Refreshing zoo....

well ... its all about my first outing in bangalore...

Last sunday i went to bennargatta national park...

the prejudice in my mind was.... big century... reach wild life...
I will go in a jeep and will enjoy the safari....

when we started it was quite a sunny day...
but as we approached the park... nearly before 10 kilometers it started raining....

moreover the bus was not going to drop us till the park... it dropped us before two kilometers...
somehow we managed to move in shopping center nearby....
There we ate the meal we bought from home....

we thought to go back... but then again rain got slower.... but was not stopped...
i alone was having a jacket and bag... so they all dropped their cell phones and money in my bag...
and while i was wearing my jacket and packing the bag... they went away...

I wondered for about 15 minutes to search them and missed one bus to reach the park... thinking that no one can contact each other as i was having all the cell phones...

suddenly i felt vibration from bag... it took around 10 minutes to find that which cell got the call exactly....

but till that time i missed the call.... and beauty was that they never called back...
then i gave a ring back to the caller...
God bless the owner... he said i m talking from park.. your friends are reached here and waiting for you...

I took a cab and reached at the park... this time also it was raining heavily...

rest of the things were fine... and normal zoo... (rain was stopped when i reached at park.....)
but the journey was quite refreshing....

and i enjoyed it a lot.... :-)...

Safari trip was not up to the expectations.... actually they built some what bigger cages... and took us through them in a big bus!!!!

In the middle of nowhere....

Have you ever felt like that...

Well i m currently going through that...

I was used to ask my self that what should i be doing?
I havent got any firm answer for that ...

But the answer i got is: At least not that i am doing currently...

Now I have so many ways to go ... but seems like all the doors are closed... and yet there are so many opportunity....
I am in a big confusion... and its too much risky to take risk at this point ...
But i also feel like that ... if i am not going to take any action now... then there is more chances for damage...

guys i am gathering much bigger courage to think ahead and do something ....
Please provide some support.... its the question of my life and future....

What to do?? study further... switch field... or nothing???

The LAST SUPPER...!!!!

The post of the title have nothing to do with the famous picture of Leonardo Da Vinci or with Bible....

Actually its about the most risky attempt of my room partner...
Finally he made up his mind to go for it ... and he did it yesterday...

He cooked at room....

When he first told me at office that i will cook tonight ... I just ignored and considered it as his another joke...
But then he repeated this for 2 -3 times more... and he is suffering from few months for his stomach problem... I sensed the danger in his eyes... He was pretty confident on his decision...

Now the news was in the air... that sandy will cook tonight...
And order was all the room partner will eat it...
Few of my friends started prayers for my health... and others was showing their concerns...
but all was of no help...

Finally he called me from the shop that which vegetables i like... ( I liked his curtsy... )
I was not much looking forward to the dinner... coz before going at room ... i had enough food ... ( just to remain sure that i will not sleep without eating....)

But he came with all the necessary items... and start preparing .... In the middle of the procedure ... other partner came... and started helping him.... The tools were just amazing... only one knife... one bowl... lots of news papers... and one broken dish (the biggest broken part of dish)...

the list of vegetables is also amazing.... methi, bataka, capsicum, flawer...

but the most shocking thing is... the final outcome was just too good....
We ate it with bread... And with surprise... the room partner came having dinner outside.. also joined us for dinner second time.... We completed the whole bowl....

So it was the finest thing we did at room till date...
Hats off sandy..!!!

recession striked at home :-(

RECESSION is not a new word these days....
but the meaning can be known to the victims only..
Its the most annoying thing when you are kicked out of the company because your higher management couldnt made it for the business...
I cant really see recession in India up to that level as in USA... work load is still the same...
and what the point to kick out a person showing the reason of recession when his salary is already less then the industry standards??
I am really disappointed as one of my colleague caught by recession ... he was not deserving it....
Really if industry keeps going like this way... they will get a back fire...

The world we are leaving in.... made by us...

Many times i have heard that what work culture USA have...
People are so professional and they follow this method and that method and so on...

You can meet your boss directly... and they respect your time... they never approach you after the office hours... they never forget the formalities before starting conversation... and hell lot of such points...

