A JOURNEY CALLED LIFE

How long has it been that internet is in India? Approximately 30 years I think! The first cables were laid at around 1986. As far as my tryst with Internet goes,ts been around 15 years! But what has remained consistently inconsistent throughout these years is the speed! Indians are the second largest Internet users after China. But when it comes to speed, India is at the 135 th position! Thanks to Internet, everything came at our tips. WE could download movies, TV shows, articles etc etc. A movie download meant keeping our systems on throughout the night. But the mornings would be promising as we got to see it! Slow yet steady, internet became a part and parcel of our lives. Thankfully the scenario has been changing since the fast few years. With the advent of wifi, life became easier. Then with the advent of smartphones, came the quintessential blessing...mobile data! We got Internet at our tips...whenever wherever.  First it was 2G..which was slow but still mobile internet.

I am not a cook myself. Ask my wife..she always grumbles! But the way to the heart is through stomach. So often I whip up something but with a twist! When I received Del Monte's farfalle pasta, I decided to come up with something! Since I am a pure vegetarian, I decided to go green! I whisked up a meal of Del monte pasta in green sauce! Here is what I did: Ingredients: 2 cups of Del Monte farfalle pasta (serves 2) 2 medium size onions 2 medium size capsicum Extra virgin Olive oil Salt to taste For the green sauce: A bunch of fresh coriander leaves 15 garlic cloves half a cup of shredded cheddar cheese 2 teaspoons of olive oil 10 pistachio nuts (any nut would do) Salt to taste. Materials and Equipements: Grinder Wok Vessel Knife, Chopping board Preparation Time: 15 minutes Cooking time: 15 minutes  Method: 1. Fill a bowl with water and bring it to boil. Add the pasta and add a pinch of salt. Boil till al dente (10 minutes) Boil the pasta 2.

Sometimes I feel that I am a part of the incredible Zen family. I had already been to two zenfone launches and this was my third one. But this time it was not simply a phone launch, it was the Zen Festival! Moreover, Bollywood hottie Sonakshi Sinha was going to come! I was super excited but it was a Thursday! Too bad! I had myriads of patients in the hospital. Thankfully it was not a surgery day otherwise there was no chance I could have made it! I reached late at around three. There was a sea of crowd. Bloggers, media, tech people and college students...the auditorium was brimming with people! Did I mention the venue? It was Jawahar Lal Nehru Stadium! The moment I saw the venue, I knew that it was going to be one huge meet. But when I made it to the venue, it was more than I could have imagined! The crowd was indeed maddening. I somehow managed to grab a seat to catch hold of the presentation of the products. I had missed the awesome drummer performance which was at the beginning.
