Friday night out is certainly one of the best ways to unwind after a really hectic weekend of coding and configurations and loads of documentation at office! Well this is not the first night outs which we had planned for, but certainly as of now this one would be the most memorable. Thanks to ak, shab, resh, amb, sanj and rags for just being themselves which makes it all the more fun, love you guys :)
The purpose of this post is something like a reminder post for me of course wherein after ages I would reminiscence the past and this would get all the nostalgic memories back :) So no detailing here! Over and out now!

The emptiness
Its an oft felt feeling by every software engineer, voidness, a feeling of being empty.
You are the envy of the older generation when it comes to your 'take home pay'. But do they realise how we feel, you cant leave your job and venture into taking risks coz there is a dependency on your pay. What is it that I'm doing here!? Whiling away years of my life, youthful years mind you, sitting in front of a wide screen monitor and doing stuff I really dont enjoy doing! whether I'm good at it or not is another issue. How long before I can get to do my own thing, I dont know what is my own thing, but how will I know if I do not get to try anything other than this so called 'soft ware engineering' b******t

Timeless
"If you wear something long enough, it becomes a part of you"
Reading this line brings puts me into a deep thought. Well, I could not, but I hope the significance of timelessness which was so lovingly bought has become a part of you.

Goan Holiday is On..
The holiday to Goa is on! Just a few more hours to go. I would not believe its happening until we hit the beautiful Goa beaches, considering the fact that the uncertainty of this holiday has been well a lot uncertain:P
Got to rush now, have a zillion things to take care of in office. Every holiday I go, I have this thought somewhere at the back of my mind, a wishful thought, that always lingers on throughout the vacation. This vacation that wish is coming true, hope that it turns out to be a truly amazing experience.
Cheers to Goa!

2008.. Its time to reminiscence
31st of Dec '08, something around 16:00 hrs and I'm still in office! Do not want to work, want to get home, so that I can get to the party sooner :) Yea baby, its party time, with college friends to welcome the new year, a school friend of mine is coming along, what better could I ask for! Now that there are few more hours before I can abscond from this place, so I'm letting my mind wander and my fingers punch away the keyboard, talk about productiveness at office.. lolz...
This year zoomed away at break neck speed. I can still remember last year this time, which seems like it happened a week back! Nothing very significant happened this year, but then of course lots and lots of changes, like my make over (:P), some very good times spent, lot of bonding, new friendships. In general it has been a happy year to sum it up. The not so good things would be depressing mood spells, still trying to let go of the past completely, yet to start to forgive and forget(wonder if that would ever happen) but these are quite trivial I must say. Lets see how much of the past year I can write up here...
There was the trip to wales in March, nothing much to write about the trip, it was a casual one with a huge gang (some 20 people), some excitement over light snowfall, the not so amazing snowdonia, played paintball for the first time and that's about it.
The next one was a dream destination till visited, Switzerland in May. The alps! It really humbled me. I love the Matterhorn peak. Gonergrat, Jungfraujoch, Interlaken, Zurich, Bern, Titlis, Lauterbrunnen, Grindelwald, Lucerne, all these names no longer remained only on geography text books, but it came live, been there done that types :P How can I not mention spending the night at the Zurich airport lolz. An amazing trip with some amazing people.
London was my home for the first half of 2008, and I really must say I loved the experience. I love the people I met there. I used to gym quite regularly and the club I used to go had some wonderful people, Debbie, Lisa, and two others, their names seem to have slipped off my mind, who were the instructors there, then my gym mates, oh gosh I really have a bad memory, will update the names when I remember! It was a nice experience :) And yea I give myself credit for being a good roommate too :)It was fun travelling in the tubes, visiting places, shopping, walking etc.
Returned back home in June. Left London forever, at least for a good few years. Made a short trip to Pune. Then a slightly longer one to Hyderabad on official work. Made a couple of good friends. The joy and happiness continued. Oh yea it almost slipped of my mind, my eventful return trip to India, how could I not mention(*Sarcastic frown*) Well, the return was rigged in a way that I would have a short stop over at Delhi. The reasons well, I'm not putting it in writing here! There came misery along with the stopover. Talk about in sensitiveness. I'll reserve that for another post, don't want to damper the joyous spirit of the moment.
Returned from Hyderabad to park myself back at home, and then it has been the same routine, living in the present, everyday incidents and all that. The incidents mentioned in the previous posts had me turning crazy for some two days. The year ends slowly with a friend of mine tying the knot to her sweetheart, I end up breaking a few strong resolutions due to internal and external forces, the walls are broken again, which I'm hoping to rebuild quickly and much more strongly. I get to have steaming idlis and crunchy vadas for breakfast since I've moved to Ecity for work. A colleague turned friend is becoming a close confidante.
And then there is today, the 31st of Dec, Have had this day all to myself, most of my friends/colleagues are holidaying so I have been vacationing at office since morning in denim, tee and floaters. Killing time by taking a stroll, checking out the book store, writing this blog :P Had some yummy and spicy fish curry for lunch, karabath kesari bath combo for breakfast, black tea without sugar a few minutes ago. Yippee just another hour to go before my bus can take off :) Will go for another stroll now :)
Cheers to the New year eve! :) Ciao in 2009.
Love and peace.
