the plan itself excites me ...

I dont know just seem to be more happy since i booked the tickets for home. Yeah finally hope that I would be coming to India after 2 years. 2 years is a long time but i have been seeing alot of things.Seems as if it was just days... Yeah my humming as i get out of the lift and the people laughing behind my back thinking I am crazy. the little kids njoing the evening. sitting in the seats and chatting . those long night walks .. the amul tri cone and the malai kulfi in the nights.. njoing the bhaiya's pani puri....getting drenched in rain.those fantastic houney in tarin. those long waits for frnds and buddies in the station. those softy ....

yes Iam all excited but there is a little bit of fear. The frnds might have changed their priorities,the might have adapted to some new routine, might manage to spend a day with me or may also be an hour. yeah but still I am waiting keenly for those moments.....dying to meet some people who were my langoats .......hope they would be excited to see me ...the way i am . hope and pray that i am not disappointed ....

which kind are you

people normally tend be either of the two
1) make their own decisions
2) wait for others to take decisions and finally when there are no two options left ,pick the one that is left.

I am amongst those second group....a man who doesn't know what he wants...

One of those weekends

Yo hardly get those long weekends. So We had planned a trip for couple of days to a nearby place (abt 3 hr drive) called SHASHTHA lake. We had booked a party barge and a room in motel for the night and were eagerly waiting for the weekend.Finally after a long working week came Saturday morning.

All set in the morning at 5:30 am we started the journey. When we accumulated people it was almost 6:00 am. Looked like a perfect morning just because it had been quite some while when I had seen the DAWN.soon we were half the way picked up some breakfast. Suddenly it started becoming gloomy. We expected the day to be sunny and partly cloudy so everything seemed fine. But soon it started drizzling and then before we could reach the destination it started pouring. It seemed as somebody was following us and it was RAIN. We reached the destination. It had picked up the pace from where we had left. We were about to take the possession of the barge but everything seemed wet. so finally after a lot of contemplation and fear of the rain we dropped the plan. Even the weather now showed 2 days of rain. So there was no point in staying there. So we started the journey back. Came to a nearby place for barbecue. Grilled some food and were back in our room by 6. We had plans for couple of days but everything ended pretty soon. Just one of those eagerly anticipated weekend ending in exactly the opposite way. Still got one more day but I don't think am gonna go anywhere.

Busy Weekend

Its been quite sometime since i had been busy in the weekends. It seemed as if 48 hours of weekend seemed pretty less, which is always true.

Saturday pretty unusual of me getting up at 9. Well had to get up as I had to loook for a new apt. We found one and then had to finish up all the paper work.In the mean time a call from the office , asking me if I could come down for an hour. I mean when u r newbie u can never say nO . so said that I would finish my work by 2 and then come. But couldnt finish it by 4. In the mean time my buddies planned for a movie. I thought even i could get on with it. But no my BOSS felt my presence was necessary as if Iam gonna invent some new life saving software. had to go to work just for an hour rather 60 mins ......anyway some how finished my saturday . Sunday was again a day for some workout. Nice game of cricket. came home again by 7 afer one more win Thanks to the wind which helped us swing the ball and win the match. Body was tired but got a call from my frnd. The call was for a movie and I never say NO. so went for IRON MAN. Ok movie the SUPERHERO kind. Then had a nice dinner thats it couldnt eep my eyes open after all the Hard work. And before I could sleep the cell phone started cribbing... calling me for work dont know when is my LIFE GONNA CALL........

new lappy

Finally after almost 2 months or so I have got a new laptop. the old one broke about 2 and half months and I felt as if it stopped me from doing many things. And suddenly I see myself online all through the day having really not a whole lot to do except reading all blogs and downloading some songs.I guess it has become a kind of necessity. So will keep my fingers crossed and hope it works fine for along time and you guys will seem posting more often in blogggggersville....

