Hold On Tight

I definitelty enjoy working for the Deccan Herald and feel very lucky for the opportunity.
There are three ways the journalists get their stories: (1) press conferences, (2) assigned reports, (3) translating letters sent by surrounding districts to English.
In general, reporters start work after lunch and end at about 11:00/ 11:30 p.m.

After dinner last night, my friend and I were walking back when I suddenly felt a hard force on my purse. Two guys were passing us on a motorcycle and the one sitting on the back tried to steal my purse- including my passport, money, cell phone, camera, journal and my identity !! Fortunately, I was able to hold on to my purse and scream, so the guys took off.

On that note, I'm not feeling very well today. I was coughing all night and have a headache. I got some medecine after work, so I hope I'll get better this weekend. We planned to drive to Ooty tomorrow and take some local trips Sunday.
