It was a pretty weird cum stupid day. After searching Atlanta information over internet whole night, and finally deciding to wander around the city and leave by 9:00 AM in the morning, i got up at 11:00. I cursed myself but that’s it. I guess, one can understand, how difficult it is to roam in a city which you don’t know and when you also don’t have a car. You cannot book a cab by asking cab driver to take you to any place and there seems to be no public transport (such poor country!), this is how I find it :- ), Atleast there should be some auto-rickshaws :- D

Anyhow, there was an embarassing cum exciting moment today. I was cooking the ‘parathas’ in my studio and it was first time, and i don’t know but somehow i over-cooked them and they got burnt and a lot of smoke filled my room. I opened the window, put the AC on full and also put the kitchen fan on full (actually, i didn’t do any of the three things, it’s just like i thought of saying people, if they ask me about this case :-P ), and i don’t know why but suddenly fire-alarm started ringing. I was sure that it was because of my room’s cooking smoke, i went out, told runnning people, not to panic, that everything is fine, but noone seemingly was believing my words, so i came back and contiued listening my songs. Suddenly, i listened fire-brigade alarm, OMG …. these people have called fire-briagde too. It was going crazy and i was embarassed that it’s because of me (though, you guys can see that there was none of my fault !, even Ami says that we should cook and should not eat frozen food ), these guys are taking all this pain. I went to front-desk, tried explaining the situation to receptionist and the main officer there but they wish to get confirmed themselves … OK fine … they came to the room, checked everything, AC was full, window was opened, kitchen fan was on, and re-assuring everything, they left.

I was embarassed at one hand, and plus i was feeling good at their attentiveness and their quick response. These guys come within 10 mins of fire-alarm ringing. It was impressive !!!

But the moral of the story: No cooking, especially parathas from now onwards :-)
