Sett(l)ing down

Writing something or connecting with you all is actually my necessity! but you see... its not among "food, water or shelter" and hence I sometimes procrastinate to do this necessary thing on right time.. :P
But better late than never, right?

So......................
I remember I learnt about 6 continents(?? Either my memory is weak or with population  n pollution even continent count has changed over the years :P) Anyways.. that's not the topic!So I learnt in some standard that in Antarctica, there is 6 months day and 6 months night....Since then.. I had imagined about this..of being in sunlight for whole 6 months.. and in full blackout for next 6! 

It seemed to be horrible in my imagination!(and why not... I used to imagine sunlight like 12 in noon for whole 6 months and black as 2 in midnight for another! poor imaginations powers!!! :P))

But yesss.... I 'AM' experiencing it now in some sense!

I get up in morning because Sun rays are already spread all over the house even crossing the barrier of curtains...
I go to office.. and Sun is still there somewhere in sky(somewhere because.. I don't easily understand the directions here.. its not as clear as its in India.. we are not near equator na!!!)
I come back from office.. prepare the dinner.. and he is still there..
Then I have my dinner(by closing the curtains just to 'feel' that its dinner!and not lunch) but he is stilllllll there!
I go to bed.. and sleep... and I am afraid to say butttt.. he is still there! :(

Yeah.. I must agree now.. that not all the time he is equally bright(sunny!) but ultimately its a 'day' feeling from start to end of our 'own day'..
And that's his routine for whole 6 months!(exception.. climate changes due to global warming..  :P )

But isn't that interesting and funny at the same time...

Interesting.. as I could only imagine this(as badly as I wrote above) in India..
and Funny... coz.. day never ends!!!! (between the lines it means.. you have so much time, all the time) ;)

hehe... 
There is a huge diversity in how nature treats the various areas of world, right? ;)

Sometimes I question myself.. Am I making a small thing big or its really a big change..
But you know for me.. yes.. it is!
I am still a newcomer here... :):)
