Today morning I got to learn a few things from Hemant. Let me tell you, I am a very good listener. :)

He told me about a couple of fundas related to jogging. First, stretching is a vital component. It should be evenly distributed into two periods - before the actual jogging and after the jogging. And its duration should be equal to the jogging time! It does keep the body pain away and helps in proper exercise of the muscles. I do the stretching after the jogging but never bothered about the warm-up. Now, I have to. Secondly, the speed factor. Normally, it is maximum in initially and decreases till we are exhausted. But, it should increase gradually from the first to the third quarter to reach a maximum and then it should be slowed down in the last quarter. It helps the body in maintaining the rhythm.

He told me that he jogs in the evening nowadays. Its a good idea for the dudes like me who can do anything but wakeup in the morning and go for jogging. Lemme try it out.

It all came from the stuff that one of his brother's friend is in IAF, posted in Siachen. Our (one way) discussion went into the conditions in Siachen - low temperature leading to freezing of the weapons, and food. I remember when I have been in the lowest temperature - @ around 5 in the morning on 2nd dec 2007 in Ranchi. I salute the soldiers posted in the 'live freezers'.

Today is Rakshabandhan. Wish you all (not all exactly) happy rakshabandhan.

Yesterday while going back from the office, I saw a dog waiting outside the book binding shop, opposite to our street. He was looking at the closed door and the name plate above it in such a way as an elderly person thinks -" Now, what should I do. There's only this shop around and I have to get this book binded tonight. I am dead!" Ha ha ha ha ha... So, cute....

Yesterday night, me and Abhishek discussed about the Freida Pinto debacle. She betrayed her fiance Rohan Antao, for a comparatively 'famous and rich' Dev Patel. We tried to discuss in the point of view of the three involved. As expected, since we were of different views, no result came in the end. The incident just proved yet again that its impossible to understand girls. Infact, from this incident we may conclude that they can always leave you if they get a better option.
