Being tempted by an evil spirit, I finally started looking for a car. You may ask “Do you even have an Indian driver’s license?” Nope! So I started going to a driving school to get an Indian driver’s license at the same time. I never had the idea of driving a car in Bombay before. [ READ MORE ]

Failed New Year Resolution

2009 is getting over, but I don’t feel like it at all. The city of Mumbai is still filled with Christmas decorations and people in the Santa Clause hats. Some people in the office are taking off for the New Year’s days, but I am working, and people who I work with are working, even [ READ MORE ]
