Something Old...Something New
The funny thing about life is how it continually throws you curve balls...just when you think you have everything figured out...BOOM...but I am getting ahead of myself...lets take a step back...
Going to Kellogg was one of the best decisions I have ever made...such a complement to LBS...it was very refreshing to be in a class with 675 people, compared with 315...to be in Evanston compared to London...All in all I made new friends, some of which I know I will have for a very long time...and made it to NYC, Miami, and LA...and then back to NYC (more on that later)....
Chicago is a city with a special place in my heart...I honestly don't think a better city exists to raise a family...that combines the great times...with a sense of balance...not too hectic...personality...character...It's a city that will be mine forever...that is for sure...
Comparing Chicago to India...now that is an exercise...For the third year in a row, I have spent New Year's with my brother...this is something that is tremendously special to me...he is my best friend and our trips keep getting better and better...Next year we have already decided on South America...hopefully Brazil can handle the Starr's...
India is a country that needs to be seen to be believed...so much grandeur...majesty...history...words cannot describe the people and countryside that will envelope you from all angles...The palaces are stunning...the temples are magical...the poverty...well...no real words to describe the poverty...With the help and assistance of good friends (Mayur and Gautam) India welcomed us with open arms and I can't wait to go back...
London is as welcoming as ever...it is great to be back and experience what I missed for four months...the people and places...my favorite restaurants...Chelsea...kebabs...it really does feel like home...and I am happy to say a home that I will be sharing with many friends in the coming months, so I am quite excited...
So...what what does the future hold? Well...back to those curve balls...seems that I can thank my brother for yet one more thing in my life...due to his day of birth I happened to meet someone really special...so...future...well...to say I am excited to see what happens is an understatement...but I promise to keep everyone in the loop...
So to everyone...here's to happiness...here's to good things happening when you least expect them...and here's to 2008, a year that I am really starting to get very excited about...
