Hey, I recently took one training in order to enter into john D. Dingell VA Medical center in order to help my professor.

The training was "Rodent Surgery Training" and in this each of us had to first time try to make small incisions and than stitch the body of anesthetized rat by 3 different techniques..

1. Simple stitching using thread and curved needle
2. Stitching using special small gadget like stapler
3. Filling a small incision with bio compatible glue

It was quite good to learn that it is very difficult to handle a situation when someone's life is dependent on what you are doing..

I was not that much good in maintaining sterility and was often told to take necessary precautions otherwise I think I performed quite nice stitching.

But It did not matter at that time as all the rats were to be euthanised finally after the stitching procedures by bilateral pneumothorax procedure(by exposing lungs to outside air)

It quite often seems to me that is it justified to use such large no of animals???

But it is really necessary to help themselves and definitely the "mankind"

To afford each time to go to differnt places is quite not possible at least due to tight schedules...

I explored a "virtual reality site" that offers us to live in virtual world...


Only you have to download software and register..Beware that you do not type ur true name but only any name...

At least some of us can meet together there and chat ...

Leave your reply if you want to flock together we can decide some timing that can be convenient for all of us...

I found out one good site that is having a huge collection of free magazines....

Each month many people upload magazines and you have to only login and read them....

So,here you "go........."

So,Here I am....

Alone in Unites states...

I landed in united states just before my college was to start...

I studied for around 1/2 year in Masters in Quality Assurance/Regulatory Affairs at Temple university...


I quite often wonder that why I entered into that field...But the reason I found was I as not having any good choices than that one,as the university is highly reputed in its pharmacy courses...

There was a thunderstorm of experiences waiting for me to exhaust me...(Though this exhaution prove good for me)

I felt shock initially as it was quite difficult situation as there were many things making me uncomfortable....cold weather,some nostalgia and some broken relations...

I only found out after coming to philadelphia that the campus where I had to attend classes was 45 miles away !!!!!

I found a room mate whom I would say the first weird creature i observed here.

I was like a elder brother to him but you can not expect the same thing from opposite side..

And He though I consider was immature but had been unfair to me...As I had quite nostalgia developed due to him..

Also I found it quite difficult to stay with him as it was quite costly for me to afford.

So,I changed my first home only in 2 months....

The new house where I started living was 2 bedroom and 6 people sharing it !!!!

So,I got a good experience of adjusting with other unlikely persons...

But It was quite difficult for me to get acclamatize to that house and it took almost 1 month..

I fell into the most nervous emotional blunder during that 1 month....The special nervous month

I found a new friend during that time(Though not a friend in any sense)

That is always the case that sometimes when you are emotionally disturbed someone can easily fool you...

So,The new friend was the second weird charecter I was to observe here..

I was not able to judge him ever till it was too late for me..

It is due to his random behaviours such that I did not expect from him....

So,here friends there are such dangerous persons that are impossible to be judged because they have very aberrant behaviour.....trust me they are the most horrible to make relations with...

So,I found that he was helpful to me and I did not understand that always while he was helping me there were dollars snatched from my pocket for doing small or big favours to him...

So,I could not identify a special "camouflaging person without color change" and I lent him some money and finally got the money after the relations broke to its end point...

Also during the same time I observed a group of friend that I think I lost due to my naive nature to tell truth and to help everyone...

So,this month was full of emotional blunders for me...

It was good fortune for me that only after 20 days of my settling in philly,I got a quite good job in school of pharmacy as research assistant in medicinal chemistry...

So that I had no time to go deeply into emotions.....

I was searching for a good site that can keep my financial information and also can help me track and make important changes to my spending....

I found out awesome financial planning site...


This includes all your accounts and you have to only first time add your account of bank and credit card account than whenever you login,it updates itself.

You must be wondering about security.......

But according to the owner of website it is having the same third party agreement and the site itself is not storing ant data (that is most likely for all the banks also).....

So,here is the site for "good financial budgeting"

Hey friends,

This is amazing interactive experimentation to know the effects of various abused drugs on brain

So,this is the first post on my blog....

I will start by introducing myself a little...

I am pharmacist by profession and obtained my bachelor's degree from Anand Pharmacy College,Anand,India and now I would be pursuing my Ph.D. in Pharmacology at wayne state university,detroit,MI.

Though I must say that the experience I got is after my B.pharm. that can be called "experience to live life.

