Life Swings like a Rollercoaster!!!!!

Dear Blog.....

I am sorry for i was away from you for so long..well what choice do i have , 14 hours of load shedding has made our life miserable and the only thing i can imagine is pulling out every last hair left of those people responsible for doing so.

Anyways have been busy traveling around, sun basking in our early Spring...and yes hiking like never before. Its getting warmer here and with the warmth of the sun my brain seems to be more creative than ever...shall tell you my plans later however i am content with my Kathmandu city these days... and the reason why??? ....I tell you whyyyy;GARBAGE: Kathmandu city has managed to keep greenyyy dustbins everywhere so we do not have to worry and wait for the vechile to come every morning... we can just dump it anytime we like it :). The traffic though still annoying has become much more well routed and controlled. Atleast apart from the NO- ELECTRICITY, we have so much to look forward to and take a deep breath for things are getting into shape slowly.... Oh yes not to mention, we have a huge Highway now and people have begun getting so nervous that there is a road mishap every after alternate days and finally i hear we have overhead bridges coming up soon.

I had been to the eastern part of Nepal lately and that made me feel so refreshed that i never felt like coming back, probably spending time with my parents after so long was another reason too. I even imagined myself settling somewhere in the hillside like HEIDI...growing grapes, seasonal vegetables, making friends with the elderly people and yes adopting a Labrador. Well i was so lost and  had even imagined keep Horses until my dad said " Yes make a picture of the Horse and run around imagining you are riding in one".Overall i fell in love with the place i visited, so simple yet so mesmerizing and yes people were happy and content in life they lived. The journey to reach there was long forgotten when i reached there, it was just the simplicity that made me fall for it.

Well now is the beginning of the best season, Spring - the wind here is chill yet the sun dances along with the wind so beautifully that i feel like packing my big bag and going for a picnic somewhere, our Mountain shines far away yet so proudly embracing half of the valley. Every morning while making coffee i love the view from my kitchen, there are apricot blooms everywhere makes me feel happy for no reason at all. The air is much more fresh enough to make everyone's skin glow and yes there is a feeling of Happiness every where, probably because it is also the wedding season.

Neverthless...i am busy with my spring cleaning and yes highly awaiting to plant few more indoors, all i am waiting for is to hit the pool as it gets warmer here....with my sun glasses on to bask the perfect sun and yes not to forget to view the upgrade of my country in more details :)..


Till I come up with more fascinating stories, here i say goodbie :)

Beginning of the Year: I THINK A LOTTTTT

Dear Blog...

Its 5 Degree today and Kathmandu city is freezing; coffee, wollen socks, hot water bags has become my best friend. Sorry i could not write much for it was way too freezing to sit in the bathroom and write. Well Electricity cuts are 11 hours a day and lately i have been busy swinging myself in the Rythm of Zumba :). So many New year resolutions were made yet its 2nd Jan 2011 and i have forgotten half of it....... infact deleted half of it for i thought its too much of a responsibility for me :)

My country, My pride has shown hell lot of improvements, in comparison to my last blogs, there are Green Garbage buckets i see in places to places. Numbers of Pissers have rapidly gone down, however the trademark still remains there and i have stopped my morning walks.The best part is... people who donot use overhead bridges to cross the road, a new penalty has been enforced by the Traffic Police.... last i saw was two beautiful college girls taken by traffic Aunties and i heard they were detained in the Police station for 1 hour. Good Rules, it might annoy people but its for our best Right? After all what are the bridges for :). Hmm i saw many road mishap on the New Years Eve, phew!

Well members of HAN ( HOTEL ASSOCIATION OF NEPAL), NTB ( NEPAL TOURISM BOARD) and NATA (NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF TRAVEL AGENTS), welcomed 2011 on 31st Dec with a BANG...... wish i could upload some pictures now, but i forgot my mobile cables and cannot. Well BANG does not mean Fireworks in Nepal nor does it mean cheerful and color full people, there was a BIG rally which seemed to block the entire roads. Phew Welcome VISIT NEPAL 2011... even i am joining the inauguration of NTY on 14th Jan 2011. I hope we got loads and loads of Visitors this year, for Nepal is a beautiful country, and not all regions of Nepal is polluted. Its just Kathmandu :)....the other regions are Mystifying and the only Heaven on Earth i must say.

Well no more complaints now, for it snowed in some parts of the Country. Kathmandu in New years day looked much more beautiful than ever, it seemed like its ready to Shine for Visit Nepal 2011. It rained on the New Years Eve so yesterday we had much more clearer and cleaner day. Hmmm however i was busy attending my sister's son's birthday party, I realized last month was real hectic on me and felt asleep even in such enjoyment. :)........ November December is a busy period for me and yes with so much Drama going on in my life...it was real too much of a closure for 2010.

I had been busy reading the horoscope how would my 2011 be, had been angry on the 1st Jan for i had not received any call from the most expected one...there some where it said BAD BAD about my relation :(...the worst was " I am INCLINED to Date a New Person", " He shall have a relation with someone" ...bla bla bla...what does that mean; felt like slapping the Predictor....in fact i believe things will be just fine and i know how i feel and i have faith in US...not just ME. Thinking negative shall only increase lines on my faces which i had promised myself i wont allow to happen so. Phew! what else...let us not keep wondering how this year shall be or comparing how this year was in comparison to last year. Let us live life day by day, exploring and unwrapping every secret in stored and learning lesson from the necessary.... Putting up a BIG smile on our faces....for its another year we have in hand to mend the past, to live the present and make the future....

Cheers...HAPPY NEW YEAR...better late than Never.... :)
