- My Dell lappy, it runs almost the whole day. Poor thingy
- CMU - Coffman Memorial Unit, happening place in UMN - TC campus. Had been to bowling alley inside CMU recently, and its really phun. (Thanks to GAPSA for pizzas and pop as well)
- Stone-arch bridge and Lake Calhoun
- Burittos from Chipotle are really yummmy
- Bombay Bistro - yo place for unlimited desi food! (Thanks to Vishnu for the treat there)
- Loring Pasta Bar - its a cool place. Should go there sometime with friends (Thanks to GAPSA again)
- Homeworks and Assignments - which pretty much fills the life of a grad student
- Dryer in our building. Troubled a lot by crashing down for almost a month
- Nolte, place where I work! I go there every day during the week. Know what I do there - I make sandwiches, salads, paninis and stuff. This time its poor me! But its phun, I get to know food habits of American people - various dressings, cheeses etc.
- Cubfoods, the place where we shop our groceries. Trip to this place is hell. Need to carry all the groceries back to home
- Papajohns pizzas! its been quite some time since I had a pizza from that place. Should have it soon
- I was away from home for the past 8 years (but was in India) and I used to call home atmost once a week. Now I video chat with all my family members atleast once a week.
- Erie Street - Thats where I lived for around 3 weeks when I just landed in US. And thats where majority of my friends live

@ sandy -
thanks mate
yes this is true even in my case .. In India when I was away from my home I used to call once in a week. Now in US I do voice chat daily .. video chats ofcourse very rare...
ReplyDeleteThe post would have been much more interesting with added pictures of the described places. Now If I run my imagination wilder than ever, Even still I could only think of an Indian workplace or bar when I think of these places.Cubfoods would display Nilgiris at max and Eerie Street of TNagar.Surely, It would be different I guess :)

ReplyDeleteits mostly the case. the more distance u r away from ur parents, the more you try to be in touch with them.
@ lavanya -
hmmm, cubfoods where i go is much much bigger than nilgiris and Erie street is much much smaller than Tnagar. Erie street is just a few meters in its length. i shud have added pictures, but i didn't have any when i wrote that post!
