The love of my life - Food!

Ah.....God thought after a whole lot of complaining I did in the past few days, he would let the bright light of the blissfull days shine on me!

A good day, enjoyed my work...almost finished it and the best part is, its working!! Atleast till evening it was! Ahh the satisfaction u get after completing an implementation! Now, I am only more determined what about what I want to do in future.

And, the day was even better coz I had Walnut brownie with hot chocolate sauce...what more can u want!! Ahh....desserts...oh I forgot to mention, I also had half a slice of Apple Pie. I dont know why I have this obsession for Apple pies..to eat it, to smell it, to bake one! Its some kind of weird fascination! And not like its one of the best desserts u can find around. Something that I think there's no requirement for a reasoning now...so let that be...

Well, I dont know why food is so important for people. I mean afterall it was meant to be just a means of nutrition for the body, what was the necessity of those small lumps at the back of the tongue. Most of the major issues revolve around food! "Oh, U are going to China..what are you going to do about food"? (Please dont ask me why I picked China)! "What! u made the same thign again tonight"? (And then right there the seeds of a frigthfully complicated troublesome marriage is sown)...and one of my close friend believes that problems due to food is one of the things that makes the world go around! (Actually it should have been food itself...I wonder why he thinks its the problems associated with food)..

And these days I have become so jobless that I have started writing a cart-load of crap in my blogs! But, what me worry? Who is there to object!

Life - Gimme a Break!!!

A Bad day..one of the worst...sucked big time...

Things will never change...no matter how important it is to me or how much I want something...I aint getting it so easily. Never! God wants me to know what hardwork is..in all matters. Even the smallest of things, I have never got anything by chance. I dont get it! Some people have all the luck in the world. They dont struggle as much and yet manage somehow. I dont like this...this is being unfair. If I ever get something I havent worked for, then God will probably cry over the twist in his plot!

Well....I know I am writing crap...but then this is my blog..so nobody better have any problems. Well, I just had a bad bad day and a very frustrating one. And there I go explaining...

I just want a break. Not 2 days at the end of a week, but a long holiday...a nice trek...a trip to some exotic unknown far far away land..(ahh... "far far away" and the things Shrek had to experience there)! Actually, being close to nature makes u forget all the worries and even people sometimes! U dont want anything when u r in the midst of a forest sitting by a stream...the tranquility of the surroundings...the rustle of the leaves.....the gurgling waters....the peace u feel within...that is all I want.

Better mood..better day...

For the first time felt good about my work. This is quite close to what I am interested in and what I want to do...happy that I am learning so much and gaining a few of the most valuable things in life; knowledge and experience.

Well..no matter how much I curse my workplace for being pretty stingy about giving holidays and pay, I think this is one of the best things that happened to me. This place has done me good. This company got me out of the "I am going to sit and rot at home after engineering" cribbing which I am sure was irritating quite a few people close to me!

I must say that I have been extremely lucky to have been put into a project that suited my interest and has some quality work going on. I see many of the freshers who joined with me in quite a pathetic state; already bugged with the whole IT industry!

And...I must say that IT industry doesnt deserve to be demeaned to the extent that I see it being done around just because the jobs are plenty. We musn't forget that it does provide employment for so many Engineers reducing the unemployment rate in India.

No, I am not in a Patriotic or "IT Hail" mood...but sometimes when certain things deserve credit..it must be given.

Being my first job..if I were ever to leave this place, I am certainly going to remember all the good this company has done for me.

(Hoping I wont be jinxed...and hoping Vivek Paul reads this and decides to erase any kind of dissapointment regarding the company and gives a hike)!

I still havent found what I am looking for

I have climbed the highest mountain
I have run through the fields
Only to be with you
Only to be with you

I have run I have crawled
I have scaled these city walls
These city walls
Only to be with you

But I still haven't found what I'm looking for...


Life takes its own twists and turns and we all feel like we are being played around with. And so many times we are so sure what is right for us and we wont let anything...any incident, any advice change our mind. But, sometimes we are too foolish, we cant let go of people or past incidents or cant let the mind take over the heart...and end up suffering!

And we think we have found what we wanted...money, comfort, a relationship...but today,I feel I havent yet found what I am looking for.

"Be careful to whom you give your heart, coz when you give your heart to someone, you are not only giving that person the right to love you but also the power to hurt you"!

Straight from the heart

Its been really long since I blogged. Well, I have plenty of reasons for that, but the main thing is that I was preparing for an exam. It went well and according to a few people, I could have done better, but I guess I am more than relived about this coz I failed once earlier.

The purpose of this blog isnt to talk about my exam, but about the person who is behind me in making me take this exam again. The person who gave me courage to face it all over. This isnt the only thing he has done for me. Our friendship is quite old and all through these years he has supported and encouraged me about everything that was dear to me. The first one to give me frank opinions and the first one to criticize me. The one to scold me (he acts like my dad sometimes!) and the one to praise me for all my actions.

He isnt around these days, but that has not affected our relationship in any way. Apart from missing being with him and observing all his reactions and expressions, I dont think much has changed. He is still the same old moron to me who gets as excited about the important things in his (or my) life (like food and Natural languages) as the smaller things in life. And he has always shared it with me. I can imagine him literally jumping around while he is talking to me on the phone explainig what happened a few mins back!

I cant help but mention that he is also the weirdest person I have come across till now, not to mention his absent mindedness! The kind of passion he has for the things he is interested in is so amazing. I have not seen so much passion for something in anybody else and probably this is why he succeeds in everything he does. He is totally into something (could be some novel, a subject, some food item, a girl,....) that interests him! And he can also give all his time and effort to peel a single grape! Peeling a grape?? yes!! He did that too (I told u he was weird)!

Well...I have so much to talk about him and it is quite impossible to write everything here. My life would have been totally different if he wasnt around and probably not this good. He is the best and deserves a very good life and I know he is going a really long way in his career. Not to talk about his personal life...what with all the girls hovering around him all the time!! :P

I dedicate this blog to my dear friend... "Thank you for being there for me dear and wish you a very Happy Birthday"!

And thank you Fate for making us both meet!
