Why iam i this way ??. Why do i feel lonely all the time. ?? Why do i call myself a "tragedy king" ?? Why does the dog in my street bark every time on seeing me ??
Well these are some of the million dollar questions i put to myself. I know i exagerated a bit, but who cares. If u think it isn't worth worrying abt. Think again. The first impression ppl get when they see me is tht iam an extrovert and fun to be with. They always end up with "is-he-sick-or-wht" expression. I wont blame them. Its jus that i develop an attachment dat bit extra to their liking. Without even considering about their feelings towards me.
At one time i feel over the top, and the next moment start singing "chal akela ... " in an awful voice, which is powerful enough to take anyone into depression. I wonder whether its congenital defect or does it have to do anything with my zodiac sign. FYI, iam a cancerian.
Well iam going through not-so-good days. Work was hectic at its best. I had to send a snapshot of my weekly attendance to my friends to say dat i do work :D. 'Release' is the word PMs use to sentence us in a jail called cubicle. I can't explain how i felt at dat moment. Weekends completely in office. Can u think of any other nightmare ??. I dont know why these code releases are always on Monday. PMs must be working hard on schedules to make us sweat with the a/c on. Well, no point in dwelling on this. Therez a famous saying in english. Though its a non-veg one. Complete discretion recommended. If u can't escape the ........ , enjoy the .... . N dats what iam following. U think u can push urself to the limit, but it comes at the cost of side-effects. Like frustration, anger to name a few.
On a personal note. Things have been at their worst possible best.
Some things have to end. They jus cant keep crawling at the cost of ones self-respect. Therez a limit for everything. The more u think about it, the more it hurts. Is liking n caring for ppl a sin ?. Y don't they understand that. Does it get to their heads ??. If that's the case, then iam not far behind either. Iam ready to show them the real meaning of that phrase. These days i really needed a smeone to console me. I really miss them.
The bad news is that, i have started being rude. No point in being a mimosa, when ppl take u as easy as a samosa. I know dats the worst u cud have read for a while. I don't know, iam loosing my mind. N i have started using the word "Busy". Earlier, even if my PM was breathing under my neck, i would have never used it. I always thought, we can't be busy to a extent, where we cant have time for our loved ones. Well as tasneem says, its all about prioritizing things. The problem with me is, i have neva tried to put things in perspective. I have leant more lessons now, than i had learnt in my acads. N i think its high time dat i implement them.
Dn't rememba where i saw this , " Neva make someone a priority in ur life, when ur jus a option in their's". I think it fits the bill, abt wht iam trying to say now. . May b, its the only solution for my probs. "Der aye, doorust aye" type.
I know iam sick. N i need to take a break. Before i exhale any more fire. I'll take leave.

Me and My Resolutions
I Wish you all a very happy new year 2008. I know iam the last person on this planet to wish. Its so late that it can't even be categorized into "belated wishes" category. Saying that I was busy would be the biggest lie of the year. Woh bolthe hain na, ' likhne ka keeda ' mujhe kabhi kabhi hi kaatha hai. Without any further delay, apni aukaad pe aatha hoon.
When u wear formal dress with shirt tucked-in and a card hanging on the neck (id card), u tend to think like a professional. As a part of professionalism, u get ur career graph printed right on u r head. N use the GPS system to see if its in the right track. Hmm, I wouldn't say i have reached that state, but surely some things have rubbed onto me.
I feel like having a look at the promises i made to myself in the form of resolutions during last year and their progress.
