I am so happy for you.
I am very glad to hear that you made it to India! Congratulations! I have been enjoying reading your blogs very much the last few months. I continue to be amazed at how easy words seem to come to you in describing your surroundings. It is very lyrical and fun to read. I love you too! I am sorry if I did anything in the past to hurt your feelings. Although there is no excuse for loosing contact or abandoning a friendship, I want to let you know that I have matured in the last few years and I do value you and our friendship. I am glad that you have kept me in your life and that you are sharing your amazing journey with me. Thank you! And for your morbidity, I appreciate it!

I almost did my senior project on it... but I couldn't find a professor to sponsor my research. Lol, its not my fault I am an orphan :) Until next time. Take care!
