Break I

I always think and ask myself, how easy it was in Nepal to keep in touch with everyone, friends, family, relatives, and everyone including your neighbors. But in US, your life is so routinely rigid and monotonous that you hardly have a time to take a break. And if you are an international student, you are financially, socially and educationally bound to your strict routine.

For me, I am a free bird and I have rules too. I work all day in a week. But whenever I think I need a break, I take off from my everyday life. I go to visit my friends and have a chilling time. It wasn't so very easy in the beginning, but as the time flew, I blossomed.

Most of my friends are busy here - some in the college, some in their business and some in their work. So that is why we meet every once here and there only in the special occasion like wedding, birthday and other parties.
Was it like this in Nepal?
As I remember, it was much easier to see everyone back home. We even knew the names of all the neighbors and their kids too and even their dogs. There used to be bhusya kukur on the streets all the time, which did annoy me then but now seems much fun just to think about it. I, easily get off the topic. Anyways, we had so many festivals in a year and so many holidays that everyone are to keep in touch with each other.

Night Bus Service

I just read an article that says Night Bus Service in Kathmandu, Nepal. This was one of my entrepreneurial ideas that I thought for a while to start a public transportation for the night commuters. But it's all right that the government is doing so. KMC-Kathmandu Metropolitan City is starting this service as a trail period for 3 months and if they don't make enough profit, they might just close the service. This is not so very good news that KMC hasn't done an enough Business Planning, so as to sustain if, for some reasons, the economy collapses.
The service is set to start from the Nepali New Year.
I hope them all the best.

Mindfull of music

I usually turn on Pandora-an internet non-stop radio, and listen to mind soothing blues, jazz, country and southern rock. If I had written this article about 10 years ago, I would have said I love Heavy Metal, Thrass Metal, Black Melodic Metal, Satanic Metal and only Metal specifically from 80's. But now I like to listen to soft rock and lots of blues and ballads these days.
I really don't understand this why as the age goes by everything changes. That was why may be, my dad used to listen to old folk Nepali songs and we all the kids used to say..Please not them old old songs.
And today I learned about a new song-writer named Emmylou Harris. I have never listened to her but today and I just felt in love with her voice, soooo soothing...

I think I should write about my favorite bands like one band everyday in my blog.
This sounds pretty amazing but you know what...I am very lazy and get distracted very easyly by the things around me. But I am trying all my best to get focused on one thing and only one thing before moving to another subject.

Good luck to me and keep listening some good music.

A nice orange
Eat everyday

Restore and Recover

This has been more than 10th time I said to myself that I will quit on drinking. But again every weekend I like to drink, not a lot but still I couldn't keep up on my resolutions. But I am happy for myself on one thing and I am proud of it too even I drink. "I WORKOUT". Yes, I've been running on the treadmill for 2 years now. Maybe that is why, I haven't gained any weight even if I drink on a usual basis. Everyday I run 2.5 miles in 30 minutes and lift weight another 30 minutes.
I promised myself that by May 15th I will have a nice abs. Hopefully I will continue on my "Restore Health" venture and succeed.
But I want to recover from my drinking too. Actually, I drink only 3 days a week form 5 days a week. If I stop on weekend, then I am completely done with my drinking. After that I will try to be a social drinker.

So hopefully I will be able to Restore and Recover my health.

Boundaries...

Fallen dreams and scattered hopes
Broken relationships and mental turmoil
Those times, when I needed the most
Had none to sat on someones shoulder

Nights fallen into dark and darkness around
Wait till everything is unreal and unseen
Why? I ask to my self everyday..
and the answer is always same

Japan Tour Great time with the family.
