Things lately

It's not like I'm not missing blogging and writing things out of my system. Even today, I'm doing the same, but nowadays, i find something or someone to keep me busy and blogging just takes a step back. I would love to get back to my blogging family and read them all everyday, however, I'm just not in the same place as i was last year when i had all the time in world to dedicate to my blog.

I do miss not been able to write, mostly after watching a good great movie or after an experience or anything because that's how i always blogged and what i blogged about.

Though, it did hit me to quit but then i thought, i won't gain by quitting but i'll surely loose something which i have been holding on to for past 4 years now. My blog is one of those few cherished/achieved things i have in my life.
And then, where will i share my first's. I mean, I'm still going to have a lot of first's. There's a lot for me to be experience, to see, to feel and to live. And what place better than my own blog.

I know blogs are loosing their touch because of all the facebook and twitter likes, but, i think blogs will hit back like the FM radio did. I may not be consistent and frequent but a time/phase in my life when I'll blog frequently as i was last year. But for that, my blog and my life had to wait.

Any who, for those few people who read me, just a reminder, this won't gonna end. You all will get those bugging updates and subscription mails reminding that this blog is still alive.

You Can Call It An Year Now

Hey All,

It's been an year since the day, i left my home and moved to this new city of Bengaluru(Bangalore). Today, i also complete a whole year in my second job for Invidya Solutions pvt. ltd.

Left most with eyes closed.

The year is filled with a lots of first's. And today, i'm only going to talk about the happy first's. So, read on the happy experiences i have had since last year till this date :-

1. The best thing happened to me after moving to Bangalore was the TRIP TO GOKARN. It was the first time, i saw at a sea for me. The first time i saw it, i was amazed by the vastness of it and still is.


2. You can call me independent now. I have been living, on my own for more than 8 months now. I'm responsible for my life here. Not dependent on anyone of any sort.

Black with folded hands, that's me.

3. Blogger's meet. I have attended 2 blogger's meet organized by Indiblogger. I always thought blogger's are these virtual people whom you can't physically meet. But this myth was broken early in this year, when i attended my first blogger's meet. It's always good to give faces to the names.


4. Work is getting better. It obviously is from where it started .....it is in much better conditions.




5. Sea Food. See, the bad part of living is Northern India is, you don't get good sea food which i got to know only after moving here, similarly i no more try to find good chaats in Bangalore, cause it is there. I ate prawns, different fishes(Tuna, being my fav), crabs though i haven't tried any wired stuff.

That's all food in front of us. We sat for close to 2 hours for this buffet.

6. Buffets. I love buffet's, now. After, coming here, my appetite grew drastically. I have attended some 8-10 buffet's and can tell you, if you want to get the worth out of an expensive buffet, i'm your guy.


7. Blogging. Though, i have mentioned it at seventh spot but by no means, it is less important to me. Blogging have been really good for me. I reached an alexa of 67,000 in January, 2010 and mind that it's really good. Then, i got my first Google Page Rank of 3 for the first time in the 3 years of my blog's history. I stood 3rd and 5th while participating in the Indiblogger of the Month for the month of April and May, respectively.

Click to enlarge, You can see my name there. Yaay me!!!!

8. Live Cricket. I saw live cricket for the first time in my life. It was Delhi Dare Devils v/s Bangalore Royal Challengers. It's an amazing feeling to watch a game live.

I know, i look stupid....in most of the pics......but that's me.

Warping it up for the day. Soon, will be writing about the bad first's.

Happy Diwali

Hey everybody, its Diwali today. One of India's most celebrated festivals. The day has different significance for different religions in India. Everybody and every religion India celebrates Diwali for different reasons. What are the reasons? you must be thinking about that.........and want me to explain............but no i won't do that..........cause i have somebody really especial who talk the talk about Diwali on behalf of me.

Presenting Mr. Barack Obama . In case, you don't know him. He is president of America or United States of America and also recently won the Nobel prize for peace. No more please listen to him.




My plans for Diwali

Well, since i'm born, 1987, today is the first Diwali i'm not celebrating with family. I'm away from my family and friends. Well, i actually i have some friends here also but nonetheless, i'm not so glad to not make to my home city for the festival.

I've bought tickets to a amazing match between Delhi DareDevils V/S Banglore Royal Chalangers and another one between Cape Cobra's and Victorian BushRangers. I'm expecting it to be a great match and my favorite team is playing The Delhi DareDevils. They represent my home town team.

Then what other things we do, Hindu's, on Diwali. Its a festivals of getting everyone together for me other than the real significance. When i used to be at home, i would go out and give sweets(mithai) to all my neighbour's and by all i mean all, atleast 15-20 of them. Then, we also give out sweets to all the relatives me can reach and obviously we aren't the only one doing this, whole of India does this. That's why these days there's a lots of sweetness in the air.

We also light up Diya's,"lamps" you may call them. This is to kill the darkness in the night signifiying removing darkness acorss the world. We also bust crackers, a lot of crackers. But this year, i'm not buying crackers because i believe there will be a lot of fireworks in the Stadium during the matches.

I know not many of my readers are from India, but still i would like to tell, if you people know any Indian's around, go celebrate this festival with them because you'll enjoy it too. For foodie's, go to Indian resturants to find exclusive Diwali sweets.
DO POST whatever you did for Diwali. I'll also post the pics from the match.

Pee In The Pant Moment

Hi all,

Today, when i was in the bus coming to my office, i heard about this contest on Radio where they where doing this contest. The contest theme was "Pee In The Pant Moment".

Although i didn't called them and participated, but still i thought what was i my "Pee In The Pant Moment". Then, i went deep into my heart and started rewinding things.

