The writer of this obscure blog fancies crazy things like Salsa , Enduro , touring new places on foot, night outs , Adventure. Some call it Adrenaline rush.
So ,this writer gathered up all the courage and she finally joined Salsa club with the ulterior motive of losing those extra calories.Extra calories are like your true friends ,they never seem to leave you!!To be also noted that the writer is a novice when it comes to complexities of life like dancing et al and therefore comrades are solemnly requested to not panic or to be shocked on the first sight.
First day.Excited. Learnt a few steps and probably caused a few tremors. After the first class.
A Dialogue between writer and her friend.

A Dialogue between writer and her friend.
Shahana: Hey! So, How was your salsa class ?
Me: Oh, It was fun but..
Shahana: So,were there any hot firangs ?
Me:Tragedy of life!I did not get to dance with any firangs, there were so many desis!
Shahana: "Thats Georgia Tech for you ,my dear :P"
Me:Indian Ghetto,frown.
Inspite of such a big upheaval in life, the writer is still looking forward to the next class.
Another dialogue in a Grad student's life. The writer was in the computer cluster of her university trying to finish her assignment in the last moment.There was a novel with a green cover by Amitav Ghosh next to her on the desk.
Aparna: Hey, What is this green thing ?
Me: Hey, How are you,Whats up these days?
(We share Masters woes)
Aparna:Oh, life is bad but better than the last sem.I am drowned in research up to my neck.
Me:ummmm..hmmmm..(long thought-guilty)...Excellent! I was just reading this book by blah blah..
Aparna: WHAT!!!! Do you get time to do such things?!
Me: ummmmm...(I wanted to say,I hardly do any research work) but then out of embarrassment...oh I carry it with myself and read it whenever I get time..I know grad students have no time(lying to the core!)
To my shame, I have incorporated new ways of katoing lukkha in other forms like Guitar classes and crossword fever these days.
Upheavals,Upheavals,they are everywhere,Why escape them.
