A Day 2,3,4,5......times too sweet!

Basically I am a non sweet person. Too much of sweetness causes Indigestion for me. When all the girls of my age used to take pleasure in reading princess and cindrella's stories, I preferred Thomas Hardy, Emily Bronte and Dickens. Nonetheless I am not boasting, it's just that I've been subject to too much sugar in my tea today,so I'm just recalling what place does "sugar" hold in my life.
  • Early morning drizzles refreshed me. I woke up automatically without any door bell or alarm.
  • Auto wallah charged only Rs.20 that too without my pleading to do that 40 to 30 or even 25!
  • It was my last day of 7 weeks internship.No more of rush in Buses,rickshaw, no more heat,sweat and fatigue.Even the bus journey seemed happy one!The cool air after little rain shower had a Midas touch today!
  • We carried chocolates for everyone in the office, Bhaiya bought it for us early in the morning-that too without brushing his teeth even ,so I never offered him any chocolates. ;P [he is also a big part of this "sweet story", he likes every sweet thing possible under sun,in complete accordance to his whole being and nature! how can anyone be so sweet?No wonder Mausi named him "chiti-the ant" ] ;)
  • Anyways since the last few days every one in the factory had started appreciating our work so much. especially the CEO sir.
  • Initially his perception for NIFTians was so bad that we were demotivated to the core. Still we tried exploring everything in best possible way.
  • But seeing our work on the whole he was so happy that he not only organized a small Tea party with kachori,sweets and cold-drinks as our farewell gift, but also praised us in front of whole gathering saying that we have changed his perception fully,and if we become a little more interested in garments than he can build his team of designers with us.
  • Everyone was so happy today that I couldn't believe myself. All because of swatches or things I wrote in brochure or few artworks? May be I explored less than 2% of possibilities,but it was so sweet to bear so much importance in a day.
  • Not only this ,I was amazed to see myself speechless after so long. I had no words, emotions seemed to overpower all my senses,I couldn't speak a word. God knows what will happen on the last day of NIFT? If two months of interaction drenched me so much in sentiments,what would be it like leaving so many college friends . Even the joy of returning back home could not cure this!
  • let me stop now or else I will have to have some anti-sweetness medicine to digest all these!
