Namma Bengaluru

Quick post before I shutdown my laptop for the last time in Bangalore.

It has been a wonderful time here in Bangalore and I've loved every minute of it.

Like I can't get tired of telling friends.... if there ever were one city after Calcutta which could make me feel at home, it could only have been Bangalore.

I Love this city from the bottom of my heart and the people of Bangalore will always have a special place in my memories. Every body, all my colleagues at office to the shop-owner who sold me all those Maggi packets...all of you have helped me create some magical memories which I shall treasure forever.

Love you all so much...

And yes...at the end of these 6 months... I can only smile and proudly proclaim...you are... "Namma Bengaluru".

Cheers !!

The Empire strikes back

News which I'm not sure whether to be proud of or be worried about: 30 inch trousers no longer fit me !!

Went to a store yesterday to buy a new pair of trousers, only to discover that I now have a 32 inch waist. This from a guy who spent most of his college and MBA years wearing 28 inch trousers. It has only been in the last year or so that I had graduated to 30 inch trousers. Apparently, they are nearing their expiry date too.
