Into a Different World

नयाँ आशा, नयाँ नेपाल

2015-05-06T19:44:00.002+01:00

अहिलेको नेपालको शेकाकुल अवस्थामा म भलाकुसारी गर्न चाहन्न, क्रपया मलाई माफ गरिदिनुहोस्। नेपालमा भुकम्प गयो तर सायद सारा नेपालीले महसुस गरे, विदेशमा रहेकालेपनि। राम्ररी सुत्न सकेका छैनन् ति देशप्रेमीहरु। िवदेश बस्नु एउटा मजबुरी हो वा आफ्नै मनखुशी जवाफ दिन गाह्रो तर जाहाँ बसेपनि नेपालीलाई आफ्नै देश प्यारो। म बेलायतलाई ह्रदयबाट धन्यवाद दिन्छु किनकी बिगत १३ सालदेखि मलाई गाँय-बास र कपाएस दिएको छ; तर म जहाँ जन्मेकोछु त्यो म भुल्न सक्दिन। तिमी दुबै देशको सम्मानलाई आँच आएको म देख्न सक्दिन। अहिले नेपाल आमा मुश्किल र कठिनामा छिन्, मेलैकेहि गर्नसके मन हलुका हुन्छ। सकेसन्म गर्दैपनि छौं। सबै नेपालीहरुको साथ देखेर मन भावविभोर भई खुशिको आँसु बहे झैं लागिरहेकोछ ।

मेरो हार्दिक समबेदना छ ति सारा अमर आत्माहरूलाई जसले आफ्ना ज्यान गुमाउनु पर्यो, ति परिवारहरुमा मेरो आत्माबाट सान्तवना छ। मन रोई रहेछ। भन्छन्- आयो-टप्प टिप्यो-लग्यो-मिती पुग्यो-टारेर टरेदैन त्यो। जहाँपनि छन् सबै मिलेर उनिहरूको आत्मालाई चिर शान्तिको कामना गरौं । स्रष्टिको नियमालाई कसैलेपनि नकार्न सकिन्न।

हामी यसरी नै आपसी मेलमिलापमा बस्यौं भने हामी कसैले नजर उठाएर हेर्ने आँटपनि गर्दैनन्। एक सुन्दर नेपालको आशा, निर्माण र सफल्ता चांडै देख्न पाऊँ। ति दिवगंत आत्माहरूपनि नयाँ नेपाल देखेर हर्षमा बसुन् ।

.....................
नेपाल आमाको रोदन र क्रन्दन कसैले सुन्न सकेका थिएनौ,
कतै ति पौराणिक मठ मन्दिर र धरहरामा अल्झेर बसेका थिए कि थाहै पाएनौ,

उनका छातिले कति भार थाम्नु, हातहरुले कतिलाई सम्हाल्नु,
देशलाई खोक्रो बनाउनेहरू कतिलाई आश्रय दिएर राख्नु,

सर्वस्य छोडेर ८० बर्षपछि जुरमुराईन् उनि, भक्कानो छोडेर रोईन्,
हामीलाई बल्ल चेतना भयो, यति सारो उनिले सहेकि रहेछिन्,

नेपाल आमा तिमी दु:खी नहोऊ, आफ्नो आँसु पुछेर घाम झैं हाँसिदेऊ,
आउँछ नयाँ नेपालमा उज्वल ज्योतिको जनभावना, त्यसैले तिमी खुसी भईदेऊ,

अब तिम्रा सन्तानहरू एक भएकाछन्, आपसमा मिलेर एकअर्कालाई साथदिईरहेकाछन्,
जातभात, ढुलोसानो, तेरोमेरो, हिमालीतराई केहि नभनि हातमाहात मिलाएर काम गरिरहेकाछन्,

आमा तिमीले सिकाएको ज्ञान पायौं हामीले,
अबदेखि तिमीलाई माया गर्छौं र ख्याल राख्छौं सबैले,

आखिरमा तिमी रहे हामी रहन्छौं र हाम्रो अस्तित्व र पहिचान,
सदा जगेर्ना गर्नेछौं तिम्रो आस्था, अटल राख्छौं तिम्रो स्वाभिमान ।।
जय नेपाल।

5 Miles Milestone; Walk for Nepal, London 2014

2014-07-27T23:53:00.004+01:00

Hello there,

Tried to paint my nails as Nepalese flag!

Greetings to my readers. A sunny and warm welcome in this sunny July. Yesterday, 26th July 2014 was a well spent day for me. I had the feeling of accomplishment and satisfaction. As planned, I set out early morning from home and headed towards one of my most favourite park Richmond Park, Surrey. This time I was going there for a purpose; a good purpose for my country Nepal and its people. The Walkathone was organised by GMIN UK. This was the second programme so far I suppose. The registration fee was £10 and I had done it in advance. I thank Pratikshya for the FB invitation. There were 4 more charities involved: YouthNepal, Helpnepal.net, Live for Change (I raised a mere £25 for them, thank you for my contributors) and Nepalese Nursing Association UK.

We reached Richmond Park on time but it was difficult to find the right location where the bandstand was, unable to get the right direction, me and my sister roamed around the big park. We already walked 2 km by then. Late but not left out, there were still people who were lost and just got there. I was happy to see there are still people who were going to do the walk. A leader called Peter lead our group and we started our journey. There were children, women and men who were so determined to do the charity walk. I met members of helpnepal.net. It was pleasant talking to them and we shared a lot of information. After the completion of less than one third of the journey I came to find out that the whole walkathone was 5 miles not 5 kilometer. Adrenaline rushed through my veins. Its not the feeling that I cannot do it, its just that my mind was not ready for it. I decided to continue anyway because it was not a good idea to leave things incomplete. There were little children walking faster than me how can I just quit.

Love for Nepal

We all tried to stick together and walk in a group. The sun was really in favour of us, may be too much in favour. It was really hot. At times I felt like I was walking in the roads of Kathmandu. The leader, I thought who was responsible for all of us was not actually a leader. He told me he came there just as us, interested to do charity walk. He did had the right map and he did try to encourage us when we were tired and all. I could see everyone walking with smile on their face and determined to complete the charity walk, may be it is the love for our country and its people. We might not change the whole country but atleast we tried to do a little change. We did raise the money for chairty which helps Nepalese people.

We reached the point where we started our walk and concluded our journey. It was a great feeling of achievement and accomplishment to get the certificate and complimentary sandwich hehe.

