My New Place

This new year begin with a change for me. The change that I initially hesitated for, but gradually I have started kind of liking it.Change is always something that creeps in your life, unwanted at beginning but pleasant when explored. So is, it happened to me, I was in discomfort at very first thought of moving into new independent flat. But Now when I have moved into my new place and I don't feel the same anymore.

I belong to a holy place Haridwar and my journey took me here in Noida. It's been around 2 year 10 months now I have been here,  since I got my job. May be when you are out of your own hometown, the place where you dwell in becomes second home you refer too. Just like if you are visiting any other planet, may be Earth would be your home. Yes I can say this city 'Noida' is my second place and here I wanted my own space.
    This big city, I suppose, has concentration of entertainment hub, big malls, restaurants and all other happening junctions that keeps you absorbed in them. My work and these entertainment hubs kept me busy and  my life on rolls. Likewise I never imagined the 'Home' might be something I would miss!! Like Soldier I dream t of a home all through this time frame. So in search of my own place, I mingled and changed my put up place quite a times here and there. And one thing always remained same, ie, 'The PG'. How much you try, PG cant be your very own. Its nice to have long night chit chats with your roomies but then too PGs are annoying at sometimes. I used to think about escaping it and that happened. This time it was different, I moved  to my own independent rented flat.

Moving into my new place was a great feeling. On finding my apartment at 9th floor of the building, wohoo! I was filled with super duper excitement and the excitement was for experiencing my new mornings at heights. So now day starts with morning coffee and top balcony view. And guess what I discovered there is a 'green belt' zone  around the vicinity of apartments, that I was looking out for my morning walk. Though I have not started with it yet but planning to implement it soon :P
    Now things are mine to keep as my own, my room, my TV, my cupboards. In fact deciding my room rather I should say the fight I had with my sis for choice of room was not easy and yes I won the battle, yay !! Here I have things to look about something at hand that I can improve. Cooking was something that I didn't know it before. I have started with baby steps to enhance my cooking skills, trying out different recipes though they may be easiest one, say 'dal' but it makes me happy. Locating the nearby grocery shop and fruit market even that too I found interesting. And without a miss  I would like to mention that there comes responsibilities as well, and for me that is maid management. Eventually I have understood the importance my maid, a day without her is pathetic !!
 As everyone knows managing your place is an ongoing process, so there is a lot more to be explored at my  place. I have to stop here, my experience in exploring new place and trying out some small but new things cant fit in some words. So here I end with a note It is my new place where I feel safe, comforted and loved.
          Home is where heart is.............
