Few days in a week, I have started coming to Office in Bus. Getting into Volvo in Kundanahalli Gate Signal and travelling till Murugeshpalya Signal (Pizza Hut Corner) in Old Airport Road for Rs. 25/-.

Following are the advantages I am seeing in Bus Travel:

1. To and Fro is in Volvo, so comfort of AC is really good

2. Taking the seat in the back side of the Bus, so that from a little height, road and the surroundings are really good (you can see those only when you travel this way )

3. Getting down in the Old Airport Road and walking till the Office is a good 1.5 – 2 Kms walk (really good for Health and especially for Weight Reduction)

4. Hearing Music in the MP3 Player gifted by my Darling. It is a different experience to hear the Music in Home Theatre, in the Car and totally different when hearing in a MP3 player (It is as if Illayarajas and SPBs are singing directly into the Ears). Listening to music for around 1 hour in the Morning and Evening is an Amazing Experience.

5. Walking around 3-4 Kms additionally over and above my Exercise is helping in Weight Management

6. Very close to Challagatta (near the office) the traffic is really bad (because of some work by BWSSB) that in some days I walk and come little faster than a Car that is waiting in the Traffic!!!

7. It is economical (Rs. 50/- to and fro in AC Bus) and Healthy

So whenever I dont have meetings at 9:30, I am planning to come to Embassy Golf Link (EGL) from Kundanahalli Gate by Bus

Rate Card in Internet Cafe seems to be moving out of per hour into per GB. Saw this in Murugeshpalya in Bangalore

Today is a big day for me. I have dropped 10 Kgs in almost 8-9 Weeks. Though some more Kgs to be dropped, it is good to feel 10 Kgs down . This is purely through working out in the Gym for 1.5 hours a day + disciplined Diet.

People who know me for quite sometime know of the fact that 4 years back I was reducing weight. This time it is to drop the additional weight I have gained in the last 2-3 years . This is the last time I am reducing weight. Once I reach my Target, I will maintain it.

One interesting usage of English. As I was speaking to my Friend I said “I have lost 10 Kgs”. He corrected me saying, you have Dropped 10 Kgs. You can lose a pen or something else unintentionally and when you reduce weight, it is completely based on your personal decision and hence it is better to say  “I have dropped 10 Kgs” . Interesting to understand this. Thanks Arun.
