~~How to be happy~~

With six subjects this semester our weekdays are filled with assignments, classes,readings projects, etc. Its kind of good keeping you occupied most of the time.
One of my class mate asked me today

"How come you are always happy?" I asked is there anything wrong with it !

No no how you are able to sustain it?
I replied I enjoy life at the moment not worry about past or future.

What you do when you get problems?
I said I dont see problems as problems but think what is the solution for the problem.

How were my replies ;)

~~Walk along the river side drive~~

NYC is one of the few places in US where people still walk. If you love walking then its a walkers paradise. My apartment is located just 100 meters from the river Hudson and when I get bored or had nothing else to do on a weekend I used take a take a walk along the river. There are two ways to take this walk one inside the park and other on the side of the river ,so while going in I will take the route via the river and while coming back I used to take route via the park.



The good thing about the walkway is that when you enter in the riverside there is no exit until 1.5 miles away,so its total of 3 miles to and fro .Its a wonderful time pass looking at birds,people with a pleasant breeze from the river.

~~10-10-10--great escape~~

If I was in India this should have been my D-day but thank God I m in NYC. Its really great to be in big apple enjoying life! I think its better to write assignments and take exams at least now :)

~~Visit to post office & library~~

I had to send checks to few of my friends,so the first thing I did was to transfer few cash into the current account and went to nearby post office to buy stamps and envelopes. When I was in the post office I saw an advertisement encouraging people to buy history stamps and funny stamps. I had little idea about what will be history stamps ,so when reached the counter I asked for funny stamps and got the below sheet.


There is a New York public library near my house.Since my college library is huge and extensive I never had the need to go there. But today since I was little bit free I decided to check out.Even though it was small it had some decent collection. I became a member and borrowed a book back home.

~~Time Travel Tag~~

As per Sheila's request doing this tag and I really enjoyed it!

Time Travel Tag

Emily's Rules:

1. Depending on your age, go back 10, 15, 20, or even more years.
2. Tell us how many years back you have travelled and why.
3. Pretend you have met yourself during that era, and tell us where you are.
4. You only have one "date" with this former self.
5. Answer these questions.

Q 1. Okay, as we start, what period is it and how old are you?
A. I will go back to the year 1997 when I was in eight standard.

Why ? That was the year when my YYS watched P.Chidambaram then finance minister of India unveiled the dream budget for India which paved way economic reforms in the country. Though I didn't understand what that budget meant to India at that time ,it was during those days I started liking to be economics and wanted to be one.

Q 2. Would your younger self (YYS, from here) recognize you when you first meet?
A. Since I m still younger , my YYS will definitely recognise me !

YYS: I never know I had a twin brother!

Me :yea buddy being happy and making others happy keeps you young and fit.

Q 3 . Would YYS be surprised to discover what you are doing job wise?
A. YYS: innumma nee paduchutu irruka ? enna maari innum vetti payal aa than irrukiyaa

He wouldn't believe that I m studying now.

Q 4. What piece of fashion advice would you give YYS?

A. YYS: Why people always look at me, is that anything to do with my dressing style?

Me: buddy people look at you not not because of your dress ,remember whatever dress you wear it will be looking good on you and get used to the stares you get all the way you grow up!

Q 5. What do you think YYS is most going to want to know?

A. I like him to ask "What good thing you did to change the world in to a better place "

but actually he will ask "Did you have any girl friend or met any girl ?"

Q 6 . How would you answer YYS's question?

A. Will say to him I still younger too early to find one ;)

Q 7 . What would probably be the best thing to tell YYS?
A. Don't study too much and waste your time ! you will never know how much time you are going to waste studying useless stuff in the coming days ;)

(Maybe I spoiled him that time itself :) )

Q 8. What is something that you probably wouldn't tell YYS?
A. It will take 13 more years to study what you really liked!

It wouldn't have made any difference as YYS(even present self) used to enjoy the life at that moment and not worry about the future!

Q 9. What do you think will most surprise YYS about you?
A. He would be wondering how the hell did I manage to get into an Ivy league college. He would be really proud that I am doing what he dreamed to do!

Q 10. What do you think will least surprise YYS?
A. He wouldn't be surprised to see me still enjoying life as he used to do ,getting updates of his friends at that time and how I still manage to keep in touch with them.

Q 11. At this point in your life, would YYS like to run into "you" from the future?
A. Maybe next year because even my present self dont know what I am going to do next year.

My tag , I would like Krishna to continue this tag,as his last post was talking about his younger self.
