Cricket weekend

It must be after 6 years that I touched the bat and ball once again. Was so refreshing and entertaining that for those few hours I forgot that I was in US of A. It felt really good and dint feel as if I was getting bored on this weekend. Was surprised to know that cricket is popular here as well but only amongst Indians. MC , BC, presure cooker and cricket are some of the things which Indians carry everywhere. I dont think we can live without them. But seriously aftermath of that glory and ecstasy of few hours was unbearable. Whole body is awefully paining but still I guess it was worth everything. Looking forward to play this game of cricket once again some time in the new future.

Then saw this movie called Shall we Dance. Was nice movie with nothing in black or white rather just in grey. How our life is. Well there wasnt much story in it but then was good to watch. Was defnitely one of those feel good movies.

Then ya slept a lot as usual and again on this monday couldt make to DMV office for the driving test. Sad bloke I am! Have been planning to do this for like some 10 weeks and still not able to make it. Dunno when that determination will come in...

Anyways was a good weekend after some 2 months since the day I have left my country. Something to cherish finally:-)

One more of sleeping and DVD weekend

After that saturday late night stint in the office got up at 3:00 PM next day...Watched Page 3 and I must say it was something refreshing and new as I had not seen something of this sort in the past. I presume all of us know what happens in the industry but to be narrated by an industry guy was kinda altogether overwhelming experience. It was no eye opener but was a brave film...

I am so bored of my work, its sedentary nature, its monotony, its conspicousness and last but not the least its requirements of looking at one white dumb screen for hours. I am really begining to hate this. Dunno when I m going to get rid of this.

Keep making plans of studying further but god only knows when I m going to materialize this. But what is there I would love to do? May be nothing and just sleep:-)

Might travel to New York again this weekend. Nothing is sure though. This guy to whom I am interacting these days, gathering some requirements for Anti Money Laundering (Supposedly to identify terrorist activities), is some sort of a nurd. Keeps changing the requirements daily and keeps calling me to New York in this chilling winter. Though good sometimes at least get to travel and roam around on company's expenses. Lets see how it goes. Actually he sits in New York and me in SFO and we normally talk over the phone.

dwarfatlarge blogs

Just going thru some blogs which I must admit are refreshing and not boring to read...There was something written there abt Chidambaram and then abt how costly these apts are in Blore (visible Maintanence valley). Shall I ask them to just have sneek peek at the rates in bay Area(arguably the only Silicon Valley in the world). I assure rest everything will take a big rest.
Anyways its 1'o clock in the nite and I m sitting here in my office writing this. What else can u do when u are forced to sit in the office at this scary hour.
First of all thot may be some body i like will come online and then may be I can chat but it seems things which u like will never happen. Guess sometimes u shud force ur mind to think the other way and then there u go...Suppose it doesnt work like this.

Spoke to mummy today and once again she reiterated that i shud come back and get married...Well i m not opposed to either :-) But still I m not doing either... Strange may be may be not...

Tried umpttenth number of time today to get up early and go for this silly scary and suppose to be hard driving theory test but time i guess will always beat me. Hope I am the winner in this race next time....Hoping against hoep @#$%^ Dunno....

Blast from the Past

This is my first experience in yankee Land.

I know its little late but then i guess thats ok, Isnt it?Here I go then.

First of all I must admit that going away from India does hurt and makes me wonder Y do ppl(including myself) really want to get out of their country. Really surprising. I guess money is everything. Ok fine now without pondering into this debatable and philoshpical topic more I think I should move on. So as i said when I was moving towards the main entrace of Chennai Airports I could feel something in my stomach. I dont think thats explainable, but there was some strange feeling. I guess the feeling of fright. I was scared of some things and that is the reason i gues i was remembering god that time and i was trying not to think anything. But tell me is it possible to stop yourself from thinking. Well i dont think so. But that was an emotional moment for me,more because my mom was there. I know she some how stopped herself from crying.

Anywasy that moment passed and here I was sitting in one of the worlds most admired airlines.
Singapore Airlines journey I must admit was the mind boggling experience. I mean they serve with so much panache. just had a gr888 journey in Singapore Airlines. Arguably the best Airlines. They have this Entertainment system for each individual where they have put one TV for each individual. Now there u can play video game. U can also listen to some music. Watch some 50 movies, MTV and lot more things which entertain ppl. There was one sports channer as well. But they were just showing golf only. So i took full advantage of this system by watching as many as 4 movies. All of them lastest releases in India like The passion of Christ, 13 goin on 30,Helsing and one Hindi movie called Hera Pheri.

But even with this system i did get bored. Man 24 hours is something. However good the facility is its just very difficult to sit continouly for 24 hours. U know wat I even spilled my entire food on one Korean girl. My god was she pretty. She was much more than that. Luckily for me she dint say anything when i spilled my food. I felt so bad lekin kya kare saale kaante aur churi se khaane jaayenge to yahi hoga na:-)

I almost missed my flight at Singapore(the transit point) as there was some 3 hours
break and i fell asleep but thank god i got up in time just 10 minutes before the flight take off. Sleep is the best thing on earth. So flight was good but was really tiring. I mean sitting there for some 24 hours can make anyone go crazy. Isnt it?