I congratulate everyone who completed the walk and contributed something for our country. Hip, hip, hurray!!! We are all winners. I hope the money raised for this good cause goes to the right people and change their lives forever for good. If I can change atleast one life, I feel happy that I have done something. I am not a leader or socialist or billionaire; I am just a simple girl who is trying to bring a small change in someone's life through this charity walk.

Lastly, I would like to thank the organisers, the contributers who donated for me, the people who walked with me and my sister for supporting me. Ofcourse, there were many tweet people, instagram friends and my friends and colleagues at work wished me luck and gave me advices which helped me a lot. I need the same support and encouragement for another walk 10K in September. Till then cheerio.

Thank you for reading.

Hey ya all,

I thank you for reading my blog once again and I hope I haven't disappointed you too much. Without wasting your time, I am posting this little piece of sort of poem yet an article.

Hope you feel the feelings connected to it. Cheerio limshaku

I bow down to love, I bow down to you!!!

I bow down to love,
I bow down for love,
I bow down to be loved,

No matter how hard I tried to put a poker face,
Couldn't resist my eyes filling up with tears.

No matter how hard I tried to forget your absence,
Couldn't deny my heart pumping up with your name.

No matter how hard I tried to decorate a smile and be brave,
Couldn't help myself crying out loud in sleeps.

No matter how had I tried to face the consequences,
Couldn't stop my mind thinking of you not even for a second.

No matter how hard I think of living a life so long,
Couldn't imagine my journey without you.

I bow down to love, I bow down to you,

I do not bow to your ego, I do not bow to your anger,
I do bow to your love, I do bow to your care,
I bow down to love,
I bow down for love,
I bow down to be loved.

In life we still feel blessed to love and be loved. Lets hope All Is Well for all of us.

Live life to fullest.

''Loving you is like a roller coaster ride''

2014-01-19T13:38:00.000+00:00

Hello everyone,

First of all, Happy New Year 2014 to everybody around the world and I wish you a good year ahead. I apologise for not blogging for quite sometime now. I really need inspirations and reasons to write sometimes. I have been busy for no reasons lately and too lazy to actually jot anything in my blog.

This is my first post of 2014 and in couple of months. I thought of this poem couple of months ago but just couldn't be bothered to post it. I hope you enjoy reading and have a nice day.

With all do respect limshaku

''Loving you is like a roller coaster ride''

Loving you is like a roller coaster ride,
Makes me wanna fly and touch the blue sky,
Makes me wanna smile and feel shy,
Makes me wanna rejoice and jump high.

Loving you is like a roller coaster ride,
Makes me wanna defy and deny,
Makes me wanna cry and run wild,
Makes me wanna hate and hide.

Loving you is like a roller coaster ride,
Makes me wanna dream and desire,
Makes me wanna scream and surprise,
Makes me wanna zeal up and be zany.

Loving you like a roller coaster ride,
Makes me wanna refuse and retire,
Makes me wanna detach and despise,
Makes me wanna conceal and compromise.

Loving you is like a roller coaster ride,
Makes me wanna walk by your side and spend my whole life,
Makes me wanna build up hopes and fulfill my duty as your wife,
Makes me wanna sing that sweet melody and keep up with your rhyme.

Loving you is like a roller coaster ride,
Loving you is like a roller coaster ride.

Funny thing is I have always loved roller coaster rides. I would take a ride and enjoy being thrown up in air and ups and downs. Never knew that life is actually telling me it is like a roller coaster ride of feelings, emotions, happiness, sadness and all. I believe in having dreams and fulfilling them. Lets live life to fullest be happy.

Thank you for reading.

There are things

2013-06-30T09:14:00.000+01:00

Flowing words of my mind.

There are things you cannot change,

There are memories you cannot erase,

There are feelings you cannot suppress,

There are people you cannot impress,

There are thoughts you cannot express,

There are hurdles you cannot success,

There are some things you cannot exchange,
There are destinies which even god can't manipulate.

Despite all these, I have the willingness, willpower and persistence to carry on leading a optimistic life. Hope I can make people around me happy.

Thank you for reading!!

Taxi drivers of Kathmandu and the traffic!

2013-06-15T01:29:00.005+01:00

Hey everyone,

Thank you for reading my blog and I appreciate your continuous support.

I have been to Kathmandu in February 2013 for 2 weeks. I am posting this write-up quite late because I have been caught up with many things till now. I saw, witnessed and learnt many things during my short stay there. I was always afraid to get into a taxi. Besides I have been told look at your meter when you get into taxi.

I took a lot of cab (taxi) while I was there. It was quite surprising to see how taxi drivers look at your get-up, your status and put up the taxi fare. You literally had to tell them that this is the maximum amount I am going to give you and if you agree I will get into the cab otherwise we can look for another one. When me and my sister came out of a beauty parlour to go for the wedding reception, the taxidrivers asked us double price. May be they got confused with our make up and all but hey they didn't know I was broke. :P haha

Every taxi I took to go to my destinations, I tried to have a good conversation with the driver. I am a driver myself (not taxi :D) and I know how it feels like driving when people treat you like a driver. I would normally start with saying, ' How long have you been driving a taxi?', then they all have different stories to recite. There was one driver we met in temple Pashupatinath; a very famous Hindu temple. He was middle-
aged man with family and children as grown up as me. He said he had been driving since 20 years and he had driven in many places. He drove truck, bus, mini bus, micro bus and all and now he is driving taxi, his own investment so far. He said his only dream is to educate his children so that they could lead better life than him in future. It was pleasant talking to him. He dropped us in Thamel, the happening (hippie) place of Kathmandu I suppose.

The other day we got into another taxi and again there was a middle-aged driver. It was almost evening and he was refusing to go far, our hometown was not that far from that place but he wanted extra money so that he can cover the cost of coming back empty. Well we had to negotiate the reasonable taxi fare. Again we started chatting, he started telling us his version of stories about how two women got him into trouble. He also said he hesitated little bit when he first saw me and my sister trying to persuade him to take us to our destination. On the other hand we were more worried of getting into a cab driven by unknown person. It's a wild world mate. He did gave us a good suggestion,' Do not get into a cab where there is a driver and another person on the front passenger's seat no matter what.' Well, things happen and we can't help it. But there is no harm in being careful beforehand.

