Life Reloaded!!!

Like previous year, I participated in the half marathon (approx. 21kms) competition in Standard Chartered Mumbai Marathon 2014. I completed the race in 3 hours and 25 minutes. My friend Amit Prajapati from SEBI also accompanied me for most of the race and completed the race along side with me. From SEBI, total 59 officers completed half marathon whereas 4 even completed full marathon. Fortunately this time I didn't have much of problem with my legs post-race. I even didn't have much pain 2 days after the race day. So it was a normal race. Amit and Anuj Wait, this much summary is enough for my parents to know. Of course, my life has unexpected adventures even though I try to avoid them. So here goes the detailed story - As you might already know, I gave up my practice in last December. Even though I had recovered at the start of year, I was too lazy to restart my practice. It was obvious that I was going to face issues during the race. But I was confiden...

I know I am more than a year late in posting these photos, but I just received them today. Special thanks to Alpit Saxena from current AlumCom who made the efforts to get these photos from Academic section of NITIE.

I had bought book  Relativity : The Special and General Theory  written by Albert Einstein . As a kid, I always had a curiosity about the theory of relativity. I remember having discussions about time machines with my friends. So last year I decided to buy this book. In the preface to the book Einstein has mentioned that he wanted to explain the theory of relativity in as simple language as possible for lay man to understand. However, even though I have a bit of science background, it was very difficult for me to understand the book. After trying to “read” General Theory of relativity, I took a break of almost 10 months and then read the Special theory. As I we would call it in college slang – it was a “bouncer”.
