Its almost quarter to 4 and i am just a little behind of work but the kind of start i had today morning it seemed as if i would have been a endless day. As i had anticipated a hectic day nothing really happened that way in fact it was a total chaos today morning. All the planning we had everything went in vain things were just not moving according to plan seemed like everything was to happen today.
Name it and it happened today out of the blue the mail server was not working today due to some congestion it was stuck the work that had to be distributed was taking time to reach peoples inbox . i really cant count how many people i spoke to today morning everything was coming my way at the fastest way it could and all i was doing was trying to duck without any guards on.For the first few hours all i was doing was locating who is sitting where i just didn't sit in my seat at all i had to convince a few people to sit somewhere around me so that me and my team could help them in the work. And the tantrums they have thrown back at me i felt like just moving out from there and head straight home switch off my cell phone and go off to sleep. Not to forget one of my colleague called up and said she was still out of station and would not make it on time and it would be good if someone could cover up for her work. And then i had another task to look for someone who can work on her behalf believe me that is not easy even if Paris Hilton was here at the most she would get a stare and the end result is NO. Some how i convinced someone but that was not easy and the carrot that i gave him to do the job i really cant write it here. Some how i thought i was done with all the troubles when i was informed that one of the researchers was given a wrong project and i had to spend time explaining her again what was her new assignment. Just then two of my friends came to my rescue they took up a few things and i was really happy to get burden off my shoulder.
Never the less in between when i was working i was hindered a number of times and i have this special case in my team she is unique she was in uk for 1 year and she is back here in India for the past 4 years and Guess what ???? she still carries a Brit accent. English i can somehow understand but her Hindi also has a accent Unreal. Whenever i use to get up from my seat to assist someone from the corner of my eye i could see her staring at me because of her i had to go to the wash room twice to check if my fly is open or is there something wrong with my clothes which she can see but i cant. Somehow i feel she had a alarm clock which the moment rings after every one hour she would ask me questions " Who is working on XYZ account " or "Has XYZ left" and she was not helping all she was doing was instigating and i was controlling myself not to say anything to her when my TL is not there or else she would think i took an undue advantage of that. In between i even asked her if she could spend sometime on a particular account where she said NO NO she has two much of work besides gossiping staring at the trees out side and smiling to her own self she had other things to take care of too.
ONE unique quality she has which i think i should should mention is every morning she would sit in her seat and before she can even check her inbox she would open her Vaseline barrel ( me and my friends call it a barrel cause i have never seen a container bigger than that.) and apply it on her hands and legs and then she would start working be it summer winter or rainy season the cream has to be applied first and god forbid if someone touches that barrel i am sure he/she would get scratch marks with her pointed nails.
Anyways i have lost my strength now and and all i can do now is head home have my dinner and sleep.

"............................. Life in General"
Hello Everyone
I think i am loosing the excitement i had the first day when i started writing this blog. These days i am getting really moody my mood swings in every possible direction at times my friends really get scared talking to me.
Very Soon you going to see a re vamped blog, one of my very good friends is helping me out she has been blogging for quite sometime now so she plans to help me out usually her schedule is very busy but i think she will spare sometime for me. And Laziness also plays a major role there.
Anyways these days nothing much is happening at my end work is going on as usual there is not much happening socially too same old friends same lame life i need a break a big break. The coming week is again going to he hectic with a few people on leave the burden has to be shared by the others and plus i already have taken my share of leaves so i don't see any way out. Like i have mentioned earlier there are a few senior people in the team but they hardly care and when it comes to saying NO i really cant utter it out. But i am sure there is a bright side to it too.
Its been ages i have been out of Poona besides a few places close to the area i haven been elsewhere i don't even remember how a train looks like. One of my cousin sister she is married and her husband being in the army has been posted to Mumbai almost 3 years back and since the time she is here she has been asking me to come down. Darn i couldn't even travel 4 hrs to meet her every time she asks me to come to Mumbai i make big time plans and assure her that i would be there, the entire week i am very enthusiastic but some how the day i have to leave something or the other pops up and i cant make it. And it has come to this that her husband has been posted out of Mumbai but i still assured her that i would make it to the new place.
Just a few days back a friend asked me to come to Hyderabad it would be a good change for me as in people climate just about everything. And i could not help laughing, here i could not make it to Mumbai Hyderabad is really faaaaaaaaaaaaar. She even said that she would book my tickets and send them or else i would never make an effort to do so. And all i could do id assure her that i woud be there after say उम्मीद पे दुनिया कायम हैं !
And i really dont know if i am moody or Simply lazy !
So that it for now !