Then, i found one moment. This is from my college days. Me and a couple of my friends were playing Table Tennis in the gym. The college gym was inside the boys hostel. After sometime, the guys who lived in the hostel came and asked us to leave and let them play. But we didn't want to leave the game in between and we didn't afraid of them. So after some loud argument, it became a fight. And, soon one of those five guys pulled a iron rod out of somewhere, and that was my "Pee In The Pant Moment". I was stunned, standing there like a mannequin. I was so afraid at that moment thinking what will happen if that guy hits me with that rod. Although, i didn't really pee in my pants........but that was something......which could have made me do it.

What happened after that? Thank god, one of my friend was not out of his senses and he kicked that guy and took the rod from him and threw it away and saved me. I really thank my friends who were there.

After that incident, we three people were like so popular in the college. Everybody knew as the people who beat the hostelers in the hostel........it was like killing a Lion inside its own den. They all must have thought that we were really brave to do that......but they didn't knew the real "Pee In The Pant Moment".

Note :-
Ok, here's the catch. Tell me your Pee in the pant moment and if i'll like it.......then the winner will get 1000 EC from me. So, let's do it. The Contest is here for a of couple days. Till 28, Oct.

Stress Buster

I know you may have heard it from many women. But, let me give a man's vantage point towards the same. Firstly, I never thought of it like this.......but shopping is my new stress buster, this may sound a bit girly, but it is not.

Ok, another first thing................my stress for the day was.............my friend reminding of home. Sunday late nite, my friend had a thought of flying to his family a couple of week later for an especial festival. So, we certainly talked about home and the fun. IMPORTANT NOTE :- i have recently moved out from my home to a new city some 2500 KM from my home and this is the first i'm living away from my family. Also, may be in your part of the world, its usual that kids leave their parents and live independent but that's not the same here.
Cut to today morning - I was feeling so low today morning.....that i felt sick...........headache and all.......probably because of less sleep. So, i also took off from office today. Then, i thought what would make me happy.........so i called some of my friends and we went out. Then, we were roaming in the mall and i saw this pair of shoes. And i know, i wasn't in a bad mood......i would have never bought them. But today, i just lunged towards them. Although, i did require a pair of shoe but not this much expensive.(Price Tag - I'm not publicizing it but you can make a guess and i'll tell you how far or near you were.)



Then after the day was over........i mean it is 12:12 AM mid night, rite now here in India. And then i realized, why i bought these shoes...............it kind of gives me internal happiness.

I know you all have a stress buster................and think you may have realized it earlier than me. So please, tell be about your's too.......

Move On

Last few months have been very dynamic for me personally. These all started and is centered at my new job. I had to leave my earlier job , then had to leave my family, city, friends and state to move to a new state. Yea, it is exciting...to move to a new city and to find new people but i'm still new to the city and still feel lonely. Think the hangover of the histroy i had, will last more than i expected.

Leaving the histroy, future is here. This is a nice city...........i have my issues.....but this is a nice place.I'll give it the time required and well, i'm very patient, so i can give is more than that. This is a good city to move in. I don't know if it is me or something else.....but the feeling that the language i speak isn't the language of this city freaks me out. I mean yea this city is also the part of same country but India is so diverse.......we have, i think, 15 national laguages......which also are scripted........i mean that can be written too......and many are left out because they didn't have any script, they are just spoken. So different language is a problem to me atleast, don't know how other live with it.

Also last few days, i'm getting these signs.........to move on......don't keep fixating to my history. I mean....i just finished......FRIENDS all seaons.......and it also gives you message that everybody will not be there forever. Also i saw ICE AGE, which also kind of starts with the "MOVE ON" word, when Diego thinks of leaving the herd. Think i have a lot to learn here.


Leave that.......will be writting further how everything is going.

Wordless Wednesday

Yea,

I used to work a Tech Support Rep......If you have worked for Bank Of America.....and ever called .... 1-800-SUPPORT......there are like....1/100 chances that you may have talked to me. It was fun there. Although, i left that job like 3 months back......but i liked it ...and miss it.

Garden city of India -- Bengaluru

Its not been much time in this city, yea Garden city of India -- Bengaluru. Just three months...... and the time here have been fantastic till now. Bengaluru is one of those places of India were you will diversity in almost everything - food, people, culture, community, religion, landscape and i can't put everything cause can't remember everything rite now.

Being so special city of India, it hasn't lost it charm. Bengaluru have always been known for the Gardens, have retained charisma. Bengaluru is the IT hub of India and can easily boast of as the most oppertunity providing city to the technical gurus. People are not only coming from different parts of the country but also from other country.






But today its about what hasn't been changed since last few decades. The gardens, don't if its the administration or the people who have done some really great work. Cheers to all the people who are and have been responsible for this effort. Some of the pictures ahead.

Importance Versus Necessicity

Everybody understands the literal meaning of Importance and Necessicity but its not easy to really understand the real word. I saw a movie named The Three Kings, think its was a 1998-99 movie. People like Mark Walberg, George Clooney and Ice cube were part of this movie. There was instance when Clooney's character talk about things being important or necessary. That was a great talk and know some dailog in a movie can't motivate people and this isn't about motivating people. Its just that this thing just struck and then stuck into my mind and i really wanted to throw it out in the open.

Things being important, what i understood was, things which have great value for us and we really need them but the same way, no a bit different than importance and the difference is that, necessicity is for the moment, at that vary moment. Thing which may not be important or really stupid can be so necessary at times that you'll regret it after its gone. But, we know and only the individual can know that it was necessary.

People make decision, if they succeed they are happy but if they don't they regret their decisions. One thing i want to say here is never give up on your decisions.Possibly, that decision was not something important but it can be a necessicity for that moment. Always back your decision even if it fails. Admit your failures, they will help you more than they hurt you.

Good Luck, have a nice day.... :>