my chance

yep after being dropped I got a chance to play. I was in the playing eleven and my name in the eleventh player. So it was saturday morning we elected to bowl and surprisingly they gave me the bowl and my first over was pretty good. A maiden to start off. But I didnt have a great day in the field. I DROPPED 3 catches, 1 in the deep and 2 of my own bowling. Then came our batting . We needed 236 runs of 45 overs in a relatively small ground. Our batting started of ok but we lost our first wicket early in the 20s but soon we were 65/3 in 10 overs. Then I entered the pitch not pitch was a MAT to be more precise. Opened my account with couple with a cover drive not nicely timed but good enough to open m account. The second over was a eventful one. I guess was my 6th ball came in with a pretty decent bounce crashed onto my chest. Hurt me real bad but didnt make to fuss abt it then. Then we lost one more wicket of our main batsman who won us the last match. Most of the people lost hope. Then me and the next batsmen build the innings and we had a partnership of 101. In the process i got 2 more blows on my right thigh. Pretty unusual for a right hand bat. Any way I got out when we needed 60 runs of abt 90 balls. Got out to a very bad delivery a slow full toss. but I thought i had rescued the team and brought close to the victory. So it was a nice rebuilding innings with 5 fours. at the end it boiled down to 17 runs of 6 overs and our last pair. well it was real close encounter and finally we won.with about 11 more balls to spare. a close finish.
Alls well that ends well. Everything went well had a nice sleep to realize in the morning that I had the BALL prints in my chest and my thighs. looked like a freaking TATOO with red and green color.Was paining like hell seemed as if the blood had clotted there. Hope things will be back to normal next week and I guess i have cemented my place for at least 2 games after the one yesterday.

One week later We have a League coming up and I am dropped out . SObbbbbbbbbbb. Can't remember when I was dropped out of a team. Every dog has to warm his ass in the bench and this time its the MADRASi ............

crazy post

This post is divided into 3 essential parts. The first one starts with the aim, the second is called "the randomn" , the third is called the "request".

Aim: The sole aim of this post is to trying to fail to communicate the randomn thoughts that is going through my mind at this point of time. I have tried real hard to say the things that I have been thinking till date. It is not just thoughts that have been accumulated in my mind over a period of time but is a collection of iamginations , thoughts and the appropriate word that iam unable to communicate in this sentence.


randomn: time 3:55 am when i started this post . day sunday april 6 ,2008. I went to my sleeping place at abt 1:00 am.i was trying to sleep when this happened. This is to make me realise that I have done something which I would like to see and remember that it was done by me and inturn et reponse from as many people as possible to see if this happens to them as well. Ths set of waord in the entire post might or might not make sense. I have plenty of things going on in my mind but i feel that iam not acting the way in which i should be doing which might not essnetially be true.I have many things that I think of becoming , achieving , being and wot not. while writing this post I have made an sinciere attempt to not go back and read so that i could correct myself.All this might or might not sound wierd or may be some other word which iam trying to find out or rather know or might not know or wotever it is that dosnt make any sense. while writing this I feel some people might have already stopped reading this message or started laughing or that word. Iam trying not to comprehend that word by any VARIABLE so that it cannot be comprehended. few people might think that this is all beause of excessive strain may be coding , tension .Pressure or wotever. I feel at thois point that i have wasted too many lines which could be true or can be false. Its a humble request that you read the entire post if you have reached until this point. I have this feeling that i have lost my way in life. all the statements can be right , wrng or all the possible outcomes that a statement or an undefined thing can be. I am deviating. Iam trying to focus on my problems but when i try telling it to anyone I feel Iam deviating from it by giving some sort of an explanation that Iam not insane.I eel I can handle my own things but this post might suggest the other way. Until this point I have wriiten only the smallest imaginable part of thoughts that wnet through my mind.This is getting really difficult not to communicate with typing the set of alphabets of charecters which make sense. The slast stament was deleted. yes coming back to my problems I need to do a lot of things. There were plenty but i cant rmemeber even a single one. At this point of time I feel Iam might be wasting time of many people who might be pissed off on me. So i genuinely feel that I need to stop typing the set of symbols that i have been typing. I have been typing what came into my mind without or may be with a kind of response that I expect.I know a few repsonses that will come out as comments which is requested from every reader in the next section .1) I think too much 2) Iam crazy 3) Iam trying to foolyou guys 4) iam trying to be too smart %)wasting time alana phalana I have tried not use any abusive language and if anyof the utyped or mistyped word is interpretated wrongly then its not my responsibiltity . Iam not rtying to be to good or mocking or .... fiscjmasndas,mancnc,zncdsjfldsfhsaln djndjcjdbjdsalbvadsljvhashf i hope that makes sense.I have written abt 1000 posts or taken n oaths or made x resolution but things seem to go in its way the other morning. I just get on with the things that are the most important ones. A simple example is that I need to get my license but I never try to make an sinciere attempt in doing that but I am writing this post at this time. Is omething really wrong with me or is it wot is called being abnormally normal or genunel normal. while writing this I also feel embaracedas well as proud as wellas ashamed as well wotever could be felt.cant do it more randomn is also a defined word cant write anything can I


