Day 1# A Short Story

So the first one is – 250 words about me. 
Single child, raised in one of the quietest and most peaceful countries in the GCC. 
A blessed, protected childhood. And then the action began. Moved to India for higher education when I was 17. Young. Foolish. Excited. Not aware of the ways of the world. 
Pune. Calcutta. Pune. 
Before I knew it, I has a Masters degree in Communication Management and was employed at the Gurgaon office of numero uno Public Relations firm in the globe. Some of the best years of my life. Some of the best friends I made and the fondest memories came out of the decade I spent in India.
Those who know me will know that I have always given family the first priority, so when I felt I was needed at home, I let go of things I loved and hated in Delhi and moved back to Muscat.

Since this is ‘about me’ and I still have some 75 words left, it is essential to state that I love animals – dogs and horses, a little more. I love books, movies and music – can never give any one precedence over the others. Different shades of violet appeal to my half Bengali – half Punjabi heart. I’m a water baby and have only taken a teensy step towards the big blue world of scuba diving – although I intend to pursue it absorbedly. I’m sure 30 posts over the month will have opportunities aplenty for a display of my many loves, so I will stop now.
