Hi again, just back from work after a very long day. I’m typing away with just the night lamp on and my dinner plate by my laptop. Called my parents first thing on my way to my apartment – it’s very important to me. I actually start my day with a call from them and always call once I’ve reached home at night. Even when I’m doing night shifts, I call to wish good night. To say the truth, I don’t think I would ever stop doing that.

Btw, something interesting came up at work today. My boss told me that there’s this feature on female foeticide that needs to be done which would include a lot of traveling in different parts of rural India, and I’ve been chosen for it! I have worked on a few assignments related to women's rights before, but it's been mostly based on feedback and surveys of working women in the various metropolitan cities. But this is so different and I'm really looking forward to it.

I love traveling and ever since I’ve moved, I haven’t had much of a chance to use my camera. It’s one gadget that I’m prodigiously proud of. My brother gifted it to me the last time he came home on a holiday. It’s a digiSLR and I’m aching to make good use of it. This trip's going to do just that.
