You Are Invited!!

It all started around seven months back, when our parents exchanged our phone numbers and then passed it on to us. Yes people , marriage was definetly on cards. As things would have it, early may this year Ruchi and I had our respective phone numbers. We spoke couple of times over the phone before we decided to meet in person. And one fine day, around mid may, I landed to Pune to meet her. We spoke in length at Barista , and by the time it was time to say tata , both of us knew that we had found the one. Yes , we had found someone to grow old with , and share the set of artificial teeth when we are old. Next six months were roller-coster ride for us. With all roothna-manana to sweet nothings. From our dreams to all our nightmares.All our similarities to differences. All success and failures.All apprehension and reassurance.Irritation and affection. We had it all. Amidst rising phone bill, late night phone calls and leg pulling of colleagues we got engaged on Aug 4...

Surely You're Joking Mr. Feynman!!

What a man Richard P Feynman , 1965 Physics Nobel laureate , was. As Hans Bethe , another Nobel laureate mentions " There are two types of genius. Ordinary geniuses do great things, but they leave you room to believe that you could do the same if only you worked hard enough. Then there are magicians, and you can habe no idea how they do it. Feynman was a magician. " Few quotes from the book of same title as the title of this post: Be explicit. You can not just hope that I've cought on by osmosis. :) The first principle is that you must not fool yourself - and you are the easiest person to fool. So you have to be very careful about that.

Everybody needs help sometime!!

What a delight - (1)

To watch Ghulam Ali performing. He was here in Hyderanad as part of TOI's Hyderabad Fetival!!

Vishy is no. one!!

At last. For very long, as long as I have known Viswanathan Anand as Indian chess player at international level, he has been no. 2 player in international chess. Finally in the latest list of FIDE ranking he gains the title. Congartulations Vishy!!

Hyderabad gives a damn!!

To the bandh called upon in support of reservation. Unlike Chennai where people supported the move (going by pictures of deserted road which otherwise used to witness traffic jams) here in Hyderabad traffic condition was as usual. Only thing missing from the road was rtc buses. One thing which I didn’t anticipate was police machinery doing their job. You can see traffic cops doing their usual duty despite the fact the bandh is backed by Congress, the ruling party at state as well at center. Way to go Hyderabad .

Things To Do - (3)

Watch Aurora australis/Aurora borealis .

Things to learn - (1)

More dance steps !!

Travelling in a khatara bus and listening to hindi songs cassestte in which small dialogues from movie precedes the song reminiding you the good ol days :)

Doctor's marriage!!

Recently been to Mathura to attend a friend's marriage. That was over all a good trip. One thing that stands out is that during the course of the trip I used almost all modes of transportation on land and air. The trip started from Hyderabd on 9th march and culminated back to Hyderabad on 12th march.Hyderbad - (by flight) -> Delhi - (by car) -> Mathura - (by bus) -> Agra - (used cycle riksha when in the town, by train) -> Hyderbad (by auto back to residence)!! It was nice attending doc's marriage at Mathura on 10th night. Here is wishing all the best and a very happy married life to you Doc and Kopal!!
