G Friend

Few years back, I was shocked to see my client’s son with his gal friend in one of the photos placed at her desk. I was questioning your son is just sixteen years old but still has a girl friend, she grinned and conveyed teens in U.S mandatorily have a gal or boy friend. I can not ever imagine having a boy friend when I was sixteen. Probably most of Indian teens would have undergone the phase of having crush on someone during school and college days but for sure we would not have expressed such matters to our parents. In U.S, teens share their puppy love with their parents. In a way I strongly feel parents should help juveniles to come out of such temporary feelings when needed. Highlight of today's dinner was when I heard my little friend say he doesn't have a gal friend and that is a problem.

Initiative

It is always a question mark when it comes to keeping in touch with our old friends or extending our hand with a new friend.
I quite often think my friends are busy and never ever bothered to mail or talk to them.

I believe my friends do have similar thinking which restrained them to keep in touch. At least I take the responsibility to occasionally mail across people to know what is happening on their side. It is usually me who puts out the hand to introduce myself to new people or to converse; today someone else took a bold initiative to shake hands with me. I like such personalities who are proactive in maintaining and establishing quick relationship.

Red-hot

These days I am bit concern whenever I get a big pimple on my face as I have plans to visit my parents in couple of months. I don't want to hear saggy comments from my parents such as "why I was not taking care of myself", “I look weak/pale” etc. I am eating well and not worrying about gaining weight. Now I am only thinking of impressing my parents with all my learning’s from U.S life style. Not sure how many gallons of water I drank today to keep my body cool. Feeling very stressed out and heated up today.

Nite out

After a long time I am doing a night out today.

Making a Wait

I do not actually like people waiting for me but most of the time I land up making people wait for me. I would have said "yes" to my friends to leave home and the very next minute either someone would have called me or stopped by at my desk. I can not be rude to the person talking to me by saying "hey listen I got to pack home now, talk to you later". I have to spend couple of minutes chit-chatting and later convey the message you know what my friends are waiting for my arrival to disperse home. Today I disappointed two of my friends by making them wait for 20-30 minutes.

Veggie

It is sometimes difficult to explain how few vegetables such as avocado, celery, broccoli, artichoke, jalapeno and asparagus look like to our relatives in India. U.S has a mix of vegetables and fruits from all over the world, few of which we could have never heard, imagined or seen in India. Explained about broccoli to someone today.

Pets

Pets such as puppies, kitten, rat and mice etc. have a great and cherishing life in U.S. Americans really treat pets as one of their family members. Today most of us were either hiding or running to protect ourselves from the site of gigantic and different varieties of dogs on our expedition to pot hole in Taylors falls.