Another evening, it was raining very heavily and my sister and sister-in-law decided to pick me up from my friend's place. The driver was a young man. He was already agitated by their (my family) demands of picking me up from dark (loadshedding time) and solitary place (bit furthur inside from main road). When we reached our home he demanded triple price and he threaten us that he would take us back to the place where he picked us up. I acted calmly (usually I am not), I was annoyed but it was not going to help. To be honest, it was my area, there was no need for us to worry, we can call for help and it would be right there. But I just thought he did bring us home safely so we gave him double money not triple and told him not to be so hot headed, calm down and drive back safely.

Our family know a driver dai (brother) who knows us. He owns his own taxi and drives around but whenever we need him, he is always there. I could somehow see how important his role is when we need any transportation. Someone whom we can trust without any reservations. He told me he drives when people phone him and ask him to come, that means he does not drive around like other taxi drivers. It is their safety as well, there is insecurity for everybody nowadays. We do not have a car in our household because no one drives. I drive but in London. This driver brother has plenty of stories to tell us. I did suggest him to invest on his own cab company and run it. (As I have seen in London). On our way to the airport there was a traffic jam (could not believe a traffic jam in Ekantakuna), he took a short cut. Oh my god, he was showing a stunt I guess. The road was so small that a pedestrian had to move aside to give us the way. He did managed to take us to airport on time. We knew he would not accept money from us (he gets it from mom and dad) so we just gave some money asking him to buy something for his children.

In 2013, the streets of Kathmandu is full of mud, dust and signs of excavation. Apparently, the current government planned to widen the roads. There is hardly any space for the pedestrians to walk. The large number of motorbikes on the road makes it even worse. When I left Kathmandu in 2002, there were limited cars and limited motorbikes and scooters. This time around I could see that we might need a separate motorbike lanes, separate traffic regulations only for motorbikes. At a junction near Goarko (Guna Cinema Hall)during rush hour, I could see there were so many motorbikes in the queue, joining in and trying to get ahead of each other from every remaining inch of the road. We could not walk outside without face mask and protective glasses. I am not saying that I went to visit from England and having difficult time but even people living there were doing the same thing as me. I did spend my entire teenage in Kathmandu, roaming around Jawalakhel, Lagankhel, Putalisadak, New Road, King's Way, Satdobato and all. I love Kathmandu valley. Hopefully one day it will be better, clean, organised and dust free.

All the best to those hardworking taxi drivers of Kathmandu who are honest and earn a honest living for themselves and their families. You are the ones who drives us safely to our destination assuring safety and comfort. Those dishonest and crooked taxi drivers will get what they deserve sooner or later cause they are the ones who makes the system bad.

Drive safe, be safe, be vigilant and be alert !!!

Commitment for life,

Compromise of pride,

Communication of thoughts,

Consolidation of hearts,

Consideration of views,

Concentration of reviews,

Compilation of sweet melodies,

Complication of zig-zag memories,

Contentment of desires,

Contemplatation of dreams,

Confidentiality of drawbacks,

Congeniality to fulfill each others's lacks,

Cooperational feeling of heart and mind,

Combinational feeling of soul and spiritual devine.

'C' still Co..ntinues as child, children, care, classes, collegue, college, care home and finally cremation.

"....ing in progress"

Counting my days as it goes by, finding my way to it as how to carry on.

Waiting to be with you as if you are nearby, working my way to it as time passes on.

Wanting to embrace you as if I'm on high, making my way to it as deeper we go on.

Believing in dreams as if you are my life, creating my hopes for it as stronger we hold on.

Surviving in hope as if we can make it right, visualising my hallucinations as though I can move on.

Trusting in you as if you are my Knight in Shining Armor, having my faith wrapped to it as though you are the only ONE.

Why New Year's Resolution never gets fulfilled?

2013-01-02T14:38:00.000+00:00

(Some people are focused and they do fulfill their commitments, but hey I'm talking about lazy people like me. No offence to anyone.)

Why New Year's Resolution never gets fulfilled? Guess?

Cause it's got problem in itself.

"Re-solution"

Imagine your New Year resolution to lose weight, find a new job, quit smoking and do blah blah things; you never actually fulfill it and then same resolution next year. Haha! Its a SOLUTION (as in maths) that we try seek RE-SOLUTION every year. You try to do same thing every year in a different way I guess.

Hey rather than wasting time on New year resolutions why not work hard and analyse the solutions at the end of the year. That might be a real solution of how you tackled things.

There are many New years in a year; Chinese New Year, English New year, (Mayan New year ;) :P nearly ended our world), Nepali New Year, Lohsar, Chasok Tangnam, Newari New Year, your Birthday itslef; if you start making resolutions in all of them, you will end up messing your day-to-day routine.

Just relax and chill. Word hard !!!

My New Year Resolution is to finish everything I started in 2012 and the New tear resolution. Hahahhahahahahha

Welcome and Goodbyes

2012-12-31T19:28:00.000+00:00

Hey everyone,

Now everyone must be busy thinking about New Year and new year celebrations, here I am in my laptop thinking about 2012. Yet another year passed by so quickly. Time never stops for anyone. Soon I will be celebrating my blog's 2nd successful year.

2012 has been a good year for me. Going on holidays to different destinations like Cornwall, Lake district, Northern Ireland and other parts of UK was the best part of this year. I did something new, something different and life is in a different twist. Well, we still have to live a long life so I am trying to make it different and bit more interesting. We had so many momo parties, BBQ parties and every weekend was like a get-together that we had to attend. Got penalty charge for parking few times and there were times that I do not want to remember. But again I am saying here I am alive, healthy and right state of mind.

I have been content academically and financially hmmmm well (money is never enough). I love blogging.
In 2012 as well I have been outrageously active in social networking sites such as instagram, googleplus, facebook, twitter, blog, whatsapp, viber and god knows what. I found a sweet little sister and her sister who lead me to another world of Nepalese community. I kept good connection with all my cyber buddies. Anyways overall I loved 2012.

Hey everybody, we made it through 2012. Doom's day or whatever did not stop us from living our life and the continuation of human survival. I wish the year 2013 would bring joy, happiness, success and lots of love in your life.

Learn from your past,
Live for your present,
Look for the future!!

Make your life meaningful and worthwhile. Overcome your insecurities, inferior complexities and negative thoughts; then your will see life is beautiful.
Regards limshaku :)

Losing interest

2012-12-20T23:17:00.002+00:00

Greetings from London to all my readers,

Let me get straight to the point and put aside all 'hi and hello' stuffs. I suppose we know each other long enough now. If you are reading my blog for the first time then I would sincerely thank you for visiting.

