Need a vacation

This year has gone by fast and it had a lot packed in it too. New job-surgery-relationships-passport application-new church and the list goes on... I don't think I really got a break. I know I went to Goa for a few days in September, but I did not get to relax. I am looking forward to the end of this month though. I have blocked leave from  25th -1st Jan and I have taken a couple of days off before :)

Hoping to celebrate my birthday with a friend in Mumbai and then later travel to Bangalore for Christmas. Right now I desperately need a change of place and people. I am literally counting each day. Hoping that this trip would be refreshing and a good start to 2014 :)

Relaxed!!!!!

Last week was probably one of best week I have had for ages!!! I made a trip down to Goa with my sister to meet some good friends. They are more like family to me:) The vacation was so perfectly timed that I came back thoroughly refreshed and rejuvenated.

Goa is beautiful in the rains...I know u can't go much to the beach or shop around. But after having a crazy hectic schedule here in Pune, the last thing I wanted to do in Goa was run around sight seeing. Was staying in Porvorim in a really neat bungalow. It was constructed many years back, so it kinda had an old feel to it. Loved sitting near the window and reading and watchin it rain outside. This trip definitely did good to my health. 

The highlight of my vacation were the kids. The family that i was stayin with had 4 kids, ranging from a 6yr old to a one yr old. So u can imagine the energy levels in that house:) I got so  involved in their schedules (be it swimming, or taekwondo, or even their sleep timings) that i forgot that I will be goin back soon:( The one yr old was the cutest...She loves to eat  and eat and eat .And well after all that eating guess wat babies loooove to do??? Poop.. I was tired changing her diapers...But it was a joy in itself. I think I was just so happy doin somethin totally different from my normal routine, I accepted all that came my way :)

I know it goes without sayin but the sea food in Goa is amazing. Being an avid fish lover, i was in paradise :) Love the prawns and sausages( you get wonderful pork sausages). Ate loads of chocolate and ice cream and I came back gaining some weight, which I don't mind coz that's what vacations are for!!!

Somethin that I have resolved to do after this trip, is to try and take a vacation regularly. Hopin that I can do it, coz I know it does good to my body and mind:)

Holiday time!!!

I know I have not been that great in updating my blog… was busy with work for a few weeks n then I had the diwali holidays…. So I thought I might as well write something today. My holidays went pretty well. It was a good relaxin time.. even though I did not go out of station it was good just to be at home. Mom dad had been out so it was fun.. I spent my time reading, watchin movies(which I don’t get to do much coz of my crazy schedule), eating some yummy treats(as it was diwali had a lot of faraal).. so basically I just lazed around… to sum it up I had a relaxed time…

Need a Change!!!

I don’t know wats wid my mood today…all I want to do is sleep… I think I need a vacation…I feel so worked up lately…even though I get enough sleep at night I never get up fresh in the morning…I think i need a vacation…I just feel like packing my bags and making a trip to a cool place..maybe a beach or sumthin…and just be there for a few days…no one around…sometimes it good just to be by yourself and do some thinking.. I think I need it right now…it might actually refresh me.. I feel the daily environment that I am in is so dull and boring that its kinda havin an effect on me…I know I should not blame the place or the situation…but I have seen it in my life..i am better off when I am around people who are a little lively…anyways hope I feel better by the end of the day.. lookin forward to my weekend..
