To keep this blog alive…
I started this blog for my Feature Writing class during my undergrad years in the spring of 2009. I thought it would be a good idea to keep it alive. Since then, through the summers, winters, falls and springs, this blog has been a chronicle of my experiences. From North America to South Africa, Asia and Europe, I have my experiences saved in here.
But as I am jostling with my graduate classes now, I really am really not generous of stepping in here. But once in a while, I do like to reflect on my life–past, present and even the future.
Let me start with the obvious present: my life in one of the greatest cities in the world, London. Well, still I don’t know that I am totally love with New York City. First love always is special, as they say.
Anyways, London. It’s been almost two weeks since I’ve been here. I’ve enjoyed the sunshine while it lasted, the blue skies and temperature in the upper 20s. Now I think it’s time to embrace the winter. I know I’m just going to bitch about the cold like I did in Kathmandu, but some of my dear friends have been spared this time around. I think they certainly miss me whining, complaining and bitching 24X7.
As far as the city, I love walking around the city. I really do miss my friend as we always worked around Kathmandu literally all the time. And Sumina Karki, yes you, you probably won’t be complaining about your shoes and men staring at you on the way to office!
Office. Oh, I miss that cubicle of mine. And to be honest, I do miss the real-world work.
But here, I am learning a lot. I can now shoot and edit videos. I’m going to start radio soon. That’s some addition to my skills.
Wait, did I tell you all that I got a one-day internship. Well, it’s an NGO and the first day, which was last week, I wrote two press releases. I didn’t move from that desk. I am not sure if I really like the PR stuff, but it’s just utilizing my time here or I’d be sleeping half the day.
What else?
I’m going to keep it short here. If something strikes me and if I am free from my course blog, I’ll step in here again. And if some random thought strikes my mind, I’ll have them here.
But if you are a really die-hard fan of my writing, then follow me at www.bibekjournal.wordpress.com
I won’t disappoint.
