here's wishing...

.. A very Happy Dassera / Ayudha Pooja to all !! :)

~me.

its been a long time...


... since I last managed to do a post.. days have been running away in a jiffy... last weekend, went to Pune to see off Sandy... was tooo great to be back there, and too disappointing to have to return sooooo sooon..

my bros came down from Delhi, and are riding 'Ooh Baby' these days.. now now, don't get any nasty ideas - that's the name of my prized possession, the Bullet. ;) :P ...

And, this being a long weekend, we all are going off to Wayanad, a wonderful hill station in Kerala...

some thing completely off the track now - When I started this blog, wanted to write about things that I observe - in the world, in people around me etc etc.. to hear from people, to exchange ideas.. and sometimes about the teenie - weenie things that happen in my life..
Of late, I've realised that the posts have become more emphasised on Me.. hmmm... time to come back to the original intended use :) .. will shift back the focus from the next mail onwards.

till then, lets all EnjoI the long weekend,

Have fun guys, EnJoI,
God bless n happiness Always,
~me.

Another News - got My Bullet :)

Doston !! :)
I got my BraNd NeW Bullet Electra - Silver - and I'm gonna have a Roll !! :) ...

It was a childhood dream - to own a bullet.. the majesty of the bike, the royal touch that it exudes, the feel of raw power - just about everything.

It came amidst protests from almost all quarters - atleast initially - friends, parents, brother, cousins, family - everyone was of the opinion that I should rather go for a car.. and the car lease facility available here in my organisation made it really very lucrative too - but I stuck to the bike for 2 reasons:

1. I don't need a car here.. B'lore is too congested, too crowded for owning a car. Really.
2. It's been THE ChildHood Dream yaar !! comeon !:)

It feels especially great to have been able to buy it off my own money - its just an AweSome Feeling :)..

Rest Laterz,

May God shower His blessings onto each one of us :).

God bless n happiness Always,
~me.

kuch bhi about my life :)

hi all !!

Don't know where time flew in the past 2 weeks... *still* don't realise I am here :P .. okay okay guys, no need to pinch me.. chillax yaar !! :)

It has all been an overwhelming experience - am the youngest one [ yet again :P ] in the team, both age and experience wise - rest all are 4-5+ yrs of exp.. not even a single remotely decent looking babe around on the whole floor... :( :((

People around you are either patent-holders, or co-holders, or applicants !! guess I'll have to think of atleast *something* to get a patent on - maybe I'll patent the way I tie my shoelaces ;) :P .. or the exact sequence of my tea making.. ;)..

jokes apart, its a very humbling feeling.. really.. some thing similar to what you feel when u read up "ZenC"'s blog - the sheer knowledge is soo enormous !!... don't have words to express it..

anyways... hhuummpphh... lets leave that aside.. one more great news?? yeah.. :) .. Gonna get my brand new Bullet Electra on Thursday :) :) .. yippie .. yuuhooooo....

what else?? hmm.. sandy's flying to Belgium on a long - term assignment, and when I talked to him, he hurled the choicest of hindi-marathi abuses at me [ trust me, coming from his mouth, they're a golden collection ;) :P] - coz had I not left my job, we both would've been going together, and it'd have been a lottt more fun.. sachchi.. but then, I am not complaining ;) :)..

Hey, did ya know, in past 2 -2.5 months, have read soooo maannyyy novels!! something like 8-10 novels !! an indicative list:
* LOTR,

* The Company Of Women, Khushwant Singh,
* Memoirs of a Geisha,
* The Da Vinci Code, Dan Brown,
* Detective,
* The Family, Mario Puzo,
* Five Point Someone, Chetan Bhagat,
* The Bridges of Madison County, Robert James Waller,
* Nine Stories, JD Salinger,
* The Fifth Mountain, Paulo Coelho,
* The Rainmaker, [Again]

and a few more... btw, while listing down these, got surprised myself... !!

am reading - 'Surely you're joking, Mr. Feynman', and boy, its a MUST READ... Just too good... !!

hota hai, hota hai - mujhe reading fits aate hain ;) ..

anyways, bahut bantering - chattering ho gayee, now lets get back to work - tomorrow is the full day induction for new joinees, with the Indian head also speaking for around an hour.. should be interesting.. :) [ can anyone see the dark undertones? guess not :) ]..

take care guys,
god bless n happiness always,
~me.
