Home Coming to The Whitehouse

OK! its not really whitehouse types..
But its white and its our house .. so we affectionately call it our little
'whitehouse'.
4B2HK , with a front lawn ,duplex its not that little either :P. Its named 'Apoorva-Sandhya' after my bro and my mum.
Which means 'an evening likenever before' :D, enchanting ain't it?
Since its completion i was never fortunate to live here for considerable amount of time, I was forced to live in utterly puny and constricted rooms , all over the country , literally :(.
This time around also i don't have much time to enjoy here :( . Just few days then I am off to living in some dingy flat in a strange country.
I am trying to enjoy the max, whatever time I have here.
Sleeping peacefully , eating with full gusto ;), spending time with family.
But highlight of the day is the daily cycle ride that I undertake , through serene cantonment area nearby.
Pelting berries, riped by time and intoxicated by gravity, and swarming insects , who are just too eager to make an eye contact with me , fail to dampen my enthusiasm for riding along. This ride is kind of feeble attempt to shed the flab :) , so its being done religiously.
Last night I stepped out to the terrace sipping lemonade. I saw the moon , playing like a child in the sky , tossing and turning in its cloudy blankets. Sometimes it disappeared completely under them , all of sudden tossed them aside to reveal its full glory. The naughty breeze was gleefully playing its part.
I was at peace. I could'nt help but think , its good to be at Home.
Cheers!

Houte Route - Summary Post

It's a pretty popular walk from Chamonix (France) to Zermatt (Switzerland). In winters, it becomes a cross country ski route, but in summer, it transforms to a hiking route, which traverses through pretty high elevation, hence its called Houte Route (High Route). Unlike backpacking in the US, this backpacking was supposed to be much easier, as we were basically staying in hotels/dorms, and we didn't have to carry tents, sleeping bags, and food.    But, we were surprised how hard some of the hiking days were.  We were a group of 6 friends.  My wife (Mona) and I were the most "untrained hikers"; others in our group were more committed and better prepared than us. We expected to walk through Swiss meadows, mountain villages, hi-fi ing cows along the ways. Even though some days were exactly like that, around 1/3 of the trails were very tough and tested us physically and mentally.  Here is a very brief summary of our daily adventures on the trail. Day 1 : Chamonix ...

Love Quotient

This valentine go SentiMental …. This valentine treat your skin so that it glows…. Feel the Love in the air….. What are your plans for this valentine?? …….. Statements like these were booming on the air waves on every radio channel, while I was browsing through them traveling on bus to work yesterday.People surely know to cash in the madness associated with the valentine day.For a person, trickling through the quasi static traffic of Bangalore is a punishment bad enough, and for a single man listening to this sort of gibberish while doing that, is nothing short of torture.I turned off the radio for good, and played Hanuman Chalisa on my cell phone, I thought, its better to indulge in some devotion rather to get more irritated. And who is better than Lord Hanuman (bachelor for life) to distract ones mind from love-shove rubbish. Sadly this Love Bug came chasing me later in the day. When I have to attend a meeting whose theme was Love Quotient . I couldn’t escape reality this time; I had...

A slum dweller, without any formal education, knew all the answers to a quiz show. Latter he reveals that he knew the answers unconsciously from incidents and people around him. This was the premise of much celebrated movie in recent times. Can it be useful in real life? Mr. Toastmaster, fellow toastmaster and dear guests. In my opinion one doesn't have to be scholar and read thousands of books to be knowledgeable. The whole world can be your teacher, only if you behave like attentive students you stand to learn a world from them. Also to be knowledgeable is not merely to know facts and figures; one has to learn to behave wisely also. Could there be a better place to start learning than from one’s home. I have learnt a lot from my family. It’s said that mother is the first teacher, which is obvious, but in my case I am still learning from my mother. My mother in her 40’s, comfortably employed in government sector; choose to do her PhD at an age where most of women are worrie...