request: Its a humble request that anyone who reads this message, to pass it on to as many frnds as they know and write in as many comments as possible.The comments could be anything and everything any abusive language any praises or any blank messages or anything that one cna think of but make sure that its all different. It would surely give me that many posiibilities as a solution to my problem. There is no right or wrong answer but every thing is a solution. I know or may not exactly know what is going through your mind after you have reached this word but this is a very genuine attempt to know if it happens to everyone and do most of them keep it to themselves. I have had ideas of keeping the randomn block defining everything and anything by keeping it blank but again that seemed to evident that I knew wot i wanted so i typed in what popped to my mind. At this point you might feel that I was trying to waste your time and if i did so I apologize.

APOLOGY: I am sorry if I really failed in conveying what I did. But I feel That everything has to end. So stopping it rite here. I assure you that this is will the last post of this kind. But the request is still a genuine one.


Now I feel iam really tired and might go to sleep soon. If I dont I wouldnt post anything because I dont know what am I supposed to type.time 4:34 am need to go to play at 8 WILL i get up ??? AM i gonna get some sleep?

Yeah Blog rafi ke naam

yeah I was thinking of posting this blog just to update and know any of the songs that I might have missed. I am real big fan of the HINDI singer rafi anf I just love his voice and generally sleep hearing his voice. He started his career singing and emulating a few singers but soon developed his own style of singing.

my all time fav rafi song is

1> Zindagi bhar nahi bhulegi woh barsaat ki raat
2> kabhi khud pe kabhi halaat pe rona aaya
3> Abhi na jao chodkar ke dil abhi bahara nahi .
It would be great if you guys can add to this list and add 3 of ur fav rafi songs.

Mission Peak

Yes people this was the adventurous weekend in a long long time. Wasn't really an adventure but was real fun. Saturday morning we planned to start in the mroning by 6:00 am. But its been aeons since I woke up early. SO we started the hiking in the morning at 7:00 am. we were 5 of us. The start was real dreadful. We climbed up about 100, no may be 300 rather may be 400 feeet and suddenly my eyes started closing by itself. I said to the guys around me that I was feeling sleepy. They started laughging and everyone thought that I was also kidding But later I realised that I was feeling dizzy and I came down to a halt. Suddenly I started puking. But I didnt eat anything so wasnt realing puking stuffs.Yeah a dreadful start. We didnt even climb 100 sorry 400 feet and there was talk of going back.
But we had some real char including me so we started back and we climbed then for abt 2.5 hrs. yeah ofcourse I had to eat some Britannia cream biscuits and a banana. SO finally we reached the top of the hill MISSION PEAK.It was about 2525 feets above. but the start really made me feel that I am getting old and I wasnt the same young boy who always used to jump around and keep playing. Moreover Iam not a regular guy who hits the gym everyday. Not too much of test of my stamina and empty stomach to add to it. All the above statements are to make u guys feel that I am not really that WEAK and it is becuase of all the above reasons that I fainted I mean ALMOST fainted.
Well anyway we had made upto the top. I am not man of heights. It took me abt a month to look down through my balcony. Ofcoure that was on 7th floor and the window was as big as open balcony.Just to give u idea of how scared was I of heights. It was now time to get down and it was pretty steep not exactly steep but good enough to make me walk on four legs.Soon I was up on 2. But was taking the baby steps , reminded me of Govinda from DEEWANA MASTANA. Soon it was fine and I made finally back to the bottam SAFELY. A little bit of pain in the legs was common for everyone and I was not different. SO it was abt 6 miles in all and 2525 feets up and back. A decent excercise for me after a long longtime. So finally after a little wobble in the start we Made the MISSION PEAK possible. I guess now iam tired and ready to be flat on my bed.Will post How early do I get up on SUnday.