Rains Are Here !!!!!!!!!
HELLO
Yes i am back in my pleasant mood and i owe it to the rains as well as the past weekend i had.To start with as i had updated in my earlier post i had been for River Rafting to this place close to Pune called Kundalika (Mulshi) well the place itself is adorable and full of lush green trees that seem so fresh they enrich you from within.
For the first time in my entire life i have ever seen everyone coming on time. We had hired a bus to be there and after picking up everyone from various points we left Pune at around 6ish. The road to Mulshi was amazing it was drizzling nice weather the scenery was breath taking fog surrounding the mountains and small creeks making their way out of the rocks was sight i could not miss. It was a perfect getaway the air that you breath was so different then what you breath in the city you could easily feel the difference and feel how miserably bad and polluted the air is in the city is. At times when everything else is right you just don't have the right company but here we had a bunch of enthusiastic's and the moment we boarded the bus we all started gelling up well. The entire journey to Kundalika i was standing near the door enjoying the rains and admiring Gods creation that he is best at. And its sad that during the journey i noticed a lot of cottages small bungalows built in the midst of the dense trees somehow i felt that few selfish people have built structures destroying the most precious natural beauty. I think these people are under the influence that they can build something more beautiful and precious than mother nature sad ...........
Anyways i was dying to get in the water and once we reached the destination we got our rafting gear and some tips from the experts about the safety measures. We even practiced a few commands given by our guide who was going to accompany us throughout. Towards the start it was all good we were just getting accustomed to row in a particular pattern the flow of water was steady and moving. But all of a sudden everyone could see the main stream that we were going to join in a few moments and it was hair raising as the flow of water was fast and gushing from everywhere most of us didn't know what to expect. As soon we joined in all of a sudden our raft started moving at a rapid speed our guide was directing us to keep the raft straight we had put in all of our efforts the raft moved in every possible direction but after a while we got in full control. The rest of the journey was a experience of a lifetime the ups and down bumps we manged to get through everything there were a few moments i enjoyed throughly when the water came in from all the sides at times i was about to fall but the rope kept handy.
Towards the end of the 14 Km stretch which took us about 3 hrs to complete we were allowed to jump in the water and before our guide could give us the green signal i was already in happily swimming my way with the raft. After a while when everyone was contented we got back in the raft with one last stunt left and we toppled the entire raft it was fun. At last we all came to the shore and gave three cheers to our guide.
The entire episode was a complete package there was thrill excitement fun chaos fear just about everything, in those three hours i experience something which would have taken me years to do so. And its a once in a lifetime fun which i recommend everyone to go through once. We spend hours together in theaters to see something that is unreal and here is opportunity you should not miss.
On Sunday i just could not help myself telling people what i had experienced every person i met i was on with my tales.
Now i am really looking forward to a trek with more adventure (valley crossing, rappelling) because that it is next on my checklist " Thing i want to do before i get married"
See you soon

INFLATION !!!!!!!!
Hey Everyone
Well blogging is all new to me and i am very much excited about it so you would find a post from me almost everyday till i get fed up.
Anyways today morning when i got up and was up at my window looking at the sky to predict if its going to rain. I saw this man carrying his young son on his shoulders he seem to be in a hurry i think he was in a hurry to catch a bus or some other transport . And one thought came to my mind all the while i was driving to office and even at work i thought to myself all these days one thing that is stuck on every news channel is the rising Petrol prices . When for people like us that withdraw a considerable amount of paycheck and still crib about the rising oil prices.What do we expect of the under payed workers that find it difficult to make ends meet. Even they have some dreams when would they full fill them? And with rising prices i think for them dreams would be something that they could only think off and wait for miracle.
But that is not all is the rising oil price the reason for inflation i really don't believe what the government has to say. Facts figures business journals gurus whatever all have to say i think WE are the reason for the inflation. Just last week when the news was out that the government is going to hike petrol prices one of friend was cribbing of how difficult life is going to be in the near future, and what his kids would do how much they would have to struggle to see a better tomorrow. And i asked him a simple question does he crib when the multiplex hikes the rate of a blockbuster movie? does he avoid going out for a movie even when the rates are sky high and sometimes when his children demand he even buys tickets in black. And he was speechless without a though he picked up a notepad and started to write his daily expenses he could cut on.
Most of us including me go out to lavish restaurants to have food which hardly cost one fourth of the bill amount but we really don't give it a second thought all we do is reach out to the pocket pull out a flashing card slid it over and the rest is taken care off. Ultimately we are happy, a meal in a fancy restaurant no need to carry cash just a signature does it all friends thank you for such a lovely meal. You go home with a big broad smile and even if you didn't like the food you still should feel light at heart after all the money you have shelled out its Priceless.....
So who is to be blamed even if we want to buy luxurious apartments with empty bedrooms because there are few people in house. Its surely not me i am paying a big fat amount for it and i can afford it plus my parents get to boost in front of other relatives too.What wrong even if i buy a luxury sedan and i always travel alone the looks that i get from passersby priceless .....
Too hell with inflation its the entire nations problem i alone cannot do anything. Its the Governments Job to deal with it.

Here But Nowhere To Go
Hey Everyone
This is my first post and i think the first time i am ever ever in my life writing on public platform.So please pardon me for my mistakes and i would appreciate feedbacks, posts ,comments anything you feel about the posts.
Today morning i was just sitting in office with headphones on listening to music that i cherish and all of sudden i just got fed up of what was playing (which never happens cause i live for music).And i sat to think i need to do something creative something exciting that takes my time and gives me pleasure too.
A few days back my director read a article i wrote on the intra net and a few other posts and he urged me to write another article that he would like to post on his blog. So i came up with this idea of creating my own blog and HERE i am.
Somehow today morning i felt bored with what i was doing i just noticed that past few days i was throwing tantrums and as well as my anger on my friends at work. Not that i hate my job or i am sick of it but i think i need a break and something very soon before i loose it out. Especially after last week when my team leader was on a vacation and the load had to be shed by me and few others responsible. It seems as if all of a sudden things were hitting me with lightning speed
and with a few seniors that were not willing to take responsibility work had seriously piled on. Anyways now that my TL is back things are back to normal but i need a break. So i am going for River Rafting this Saturday with a few office friends not that a day would make a huge difference but should take the stress out a bit and subject to approval i have take the coming Monday off to just rest at home.
Anyways Thats It For Now
