The Spectacular Taj
It's one of the most beautiful buildings u can't afford to miss. Also the agra fort. Both symbolises how u can spent money if u hav enough. nd i don think anybody will ever build something of tht sort again..even the richest man !! The trip was gud but the -ve factors were heat nd the lack of hotels wher u get proper fud..something of our choice.B'coz t'was an A/C bus we weren't affected with tht heat . But i guess i've taken a lot of water tht day !! We took a guide to xplain everything at agra fort. As joy told Shahjahan had 332 "setups" nd there is a mosque dedicated 4 them called "Nagina mosque". The magical number 332 has amazed joy quite lot nd for a couple of weeks he was always talking abt tht while i were mesmerised with the beauty of Taj !! Actually shahjahan planned another taj for himself jst opposite on the other side of yamuna..but his son aurangazeb imprisoned him b4 tht tragedy happened !! but u can still c the platform made 4 tht. !!
The roads to agra weren't tht gud. so tht journey was shaky n bumpy. Only we 3 were mallus. so we joined thee gultis nd tamilians in singing songs !! It was time 4 me to give the best effort to reproduce the tamil songs i've heard so far in my life !! u knw sometimes it helps !! on the way we visited "Mathura"- birthplace of krishna !! its said ther r 5000+ krishna temples ther. the guide took us to a place wher he is supposed 2 hav taken rest aftr "Kaaliya Mardhanam" . On the way v saw a bldg wher "Mira bhai" lived. now it houses widows/unmarried women who r fed frm the earnings of the temple nearby . but ther it's all business. v don't feel any bhakti if u go ther !!! by the time we reached back at the guest house t'was midnight !!

The Malls @ Gurgaon
Malls r somethings u can't resist to visit again nd again. Once u're inside u donno how time progresses. At a nearby place cld IFFCO Chowk , we've 3 . nd many more coming up !! all with those brand showrooms nd multiple theatres. u want to simple spent money lik "rajnikant does in arunachalam" ..jst go ther. if he had gone ther it would hv been finished in 3 days nd not 30 days ( u c tht tamil influence is showing up here n ther !! even they speak always in terms of cinema. 4 every matter they hav an instance frm movies. ). But wherever uc u get to c a lot of .......u knw !! we'll wonder sometime y they r wearing something ?? u get 2c couples sitting nd chatting here n ther !! nobody'll ask u even if u sit ther the whole day ..i guess !!
All 3 malls viz ..Metropolitan, Sahara nd DLF city centre r big ones !! the first being the best among . In sahara u've a big bazaar meant for middleclass lik us !! take 3 get 2 free lik tht !! itz lik making a roadside seller to do business in a mall !! but u get a t reasonable prices .. even v bought some t-shirts frm ther. the malls r a major reason i've exhausted my first month salary !! they're savvy !! last weekend v went 4 "pirates of the carribean' movie at DT cinemas in city centre !! Rs. 150 ticket nd u can't carry eatables inside....coke+popcorn = Rs.90. we opted to remain hungry !! back at NIT we were freely dwnld-ing movies..here 150 bucks !!earlier v went to PVR 4 ticket. but sold-out. maybe itz better than DT. thtz y here seats were mostly vacant !!

Life @FSS is getting better day-by-day. First week 'twas boring. but now i'm feeling better. as of now ther's no hint of any xams. but ther's proj, frm nxt week. 6 weeks proj !! donno whts up the sleeve ? 4 those who got fascinated with the machines@ Pclab . here we hav one 4 each of us...but the Ac's creatin probs....sometimes 2 cool..in the 1st week most of us were coughing nd sneezing. i'm in a seperate trainin' room. joy n chacks is in single room. we don't meet even durin' lunch breaks 'coz timings r different. but whenever i go to the tea/coffee machine they're there..sipping coffee..coz itz free....!!! pity for joy..he has to satisfy himself with a same coloured substitute 4 tht substance tht he used to savour often !! maybe thts y he always prefers black tea !! papers taught r fine. some r familiar to CS guys whereas some 4 EC/EE guys...none 4 MCAs !!
About the guest-house; Lavish..posh....with this money u could liv in a 5* hotel in kerala for a yr i guess !! u touch anything..u gotta pay 4 tht. but acc. to ikka, who visited us last week, tis reasonable in delhi. who knows delhi better than ikka? first thing i did when v shifted her was 2 buy a good rope !! jst to tie joy's legs to the cot. "padakka purayude aduthu theepetti company nadathukayaanallo joy".. thtz y. he has made a hitlist of the people whom he's planning to handle ...( thank god !! machan's not here ). donno wht he'll endup with.
abt the food; we tried "dhaba" one day... we were his last customers tht day 'coz the stuff got finished...but after he closed the shop we had to watch him beating a cow "with the same chattukam tht he used to make the noodles"...!!!! nxt day we shifted to guest-house mess !!! now we got the freedom to tak fud frm anywher as tis not compulsary now !! 2day onwards we're dining frm outside..thtz wht we're planning. got a lot of tamil guys n gals here. i'm jst managing with my broken tamil. joy's learned something called "aangyabaasha ".. ahhh..one more thing !! we've got a manager who's 100 times slower thn nathu ! v're fed up with him !! he don understands wht v say n vice versa ..
jst to write abt chacko. he's b'com more lik a tamilian. living, eating n playin with them ...says he plays futball with hindi guys with boots n jersey....!! very busy ..never getz 2c him ..very busy doing progr. even in lunch hours... one day while returning aftr lunch , i saw chacks peeping thr. my trainning room window. donno whom he's searchin 4?? he had a lot of connection b4 comin' here... maybe repairing some lines !!!
thtz the news frm gurgaon....got 2 xplore the place bit more..traveling is a prob here . mainly cycle rickshaws. maybe this week. my cousin Anand took us to Akshardham temple, Delhi metro, some bazars(Paalika Bazaar), Connaught place n some "vaayil kollatha perullla" places !! tht was the day b4 joinin here 4 training.