2003 nights

well seems to be a retro blog. Cant stop remembering the nights spent in bangalore. I used to stay at a place called sadanand layout ... near baypannhalli. And my frnds used to stay at micheal palaya.All typical names. Those were the days when the market used to be down and real low. And I remeber we going to drop of resumes in big companies like the T.Is and many more. The famous recession period when jobs were hard to comeby. Well to be more precise again it was the time when I graduated.
Well evenings we used to roam about in CMH road.One of the happening places in bangalore after the MG road. Comeback and have dinner a dhaba on open terrace was surely one of the attraction. And after a heavy dinner browse a lil bit in a cyober cafe.I mean there was this craze of chatting . So after Dinner it was time for some typical chat frnds . After that we used to sit by the road sipping these fruit juices.I mean these were real good and my all time fav was the pineapple.Beer would have sounded a bit Filmy.But then finally it was time to walk back home. On our way back was a secluded place which used to be dark and there was this rumour of GAY rapists who used to hunt i the night times. And we had heard all kind of stories about them.I along with my frnd were not exactly scared of walking through that small phase(BRAVE boys) but often we used to be tired after a long evening. The other option was auto which was pretty difficult to find and was prety expensive for daily commute. So we used to walk back most of the time which was proabably the worst part. It used to be real fun through out the evening but walking back most of the times was a real pain. Again the next day we would do the same thing knowing that walking back is gonna be a pain.But only that last 30 mins for all the fun we used to have through out the day seemed to be a good bargain.

Reunion time

yeah it seems like my old days are almost coming back. It was in 2003 feb when I had been out fo my house and met a few chaps in bangalore. We had loads of fun for almost 8 months. Now now abt 3 years later Iam meeting one by one and seems kind of a reunion. I dont know if you guys had read my posts. I met one more guy from that phase of my life. The Thinnest guy of our group. who always used to make me feel stronger and healthier.
I guess this weekend is going to be eventful as the saturday has already been.

The real weekend

Yep finally the weekend is round the corner. It is really great to sweat and have a filling stomach at the end of the day rather than having a filled stomach through out the day.Finally I have started working after lots of waiting and too many obstacles. Not thoroughly in a satisfying way but Things have finally moved, hope in the right direction.
The guy who used to be yelling and screaming all day had to keep mum for 8 hours everyday and that 2, 5 days in a row. And it seemed like a nice start already as my roomie had made some aloo parathas dipped in GHEE thanks to my effort. It was really fantastic to see me getting a move on. Well I know its soon gonna be tiring and I am gonna be scared of mondays yet again. The days of liberty seems to have stopped for a while.But the kind of work that I always wanted to do seems to be eluding from me for the 2nd time in my life. Some things are really not destined for you but you need to make your choices and move on. Lets see if I find those kind of job lying around in the near future. Yes Nice week not too much to do, being the first week. Lets see how the river flows from now on.

randomn TAG

Solitaire tagged and wants me to write down 7 random things about myself. I think its gonna be real tough.

1) Whenever I walk alone I make sure I don't step on the edges of a tile. Try to place my legs inside the tile. Well if its too small then I ignore it. But I do it quite often and when the Tiles are big enough.

2)I do like to sleep with my headphones playing my favourite songs .

3)Once everymonth I try to look if there is any video of the old cricket matches in which azza played.

4)I do sing pretty loud when I am having shower. I have got complaints from people staying in the apartment above me.

5)I can spend 20 hours of a day sleeping.

6)I cannot drink white MILK. I mean I need to change its color may be add some coffee, cocao or soemthing to be edible. In short Iam very picky about the food I eat.

7)I Like being in all the photos that are being clicked around me.

Well writing 7 things was really difficult> I could not remeber anythig other than what I like eating and drinking.As a rule I have to tag 7 people and they are
1)anjuli
2)ashu
3)cindrella
4)divya
5)vandita
6)Mez
7)elusive

