A little over two years back when I got out of the plane and collected my bags at the Minneapolis St. Paul International Airport, I had no clue its going to be so tough bidding goodbye to this city. I still remember the impressive yet not intimidating view of Minneapolis downtown as we approached University area from the airport. The same view today makes me feel completely at home, its almost queer how I could get used to anything in such a short span.

      its an understatement if I say my stay in Minneapolis has been a roller coaster ride.......seen terrible lows and yet moments of warmth and comfort on the coldest of days, been through a phase where spending money seemed like a crime and then also when I realized the real fun and frolic came for free......when any sort of work seemed like an unnecessary burden and also when I lived the pure ecstacy of real learning and understanding, experienced both....extreme loneliness and also seemingly known people around me suffocating me to the core.

      Maybe I have grown up, maybe I have become a tad bit more mature, maybe everyone has to go through something like that once in their lives and maybe its all for the good.......... the only thing I know right now,  its sure going to be tough ........for more reasons than one.......the final ride to the airport on nov. 17th!