But who started this?
Its not like that suddenly from one bright day morning... all people started this practice...

No way...
The people of USA has made it by continuous practice....
If we want to follow such practices... then we have implement it in our own....

But it looks too much difficult right now....
People need to kill their ego and need to stop politics in corporate world...
but the managers are also the typical indians....
When you try to follow any such practice... it is seen as perpetration ....

God only knows when it will be actually implemented in india...
But to ensure it... Lets start it by our self... at least....(as much as possible....)
Will you cooperate ?

A Life for purpose is a purpose of life.... !!??

Hi people....
Yes ... my mind started working again....

It took some time and a trip to heaven(home) as i said... But everything is fine now...
so no worries....

I read the title quote in one book I am reading currently....
It had made an impact on my mind...
From few days i am working on this...

The author says that one have to found his own purpose of life....
And when you will start working for it.... the energy will flow from you ... effortlessly...
You will be full of life.... and each little accomplishment towards your goal will give enormous amount of energy and courage to achieve your goal....

Looks pretty cool... and logical... coz it says that your goal is the thing which you want to do.... not the things which you have to do....
So one should start working what he wants to do.... not the things that he have to do....

I liked the idea... and want to try by my self... I am pretty convinced about its result... (well up till now...)
So I am going through quite weird time right now....

How can i know about the purpose of my life.... ???
How can i know that this is the thing which i want to do till the end my life.... without trying it??

One solution that I can figure out is to try the things which ever comes in my mind.... and find out the goal of my life....
But this way is quite long and cant afford that much time....

Is there any other way out???

Come guys.... help me out for this....
May be you will also find your life's goal....

Thinking Procees Freezed!!!!

Is that happened to you any time??
Man I am going through it....

My creative thinking is stopped ... ( i guess so...)
I don't know why but its true..

Before some day... I tried meditation for only about 10 to 15 minutes...
And tried to achieve the thought less state of mind... Well it was quite tough in starting but the last few minutes were amazing... no thought in my mind... total blank.... It was like hard reset ....

but now... I like to retain my previous state of mind...
I also forgot to take back up ... so is there any way to restore it??

Well I just want to know that how to start thinking again???
My old marvelous state of creativity....

May be few days of leave or some fun filled trip to heaven will help me....
Please provide your inputs....
(See here also i m using the office protocols!!!!)

Help me out guys....

Celebrating 1st anniversary in corporate world...!!!!

Yes....

Today I completed my first year in corporate world...
Full of ups and downs ....

Well its not that hard to stay in corporate world... (or i haven't faced the corporate world yet.... whatever the case) but it surely affects you...

I am really transmogrified during this one year.... before one year I was a student at graduate school and now I am a person with responsibilities and lot many things.... Now I cant raise my hand out of the shit I have created...

Life was much simple before this all stuff.... I was free to do anything I want to with no hesitation....

Sometime I wish I could
turn back time..
Impossible it may seem....

Really those days were so precious ... but I was not knowing that time....

But sometimes simple life sucks as well... So i decided to get in to the corporate world.... and now living in since 1 full year.... Now i am no more careless.... but i want to switch back to the old collage days for few days at least... but its not possible i know....

But this year was fun too... I got matured at much faster rate... I changed a lot in many aspects... but trying hard for not to change.....
Pretty confusing and weired time i am having now.....
But hey .... don't misunderstand...
I am still ENJOYING..... ;-)

For the Peace of your MIND....

I just read this in some magazine and found it so true...

So here I am sharing it with you guys in my words and some of my own words.

So it goes like this :

There is no such thing in this world which can affect you by mean...
Indeed , nothing outside your skin can make any difference to you unless you allow it.

The idea here is that it all starts and resides in mind.. If you allow anything to affect your emotion.. then and then it can make any difference to you otherwise you cant be touched.

Sometimes people loses their anger on such small things like... too much crowd for bus , late arrival of bus , bad test of food , some one's oily head touched you and many more....
Many of these things are of no importance but makes you discomfort...
And this should not be the case...

So the idea behind this is to remain clam in any damn condition...
Now you must be having a question that how to do it??

Yes .. The author also gave the answer to this..
Always remember two things:
1) Dont sweat the small things.
2) Its all small things.