1) " work hard, enjoy harder ". :
This is the most trickier of all. If u work hard, wherez the time for fun. I dnt knw about the first part but i have followed the second part in its true sense. We are a group of 4 morons. we manage to have a blast even at a funeral. Its been 5 months since we know each other and i think we have missed just 2 weekends. Its like we are waiting for the weekend. All in all iam having fun. Coming to the work part, during the most part of the year i was jus passing time. I desperately wanted to join a project. I guess some god heard it and he landed me into this hell. I guess i have mentioned about this project in my previous post. Its no fun trying to remember hell. My average working hours for 3 months was 14 hrs. So to talk in business terms, " my last quarter efforts meets expectations " :p . It gave me the opportunity to make new frnds, the cab drivers, the cabs in-charge, and like. The cabs in-charge is very upset when i leave the office by any chance even at 8.30 pm. So as to not to hurt his feelings and my PM's too, i dive my head into the monitor and wait for the security ppl to drag me out at night. For a change, iam loving my work. So i wud say the year went well and i score nos marginally better than dhoni's average in australia tour.
2) To eat chapattis :
Now-a-days I eat chapattis as if i was born in Punjab or any north-indian state. If u think this must be the silliest resolutions of all time, i wud say " abhi post baaki hai mere bhai ". If u still think dat its too silly, imagine the pain of a sardar ji who is made to eat idly or dosa with saamber. Kasam sardar ji pe joke marne wale ki, iske tho pure number milne chahiye mujhe.
3) To eat curd :
This gives the above resolution a run for its money. Sorry to say, but i still hate curd. Have tried it many times but failed miserably in adding it to my daily diet. Like dhoni failing in australian tour.
Hmmm so i leave it to the beloved reader to decide whether i have succeded or not. I know iam talking as if there is some reality show going on and iam part of it.
Here i come ( rather shamelessly) with another set of resolutions ( most probably to break it) for this year 2008.
1) To change the company ( jump jilani is my idol ).
2) Stop having blasts at funerals .
3) To be more technical than lalu.
4) To complete SCJP certification.
I think we should set realistic goals. Rather than being too ambitious and feeling low on confidence when failing to achieve them. 3 and 4 falls under the ambitious category. Lets hope for the best. If my mom gets to hear the forbidden words like "career graph", "professionalism", "goals" frm me, she would surely call up the psychiatrist for an appointment.
Till i get bitten by ' likhne ka keeda ', u can help my mom in suggesting a nice psychiatrist.

Diwali Dhamaka .....
This year, i wanted to make diwali a memorable one. Whats better way than celebrating with friends, so i called them over to my home. As they had no other option, they obliged to it :D. sometimes, I dont leave them with any options u c :). I was very much looking forward for this diwali like dravid for test matches after being dropped from one-dayers. As diwali was on friday, it was a longggg weekend. I was literally pestering my mom to arrange things. Our house is more like a hostel where 4 bachelors(we are 4 brothers) n 2 caretakers(mom & dad) stay. No prizes for guessing the untidyness of the place where 4 bachelors stay. So it was sort of herculean task for mom to arrange things n make our home look better than a hostel. For the first time, i helped her :). I have never written anything about my frnds i guess. Better late than never.
Introducing Vishnu and Rama krishna. Yeh dono mere langotia yaar hain. We were classmates in school. Its been 8 yrs now. We have shared everything ... ranging from answer sheets in school exams to unmentionable things till date. We are the main source of income for the theatre guys. Kodi, as we fondly call rama krishna, is a career oriented, disciplined, studious guy, very unlike me :). Uske discipline ke charche ghar ghar mein hain. As it happened that, one day we went for a night show at 7PM at a theatre nearby. This fellow left the theatre after movie interval coz he has to reach home by 9 PM. Even at the age of 22 , he sleeps at 9.30 pm. Now wht do u call him. I can compile a book "kodi ke kaarname" based on his unforgiven actions. Talking about the other one , vishnu, hez a hardworking, puntual chatterbox. He talks everything other than the one required. That too with no due respect to other's ear drums. Hez more interested in the food cooked by my mom( he enquires whenever he comes home). Agar "Dil chata hai" ka koi telugu version niklega tho hum zaroor honge usme :p :p.