Old times

Often with our busy lives, present torubles and tension, we tend to forget the amount of fun we had in our old times. We tend to forget some buddies who were pretty close. I mean not exactly forget but you dont share the same amount of closeness that you shared may be about 7 years ago or rather at that time. And when suddenly you see a old page of your life ,you really tend to remember the old days as if you see in the flashback of the movie. The days you spent together. The long chats along the railway stations. The common friends, the hot chicks , the famous gossip stories, the happening things, The typical accent of few people, The fights, The brawls, the altercation, the struggle, the endless nights in the street, the gurkhas, the professors and many more. I mean it reminds you of many more people whom we met in our lives and all the chars come alive.
yeah I met one of my frnd here. We first met abt 5-6 years back In bangalore. When we finished out bachelors and came in for doing a course in CDAC. Well it was a class of just 12 students and we really had one of the best time of our lives. I mean it was for the first time away for me from my house. I mean you always feel a free bird when you stay away for the first time. being a small class we all shared a nice relationship. To start off things were slow just because people were from different parts and were more typical chars from those locations.And I have this bad habit of talking in different tones with different people. I mean we always used to tease such guys and I always had a companion from my college to help me out. I mean the class strength was like this : WE 2 mumbaikar....2 Madrasis from chennai ...1 malyali from THIRUVANANTHAPURAM, 1 andhrite, 1 from kanpur, 1 madrasi from all over north india, one from orissa, one bihari who did his bachelors from bangalore, 1 from bangalore, 1 from kanpur, 1 from udaipur, 1 from bhopal MP. I mean it was a total national integration program. I tell you this was total fun. I still remember this guy from MP. His name was Bajpayee i mean gaurav bajpayee I used to call him bajpayee. As most of them were from different parts of India we used to communicate in english. ANd the first time we met this guy...this guy is like "Do you guys know Hindi". Obviously we did and he was so relived. And started teling that he was really very sad as he had been in bangalore for almost 2 weeks and hasnt spoke in Hindi and was very happy seeing us. This guy was real good in Hindi. obviously being from somewhere near Bhopal. He used to write kavithas. and real good ones.
the second group were the guys from CHENNAi. Obviously they didnt know Hindi and spoke in ENGLISHHH. and were very tyical with their Wot da stuff?? one was a real tirkeee and the other was very softspoken. was a real fun when these guys used to talk with bajpayee saab. and these guys were worried abt the campus placements and stuff from the very first day.
then comes this short "CHAPTER" guy from orissa. Was always stuck to his mobile when we met him. He had his typical way of talking Hindi with using B instead of V and many more such fiasco pronounciation. He was the most lively in our group. Was a fun guy to be around with.
Then There was this guy from Udaipur. I mean he was thinner than me which made me very happy. hardly opened his mouth. Was pretty silent most of the time. He always used to be stuck to his computer. He really used to work abt 3 times of wot we did. Was a very intresting guy. Then the one from bihar. I guess he was the smartest of the lot .He was really sharp in the class and even outside the class. He was the one who was proabably the one who got all of the people together.
Then there were a few girls from Delhi, banglaore and andhra. I remeber making fun of the andhraite girl when she used the word LAW, She used to say it LA...was real fun.
the guy from kearla was the funniest to be around . I mean damn patient, typical MALLU, and a real cool headed guy.
the guy I met here today was the madrasi from all over north. His father was in mlitary so had to move a lot of places and he had a typical delhi accent. I mean he was pretty uncoventional in the ways he used work out the problems. But he was pretty smart. He always had a very different way of solving things.
Met him after a long time and the memories came alive. I mean the course was only for 6 months But we guys had so much fun that we stayed there for 9 months and then we came to mumbai again with most of them and had fun there as well. I guess I was a erratic kind of guy. Not too much impetus on career and things like that. But Things were going pretty well for me at that time. Now Things are different all of them are in different parts of the world. I guess Iam stuck up here . yeps I guess will end this blog. This looks my biggest blog. Was really rejuvenating seeing my old buddy thought will share with my latest blogging budddies..............

