The Hindu : Cities / Chennai : Rally to create awareness of blood donation

The Hindu : Cities / Chennai : Rally to create awareness of blood donation

Worth of a Life

Yday I had noticed a incident of passenger illtreat by MTC. Passenger was supposedly climbing into the bus when bus started rolling and passenger fell down. Bus stopped and finally he got into. Then Passenger and Conductor had some quarrel. Don't know whose fault it was but I should say life is worth and bus drivers should understand that. They should atleast wait for 30-40 seconds in a stop depending on the crowd. Also, passengers are to be blamed at times when they try to get into a bus which is already filled. They dont have patience to wait for the next bus. Anyways life is pretty costly and if u lose that you cant get back.

Back from Boston & New library complex in Chennai

I am back from Boston bfr one week. It was nice stay at Boston and place is good. I did miss India and when I got to know that I should go to India earlier Labor day week, I was awaiting when Friday will come. 3 weeks stay I had learnt to cook. Back in India, I just came to new library complex [Anna Centenary library] has been setup & came through an article in "Pudhiya Thalaimurai" and got excited that the library will be first of its kind in India fully equipped with modern technologies. Really interested to visit the library.

In Boston

Have come to Boston on a short visit [40 days] on Aug 21. Its been a week now here and quite enjoyed the weather here during first 4 days. It was raining all the day continuously for 4 days. Now the temperature is normal from 25 degree celsius to 33 degree celsius. Went to Walmart and an Indian grocery store last Saturday [alone :)] and bought some groceries and food stuffs. As I dont have any neither friends nor colleagues here, don't find ways to roam around. Infrastructure, Transportation & in few other terms USA is better than India is a fact that has to be accepted. But, there is something missing here. Not able to express that, but I am missing my lovely India and Chennai too. Will come to Chennai by the start of october. Will post things that are happening here.
