Buffalo Entourage - Canadian Embassy & Visa

After all my friend's parent(s) are coming from India so my friend also needed to get the Visa for visiting her extended family somewhere in Canada. So we left like at 9:15ish for Buffalo. Being geographically near to Buffalo, we could take our chances to leave this late. Given the fact that we did visit Buffalo last Friday as well and guess what we are late! Ha Ha! :) I know it is so funny.

New Blog series!

Swamp weapon is planning to present its readers with an inexplicable tour of the questions ( and its solutions from your perspective and our perspective, both) that have baffled human mind since ages and will continue to put mind’s strength at test.
This is a no brainer that you needn’t be psychology expert to experience questions in your mind. Being a firm believer of the supreme power, I can’t be more appreciative of any other fact in this world that when the supreme lord was creating human bodies, he gave all the super strength to this mind and not to the other parts of the body. Every human mind will continue to have questions and it just might be the case that the struggle just continues for ever for most of us. Only the lucky ones are able to see through this rigorous struggle and let go of our fears.


So what are these questions? Any thoughts/ideas for what might be the case for these?

Mega bus stop - service at East View mall, Victor, New York

Mega bus stop - service at East View mall, victor, New York

Interesting day out here. I had to go & drop a friend at the above said location for his travel to New York City ( NYC) using mega bus service. It was supposed to here by 2:05 PM and it is 2:30 PM and it is not here yet. Well, what can I say ? I know, I know you guys will say it's fine it's a bus service. But get have you traveled through grey hound before.
I agree It is crappy but most often than not you still get an update about how late the greyhound bus is and what's wrong with it. Unlike mega bus, you can expect yourself go be waiting at the bus stop for an hour and doing nothing except waiting. Oh boy! What a crappy bus service. And what is the added bonus, I had to wait with him for like 40 minutes. Man, this is awful.

Any views or any similar/different experiences? Care to share?

New horizons to discover!

It is weird of most people who can remember the quotation and it's respective author(s) with it, I however, cannot. So giving the credit to whosoever said the following line, I want to say Change is good.

Change is the only thing which is constant

After keeping my tabs open on how much I am going to be posting to this blog and what content stream I will be open to bring to this part of the blog, I think it is a constructive change to focus of this blog to soul searching and of course audience's viewpoint.

To this effect, I have decided to dedicate an entire blog to this effect. You can follow all the words and tools to remember the words on my new blog Remnant.I honestly want you all word readers and learners to visit this website and enjoy the word knowledge wealth at this blog from now. In a long term vision, I can see this blog being a part of my efforts to prepare for GMAT/GRE or general English vocab. I hope it helps the other hopefuls as well. Part of re-structuring!

Also I have another web link that I am pleased to share with you. I have finally made it to Word-press. Most people in my circle blog on both Blogger and Wordpress and after a popular demand by my friends, I have decided to open an input stream at Wordpress as well. It is called yours truely, Swampweapon. Similarly I have intentions to post my all struggles for Phd applications to be posted on this web link. In my opinion if you ask me, I can't stand a thought of indiscipline in the application process and I think we can work through the process by keeping track of what is going on right now. So for Phd resources, struggle stories, school rankings, and more similar stuff, stay connected to Swampweapon@wordpress

But wait there is some more news. As the last part of re-structuring my blog stream I intend to start another blog on Sufism in particular and religion in general. Yes you heard it right. Sufism. Modestly I am decent fan of Sufism, its music and literature. I am very fond of my religion and I would like to follow it with all my passion for ever. So instead of providing my mixed context content, it would be nicer to have simpler and content rich blog. What I haven't decided yet is that to have it host on Blogger or Wordpress. Till the time I decide, I am open for suggestions. So put your belt on and chime in.!


Peace till then!
