I forgot to tell you about my 1st Term Break to Horsley Hills. It's a really small hill station on the border of Andhra Pradesh and Karnataka. Only 2 attractions there...the hill that overlooked a valley and gave that feeling of danger at times (if you slipped, you may roll down very far :D) AND the wind. The cool wind penetrated your soul and made you feel like everything is so simple in life. Life had just come to a stand still...such peace!
Plus, I joined in on probably one of the stupidest plans ever...
We decided that we wanted to see the sunrise because the sunset was soooo amazing. Someone got the bright idea that we should just stay at the cliff overnight. As it got colder and colder, few accepted defeat but others refused. A few of us at least accepted that we need something to stay warm. (Many may think that this is where we start a bon fire, etc.... well no, it's not because it's really windy + cold....remember!) So, I suggested that we go back to our hotel rooms and grab the sheets and comforters. We decided to sleep on an incline of about 30degrees covered in sheets and comforters, and pillows (need comfort after all!). If you didn't sleep with you feet firm against the ground...there was a chance of slipping.
I soon became a kulfi (aka ice cream) and gave up. We would come back early in the morning to see the sunrise. We woke up and it was still a bit dark outside. We threw the comforters over our heads and camped in our makeshift tent to wait 'til sunrise. The light filled the sky but no sunrise... we finally gave up and went back to sleep.
Before heading out, we came back one more time to pay homage to the cliff that uplifted our spirits from Term 1. What a wonderful experience and what an amazing company.
