Day 124: Under-Speeding is also a thing!


This is the first entry of my blog. So don't go crazy looking for Day 1 because sometimes, it is okay to not be so perfect. It is okay to be starting with Day 124. For me it is. I did not start the blog until I got enough motivation for it. I procastinated. I take the blame!

Something very interesting I found today is "Under-Speeding". Actually, wait. I didn't find out about it. Kailash did. Under-speeding means you cannot drive below a certain limit. If the speed limit is 50kmph, you can only keep your speed from 35kmph to 50kmph. Boring stuff, I know. But important when you are driving an automatic car on the opposite side of the road, with the driver's seat in the left instead of right, in a place 6500 kilometers away from home.

Life is not the what it used to be 124 days ago. Back home, I would be chilling with my family, having a cup of chai (tea) while sitting in the garden, swinging on the hinchka (swing) at this time. Now, I am back from office, making this entry, while Kailash prepares tea for the two of us. The two of us. Just the two of us. 

Did that sound sad? Because I am not. Honestly I am not too thrilled about it either. Being just the two of us has its own good and bad. One can romanticize it as much as one would want to, but I still think it has its cons. You don't have anyone else to share your thoughts, feelings, ideas, food, stories with. And what when you are pissed at him? Well, if we were home, maybe I could probably be alone for sometime and cool off after an argument but here? With just 60 square meters of space and nowhere else to go, it's better to hug it off.
