Ride in Ideon It's was normal day and the watch in the main entrance gate @ watertowers showed 4:42 pm. I had a meeting @ Ideon Alpha-2 which was little far off where i was assigned to sit during my biz trip. The meeting was going to start at 5 and i had no clue how to get there. Upon asking the lady @ the reception, she handed me over a MAP and next thing she told is you can take a bike as no shuttle services are available to get you there in time...sorryyy..B.I.K.E.i dont even have a valid licence to drive anything in Sweden neither in Japan as well..but later i found out that she meant BIKE as Cycle(ohh..what a relieve) not bad start though ! So my journey started off from Watertowers to Ideon Alpha-2, time was running by but i was told that taking the cycle is the fatest way to reach my destination incase you dont have any other option:-)With this belief i just rolled down the road cutting the chilling cold. Hmmm.. taking cycle on the road was little odd with map folded in one ...
Nordic Trip My very first Nordic trip began this Feb 2 starting from Narita taking a Austrian Airlines all the way to Vienna or you may call in Wien in the country's own language. But this is not the final destination that i was suppossed to go but i had to take another flight up here from Vienna to Copenhagen. The next thing i had to do is to take a train over the oresund brigde all the way to Lund Central. At the end of the day when i thought over about the time that took me to reach up here in Lund from Tokyo, it was close to 24 hours! Weather up here is not that chilling as it used to be in Tokyo but its little foggy something spooky with few people around, huge old building something that reminds me of a classics movie shot in 1940s!Well the only thing that different is that cars and buses have replaced the horses and horse-carts. Only thing that seeme to be still there is bicycles! I still have a sometime to move around the place and check some lovely places out here during m...
Relax dont do it ! With so much of work pressure and stress in this competative market, we hardly get any time to sleep or relax a bit totally forgetting the hardships that you have done for the whole day.But ultimately we end up gettings ourselves more stressful and So when i searched on the net on how to make myself less prone to stress and be relaxed, here are a bucket of lists of DO'S & DON'T ! - Reduce caffeine : Ahhhh..i can't..actually we all can't.its an energy drink for all of us.. - Restrict nicotine : i can do that.RESTRICT myself and others from having it ! - Avoid napping : I can do that but what about my fellow japs who doze off every now and then...its a awesome view..i enjoy every moment of it when they nap..hahaha NOTE : The bed should be used for sleep and sex only. If not, you can end up associating the bed with distracting activities that could make it difficult for you to fall asleep.

A $2,500 Car.... are u joking ? Its not a joke its a reality.. India's Tata Motors have just unveiled its much anticipated car, an ultra-cheap price tag that brings car ownership into the reach of tens of millions of people. But critics worry the car could overwhelm the country's roads and create an environmental nightmare. This pint sized car with a snub nose and a sloping roof and could fit 5 if they squeeze - called NANO which is 10 feets long and costs $2,500;that price which will make millions of indians to buy their very first car.Gets about 50 miles per gallon..well u have to sacrifice no ac , no radio !

The crowd was totaly stuck at the Ferrari stand and i was kind of lucky to take a glimpse of it...but my only regret was i couldn't lay my hands over it.. Lotus, Porche, VW, Mercedes, BMW, Lamborgini and quite a number of Japanese brands like Suzuki, Nissan, Mitsubishi made their presence felt to the audiences. Well i could sneak out and was successfully able to lay my hands over the beauties(when the MEN in TIGHTS not looking over me) dressed in Sexy Red, Mild Yellow ,El...

Amazing Medieval Samurai music Well i was surfing through the net when i came across this japanese band "Uttara Kuru"..some of their songs were so majestic that i felt as if i am back in those mediaval samurai days within the mountains deep inside the forest of trees bearing sakura flowers blossoming in the nature. When i searched for these band in Wiki, i came across one amazing fact that kind of googled me altogether - Tibet is where the uttara kurus came from.The celts are uttara kuru. Other than the Kurus of India ruled by the Pandavas and the Kauravas, there was this another kingdom called Uttara Kurus (Northern Kurus) to the north of Himalayas. The very fact these days that i find is none of the things that exist in this world whether its discovered or yet to be undisclosed has some way or the other has come hidden connnection with my motherland..after all we are such an civilization which contribute so much to the mankind and will continue to do so till the Apocalypse....

The Latest from Rooney, Four Years in the Making One look at the cover of California band Rooney’s latest album and you can’t escape an immediate association with The Beatles, mop-top haircuts and all. But one listen and instead of picturing yourself in a boat on a river with tangerine trees and marmalade skies, circa 1968, you’ll imagine you’re driving through Malibu in a vintage convertible, circa now. An impressive debut is difficult to beat, but Rooney’s latest “Calling the World” shows that the band has really figured themselves out musically. It’s easy to understand why the album was so long in coming. Check out their latest Song ~ When Did Your Heart Go Missing
My Historical Visit - Hiroshima Hiroshima's origins can be traced to the end of the 6th century and beginning of the 7th century when the area began to prosper.At the time, Hiroshima was divided into two regions, Aki and Bingo. Towns prospered along transportation routes through the mountains and on the inland sea. In August 1945, the city of Hiroshima was destroyed instantaneously with the dropping of the atomic bomb. Neighboring cities also suffered damage as a result of the war. Afterwards, through the ceaseless efforts of Hiroshima citizens, the region made an impressive recovery and is now continuing to develop as a center of government, economics, and culture in the Chugoku-Shikoku Region. My Journey to Hiroshima started early on the Morning of 14 July with one of friends on the World's one of the Most Fastest machines..designed none other than the Japanese itself ..so called the Shinkansen or u may call it Bullet Train. We went onboard of our journey on Shinkansen 700 S...
