Audi R8 V10 Plus Dealer Edition || In-Depth Review

Image
The AUDI R8 is my all-time favorite supercar. The love is such that, I have 7 Audi R8's in my collection so far and another one is coming soon. Since most of my collection is back home and I have access to a very few models that I purchase here, I haven't been uploading many reviews. Let's get straight into the extensive review of the model. The Audi R8 needs no introduction since I have talked a lot about it in many of my previous blog posts. It has a V10 engine with a 610hp in the plus version. The scale model here is a 1:18 scale V10 plus in the beautiful vegas yellow (and my favorite shade on the R8 too). It is a dealer edition since it came in an Audi Sports official box. Though the brand is supposed to be iScale (only they had the vegas yellow version and later was discontinued), but the box clearly has Kyosho Deutschland Gmbh. Not sure if iScale is a subsidiary company. Starting with the huge plus point of this model, the paint quality. It is simply...

Phase of My Writings

Image
I usually don't update posts on my blog once in a week. Some thoughts strike randomly, at times once a month and times once a year. Hence the untimely posts. Insomnia is something everyone faces, I am, right now. Some thoughts flowing through my mind. Welcome back to my blog and thanks to my friends and family for constantly encouraging in these writings. Did it ever occur to you that what you are at this point of life is because of an instance in your life a few years back?  A small flashback into my own life, as a kid (or even a teenager), I never really liked poetic stuff, writings, meaningful greeting cards, blogs or even books. I considered the textbooks were the only ones you had to read, never even completed a single book that I used to take at the library. I used to read to fall asleep and never really caught the essence of the books. Harry Potter, for example, I started reading the books only after I watched the movie and only when everyone at school was so e...

Short Story

Image
Formalities apart, I am trying to pitch in some new thoughts into my blog and came forward with a small story. Not really a love story, but I guess it happens with everyone. Hope you enjoy reading it. Feel free to drop in your thoughts or suggestions in the comments below. It was a cold and sunny January day. A usual day to work, wake up at 10 in the morning, get ready and rush towards the bus stop trying to be on time. It was like a routine day and as always, waiting at the stop with the headphones on (trying to avoid unnecessary contact with people #introverts). The bus raced down the road and came to halt at our stop. Like every day, the lookout for the window seat was on, because #privacy. The bus then proceeded to the next stop. The ____ mind always searches for a known face in the crowd or maybe it just searches for the beauty in people. All covered in the winter wear, a known face (vice versa was not applicable) boarded the bus and was looking around for a seat. She looked ...

MASHUPS!!!

MASHUPS It is that time of the year when we prefer to stay indoors. I guess I found a perfect way to make your evenings relaxing sitting in the warmth of your home. Hello everyone. Mashups, we are all a fan of it. These are something that kind of give us a sneak peek into some of the best parts of different songs in just one. If you have been following my blog from the beginning, I posted a blog post about a friend who plays guitar ( click here ). Guess what? He has his own small band now.It is called Octave the Band.  They have been giving some live shows around the city of Hyderabad. This post is more about making their talent reach to all my readers. They have some amazing mashups already on YouTube. Please do share and subscribe to the channel.  These are the songs that I grew up listening to. Their mashup's are a bit different and capture some of the forgotten gems.  There are even more amazing songs in the channel. Please...

Satisfaction and Joy

Image
It's been really long since I published something here. I wasn't that busy but was searching for ideas to share something meaningful. In the last 2 months, I took up a part-time job at a bakery in a hospital. I was put on the line on the back where I had to make sandwiches, salads, and wraps for the customers. Many people back off when they are assigned that duty. But I really liked it.  There are a few reasons why I liked it and wanted to share them. Food is something that is right at the top in anybody's life. It is like the most basic necessity for any living organism. How do you feel when you are done with a really long day of work and you go out to grab some food and you get some extra food than you asked for? It makes my mood happy seeing that extra food. ALWAYS! There is a different kind of satisfaction when you see someone smile seeing good food at the end of the day. And that satisfaction gets elevated when you are the one making that food. Ain...

Ego = 1/Knowledge

Ego : A person's sense of self esteem or self importance How would one react when their ego is hurt? Would you go all angry and violent? Or just let it go because you know what you are?  Bigg Boss in Telugu is a TV reality show just like Big Brother. I follow it regularly. Many people have a notion that it is all unwanted drama. But I see it as a social experiment. When you have nothing to do and need to live with a few other strangers for 100 days, is something of an experiment about human behavior.   There is a contestant in this season who is a human activist, atheist and many other things. There was a small disturbance last week where his ego was hurt. This made him react with anger to the situation. In my opinion and based on what was shown in the show,  he was superior to the other people in the house cause he had achieved so much in life and wanted to make a mark of it. He was later trolled a lot on social media by th...