What a great solution...!!!
nothing can affect you ... If you can apply this...
believe me... it works...
Ya its hard to implement but not impossible...

Have a happy life :-)

Finally .. I got it !!!!

Yes.... I got it...
I am talking about my phone....
It's Nokia 5800...

from August 2008... I got the news about 5800... and liked the phone at first sight...
and waiting for its release....
Finally on 24th december I got the news about pre-booking...
And i booked my phone on 25th ...

Then I was waiting for the phone from dealer...
And finally they called me on 3rd Jan 2009...

I rushed to the shop on 4th Jan at 10:30... and....
What the hell....

The shop was still closed... Man I was just angry with them.... How could they remain closed at 10:30??
but I was having some work around so I went to complete it first and returned at shop on 11:15..
This time it was open...

I went in and asked for 5800... and they brought it out....
Oh boy...!!! It was right there... on the table... Now it was too much difficult to behave my self....
but I just managed my self and remained calm... They made bill and other formalities.... and I was just watching my phone right over there....

My dad interrupted me and asked me to do signs and make payment...
And after that It was there in my hand....!!!

Most beautiful moment of my life till now....
My favourite phone from my own money...
My mom was also very happy ....

Believe me guys ... phone is just amazing... worth waiting for 4 months... (paisa vasool....)

Lost dignity of the IT field....

Yes... Unfortunately its true....
and I am also in the same field....

I dont know but how can we loose something so important to make money...??

Client is like god for the IT companies.... but they are taken too much seriously sometime....
Most of the clients are from US..

So offices are used to follow the US calender...
so we cant have holidays on Indian festivals .... but we are forced to have holidays on their festivals.... just because their people are not working in those days...

And the icing on the cake is... US calender is not followed strictly....
No Five days week... at the most alternate Saturdays are off....

I have only one question.... Why....???
Why we are loosing our identities....
Why cant we force them to respect our values...??
If we can have holidays on Christmas....
Why cant we have a mini vacation on navratri..???

There is something missing at our side.... and its called will power...
after better relations and if our services are best.... they will surely follow our calender...

Lets see who does this first....!!!!
Common people show your guts...

Consequences of RAB NE BANADI JODI.......!!!!

Remember my Room mates Sandy and Modi???
They were with me on the Mt. ABU trip....

wanna have some intro again???
go here...
You can go through the whole trip again... if you want....

So the current topic is about the return journey from the movie called... RAB NE BANADI JODI......

The show started at 10 : 30 in the night....
and as the Kathakar ( ladani ) insisted so much... they went to FUN REPUBLIC....
quite far from my room .... about 10 kilometers....

the movie is some what long so they started at 1 :30 from FR and coming towards room....
It was around 1 : 45 am .... and the MODI was driving bike.... ( FYI : Its my bike.... Apache )....

So the over smart modi chose to come from Panchwati to MM...
There are hell lot of ways to come at our room from FR... but as the destiny defined they came from Jade blue....
Sandy got the intuition about cops... but he didnt tell anything and they kept driving....

And cop called them off.....

Now the fun starts.....

Fortunately Modi was driving ... and he is having license... ( sandy have two expired learning licenses... due to the tight schedule between ahmedabad , bharuch and pune.... he cant found time for that....)

Cop was thinking that they are having a theft bike ... ( they were driving at somewhat high speed....)

Modi went to cop ... and cop asked ... that whose bike is this....
Modi told its mine... ( as i said over smart modi...)
Cop asked for the bike number...
so modi went back to bike to check the number....

Cop says if its your bike then why you are not remembering the number???
Modi's foolish argument was.... I am suffering from cold... thats why.....
And here comes the life saver Sandy in the picture....
He says... we have 4 vehicles at home.. i dont remember the number of all....

