From Dawn….TODAY

Back to my routine, wake up early and set with my physical and mental tricks!
I sit with my hot cup of tea (prefer coffee in the mornings, but habituated to tea now) with yesterday’s newspaper. I see our Rahman holding the two beauties (Cheers, his achievements are immense & deserves every inch of the OSCAR!!!); about Frieda (not quite liked her); about all the people who are involved in SDM project...…..
DIL is watching TV; the country is giving a grand Welcome to Rahman, with background score of Jai Ho.....Its all about SLUMDOG and SLUMDOG from last 2 days!! Y-E-S its bought INDIA to limelight overnight!!!

I take an Auto till Banshankri Bus-stand; from there a Volvo till ECOSPACE office.
They play good music in the bus and again it’s “JAI HO” played most of the time in all Radio channels…I personally like Ringa Ringa than Jai HO


Now coming back our darling Rahman, I was ONLY excited, when I heard he won the Oscars. For me, it’s an award for his masterpiece not only for SLUMDOG; but also for all the lovely music he has given us from Roja to Bombay to Jane tu….. I strongly fell they were all much better and electrifying than the SDM music ~ Love u Dilip...urf Rahman ji..As per the Times, he believes in God; prays a lot and take each day as it comes without having any plans for future; which in turn ensures he has no pains – W-O-W! I make a resolution mutely to have no expectations from LIFE and “Like R; take each day as it comes”……

but just few minutes of reading; unknowingly I was reminding H about something…There I GO; u know myself a common being will not stop expecting things in life…..Be it from WORK-FAMILY-FRIENDS, be it GAIN……Be it for TOMORROW! U need lot of mental stability and willpower to be content and move effortlessly in life. It’s the Expectations which lead to all the “WRINKLES” in the face and Heart! GYAANJ
“'Blessed is the man who expects nothing, for he shall never be disappointed' was the ninth beatitude- Alexander POPE-

These are the things running in my mind, while sitting for an hour in the Volvo bus…., hopefully ppl watching me (if they happen to) laugh at my funny facial expressions, reflecting my silent thoughts!

Have bought some Infy stuffs, gifted by my team to my new workplace. Will deco my workstation with them; so I know was associated with a lovely place once. This also proves am jobless to this extent now. Once my project starts, will I even have time to @$@#$#@$#?????
I laugh, I love, I hope, I try, I hurt, I need, I fear, I cry. And I know you do the same things too, so we're really not that different, me and you.”

Anyway, let me end with this cute one below, I just read…..Lovely

Expecting the world to treat you fairly

you are a good person

is a little like expecting the bull not to attack you

because you are a vegetarian ;)

PS: Even as I close this; I hear someone playing JAI HO from the other bay @ work!!! JAI HO!!!!

Go for Gyaan!

Am I under CURSE? Well, I was a Team Lead with my previous employer, which basically involved handling TEAM; more of "PEOPLE", than "PROJECTS". Now, with people I was required to say 'NO' (or) give Gyaan-etc…Today, Multiple people have started giving me Gyaan (which I PLEASE do not require, I can handle and be INDEPENDENT, shoooo away!!!!!)) This makes me feel, I have been winning the fruits of what I had to give to my people before :((( This is not a right comparison!
When am facing "obscurity"; its the thought of KARMA which haunts me... am not able to take couple of things and Diplomacy is just not helping me!

Well, I write what “I FEEL” at the moment and whats going on in my Life - uncomplicated and straight since I need to look back in life and SMILE! At times, it might look SIMPLE – FUNNY- STUPID; but this is for MEJ

Well, we had been to “GUHA” (or is it GUFA?) for Saturday dinner. For my own records, I sat in Merc for the first time in INDIA and YES; it’s a different feel!
H’s fren who is a First officer in Indigo owns this Merc; gifted by his dad for his 21st B’day, owowowww Lucky him. Now, since Flying has mentally strained him, he actually allowed his fren’s to drive his beauty. When H took his turn, I just loved it!!! I never dared to take the seat, it’s a Giant & Scary too~~

Am currently reading this book “TWILIGHT” from Stephenie Meyer. Hypothetically a lovely book but its disappointing me. It’s a Love story b/w a Human and Vampire – unconventional right but am CoN#$@^d and no FEEL of Love HERE!!!
Am back to “WORK LIFE” tomorrow, biding goodbye to my long hours of SLEEP and getting geared for W-O-R-K!

My strength is made PERFECT in weakness

My mind is rootless today, maybe cos of the the incidents which took place in noon - at times life throws at you hardships; FACE IT!!!
sayin' it's one thing and feelin' it's another: Am sayng here and also feeling to an extent, silently my mind is troubled whats happening to the wife n daughters who are directly facing-feeling it. You have no options at times nor a PLAN B, you need to sail with it......

There are two things that one must get used to or one will find life unendurable: the damages of time and injustices of men. ~Nicolas Chamfort

"H" IN GoLdEn pAlMs

'H' left to Golden Palms yesterday, for 3-day training Program. As excited as he was to take his backpack and leave for the 3 day long session, assorted with FUN-DRINKS-DANCE ( psst..girls & Massage;)) , My heart was tumbling and was thinking..who will take me for a walk in the evening, whom will I crib to for next three days, whom will I ask suggestions about whats happening in m life for 3 days, who will act like Donald duck ( opps, he does lovely act n sound of DD) , whom do I tell my day long story of joblessness and seek some tender words...

:((( Boo...hooo..hoo "SeLfIsH Me" !!!!
He has promised for dinner on saturday, which is keeping me keyed up...
But at the end of the day, I must plead guilt that half of my 'brain-soul' is not functioning right, since he is A-W-A-Y!!!
Miss u H......

Had a uneasy sleep, since I had a early morning call with my new boss and kept me awake most of the time, checking the time in my handphone....My travel is now postponed, Gist am here for my birthday and will not miss out on the GIFTS:))
Visting my new workplace today, Nostalgic about the first day I walked into Infy!

Assignment from DIL!

"SLEEP" is the mantra now! On an average am sleeping for 11 hrs a day...o..w.w..wwwoww.w.ww@#$..special thing about sleep is, the more
and deep you sleep, the more you feel like continuing it, hahaha..
Coming back to the reality, my DIL ( Dad In Law) today said, am getting too lazy and need to start tickling my brain cells before it gets rusted or get used to my idlying!

Today, I have an assignment from him to work on a Transition plan b/w a Client and a Vendor; based on my experience with my previous employer; reason being my new role demands me to do lot of planning on transition services and execute them efectively.
It only 'sounds' interesting, but its not very easy to work on a ppt and requires lot of domain to impress him.....My excuse was, I do not have a notebook with me...well we have our old fashioned PAPER! anyday, rely on it!!!

Will keep posted, whether I was really able to come up with a PLAN!
Need to go to the bank@9. Now, with my experience with Canara bank from last 12 days I can actually come with a plan for them. They make you run around, everytime reminded of a new doc you need to submit! Hopefully, this is the last time am visiting them for this month!

Thanks to my Uncle, who got me an introducer for current account so fast! ( this is for my own record;))

3 more days at home.....
