Weather...can they really be forecasted?!

So BBC has been pretty good with their forecasts.Very frankly,all the while i have regarded weather forecasts as a total waste of time and energy.Atleast whenever I have kept in mind the prediction and watched out for the same the following day,it never has been right.

But the other day I caught up with the weather forecasts on BBC,a very rare thing me watching TV,and they had predicted sandstorms in the Middle East followed by heavy rains in the west of India after a couple of days.Both were right!infact they were right about the days too.I am not sure if both are conicidences,cos I am pretty impressed with this one already!Moving forward you know what I would want to keep checking on!

To the people in Mumbai,who have basic comfort,accept the situation,keep calm and take a break from routine.Look at it as Mother Nature's way of putting a halt to the mechanical life that we lead.Sit back,put your feet up,enjoy the rains,converse with your neighbours or those whom you have missed out on in your routine.Couple of days shouldnot make a huge difference if you do so.Cos the more you play around with nature,the more trouble it will take you through!

Suddenly I feel there's time in my hands....the following thoughts cross my mind... - that model on the cover looks awesome, how is that so? - if they actually airbrush pictures , then how come there is a good looking category? - i want to see a brand new juice in the market,tired of the same old ones... - i feel like shopping often.its more a thought than action. - i like clothes that some other women wears...i want stuff like those! - how come there is traffic only when i want to drive? - water is good for me, very good....keep drinking..has anyone tried flavored water? - is flavored water as good for health? - how come some advertisements are soooo good? is it just one person or a team? - when everyone is busy how come i have time? - how is it that my phone rings only when i want to sleep or when i am occupied? - why do i get tanned so quickly? - how come technology is always surprising to me? - why didn't i get into sports or music when i was younger? - why is it that some ...

The 1969 reunion!

My dad is currently enjoying "retirement", he recently tells me that he is soon having a 1969 college reunion! While just hearing that got me excited, the stories of how he found his college mates after 42 years was even more interesting. To begin with, he bumped into one of them and that kick started the whole process. They chatted about what they have been upto so far in life and if they were in touch with others. From there on, one thing led to another, he tells me. He met up with a few who never left town and stayed on for all these years. Today, they have managed to arrange a gathering of 25 classmates, all this without the involvement of Internet at all! Dad tells me that a couple of never touched a computer! That just concludes that the Internet is overrated and its sad that even if we are equipped with more tools, no one has time for another. So meeting up is pretty much a big deal in today's world. So proud of the 1969 batch!

Interesting traffic discoveries...

Now that I am preparing myself to be equipped with a local licence, u can imagine me concentrating on the differnces in the road, compared to UAE.So here goes some interesting things i find on the roads here:- a) You may make right turns on red light on most roads here, after you check traffic for urself! b)The names of the street are parallel to the road, so look right or left not straight for directions! c) there are Sensors just behind the stop line at traffic lights, that allows the system to run accordingly--so cool! d) i didnt find a single cab or bus near my place! i think its cos my area is not city! :-( e)i like the center lane idea, that allows u to stay on it and wait until u take a left turn safely!
