I used to walk to my office ,which is about a mile away from my hotel.  But then it was getting very hot (>100f) so I started searching for alternate mode of transport,Sure enough I found a bus which leaves me very near to my office. But I had to walk for about 8 minutes to reach the bus stop, after first day I realized bus stop is exactly behind my hotel but due to the fences around my hotel I have to walk around it. So at night I took a stroll to find a chink in the Armour(fence) .I did, one of the vertical steel bar was broken and left just enough space me to squeeze in. So now every morning I get up ,get ready and try and squeeze through small space in fence much to amusement of people jogging there...

So I usually catch 9o'clock bus and reach office by 9.15. However one day I was reading a book by P.G.Wodehouse and I got little engrossed in it,Missed my stop and realized it only at 9:30. I had to eventually walk more than I would have from my hotel to office.grrr..May be I suffer from ADD

When I had the project, my immediate lead was fired and now today,I completed nearly a month in the project and our manager and only point of contact between business and technology quit the company. Can't take credit for everything but well I do some weird aura around me.

My office accesses are disabled today, So although I have work I cannot do anything today (yipeee).Hence the blogging. Today, I got to know my manager quitting, my extension in project has some issues and I missed a call from my account manager which leads me to believe more travel might be there in my future .Sigh .

Now I have been living alone for more than 2 months.Now I am in city where I don't have single friend or good mode of commutation.Makes me wanna buy car, but I don't want the additional overhead and having to go through headache of getting a license here...lets see..

I saw videos for Google glasses and it nearly gave me goose bumps. I do every now and then get excited about technology.It makes me say 'Future is here'

Its funny, although I have been here for more than a year now, I have never really interacted much with people who were born and brought up in US(typically ,whites ). Only now did I get to introduced to couple of them and although I won't be interacting with them on daily basis this is a small work place and there fore I happen to see them occasionally. The weird part is one of them greeted me 'Good Morning Jigar' and for love of God, I could not remember who he was. Its almost as if all Caucasians and whites look alike to me. He could have been anyone. I know all of them don't look alike, but I sure had hard time differentiating him from 3 guys I was introduced to.

I cannot remember any single occasion in last three years when I would have worn formal clothes on Friday.Reason being, my company allowed me casuals on Friday and so did my client. However this friday I was wearing a perfectly ironed blue stripped shirt with a formal trouser. Reason...?. It isn't that my current client doesn't allow me casuals on Friday.It is that my current client allows me casuals on all days. It weird, that now that I have freedom to wear casual through out the week, I did not feel bad about wearing formals on Fridays.


Sometimes, you like something (want it more) only because it is limited to you in the first place.


Anyway, Reason I wore formals 4 out of 5 days on weekday was because all my casual clothes required washing :P
