The library is my favorite place and I can spend hours running through shelves exploring books and then, sit in silence to enjoy the ones I would pick. Unfortunately, my city does not have many libraries. The Town Hall library used to be the largest in the city but it was going to shut down and when I heard the news that they were going to close it and use the space to build an exhibition hall, I was disheartened. The library was two hours away from my place and yet, twice a week, I would go there to enjoy a whole day with myself. I loved...

27 days continuously, I have been carrying an umbrella. Just this one day when I had to go for a meeting in which I was supposed to be a presenter, I forgot the umbrella and guess what even the weather forecast guys assured me of the SUNSHINE! Yes, that is what they said in the news so I was relaxed but the moment I stepped out of the crowded local train at Bandra station, it started pouring really heavy, even heavier than cats and dogs. That is how Mumbai rains are. It either doesn't rain for days or it rains like a predictable flood and...
