Nanku gothilla...only God knows

Bangalore = Social Life for me...it was friends, cousins n new friends in summers, n now with my nice new job, it has also begun to mean auto drivers, retailers, co-passengers, bus conductors n jus abt anyone on the road (REALLY... ask my friend Paras!)...
"I lost my address...can I have yours?!!"
For those of you who are familiar with that pick up line, well try it at B'lore it might jus work!! My experience says that, if you happen to get really lost in Bangalore (which is very very easy considering that there are SOO many layouts, n layouts within layouts with umpteen main roads each having a handful of crossroads)...ok think ur quite lost now...anyways, like I was sayin if u r lost n u want some free entertainment so that u can laugh at yourself try asking someone the way... they either give u such bad directions that u even forget where u wanted to go or there are these ppl who will ask u SO many questions abt urself that its so difficult escaping from the spot...or worse still there r these ppl who will behave like u were actually talkin to urself n they jus happened to be there!
PG accomodations...Adithi Devo Bhava??
Before coming here, I always thought Paying Guest accomodation meant a nice family n nice home where u culd be one among the family n stuff...well the place I stay in is close to that, atleast for most of it (except that it is too much in the interior n power cuts r frequent when it rains) and I really believe I am lucky after seeing some other PGs with SriVi(for those of u who dont know thats my friend from BIM who stays with me)...my God how commercial can ppl get man...they actually have 2 beds (sorry 3, 1 with a bunker) in 600 sq. ft. of space...soo soo lousy, jus looking at those "hostels" which are called houses made me feel homesick...
sooo much that I was telling SriVi that if we really wanna look for acco we should probably advertise in Free Ads as follows:
"WANTED: An elderly couple who have space in their home and hearts for 2 working girls who want nuthin but good food and company. Money no bar."
Hopefully that shuld work...
Orkut...
All this brings me to think i should start a community "I hate Bangalore"...ok ok all u Bangalore lovers, thoda zyada ho gaya, I should make it "I hate Bangalore roadways"...and roadways includes the road, the traffic, the congestions etc...zaroor hoga already, I jus need to search!!

Hey every city is a package...if u like the place u gotta live with the good and the bad i guess..For example I Like bombay a lot..but if there is something that i hate abt bombay it would be the maddening crowd everywhere...however if it wasnt for so many ppl i dont think the city would be so much alive with so much energy...so in essence the good and the bad are two sides of the same coin...hey this is really philosophical...
anyway i see that in one shot u updated ur blog:)...
by the way speaking of philosophy and ur blog abt god..i would suggest u to read 'Illusions' by 'richard bach'..its a short book but it really delves deep into philosophy..try it...u might like it...
yeah, the concept of PG in b'lore is frightening! it's best to just find a flat and share it with friends.
i actually had the ideal PG in noida. it was awesome there ... old retired army couple .. part of the family, good food .. truly, it was home away from home!!
