Welcome 2007 !

So Its new year day and I am here in Office, doing nothing but blogging this piece so that you can see it.

This is the first time that I am away from home on new year day. I am missing my family today. The new year eve was not awesome coz I had no one here with whom I can hang around. My flatmates are occupied with themselves and the namesake friends are also busy somewhere.

The first day of year has its own charm and beauty. everything seems so beautiful and fresh that there is this aura which is all over you and around you to motivate you. I was driving on my bike for the first time to office and was having a feeling of satisfaction as I dint had to ride a bus to work anymore. Today there is fog, its not that dense but visibility was almost 60-70 mts. It became dense as i was approaching office as this area is open and very few buildings are there.

I will write more towards the end of day, but for now you must enjoy this day to fullest while I do some work ;)

Happy new year :) May God shower his blessing son you.

Omlette and Namaskar

It has became a routine affair to have an omlette near shipra gate no 1, whenever I manage to reach home before 8:30 PM.
The cold wind that makes me feel so insignificant in three-wheeler ride back from sector 12-22 forces me to have something hot. and what can be better than an omlette on a cold night. I usually come walking down from red light on highway. I avoid taking rickshaw for such a short distance. I go for it when I am too late and the street lights are not up. The place where I have the omlette is a rod side cart, managed by a lady, who is accompanied by his son sometimes. His son works as a driver in DPS, Inmdiarpuram. She told me once that she asks her son to go home after work instead of being here helping her out. Neverthless, some times he do comes. The lady is a bit old maybe in her 50s. Besides her cart, there is another cart which sells tobbaco, gutkha, cigarettes n related stuff. That old man, in his 50s as well is courteous. He has started recognising me. Yesterday when I was about to move after eating, I heard "Namasakar sahab" . I turned back to see and there he was smiling. I was touched. I replied namaste and then smiled and moved. It touched me coz here I am, more secure, more well off than him yet I have caught myself in so many cobwebs that I fail to be happy and enjoy life of late.

I dont know what to do, what to say. I dont know whom I can trust on. I dont know whom all to say as friends. I have bad experiences and they dont seem to leave me alone. People have betrayed me as friends all due to their evil deeds and evil nature. They are so damn evil that they even manage to keep all others on their side. AN dthis leaves me all alone fending for my self.

All alone, will keep fending for myself

Nike

It was one fine morning, which was going to be screwed like always in the bus ride to office. The bus being, famous 34. For me it is infamous.

Wearing brand new nike shoes which are white n grey in color. I was standing in a corner, to get away from everyone, in order to protect my loving shoes from mud n dirt n from getting trampled down by any one :)

But that bus gets so damn packed at sector 37 bus top that when that flood of ppl ride the bus from there, some idiot landed directly on my right foot :( n obviously on my shoe. I dont know whether he knew that I am going to wear my new shoes today and he was waiting in some mud to color my shoes brown completely. I was speechless, thinking what to say. I kept my cool and asked him gently to remove his foot. He apologised. I said its ok. I was in a fit of rage but still maintained my cool as it was not his fault. He didnt did it purposefully.

I fall apart!

Here I am, all apart.

3 Doors Down

It was a long time since last time I heard this band. The songs are really grt.. I dont know about their allslbums but "Seventeen Days" is what I have and all songs in this are worth listening. Special mention goes to "Here without you".

I have to soak clothes for washing them tommorow morning. That means I will have to wake up at 6:30 tomnmorow morning. I have some other things to attend to also. I have to take some documents and then I have to press my clothes. Maybe I will have to get up at 6:00 AM. Yup that will be allright.

Manas is linkg the book. He has already read near about 150 pages! Wow.. By the way he is reading "Freedom at midnight". I myself havent read so many pages since I got the book!

I am busy completing "India unbound" at present. And after that I think I will go for iCON and then I will go for "To kill amockingbird". Oh its a long wait list down there. And I have to buy some books also. I ahve to search for "iWOZ" and then I have to buy AMitav Ghosh's books.. I need to read them. I ahve heard too much about him. I missed the discounted Jack Welch. Lazy me :(

But I am happy that I am keeping my promise, actually better than that. I had decided to buy a book a month. I end up buying more than one in a month. Hmmm my collection is increasing slowly.
