So far so good...

The initial few weeks after starting the job were really amazing... So many things were happening at the same time, didn't have much time to comprehend everything but I remember being really grateful all the time for every bit of it....
That's the thing with life you either have everything at the same time or nothing at all... The only thing that remained constant was me being mean to V before n after... No arrogance or change in attitude because of the job...!!! Really I was mean even before....
Well, the work is good, I like it but the place, not so much.... This place the more I have gotten to know it the more boring I find it.... Anyway lets not go there, the ugly side of me will start speaking if I did... The good thing is that this city is close to the other awesome cities like Washington DC, New York etc... That seems to be the only consolation.. Haa...
Well, all of plans of eating healthy and losing weight have gone miserably down hill.... I am gonna try and be better at it.... I now have genuine respect for people who have the will power to eat healthy, exercise and not abuse their bodies by overeating.... And, I am talking about celebrities who get paid big "figures" on the basis of their "figure" , I am talking about real people like me... with a job and an emotional eating disorder....
Well, fat shall come and fat shall go....

New Beginings!


2 Corinthians 9:14-15
And in their prayers for you their hearts will go out to you, because of the surpassing grace God has given you. 15 Thanks be to God for his indescribable gift!

On January 28th 2013, I started my new job with much anticipation. Had worked too hard and waited too long for this day. I joined Barclaycard US as a Business Analyst. :)
The first week of work was crazy, less to do with my actual work and more to do with my life around it... Learning to drive on the dreaded I 95 highway where I thought I would be killed even before I got my first week's pay, staying in the hotel by myself for a week and not having anyone really to talk to except Becky... Well, then I moved into my apartment and did a lot of stuff on my own really... It was really good feeling of doing everything on your own but again there is no denying the pain of hypocrisy or irony....
The search for a new church, new couch and new friends lead me to different places none of which I liked as soon as I saw them... But, eventually got all the right ones for me....
Within the first month of moving, i also made my first trip from one city to another alone at 70 miles/hours on an average... Haha... This I feel very proud of... From a girl who never drove 1 year back, to a girl who drives in a small town, to a girl who drives with her heart in her mouth with her husband sitting next to her, on Feb 15th I transitioned into the girl who rips on the left line to reach her destination as soon as possible.... :)
