Vacationing at the Beach !!

Hey Everyone ! How have you been?! I am sure everyone is doing great . :)

So I just returned from a mini-vacation. Yes, you guessed it right, I went to the beach in Puri, India.
For those who aren't familiar with this beach , let me tell you , it is quite a tourist attraction and Puri is also one of the most Sacred place for the Hindus.

I went there for just 3 days , but for the most of it I was sitting at the beach , staring at the sea, hearing the sound of the waves and enjoying myself completely. Since its winter here, walking up early was quite a challenge. Nevertheless I did wake up since the morning view is just too pleasant to be missed. Another reason for the early wake up was that a large number of fishermen catch fishes all night and sell it at the beach the next morning, so having never witnessed anything like that , I was more than excited to see it.
Morning view



The afternoon was when I preferred not to leave my hotel room  (blazing Sun) !!

In the evening as I walked in the beach I saw something extraordinary. Some artists created magnificent sculptures with sand!! Yes you heard me right, SAND !! I couldn't believe how talented these men were to build something so amazing. Some made faces of Hindu Gods like Shiva and Ganesha , while others made a full body mermaid or even the face of Gautama Budhha ! I remained spell bound seeing the artistic quality that these men possess and sincerely wish they get their due recognition !

Soon the 3 days came to an end and it was time to return home, where there is more buildings than greenery & more polluted air than clean breeze. However I still have memories to cherish upon and intend to go vacationing at some other beach soon!

Expect the Unexpected


H
ow often we fall prey to this quote“expect the unexpected” . And probably this is the best way to describe my past few days.


Never did I imagine that, what I thought would be boring and unfruitful  ,would turn out to be such an amazing experience . This is the experience I had in my orientation training , which took place over a span of seven days.  From searching the centre, to awkwardly talking to the neighbouring person, to making an utter fool of ourself during the introduction was  what the first day comprised of.

During tea breaks , the room would turn into a fish market with everyone talking at the top of their voice.
And during lunch , we would sit together and talk about anything and everything under the sun. In which,  commenting on the food given to us would top the list followed by the extremely uncomfortable chairs we had to sit on and the list would go on.

By the time the last day came , we all had realized that this was the last time we are seeing each other until the next training program or tuition class. But that was proven wrong when all of us met on Christmas eve . The evening was filled with laughter and enjoyment , madness and foolishness .  

We all parted ways only to meet up soon and have another fun night out . Till then we would keep our insanity with us .

Hope you enjoyed reading this , Happy Holidays everyone . Merry Christmas and a Happy new year.
