Hi,
A long break, and i am back..... You know i started blogging coz it had a therapeutic effect on me, it was a way for me to connect to this little guy inside me... The problem is that i can hear this guy only when i am a little less than happy..... Good times are like a party in a pub. For one u'll be way too drunk to think, two there is too much noise around you to hear this tiny squeal of a voice....
Well let me begin by telling you what happend these 8 months. Job rocks..... I love my company and the bond that i share with my colleges... The growth prospects looks good in the company so, at last my career is heading somewhere.... Shifted my residence (to a much better locality)..... Parents kush (atlast).... So every thing in order and hence i must be realy very happy right??
Actualy I am happy however there is this void somewhere... I keep gettin a feelin that i am missing something... Thats when i started to listen to this little voice..... I normaly feel this after the days work when i come back home, parents have hit the sack and i am sittin all alone watchin the idiot box..... Just feel that i miss a very close freind.. some one to whom i need not say anything but they would still know whats up my mind... Some one with whom i have this connection... just a friend, no strings attached.... This voice has started to grow louder and louder every day and thats when i remembered the bolg therapy and jotted down some nonsence.
Amazing is this human mind it can find light in the darkest places and a volid in a happy content heart.
I'll let you know what haapens in the comin days... till then
Seeeya...

Routine
Hi all,
Routine, thats how i wish to describe my life after my gr8 Indian job hunt. The word might sound very ordinary and ppl might feel that my life has become boring..... but whats wrong with routine??
Now you might ask me as to why i am bantering about like this...... It so happened that i went to a wedding ( Correction was dragged to it by, who else, my mom).... All the aunties who have seen me only in my half pant days were present.... They were so inquisitive about other's lives that it made me feel violated after a while..... i mean first thing they ask is what ur doing..... then ur salary. "Hello, my parents don't know my salary, why the hell will i tell you??" (wish i could have said that to them)..... Then they would sympathize with our generation as to how our lives are such a routine and a bore. As though we are slaves of some MNCs who are slowly sucking life out of us like HIV.
Well thats when i got that question in my mind.... whats wrong with routine?? dont we all have one..... How many of us get to do things we wana do?? does that mean we are unhappy.... The answer lies with in us.... its all about contentment.... I may not be jumping with joy about those 9hrs i spend in front of my office PC but i am content as of now... What more does any one need?? Ppl say you need a purpose to live... but isn't life purpose enough to live?? Some might have gr8 aspirations.... some gr8 dreams...... Well i have this... A Routine... which fills my days and tires me soo much that it puts me to sleep at nights... Thats how i like it..... i may not have gr8 adventures to write about but i am still writing.... So Cheers to our routine lives coz no matter who is with you or not, your routine will always be there.....
Uffff i can be a bit of a preacher at times so apologies again.... Well as to things happening in life... The job is going gr8... still on a mock project...so no real pressure... Personal life is stable... nothings bad, so thats good enough....
So bye for now and keep ur comments and suggestions flowing..... I will be back with more "Gyaan ke baathein"(should have called this blog Gomzi's Gyaan)....
Anyways seeya Chao.....

Dinosaur........ Hunted
HI,,
To start with i must apologies for not posting for a while now.. In my previous post i had said that i would post after a couple o days, but its just been a couple o weeks...... anyways, who reads this piece of junk.....
Okay now abt the topic..... In my last post i had spoken of my exploits in the job jungle, trying in vain to hunt a job.... i had even called this job hunt as hunting dinosaurs(that they are extinct).... At last i have some good news....
I AM EMPLOYED>>>>>>> :D ......
Many of you may say so whats the big deal.... every one gets a damn job..... Well it was difficult for me.... SO BACK OFF.......
At last Mr luck thought enough is enough... lets give the poor chap some slack......
Well since its no smaller an achievement than winning an Oscar to me, here goes my acceptance speech......(i wanted to give it to the HR who gave me the offer letter, but somehow controlled my self).....
Agrmmm....just clearing my throat.. [:D]....
I would first thank the almighty God (for at last accommodating me in his 'approved a wish' list). I want to thank my dear frnds Naveen and Deba (for, well referring me....), My parents who did not throw me out of the house even though i am 21 and still living on my pocket money [;)]... and all the well wishers......
k... Enough of blowing my own trumpet..... oh i forgot to mention the company's name.. It is Webcetera ....
k... Other than this, nothing much has happened off late in my life.... On the personnel front i have been spending more time with family, enjoying my last few days as a free man.... I did watch Gaalipata...with my mom and dad. It was a good viewing... but not as good as Mungaarumale....
But watching a movie with parents at this age is a bit embarrassing, especially when my mom still says not to spill the soft drink on my clothes in front of the whole crowed... Every one in my row gave a look which can only mean, look at this looser can't find a good company to watch movie with... Well thats how moms are, isn't it?? I'll not be surprised if she says the same thing in front of my kids in the future.... [:)]... but i know she is the only one who is truly and genuinely happy for me in my success...
Looking forward for the new innings and hope to meet some new interesting ppl and learn new things.....
I'll definitely not say when I'll post next... but please keep the comments coming....
Here is me signing off...... Chao.....