A different role

We go through different phases of our life. I guess I am into an unfamilair phase as well. What do I do all day ? A worth less question. I just Kill time. I mean the day still seems very short and night even shorter. For about a week i havent been doing anything. Its not beacasue its snowing or something. For that matter it doesn't snow here. Nor is it raining cats and dogs neither is it burning the sand outside. Just that lack of motivation.
My day could start anytime starting from 9:00 am to may be even 2:00 PM. Well I got nothing to do so I wake up when my body starts paining. Fair deal I guess.Sleeping should relax your body. Then I make sure I drink something just to make me realise that I have woke up. Before I get up My roomie is off to work.Cooking for yourself doesn't always motivate you and that too when you have many fast food options. By the time you have shower and make your lunch its almost 5:00 PM.With T.V and Laptop time Hours pass pretty quickly. Once you get a feel of being awake its almost 7:00. Then I along with my roomie go out for some grocery shopping.Seems like House wife who sits all day doing literally nothing until evening when she sees a little bit of the world and may be the life moving at a faster pace. Anyway when I get back its dinner and a movie to finish of the fanatastic day. The day seems pretty short.Where do I fit in anything else?????????
Today was exactly the same except I tried a little bit of cooking. Had the Atta for chapati. So tried making chapati for the first time. A change from the ready to eat paratha aand tortilla. Was not easy. I never thought it would be that difficult not exaclty difficult but rather a pain, Its really is tough to get the chapatti ROUND. Does shape really matter. Surely not when I am cooking.So finally made some very thing rotlas and a few fat ROTIS. Both were awesome with alittle bit of compromise in shape. Learnt making amoebic shaped chapatti ...Hurray was real good with some finely chopped poatato fried sabji. Feels like an achievement for the day.Well it really is.....

My saturday

Whenever I feel I have wasted my day.I feel the need to tell it to somebody. And when I tell it to somebody I don't want him/her to give me a lecture nor would I want him/her to encourage me. So this is not exactly a sincere confession nor is this some sort of achievement. It is not feeling TOOOOO guilty nor does it give me satisfaction. I call it a BLOG.
Had seen my country win at perth. Was very happy but didnt feel that excitement.My Saturday had already started. It was 2:00 AM when i started to close my eyes. Slept well as if I had struggled through out the week working. Well doesnt matter a human needs 6-8 hours of sleep and Iam a big hearted man . I always take the highest rounding number. 2+ 8= 12 . My math isn't good as well.So my eyes again opened at 12 PM . I think good enough sleep. Anyway I had already missed half of my day. Before I could start doing something I started off a movie "The Seeker" rising of the dark . So saw the movie. Even if you dont do anything constructive your stomach doesnt know that it starts ringing when it feels it is empty. So i along with my frnd went down to eat. We went into a fast food center. It seemed as if I was in chennai. So felt like eating some chennai food. the call from my stomach was of GOTHU paratha. After a heavy stomach u always feel dizzy but I had wasted half of my day Sleeping so didnt want to sleep. So wot are my options. Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.............movie...this time it was The MAN. It was nice comedy movie. Well once I was done watching what next. I felt I was watching too many English movies. Now it was time for some Hindi movie. I was just looking around and I found this shahid kapooor movie CHup chup ke. Watched that one as well. It was almost 7:30 when the movie ended. I really felt something bad about this so I got up and went for a Shower and i along with my friend went for strolling. We reached a chat house then it was about 8:45 so heard some sounds from my Stomach again. So had some Combo #1. The food tasted like some dhaba food. Roti , paneer mattar, shimla mirchi aloo with daal, raitha, papad, kheer and chas to finish it.Then went to some supermarket to get some stuff for my friend. Was getting just a little bit cold. As i was walking I saw COLD STONE. Reminded me of my old days when I used to hang out in the night eating Malai kulfi. Couldn't get that but some ice cream seemed a decent compensation. I come back what now. So can you believe I sat down for watching one more movie halla bol. making it four in a day. This is not the first time. I think Sunday has started and its again 2:00 am can't stay awake. Had to make myself realize that this aint the thing I need to do. But what can a dry leaf fallen from the tree into the river do.....flow with the river.....

India wins

Yes iNDIA has pulled of a blinder where everyone counted us out. Good team performance. Agressive mind set rather a positive mindset gives Indians the much needed win and as I wanted we have defeated the Australians in one of the fastest wickets. It was amazing to see Indian seamers operating better than ever. They really swinged the ball. Pathan starting to show some signs of comeback but needs to do it consistenetly to establish himself as one of the top allrounders. Promising of all was the young lad ISHANT sharma suddenly ishant sounds a famous name and hope the lad just grows in stature as a bowler.Again a important match for Sehwag who came good and should be a part of Indian team.We have a nice bench of new youngsters who can take up from the big threes at the moment and in all forms of cricket. I guess Sehwag, gambhir, pathan, uthappa, rohit sharma,yuvraj,Dhoni, harbhajan, ishant,r p singh,zaheer, dinesh karthik. Dont be surprised if you see this team in the next couple of years.Lets celebrate tonight and thrash the australians once more in adelaide to show that we are THE TEAM. ALL the best champs.

