@ the city beautiful - I

           I don’t know from where to start, but so many experiences are weaved on the time net of the last week (not talking about SAP Netweaver ;) ) I have so many things to share and also I have free time, free laptop and comfortable guest house environment. So here I am sharing my some experiences at Chandigarh .             First new thing I came to know on the land of Chandigarh is from my cab driver on my way to company’s guest house from airport is that Chandigarh recently got an award of the cleanest city of India. Uncontaminated & traffic free roads are the biggest witnesses of the fact. The Mercedes standing next to our car caught our attention. But within 2 days presence of such cars became very ordinary.

This is something I wanted to write from long and now I guess the time is more appropriate as I am away from home for the first time for a long period.

And it is normally believed that the process of going away is painful to the person who is going away. On contrary to which I personally believe that it is more painful for them whom you leave.

    Friday I opened my notepad for my pending list of tasks, and I didn’t write anything official, instead I wrote my pending list of topics I want to blog. In addition to that, Papa gave me ultimatum to buy a new cell phone and this gave me one more topic to write ;-). One reason was also that I will be out of town for a month and my current phone doesn’t have multimedia, FM, camera or any other latest features, so he wants me to have a good phone with me while I go there. (For that also I had an argument that I already have a very good 12M camera and company of a great singer Mr. Songepedia –II, so I really don’t need it, but as a good kid I did not argue ;-) ). It was getting delayed from a long time. After all special people have a special choice... (In short phone select karvama bi nakhra ;-) ). And finally Nokia 5235 got an honor to be selected by me.         Now the real dilemma started when salesman asked me to give my SIM, so that he can start the phone and I said, “No, not m
