Adieu Hyderabad

Its been long when I first came to this place. 3 yrs passed in such a rush I never realized I have been here for that long. I still remember the day when I came to Hyd for the first time. That was for the personal round of interview @ Oracle. The day was special not just because I was in a big city watching all the big hoardings on road side nor because I was coming for an interview at the company I actually never thought to be a part of (later on I said it was my dream), but the actual reason was sitting in an aeroplane for the first time (yeah then it was called an aeroplace). But the real excitement started after reaching back Chandigarh. Every day passed refreshing my rediff inbox to check if the offer letter was in. And then one day it was there. I can't even express how I felt that time...elated, ecstatic, rapturous. And then finally I was here. Joined Oracle and days went on. Still remember the first time I went to Hyd Central, which was my first visit to a shopping mall (though I had been to a couple of them in Chandigarh, I refrain myself from calling them shopping malls ). Still remember the day when I first asked a girl out for a coffee and to my utter astonishment she said yes and then she was with me at a ice-cream parlor next day. Still remember the day when I first met this lovely girl whom I never thought I'll spend so much time with. Met Simar, who turned out to be a friend, a brother, a guide. We spent some great moments together.

And now I am here in my room packing my bags to embark on a new journey. A journey filled with enthusiasm. A journey to a place where I came from 3 yrs back, in search of new friends and to meet the ones I once spend all my time with.

Adieu Hyderabad !!! Noida here I come !!!