I hate to admit it. Sometimes I feel like if I am interested in something and I yearn for it desperately, I work hard to get it and then even harder when it is difficult to get. Then slowly somehow my interest in it starts to fade away. Does that happen to only me or some other people as well? I ask this question so many times with myself and I cannot really come to any conclusion. My mind does not yield any ideas at all. As time passes on and you are still trying hard to get what you are wishing for, the more you learn about the target, it might be the case that you get more disappointed knowing facts and hidden secrets about it. It's like the job you desperately wanted and then after you get it with your hard work you feel like it was not what you really enjoyed. I have always wanted to study hard and achieve the best formal education. It just hits my mind occasionally that why I study; why do I want to achieve academical goals. I do go out of my aim and feels like running away from everything. These are all unstoppable thoughts in my mind and there is a declaration of war between mind and instincts. Well, the fact is I am studying and I am trying my best.

Achieving your target is a big achievement itself. We all sway away from our aim and goals sometimes and after we get it we might feel like what was so great about it which made me work so hard; but think of it as only the initial stage and keep on working. I set my goal as being a person who could or might bring smile on your face. It is not always possible but I can always try. I guess my goal is simple or might be vast and never ending but I feel like it is challenging and something which always makes me work on it.

(this little girl makes me smile.)

Study never ends. We are always learning and life is always teaching us lessons. Hope you learn more and also enjoy life. I wish everyone to have someone who can bring smile in their faces and make their hearts happy.

May the coldness of December freeze all my insecurities. Saying goodbye to another year 2012 feels strange. I have become more mature than before (haha).

Thank you for reading my blog and I can never stop thanking you for supporting me in my writing.

Informal English

2012-12-07T23:51:00.002+00:00

Hey guys,

Let me tell you my frustrating story which happened recently. It did push me to edge and took me few days for me to get back on my senses.

Lately I was doing an assignment on Key Skills i.e. mostly writing things in English about my own, skills, knowledges, experiences and personal qualities. Trust me it sounded easy but actually doing the work was pretty hard. It is hard because you have to analyse all your qualities, abilities and god knows what. I did my best to try and write upto to distinction level. This expectation thing is really annoying. We always say aim high but when you aim high and don't get what you want you will be completely shattered. Coming back to the topic, I hand in the assignment on time and was happy about it until I got the feedback from my teacher.

Result :

Uncountable grammatical mistakes (relied too much on spell check)
Formatting was completely not right ( teacher says)
1 whole task was not upto teacher's expectation
Lot of informal words used.

My blood boiled when I saw the result.I haven't tasted failure lately, I have been academically good in past few years. I guess I have been too comfortable that I will get what I want. I didn't feel like writing blog anymore. My level of English is just not good enough I guess. A total heartbroken me felt like I should have studied Major English in school and college. I honestly felt like closing down the whole blog for instance. The problem was deep inside I always knew my English vocabulary was not too good, and rather than improving it I just started ignoring it. I do look into dictionary often but I tend to forget the words easily.

Do you know what? I have to do the whole assignment again. At first, I thought like I won't bother doing it but then now I feel like I should not get discouraged by it and try and move on. It was my carelessness that I did not deserve the higher grade. I need to avoid jargon and informal words in my writing. (according to teacher).

Sometimes things will go terribly bad to go incredibly well. Hope next time my English assignment would be less disappointing to my teacher and more satisfying to me.

Lesson learnt : ''You will never be a good writer until you are a good reader.'' And I am a lousy reader and miss out on areas of learning.

Funny fact : I still used 'Spell check' to finish this post. Dammit.

Even now

2012-11-20T23:24:00.005+00:00

Couple of months back these lines just popped into my head and jot it down my notes straightaway. Sometimes some people hurt you so much that later in your life even if they come infront of you, you will have no words left to say to them and no feelings to express moreover no emotions to connect. Life is long and I want to live and share it with smile and happiness but still at times it is inevitable to avoid some situations which are uncomfortable. But I would still:

Try to love the ones who hates me, comfort the ones who hurts me, serve the ones who annoys me and probably speak to the ones who ignores me BECAUSE I should atleast try my best. It is only love and comfort which can make a difference. I am not god but a simple human being who wants to spread love, happiness and peace.

Durdle Door, Lulworth, Dorset, Summer of 2012.

The broken heart that I have can barely heal,

Even now if you try very hard to seal,

The painful memories I have can rarely fade away,

Even now if you try hard to giveaway,

The happy short moments I have can surely disappear,

Even now if you in front of me reappear.

Thank you all my blog readers for your support and reading my posts. My life has completely changed ever since I started blogging and it would not have been possible without readers like you. Appreciate it.

Tihar 2012

2012-11-15T01:20:00.000+00:00

Hey everybody,
(Talking about festival that Hindu people celebrate, it has its own importance in our lives.)
First of all, Happy Deepawali / Tihar to everyone and hoping that everyone had a safe night playing with all firecrackers. I always loved celebrating Tihar. Nepalese people celebrate it in 5 days. Let's not got to details of what we do in all these days. My sister heard from her colleague at work that there will be fireworks in Neasden Temple (Swaminarayan Temple). We decided to go there and give it a try how it goes on. I never knew that there would be event like that.

Add caption

I finished all my worshipping of goddess Laxmi (goddess of fortune) at home. Then we headed towards our destination. Oh my god, the temple had rented the big multistory car park of nearby IKEA store. There were people everywhere. Luckily I guess whether was favourable to all of us. I thought we were late for it but thank god we still had some time to go inside the temple and come back one by one. On our way we saw many girls and guys of young age too. Suddenly my sister said,''Temple is the best place to look for girls ( for guys)''. Hahaha. No offence to anyone but I don't about other girls but I don't really look for potential partner in temples. :P I think it is human nature that opposite attracts.

Funny thing is that most of the guys had eyes on all the girls. Though I'm a girl, I don't know how I ended up telling my sister these things:

Yes temple is the place where they can see the type of girl they are looking for whom they can introduce to their mother. (Not referring that girls who don't go to temple are bad.)
They can actually see them in the most beautiful way, all covered up and well-behaved. (normally girls wear saree or kurta sarwal or some decent clothes.)
Almost all type of girls go to temple. ( I hardly know any Nepalese girls who doesn't go to temple, unless their religion is different.)

