We miss something and that something is our attitude. I personally feel that an artiste should always have a set of typical attitudes to carry for different situations. I am dwelling in some completely different territory where the everything is different than what I have experience for the most part of my life. This has left an impression on my character. I am not a very good stalker so I would not say that people are very fond of me and they treat me like a God, however, I learnt to land in someones heart without speaking a word. I mingled with people whom we, the mass detest and also learned some ways of life. A new life for me you can say. We have been put to rigorous training of professionalism. We have been asked for next to impossible things like photograph sunny day shot (called BDE situation shot) in cloudy rainy day. Me and my friend boarded auto and went to some view poing in 6 degrees c cold in rain and photographed some valley for HDR outdoor shot listening to my friend cursing the faculties with some godforsaken words. Amazing isn't it, atleast I can't forget this for the rest of my life.
Wherever I go I first try to learn the local language. its a difficult task atleast for a northerner in southern India. I somehow managed a "Learn Tamil through English" book from a local book store (about 1/4 size of any big bookstore of Calcutta) which happens to be Ooty's one of the biggest bookstore (except Higgin Botham's, which according to me less a bookstore and more of a paperback seller). Yeah yeah all you Ootyites would call me prejudiced and opinionated. I am trying to adjust, that how I do it, adjust and accommodate. I am cooking now and I have bee doing so since last month as I told you I have bought a cooking range (nothing fancy, a small gas stove and some basic utensils). So, now the food isn't a problem. I wish that there was some good Internet speed here so that I could spend some more time in researching on the i-net. Anyways, our humans' list of wishes is longer than the Great wall of China, so I better not mention that.