I am late almost 1 year than all my contemporary friends of college but I think that the 1 year might suffice me to live my life in quite different directions than all of them.

I am coming from middle class family with somewhat restrained thoughts and I also have become quite similar like my family.

I had to wait for around a year to finally reach my true destination that I loved in my college years...that is "Pharmacology".

I have just shifted to detroit almost a year after I finished(better to write completed) my bachelors education.

I only would mention my journey to reach detroit in a year after my graduation...:)

Actually I decided to come to united states only after I failed to succeed in one of the qualifier's exam in India that I took in third year of my college.

As I failed to even pass the exam I thought it would be better for me to go somewhere where there would be easy admission process and challenging opportunities in life..

I decided that I would not again try to pass the qualifier's exam but would try to take GRE and score the best possible from my side to go into a good university in united states..

I was sucessful in achieving my dreams and got quite good score to get into quite good university..

But what I should say either my family's conservative nature or my lazyness came in between my dreams and I had to delay my dream to come to US.

I passed my year that I will say "The most important year of experience in every sense" doing job for around 3-4 months and than studying into a field that I considered was appropriate to achieve good wealth in short time.

Hey,don't take it wrong...But the experiences I got during the year were enough for me that I can say that they would help me a lot to prevent myself falling into any obfuscation due to lack of experiences in life.

As I mentioned earlier that I spent around a year before I reach my dreamed destiny was a year of opportunities to learn lessons and now I would elaborate it.

I spent 1/2 of my year in India doing job as Product chemist in one pharmaceutical contract manufacturing company in India and another 1/2 year as a student in one of the prestigious universities' executive programme and as a research assistant in medicinal chemistry lab in Philadelphia,United states.

It is quite important especially for Indian students to get some experience of industry before pursuing education abroad.

As the students in India are quite immature than those who are in united states,it is quite important to get some training in similar field you would like to enter...

It was,is and will always be my primary dream to own a company small or big but quite efficient and providing people or say society their needs at their affordable price at the same time getting money to develop the company further or to invest the money in potential financial markets in India.

So,to start my experience....

My father told me that you have sufficient time to sharpen some of your skills and to remain active in your own field before going to united states.

I decided to start some job at least for some short period of time.I applied for several and got one in nearby cities of my hometown..

That was the starting of my lucid dream...

I was working in a Small Volume Parenterals plant (that produces eye and ear drops) as a production chemist but it did not matter to me at all because I was interested in understanding how these companies are handled to produce such a huge quantities of products as to cope up with their demand.

It was really an eye opening experience that the claims about the sterility and accuracy of dosage in drug was breathtakingly fraudulent sometimes .

I must mention that the plant in which I worked was running 24*7 ,so there were times when I was the alone person to handle all the employees in the whole plant.This was awesome experience for me that helped me in visualising that it is not quite easy as I was thinking to handle a huge no. of workers and together with it run a continuously expanding business.

Also I got a good overview of how the whole system was being handled,what were the
loopholes and how to tackle with some stubborn people.

I also got quite confident that girls were quite productive in group than boys...

I was quite naive till I joined my job because I think I was living with quite similar people like me till than.

But in my job I encountered some people that were the epitome in some filthy fields.

It is said that you do not consider yourself important until you find out that there are quite different people in existense that you have to take care of.

Also I must mention that I found very rare but quite effective people during my job.

I liked totally three people in my job period the most..one was the owner of the company and the other two were my bosses in the plant.

They were quite effective in their speech and the goals they wanted to achieve.

Always helpful and careful but strict at the same time..

I think I lacked these qualities because I quite often feared about little things and due to that I was not able to execute the all necessary requirements to achieve my goal .

But the final thing I would like to mention is that the attitude is all that matters and not the loyality to the profession finally.

I became resolute to leave my job as it was quite tiresome because I had to change shifts and together with it I was also preparing to go(rather than come...) to united states.

It was the last day of my favourite festival when I had to do double shift and I would have to do the third shift also because none of my relievers were ready to come and relieve me from my duty...

I should mention that the double shifts that I did was not at all to be paid to me because I was resigning without prior notice...

So,don't trust your co-workers always because they often prove backstabbers that always like to maintain good relation in front of you but behind you...... I hope you can understand..

At airport with the persons who played quite important role in my life and will be playing


There was a time when I did not care about what I had but as I did my college while staying away from my hometown,I became aware of it.

