A new place, some new goals and an awesome life…..!

It’s been over three days since I landed in the city of gardens so I guess I am a little late in posting this, but first no internet and then no time meant that I just could not post this one earlier. Landed in Bengaluru on 8th July to live in what is popularly known as the biggest IT hub in the country, and trust me, it’s not far from the truth. The first glimpse of city not only confirms this, but also raises the expectations. A mesmerizing structure of tall buildings right in front of you and you just cannot miss the beauty! It surely won’t be an overstatement to call it world-class. The whole city is well maintained and the people are courteous. The only con associated with Bengaluru is that it is developed in such a manner that two places are far far away from the each other, and I had to travel a good part of 30 Kms to reach my destination, BMT – where i am going to stay for next three years. Travel from the the station is not a problem however; AC Volvo coaches run to and fro 24X7 and cover just about the entire city. Tried connecting to the internet on the way only to realize that I lost my old mobile so its no more with me and i wasn’t able to connect to the whole world ( internet ) in Bangalore! Super-irritated, I just passed time talking to fellow passengers. On reaching the PG (paying guest room), found out that the arrangements were way below my expectations, but somehow today morning i found out a 2BHK flat, which is in the center of where all north people and and the apartment is way more than my expectations. I was extremely pleased after seeing the apartment, we need to furnish it but all the facilities around the apartment is out standing.
Btw I was so much indulged in the city that i forgot to tell that why i came here, I’ve joined Alliance school of management for pursing BBM for my graduation. I would be spending the most important part of my life, the next three year here in Bangalore.
Back to track, the taxiwalas here are very unpredictable. Every other taxiwala has his own version of a random number generating software and comes out with a very different and outrageous figure for the same destination. My love for the number 7 never subsides and I somehow managed to get a BIL flash card displaying the number 7 
.
The best thing about Bengaluru is the weather: one, it’s not very hot in here; two, it rains just about every other day here and gives me a chance to step out in the rain and enjoy the awesomest of all feelings. The best part of the week was when some I decided not to eat the normal indian food and rather step out in the rain and eat at the outlet instead! Ended up visiting A to B, had good masala dose, with a lot of butter followed by starters, along with redefined low service quality levels and STILL had a great time with my old-found friends!!
I’ll be discovering a lot things in the upcoming days, bengaluru walo main aa gaya hoon !
