| my first uncooked rice |
who was so so dependent on her parents is independent now. now it was my time to earn for my own tummy... now its my time to fulfill my own demands and i say its very difficult to do that. i realized it very late...too early for the next generation perhaps. my independence started in the totally death alien world (for it was). the road condition seems terrible and they called it farm road... there was no electricity and they used candle, lantern or solar... the place seem so isolated and they called it peace. this was indeed an alien world to me... a girl who is brought up in urban is placed in this place. the very first nite in that place, me and my parents were in the same room sleeping... my mother and father was so tired that they dozed off the moment their heads were on the pillow...i pitied them and felt sorry for them. they came to drop me off to my work place and here they are tired but sound sleep. that very night, many questions were popped in my head, is god punishing me for having an easy life so far??? why i am here??? what i will do wen my parents leave me here all alone tomorrow?? will i be able to work here with lots of new faces?? there were many questions in my head before my drowsiness over took me.

| my first cooked curry |
i was not worried about the work for i know there will be someone who will guide me and i was sure abt it. the biggest worry or hurdle was how m i supposed to cook in pressure cooker??? that worried me a lot... well, practice makes man perfect.. ha ha, i did learn how to cook in it but before that i had to eat burnt rice or uncooked rice... the curry would be uncooked too... how i wished there was electricity here. me being new here didn't get solar facilities like other older staffs... i had to spent my night with candles and kerosene lantern.
Now it's almost three years, i find life easy. the roads are maintained, the place is electrified, got to know the new faces, now i called them friends..
that's life, we learn we move on....