Cop replies.... You have Airplane at home... I dont care... You should remember the numbers... :-)...

now cop asks for modi's license..
Modi keeps photo copy of his license ... not the original...
Cops says ... why you are not keeping original??
modi's answer : for safety purpose....
cop : is it in the safe vault??
Now cop again doubted that... your license is from Nadiad and bike from Baroda .. How??

now cop takes the key from bike....
( My bikes key is broken in such a manner that it works totally fine but we cant attach the key chain with it...)
Cop : look at the key... it looks duplicate... are you stealing it??
modi : noway... its original one... look TVS is written on it....
Cop : I also written on the duplicate one....
Cop : now... stay here up till morning.... go to the police station at sleep over there... fan is on....

Now sandy got angry over him.... and denied his offer....
Cop asked for the identity proof.....
Over over smart modi showed his visiting card!!!!!!

and cop refused for that....
He also failed to recognised our company's name.....

and butter on the cake was.... they were not having the movie tickets with them.....
Now sandy offered that if i call my friend and confirm that we were that at movie ... will you let us go??

Finally that gentle man agreed upon that....
Now manish just reached at home and was changing his clothes... so he didnt took phone at first....
After some time at second attempt he received the call....

Now cop asked for the address of our room ... and ladani was not knowing the exact location...
but he managed to show the route to reach our room....

and finally cop agreed that ok... you can go....
but he again frightened modi... that I have written your name...
If any bomb found in this area or any theft is reported... we will call you ....

The modi caught in the worst mood of his life....
And after few minutes ladani called back... to ask... how many slaps you got from Cop??

oh god.... what a fine time they had!!!!
any inputs from the victims of this case are invited!!!

What say modi?? sandy??
Share your experience with us.... !! ;-)

Beete Lamhe....

Dard me bhi ye lab muskura jate hain......
Beete lamhe hamin jab bhi yad aate hain.....

Ya... whenever the thoughts of old collage and school days surrounds me....
This are the lines of songs written above describes my situation...

People who knows me...
They knows that this is not possible...
Coz I can never be upset for more then one day....

But yes those sweet memories indeed surrounds me quite often... specially nowadays...
The reason behind that is.. I recently met my old collage buddies.... and some school buddies also....

All are doing fine... and I am happy to know that..

I think I am blessed since my birth... coz was never been alone without any friends....
school friends.... collage friends.... and now the friends at work place....

All are just great...

So thank you god for giving me the basket full of these friends....
But I am having only one question to ask....

Cant I leave with these friends all together??

I remember few lines heard from my friend... which describes my situation best....

Nathi purto naseeb no aanand o khuda....
Nathi purto naseeb no aanand o khuda.....

Marji mujab ni thodi maja hovi joie......

something about ethics....

I encountered with one speech few days before....

It was about the great epic of India... Ramayana... where Ram and Laxman are talking about ethics...

The whole dialog is very effective in gujarati.... so here it is...

For non gujju readers.. i will try my best to translate into English....

Gujarati version :

Ram : Aadarsh vinanu jivan vyarth chhe.

Laxman : Ha, pan kyarek aadarsh ma jivan vyarth bani jay chhe.

Ram : A hashe, pan aadarsh ma vyarth banelu jivan bija mate aadarsh bani jay chhe.

English translation : (my hand is short here...)

Ram : Life is not worthy without ethics (morals).

Laxman : Yes, but sometimes life becomes worthless due to ethics (morals).

Ram : It may happen , but worthless life due ethics (morals) becomes ideal for others.

What great conversation!!!!
What kind of people can talk like this?? what is the level of wisdom!!!

only few words explains everything....
For those who are not believing in existence of the characters of this epic...
they also cant refuse at least the height of the writer....

Yes my friend ... its not about believing....
Its about the philosophy of life....

One can not leave this way in current world but can surly try one's best....
This way the world can become more beautiful....

Dont mess with me....!!

Have you ever messed up with some sweet , little , smart and innocent devils....

Well i have few around me known as nieces and nephews....

these are my encounters with them.... and after these incidents....
I strongly believe that this kind of stuff should be sent with statuary warning by GOD...

once i asked one my nephew ... that how you spell elephant??
and the answer was... E... l .... i.... f.... a.... n... and t....
I told him that no... its not the correct spelling...
And the answer was... Ya.. it mat be wrong... but that's how I spell it... and you asked me so...

Can anyone argue for this kind of answers??
Do you have these kind of devils around... I am having few and still counting...
May god make me strong enough to leave with them....