I left my job almost 3 months before coming to united states...

I must mention that it was my laziness only that delayed my studies somewhat...

I have observed that I am very careless person at least in maintaining some good and important realtionships...

I had no idea that I was about to depart from my country and the people without whom it would be quite difficult to live life..

I was totally entangled in managing the documents required to apply for different universities and than in shopping for myself to live alone...

I can tell you that no one loves you greater than your mummy...

She was always thinking which things I had to carry with me.

She made me cook many things as I am jain and was always willing to follow some restrictions of my religion..

while mummy is most loving, father is most important to guide you to the path you have destined for..

I am thankful and would always be obligated to god that I got such a nice family...

My father always helped me develop new skills and also taught me some very important lessons on how to run a good financial business.

Though I don't like my father's attitude to give importance much more to business than family but I think that is and would be the same problem always...

So,there was I thinking of about to leave from my country..... but was not quite careful for many other persons that were playing very important roles in my life...

But the time was to depart from India and to fly to United States--really the land of opportunities...but emotionless.........


Feed 1 : Hey, this is a must see episode of scrubs to remind how your parents care for you

This I think was one of big mistakes of my life..........

The persons who care about you the most must get the credit for that and you must be the person to give them the credit........

I am still not clear that whether I was arrogant or informal but I must advocate that I did not thank any of the persons who helped my life blossom like a flower before I left from India.

That is the thing that I realised after coming in united states...

It is very good when you receive complements from someone,isn't it ???

I felt the thing after coming here that you have to express what you feel and not only think that it is tacitly understood.

I am sorry for all the persons whom I not expressed my regards for making my life beautiful with their contribution as different roles...

So,first of all I would mention my best friend......"Vishal".

Our friendship is like a stubborn person that is impossible to be changed....

But I think I was not that much expressive to him because of his own nature...

I and he had some great days and moments of life that are impossible to be forgotten.

But I can not tell him good listener because it is not his nature...So we are best friends but still not expressive to each other that much.

All things apart,He was,is and always will be ready to confront any difficult situation where I think I will not be able to handle all along.

So,this is to express to him that sorry for not thanking you that "It is greatest pleasure to be your friend".



Now,My family angel cute,little sister....."Shivani"

Can you believe that my sister is 12 years younger than me????

Yes,She is studying in 6th grade and she entered into 1st grade while I started my college...

The circumstances are such that I was not able to remain close to her as I was studying in different town than my hoetown and was visiting my home at intervals of about 2-3 weeks..

And the small 1/2 year duration before coming to united states is the most unforgettable time I spent with my little sister...

She has got quite smart by now...She is able to get online which my father found quite difficult for sometime.

Also she is highly interested in all curricular activities except for studying..

I firmly believe that she would be establishing a good reputation as an artist in future....

I am quite lucky in this case that I was able to express all my feelings and responsibilities to her before departing....

But this is for you my sister..."You are like daughter to me and I will always be there for you but sorry that I have to stay away from you for pursuing my dreams"....

But you are brave enough and will definitely achieve your goal in life....


So,These are my two best friends together.....

But I am not in the picture ?????

Because without them I might not be in a "true existence"....

Yes,it is cent percent true...I am quite laconic and people consider it as my arrogance....

So,I make friends with very few people...But once I enter the relationship,I am quite comfortable with them.

I first knew "Iva" in first year of my college life....as I was the last in my batch and had no computer to spare...So I had to share it with Iva.

I liked her nature during our initial encounters but was not able to make her my friend(I had to ask her for a hide & seek biscuit that was considered for friendship in first year and then she gave it to me..ha ha haaaaaa)

So,I became her friend by our common friend "Ketan Patel".

We shared a quite good time with each other and became best friends in sometime.

I did not know Nirali till the second year of college at all...(She is "small" to be noticed and quite laconic sweet friend)

I became her friend I think in end of second year....

But the turn was that I got quite close to her and away from Iva...

So it is like "friendship triangle"...Iva wants nirali...nirali is common friend...I want Nirali..

This was problem sometime ...but we had a great days together....Unforgettabl really....

So,there was a group of us almost 6 people together..


Me,Ketan,Darshan,Kashish,Iva,Nirali....

Small but very happy group wandering around together and enjoying the great days of life.....together........

This is for all of my group persons...."I miss you and always will in moments of joy in my life,I want it insatiably to meet once again all of us in our college campus"..