*phew* . Hey 2 others guest were there too. Shoba and Jyothi. They are vishu's frnds. I call them chotu(shoba) n motu(Jyothi). Their physical appearence is true to their nick names. This sums up the guests list. Mom was busy in arranging things for the pooja. We all joined mom. We were more eager for the pooja to end so that we can latch onto the sweets that my mom prepared. After pooja, it was time for 'pet' pooja. We collected the crackers bag n walked straight onto my apartment's roof like an army troop carrying its armoury when sent on a mission. We bursted all types of crackers. The rockets were struggling to take off, n even some bursted in our teritory itself. Bajuwalon ke rockets ko dekhkar hi khush hogaye. We had the ball of a time. After a tiring cracker bursting session, we had our dinner. Everyone left after that.
This post is coming a week later. Diwali celebrations are still afresh in my memory. I gues, i got wht i asked for, A memorable Diwali. Hope to celebrate many such diwalis with better rockets though.

Graphophobia and Jogi :)
Its been 4 months 3 days since i have posted anything here *phew*. Now dont doubt my maths abilities n start scoulding my maths teacher after seeing the last post dated sept 3rd. Its a guest post aur woh mere khate mein nahi ata :p. Coming to the reason for this layoff , therez no reason as such. Saying i was busy wud be as true as narendra modi's non-involvement in godhra riots. Frankly speaking the problem lies in the root. Iam very bad when it comes to writting stuff. I'll paste my gradutation certificate as proof. Its just the lecturer's belief in charity that helped me pass the exams. Jonny gaddar ki kasam , mujhe nahi maloom ee blog kaise shuru hua. It all started in the heat of the moment , now iam feeling the heat to keep it alive. I have been suffering from Graphophobia(fear of writng, I googled it :D) since years. Mere se behtar tho inzamam ki vocabulary hai. One of my frnd had to remind me that i own a blog n its currently deserted :( .
I was in freepool for 3 months n now in a project since 1 month. Now, that sums up the things happening at professional front. One sad news, i left my homeland(manikonda) n now iam in my sasural(madhapur) :p. I have been moved to madhapur for this assignment which is a big assignment in itself. Believe me, the project iam working on right now is the biggest development proj running in wipro , hyderabad. Talking abt the technologies involved, "u name it, we have it" wudn't be an exaggeration. Coming to the inside stories , ppl here wrk till late nights n therez nothing like weekdays or weekends. There was a meeting of the HR with the project developers. She quietly noted all the grievences of the employees in her laptop. Iam sure that file size of the probs list might be 100KB. It was kind of a laugh riot. Luckily the module iam involved in is not hectic right now(can't predict the future u see).
Cricket is keeing me hooked these days. Boss after all we are the world champs in 20-20. That win provided me with one of the happiest moments of my life. I salute to Indian cricket team n especially joginder sharma(i fondly call him 'jogi' :P).

I really have no clue abt how he was selected into the team. When hez bowling u get the feeling that hez begging the batsman not to hit. Last over against aussies was ok as he had 22 runs to defend. But the finals, i wud really want to know how he was feeling at that moment. Final over of the World cup finals that too against Pak, can it get bigger than this. I wud say it was his utter luck n 1 billion prayers that saved the match. I dnt think he wud be seen in the team again unless he goes back to basics n understands that bowler needs to bowl to the wickets.
Now that i have got temporary relief frm Graphophobia :p, u can expect more PJs n more non-sense :D:D.
I wish u n ur family a HAPPY n safe DIWALI .....................

"An angel stops by the Devil's paradise ..."
