For the expectant few,
I am paying my due
*******************
Yo Oys!
Been ages hasn’t it?
thanx for checking in dude, especially at a time when I was beginning to wonder if I even ever had friends, family, dreams...
True everyone is engrossed in their own lives. I have stopped emailing and stopped complaining of not getting emails. We all have our own circle I guess. Honestly, I find it very hard to relate with the very person I used to hang out with 24/7 in Nepal. That's the way it is. Ironic, isn't it....haha esp. when you have such vibrant dreams bout your friends for future?Have you met anyone from our batch?
I don’t know if I told you, but I was in New Orleans for the Mardi Gras party. Honestly oys, those two days were the only ones I have enjoyed to the fullest in US so far… well I am beginning to realize what was in that dude’s mind when he jumped off the platform I do like your idea of retiring out in Tibet some day..but for me Amsterdam would be a better option.. u know better!
I totally agree with you, US has made me a racist. If you were here in the south, you would truly understand what its like to hate. Personally myan, I have realized its fair and square: In us, if u r white, u r all rite, if u r black ,u r all rite, if you r in between, u r fked up. Hispanics did give me some resort for a while. You wouldn’t believe, I even took a Spanish class last semester and excelled in it…the only punchline I know now is “NO HABLO ESPANOL” so much for the Hispanic brotherhood. But we still love and succumb to live like a third class citizen. Hail the brave nepalis!
Myan, no matter how hard I tried to run away, its after all nepalis that make the difference…….eat together, smoke together, drink together, above all stick together during good and bad times…well, too much nepalis could have made a mess, but few out here it’s a brotherly bliss. I hear here and there stories of nepali get together, forums and shits….I don’t know if I feel utterly jealous hearing bout it or truly wanna laugh out loud!!
How’s yor work going on dude? I have been Been working too much these days. 40 hours a week doesn't sound too much but it's not like the job in a computer lab or library. It's in the f^&%$# fastfood, and during those 40 hours, the only time I get to sit is when I go to take a shit. I go really crazy and go to my second last resort, sleep! sometimes I find my last resort, but it's expensive and dangerous too! I really don’t like smoking or drinking anymore…..Is there any good reason to be wasted anymore out here? sometimes, i think of going to nepal...and join the maoists!I'd be better off..eheh
Oys, dude, others might not see our reason for coming to US(would laugh at us if we did explain) but Man tell you what, if my parents call me back home sayin' that they miss me so much, I don't have to study 24/7, I don’t have to be the friggin doc or engineer; all I got to do is stay with them, I'll be the happiest man alive. But that's not gonna happen in this lifetime!. how are things at your end? For better or for worse, I hope we can at least sit down again someday in future and enjoy our version of matrix by the same riverside
But for now, the show must go on!!
differently sane!

Really a good one. I really enjoyed reading it.
Most of us here in US would love to go back, provided things are Ok with our family and ...sort..Ki kaso.
I was thinking of going back as soon as I finish my degree from here, but looks like my family don't want me to be there so soon. Not because, I am bad or anything but because f the present situation. Do you think its good to go back and search for jobs or to stay here in US, and do whatever we get?

Career here, social life there. Tehi ho. Tara some will, ofcourse, disagree. For now, it's playing by the INS rules and also hiding from them occasionally.
Always used to religiously believe others and myself:
"Padhchhu, alik kati experience batulchhu, ani farkanchhu"
Haven't seen any (or most) of the people return. And I am no exception.

hello oys!
yeah...it feels lovelly to be back home...meet parents ,close friends...and above all the beautiful place ....
ktm and other parts of nepal..
well! i have been in kathmandu for couple of months now..after 3 years back there..phuuu!
.and it feels awsome...as if something within the heart has just started to bloosom ..
man u could just be friends with anyone and everyone here...well u could be in rikshaw could be sharing a ciggy with him and talking about his daily routine,in the streets of thamel sitting in pavement with khateey kids,in bhaktapur pulling hukka with old folks and hearing their say...i mean its great...to see people so willing to talk to you ...happy to share their time and willing to help..SO AFTER ALL IT FEELS AS IF, IF THERE IS A HEAVEN IN EARTH THEN ITS HOME ,...NEPAL.
but then...well! it might sound crazy but today was the last day of the 3 days nepal band called by maoists...and everything was totally standstill ,closed!
i mean empty streets ,closed shops,no VIECHELES
u could see people walking to office ,..who otherwise would go in personal conveyence..
yeah! but.. clean air ..mountainbiked all the way to nagarkot and saw the mountains ! it was yesterday! it was lovely...
u are right..there is definately a generation gap with new kids here u know...lols
#i hope you met gini bro back there...give him ma regards!
SO FOR FOLKS WHO THINK ITS ANOTHER LIFE TIME to be in ktm
MAN YOU GOT TO THINK TWICE...
u dont know what u are missin....
nice to see u writting again, oys! take care!

laaaaaaaaaa laaaa deep bro!
hadigaun these days has overpopulated with concrete wilderness...
man! dont know how these houses mushroom so fast ..phuuuuuu!
and oys...the overwhelming feeling of being in ktm is still sinking in...:)
abut new generation...tell you what...awwwwwwww:P its a "downward spiral" in my personal opinion..one nice thing may be is i overheard the old western lady talking to her frens..she seemed to have lived in ktm for a long time...she was like"females in ktm have started giving complex to their western counterparts in the matter of sartorical taste and narcotics"...lols..
new generartion in ktm seems to have plunged into hard drugs ..poppy derivatives seems to have flooded down in ktm from siliguri side...
well! there sure was a opium revolution in china seems like its the turn of nepal sooner or later...
PEOPLE SURE HAVE STARTED APPRICIATING ORIENTAL MUSIC..AND FOR A CHANGE I AM JUST BACK FROM ekadasi...concert
which is a typical nepalese classical music...
that was awsome...! could see a golden mountain in the evening today ..a whole panaroma..from changunarayan temple...!
stick on to your dreams...its the vision that matters...
and we sure will have a gettogether...
take care
