Kites

In what is probably one of my most random posts. Here’s a Kite in the colors of the Indian Flag stuck on an AC.

What? I said it was random.

Free Cookie

I ran into quite a bit of good luck today.

20100610_001

You see, because along with my lunch order from Subway, I found a free Cookie.

Not just any cookie. A double chocolate chip cookie from Subway.

I like it when I run into this sort of good luck. Everyone does. It’s like Life suddenly reminds you that sometimes, you’ll just randomly get something that makes it all worth it.

And what could be more worth it, than a double chocolate chip cookie. Ah good times.

Updates

Updates. They’re all around us. On Facebook, on Twitter. On your phone when that annoying piece of crap app suddenly reminds you that it wont work without getting the update.

20100609_001

Well, it’s all well and good except when you dont receive those updates from people you considered important.

I have a couple friends who are in Delhi right now. I had a friend who was in India a couple weeks ago.

All this, but I’ve yet to receive any updates from them. Not a “Hey I’m in your town” or a “I’m in Delhi, we should meet up!”.

No none of that at all. And these are people I considered friends.

It feels unfortunate that i receive so many updates from all around. But for the ones I considered important. Ah but unlike that aforementioned piece of crap app, I dont need that update to continue my current state of life.

Because in this case, while an update would be nice, it just simply isnt necessary. Because someone somewhere decided it isnt.
At that point, when you realize that. That is an unfortunate reality. Maybe you need to look at how you classify those friends. Maybe they were unnecessary updates all along.

Rickshaws and Bollywood

And we’re back in the game.

Goodbye Camera Man

Ah I have to return the N86 back to Nokia today.

20100607_001

Woe is me. That phone was quite the picture taker, eh?

Yet we move on.

Breakfast At…. a Barista

Not as extravagant as Tiffany’s. But then again, this is a very tall glass for a cold coffee, eh?

060620103033

Yes, I was suprised too. Also worth mentioning, the Apple Pie was terrible that day.

Oh yes, I’m still very much alive and kicking.

Just that the darn  fever I had for the whole last week knocked me completely off my “Online” routine.

Have to update things here. Still have my  daily pictures, waiting to be uploaded. stay tuned !

Mango to Go

One of the best parts of India has to be the Abundance of Mangoes.

05052010026

I’ve never really been a Mango person tbh. But everyone once in a while I do get the craving lol. Like late this evening when I wanted a Mango Juice. Me thinks it’s the South Indian Gene.

Irony

That giant signboard that you see there ? It’s for a Life Insurance Cooperation.

Would have made a brilliant ad for it tho lol.

Twinkle Twinkle

When was the last time you looked up at the night sky, and looked at all the stars ?

03052010007

I sure as heck cant remember.

Delhi’s been a busy city. My job’s been busy.

Not that I’m complaining though. I’m a city boy, and I love the rushed pace of Delhi.

But egads man. Why was the last time I looked up at the night sky, and looked at all the stars ?

I sure as heck. Cannot. Remember.

Market Walks

I’ve been so incredibly disappointed in myself lately.

020520102539

Mostly because i’ve been in Delhi 7 Months now, and I’ve only seen the India Gate so far. ONE Monument.

Eesh.

Today me and a friend (wass up Dhruv!) headed to a place called “Khan Market” which was quite the place to walk around.

Tons of little boutiques, shops and restaurants. So refreshingly different from the usual bit of “Mall Culture” that I’m used to, eh ?

I need to get around and look at Delhi more. As of right now, I simply cannot afford to do much of that. But hey, here’s hoping, eh ?

Livin it Rich

Ah to be a rich man. With Rich Man’s clothes, eating Rich Man’s Food.

010520102524

I get a taste of that every once in a while. Not too much fun being an average joe, but hey, it just makes the rich man moments taste better.

Rain Rain

It rained in Delhi today.

30042010336

And when I say “Rained” I mean, drizzled for a short amount of time.

But even with that, the streets were flooded. Which makes me a tiny bit worried for when the “real rain” comes. I’ve been warned about that. Not looking forward to it.

Mall Culture

“Mall Culture”.

That’s a funny bunch of words right there.

290420102517

In Kuwait, all I knew was “Mall Culture”. Admittedly I didnt really think it was any sort of “culture” at all though. No, I never really heard that phase until a friend mentioned it a earlier today.

I think one of the things I love about Delhi, is the abundance of malls lol.

I know I know, that’s probably one of the lamest things I’ve ever said.

But it’s hey, that’s my culture ;)

Transport

Transport has to be one of the major problems in Delhi.

280420102511

While I’ve previously discussed why I dont really want to get my ol’car here, sometimes it feels like such a necessity.

Although, this looks like a mighty fine way to get around. If only it had Air Conditioning :P
