i hate this city..i truly do!!this city can never match the warmth of Kolkata.I am the happiest when i board the flight to kolkata even if it is a for short vacation!!!these are the feelings I had initially in Bangalore...at every damn step that i took in this city i was all the more convinced that i have to update my CV in Naukri so that I can relocate to my city of joy ASAP!!!
few days back,all tired of the city and the low paying & over-stressed job, i was walking down the lane to my home!!!a cool breeze ran through my hair..it touched me and embraced me with passion.I just looked up in the sky and suddenly realized that the city is not that bad also!!with the bad autowalas who can charge any thing from you if they realize that you are not an kannadiga,with the inherent language problem,with the problems of electricity which you'll find absent exactly when you want the greaser on and you have just 10mins in hand for your office bus to honk in front of your house,the city is not all that bad!!at times when your neighbor complains of the late night parties or the casual phone calls that you make on the balcony you'll feel like packing your bags & abscond from the office to reside in the warmth of mom at kolkata but this neighbor's son comes to your rescue when you come back with packets in your hand and dont know how to unlock the door.this small child will make you believe that the city has more to give!!from your health to your microwave shutting down at the middle of night is all your responsibility...the city teaches you how to live...teaches you how to use your freedom in the right way...teaches you how to pamper yourself when in you are all alone in the crowd..!!she makes you realize there are people around you who are lonelier than you also makes you smile when your dhobiwala says "aunty aaj kapda de nehi sakta"!!!i still remember the joy when a small kid asked me "Sister what's the time" since here when your are staying single and alone then your are grown enough to an aunty!!n this city makes you realize that you are a grown up individual who can handle herself alone....this city gives you the charm of missing home and ma all the more...!!the jams which at most times has no reason will definitely make you say that Kolkata was better!!the crowded bus with hanging garden on all women's hair and a stinky floral smell will definitely re-initiate your love for the mom's garden which you conveniently forgot watering!! the city with its unique weather and romantic chill can make you fall in love once again...!!i hardly thought that i would have to plan my cooking while coming back from office but i enjoy it.when utterly pissed off with the utensils to be washed you'll feel great when there is no one to shout at you if you break a glass while washing!!this city can give you good friends who can be your great roommate who will be your all time partner in mischievous activities which would not otherwise do...this city has a lot to give!!
the city is not that bad also..its just that you got to remember that "swalpa adjust madi...this is namma bengaluru"....!!!