Point here is not to penalise guys for staring at girls in temple, it's just a humorous co-incidence that I decided to wear a decent Kurta-sarwal when I went there. :P But there were so many other eye-catching beautiful girls in traditional dresses. If a girl like me can notice it how would those guys get their eyesight away from them. haha .Hey guys just because a girl goes to temple doesn't mean that they are so good that you ignore the ones who doesn't. All the best to all the guys out there who goes to temple to find someone they like.

The best part of the night was crossing the big road North Circular. Wondering why? Thing is I always drive past that road but this was the first time I actually crossed it by foot. The whole road was blocked for few minutes just to let people (and me) to cross the road. Good feeling to walk on such a busy road freely and that majestic feeling of being special. it was well organised event and volunteers were great. Young boys handling shoe department were so busy, the ones showing the way to temple, standing outside, inside the temple did very good job.

Here is the glimpse of fireworks that made my Tihar of 2012 so special. I just love fireworks, it lightens up my heart, soul and mind.

WISHING ALL MY FRIENDS, FAMILY AND PEOPLE OUT THERE A HAPPY DEEPAWALI (though I'm a bit late) AND ALL MY LOVELY BROTHERS HAPPY BHAI-TIKA (or Dai tika ;) :P).

Live well & love life!!!

रक्सी र नानी (alcohol & girl)

2012-11-08T00:33:00.000+00:00

Just a random thing I have written thinking of drink and a girl.

चिया , juice, रक्सी, पानी,
पिउ straw ले तानी तानी,

सुसु आएर खत्तम भएपनि,
बस तिमी अल्छि मानी मानी,

नराम्रो छ हो यस्तो बानि,
नदौड toilet तिर लात्ता हानी हानी,

पिउने भए रक्सी पिउ नानी,
नक्कल नपार धेरै जानी जानी,

ठर्रा रक्सी भए बाँड यतातिर पनि,
कस्तो हुँदो रहेछ हिंडन टाउको घुमी घुमी,

जति पिएपनि कता हराउँदो हो कुन्नि,
मग्न हुऔं बरू rock र metal सुनि सुनि,

रातभरि जागै, दिनभरि निद्रामा झुलि,
जिन्दगी यस्तै बित्दैछ झुमी झुमी,

भविष्य अन्धकार भएपनि,
बसौं हामी उज्वल ताराहरू गनी गनी ।।

मोजमस्ति गरौं तर आफू र अरूलाई नोक्सान हुने काम नदरौं। मनको अन्धकारलाई फैलिन नदेऊ, ज्योति आफै बाटो पहिल्याउदै आईपुग्छ । ज्योति भन्ने अस्तित्व नै हुन्न थियो होला यदि अन्धकार नहुंदो हो त । जिन्दगीको उज्वल पक्षलाई स्वागत गर्न सिकौं । खुशी बाँडौं ।।

Robin and The New Revolution

2012-10-29T00:04:00.004+00:00

Nepali music have so many great contributors. Robin Tamang is one of them. I have always been a fan of Rabin Tamang, previously it was called Rabin and Looza. I heard a lot about him, listened to his songs but never had a chance to go to one of his concert.

I was so excited to hear that Robin and The New Revolution were performing in London so I already prepared myself to pay any amount to see their concert. It took place in many venues around London and England. Dressed myself as a rock-chick and put on my favourite pair of converse, we set out to see him. To be honest that venue in Southall wasn't for concert. It was a party place but anyways for Robin and the group I compromised hehe. There was another band performing before the main guest. It is ''GREASE'' band. One of the guitarist is my brother. I never had a chance to go and see his concert ever since, luckily this time I was able to see him perform. His band played very nice songs. There were other Nepali bands who played really well and entertained us.

Me and my gang were just sitting in the corner when I was told that Robin Tamang just turned up. And ''I was like,,,,, where?''. Fact is that I never saw his face properly or his photo. Another thing was that it was sort of dark inside. As soon as I heard that Rabin was there I stood up and went straight upto him. I shook hands with him, also hugged him (I literally had to stretch myself cause he is so tall). I tried to speak to him but there was too much noise. Anyways at that time I was happy enough that I met him and then had opportunity to take some photos with him.

When he came on stage it was different feeling. He looked awesome. And he cracked out some jokes like, ''सरी है आउँदा-आउंदै ढिलो भयो, आज बिहान 5 बजे सम्म पिउंदै थिए हाहा / '' and ''म त अब 2 or 3 दिनमा घर जान्छु अनि त्यसपछि फेरी के के कुरामा किचकिच /'', the crowd just loved him. I think what he meant to say was how youngsters don't like to hear things when they go home. He had that magical way of attracting his fans. He knew exactly what his fans liked to hear. While he and the group was trying to arrange sound system he was also interacting with crowd. He said, '' अब म एकचोटि sound check गर्छु है '', then he asks the guy behind the monitor who was arranging sound to focus on the drums. Drum beat was like, ''dhudh dhudh dhudh'' then he tells him put it little bit up, and so on. He checked his microphone and his voice wasn't loud enough but his guitar was too loud. He asked the guys something but he didn't understand, he was making fun of him telling him ''NO'' is no and ''ON'' is on. Its funny that I never realised sound system check would be so much fun. Well when he started singing, that's it. He rocked it. I was doing headbang and jumping like a teenager haha. I liked the part when he slowly played a short part of the legendary song 'मा मौनतामा अल्झिरहेको ', again he said,''मा सानो हुदा सुनेको, हाहा मा नै सानो हुदा सुनेको ''. He was literally laughing. Then he went on and said, '' ओम बिक्रम बिस्ट दाई सरी है तपाइको गीत लाई एस्तो बनाए ''. Then he played his version of the song. ''चिसो चिसो हावामा '' was simply best. I came to know one of his favourite song is 'Knock Knock Knocking on Heaven's Door', and so is mine.

Overall, it was fun night. Though I don't have any complain I just wished the venue would have been slightly different. I'm so happy I met one of the most popular man of Nepali Music Industry. He made me realise that if we have a passion to do something and carry on doing it, one day your work will be recognised. I sincerely thank him for not resisting us when we approached him.

So far I have met Sugam Pokhrel, Nima Rumba, Nabin Bhattarai, Kutumba, Prashant Tamang, Raju Lama, 1974 AD, Deep Shrestha, Bivek Shrestha, Sharmila Bardewa, PremRaj Mahat, Saroj Khanal, Abinash Ghising, and so on in England. I would love to see Nepathya performing in London.