This really shud'nt be the way a "guest" must post at anotherz blog, its like sneaking into one;s home (with thier permission ofcourse ! fir bhi.. its still "sneaking" ) blaa neva mind, not that i feel outta place, but i still think Anilz shud have been a lil more umm well i dont wana use "cautious" but hey wateva!... hez given it in safe hands ( his pwd!! how silly now? waise i know it aint a khazaana :P.. magar.. fir bhii :D) n He knowz well y i call my hands safe .... no Anilz.. i aint talkin of the "trust" n etc ( i wanted to call it crap in this context, but its too nobell a word fr me to define it dat way!! )
Gee okk dat reminds me.. Anilz warned me bout not writing things dat wud bounce ova d head :D but hey.. aadat se majboor.. n atleast by now.. since we complete a whole year together tomorrow!! OH MY GOD!!! CAN U BELEIVE THAT!!!! :D .. lol see dat.. now hez online n stil askin me bout planzz fr tomoro! :D
neways... this is fella is a nice chunk of no sense :D, dats how i see him, I think he onez told me, or probably i read smwhere.. that he uses his Heart to think, n not his mind.. n i smhow was kinda averse to that, so :D.
n these days, its like this wierd spel on him that he puts in words like this -- " Dont make others a priority in ur life, when u r just n option in theirs" . Well dotn disagree buddy, but.. umm therz a lot more to dat aint it ?
He pinged me on yahoo after gettin in tuch wid me on the wipro group at orkut. n since then i tell ya, wheneva i;d sign in.. he;d be tehre. I'd be frank, since i wasnt d kind to talk much unles i knew, he always ended up starting the cnversation. n wel... I was rude to him once ( d blocking thing ), :D but i did confess later on whn v were gud frndz :)
hmmmm not dat i;d run out of wrds, but i js have one lil thing to tell this dumb pal of mine, smtimes u dont have time to accomadate everything important in your life, thats when you prioritise things, n thats when all the important things fall one after the oether n hence lose importance, but that loss of importance in jsut too miniscule a size to feel that one is let off completely.
n did i tell ya i know almost all his girlfriends????? ( :D yea u read it rite thats in PLURAL!!!). But man a year, n its been nice, those walks we'd have, it was strange when u said u;d luk around to see if m cmin :) Thanx, those walks were always shorter than the usual 2.5 km that we;d take :)
Hez a pathetic singer n terrible n lyrics, so watch out if he offers to sing !!! n ya... dont eva take him as partener in Antakshri unless ur too gud at it urself or if u wana loose :D

Happy B'day to me ... :)
On 3rd of july, 1984 around 4'o clock in the morning there was a huge cry. A hardly working soft engg was born :). Hez as lazy as ganguly in the field, as inefficient as agarkar, as fluent in english as inzamam. I can see some heated ganguly fans there. I dnt want to damage their(player's) image anymore, i'll stop here.
Its my 23rd birthday (yakeen nahi hota, wait i'll paste my birth certificate). Well here goes the ppl who wished me first....
* Govind thru SMS
* Raghu was the first to call.
* Lakshmi in person
Congrats u have won free tickets for 'jhoom-barabar-jhoom' movie. C'mon yar smeone shud see the movie rite. varna producer aur distributors tho suicide karlenge. I knw u r all looking forward to this movie :) . The most difficult part is trying to figure out who has called. They jus pop-out from no-where and start throwing puzzles. I have a frnd who calls me only on my b'day every year. I was in the bus when i got this call frm a frnd whom i cudnt recognise...
frnd : hi
me : hello
frnd : many many happy returns of the day ..
me : Thank you so much .. i was smiling as if i heard news abt me winning sikkim lottery.
(now the KBC starts)
frnd : pehchan koun ??
me : after a long thought ... pushpa .. (ekdam kaka ke awaz mein)
frnd : nahi nahi ....
me : pls baatado, tumhe pushpa ki kasam ... (I was very anxious to hear other 'pehchan kaun' type ppl waiting to wish me.)
frnd : Ok. I'll give u a clue ...
me : Thanks a lot (I was as relieved as Indian team after winning SA series) .. pls go on ...
frnd : My name starts with 'p' ...
me : wowww !!! wht a clue ... (i was speechless .. coz i dint knw any one whose name starts with dat alphabet ). can u dig-in a bit more. Iam very poor at solving puzzles .
frnd : u r the dumbest guy i have ever seen (ee frnds bhi na ... meri tarif karne me kabhi nahi chukte). Iam prashanti.
me : ohhh ... thnk god u saved me .. by da way thnks for the complement.
