Down memory lane..............

The wait ends today...well at least for me.There is so much excitement bubbling within , that my smile seems stuck on my face.I'm finally heading home.It has been a long year...full of ups and downs.
I can safely say that all of us had our good and bad times, and that we have grown , as people and as designers in this year.for some reason i cant stop reminiscing either.....and i realize that the number of happy memories far outnumber the bad ones...

Here are some of them that are very vivid, etched in my mind like photographs.I write them down in fear of losing them.....so that i can make them eternal..........

beautiful manasi...it is difficult to remember memories but the thought of it builds up such pictures that after years it remains as fresh and crisp in our minds like it happened just that day. Glad that u made a fine attempt to keep such memories alive!

and yes...memories are like vivid photogaphs(supplemented with an audio)....
it's weird how parts of events in our lives get translated to such pictures...
