Miss - No miss

Its been around three months since I came back from US and was wondering what I am missing and what I am not missing. I had the similar feeling, when I went to US about things I missed from India. Now it is the other way around.

People always worry about adjusting to new place and wish to stay with the surrounding they are comfortable with. But due to our human nature, it does take us much time to get adjusted to a new surrounding quickly and develop comfort zone around it. So, in reality, fear of new thing is just an illusion.

Here is what I think I am missing the most from my stay in US

- SouthPark: The one TV series I watched and enjoyed the most. The most intelligent comic scripts I ever watched.

- The daily show with Jon Stewart: Not a single day went without watching this show. This man is THE best. Thoroughly enjoyed watching this during Presidential election 2008.

- Public Library: Awesome public system, that was of great help to me. You can get number of books, videos from here for free. Source of countless movies I watched and books I read during my stay.

- Family Guy: How can I not miss this. Ridiculously, grossly funny. Don't go by its name. Its definitely not to be watched with family:) You can never be sure of, whats gonna come next:)

- Driving pleasure and driving discipline: One I miss dearly everyday on Pune roads

- Biking: Though I am making up for this by biking in India, but the biking there was much more fun

- Customer care experience: Especially if you put it in India's context

- Internet speed:)

- Work culture, time I used to get outside work to lot more.

And what am I not missing:

- Sean Hannity, Rush Limbaugh, Bill O'reilly, Glen Beck, Ann Coulter: You get the idea:)

- Freezing Cold: Oh yeah!

- Just witnessing the political polarization, anti-Obama conservatism, health care mess etc.

- Distance from Family and friends
