The Old New

Seems confusing right! Is it old or new that I am talking about? Well, it’s my old hostel room. But returning to it after a span of two and a half months is making it kind of new to me. Any way, I understood that my room didn’t feel lonely or didn’t miss me only after entering the room. It got a great company! A grape size spider (probably the head of the family) with its family stayed in my room with the company of their food. I gave them a permanent send off after one hour of hard work. Then appeared the real problem! I am almost the only one in my floor. And then came the bats to say a “hi” and “good evening” to me. I had to bend my head down and run away in respect. But thank God! No lizard turned up. They love me so much!

Finally done with all this, feeling thirsty I went to get some water. And it tasted like heaven! I couldn’t even take it down my throat after being accustomed to mineral water all these days. May be a day more and I will adapt myself to the surroundings.

So, this brand new experience in my old hostel room gives me the feel of a new one. And the big teddy that I have in my room is the most attractive part.
