I just moved to Pittsburgh from Mysore (that's a major MOVE!!) and I think there is a lot of similarity in the spirits of the two cities. Both are nice friendly cities, not too commercial, not too rural, the right kind of semi-urban cities. But, one thing different about Mysore and Pittsburgh is, I have family and friends back in Mysore. In Pittsburgh, I don't have family, and I'm still making friends. So, most of the time I'm left alone. By myself. And coming from a joint family (for people of US, a joint family is where you and your family live with your grand-parents, uncles, aunties, cousins in one single house...sounds unbelievable right?), it hasn't been easy for me to adjust to this new state of solitutde I find myself in here.
I tried pinging some people on gtalk who I thought I could be good friends with, but they're either busy, or maybe take time to open up or just don't want to be friends with me, whatever the reason, they don't respond much. Actually, the fact is that most of these people have already made good friends during the first few days itself and don't want anymore friends. Anyway, so I decided that I have to come up with some way to find someone to keep me company. And that is when I realized that it could be ME giving ME company. Yeah, split personality. Won't it be cool to have one alter ego? Wherever you go, he'll be with you and you'll never feel left out. So, now I have been trying to divide my personalities into two. One would be Muby and the other is the Doppleganger...my evil side...:-) I don't know whether you can develop a split personality by practice, but I'm sure gonna give it a shot..........
Wish me luck friends. ..........."Best of luck Muby...."
