With ambitions aplenty
I stare at this visa print
I am headed to this hyped country
With a hope of making some mint
White carpet welcome is embellished with snow showers
Half a smile of achievement escapes
As I step out to start a new phase
Half a smile of anxiety follows
Undoubtedly beautiful is the place where I reside
But I get to appreciate it only on the bus ride
A moment is all I get to embrace the sunshine
Then I am lab stuck from noon to nine
Back to school after a long break
It’s so different and hard to take
I am alienated in this alien place
You guessed it right my grades are at stake
I can’t handle this pressure I want to flee
It has been just a few days but I’m missing home already
To make it worse, I can spot Verilog where ever I see
Is it trying to invoke the nerd in me?
I headed to this hyped nation
I chose books over a beer pint
But my craziness is retreating hint by hint
Am I really enjoying my new stint?
