i'm back... i'm back ... i'm back to blogging .. yeah! (tryin to rhyme to MJ's I'm bad song)
sorry for taking such a looooooooooooooooooooooooooong gap. Time kab kaise guzargaya pata hi nahi chala. (nice excuse na? ;)
Well... I was caught up my routine schedule... so I won't talk much about it because I will start worrying about my upcoming assignments. But otherwise, I had a gala time (that includes the scorching heat too) in the past 2-3 weeks.
# We went to a national park ( two weeks ago) and discovered that there was a hiking trail. So we decided to give it a try and it was kinda difficult for a first timer (me ;)) There were all sorts of insects and that made it even more difficult for me. I couldn't even sit and rest for a while. We reached the top of the mountain and omg! the view was breathtaking. On one side the view of the bay was awesome! and to the other side it was all mountains... amazing! I wanted to spend the night there, but again, the insects. eeeeww! ( check out the pictures here)
# For the first time in 3 years of my stay in US, I have never seen a hot summer.. especially in Hayward. This city is supposed to be cool in summer too because of the fog from the bay. Thanks to Global warming, it was so damn hot from July 21st till 26th and also thanks to my apartment managers, we don't have AC in any apartment. It was as if I was sitting right on a hot pan burning myself. I used to shut all the windows by 10 am and cover the windows with wet bedsheets and sit in front of a small fan! The temparature wouldn't drop even by midnight. Oh! and to top it there was no power during the peak hours and people would rush to the nearby park and sleep there! That was the worst heat wave... kasam se India ki yaad aa gayi.
The heat wave will be back AGAIN during this month! Oh God! please I don't want to go through this again.
# Oh yes! about my previous assignment about Adolescents... its done! voooohhooo. Waiting for my professor to grade it. She better give me good grade, 'coz I spent a whole week and 2 straight days in scorching heat to finish it. Thanks to those who have taken the survey. It was like a bonus for our project.
# Last weekend, friday, we went to Mani Sharma 's music concert. I guess you all know who mani sharma is ! For those who don't know, he's a music director (focus mainly in Telugu and Tamil). The program was organized by BATA... nah not that shoe company BATA , its Bay Area Telugu Assicoation
.. pic's available at my photo blog. The next day we had a get together.. not with Mani sharma .. but with friends. A birthday party.
# I was preparing for my exam on Wednesday( aug 1st) and suddenly I felt a jerk for 2 seconds. First I thought I was sleeping and thus my hand slipped. But again, the whole house jerked suddenly. My first thought was my neighbors moved something and thus the jerk. My second thought was is it an earthquake? That thought really scared me to death. Uday didn't feel anything 'coz he was in a deep sleep. I woked him, but he was not attentive. So I decided to forget about it. Next day evening, we were discussing and uday suddenly said: there was an earthquake in Napa Valley (which is roughly 40 miles away from our place) and people in hayward felt it strongly than in Fremont. My nose was red and had misty eyes. I realized that sudden jerk was indeed an earthquake. I told him, he sort of yelled at me , why I didn't wake him
(refer line 4) since her realized that he wanted another bahana.. so he said .. its because of you, we don't watch news on TV. Anyways, I had a good laugh and at the same time... nervous... what if another one occurs? Looked up on the net to prepare for an earthquake and didn't sleep well last night because of the fear.
# Lastly, Happy birthday to SS! I mean to Sweet Simplicity. My blog is one year old now.vooooohhhoooo.. Last week was busy, so I'm celebrating SS birthday this weekend. Everyone is invited to the party.
