Started studying for GMAT; targeting MBA from SNHU next spring.

Was the obvious choice for 31-Dec-2008, but instead decided to get local and celebrated at Boston First Night. Great experience, glad I did it!

Wanted to go to Boston this 4th July (2009), but instead spent a great morning at the 5K Sparkler run in Merrimack, watched the fireworks at Holman stadium in my town (Nashua).

The MOST difficult yet! Been a year out of work; nothing materializing. What am I doing wrong or not doing right ?

No plans yet; maybe in May-2010.

Aah, look at #8 :)

Possibly this December; 2009. Planning a trek in the GC; having gone that far would surely stay in Vegas for couple of days!

Didn’t expect it would be so tough! Offered to volunteer at the local library, but I guess they didn’t want me.
Went to the local COA, also got one call from them to help with the shopping for an old lady; but then got another call saying they had made alternate arrangements.

What am I doing wrong? Or not doing right? :(

Been writing quite regularly, if not exactly 1ce a month. Possibly it could be more frequently! Wow :)

Did a short road trip, 3 days in Aug-2007. Beautiful Route-66 across Arizona, Nevada and bits of California.

Pictures on Picasa!

Fun.. frolic.. masti.. scoldings.. crying.. tantrums.. everything.. and the pressure of work, moving to USA, money crunch.. and of course the countdown towards not being able to see them again for a long long time.

Wow.. I wonder hos Didi let them go for this long :-)

In Aug-2008; no cameras are allowed on the Walkway so no pictures. But it was awesome. You have to take the bus and go through the entire circuit of the Western rim.

At the end of the day I had my first chopper ride as we flew over the Grand Canyon and landed on the floor of the canyon and rode in the waters of the Colorado. Can it get any more surreal?

At least not for now :)

..and if don’t manage to do it I want my ashes to be taken there :-)
Else I’ll haunt the place for eternity :) :)