I love music and specially Nepali music is in my heart. It is my identity and I would always support it.

Thank you for reading.

हेर (see/look)

2012-10-22T00:04:00.001+01:00

I'm blogging after sometime now. I've just been busy lately. Today I have a Nepali poem to present here. Hope you like it.

The title is '' हेर '' which means see or look.

हेर

निलो आकाशमा हेर,
बादलहरुका आक्रितिमात्र देख्छौ तिमीले,

बिशाल समुन्द्रमा हेर,
छालहरुका चक्रभयू मात्र देख्छौ तिमीले,

उच्च हिमशिखरहरुमा हेर,
बरफका बुट्टाहरुमात्र देख्छौ तिमीले,

मेरो आखामा हेर,
बेदनाहरुका भण्डारमात्र पाउँछौ तिमीले,

मेरो नजिक आई हेर,
चिसोपनका हुरीबतासमात्र महसुस गर्छौ तिमीले,

मलाई अंगाली हेर,
निर्जीव बस्तुहरुका पुत्लामात्र पाउछौ तिमीले,

मेरो आत्मामा झाँकेर हेर,
भौंतारिरहेका भावनाहरुका संगालोमात्र समेट्छौ तिमीले,

तर , तर मेरो मुहारमा हेर,
प्रबल हाँसोहरुका सृंगारमात्र देख्छु तिमीले //

I just wrote this poem cause it just strike my mind. Somewhere there might someone feeling down and thinking of same thing which is mentioned in this poem but HEY people, life is to enjoy. Smile and the whole world will smile back at you. Imagine world full of smiles.

Hope all my readers would bare with me for not blogging too often. Live blissfully everyone.

Making yourself happy!

2012-09-30T23:28:00.000+01:00

We use word 'happy', 'hapiness', 'being happy', 'making others happy' and so on but what is happiness exactly. This is what Google answers :

hap·py/ˈhapē/

Adjective:

Feeling or showing pleasure or contentment.
Having a sense of confidence in or satisfaction with (a person, arrangement, or situation).

Synonyms:

glad - fortunate - joyful - lucky - merry - cheerful

''I do not have any big reservations but seeing my
family smiling is what makes me most happy .''

And this is what oxford dictionary says:

Definition of happy

adjective (happier, happiest)

1feeling or showing pleasure or contentment:Melissa came in looking happy and excited[with clause]:we’re just happy that he’s still alive[with infinitive]:they are happy to see me doing well
(happy about) having a sense of trust and confidence in (a person, arrangement, or situation):he was not happy about the proposals
(happy with) satisfied with the quality or standard of:I’m happy with his performance
[with infinitive] willing to do something:we will be happy to advise you
[attributive] used in greetings:happy Christmas

2 [attributive] fortunate and convenient:he had the happy knack of making people like him

3 [in combination] informal inclined to use a specified thing excessively or at random:they tended to be grenade-happy
Well whatever it is, it simply means being that one is content, satisfied or have no complains. I have been trying to be happy ever since I was born I guess. Everyone in this world needs happiness to be able to survive. It is a feeling which is neither seen nor disappear, neither bought nor sold, neither weighed nor compared.
Lately, I was wondering what are the things that can make people happy, not materialistic happiness. Anyone could be happy if they get iphone 5 or Apple Mac or Samsung Galaxy or ipad3 or win lottery right now. I am talking about non-materialistic happiness which can make you happy and won't even cost a penny. Is there anything like that? Is there any solution or any idea or any form of happiness which can make you happy? I was trying to reassure my sister of being happy but to come up with 'how to be happy' ideas are arguably difficult. The things that can make me happy might not make others happy. For example, I love to travel, I love sight-seeing and most of all I love meeting new people but same thing does not apply to everybody. May be people hate jet lags, hate travel sickness or hate interacting with new people. Long time ago I watched a program in telly which was saying 'growing a plant can make you happy'. Well, to some extent that is true, I do enjoy growing a plant in my house. It is amazing how a tiny seed can grow into a big plant and also produce fruits, flowers and seeds again. It feels like giving birth but no pain involve hehe.
Happiness is like mirage that we go after but does it exist in the horizon? We should try to find happiness within us. The inner happiness we achieve is far valuable and precious. Honestly speaking simple things can make you happy. For me, simple things like solving a maths solution, cleaning a garden, cleaning my room, talking to my parents and friends, listening to others, blogging, tweeting, instagraming, dancing, singing, evening walk, cooking, doing somebody's hair, decorating, youtubing, facebooking, watching movies, etc does make me happy. Happiness for me is always temporary, it is there but not for infinity. I still wish that temporary happiness could supply me with permanent will power, strength and willingness to survive. Sometimes people spend whole life to find that seconds of happiness. Most of the time people don't even know how happy they are and they still looking for it.
Anyways, here are things that might help you to find happiness or atleast know those things that makes you happy.

think of something which makes you laugh or smile everyday

make a list of things you like to do

make a list of places you like to visit

make a list of crazy things that you like to do (no violence)

make a list of friends you like to talk with

make a list of things that you think could make you happy

make a list of hobbies, skills, interests, knowledge, experiences, abilities, personal qualities you have.

involve yourself in some charity work

join some extra course (academic or non-academic)

do some creative work like poetry, writing, reading, singing, dancing, composing, playing instruments. Keep yourself busy.

If you have any hobbies do not let go of it. Remember that hobbies always exist in your life but it could be completely different from your career and current job.

There are many things and list goes on and on. Playing your favourite game or meditation or sleeping soundly or anything have the possibility of keeping you happy. Analyse all these lists and come up with a simple conclusion which makes you happy.

You being happy inside out is what is going to make changes in families, friendships, relationships, societies, etc. I believe that one happy person can make other people happy as well. Happiness is for sharing. Who knows there might be some people around you silently watching you; who are just content to see that you are happy. Life is very short not to be happy and not try to be happy. We must always seek for happiness within ourselves and the ability that we have to make others happy.

Here is my acronym for H.A.P.P.Y. :

H- Happiness

A- Always

P- Perceives

P- Person's

Y- Yearnings

Lets all be happy and spread happiness.

Kutumba in Harrow, London

2012-09-24T01:07:00.001+01:00

People loved KUTUMBA

Can't be more happier than this. Guess where I am hehe.

