(Time: 1st January, 2008) Many people were busy celebrating New Year 2008 but I was busy in packing my stuff to go to Damak. I took a night bus from Kalanki and got ready for Damak. I did not get the proper seat though I was assured by the travel agent that I would get a comfortable seat at the front next to the driver. The assurance did not work well since I had to sit with an old man squeezing my ever-slim body. The old man was not happy with the situation since he was also guaranteed that he would get a deluxe seat. “This is what guaranteed-deluxe seat in New Nepal!!!” I thought. I did not want to be a trouble maker for the old man. So, I moved at the back of the bus. I was happy to find a free space there (where I could maintain my space!!!) at the back-side of the bus. I was bit relaxed thinking that I had enough space if I wanted to sleep. I was going to be my long-night bus tour. I was happy about my new destination and travel. I was not that enjoying the travel since I could not see anything outside because of the darkness. At night when everyone started taking nap, I tried lying on the last seat of the bus where many passengers could fit into. Eventually, I realized that I won't be able to sleep because last seat always jolts too much. Learned a lesson. "Never take a last seat when you travel long." Within 21 months stay at Damak, I travelled on the bus only twice (long travel). Didn’t have much idea, how eastern part of Nepal look like.....I was excited about it. AND then all these HAPPPPPPPEEENNNNEEED.......to be continued.
