With Ola acquiring TaxiForSure for $200 million, it would be interesting to see Uber’s next step to deepen its reach amongst Indians. Anyway, until there is competition between these cab aggregators, it’s better for customers and drivers since customers are getting deep discounts and drivers are getting paid better. Moreover drivers are getting extra rewards for logging in over 10 hours a day from Ola and Uber to retain them. I took cabs from both Uber and Ola during February and came to know about things from both customer’s and driver’s perspective. Drivers are more inclined to Uber since they are burning cash excessively. The Ola driver I took a ride with had a Micromax phone while the Uber driver had an iPhone. Following is my experience and review of Uber and Ola in India : Experience with Ola in India Ola has 3 types of cabs – Mini, Sedan and Prime. Mini is cheapest while Prime is costliest with Sedan in the medium range. Most of the time, Prime is unavailable to me. Mini has

“Eat breakfast like a king, lunch like a prince, and dinner like a pauper.” – Adelle Davis The above quote by famous nutritionist, Adelle Davis highly emphasises on the importance of breakfast in our lives. Breakfast is the most important meal of the day. No matter whether you are a child or adult, do not fall in the saying that breakfast should be light. After sleeping for 8 hours, our body gets exhausted and breakfast provides the body with necessary fuel to run our body. I have experienced that when I eat healthy breakfast, I feel more energetic and do better in college. On the other hand, when I skip breakfast or eat junk food in breakfast, I feel tired, restless and irritable.

To me, happiness is a state of mind which comes when one lives a good life with emotional, physical, mental and financial security. Following is a list of simple things which makes me happy : 1) Reading: Reading makes me happy. I love reading anything from books to blogs to answers on Quora. Books take me to a different world where I don’t have to deal with life stress. I can imagine anything from this world to an imaginary world. I get motivation and inspiration by reading stories and life experiences of writers. Someone has said it right: “Reading is dreaming with open eyes.” 2) Writing: While reading is a great way to know about life of others, writing is a great way to share my life experiences and views about anything that intrigues me. Writing takes my thoughts out and presents it to the world. The fact that people read what I write is enough to make me happy.

Pen drives hold an important place in storage device market. Although computer professionals use external hard drives for data transfer and backup, it is very difficult for students to carry such a bulk device to school, college and friend’s house. Pen drives are far better than optical disks which are more prone to data loss due to scratches. Schools and colleges often ask students to make presentations. Pen drives come handy in these situations. Pen drives are more durable than external hard disks and optical disks. Students often have a habit of dropping things. External hard disks are extremely fragile due to the fact that they have moving parts. With just one drop, hard disks become useless forever. Optical disks are no better.

No matter how much of an introvert you are, sometimes you crave to be with someone. Being an introvert, I know I get bored in presence of many people discussing a topic in which I am not interested. People may think that introverts don’t like people and get together but the reality is they intensely value the friends they have. They can count their close friends in one hand.   They just don’t want to be in company with fake people. From school to college, I always preferred to keep 4-5 close friends who were genuine and authentic. I never followed the crowd. I would prefer to be alone rather than being with materialistic people.  It was the gloomy day of winter in December, 2014. Although my exams had just ended, I was not fully happy.

                                                                Image Source In 9 th class, I came to know about prestigious engineering institutes like and IITs and NITs and their prestigious entrance examination IIT-JEE and AIEEE. If you are an Indian, you cannot escape from the buzz of engineers and doctors. There is a famous meme : “ In India, you first become an engineer and then think what you want to do in life.” After 10th result came out, I enrolled in science stream in class 11 th . Although I did not completely know what it meant but I always said that I wanted to be an aeronautical engineer. Maybe the reason was the influence of former Indian President Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam on me. Anyway as the time went on, I started to hate Physics and Chemistry but love Computer Science. Now I wanted to become a Computer Engineer.