Hey everybody,

I think it was last year I was looking into one of my friend Strophicus's blog I saw this post about Kutumba, I'm sorry to say until then I had no idea who they were. After I heard them, I was fascinated by their music. Long time ago there was SURSUDHA and I used to love their music. I heard that Kutumba are coming to London and I swear I was so excited. I said to myself this is a MUST WATCH program and I should never miss it.

It indeed was so so so so so so nice, I can't explain. I am not sleeping yet but updating my blog as soon as I can cause the memories are still fresh. They were playing music and people were all enjoying and dancing and having so much fun. I think for any musician or singer it is a great achievement to see audience loving their music to bits. People of all age group were enjoying the show. I met lots of people whom I had lost contact for quite a while. Since I knew one of the organiser RUBY, I really asked them for a photo with Kutumba at backstage. Luckily, I got a chance to take a photo with them. I couldn't have a chat with them cause they must have been tired already. Yes, I did it. They are all ordinary Nepali guys with extraordinary talent in music. I salute them.

LIKE them in facebook : https://www.facebook.com/rajukutumba

Hope to see them more successful.

Mouth Cancer 10 K Walk

2012-09-24T00:12:00.001+01:00

I am very glad to say that I was able to participate in 10 K Mouth Cancer Walk organised by Mouth Cancer Foundation. Me along with my friends Sweetie, Yam K, Kanchan, Rupa, Jyoti and Pabel sis and many many people will be walking foot by foot to fight for something which is affecting all of us direct or indirect way. I heard from the speaker that 50% of oral cancer are diagnosed late and among those diagnosed 50% die. It is a sad to hear that.

It was a proud feeling of wearing the Mouth Cancer sponsored t-shirt and then walk along Hyde Park. All people were cheering us and then staring as well. Most annoying thing is you feel like you have walked a long way but the sign only says 2KM. Arrgghhh. Then after we crossed 7 KM I felt really fresh all of a sudden. I was rejuvenated by the surrounding music I guess. Hyde Park looked even beautiful yesterday cause of lovely weather.

Doing something for charity is a good feeling. I did raceforlife 5K run few months ago at the same place. This time the number of people attending were around 800 but still it was nice to see so many people who came. All of us had the same reason and same motive to be there, 'Fight Against Mouth Cancer'.

A few years ago in 2006 I accepted a youtube friendship request. I didn't actually used my youtube account after that for a long time. Time just flies and life's activities made me so busy that I didn't even bother to simple things like logging into my youtube and check out things. I was not that much active in facebook either.

One day I saw one friend of mine posted a link in his/her wall. Out of curiosity I clicked on the link and this song started playing. I was instantly fascinated by the voice and the song. I got more curious and wanted to find out more. I logged into my youtube account and checked for his videos. I could see his youtube channel as Asapien now ROJAN. Well I shuffled through all the videos and also got to know few other singers from London Tina Rai, Mahanta Gurung 'Utpatang0'. I just loved his voice. Since then I have been his fan and a supporter. Later on I found out we've already been friends since long time I just didn't look at my notifications.

Being asked whether I could write about him or not, I guess he was just too shy. Anyways I managed to have a little conversation with him. He is just living life in a low profile for the time being but guess you might never know when he is going to make his comeback. He says,'I'm unpredictable in nature.' May be he is just hybernating and honestly I did not want to disturb him that much. Just few lines of his own :

'' Purano jati sabai singer/bands nai favourite ho .. School days huda mero cousin Billen guitar liyera aaunthyo ani malai gauna launthyo .. then I got inspired from his enthusiasm and started a small band with him .. Youtube was accidental .. I hardly listen to new artists so I lack knowledge on current situation .. I have no plans on singing really right now .. But that can change .. I m unpredictable in nature.. Yo bahek aru k vanu ..''
'Aru kei bhannu pardaina Rojan this much explains a lot.- Shaku'

I hope his new cover song or new song is out soon in his channel. I believe support from all your viewers and admirers of your voice would inspire you to carry on with your singing. I respect talent, it is something you are born with. Do show your support for him and may be he will come out of his shell. hehe Just a joke.

Thank you Rojan for your kindness.

A short trip to Northern Ireland

2012-09-05T02:34:00.000+01:00

Me, my sister and a brother and his wife suddenly decided to go for holiday together. It was their idea to chose Northern Ireland neither me or my sister had been there before. He planned everything, flights, accommodation and car hire.

The day finally came when we had to board flight to go to NI (Northern Ireland). It was an early flight. I tell you what, boarding Budget Airlines doesn't feel like a that kind of flying experience that you desire. I have always flown in Qatar Airways and other ones but always felt nicer there. The terminal felt like a Victoria Coach station and when we were actually there inside the plane I fell asleep. It was a mere 1 hour journey and there we were, ready to land on the NI soil. I didn't see any scenary cause I was sleeping and another reason was I was not in the window seat. :( But that is what we paid so that is what we get I guess. I have seen those budget airlines show in TV and imagined my journey was better than what they show in telly.
Funny thing is people actually stare at you cause we have different skin colour and they might have never spotted anyone like us so frequently.

It took us nearly an hour to get the car hire which was already booked. Soon after that we started roaming around Belfast international Airport. We went to nearby lake, Lough Neagh. A big lake whose waves felt as big as sea's waves. We still had a whole day to roam around so we decided to go to Silent Valley Reservoir. This place was recommended to me by a instagram follower 'frantic_photography' few days before our trip. That place was awesome. Some things and places are better of seeing yourself. It is amazing to see how human being managed to create such a thing, what a engineering at that time. I also paid tribute to those who died while building that reservoir. I can't explain how beautiful it felt to run wildly around that area. The sounds of massive fall of water, smell of grass, freshness of pure mountain water, the breeze that passed through my cheeks. We all were pretty exhausted and hunger stricken till we reached the apartment.
Luckily there was a Tesco store just below the apartment we stayed at. We cooked a proper dinner and before even finishing one single program in telly we fell asleep in couch.

