Virginia is very beautiful. I'm not comparing it to central PA but still it is beautiful! .. I love Reston.
I worked in quite interesting places you would not imagine... hmm atleast not when u think of USA. As everyone knows (I'm assuming) , my first job out of school was in Lancaster, PA (yeah the Amish county) . I used to live in Lancaster at that time. I loved the place. I liked the pople, they were so laid back.. totally like me. Then my office place moved( along with its 8 employees) to Manheim.. its more Amish.. the non commercial Amish ppl.. I had moved in with Deepthi ( My so far best roomie ... :D my dear friend) and we were living in Hallam pa ( never heard of this town right) its a small town one of my manages would joke tht you can drive past the town in one breadth... It was awsome at first .. I loved Manheim... all you could see around there were farms amd cows, and horses and all the things you get to see in a yash chopra's village scene... i think i ccan also say Indians.. but i'm not sure if Amish ppl are also called as Indians ... when we started work thr it was kind of june i gues and all the corn crops were full ripe.. sometimes when I went to feild work ( not kheti ppl) we would drive along wheat farms too .. it was so much fun to see all this.. unfortunately for me, I did not have much exposure to farmland and villages as a child so it was crazy amusing. we saw the crops being reaped, the cheap farmers markets on the fams literally ... Life was awesome... koi tension nehe ... no work and all play... watching movies and TV shows at work ... then winter came and the whole place was like a fairy land... then spring was okay and boring.. the fun was not fun anymore... but I got bored sometimes... One day my manager called me and said .. beta .. yahan tera kuch nehe hoga.. u should go out and see the real corporate world... so start applying for real jobs ( no I was not fired or laid off .. it was an advise frm a buzurg ) by this time I was already applying for jobs and attending some interviews... and thus I landed in my second job in Harrisburg PA ( yeah PA again) hmm its the capitol of PA... but as the case of all other capitols... this place was ehhh .. well a total laid back again! but the good part was I had to be there only for 6 months before I came to work in Fairfax :D ... When I moved to harrisburg, deepthi Joined me .. so it was awsome time again.. we went to gym, shopping, icecream, .. I went to hershey park, my parents and my sisters visited, lakshmi got her first real job, my sister got engaged, ... it was a beutiful place.. I loved Harrisburg !! .. but work was still the same.. nobody gave me anything to do... all I did was fooling around. Next destination was Fairfax va... well the curent one... the place is amazing again.. new room mates and all but they are sweet. Work wise.. its only 6 ppl in the office so its full masti time... work is on and off.. we are waiting for some good projects so ... dekhte hai ... :)
