Oblivious to the Obvious

So how many of you saw the stunning video on Google Assistant making a phone call on behalf of the user to make an appointment at a salon? They call it the Google Duplex and it pretty much understands the nuances of speech and answers just like humans.  I am sure you guys would have watched it. Well, it is a game changer isn’t it? The idea is not far fetched. In no time we are going to have assistant making calls for us.  Likewise, I bet you would have noticed the advertisements for Google Home and Amazon’s Alexa too. And I am also seeing a lot of people actually buying and using it. They are so thrilled with the new technology that they cannot resist buying it and flaunting about it in their social media sites. After seeing Google’s duplex video, I was so amazed by the technology but the same time too nervous about it.In fact it started bothering me so much that I could not get it out of my head that day. To make things worse, I ended up watching a series of episodes fr

What To Write ?@!#?

Well, hello guys. I am writing this post after probably mulling and pondering over a long time. Yes!!!And instead of writing about some particular topic, I decided; Why not write about “What to write??” I was very much stuck to the question of; what should I write? I am convinced that it is just not something pertaining to me, but with many others as well. People all over, have this fascination to write something interesting, but simply cannot figure out what that interesting thing is. Now, let me take you along the roller coaster ride inside my mind. At the beginning, the idea of writing a blog post kicked-in with super excitement, and slowly after contemplating on so many topics, the eccentricity started to fade like a zero watts bulb.                                                                                           Yep!!tats all me feeling like as if I discovered Gravity!! I happened to watch a video of a girl from North Korea yesterday (Courtesy of

“To travel is to take a journey into yourself” - Danny Kaye     Hello there! Once again thanks for taking time to read my post. This is the first time I am writing a travelogue, so hope you will enjoy reading it. So, I finally got out of my lazy life, and decided to go for that long-planned yet never executed vacation. My friends and I decided it was Thaila nd and Singapore.  Let me not bombard you with the entire trip at one shot, so I have split the travelogue into two.  Firstly, I will tell you about Phuket-Thailand and then about Singapore.        We first landed in Phuket, Thailand. We stayed near the Patong Beach at Deevana Resorts and Spa .  Patong is a happening place at Phuket and most of the tourists’ holiday at this spot. The roads are filled with food stalls, cafes, bars, pubs, massage parlous, shopping places, etc. The small coastal town is simply high on energy and bustling with nightlife. After loitering around Patong for the night and managing with s

Boys Don’t Cook!!!

I am hoping that you are one of those people who got provoked with my title as to “Why shouldn’t boys cook??” then Bingo!! You are on the right page. Once again thank you for taking the time to read my post. After meeting many women out there, I decided to write this post. In fact, I am a bit dazzled and infuriated with some of the women that set in motion to write this article. I have written a story that closely describes what is in my mind.  Here goes the story... Swetha is all dolled up and happily moving around friends and family on the day of her engagement party. She had met  Suraj probably twice before. He was now holding her hand and walking her around lovingly. Swetha was an MBA holder, and was now working as a Senior Manager in an MNC. Her parents had done the matchmaking for Swetha and concluded that by all means Suraj was the best fit. Suraj’s mother brings along a small group of relatives and proudly introduces Swetha to them. Slowly after the crowd di

Hello my dear reader! Once again thank you for taking the time for reading my post. On a lighter yet older note, I just turned 27!!! :) I am somewhat surprised myself by the way I have taken it. It feels like a fresh start and a happy year ahead. And look what I got for my big day! Yes, it is an Amazon Kindle Paperwhite from a loved one. Since I have always wanted one of those, I was super excited to have it. Now let me tell you, I am not particularly a voracious reader, but I do enjoy reading a bit every day. So, as you can guess, I have been pretty much busy with my Kindle; I thought I will give you guys a review about it. It might help a few people out there to decide on buying it.   To start off, it is simply amazing. It is sleek, small and compact. When you read pages from it, it feels like you are reading a paperback version of the book. The device is very light to hold and you can simply sit back and dwell into you story at

Signs that you are in a good relationship!!

Hello there, thank you for taking the time to read this post. I would like to tell you that this post is completely based on my opinion and experience in life. I am no love-doctor or love-guru. However, with whatever knowledge I have, I think these broadly determine the quality and longevity of a good relationship.  So, the following are signs that you are in a good relationship…  You are honest with each other. Yes, it might sound a little  cliche , but trust me, when you are honest with one another and can look right into their eyes and say the truth, the chances that you might stick along for a long time is high. You can talk anything under the sky with your partner and still feel comfortable with them. Yes, if you people have been talking a lot with each other; sharing all your life’s experiences and expressing your silly dreams; then probably you are on the right track. You can feel a sense of calm around him / her. When your everyday routine can get you on your

Stop Right Now!!!

Hi there, thank you once again for taking your time to read this blog. Very recently while passing through a very familiar street in Bangalore, I realized that something was different in the street. The street looked wider and spacious. After mulling over for about a minute, it stuck me that the roads have become broader because the tress were cut down. It was very disheartening to see the road barren of the trees. The beautiful canopy of trees on both sides that provided so much shade and coolness was lost. The street felt devoid of life. Why would the government approve for such a depressing act. Are not people ever going to  realize  that we have already swiped off a fair share of nature, and the more we are destructing, the more we are nearing danger. I read in today’s news that the cab drivers in Delhi have initiated a protest. The protest was against the High court’s order of changing their diesel cabs to Compressed Natural Gas (CNG). The order was made two months ago
