Leaving Chennai

A sense of fear gripped my minds as i was setting out for my first ever trip away from home. Moving to XLRI, Jamshedpur seemed to be a real achievement. But the feeling of living away from chennai was not so acceptable. Not so far away , yet traveling to and staying at Jamshedpur seemed to worry me a lot. Being a most pampered kid of my family, I have hardly had an experience of living alone. The fact that i was the only child for my parents made the matters worse. I was fortified (read protected) till this day. I always had to look upto my dad for help for most of my activities. Now I will have to learn not just to live alone but also to survive alone.
Chennai has always been a great place to live. I have been here for the past 11 years. Never have i regretted for that. Never have a place been so peaceful and also a great joint for national and international foods. To a person like me with a lot of friends and a unbelievable craze for movies, chennai has virtually been a heaven on earth. One can get anything he like in a matter of one hour. There can be nothing like roaming around at Spencers, Gathering for a movie at satyam, driving late at night in Adyar, Getting a quick walk across the maddening crowd in Usman Road, Getting a fresh morning jog in G.N.Chetty Road where u cannot even walk during busy hours, etc .... Driving my bike in mount road or my car in ECR has always given a feel of eternal bliss. Chennai is neither a small nor a lifeless place which is easy to forget and forgo. Agony and pain has already began flooding my heart for leaving chennai. Its just heaven on earth for people who had been here for quite some time.
