Finally landed in Kuwait on Saturday..and boy was I surprised to see the wonderful weather here. Its beautiful outside, compare this with India where its already over 35′C [touchwood]. Although fair bit of cleaning was involved in the balcony which was flooded with sand from the sandstorm couple of weeks back. Thank God I had [...]

 
Since I am travelling to couple of places in India, and the last thing I wanted to do was carry my laptop around, I am having strange (?!) times without proper internet availability. Well at times it feels like I do not need the bloody thing around me, and then there are midnite cravings for [...]

Am in India on vacation for a month. Currently in Udaipur but tonight travelling to Jaipur. These are two historic cities with vast cultural heritage. Udaipur is called City of Lakes, because it has nearly dozen or more lakes in and around the city. Weather is amazing 25-26′C. Udaipur has been famous for Lake Palace [...]

Hmm..so I am supposed to be a ’snake’ according to Chinese astro-cast. So much for hissing and puffing on the blog.. Don’t take this one on face value, I might strike when you least expect, or might creepy crawl on you. So how is the Year of Ox slated for ’snakes’? Here is an excerpt..

Visited the doctor early in the morning, and guess what, had 2 patients ahead of me, and 4 behind me. Everyone [including myself] clutching to warm pullovers, pashminas, woolens, and the pale drowned out faces. Sniffing every couple of minutes, coughing the next minute, and shaking mildly the [...]

Well after a couple of months of VIVA excitement building up across Kuwait and at ChillNite.com and with me, I had my last chance to opt for VIVA on 10th Jan. I had booked 2 numbers and they were good numbers. But after looking at user feedback, service charges, and service offerings, I decided that [...]

Just got this SMS from VIVA that my number(s) are ready to be picked up by Jan 10th. The question is whether to switch from my current provider Wataniya to VIVA or not. Well lets look at what VIVA is offering me:

I use monthly plan from Wataniya, obviously would like the same from VIVA
Connection charges [...]

Casio VL-1 was a revolutionary musical instrument that was introduced in 1981. It came packaged as a small yet beautiful and truly first family oriented keybard/synthesizer that was affordable. I still remember playing the demo tone and falling in love with it. My father got it around 1984 and I was totally awstruck by the [...]

One week of heavenly beach life in Cyprus finally came to an end this week.  Cyprus just gets more beautiful with every visit. The azure crystal waters where you can see the sea floor at depths of 5 meters, the sea changing colors from green to blue to violet to azure is breathtaking. Surprisingly the [...]

The heat of Kuwait and stress in Ramadan has drained us out to wits end. Well we needed a break, and so we are flying down to Cyprus for a week. Hope we still get glorious beach weather, well its 27′C at the moment. We are off to Ayia Napa, the crazy sea side party [...]
