An evening at the Sankey...




The wind blew hard... the sky went all dull... the clouds closed in, darkening the evening sky... I was with Shiraz, my closest buddy since school, enjoying the serene beauty around the lake (Sankey Tank). I've come here before, but long ago when i was a small kid... we could fish then, and there was no path way like there is now... Now i see people, young n old, all around, some walking briskly, some strolling casually... its nice to see people actually enjoy the little nature thats left in Bangalore... though they dont do anything to keep it enjoyable for the future... its hard to imagine that people ignore the little responsibility of keeping the city clean and just indulge so much more in making it hard to keep it beautiful... i wonder why? hmmm.. well, these thoughts always pass my mind, everyday... anyways. Shiraz n me decided to sit around a corner and watch the lake as the lights from other side of the lake shimmered the surface so elegantly... and the evening sky, looked so perfect for a picture. and then i wondered... how many years more would we be able to enjoy this splendour?

Rangashankara....



mmmm.... another place i love to spend time at... "Rangashankara"... i so gladly accepted to go with my friend when he said he had some work at Jayanagar just because i wanted to go to this theatre... especially the cafe! i've always hated coffee day's and barista's which are so crowded, this place, is far different with its ethnic look (which actually my theatre friends contributed to..) and open cafe... i had been here long ago when it rained one evening and need i say anymore... i enjoyed sipping my "teefee" (its a combo of tea and coffee - tastes different and yumm!) while watching the rain lash outside...

a rainy night...




it heats up n it rains.. a city that cools itself down when the heat rises beyond acceptable.. i've not seen other cities which behave so much similarly.. just when we all complained about how hot (off-course by weather :P) bangalore was getting, it pours down so heavily that you cannot stop but enjoy the entire experience... the aroma of the freshly wet mud, the cool breeze.. mmm... jus wonderful.. :)
