how do i tell u ma, how much i miss home...especially when bihu is here? i so much yearn to turn back time..to go through everything once again. waking up early will never be a problem again...nor chewing a "neem and two masoor dals". of course i'll gladly eat the 'hundred and one" kind of haak without any fuss... no more of my tantrums while you shop, no more of your compromises... just let me spin around time ma...to experience bihu as a kid again.

As this is the eighth time i am away from home on bihu, mark my absence once again. do use my share of maah- halodhi for the morning bath and accept my obeisance which we always pay to u and papa. (p.s. do not forget my ten bucks in return!:) ) And next month wen i come home, i'll do with whatever little pitha and laru you could manage to save for me...for now i know how it feels to miss the euphoria in a distant city...

rongali bihur suvessyare... to ma, papa, myna, baba, al my friends and to someone special...