Who am I ??? why am I ???

Well the question that keeps haunting most people is "WHO AM I ?". What is my purpose? where am I?? Why am I??? and WHY me ??
Many people find the answer for these questions from different sources. Few people find it through religion. Few of them say that life is a mean or medium of achieving some eternal happiness.Some say a way of salvation .Some consider it as an opportunity to serve their people few say serving the mankind and few people may say serving themselves and few would say to enjoy and have fun. Some people say To set an example , few of them say to follow their LORD their IDOL. I-robot a movie says even the robots are created for some purpose. Each Robot even identifies that it has its own purpose and strive achieving that. But most of them have an justification good enough to keep doing it few of them may convince you as well but nothing as convinced me so far.

It does trouble me at times. I try finding the answer for these questions. why do I do some things? Some with reasoning and some without any specific reason.Some things automatically happens even if don't think about it and few of them never happens even if I try hard. Do I really know what I want in life and is all my deed justified. Is it the right way. Am i doing the thing intended for me and many such questions.Am I just going to live like most other and perish. I start thinking about it before it really gets dark laying on my sleeping bed when I haven't done anything all through the day and I finally submerge into it(darkness) completely.Time stops. I don't feel anything. Nothing then seems right nothing wrong. Nothing I love seems deserted nothing I hate embraces me. No pain No happiness. No sadness. Nothing cold Nothing Hot.Nothing bright nothing light . Nothing red nor blue neither green. Nothing beautiful nothing ugly.Nothing too loud nothing as in silence.Seems like everything and yet nothing. All words seems meaningless until something suddenly creeps into me to make me realize that I still exist.Once I recollect myself I get on with it follow some daily ablutions and Do things as if these were the things meant for me and keep on doing it don't know why? Until again in the mind these question arise just before I jump into my sleep.

India Loses ...

It really hurts when you watch cricket for 6 straight hours unmoved and the country who you support loses. I don't remember when i last saw test match so keenly. Didn't move even a inch , didn't miss a single ball. even took my rest room breaks in the drinks time. Was really sweating because of the pressure. My fists were tightly closed as if I had the bats. My hands sweating as if they were inside the gloves. But I couldnt do anything. Had to watch my country go down. WE couldnt manage a draw. We lost to the aussies yet again. I watched the match just because I didn't want the Australian to win the 16th test in a row. and my watching and my support didnt help a wee bit.
Well the day started with a little hopes of India Winning well practically I never thought we were gonna win but we had an outside cahnce if we got quicke wickets. It was fabulous piece of cricket by the Australians and as usual the Indian lacked the firepower in the bowling dept. The highlight of the australian was MR Cricket and the Power House symonds. Well most of the commentators thought that Ponting was a little bit late in declaring the australian innings. But at the end it turned out to be the perfect decision.India needed to play out 72 overs to aim for a draw and score 333 which was out of the question.
The Indian innings started with just 2 overs before lunch which is avery dodgy kind of situation for any opening batsmen and as expected WE SUCKED. The WALL and Jaffer opened. The wall took over the strike and got a single to expose the lanky mumbai batsmen. Brett Lee cleaned him up with a jaafer of a delivery, India One down before the battle begins.
After the lunch the Hyderbadi nawab laxman walks in with the wall to hold in for a while before the nawab perishes because of his lazy elegance. Could have got the front foot a little bit forward but the nawabs die elegantly. So comes the Little master. Plays well. Until the shrewd australians come up with a plan . They see him standing little down the crease. Standing down the crease helps negotiating a little bit of un even bounce in the pitch which was the reason for Our nawabs demise. The Mumbaikars are good in understanding these things. But the Pros are always a step ahead of the gully cricketers. Gilli comes close to the stumps forcing the little master to stand inside the crease. The masters tries to leave and play the ball outside the stump and the mean time the ball hits the edge of the bat and dismantles the furniture. The little master falls prey in the hands of the shrewd ponting and company.Well deserved wickets.
In walks the prince of Calcutta. plays like a prince with gorgeous cover drive and square cuts until the Tea time. So now australia needs 7 wickets and we need to negotiate with 42 overs.After Tea The power House symonds is introduced. dravid and the prince handle him easily until the ball which brushes the walls pad and is claimed as a catch by the australians. Umpire Buknor gets his tongue out and raises the FINGER that matters the most. The WALL had to return but manages a smile in disbelief. In comes YUVI. Plays the worst shot of his life. Needs a lot of talent for playing test cricket. he is a clean striker But Test cricket needs the application of such talents for a long period of time. Yuvi Disappoints. Then comes MY MAN DHONI. He tries is level best. We just need to negotiate the australians for 8 overs. Pads out the ball outside the offstump coming in . the finger goes up and suddenly I start losing faith. MY hands start sweating and there is suddenly a lot of pressure amongst the players and the spectators.
Kumble plays his heart out and lead the Indians from the front. In comes bhajji who starts of nicely until the man with the Golden arm or the PUP for the austrlian comes in. Michael Clarke. just 12 balls to spare. Australia needs 3 wickets and we need to hold the rusing australian for 12 balls. Kumble stands firm gets a single and now its the PAjis turn. and he hands out nicely to MR CRICKET and he doesnt drop many. India 8 down need to handle just 10 more balls. In comes RP singh tries to play football Insated of cricket Plays the penalty returns back. the last man only 9 balls to spare. Young Ishant sharma 19 years of age. brings the wrong pair of gloves in the pressure. PUP is on hatrick. Kumble on the other end standing all alone.Young Ishant blocks one. blocks one more until he too falls t the young clarke and WE loose. Spent My 6 hours. forget mine I really felt sorry for Kumble who nearly took blows all over the body. Cant blame anyone everybody played their part but Finally the asutralians win and start their celebreation. few Tears almost tried to sneak out of my eyes. But Control. iam really pissed offffff on the australians, didnt want them to win but they dont stop and I cant do anything other than feeling sorry for the Indians who really fought bravely especially The captain, DHoni .Sometimes Things dont work your way. Now We go to the WACA where we normally get screwed .australia 2-0 ahead and aiming for the world record of 17 staright test match wins.........Wot can I do...What can we do ...What can the Indian players do ............DESTINY rules....

