!!sister power!!

I might just be losing my blogoholic tendencies. I have so many posts in my head from the last 4 days that I was in NYC but i'm too tired to track back the million thoughts.

I had the most fulfilling time with my sister - the best we are capable of having at this point in time.
We did the laughs, the confessions, the giggles and the confrontations.
We did the walks, the talks, the shops and the hops.
We travelled on the train, in the bus, by the taxis and on our feet.

We spent this morning having desert at Serendipity (yes, the one in the film by the same name). It was spectacular.
We circled Manhattan on a cruise two days back - we saw the famous statue of liberty which made us both feel sick somehow; we saw the building where our friends stay (rachael, monica, joey, etc.); we saw the financial district with the missing twin towers; we saw the beauty of new york city as evening dawned on us and lights glittered all around.
We had the most fun walk on 5th avenue late at night when all these famous expensive stores were closed down - we saw the Trump tower, the Disney store and other famous cars, clothes, shoes and jewellery stores.

I learnt more about her and hope she got to know me better too.

I have a strong feeling that she didn't get all that she had expected from the trip. I was afraid of this. With distance, people create romantic illusions about each other. It's only been four months but I could tell my sis had sort of forgotten how not-nice I am. I'm sure she knows now. I tried hard. But it was tough. Her monster-like energy levels and her obsessive cleaning around my house made me feel dizzy. Imagine B, what would you do if I came to your house and started cleaning around everywhere, all the time??! :)

So she's on her way home now - I'm sure counting every second before she is reunited with her 7 month old.
The last 10 days were full of ups and downs and in-betweens. Hoping the new year is just as colorful.. :)