Next morning we had planned to go to Portrush. Driving in Northern Ireland was a real fun. I tell you what, the roads were wider, toilet signs found everywhere, FREE PARKING signs were ludicrous and people of NI actually GIVE you WAY. I have driven in Cornwall, Devon, Dorset, Kent, East Anglia, Yorkshire, Wales, Sussex, Essex, Surrey, and many other places but never felt as nice as driving in NI. This time we stayed at ''No Alcohol and No hot food'' allowed in the room Youth Hostel. There were other people staying there as well. After we unpacked and relaxed, we wanted to go for stroll. According to the recommendation of the owner of the hostel, we decided to take the Causeway Coastal Route from Portrush towards Balintoy. Many beautiful places followed after that. White Park Bay, Carrick-a-Rede, Rope Bridge, Dunluce Castle, Giant Causeway and so on. It did rain for a short period other than that weather was favourable to our trip. To get to the Rope Bridge was 15 minutes walk. We didn't cross the bridge cause being NEPALI we already know how it feels like to be on a rope bridge. We have so many rope bridges ( झुलुंगे पुल ). The longest time we spent was at Giant Causeway. It was such a feeling which I do not have words to explain. We saw a lonely sea-lion as well. We met a really lovely couple Jeff & Christine from Seattle, USA. They were really nice people and we exchanged some conversation. Finding out that we were Nepali, seems like they were really excited. They said they would love to go there someday. It feels nice to hear that people know about Nepal. The waves were really really big comparision to the waves I saw in England. Just staring at the waves and seawater we spent lot of time there. In the evening ( the opening ceremony of ParaOlympics), we sat at a pub nearby and drank MUST not Miss drink - Guinness.

Natural formed hexagonal stones

The next morning I woke up earlier. I decided to go for a walk. The waves were even bigger in the morning. Slamming very hard on those rocks yet they could neither move nor deteriorate those coastal stones. I felt like '10,000 white horse running and rushing towards the shore. I have a video that shows briefly. We had to get to the airport by 3 pm so we couldn't really go anywhere else. Instead of that we decided to take a long drive and go through the mountains, forest and landscapes of NI. On the flight back, it was Air Lingus. Thanks god it was a little bit better service. I had a hunch that I could see something nice. I did see Anglesey and my sister saw Isle of Man from other side. It definately seemed like Snowdonia near Anglesey with high mountains. But I am not sure of it. I can see only clouds for some time. The clouds and the waves I saw in the morning looked similar. Some places, clouds looked like a Candy stick of Kate Perry song 'California Girls'. It is just amazing to how clouds stay like that. As soon as our plane entered London, we could see the dense houses, M25. I was more excited to see London Eye, O2, Thames River exactly the way I see in 'Eastenders', Parliament House, Oval Building, Tower Bridge and many many things I have known of. It was like a free Aeriel view of London. A boy infront of my seat was really excited as well. My heart was at peace after I saw Wembley Stadium, felt like home. I saw Wimbledon Centre Court, blue tank of Southall and so on. Landing was pleasant. After all the passengers got out I wanted to thank the pilot for bringing us safely to our destination. It might just be another journey of a day for him but not for me. The airhostess showed me where pilot was, just coming out of cockpit. I went to him on my way out and told him, 'Thank you for bringing me safely. I watch lot of those Aircrash Investigation program in National Geography Channel in youtube'. He laughed randomly and said, 'Oh none of that happened today' and gave a big smile. First time in my life I thanked any pilot.

Hence, there we were, in our city, London. As soon as we came out of plane we could see people of different ethnic background, busy and narrow roads, smells of curry in bus, and a car overtaking bus when oncoming traffic was just 2 or 3 yards away and so on. Still being in London feels different. It feels like home now.

My short trip budget trip to Northern Ireland was more than what we bargained for. If I get a chance in future I would love to go for 5 hour long walk through the Causeway Coastal Route.

Thank you for reading this long post. Hope you can feel what I felt there but again words aren't enough to explain the beauty of nature and the beauty of feeling awesome.

Thinking about Nepali Dress

2012-08-24T02:34:00.004+01:00

(Follow me in instagram - limshaku for more of my photography updates.)
Hello dear blog readers,

Again and again and many times I would like to thank everyone for reading my blog. I have dedicated my sleeps to this blog. It all started since the Day 1 when I could not sleep and thought about starting to write in a blog. I never knew I would come this far.

Anyways going back to topic, I did something today. I am suppose to go for so called Nepali Dance party where the theme is 'Nepali Dress' or something which looks like Nepali. I normally do not go to dance party nowadays but since this looked different and my dear friend lexlimbu called me I just could not say 'NO'. For many days I wondered what would I wear. This is common whenever I have to go for party. I guess it's common for all people. One questions kept mocking my mind, 'What could be Nepali looking dress?'. I got many suggestions from friends and family. Not to mention my sister didn't like any idea that I mentioned to her. Then I finally decided 'NO MATTER HOW VILLAGER ( पाखे ) I LOOK OR HIDEOUS MY DRESS WOULD BE OR EVEN FUNNY AMONG TEENAGERS', I am going to wear what I design and what looks like Nepali but modified. If am called Pakhey for wearing Nepali dress then I might as well be one. I don't care. My sister still doesn't like the dress I made. That's haha ''so her''.

I have learnt to do stitches long time back in school as a vocational subject. I still haven't forgotten it. With a help of another sweet sis, I have created a little skirt and a top. I could not post it at the moment but when the time comes I will definitely put the photo. I am scared to use sewing machine so I just did it by hands, Trust me I had few oouch moment when the needle poked my thump. I love the end result but I cannot judge my own creation. Hopefully you will judge and comment on it later when I post it on my blog.

I am neither a designer nor a professional tailor but still if I try I can make a dress. That is how I felt today. I look forward to see how the guys and girls show their patriotism by wearing something which shows Nepalism (just the word popped up in my mind). :P :D

Aren't you curious how it looks like? haha nothing to superb.

Keeping visiting!!

A twitter meeting

2012-08-15T02:51:00.002+01:00

Hey there,

bihe ma khana nai important re kya hehehhe

I couldn't believe that I was actually going to see these awesome people whom I often chat in twitter. The common thing for us was 'we all loved tweeting' and being socialise. Thanks to a (twitter) friend who invited us to his wedding reception. Many congratulations to him. We all had so much fun being there. It was worth travelling all the way up there. Everyone asks me how did you know him and I find it funny as well as interesting to say ' I met him in twitter'. It was so nice to see few more of my twitter buddies. For instant, as usual, we all were stuck to our phones to tweet. hehe

girls girls girls

Few weeks back a sweet sister from Nepal (also tweet buddy) visited London. It was nice meeting her too. I invited her over dinner and all we could think about was how nice it would have been if other few of our tweet buddies were here.

I never, even in my wildest dream. thought that I would actually meet somebody from my virtual world in a real life. This feeling is so different. I really love to meet few more of them in near future and share some real words rather than '140 characters'.

My twitter followers are amazing.

the venue was brilliantly decorated.
