ನಿನ್ನಂತ ಅಪ್ಪ ಇಲ್ಲ ;)

My father didn't tell me how to live; he lived, and let me watch him do it!!! ~ Clarence Budington Kelland

Looks like I and the author of this quote have father of similar nature!!! Not exaggerating but true... Few are people, who talk less and act more...and I am lucky to have a wondrous father!!!

Happy Father's day ಅಣ್ಣ... [oh yeah, thatz how I address my father ;) ]

PS: Thought to ponder upon "Do we really need a specific day to greet a father?!!" 

The vantages of riding!

It all started when the travel time consumption was 12.5% of a day!! I had strongly made up my mind not to depend on the company transport any more... With a strong opposition, I started commuting to office in my new " black scooty streak" [yeah right, if not a black santro, let me at least own a black scooty streak :P]

People always drop their jaw when thy come to know that i am riding from one extreme end of the city to an other extreme end. But, its also true that when you really like doing certain things, neither the complexities involved nor the disadvantages appear to be prominent.

Apart from the flexibility it offers, here are few thing that I would like to share about the vantages of riding ....

1. Firstly, let me say something about the "riding survey", yes, thatz how I decided to buy scooty streak :P . The signal at junction is the right place for performing a riding survey... If the person next to you owns a vehicle of your choice, why not conduct a survey??? Inquire about the mileage, performance... etc etc
2. Evoke you hobbies:

• Am i sounding crazy?? not really ... Following are some photos that I captured while riding :)

• Also, listen to the music of your choice, it makes your ride more pleasurable :) hmm... how about giving a bit of work to your vocal chords??? wow...Juz like a bath-room singer you can be entitled to the "riding singer" title too...

3.Time management while riding:

• Plan the work that has to be done for the day, It could be a reminder mail, a meeting invite, MOM whatever!!! In a way, riding keeps you more organized.
• "Is your after office hours discussion (office politics/gossip :P) consuming the quality time that you spend at your home? If yes," Talk when you ride" hahaha, an inverse ideology of "Walk when you talk" !!!
  Disclaimer: " Talk when you ride" concept is subjected to risk, please be aware of the risk before you follow ''

4. Psst...Riding is also a platform to vent out your frustration!!
5. Interaction with unknowns: A waving kid in a school bus, or an old man who transforms to a traffic police to cross the road...will always leave a smile amidst the tension. :)

6. Over and above, you can judge a person based on how he rides/drives!!! Juz give a thought about it :D

Having an elder sister, is like having two mothers of different generation.... Trust me, they easily understand a mother's thoughtful thought and the younger ones contemporary thought as well!! In short, u can juz say they are the perfect interface!! ;)

Many a times, the significant amount of experience she owns, makes the path you traverse, crystal clear and trouble free...

Here are the collection of a my fav quotes on sister:

1. Sisters never quite forgive each other for what happened when they were five... :D:D
2. What's the good of news if you haven't a sister to share it?
3. A sister smiles when one tells one's stories - for she knows where the decoration has been added.
4. My sister taught me everything I really need to know, and she was only in sixth grade at the time. "How true!!"
5. If your sister is in a tearing hurry to go out and cannot catch your eye, she's wearing your best sweater.
6. I know my older sister loves me because she gives me all her old clothes and has to go out and buy new ones.

And here comes the lovely one...

"You keep your past by having sisters. As you get older, they're the only ones who don't get bored if you talk about your memories."

hmmm... now you know why we are awake the whole night! ;)
