No network coverage :);

No network coverage...zero connectivity...blank mobile phone screens... something we people come across multiple times. Most common when we are traveling, camping etc. The very general reaction when we see a screen showing no network is "ohh shitt...how when i make calls..i have something important to communicate".
Why I am writing such a blog, simple recently I was on a jungle camp when I realized there was no network coverage. At first I felt sad, agonized, n worried how will I contact people,what if somebody wants to communicate something important. But slowly as the day passed I was rather happy and contended. I had no bsnl n TD adds buzzing, I was free from any worries whatsoever, I wasnt roaming here n there to make any calls. Life for those few hours was a lot more peaceful and simple. That is when I thought about wrinting about this not so popular and unconventional thing.
I am not here to debate that technology and mobiles and internet are a blessing, I know they are and even I can exist some hours without them but I really believe a few hours without them are just more relaxing than any other spa treatment or meditation.
"Lage raho munnabhai" a very famous and acclaimed bollywood flick had its lead actress saying this...that in today's decade we have time and net to stay in touch with everyone in this world,but we are not even aware of our neighbor's name. We have time to make a call every hour asking our gf/bf "baby you had your food naa" but we are so busy to call our maa and ask "how is she doing". Thats the agony technology beholds.
All I wanted to communicate was that learn to live happily, don't be too technology dependent, our grandparents had no mobile phones and definitely lead a healthier and happier life. turn off your phones for some time. Forget the fear that something bad might happen...it will reach you. Forget that somebody must be trying to contact you, the life on planet earth is not ending, you will get to talk. Get off such addictions. Live the simpler life. Go around chat with people around, walk, laugh. take time out people for yourselves just you.

NoIDa-NcR

Hello...first thing..this is no wikipedia that is conveying the altitudes and geographical and other details about this city. Its just how I perceive this city, what this place has given and taken from me.4 yrs back I moved out of the small city "Bhopal" to the the city of dreams,passion,crazy people delhi. Well I resided in the in campus hostel in Noida. Still I did get to taste the capital and life people had here. The most important and significant thing this place teaches you is independence. Independence to move around freely, to think without any firewalls, to do what you want to, what makes you happy. This place taught me that not everyone is a pure soul, its high time learn to recognize and deal accordingly with people.
What I love the most about this place is that its just not you who is running, running the race of professional excellence, competition, its just not you who has having her ass on fire, every face is.
When at times I feel low and I look around every face is wearing a fake smile hiding things that you never even imagined they suffered from. Well I love the place for its undying karizma since ages, a perfect blend of history and future. I have seen Delhi changing. I do love the concrete jungles, the skyscrapers, the malls. But what I love about this place is the Delhi Metro, the DMRC. Its just not that it makes reach every hook and corner of the city conveniently, its the chance it gives me to observe everytime I travel. Look around you will find uncles talking about there experiences,telling what Delhi was when they moved in. You will find aunties discussing the growing onion and arhar daal rates. You will find love at first sights happening. A crazy gang of friends pulling each others legs. Thats where You see Delhi right infront your eyes.
Well yes I do love the food, the gol gappas, the allo ke parathe, momos, chai,chaat everything cooked n selled on the streets, specially at places like chandani chauk. N the colours of culture.
Every monument that holds a story makes Delhi rich. N so is with Noida. I dont like the city much because being too much of a concrete jungle, n shooping malls. I miss some natural things here. I wish Noida was a lot more original and safe.
But these were the technical details. Well yaa one more thing I met a marathi speaking sardaar here. Not every where no find such cases but India and that too delhi. I love to roam around alone in this place, explore the new dimensions, forgetting all that troubles me. I love this place because it gave me freedom. I met many new people. It gave me experiences that made me grow. I actually grew into a girl from a dumb teen when I came here. N yaa it taught me how to bargain. N to not to forget the "gallis"you learn here, some special addons to your boring vocabulary. I did loose my innocence, I turned into a clever and smart gal, good and bad. I do miss that cute innocence. But to survive in this at times ruthless place You become that way. NCR is incomplete without mentioning the night life here. But sorry I have no such experience to share.
Well this place teaches you, slaps you, makes you fall and helps you to get up. It does take away some special parts in you, but for better. These 4 yrs were the best of my life, and a lot of the credit goes to the place that accepted me and loved me. "Apnapan" thats what I feel here.
P.S.- It did give me precious friends and the love of my life :)
