Dats what was my Orkut name for a majority of the past 6 months or so.... Very people are aware why so.... Sadly I am not one of dem...... but a lots of guesses.... I tried to dig in and find out the reasons..but alas..codnt succeed...and then the title itself speaks a lot....
When I landed @ Heathrow ... here at UK I just thot that I will be landing altogether on a different planet.. where I will be finding a lot of aliens..behaving in a quite strnage manner( to me)...(N.O.M.)...but to my utter surprise, I found that I have reached Mumbai yet again...... The same chaos... and same crowd and similar people... The cab driver was waiting for m outside to drop me at Ipswich.. and it took him around an hour to come out of Heathrow thru multi level parking.. He was pissed off.. (Dont mind the language..I codnt find a better word to describe his situation)...and was complaining "You will not find a second airport in the world where it takes an hour to get down from 3rd floor".. I suddenly struck me 'Yeaahh. I found one...'Situation is same everywhere b it India or UK.. people find it very easy to ridicule about others... Anyways I didn't like him boasting about UK.I was very really hurt.. and replied him back... "Its not the case Steve... we have one in India as well".... and he codnt stop smiling... he wod have thot as well that he found one.....
After reaching Ipswich....I went thru what people call 'Jet Lag'. Was feeling sleepy...My roomies were telling due to jet lag.. I consoled myself( Didnt believe in jet lag).. telling them its due to journey.. I am feeling tired and sleepy. Slept and got up at 3:00 in morning on Sunday.. Still I prided in getting up early..but wen was feeling sleepy yet again at 8:00 P.M.; codn't help but believe in Jet Lag...
Leaving the lag lagging behind.. I was back to normalcy in a few days..... and continued my journey further.... The best timepass for Ukeites.. is to talk about weather..and dey go on talking abt it.... till the weather doesn't improve even after a lot of cursing.. and they seem to remember, it cant be helped... I codnt find much of a difference( Now I am exaggerating this....) except for the facts that people here are self-dependent... there are more cars than people.. people here follow traffic rules..they are cordial..vehicles run at the speed of sound and still no accidents take place......and most importantly.....whole city is clean..... you can wear a T-Shirt.. twice without using Denim or AXE.......(Now dats not much of a difference..)Though this is not complete truth that eveyone @ UK adheres to this;there are quite a few who dont know the rules..but deb they are very few..contrary to India..... (Again NOM)...
Now some similarities...half of (what I have visited till date) is India.... with Indians lying here and there..and there is a place..Eastham where u can without an iota of doubt tell dat u r in India with some foreigners visiting this place.....Now anoder catch here.. Indians dont really mean people from India( but all the people of sub continent are referred as Indians..)
Dats enuf of UK and India......but den I have just started n this was abt wht I cod have written........
Chao.....
