity?
hi there writer...am so glad you brave the word verification ;)
Thanks Roopa...we are having fun :)
Shail ... u r going to hate me after i say this....i could never get myself to read more than one wodehouse. My only connection with wodehouse is that i am madly in love with Dr House (Hugh Laurie) who i believe once played Bertie Wooster. Pl dont stop reading me!!!!
the corporate gypsy life, huh? enjoy!!!
The anonymity is partly because of what jacques lacan said about fantasies.
Ok, in reality its because I dont have a blogger account:)
Zak