life after a battle.....
Hi to all....
Is it me or is it common that your hands start to itch after an exam..... In my previous post i had told you guys about the upcoming exam... Well its over and don't ask me how it went coz i genuinely don't know how it went.... It was easier then the previous year's paper so the cutoffs will be sky high....
Now comes the part where my hands have started to itch(No skin allergies there to blame).. I have lots of time on hand and nothing much to do....
I have started to hunt for a s/w job. At last the fear of those tiresome night shifts have gotten in to me(much to the delight of my parents).... Oh hunting jobs is like hunting dinosaurs nowadays.... ppl say they exist but i find that they are extinct.... All that crap abt the dollar falling down and the IT companies feeling the wrath have started to make sense now.... Well heard that companies are laying off ppl let alone hire new once.... All that a chum like me can do is to keep trying and hope my luck changes some day.... If the results of my exams come good then it'll buy me 2 more yrs.....
Well enough of this depressing crap( Sorry but can't help using that word), or so i said to my self and went to see Taare Zameen Par... yesterday with my best budd.. What an awesome movie... The best i have seen in many years... If a movie can make me, the insensitive stone hearted idiot(at least thats what my ex called me) cry then it gets my thumbs up.....
The movie should be made compulsory viewing to all teachers... Through out the movie all i could think off was this kid in my class back in school, Rakesh... He never used to be able to read or write properly in spite of all the effort that the poor bloke had put in.. My teachers never understood him, one even pinned his exam paper to his shirt and paraded him through the school.... The poor chap could not even differentiate b/w colors..... They humiliated him.... i too laughed at his answers when they were read out in the class just to put him down... I wish i had the guy's number, so that i could call up and apologize.... I think thats the least i can do..... I wonder what he is doing now??
Anyways... So thats whats up in my life as of now.... Its the calmness after a battle....and yet an intuition of some troubled waters ahead.... Lets hope that there is no chinks in the armor this time around.... see you in a couple a days... Chao...

hi to all.... (that is to two or three ppl who actualy read this crap),,,,,
Well an all immportant exam is round the corner and i've started to feel the heat.. Too much is at stake and that makes me apprehensive... There is something with me and math. Its like this irritating guy in your peer group whom you hate and want to get rid off but some how every one else in your group loves this guy.... I am no math hater from birth..... i enjoyed math in school... i still love combinotorics(which many hate)... but there is something about trigo and calculus.... i never seem to get hold these subjects.... they are like quicksand more you try, the more you sink.. so my stratergy in this exam is to do well in subjects that i am strong at and hope that i can solve some in calculus...
on the personel front life is a bit smooth... with me sitting at home burried in that big fat book, social life has gone for a toss... haven't met any friends from months.... havent been able to catch any movies..... (would love to watch gaalipata).... so not much there to screw up in the personel front...
cant wait to finish this exam and move on with ma life......
so catch ya guys after the test...... bye....

finally here
Hello to every one who reads this..... errr if at all any one reads this..... at last found time to create my own blog spot.. always wanted to but some how never did it... well here it goes...
Now what are blogs for??
A blog (a portmanteau of web log) is a website where entries are commonly displayed in reverse chronological order. "Blog" can also be used as a verb, meaning to maintain or add content to a blog.
at least thats what wikipedia says. So its just a website which maintains things in reverse. hmmm big deal... so why does every one so hung up with this??
May be its because ppl are tech savvy nowadays and they like to maintain a diary on web... but aren't diaries meant to be kept under the pillows. Aren't they supposed to be stolen by pesty siblings or suspicious moms... Then lets rule out the fact that a blog is a journal..
So may be ppl want others to know about them... so they post.... but if they want others to know then they are bound to be 100% fake about themselves..
Anyways to come to a conclusion, according to me a blog is a place in the virtual world that ppl use to advertise themselves and make others feel that a lot has been happening in their lives when the truth is far far away from it...
So now you may ask me.. If blogs are soo fake then why do i blog??
hmmm simple.. As every one else i want ppl also to have a perception of me which i really am not...
call me blunt but thats what i feel....
hmm now why do ppl read blogs??
Its soo human to be interested in other's lives. It fascinates us. We all think our lives are boring soo we login to see how other's are doing.. We envy those who have posted about their gr8 trips to Europe, their conquests in Africa only unaware of the fact that a lot of that is crap( apologies to those offended). I am not saying that every ones life is boring but if its soo exiting then they don't need a blog to show it...
So to all those who pretend that their lives are better than other's but secretly hate their lives (including me...)... cheers... and lets keep blogging... after all this is a VIRTUAL WORLD....
Bye for now... catch ya later...
