**Photo credit to my cousin Karishma: Best.Card.Ever!!** I think I’ve made it pretty clear on my blog that running is one of my favorite forms of exercise. Everytime I take off my trainers, I want to bottle up that feeling of achievement and endorphins. As much as I love the sport, here are some factoids …
One person’s birthday which I will ALWAYS remember is Michael Jackson’s. Not only because he was a legend but also because it falls on the same day as my brother Anand’s: August 29th! Happy birthday to the guy who… Watches countless reruns of Seinfield and still laughs like he’s watching the episode for the first …