first few things every new year

New year always brings new things, new aspirations new energy in everyones life and so it does in me as well. People make resolutions ,But I manage to do a few things always or rather have been doing so far every year

1) Well first and foremost I check out the astrology for that year obviously my star sign and especially if there are any specific good months, lucky numbers and not so good times rather tough months.
2) make sure I don't really get up early
3) Check the day of my birthday
4) Make sure I have a shower that day However late it may be
5) try to wish people until I feel that I have wished enough people
6) Make sure I don't quarrel with anyone
7) Of course talk to my parents
8) try to wish people in their mother tongue if I can.

I dont know y I do these things but i somehow manage to do and feel happy if I find my Birthday on a Sunday and if I see the months or days that i like in the lucky days. Nothing that it is going to matter much but i somehow end up doing these and I did this time as well

Taare zameen par

Two days before the New year bash, I along with my friends thought of watching a movie. So we stepped into a very dirty shabby looking place as we had not seen a Hindi Movie for a while. We had three options Om Shanti Om (which i had seen), Welcome and Taare zameen Par. We chose Taare Zameen par, thanks for that decision, anyway we saw Welcome the next night but repented on watching it.
Well taare zameen par is a master piece from AMMMMIR khan who over years has moulded himself into a artist of top notch. In this movie he has shown How talented he really is. I am a big fan of another star who is a fantastic artist and sets his own standard , Kamal hassan.But kamal screws himself by keeping most of the focus on himself and which at times doesn't give any room for other artist to play their part and thereby show how good he was in the time allotted. But this movie of aamir is nicely balanced with the first half being entirely allotted to the rest of the characters to show their talents and then the King shows up in the second half and shows his class and outplaying the rest.
I guess this movie doesn't have a great story line nor does it have the masala items to pull the crowd but AAmir has some how found the right balance of emotion, innocence and the right message through this movie which surely might have pulled a lot of crowd back home. He has picked the right kind of crew for the movie except the Kid who could have done a better role in the first half because most of his acting doesn't seem natural. People might differ and most of them did when i said this when i came out of the movie. A must watch movie for those who are gonna have a kid for themselves and the ones who are really struggling to cope up with their kids. Hats off to the mASter artist, Aammir .
