santacruz station road

santacruz station road

08-11-231

i’ve decided to carry my camera along a bit more often, while im interning. it may help while away some time while stuck in traffic, especially in the evenings. the only hitch being that my point and shoot doesn’t really give great results while shooting at night. anyway, this is from the footbridge at santacruz station, looking to the west. here’s an earlier photo of the road leading to parle east station - all station roads appear familiar at the first glance. there was this first year visual studies project we had done, based on parle station road - i had taken up the well along the road, and many people who’d lived there all their life couldn’t remember ever noticing a well.

library in a rick

saw this rickshaw while stuck in traffic on juhu-versova link road. on the rear side of the driver’s seat was this stack of books, in hindi as well as english. haven’t seen any other rick like this before. i was wondering about the kind of books he would keep in here. i can’t make out any of the titles, except on; which reads: ’self evolution’. nothing like a quick read while stuck in the traffic, eh?

all packed

all packed

08-05-111

the last few weeks, and especially the last few days have been crazy, crazy as hell. apart from the technical vivas, we’re shifting houses, and are leaving for a long holiday. and it’s all got to happen at the same time. all our furniture moved out today…. i guess the realisation that we’re leaving our home for the past two decades hasn’t sunk in yet, either because there’s no time for it to sink in, or because we know that we’re going to be back on the same spot, in a few years…

truck loads of crap

truck loads of crap

as if moving houses, shoping and packing for the upcoming trip, and working for the vivas wasn’t enough; the attitudes, assumptions, callousness, behaviour, carelessness, and …. of a certain person have been annoying me to no end. and i’m so tired of it.

and the issue, as i see it, is going to drag on… but now i couldn’t care less, i’ve been as understanding as i could be, and as considerate as i should have been; beyond this i’m a scorpion, and i’ve been forced to sting…

running around…

running around...

did a lot of running around today. versova - juhu - cst - mahalakshmi - juhu - versova. and by good chance, the sim card guys are right next to the camera guy, and their building has a magnificent view of the race course. will try and click a photo of the racecourse some time…
