Tourist in own city!

Hmm....sorry for not posting anything since last Friday. Actually, the thing was I was too happy with my result but at the same time confused about choosing a good college and field of my interest. This is the reason which drove me towards an ultimate college hunt today! Yeah...I was a tourist in my own city, strange but true. First we traveled from Mira Road to Vasai to have a look at Vartak college (Ahhh!......this college was totally rural kinda). 

After that we boarded a train from Vasai to Bandra and the fun we had after that can't be described in words, literally! But reaching Bandra was a strenuous task in itself as it required traveling half an hour in those crowded locals, a really challenge! We went there (Bandra) to see St. Andrews college and Rizvi college but the real fun began when we were trying to find our way toward Rizvi college after  because we didn't had a single penny (hmm......not penny actually, Indian currency is called Rupees) left with us to board a bus after giving away that precious Rs. 11/- to that Autoricksha-waala to reach St. Andrews college. We were asking directions from the local people there like crazy! 

We kept walking, walking, walking and walking till we saw Bandra Promenade and there I was, photographing the sea and the rocky way like crazy, along with enjoying those cool winds blowing through me. Then by asking our way we finally reached our second destination i.e. Rizvi College but the way to that college is frankly very long and cumbersome if everyday travel is taken into consideration. No frets! But the fun I had at Bandra Bandstand was totally awesome.

 Now it was time to go back home (5.45pm .. :O I had said my mum I'll be back by 3.00pm!) but as I said earlier, I had no money nor my friend had any so ultimately we boarded the train back home without tickets! (Don't get me wrong, I had to do it because I didn't had any money with me, and that was the reason I was even hungry till evening since, 11.00 in the morning. Well I had only cornflakes in my breakfast! I not at all encourage this thing to be done by anyone. I'll make sure I carry enough money with me if I plan to travel that much in near future). 

And what else? Ahha... pictures! Have a look at them... 

These are the salt pans near Mira Road Station.

Bandra Bandstand! awesome naa?

Well, this is warli art (a kind of Indian art thing) but here it is done on the walls with oil paint!
Actually, Its 1.00am now (way too late) so I am cutting short this post. Hope you don't mind. Ahh....my legs have turned sore as a result of walking too much! Once again sorry for a short post. But don't forget to give some feedback......

Review: Himalaya Acne-n-Pimple Cream

Image
Back in the day when I was facing my share of troubled skin, I had come across this Himalaya product in the trolley of a fellow shopper during a grocery haul. Post that initial sighting, I quickly marched to the relevant aisle to get hold of this product. Honestly, I have zero recollection of how this cream reacted to my skin and had almost forgotten that I've used this cream in my war against acne until Himalaya Herbals contacted me to review the product. Now, my face is no longer covered with zits of varying intensity all the time. Hence, I was on the verge of declining the opportunity. But the universe works in mysterious ways. My brother got a terrible breakout and thereby became a perfect specimen to examine the working of this cream on!  Product's Claim Himalaya Acne-n-PimpleCream promised to control pimples and scars while keeping the skin soft. Himalaya says that this product is a formulation containing Silk Cotton Tree, Lentil, Aloe Vera and Saurashtri,

Chapter 2: Such A Long Journey

You can read the first chapter here ) __________ “The number you are trying to call is currently busy, please try again later.” was what Shekhar could hear on the other end of his call. He sighed and assured himself that indeed she must be busy at work.  “I’ve boarded the train back home, and will reach by tomorrow. Call me ASAP.” he typed in a jiffy and sent the message to Tara, his wife, and slouched in his seat. He couldn’t help but think of Tara and how strained their relationship has become, not that it had been a healthy one erstwhile, but now it took a lot of effort even to communicate! They went days and sometimes even weeks without seeing each other although they lived together under the same roof; she'd be up and out even before the sun’s first rays hit the earth and home a
