40th day

today is the 40th day of my stay in the US and have absolutely no idea as to how many '40 days' i will stay here. things have been good so far. smooth sailing has been been the order of the day, rare bumps. the initial days are exciting because whatever you see is new, whatever you do is almost always new. but soon these things will become old for me, but i have a feeling that these things will forever excite me. i should have been an archaeologist. but since i am not i have to be contented with what i am.

i always thought that US is a happy country, people have few sorrows. but i realized very soon that they have their own problems, the curse of being a citizen of the most powerful country in the world. one thing that struck me fast was the fact that people here are highly individualistic but have a great ability to work in a team. may be the latter is to satisfy the ego of the first. when i saw Iris first i thought she was beautiful. someone straight out of the dreams. i could understand her from the very first sight, and that was the very first talk that we had. but did we talk ?
