The adventures of Trent

4 months back home......

So its already been 4 months since I left incredible India to come back home and "settle down" for the time being. I've managed to score a job as an accountant working with a medium sized firm called Davies Knox Maynards. Top place hey, good people, good hours, the moneys good, so overall I've managed score big time. And I'm planning to stay here for the next few years while I do my post grad degree to qualify to do my CPA to eventually become a fully qualified accountant. Yes the one thing I've been resisting against over the past number of years, I'm doing it ;) don't laugh, accountants are people too.....

But I must say its been challening coming back home...and when I say coming home, I really do mean coming home...staying with my parents. After more than 2 years of total independence living just a few kms from the centre of cities to coming back home to logan...the sticks, the burbs......its taken alot of getting used to being back in logan again...

I really miss people.....like there is just no one around. I miss having people everywhere...things happening all around....my senses constantly being aroused and challenged.....smells, sights, sounds, tastes....god I miss spicy Indian food. The "indian" food here just isn't the same. A while back I ordered a butter chicken and told them to make it as hot as they possibly can....and it really wasn't that hot. I was sweating like a royal pig while eating it, but the burning sensation of my mouth just wasn't there......so the search continues for good, hot indian food...especially cheese pav bhaji, i would dead set sell my first born child to get a cheese pav bhaji from Kanti Sweets on CMH Road in Bangalore.....

.....ah I miss India.......
