Journey of the perplexed mind

TALE OF TECH CITY - PART 1

Two weeks have passed since I arrived in Bangalore, or Bangaluru, as the locals put it. Things have settled down a little, I have adjusted a little. For instance, I have finally managed to get hold of a newspaper vendor. “Times of India” arrives every morning nowadays. In the absence of a Net connection in my training place (forget TV), it’s my only channel to the outside world. Got hold of a FM player as well. Health problems continue, though. Got a control (touchwood) on my tendencies to catch cold everyday, but I have caught a dust allergy here. The regions around the eyes are highly swollen.
Another frustrating aspect of Bangalore is the Traffic condition on the road. Every two minutes you will encounter a jam, and it takes a goddamm 5-6 minutes to cross a 2-lane road for heaven's sake! Walking on footpath is no fun either. The bikes and cycles will always be on your heals.
Anyways, training is going on at full scale. What it means for me is that I can barely sleep for 6 hours in morning and study whenever I am at my PG home. Haah, somebody better put me back in my place!!
