Suburban Evolution.

After a short and spicy meal at the end of the day, I sat down on the bean bag beside my father feeling quite satisfied. Just the my mom then pointed out the "Harris Park Journo" a local newspaper for harris park she picked up on her way home. Harris Park has its own local newspaper? I was curious.

I had realised how much of harris park had changed since we had lived there... the new and excessive line of indian restauraunts and the recent influx of indian international students. It almost feels like an indian state with hindi as its main language. [Must learn hindi!]

Picking up the newspaper, i had a few laughs over the types of articles and photos. The main focus would have been on indian culturalism and education... fine dining experienceds followed by dance classes and music (vocal classes). Of course, the private tutoring for maths and science (no english available). BUT the best part was the second last page, which at first i thought was another article but soon realised its creative essence.

The article named "Internet Cafe 3", i assume was part three of a series of creative chapters to a story. Since i hadnt read before i wouldnt be able to comment overall. however, what i had read was enough to tell me to stop and laugh hysterically. A girl who arrives at sydney leaving her family behind realises the difference between Australia and India.... sound familliar to you? As the passage continues she over reacts to a "boyfriend" situation. At this point i threw my hands in the air folded the newspaper and laughed. Part 4 could only be revealed in the next issue.

Harris Park has changed dramatically... for the better or worse? Only time will tell!
