Just to kill time???

Hi people,

Had a tough day @ office today.Nothing special to blog about.However, random thoughts are flashing through my mind like a multi-coloured  string. So I think I gotta try hard to maintain the coherence and you gotta try hard to bear with me 😛

1.Yesterday was Sachin’s day and he was all over twitter,facebook,blogs,Gbuzz and what not… Strangely, I felt out of place. The reason being the fact that I can’t appreciate cricket as  much as many do. There had been and still are times when I had been crazy about cricket (Note:Only if India played). The day before my last 10th public examination was the finals of a close ODI match between India and Pakistan. From that day to this one, I don’t know anything technical about the cricket rules and stuff. All I know is India wins or loses. I never even got interested in the game if India is not playing.I cannot logically offer reasons for what I feel. I appreciate the players and all that stuff. Still…… So, I can understand that it’s a combination of players’ achievement and the country winning,but sadly, the former part fades out of my mind most of the times. It’s been a while since I stopped or rather I lost touch of matches even when India plays.No specific reason,though. With all the hype that came up yesterday, I can’t help getting that old crazy feeling.However,”Only if India plays….” still stands. Hats off to Sachin though all I know is he won India another match and I am  and will be a fan of him for that.

2.The second erratic thought of mine is totally incoherent with the former. It is the fact that how people cannot forget  bitter things though they fully forgive the person who caused it. This has been going on in my mind for  a while. It’s true that human memory is a double-edged sword. Pleasant memories are not a problem. However,we simply cannot forget how we were hurt or exactly by what words were we hurt and the like. I often wish that if it’s possible for us to forget things that we really want to forget,though I know it would never work that way.

3.I have a problem in decision-making. Though I may have appeared to be decisive and steady to many persons,I frankly confess that I am not. I often regret things after I decide on it and when am halfway through it. This might happen to anyone,but,I found this pattern repeating in my life till last month.After much self-analysis or something of that sort,I have made some improvement in this issue. I don’t think it is much to be proud about,yet I feel happy about at least being able to think about this and try to sort it out. Hoping that I should be making a constant progress in the positive direction. 🙂 Also,suggestions from great decision makers are most welcome 🙂

4.This one is just a rant. I am tired of politicians running the media and accusing each other to cover up their own blunders.When is it going to be the time,when you could listen to the news without hearing “X did this and Y did this and so on…” When is it going to be the time when people are entitled to unbiased news on all media,not only in Doordharshan. I know this is one thing that is gonna be a rant for long,still I cant help complaining.

Started blogging today just to kill time,but am feeling better that I got these thoughts off my mind-train. Now that the traffic is lesser,gonna cheer up for the better.

See you,fellas. Until Later 🙂

உன் கண்ணில் நீர் வழிந்தால்…

This is a love poetry written by my friend.This is one piece which has affected me the most, of all that I have read..

உன் கண்ணில் நீர் வழிந்தால் என் உதிரத்தில் இனிமை கலக்குதடி,

காதலி துயருற இனிமை காண்பவன் மனிதனல்ல, மிருகம் என்போருக்கு

எப்படி தெரியும் என் இனிமை என் விஷம் என்று?

Life as it is to me…

February 22, 2010 / / 0 Comments

I got a bit philosophical… So people who aren’t interested,please bear with me.In this duration of my life at Bangalore,I got quite a different perspective about life.I used to think that Life would be good if only,I have all the time to watch movies,be without worries about future.My life at PG proved that to be wrong.What we yearn for at one moment does not remain the same for long.I think Life is simple,it’s just not easy.When you think you have done something,a new problem arises to remind you that “This too will pass”.An interesting quote that I read recently-“Life is like a blanket too short. You pull it up and your toes rebel, you yank it down and shivers meander about your shoulder; but cheerful folks manage to draw their knees up and pass a very comfortable night.” 🙂 Some say “Destiny”,Some say “Luck”,Some say “Hard work” and I say ” A combination of everything”.Life is not something we can control,but we can control how we look at it. A good friend of mine will always say-“You always have 2 choices:Either you fret over your troubles or you get over them and win.What you choose decides the outcome.” Sensible na? However,again,this seems easy,but difficult to apply(I have tried it and failed till now :P) So people,what do you think of life?If you don’t mind,give me some interesting opinions of yours.

First taste of freedom!

As I was all excited about staying on my own in Bangalore,it wasn’t as much as I expected.Being in a PG was good for one fact that you had no work to do once you are back from office.So I did nothing in the evenings except for watching movies.However,as time passed,I ran out of movies and had to be too idle to feel good.On the other hand,lack of internet facility strangled me.I thought the PG life would be like hostel life,but a lot of such differences reminded me that I was wrong.So to keep myself engaged,I started baby-sitting for the 10 months old kid of the house-owner 🙂 Not to complain,I had a lot of fun in managing that kid(Hats off to all mothers,it isn’t quite easy).I didn’t roam much during weekends because I know if I go out for shopping,I wouldn’t have a penny in my wallet when I return.Such is my nature(I inherited that from my dad,I think :P).Coming to the food,it was not too good or too bad-Always manageable.Also,the birthday party of the house owner added to one of the celebrations.Except for these,my PG stay was too normal for my excitement.

Finally,I got back from the PG to my uncle’s home and I am so relieved that I now can have unrestricted net access.I have got so many things to catch upon.So I will be soon posting my PG experiences and similar stuff.Stay tuned… 🙂

P.S:For the people following my posts, my first review was “sappa”(as for everyone).
