RAIN RAIN GO AWAY OR DO YOU DESERVE TO STAY

By -
Until a couple of weeks ago I had made it up in my mind to write about the devastating rains ruining my vacations. From the season of love it had turned into a weapon of mass destruction for all us Mumbaikars. Every single plan was cancelled as it would rain heavily in the morning and then the media asked everyone to stay indoors. Thanks to the same rains that the internet connection was unstable and I was too bored to type on the blogger app. I had to use a 3G net pack for clash of clans. *cries* Stupid rains! It can be justified why this city started hating this season so much by looking at these pictures. Trains halted, offices closed,people trapped,cars turning into amphibians it was all happening here!



I'm sure you've seen many of these and get a gist of what I mean.

So here I was; irritated by this shitty weather but then I took a hike to my village. Mostly because I have become a jobless jack these days. Now, I have no photography skills nor do I own a camera neither is this some tourist location. Here's what I managed to capture of the landscape that stood before me....










 Trust me ,I've been to this place before during my summer vacations when I was a child and those mountains used to look barren and dry as hell.
All of us have seen a child cry. The child cannot speak or maybe cannot express something through speech. So the child seeks attention to get what he wants by crying out loud. Maybe, that is what nature is doing. Trying to speak to us through rain.Leaving it on us whether to choose the ugly or good side of nature to abide by. Either we follow the laws of nature or let nature have it's way with us. We may have to let go of certain possessions but not getting in the way of nature is our best chance to survive. Look at what our selfish actions have got us to so far......
Here's a beautiful poem :  
 LET IT RAIN
Let it rain, let it rain
On the wintry withered earth
Let the rain take away the pain
From my weary heart
Happiness is not the gift of love
Neither is the pitiful pain
The bequest of love is nothing but love
Let it rain, let it rain
On the sleepy land, trees and flowers
Over my inspiring spirit
Let the rain clasp thy nature's
Rhythm, with my heart-beat; 
Let it rain, let it rain
On my soul silent and still
Let the rain loose thy rein
On my emotions rousing
For in the rain I see you my love
O clasp me to your bosom
Let the rain take me to you my love
And bring me back my song.

The rainy days

By -
So you have been up to some interesting shenanigans lately? Traveled somewhere cool, met someone famous, cooked something special, went to a sheesha place with friends? Obviously, you posted about it all on Instagram or somehow somewhere got a fix for your FOMO. This is the time we live in, it has become so banal to see these "insta worthy" moments. Is this the new ordinary? ..........It was a mild Saturday noon and the calendar approached the end of Fall, having recovered from the Friday Night and bored out of my mind I decided to do what had now become a sporadic habit in the last few months. Go people-watching on Pearl street. It was just a 15-minute bike ride but was enough to become airheaded and I started wondering how I'd started to indulge in this activity which I'd perhaps have detested a couple of years ago. There are times when you just don't feel like watching something, reading something, going to the gym or a hike. You just wanna be there, existi

A Bazaar Meetup

The majestic skyline in the backdrop is looking down at me. I have always enjoyed the shade of the concrete jungle and living here is like dream come true. Its Thursday and being a creature of habit, I start walking towards the weekly street bazaar. I have not bought anything here per se. It has been years since Whole Foods has been looting my whole salary, but the Gyros and Pretzels are really to die for and incentive enough to want to venture onto the streets. Besides, all the dope stories I keep hearing about people having some really paranormally ludicrous experiences, a couple of them from my friends and colleagues about how something happened right here, in this very bazaar which left them aghast, have me intrigued and so I return back to have my own! It has been almost two years of these weekly walks and each visit has only furthered my belief that there is some correlation between the stories I have heard and the Marijuana legalization wave, which swept the world about

Scoring 320+ on the GRE

By -

Hi,  I recently gave the GRE on 18th August. Call it a paradoxical chimera but I was able to score above my target score; at the same time I knew what question had gone wrong as soon as I left the exam center. I used to read a lot of articles about how people prepared for the exam and they did actually help me a lot with my planning. So to give back something in return, sharing my experience below! First, my score: 326 Quant: 167 Verbal: 159 AWA: 4.5 Mock test score at the beginning of preparation: 310. Scoring a 320 on the GRE is not really that difficult. Trust me! Why? I myself am an average student and cannot concentrate for long hours. However, the GRE is a lot different from all your other exams. With proper and gradual mastery of the required skills one can be the master of this domain. Without much dilly-dally, let's start! Pre-requisites: GRE tests the skills you have been using since 6th or 7th grade. This applies to the quant as well as verbal section. No