I reached office at 8.30. When i opened my mailbox there was mail waiting to be unleashed . Its was a very beautiful one, it had lovely roses, mouth-watering cakes, yummy chocolates, a cute teddy bear, Very beautiful message. Iam very poor at describing things(kya kare bhai,hum bhahut bheek hai angreji mein). The nice part of the mail was the attachment. It was a .exe file, when i opened it surpassing all wipro warnings , i witnessed a beatiful sight. There were flowers thrown on the screen, it was as if electron gun was firing flowers instead
of electrons. I jus loved it. U knw, i even sent a very excited mail to them saying "u made my day". I get disappointed when expected people dnt remember my b'day. So i had to call them up n remind em' dat its my b'day today.
The surprise of the day was when kets n ashwini planned to celebrate my b'day. We were 4 ppl. It was written "Happy b'day Romeo ". I told them it was anil kapoor's name in sme movie n not me :) . As soon as i was done with the cake cutting formality they jus jumped on it. We 4 of us ate the full 1 kg cake. Cake ka namo nishan bhi na raha. Wht do u call us now .. 'cake- eaters' (similar to man-eaters). We jus torn the cake apart. Believe me the cake was so delicious. There was nothing planned for the evening. Overall the day went fine. I thot it cud have been gud if things were planned.
Did i say that iam in Free pool now. Our second proj is scrapped. I gues sme one from expedia must have seen my last post. Aakhir ek kaam tho akal ki kiya hai client ne. Iam very free now ... (wondering when was i busy last time??). Our team mates have moved to diff locations. But me sitting in the same cubicle. Iam waiting for my next prj like sehwag for his place in the team.
Once again thanks to all the ppl who took pain in wishing me :) .
chalo then byee ...
p.s : I took 2 days to write this post. So its published on 5th july instead of 3rd july. Kya kare yar i was very busy on dat day :).
Its my 23rd birthday (yakeen nahi hota, wait i'll paste my birth certificate). Well here goes the ppl who wished me first....

me : Thanks a lot (I was as relieved as Indian team after winning SA series) .. pls go on ...
frnd : My name starts with 'p' ...
me : wowww !!! wht a clue ... (i was speechless .. coz i dint knw any one whose name starts with dat alphabet ). can u dig-in a bit more. Iam very poor at solving puzzles .
frnd : u r the dumbest guy i have ever seen (ee frnds bhi na ... meri tarif karne me kabhi nahi chukte). Iam prashanti.
me : ohhh ... thnk god u saved me .. by da way thnks for the complement.
I reached office at 8.30. When i opened my mailbox there was mail waiting to be unleashed . Its was a very beautiful one, it had lovely roses, mouth-watering cakes, yummy chocolates, a cute teddy bear, Very beautiful message. Iam very poor at describing things(kya kare bhai,hum bhahut bheek hai angreji mein). The nice part of the mail was the attachment. It was a .exe file, when i opened it surpassing all wipro warnings , i witnessed a beatiful sight. There were flowers thrown on the screen, it was as if electron gun was firing flowers instead
of electrons. I jus loved it. U knw, i even sent a very excited mail to them saying "u made my day". I get disappointed when expected people dnt remember my b'day. So i had to call them up n remind em' dat its my b'day today.
The surprise of the day was when kets n ashwini planned to celebrate my b'day. We were 4 ppl. It was written "Happy b'day Romeo ". I told them it was anil kapoor's name in sme movie n not me :) . As soon as i was done with the cake cutting formality they jus jumped on it. We 4 of us ate the full 1 kg cake. Cake ka namo nishan bhi na raha. Wht do u call us now .. 'cake- eaters' (similar to man-eaters). We jus torn the cake apart. Believe me the cake was so delicious. There was nothing planned for the evening. Overall the day went fine. I thot it cud have been gud if things were planned.
