What a decade !
So best nine won’t do justice to a decade especially if so much happened in my decade - here is walk down the memory lane.
.
Studied Finance in Chennai. Lived at a a co-Ed hostel. Watched Konkana, Ranveer Sheorey , Vinay Pathak on stage at the TTK auditorium performing the Blue Mug
Basundi at Murugan Idli Besant Beach , drive along OMR road with friends, late night Maggie at hostel canteen, city tour in matchbox sized share autos with the first and perhaps the only person that crazy about me .
.
.
Went to Kaya Skin Clinic for the first time - because nothing else would work for that tan.
Their refreshing welcome drink ! .
Watched Avatar with friends who came down from Bangalore in Sathyam Cinemas . Idlis at Karpagambal Mess, so many visits to Kapaleeshwar Temple with friends and family mainly for mythology and Prasad.
.
Got the best entry at investment banking one could hope for !
Explore Hyderabad like a tourist, visiting all museums and temples not just once but many times! Brother and mother visit :)

Love at first sight with the Japanese section in the British Museum because of Samurai, Katana swords and Block prints and illustrations .

wishing Hanuman happy birthday on Hanuman Jayanti at legendary Karmanghat temple, buying pearl jewellery for sisters wedding - nostalgia!
.
Oh discover Meher Baba and climb up the hill in Khoja Guda where he sat for 40 days in a cave and Manonash happened.
Work long hours. Recession strikes. Colleagues move to US.
