50mm ♥

So my dearest brothers gifted me a 50mm lens on my birthday. I was in heaven. I felt like this cool photographer type, second lens and all, actually third. It was so nice and shiny. I'd take camera accessories over diamonds any day. So I finally got down to using it a bit. I can't wait to take some more shots.

 Hai. Sigh kar karke thak gayi hoon.

Cubbon Park

Bangalore is the city of parks. Having lived here for almost two years now, it is quite a shame that I haven't visited most of them as yet. Lalbagh happened once just a few months ago and in a bit if a hurry. As a result, I was quite excited to visit Cubbon Park last Sunday morning. It was quite an impromptu plan, which changed from Nandi Hills to Cubbon Park due to the lack of bikes.

It so happened that we slept at 5 am and still managed to get up at 7, though it was two hours later than the original departure time. I even had a bath with cold water just to drive the sleep away. It was quite a chilly morning. Sadly I did not have my camera with me, but that means that I have to go there once again. Instead I took along a diary and sketched away for a change. I did borrow a friend's camera to click a few shots. The place was so pretty and serene I couldn't resist.

Cassis

Meaning - black currant. Yep, I tried a flavored beer and it was quite nice. Tasted like a mix between light beer and a breezer. My beer run is soon coming to an end and I will be back to my old monk and coke :)

Farewell

We recently had our farewell party here at school. I can't believe it's already been 4 months since I'm here and it's already time to go back. Actually I go back and forth between thinking it has been too long, and that oh I just came yesterday. Funny.

Sometimes it is hard to believe that you have actually lived a dream. 

It's been so long. The colors have also changed. Sigh. 

Beer diaries 4

So after a really hectic week, I decided it was time to continue my tryst with new beer and I went down to the market to get myself some new bottles. 

Today I tried another Belgian beer. They sure do make a lot of beer out there ! This one was wheat beer - interesting is what I'd say. It tasted quite different from the ones I've tried before. And pretty light too. 

I opened the bottle with my teeth again :D 

It snowed :)

The town I live in get only rain. Rain, rain and some more rain. So when it snows, it really is a BIG deal. I missed the actual snow fall but at least I got snow :) I wished and wished for it to snow, and snow it did. Everything was white and pretty. 

Since I didn't get out of my room till much later, I made some snowmen on my window sill :) It was fun. I was super excited. 

Snow is beautiful. Except when you have to walk on slippery, icy roads. All I could think of was to try and get to the tram without slipping and falling on my bum. But it was beautiful. Just a day of snow, and I enjoyed it.

Illustration night

Listening to songs and illustrating lyrics. What fun !
