Namma maneya putta kaithota...

Yes.... I have started one of my favorite hobby Gardening from this month...

I always had the dream of having a garden of my own and growing plants and spending my leisure time in there. After so many discussions along with my family members, I got few yards in our parking area to start my Gardening. I had asked the contractor to leave that without filling any mud.

I might be having  around 10 x 3 area left for gardening.. and the depth around 2 feet. I asked few of the nearby nursery to start with as the amount of mud to be filled was more, I dont wanted to take any chances. The red soil costed around Rs.50 per each cement bag and the organic fertilizer Rs.120.
We needed around 80 cement bags  to fill that area. It was almost equivalent to one tractor load....:-)

The initial investment is bit high. But according to that Gardener (He was J.P Nagar 2nd Phase), we dont have worry about the soil and the fertilizer for the next 5 years it seems. So for me it costed around Rs.8000 including soil, fertilizers, plants (3 hibiscus, 5 Rose, 2 Sevanthi, 1 Nimbu and 1 Curry leaves) and Medicines (Neem powder and Rose Powder).
If you dont have ground space then you can always grow plants in pots... Grow plants and it will automatically grows your inner happiness....these words are coming from my experience. Try it out and see.

Planning to have few more plants in the coming days and will upload pics when the flowers bloom in them.

Unity In Diversity

I chose this name to my post because most of us do remember reading this in our text books during school days. This is what our teachers used to preach everyday in school and we did believe that and felt good about our nation. As we grew up and started to understand what is happening around us, its natural to ask ourselves do we really have unity in diversity. Ok friends, by now you might have hinted what am i trying to write here... yes you guessed it right. Its all about the controversy we are hearing in news "Marathi Vs Hindi" ... Is language dividing Indians, instead of uniting us ??? Do we really need this kind of controversies ?? I personally feel what ever statement Mrs.Bachchans made in public might have hurt Marathi people but then she didn't speak in some language which they don't understand like Latin, Arabic or Malayalam. She spoke in 'Hindi' which is considered as our national language. I feel there was no need for Mr.Raj Thackeray to make a big i...

Right Decision @ Wrong Time !!!!

Making right decision at the right time..... many of us might have heard this phrase plenty of time in our lives. But how many of us has made that right decision in our lives which we are proud of anytime ??? And how many of us thought that we made right decision but later realised 'at a wrong time' ??? If i just look back then until my 12th grade, my parents were making all the major decision for me.... no burden on my shoulder... :) wow life was so beautiful at that time!!!! The first right decision i made was opting for BE instead of Bsc or BCA. For some reason i made up my mind to go for engineering even if i have to stay in hostel... My second right decision was in selecting engineering college. During my first CET council the options i had was JCE, Hassan engg college(forgot the actual name of the college), PCET Mandya and SIT Tumkur. I opted for SIT though i had no idea about that college.... i selected because of the branch Instrumentation and Electronics engg again i h...
