My new distraction

Do you ever get so into reading a book ,that you forget to do anything else? You simply don't want to do anything else??


I'm currently reading Maximum City: Bombay Lost and Found and I can't put it down!!! It's so damn addicting. All the underworld stories and personal experiences are extremely riveting. I'm only about half way into the book, but I'm really liking it so far. Have any of you read it? If not, I urge you to do so. Having only been to certain parts of Bombay on my family trips, I never saw nor experienced the many sides of this city so clearly written about in this book. It makes me want to take a trip back to Bombay now, just to see and feel and hear all the stuff that I apparently missed out or was completely ignorant of in my previous trips.

If nothing else, this book is turning out to be a Maximum (and a welcome) distraction indeed!

Our mission with the blog is not simply to express our thoughts as proud hyphenated Americans, but also to help us navigate through the real world, as we will be skimming the surface of adulthood for the next few years. Essentially, it is an open medium for our ideas, criticisms, feelings, thoughts, and opinions relating to our identities, our South Asian culture, our education, our careers, our future, our dreams, and the world around us. We invite you to join us in this journey, we like to call the twentysomething years and take part in our discussions.
