From Belgaum to Bikaner

We always come across with dilemma and especially when its about 4215 km or 80 hours journey.
June 6th marriage date and 13th june final semester exams. But sweets and fun were the secret temptation for me and i was dying to made my final move and that's what i had done. All stuffs taken and clothes were stinking like choke of garbage and for this i would thank #atul and #shubhang for showing tremendous effort in cleaning my clothes with washing powder Nirma. It costs 3 maggie and a bread packet which was bearable to me.So everything was set, only thing remained was ticket.
From Belgaum to Jodhpur it will cost 335 bucks and you all know what's the status of general class and for me it's not possible to cover such distance in sophisticated class.
After glancing all coaches i decided to sit on S-7, i don't know why but i did.Complete hustle bustle, unison of idli-vada,chai-chai and surprisingly i met a guy who was taller than 6 feet, short hairs with glittering eyes wearing cream color polo neck tee and red lower. Of course i spoke first word because desperately i was looking for seat and our conversation grew stronger and he offered me a cigarette. Finally he said-"Why don't you come in my seat" and i was waiting for this moment only. I said no sir, i would manage this was the manipulated part, it used to happen dear. Everything was set now, i opened my MEC book and began to read you know why. Somehow i managed morning journey by taking snapshots of different different station or tried to found any girl but this was the missing part for entire journey. Dusk was about to come and after taking consecutive coffee, tea, soup i was little bit tired so i decided to toke a nap.I woke up at 8 pm and after some time i started to feel hungry and soon after Kalangi exclaimed "Don't Purchase Dinner I've". I said ok and landed on lower birth and started to explore different food items, in short i could say "complete south indian food" which includes curd, chutney, jwar roti , bhaji and the most important one "RUM", what rum! yeah rum. After consuming everything Kalangi asked me to leave his seat and take bed sheet and sleep on the floor but this was out- of- the- box for me and i said ok you sleep, i'll manage somewhere. I  took a sneak peek at the gate and we were at Kalyan station. Randomly my conversation started with a man who hailed from Chennai and it lasted for 2 hours and he said i will not sleep as i have to charge my mobile, you can sleep on my seat. OH la la oh la la..... seriously this was the song i was reminiscing. I took a comfortable sleep and Kalangi deboarded at Ahemdabad station, where we exchanged our numbers. Remaining journey was around 12 hours more and the best part was crowd began to decline , so no seat issue. Somehow i crossed 6-7 hours but after that it was unbearable because i entered in the land of scorching heat "RAJASTHAN" . I want to tell you about my state or temperature but i don't  want that you also suffer from that state, so move on. In MARWAR junction i realized to change my coach because TC were moving like simple pendulum and i shifted to last coach i.e. S1. I think this was one of the best decision because in the very next station (LUNI) magistrate checking happened and i move to general class for a while. When all conditions were cool i again came back to S1 and my destination came i.e JODHPUR.

 I found jodhpur very regal and aristocratic which made me to shoot some pics, have a look.
My body was complete in sweat and i really need shower for that i moved to Railway waiting room where again i made some manipulations. 
It took 30 min. to get fresh after taking repetitive shower. My next train to Bikaner was at 8pm so i explored jodhpur liitle bit and purchased juti for my friend "Sandeep" and for me also. Someone suggested me to take lunch in Janta food restaurant when i was in S1 and believe me taste was scrumptious and mouthwatering too. A perfect place to remove your appetite. Must place to visit in jodhpur and lavish Lassi which will quench your thirst. After such moving journey i decided to meet TC for reserving my seat in AC class because 8 hour journey was remaining and sleeper was like hell that time. I took a nap after sometime i met a lady sitting in front of me. She was from Punjab and you can predict herself without giving introduction. Overall she was good and some circumstances happened which made me realized that she was helpful too. In front of her, army personnel was there. What will happen now, again my loop started and he was quite impressed. His name was Suresh posted in Jaisalmer as SM. I looked my watch, train was on right time and finally i landed on the lands of Bikaner. Oh i almost forgot he gifted his cap also "BRIGADE OF THE GUARDS"

The history of Universe

Well it's not easy to write first blog and especially on the topic which i have chosen. Till boyhood we have many subjects like Geography, Social Science etc and we often come across with many astronomical words like- universe, galaxy, meteor blah blah. But as soon as our primary education ends these terms also vanish from our dictionary. 
I was two beer down heading towards mysterious sky and perplex with many concepts like Big Bang, Moon, Satellite, Solar System. Deep into thoughts and recent Interstellar movie arouse my excitement and it reached to that extent i was having fourth bottle. I came down and opened my dilapidated laptop and browsed the giant google.com. And it goes in this way
Universe- It is define as totality of existence, including planets, stars, galaxies.
Big Bang is prevailing cosmological model that describes early development of universe which is believed to have occurred about 13.7 billion years ago and this data is consider as the age of universe.
Explanation- According to this theory, universe was once in an extremely hot and dense state which is expanded rapidly. This rapid expansion caused the universe to cool and resulted in its present expanding state.
Galaxy- A galaxy is a massive, gravitationally bound system consisting of star, stellar elements and dust. The word galaxy derived from Greek literally "milky", a reference to milky way.
Milky Way- is the galaxy that contain our system. The word milky is defined for its appearance in the sky.
Etymology- Zeus places his son born by a mortal woman (Alcmene), the infant Heracles, on Hera's breast while she is asleep so that baby will drink her divine milk and will thus become immortal. Hera wakes up while breast feeding and then realises she is nursing an unknown baby; she pushes the baby away & jet of her milk sprays the night sky, producing faint band of light known as milky way. Click to watch "Clash of Titans" for Zeus and Alcmene
Star- A star is massive, luminous sphere of plasma (certain portion of particle is ionised) held together by gravity. The nearest star to earth is sun.
Age- Most star are between 1 to 10 billion years old. Some are may close to 13.7 billion years old-observed age of universe. The oldest star yet discovered, HE1523-0901. Temperature in core region of star may be several millions.
Solar System- Consists of sun and its nine planets, their moons. It formed 4.6 billion years ago from collapse of giant molecular cloud.
"Earth & Planets move around the sun."
Moon- Natural satellite or secondary planet. Mercury and Venus have no moon while Earth have (as you know)
Satellite- is an object which has been placed into orbit by human endeavour. Such objects are sometimes called artificial satellites to distinguish from natural satellites such as moon which is explained before. The world's first artificial satellite is "Sputnik 1".
"History of Greek Mythology"-
 Zeus consider as father of gods & men. He is god of sky and thunder. He had five wives, first was moon. 
Theogony- Fifth wife of Zeus
Hera- Consort of Zeus, Queen of gods, goddess of marriage women &birth. She was one of 3 sister of Zeus.
Heracles- also known as Hercules, son of Zeus & Alcmene.
After this some of my doubts and confusion gone. I hope you gonna like it.
