Adios Austin


My title sends a clue why i've been absent from the bloggin world all this while. I was busy packing and packing and sealing the packs and gearing to move out of austin. It been a combination of excitement and nervousness all thru the session. With 2days for the movers to pick up stuff and 5days to vacate the apartment , butterflies in my tummy are fluttering even faster. To be frank , the very fact that Im going out of austin for goodand not for a vacation struck me when our friends organized a "surprise farewell" for us on saturday night!
It was infact a big surprise as it was a leak-proof planning and we didnt even have a clue..Well that's what is a surprise party -said a friend.

Surprised me n Dileep


However it may be , we leave this place with cartload of memories and basketful of friends. Austin for me is a launch pad for life in the US, and being the first place I lived , I developed a special attachment for the city and the apartment I live in. Never did we change the apartment since Icame here, so these things make me want to cling to the apartment and city. But Life has to move on, for a career or for the need to moe up the ladder...and so we have decided to move. Dileep would have loved to stay back if not for the lack of career choices for me in austin.
Hope this move will bring us more friends at the same time keep in touch with existing friends and enrich our lives.

Thats our austin gang...not all of them as couple of couples are on vacation.
