Yuppie!!! Just been promoted to Groupie!!! Am Happy!!!
Hi friends,
I am Rupa from Rhode Island, US. Born and brought up in a small town named Ichapur (close to Kolkata). After school, went to Delhi to do my graudation from School of Planning and Architechture (SPA). Completed my PhD last year end, from Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU). Recently joined my hubby (an earospace engn. from KGP and Texas A&M) in US. Currently looking for a job as well as awaiting my retirement (Planner ko sab plan karna padta hai yaar).

Profession: Urban environment Planner
Married : my best friend from school 😳
Hobbies : Reading, listening to music, watching movies, pottery painting and collage making, love travelling (love West Europe, Sri lanka and Rajasthan), world's cuisine
Fav book : To kill a mocking bird.
Fav singer : Lata, Clapton, Sheryll Crow, Lobo,
CD i keep with me: Roxette Tourism
Always carry : good sense of humor

Nihira: The reason i joined the forum. Couldnt get enough of her, so failed to concentrate on other contestants.

A little about Norway : Norway is the heaven on earth. Peter jackson may have used New Zealand for shooting, Tolkien's middle earth and land of hobbits is Norway- mystic, misty, mountains . Its language 'norwegian' comes close to german. But people do talk in english too (I still cant speak norwegian :-(). Though keeps a low profile, it is the wealthiest of nations and also have been topping the human development index for last 4 years (the index that determines number of facilities available per capita). It is so rich that it is not funny. One eg. : it gives pots of money for child-birth to anyone with a social no. (which includes students too!!).
Norway comes closest to a socialist democratic society. It has neither very rich nor poor. The picturesque landscape is breathtakingly beautiful with mountains, fjords, glaciers and greenery. Though its quite a long country (its tip touches russia), the population is very low (secret of all success, i guess). Its the safest possible place one can get.
NTNU's departments of marine, petroleum and hydropower are one of the best and they provide enough funding to developing countries. It is a very environment friendly country (though petroleum is the main resource, is mostly stocked up for future).
If u r not afraid of cold, norway should figure in your travel plans.

Just bcos i became a groupie today doesnt mean i should get carried away!!!

Best regards.

Hi Rupa! This is fellow architect from Sir JJ College of Arch. Mumbai. It was very nice to read your post especially abt Norway. A country less Known but am sure must be beautiful!!Architects love to travel and I surely will want to add this country to my list too.And also congrats for the job offer. Hope you have fun! After graduation in Mumbai, I worked in Dubai for few years, then got married and came to Washington DC. Currently working in an architetural firm and waiting to finish three years so I can try the registration exams.

I am mostly a silent spectator on this forum and hardly know any more features but loved to hear everyones UPDATES and views.Most of the members are very passionate abt music and that is so good to know. I use to learn music as a school kid but could not cont. much.Later sang in some shows in and out of college.The talent in Saregamapa BLOWS ME AWAY.Especially nihira. Being a marathi Joshi myself i had blindly supported her from day one. I had never heard of her before but since Ismail D. said she was his fav. I did not have ne doubts and now m very proud of myself!! Second was Hema and no doubt these two will shine endless in their careers...

Bhaskar, you wont believe this but just this morning i was thinking of starting a post on us.. Saregamapa fans and who they are, what they do, their interests etc.. to help us know better and thks to you for saving me all that trouble!! I thought after the finals interest would soon die out but looks like its still something!!

I am a jatpunjabi and live in NY and actually grew up abroad yet have all the indian values.
my intersts are very well rounded: I enjoy sports, music, writing, dancing, and acting (I am part of a localdesi group)

I also realized I am on the most addicted list over here so I guess the net is another hobby of mine though am a serious student as well.
