Random Thoughts...

I just realised that 38.7% of May has already evaporated and i have not posted a single word on my blog this month! Kaush wanted me to write a travelogue on my Delhi and Gwalior trip. I contemplated on the idea of writing and then realised that a train journey is not even 10% as exciting as the bike adventure! I mean there are no instances of dozing off on bike, no cuttin chai at road side stalls, no off road site seeing and no clicking of snaps at every odd location! I can directly compare the difference between the two journeys with a typical art film and an out and out masala movie of Rajnikanth or Mithun. The former is as lifeless as a stone. It just starts..crawls and then ends. Similar is the case with train journey. They start from the station, run on the tracks like a mad bull and reaches the destination and unless u have the company of a Jaspal Bhatti or a Johny Lever, you are bound to get bored in a 17 hour saga. On the other hand, Rajni's movies are full of hi teach dramas with twists and turns every two minutes and same applies for Bike trips too..You never know which scenic beauty is ahead of you!

This time i was in Delhi after a gap of good two years as Mumbai was keeping me busy for this duration and i must say it has changed a lot. No No..It is still hotter than mercury but it is growing infrastructure wise. Work was going on in every nook and corner for Delhi metro, still there were no traffic jams! Also, good results of CNG are coming up now. It has done wonders to the environmental scene of Delhi. I mean now you dont leave home in Delhi with a fear that you might be suffering from Asthama once you come back from market! This is what a political will with the good intentions can do to a city as big as Delhi. I still remember there was a huge hue & cry when the decision was taken to make CNG mandatory but now everybody is realising the long term benefits. I am sure we will have a different face to our capital in 2020.

While i was travelling back to Mumbai, i missed the VBM ( Kaush: Next time i will decide the time.)and after going through the details on some of the blogs like JI's, Saba's and Kaush's i think i have missed something great. I have to be there next time.

Although i am just back after visiting my family and infact my Maa and sister are here with me in Bombay for a short visit, still i am realizing that the life is again taking a monotonous shape with nothing exciting on cards. This is what i hate most-- A routine life. Probably i am dull as all my 4 flatmates will be leaving for different companies by the end of this month. The other day i was discussing with Anurag to come out of this loop and as always we contemplated on the possibilities of a visit somewhere. Destination undecided and even dates are not planned yet. We are planning to wait for the monsoons as its quite hot on road these days...

So now waiting for the first rains....
