Jabalpur Visit

Sorry for not updating my blog for last few days as I was out of Indore. I shall update you on my two week Jabalpur’s visit very soon.

Oh My God!

Yes…Oh My God! were the words that came out of my mouth when my mother informed me that Michael Jackson has died.

Michael Jackson….you can never leave our heart and your voice will live forever.

A true performer and outstanding entertainer has gone. I still remember my first ever English music album (Bad) that I had bought and listened to till the life of the cassette. MJ’s music has always been so inspiring for every moment and every situation. It was MJ who kicked me in the sea of Pop music and created so interest that I bought almost all his albums available.

I am shocked and feeling great sadness for the fact of loosing such an exceptional artist.

T-20 Matches

For the last one week Indore Cricket Association was busy hosting 20-20 cricket matches at Usha Raje Cricket Stadium. This recently built stadium hosted its very first One-Day International match in November last year. But all the matches of this 20-20 were to be played day-night under its newly installed flood lights.  

Teams from all over the State were invited and yesterday was the final match between Indore and Rewa.  Though it felt so bad because Indore lost the match but still I enjoyed the entire match on television. As, I had also tried my luck in cricket sometimes back, many of my friends were also playing in the match. It was very exciting to see them on T.V.

Having my residence very close to the stadium, I could hear the ecstatic crowd on every shot or wicket. Just to share the excitement with you all,  I have clicked a few photographs of the stadium which I would love to share with you.

   

Working with Idiots?

Now, here it’s a very interesting study being conducted by the Medical Centre of Lindbergh University at Sweden which says that working with idiots can be very dangerous and might even kill you. The results are based on a survey conducted on over 500 heart attack patients. The author of the study is Dr. Dagmar Andersson. Read the entire article below. Very interesting.
