The P in P series : Prathap in Pune

When I got a mail saying I have to be moving to Pune to work, it was extremely shocking, life for me has been Bangalore as was bought there. Moving out of the state to live with set of unknown people was something which was never attempted before ( in the true style, as they say in stunt shows). Till date I had been out of house for just 10 days, during schooling for NCC camp on the outskirts of the city without any interaction with parents face to face and other people who were close to me, with teachers to keep tab.  Which it self was taxing on me.

Now, have completed two months of my life in pune, having visited few places which are quite near from city. The stay so far has been neither wonderful nor really bad.  Before coming here people said its all like Bangalore you will hardly feel the difference, but I beg to differ on few aspects on that, also I stay outside the city, so the opinion about the city isn't great,  though have visited the city quite a few times, I don't find it as beautiful or good as Namma Bengaluru.  Moving to an unknown city is not very easy, I was lucky enough to have few friends from my college here, who made my transition extremely smooth and quite enjoyable.

Language hasn't been a great issue during my short period of stay, if you know the national Language Hindi, you can some how live it off, as people do speak Hindi. 

During the NCC camp every interaction with people in house used to be very emotional, Oh wasn't I young then :P ,  I am do emotional  now a bit only, I miss my home to the core, earlier when some one said its very difficult to stay from house, I could only sympathize, never could empathize completely,  now I can feel it.  When u stay away from house you miss out on those small happiness and close interactions, and also the friends who are always a step away to meet n hang out. Though their has been advancement in technology, like the mobile phone and facebook and skype the sense of being far is less, there is nothing like being next to each other and sharing a moment.
