Meet my new friend and my family!

The best 2 things that had happened in this half a year since I entered Co-Assistant life.. yes, u read it right, don't ask me why such name is given but yes, we are called as such or in short Co-As, are.. Number 1, I made a new friend. Second, I had my "home" here in Bali for solid 4 days! I will tell u about the latter later.. Let's start with number one.

So, I met a person a year ago for a brief 10 minutes I guess, through another friend who happen to be my dance teacher. We had a big stage show going on and this person came to watch the show. We just had a small intro together also with other dancers and went back to our preparations for the show. Later on, thanks to facebook, we became online friends. Then, a couple weeks before, I got to know that he's came to Bali for a long holiday and we plan to meet up. By nature's grace I would say, after so many obstacles we met on one fine night, that too the night before he returns, at the beach under the light of moon and stars accompanied by the sound of waves.. It was a lovely night I met my friend and we talked for sometime before heading back home as he had to leave the next day. Though meeting took place just once, with technology at our fingertips, we are connected through various mediums and still keeping in touch. Though the frequency has reduced because of both our normal routine life has started, we're trying to keep the friendship going by buzzing each other now and then. It is quiet easy to talk and share things with someone who has same thoughts and interests in almost everything (no 2 person can have exact same thoughts and interests or desires for Everything!) than those who are not. He's an amazing person and friend and I'm glad to have found him.

As for the latter.. Home is where your heart belongs to. My heart belongs to my lil family who came down to visit me, together they made themselves and me at home for 4 solid days. I was in seventh heaven. With my parents and my bro I went to most places they wished and chose to go and spent the whole time together with them. Mom's cooking, dad's presence and occasional fight with my bro.. It just completes my definition of home, Heaven on Earth I would say!! They left 7 hours ago but I can still hear their voices in my room. I just got too used to returning to a room filled with my loved ones for these past four days that when I return to an empty room after sending them off I felt the old loneliness creeping in and a prick of pain somewhere deep inside me. One of the best moments while I was with them was to see my parents got excited and really enjoyed themselves watching DOLPHINS!!! Dolphins which will be out jumping around only during sunrise every morning in Bali Sea in north Bali, is one of the tourist attractions here and we loved the experience!

Happy Independence Day to the land where my nativity lies.. If not for my grandparents who went out of their homeland for a better life at that time, I am not sure if I will ever be born on this planet earth. Thanks to them, I am here and I am who I am today. Though I am a citizen of another country, one cannot forget one's roots. Mine is always in India. Because I am refered as a Malaysian in every other country including in India but in my own country I am under 'Indian' quota for everything. Funny eh? Bitter truth of my life.. But anyways, I am happy for the life I'm living and I am always PROUD to be an INDIAN!! Never once I regret of my skin colour.. That's my identity.
