He opened his eyes to darkness, he reached for his mobile to check the time. It said 3.50 am. He felt the unbearable pain behind his forehead, he sensed the difficulty to breath through both the nostrils, a tiny drop of fluid run down his nose. He stared at the ceiling. The medicine he took before going to sleep last night didnt help, he felt worse than yesterday.

Sanu woke up 25 minutes early , alarm was set to 4.15 am. The 5.28 am train would leave Prague to Budapest without him, he first trip outside the Czech republic will be postponed, people who will be waiting for him will be disappointed. Keeping back the mobile, he searched for the water bottle, he came to a half sitting position, raised his head and had some water. Lying back on the bed he thought about the cancellation of his trip, everyone around him had gone to many places,he was the only one who never went traveling and he was looking forward for this trip for almost an year, to get the visa which would make it possible to travel in EU with no spl visa.

Health, is more valuable than we think it is, it could change your life.

Hole in her Shoes

The red metro train cruised through the dark underground tunnels of Prague cutting across the layers of chill air. Inside stood Sanu in the last compartment of the train, leaning his back on the back door of the train. He put on the earphone and played an audio book in this mp3 player. His eyes turned to be an observer and his ears transformed into a child listening to bedtime stories.
"say something nice to me wanatabe" was the first words from the earphones and words will continue to pour out till he reached his work in vaslavske namesti.

As his eyes observed, a girl with big blue fashionable bag gets in from "Budeloviska" station, she went to an empty seat which she might have spotted before getting in the train. This seat faced the back door where Sanu's observing eyes stood. She left the blue bag hung on her left arm, it was weightless, and opened a magazine and started turning the pages to find something to read.

Tough being stylish she was dressed to keep herself warm. She wore a grey thick coat which seems to be made of woolen, under it she had a blue pullover which matched the color of the bag yet more bright. She seems to have a blue tiny dot ear rings, I am not sure if she had the tiny ear ring for real, but it seemed to him that she had a matching ear ring too. Her hair was straight and short and didn’t cover most of her face, normal eyes but with a wide lip.

His eyes were stuck and continued to stare at a small hole in her canvas shoe. She wore the girly canvas shoe which is very popular here in Czech Republic and it had round opening on the top part, above the big toe of her left shoe. Here was this girl so well dressed, a style with perfect attention to matching color and wore a shoe with hole in it. This curiosity led sanu’s eye to search for the other shoe and to his delight it had a same hole exactly in the same place like it’s a mirror reflection. I wondered by a girl like that should be wearing a torn shoe like that. which was when he notice her big toe reaching out though the torn hole, she was actually pushing her big toe up and down, her face didn’t have a slightest reflection of her act, it was not that she was enjoying it ,it was more like an natural act. She continued to play with her big toe till they both got out in the same museum station. No wonder her why her shoes had holes. She went out of the train and walked towards right and me left.

Code Name: Agent 001

Code :001
Agent Name :Sanu
Findings: The 4th white hair was found while combing the hair after a long bath in hot shower today.

Situation:Recession is on the way and stability which was not there in the first place is threatened. Cold Climate. Reaching Spring in 02 months.

Conclusion: More white hairs is on the way

Risks: What else in on the way, no idea at all
A stream of thoughts always seems to be attached to me where ever I go these days.
Not cheerful nor depressing but definitely not thoughts abt me sitting on the sea shore
sipping chilled beer. But of someone searching for his beliefs, what of what he know should he believe in or should he keep searching for something that might come.

*‘A man who doubts himself is like a man who enlists in the ranks of the enemy and bears arms against himself. He makes his failure certain by being the first to be convinced of it.’*

Alexandre Dumas

Came across this in a friends blog, I wanted to add them to mine too.

Pel'meni party







Pel'meni is Russian specialty.

Its basically meat balls coated with flour, boiled. They say its best with Vodka :) It was awesome! The invitees were Russian speakers only, though I dont speak Russian I enjoyed the food!

At the party there was also that fish salad(the salad in which they put salted fish as such(without cooking), however the fish element was very less, so it was also tasting good for me.

Chineese chopsticks

It interesting to lean how to catch Chinese chopsticks in a club, no not a Chinese girl.Its interesting when you stand next to 2 Czech girls, your friend talking to them, once in a while i say a word when they ask or speak in English, rest of the time i am trying chopstick trick with two straws on the lemon piece in my cub Libra(vodka cola and lime). And guess what, I learned the trick perfectly in 3 hours standing next to 2 beautiful Czech girls at 3 am. Hurray!

No music while walking!

Listening to music while walking is now prohibited.

Since last Sunday (February 1st) Slovakian streets have new laws to reinforce road safety; lower speed limits and higher fines are two of the new measures, and now Listening to music while walking is now prohibited.

Can you belive it????

I used to have this thought "It happens only in India" always, but this is weired , i guess i should change the quote to "shit happens everywhere"


Cheers!

Morning was muffled, the horizons had no light. Warm air filled The house from the heat from the central heating system, but outside snow was shattered all around. He had to wake up earlier than usual, it was 6.15 am when his alarm went off from his mobile. He took a long
bath in hot water, which he loved to do everyday since the winter started.


Sanu arrived 15 minutes early for the appointment at the Foreign Police, the rough sketched map found handier than expected. The girl from the agency who was supposed to meet him and assist through the process was still not there. He continue listening to songs from Dill6
with the default earphone of his iaudio player in the cold.

"delloit" asked a girl with red shaded hair

"Monster" I replied.

"oh, ano. Please " she had mellow eyes, it was evident that she didn’t know any English even though she had not spoken much. The one and half hour wait followed
they spoke about different subjects, she spoke in Czech and he spoke less in English and more in
actions.


He recollected she saying "Czech people are nebezpečný(dangerous), they could kill"
she wanted to go away from Prague and live in London!. at least that’s what he understood,
Did you hear that, London! Leaving Prague!

She wants to start her life outside Prague and settle somewhere else. Its true with all nationalities I guess, earlier my thought that only in India ,people feel of going outand working or settle because of its present condition. Many people I met wants the same,
One person from the Ukraine dont wants to settle in Ukraine but in Prague, One person from
Mexico wants to settle in France, another one from Prague went to work in Ukraine...and many more

And as a conclusion, there is not conclusion, only that
Humans are complex!