As soon as i got down i realized it myself whatever one of my friend was saying was so true that everything here comes in jumbo size from buildings to ppl to the size of juice glasses. As i took taxi i immediately found out that Man this place is something spcl. Vehiles here ply at the some speed of some 100 miles per hour with such ease which means 160 km per hour. My taxi was like an airplane. These ppl have these freeways here which means that once u get into this road u wont be stopping anywhere on this road. Thats amazing. Saw 4 flyovers on top of the other.
Staggeringly beautifull. Covered some 15 miles till my hotel in some 20 minutes. 13 miles of freeway in note more than 10 minutes.

As soon as i went inside the hotel, I realized that i'll have to use my hand as many number of times as Yogi uses daily. The receptionist was may be the most beautifull women i had ever seen with minimal clothes on top but with a jacket. As I started loitering around all alone i found out that every second gul is beautifull with minimal clothes but not as beautiful as my hotel receptionist. Clothes i guess here are not liked by much ppl as its very hot here some 100 F ( Check out this is Farenheit) .

These yankees here use everything in world which is not common. Farenheit, Miles, Pounds, Gallons and many more things like that. The way we swith off something they swith it on and
obviously vice versa. Then this place is fucking costly ppl. U have to shell out some 2500/- for 15 miles in the cab. Exorbitant amount. Then on top of that u have to pay him 10% tip. If u dont he will ask from u directly. U have to guys.

My office is a boring place with no chicks all desi ppl around talkin in Hindi settled here with family. Sometimes i feel this UBOC is being run by Indians only. I hardly get to c any gora aadmi in the office. Had some work as soon as i came here but then for past 2 days no work. Bas makhhi maar raha hun. Maarni kuch aur cheez chahiye waise to mujhe lekin i dont meri kismet mein kab hain. Shaayad kora kagaaz kora hi rah jaayega doston.

I guess I have written too much for a blog. Hope u guys dont get bored with this.

New York Trip

I am just back from New York and boy was that great!!!No it wasnt...The reason being I had visited it one of the worst times. But I must say somethings were really good like snow, braodway show (Hairspray was outstanding) and high rise buidings.

I guess if you are standing just next to a buiding then i bet u cant see the top tip of the buiding:-) Then if anybody on earth if he/she loves theatre then he can visit New York specifically for this. They are amazing. The way they present, their designs and audience and tickets everything is just too affluent. Being in snow i bev has its own fun if are used to that much of cold (single digits fahrenheit). I wasnt for me it was just cold very cold and extremely cold. And ya one more thing ppl from Mumbai wont find too much difference in the subways. They work like locals only.

Was actually very lonely there. 2 weeks and and all by myself. Infact have been lonely since the time I have come in this country. I dont have any other reason for me to be here other than money. Ya u can have money in this country if not anything else. Keep thinking about going back to India but lure of my own money keeps me here. I wonder for how long. There is hardly good thing which I can remember has happened till now. Wished my one of my very good friends. She is really nice and sweet. Every time i speak to her, that is when i feel nice in this country. But I must chattin to her is more fun than talking to here over the phone. 3 reasons: one she doenst talk much over the phone and second there are things which are easier to write than speak :-) Third I get to see here face, she is gorgeous. Well to be frank I like everything about her. No second or third thots abt that.

will write more abt her some other time. Can write lots :P

Is it really Required

well, I just keep writing here and there and then i am not able to keep track of them and that is y I thot of writing at some common place which can be accessed from anywhere. Cool!!!

I think I am just fond of writing and love writing and I would have loved if I could have made career out of this. But I guess u need more than what I am to make a career out of this. Anyways I will just keep this going and keep writing something or the other to satiate my need of writing:-)Makes me feel good.

Some of my friends say that I make sense in what I write though I m not sure they still think like that. Well, this is not negative thinking but accepting something which is possible and I believe change is something which will always remain on this earth. Ppl change, thots change, things around u keep changing, I mean everything changes. Isnt it? But why? What is the reason that everything changes? Why cant be something static? Why cant something remain the way they are. Some would challenge that then that wont be life! May be I m not sure though. I feel and take it everything differently. I feel options is the reason behind everyone else. Everything changes because they have option to. If there isnt any option then no change. Well what a big discovery rite :-) Everybody knew this. But thats not all what i think.

Options rather is behind all the misery, grievances and sadness. Is it. Need to ponder on it more but just for hint. We have 2 options, we take one, quite happy with what we have taken but sometime down the line we think other option could have been even better and we make ourselves sad and that is what is bad. Just a thot!

Thats it I guess for first blog of my life. Will try and write something cheerful next time.:-)
