The week that was in Delhi-Series lll (Back to school)



Back to School in Delhi........ not my school silly my sister's school in Delhi, one of the oldest Missionary schools in Delhi, started in 1908 ....gawd its older then any of the educational institutes I studied. " Queen Mary's School" located in Tis Hazari, very close to the ISBT. Last time I was in Delhi I couldn't meet her as I had to return from the gate (thanks to che for not submitting the application). This time I went personally at 7 in the morning to drop the application and thank gawd I got the permission to meet my sis. The school is nice, not very crowded with students in each class, clean, very old building and yeah the red bricks like DU colleges and my previous college.
Going to any school makes me happy, I remember my school days and miss every moment of it. The huge football and all games ground, the horrible school canteen, the not so great class rooms, assembly ground and my frens, I guess my school was one of the best place to study in Manipur. I haven't been to my school since many years...sala time he nahi milta jab bhi ghar jaati hun, ish baar ghar gaye toh jaruur jaoungi.....amen to that

The week that was in Delhi-Series II




During my visit to Delhi we also visited the 27th Indian Handicraft and Gift Fare at Noida, I was visiting IHGF for the 1st time and it was an eye opener. What was more intresting about the fare was it was meant only was buyers from abroad, the products and the way the products in each of the stalls were displayed were just too eye catching and I understand where we stand now. Exports does generate alot of revenue but it involves alot of hardwork, networking, knowledge and confidence, I learned India and China are one of the major sourcing countries in the world that was sure a good piece of information. Most products and companies with stall at IHGF sure knows how to packedge their productsand sell, some of the stall were displayed so well and the collection!!!! too good. I liked one stall which had put bags, I just fell in love with their collection. The prints were very eye catching and quality...too good. From silver jewellery to scarves, home furnishing, furnitures, home deco, women accessories the collection on diplay was amazingly beautiful. It was sure a nice experience and an eye opener to visit the fare.

The week that was in delhi-Series 1


Roasted sweet potatos and momo's two of my all time fav items, I never miss having these two items whenever I am in delhi. I went to sarojini nagar market to do some shopping (some shopping!!!!!!!thats under statement lol) and I ended up eating alot of roasted sweet potato's mixed with masala and loads of chicken momo's. The best thing which has happend in Delhi in the past one or two yrs is momo's become the ultimate street food in delhi, you'll find it everywhere. At Kamala Nagar I saw it in every possible food stalls price ranging from Rs 40 to Rs 70, at Sarojini nagar it was much cheaper Rs 30 for full plate and it has abt 12 momo's and despite my great appetite I couldn't finish it.Sarojini Nagar market is good not only for shopping but now for food as well.
