India 2008: day 20
Wednesday, October 1, 2008

What an appalling effort at keeping my blog updated during this trip... Yes, I've been awful. Because I spent all of my time here with family, I had really almost no chance of getting away and finding an internet cafe'. I must have been online maybe four times in the last three weeks.
This has been a truly weird trip for me. I don't know how to explain; family tensions coming to the surface, the fact that fundamentally, this was the wrong time for me to be here, and the fact that I seem to have missed out on a gazillion things in Oxford including my lovely Russian's birthday and god knows what else... On my last afternoon and evening in Delhi I don't feel too happy, really. Tomorrow morning I shall be boarding the flight back to London and then a bus to Oxford, and I don't know how I feel about the last three weeks. I feel really confused.
I better sort all of this out in my head before I get back and need to move and make a home and find a job...
In happier news, I did have some great times. My aunt's final party was great, and I visited some absolutely beautiful places. So at least I've been happy for bits of this trip.
And now back to reality. Including a seriously overpacked suitcase (despite having already sent 11 kgs of stuff through the post!!!). :)

Version

Because a picture is worth a thousand words, and I cannot describe my life better than a picture can.
And because my heaven is here, I'll wrap the world around it and live in a cocoon. Quoting from a favourite song, 'Letting the cables sleep' by Bush, in its incarnation as a remix. And I do wish the friend who introduced me to the song was here to see the way things turned out.
The photos used on this site were all taken by me and can be found on my Flickr account.