Did i say that iam in Free pool now. Our second proj is scrapped. I gues sme one from expedia must have seen my last post. Aakhir ek kaam tho akal ki kiya hai client ne. Iam very free now ... (wondering when was i busy last time??). Our team mates have moved to diff locations. But me sitting in the same cubicle. Iam waiting for my next prj like sehwag for his place in the team.
Once again thanks to all the ppl who took pain in wishing me :) .
chalo then byee ...
p.s : I took 2 days to write this post. So its published on 5th july instead of 3rd july. Kya kare yar i was very busy on dat day :).

Bhuka pet
The devil is back :) ... Iam here to celebrate the completion of my first project(Our client knows how well we
messed it up :P). Its like coming out of tusshar kapoor's movie. My previous posts will give u just a vague idea about how badly
i wanted that proj to end. I know it has been many days since i have posted anything here. People out there might be giving 'who cares'
look as well. Believe me it was like, roaming in the same village, but not going to u r home (kuch hajam nahi
hua na .. tho hajmola khao :P). Have i lost the enthu to blog?. I guess i jus lack the motivation. A comment or two from readers would do dat. U
might be saying "besharam , comments keliye puch tha hai ... thodi tho sharam kar", no issues. I love peeping into
other's blogs :D. The first thing i do after cming to office is check for any updates in sme selected blogs. I now have hell lot of free time for every damn blog. My second proj has started but wrk is not assigned to me.
U knw who the client is ... guess ... wahi "Expedia" ... bada besharam client hai yar. pehle proj ki aisiki
thaisi karne par bhi doosra proj .. chiii .Actually this is a pilot proj. Depending on this proj's success (most probably failure), the client will decide
his partnership with us. Ppl are taking things very seriously here. Its very small proj, just for 2 months.
They have roped in 13 members. ee tho wahi baat hua na , chote saamp ko bade lakdi se marna.
On personal front, lifez ok ok. Wahi weekdays pe kaam, weekends pe movies. It gets a bit boring. I want a
change.
Shaalini is leaving the company today ... Shez been a gud frnd of mine ... I guess i have to get used to saying
goodbye to ppl. This is just the start. Everyone are planning to leave. As far as my plans go, Iam planning to
stay atleast 2 yrs here. I dont think wipro is too bad a place to stay. No particular company in mind at this
moment, but will surely eye CSE,Accenture,Infosys,CTS, or for dat matter TCS.I used to wonder why ppl keep changing companies like a rent house. I dont know abt others but i jus want to
see diff company's work cultures. If its a fun filled one then it wud be most appreciated. Cming to fun part,
we had our first team lunch :D. Its was nice to go out with a team of 20 ppl. I was soooo hungry as if i have
jus arraived from somalia. When the food was served, bhuka anil inside me said "tut pado". I had a fest of a
time. I didnt even leave place for an icecream in my stomach. It was as if i preserved food for next two days
:D. Our PM has identified potential 'bakras' for next team lunch. Iam one of them :(. Us din tho mera upwas
hoga... nahi nahi koi bhakti nahi ... mujhe hi tho bill bharna padega na, isiliye :D. I'll send a group mail
saying "bache ki jaan aur kapde aap ke haatho mein hain, Kripiya aap apne peet ka hi nahi, mere izzat ka bhi
khayal kare".
This post is dedicated to shaalini . ALL THE BEST buddy. Have a gr8 life ahead. We'll always remember those
training days. Thnks for being part of my dream dayz. N hey, u must be having second thoughts about inviting me
for u r marriage n reception, after reading this post. Dont worry, i'll have my lunch n cme.
Chalo bhai, team lunch ke liye personal loan apply kartha hoon. Koi loan denewala hai ... suniye !!!!
