May 2017 and it's memories

My vacation holidays are over as my internship began from May onward. At first I was hesitant about the whole idea about this new experience I am about to enter. As, I have been already a part of this new intern life, it's now my routine. But let me reminisce about the happenings so far.

On the first day of my internship: I woke up, got ready and reached the place tad bit early. That's what I thought. But turns out I reached super soon. The place is situated at the third floor of an apartment. I waited for a while then went to the stairs and walked up to see the terrace. My idea was to see the vast expanse of the city through the terrace view while I was passing time away but unfortunately the place was locked with grilled gate. The silent melancholy of not being able to see what I expected. Terraces and me never work out. I have been living in a house without terrace for two decades so far. So, whenever I visit some building I love to visit their terrace. 

The grilled gate of the terrace!
But in my life whenever expected things never happen beautiful unexpected things occur. I met three little caramel coloured kittens nearby that gate. They were scared. They didn't even meowed. When I told my brother about this incident back home he made joke like "Be glad the mother of those kittens didn't attack you" Well, siblings are one terrific yet horrendous present given to us.

The kittens escaped before I take second picture of them. I was just pure ecstatic that I was blessed to see such pretty kittens which almost broke up the nervousness of my first day as intern. The intern life was good and days passed by. The phases of life may change but the super slow frequency of buses in Chennai still remains the same. The wait, the crowd and finally reaching the destination alive. If you had read all my previous blogs I assume 10% of my life rantings would be about the buses. During one of my wait at the bus stop, I randomly spotted a stray dog which I photographed. I think people would have thought I am a weirdo while taking a picture of a stray dog incredibly emphasized under the striking street lights of the evening. 

The "Stray/ Stunning" Dog!
One fine morning, same situation happened when I was waiting for the bus. While everyone's faces were pondering upon their phones, vehicles and people. I basically looked up for a breathe of oxygen after a exhausting walk under the sun. To my surprise the clouds were surreal. What a spectacular view I thought! I quickly took a snap out of it. Nowadays I am not even afraid of what people might think and say. If it makes us happy and hurts none, why not pursue it?

Yesterday, I got this duty of assisting admissions for my future juniors at college. It felt a bit different to go back to the place (my college) I spent 4 years of my life after 1 month gap. We invigilated, corrected the papers, clarified their queries. The part which I enjoyed the most is when I started giving my philosophical advises to those kids. Even they were receptive of it. I don't know maybe it's the vulnerability of uncertainty that came due to their admission entrance test. But I felt satisfied that the future people aren't as ignorant as the past folks. Even though I felt not being able to attend my internship for a day, I felt happy to have a chance to know the crux of the new happenings and people. 

And, today I felt like bringing my blog active again even though their hasn't been much to talk about I wanted to record and share anything even if it sounds lame to others. Sometimes it's the little things/incidents that makes up our life. I hope all of you find such little things in life that can bring happiness in your life too. Piece of advice: Notice everything. It doesn't matter if is important or the purpose is unknown but it contributes to your life someway.

I noticed to water the plants. Guess what I got after months?
These pretty flowers!
