Maximum City
So the Bangalore chapter finally comes to an end. I honestly thought it would end a LOT earlier. But better late than never. And I'm off to Bombay (okay Mumbai, but Bombay sounds so much cooler)!!! Of course needless to say I'm shit scared.

I don't know the city at all and the weather is crap. And the rains! For anyone who knows me even remotely they know I hate the rains. So Bombay is gonna be one huge watery nightmare. Plus I will be paying a walloping 13k for a place which has a bedroom the size of my palm!!! But I am so so so so excited.

Ever since high school I have wanted to live in Bombay. Going to college was ruled out because of crap crap marks. Then going for a Master's degree was out because I wanted to be in the same city as the then boyfriend. An internship in Bombay went down the drain when I fell horribly ill. A job offer fell through when the company started acting super pricey! So you can imagine how long I've been playing this ridiculous cat and mouse game with Bombay. But its finally happening.

Eight months of Reuters and I've realised that I write better than I report. Maybe I'm not really cut out to be a reporter. So I'm headed off to production. UTV is launching a new business news channel and I'm gonna be an assistant producer. And if the job is really what I have heard and imagined it to be, then I have a feeling I'm bloody right for it!

And there are so many perks to this job it's amazing. Firstly I will get paid more. Of course in Bombay I will need that much and more to survive but it's a really good hike. Some of my closest friends are in Bombay which makes it worth the while. And the boyfriend is a mere 3 hour drive away. Plus there is an insanely cute guy I'm sorta eying in Bombay. Of course that is unfair to the boyfriend but we all know my wicked streak is alive and kicking, so let's see where that takes me.

That's the update on me for the time being.

Watch this space for more. :)
