Lazy Days ...

By
People have sometimes asked me ... hows lyf in Mumbai ...

To tell you in short ...

I dont like the city that much ...
from the HUGE crowds in local trains ...
to the always hot temperature ...
to the local language of marathi (which I m trying to decipher by the way but still haven't been successful completely ... some words have been understood ...) ...

I got sick in the 1st month that I came here ... had to take a leave of 3 days ...

And then there is the work load ... COMPLETELY DIFFERENT FROM IMT ...

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Wake up at 8 am at the latest ... just imagine it ... even for a 8:30 am class ... we wake up at 8:32 am ...

Then I have to get dressed... atleast theek thaak kapde pehno ... no going in lowers and slippers ... my fav attire of IMT ...

Finally Breakfast and then run to the railway stn. which thankfully is only 4 mins run away from where I stay ... so I get my regular 4 mins exercise for the day ... not 8 mins coz waapas aatey hue toh thaka hota hoon ... so exercise is out of question ....

local mein ghusnaa is a fight and talent in itself ... can write an essay on it ... but wont ... coz those who have travelled already know it ... and those who haven't need to travel to understand it ...
to just give you a picture ... imagine the nazi concentration camp ... that's the packing in a local train ...

then finally going to the office ... time of arrival : 10 -10:20 am ... from the hot exteriors of the city to the relieving interior of a centrally air cooled office ...

then a 10 hr work of the office ... CANT TALK ABOUT IT B'COZ OF CONFIDENTIALITY AGREEMENT ... just kidding ... can talk but wont ... coz I dont want to ... ;)

then by 8 pm I m drained ... and then I have to go back home ... another 1.5 hrs ... reacing there by 9:30 pm ... then dinner starts by 10:30 pm (the chefs there dont even start preparing the food before I come ... don't know why ... no matter what I tell them they continue this tradition) and ... finally after dinner finishes at 11:00 pm (sometimes later coz I m a slow eater) ... I watch a movie ... in dinon good movies are cuming at 11:00pm thanks to IPL ...

Finally ... go to sleep at 1:30pm ... have to coz another day is looming in my head ...

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

But then there is the dream of saturday and sunday ... the days I dream of ... no work ... only sleep ... on these days ... I go to sleep at 5:30 am.. dats in the morning... (if I want to) ... and wake up at 2pm-3pm on the afternoon .... then lunch ... then movies... games ... rest ... novels ... net ...

TIME FLIES ... and I am there again for the gruelling weekdays ...

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------




P.S. : I got my reward for the efforts ... the 1st quarter of my stipend ...

My First Blog ...

By
Hello Everyone ... This is your old friend Nick here ... If anyone is thinking that why have I started to blog then here is my answer ... I used to hear that everyone is blogging ... Amitabh Bcchan, Aamir Khan, Shahrukh Khan, Imran Khan (the Actor ... Don't know 'bout the cricketer), Narain Kartikeyan ... even people like Raghu of Roadies fame. Then I saw that I had a few of my friends that had started blogging too ... I saw this all and thought, "Well ... this is a good way to express yourself (I m not quoting Airtel). If you have something to say and feel anything ... why not keep it out in the open." If anyone wants to say anything then why wait ... JUST SAY IT !!! ... Well this is just the beginning ... Watch out this space for anything from my side ...

LONDON DREAMZ ...

It was a very Interesting experience for me ... I watched how people out there lived in such complete perfect order, no bending of rules. I watched places which looked as if cut out straight from heaven. I saw parliaments and prime minister of UK and also the royal family. I saw how Indians can be found everywhere. I got an idea of what Indian Food tasted (for the English and Norwegians). I had experiences on land, in air and in the Sea. I saw angelic eyes and Beautiful faces. People so interesting, worth being remembered for a lifetime. I saw what life was for them and what stark differences were there from our lives, yet how similar. And yes, A Royal Tribute to a King ... A King of Hearts ... The King of Pop ... A Deserving Farewell ... The tribute performed by the Royal Guards and Royal Band at the Change of Guards ceremony at Buckingham Palace!!! Royal Guards playing Thriller, Dangerous, Bad, Jam, Invincible ... in front of a capacity crowd ... WHAT A SIGHT !!! I saw all kinds of p...
