Your blog is supposed to tell a lot abt U but mine doesnt ... infact it does not tell anything except that I njoi playing with Linux and belong 2 a class of wannabe(m not sure if this was the right word) geeks.
Well a different facet this time .... I am crazy abt renewable energy ever since I can remember ... this love has brought me back from the job of a Software Engineer to do an M.Tech in Energy Science and currently m working on Organic Solar Cells (OSC).
So back to the topic of this blog ... any1 from India can easily guess it has something to do with Lucknow ... well not exactly Lucknow but close ... its Kanpur. We dont have a lab for OSC in IITB so am here in IITK trying 2 learn the tricks of the trade.
To start with Kanpur inside the campus is an awsum place ...its infra is GOD compared 2 IITB but then there are always other things we have better there ... an obvious eg ... Their T-shirt for intercollegiate festival says "The
OK the better things ... well there are a thousand things worth riting but let me stick to the ones that are most subtle ... the really good ones.
1. I am walking down a lane and ask some1 4 directions ... that person was not only kind enough 2 tell me the directions but offered me double seat on his cycle (they would never offer u lift on a cycle in Mumbai ... I dont :D )... but it does not end there ... We come across a turn where I had to take a different path ... now this really cool dude ... offers me 2 drop me till my hostel ... I politely refuse ... but he does not seem to budge infact when he finally agrees he has expressions on his face as being sorry abt that ... so he decides to make up for it and offers to buy me a juice in a nearby juice counter ... BOY Kanpur is cool ... isnt it ....
2. I had a broken button and away from home it can be a big problem so I tried borrowing a needle from a tailor within campus ... did not feel like shelling out money for a button ... So I go to this tailor and ask for it ... he offers me to take it away ... I insist I will fix it there and return him .... and then as soon as I take my shirt from my bag he offers to stitch it .... He not only stitches that button but almost all of them coz they were on the verge of breaking .... now how do I say thanks to this guy ... I cant offer money for his hospitality that would be gross .... "Idea !!!" So I but him a nice icecream and he is as happy with it as I am ....
A short part of my big travelogue of visit 2 Kanpur ... probably one of the best parts ... Isnt Kanpur cool ... and so is Life !!! made up of such wonderful moments
