And we rode through the highest motor-able road in the world !

Its not more than an year or so since I learned how to ride a bike properly , And I am not a pro yet ! But hey I already rode through the highest motor-able road in the entire world. Guess what more records I will have in my name two or three years down the line :P

We were eight techies ( still don't know what that means)  who were out for celebrating their vacation in the heaven on earth Kashmir So it was on the fifth day of our trip and we decided to make it bit more adventurous, We decide to ride from Leh to Nubra valley through the highest motorable road in the world  (yes you are going to read that phrase a hundred more times if you are planning to read it to the end :P). It is about 180 kilometres from Leh to Nubra valley and 

Everything happens for good

Driving bike through an empty road feels so good , that is why even after putting the indicator to take the left from where my house is just 200 meters or something I changed my decision and drove ahead , making the fellow road mates behind me go " HONK HONK ! "

Singing songs while riding bike has become more of a hobby for me , No no , that doesn't mean I can sing. I enjoy my songs , I enjoy my voice and I often wonder why people doesn't like me singing,  that was until I tried recording and hearing my own voice again ;) coming to the point , I was singing inside my helmet and the not so cool but kind of ok ok breeze was blowing into my t shirt which blew it like a baloon. Anyway  I couldn't enjoy the ride for so long , I was stopped  by a police van which happens here in trivandrum usually, I had all the documents ready with me but then It spoiled the mood.

The sub inspector should be a native of Trivandrum , Or else he might have spent a lot of time in Trivadnrum that his malayalam accent adapted.

Inspector : When did you buy this bike ?
Me:  Should have been at least six months .
Inspector  : Is this bike yours for sure?
Me : Why?
Inspector  : Because this bike was bought an year back and its insurance is expired !
Me : Oh ! God ! I might have forgotten to renew it ! Sorry ! and I easily loose track of time ! God !
Inspector  : That will be 500rs fine
Me : Yeah ! Yeah !

And yeah he starts writing the ticket ! He wrote a ticket for 100 and I paid him 500. Wait a minute ! Now that's not nice !

Me : Sir you have written the ticket for 100rs only
Inspector  : Oh! Sorry I was writing a lot of tickets for not wearing helmet
Me : oh!
Inspector  : Thanks son ! Otherwise it would have been a problem for me .
Me : No Problem sir.
Inspector : I could have written you a ticket for 100 , but then If I do like that you might take this lightly and wont pay the insurance on time. You know if in case some accident happens and somebody dies , You will have to pay a lot of money , In one such case the sum was as high as 14 crores.
Me : oh! god! I should pay this stuff asap then .
Inspector: Yeah better you do that!

I was done riding and headed back home, blaming my head for not heading right back to home and going for this spectacular RIDE. I took the turn to my home and I saw  a bike lying down , shattered glass and blood in the road , clearly some accident. And somebody from the crowd told me a bike hit this young boy who was playing and both of them are taken to hospital. Sigh!!

The thought that this could have happened to me if I would have taken the turn right away and then my insurance was also expired made my heart loose one or two beats,  hopefully this guy who got into the accident should have a valid third party insurance.

Some times you will have to believe and some times you clearly understands that everything happens for good.

Ruby Sparks

I am talking about this movie Ruby Sparks which I happened to watch today in star movies. The basic idea of the movie is that the hero who is a writer starts writing about his dream girl and one fine day boom! she is there in his apartment ! And the second best part is unlike other ghosts/imaginary girls / imaginary guys , this girl is visible to his friends relatives and everybody who is around and she is just normal. You might  be wondering what is the best part and the best part is She is Editable , yes literally !  The writer could just go to his typewriter just write something about this girl  "Ruby" and she changes accordingly.

Well I really don't want to talk about how good/bad the movie is right now, More than the movie what attracted me is the idea. The idea that one could just write something in type writer and change one' s mind, especially a girls mind,  WOW !!!! I would sell anything for getting that type writer.


I seriously think instead of spending such a lot of money in finding out what is going on in some other distant galaxy , all countries should decide and start working on this awesome new product. At least make those scientists do a feasibility study and that would be the next turning point for entire human race. I would compare that to the invention of a wheel or to the invention of fire!


Coming to the movie it has a good rating in IMDB as of  now but don't count on that , because it's just another below average movie , worth a try only if you are just really really job less.I would put the movie in the genre "Romantic Fiction".
