After a long gap, I am writing this blog. Its almost four months since I wrote my previous blog. I really don’t know why I had such a long gap. Maybe you can even tell that I have lost my interest in writing blogs. Again if you ask me why, the real answer is I DON’T KNOW. Its not that I am busy or engaged in some kind of activities but the thing is I didn’t have anything interesting to write about. Then you can ask me whether I have come across something really good to write this blog. The thing which I am going to share over here may not be exciting for you people but it was really a adorable one for me.
I am now living in the city of Lincoln in Nebraska state of USA. I came here on 10th August. It is just a calm and nice little place to live, but nowhere near Chennai or any other busy cities in India. The most important thing is that you can hardly see people on the roads even on the working days. Then imagine for yourself on the weekends. But where as if you enter the N 23rd street where we Indians are staying, it’s a different scenario all together. Due to the Indian population in this area, an apartment over here is called as BHARATH VILLA (How is it???)
Once in this Bharath villa, almost all the apartments were occupied by the Indians. But now the Indian population has come down a bit. Ohh nooo… I have not told you why I have come to USA. I am really sorry about it. I have come here to do my MS in Industrial and Management Systems Engineering. Most probably I will finish my course in 2 years. So getting back to the topic of Lincoln, the exciting thing about this place is my university. University of Nebraska - Lincoln. It is a very big university and has got great infrastructure to support its student.
I have to tell you about the Indians over here in USA. They are not the typical Indians which we are used to. They are completely different and very helpful. I have to stress the word HELPFUL. It is not just to praise them blindly but it’s the truth. Also one more important thing is that they have more patriotism than the ones back home. When it comes to religious part, once again these people beat the people back home. Today, it is VINAYAGA CHATHURTHI. I was really astonished to see the preparation made by people over here. The pooja went in a very professional way.
And do know what all they made for Prasatham??? Just check out the list… Puliyotharai, Kolkattai, Ven Pongal, Sakara Pongal, Sundal, Panjamirtham, Lemon Rice and some salads... These are the things which my mom makes during vinayaga chathurthi. One more important thing is that when it comes to cooking, the guys rock and beat the girls. They cook like a professionals and it tastes great. I am lucky to have such a room mate. Also I am learning a lot from him about cooking.
That’s all for now I guess, but soon I will write about my first bizarre trip to USA. And you could even call it a night mare. Ya, that’s how it was.
