Thadiyandamol, here i come ! !

Yuhoooo......am finally going for the trek... :)
Everything's planned well n we would be leaving at 23:00 today......
7 of us goin this time.....
running short of words to post because of the excitement :op ...will post back when I have loads to tell about the place n the trekking experience...so until then....Aloha !!

A better tomorrow................

If tomorrow you wake up and find yourself smiling,
are you thinking of me?

If tomorrow you look at your garden,
will you see us walking hand in hand?

If tomorrow you sit for your dinner at the table and look at the adjacent chair,
will you wish I was there?

If tomorrow you open the door,
will you be expecting me at the doorstep?

If tomorrow you walk on the road and look at a house,
are you wondering about the one we might own?

If tomorrow your phone rings,
will you want it to be me on the other end?

If tomorrow you impatiently open your mailbox,
are you hoping to see my mails?

If tomorrow you look out of the window and see your neighbours kid play,
will you be thinking about ours?

If tomorrow you sit for a minute to pray,
will you also pray for me?

If tomorrow you have a great news to share,
will I be the first one to hear it?

If tomorrow I get down on my knees with a bunch of red roses and ask you to be mine forever,
will you close your eyes and say an yes?

For all the tomorrows I have dreamt of,
theres this today that's passing by,
inching ever second closer to the tomorrow you will walk into,
and if tomorrow comes,
will you think about an ''US'' like I do?

Cant wait for the Weekend....

The best way to start a hectic week at work is knowing u have a brilliant weekend planned....especially...if its longer than the usual 2 days that we techies get.....this time its gonna be a 3 day long weekend... :o)

Am planning to go to Tadiandamol.....its enroute to Coorg....a neat 6 hour drive from Bangalore...well....thats about all i know as of now.... :o) but cant wait to get to that place....the snaps of that place were sent to me by my pal raghu......n was blown off by the scenic beauty there.....hmmmm


Its been quite sometime that i actually trekked with friends...did a lot of travellin last year...but mostly with my parents...so its good to get out with friends n do what u like doing ........
More updates on this exciting weekend getaway in posts to come

Thankfully have a great weekend planned for the next week cause the 1st of May is a holiday n i get 3 full days :).....
Therez a trekking plan in the pipeline......more about it in the posts to come...
To all the people who are workin today.....its just one of those days people! ! ....let it pass :o)

A lazy friday afternoon

Its just another boring Friday afternoon...not much work n i have been looking at the clock forever....waiting for the official working day to end.....n make my getaway from this mad work place.....

The sad plight of we techies is that we wait all week for the weekend n when it arrives, we have nothing to do except getting bored sittin at home or hang out with the wrong people n trying to start a conversation with losers, who can think only about work...( yup, am surely talkin about some of my office colleagues at the sad team outings we have) n we feel we were better at our own den in office....where each one of us have our own online personality which i call the Online social-life.....

Just the thought of not having access to the net even for a day scares me....I would certainly go crazy n so would half a million IT chaps who literaly live on the cyber web.....i know a fella who checks his mail every 5 minutes n the unbelievable part is ...he actually does get 2 mails in 5 minutes....

hmmm.......It gets really boring in here sometimes....am still waitin for the clock to show me the time i want to see...... :(

Some tunes live on........................

I hear over a hundred songs in a day......but there r few songs i would never get tired of listenin to...its probably because the song reminds you of moments that u would like to cherish all ur life...or maybe its because u relate to the lyrics so much that u feel the song writer had u on his mind when he penned the song down.....

one such song is "Bed of Roses" by Bonjovi.......
here are the lyrics.....

"Bed of roses"

Sitting here wasted and wounded
At this old piano
Trying hard to capture
The moment this morning I don’t know
’cause a bottle of vodka
Is still lodged in my head
And some blond gave me nightmares
I think she’s still in my bed
As I dream about movies
They won’t make of me when I’m dead

With an ironclad fist I wake up and
French kiss the morning
While some marching band keeps
Its own beat in my head
While we’re talking
About all of the things that I long to believe
About love and the truth and
What you mean to me
And the truth is baby you’re all that I need

I want to lay you on a bed of roses
For tonite I sleep on a bed on nails
I want to be just as close as the holy ghost is
And lay you down on bed of roses

Well I’m so far away
That each step that I take is on my way home
A king’s ransom in dimes I’d given each night
Just to see through this payphone
Still I run out of time
Or it’s hard to get through
Till the bird on the wire flies me back to you
I’ll just close my eyes and whisper,
Baby blind love is true

I want to lay you down on a bed of roses
For tonite I sleep on a bed on nails
I want to be just as close as the holy ghost is
And lay you down on bed of roses

The hotel bar hangover whiskey’s gone dry
The barkeeper’s wig’s crooked
And she’s giving me the eye
I might have said yeah
But I laughed so hard I think I died

When you close your eyes
Know I’ll be thinking about you
While my mistress she calls me
To stand in her spotlight again
Tonite I won’t be alone
But you know that don’t
Mean I’m not lonely I’ve got nothing to prove
For it’s you that I’d die to defend

I want to lay you down on a bed of roses
For tonite I sleep on a bed on nails
I want to be just as close as the holy ghost is
And lay you down on bed of roses

Fanatic Fans....

A week has gone by after the Thespian Dr.Rajkumar passed away......A very talented man with over 200 movies under his belt......
All said n done....it really hurts to talk about the bad scene of riots which occured almost instantly. Bangalore witnessed chaos, panic n disorder........sadly though im putting a few snaps of the disturbing scenes which happened in our very own Bengaluru....

Sad but true ! !

An angry mob doesnt have a brain...

Another example of poor planning and an incapable Government....
The whole riots thingy was so pointless....cant believe people call it mourning......

Was surprised there were so many jobless people in town.....
Its not that the things which happened in Bangalore does not, or will not happen else where in India. Whenever such sad incidents happen there are thousands of people who are sad and want to pay last regards to their hero. But jobless people always find ways to disrupt the peace during these times. Its just shear frustration of some young people who have got no direction in life and have each and every thing to blame, for their failure in life, about ( Govt, Police, Employment condition, IT peoples earnings, infrastructure etc ) and who take advantage of such situations and vent their frustration...

A Police Vehicle burns......

Hope things change one day n people react to things like this in a normal way.......
well its still a hope.... ! !

I wish........

I wish I could tell you how much I love you.....
When I close my eyes I see you.....
When I open my eyes.....I long to see you.....
Even when you are not near me.....
I feel you in everything that surrounds me.....
Every minute, every second .. all the time..
My eyes search only for you everytime.....

Call it love...madness or just my heartbeats.....
A lot of people have loved before.....
But my love stands apart because they don’t have you.....
I can’t ever forget you.....
n never want to......
You are mine and will love you forever.....

small talk.....

This happened a couple of days back.......

was chatting with my chum in a pub after work.

my friend: "Guess what, mate, yesterday, I met this gorgeous blonde girl in a bar."

me: "What did you do?"

my friend: "Well, I invited her over to my place, we had a couple of drinks, we got into the mood and then she suddenly asked me to make her feel special"

me: "You're kidding me!"

my friend: "I then I lifted her and put her on my desk next to my new laptop."

me: "Really? You got a new laptop? What configuration?"

my friend: "It's a 1 GB RAM and mobile internet connectivity card and guess what it has an inbuilt card reader............"

me: "Cool.....how much did it cost?"......

Wonder why im still single :o)

Bitten by the lazy bug ....

Phew ! ! ....finally remembered that i even had a blog :op.......Actually a lot has happened over the past few months..........met a lot of new people n a few important ones too :-D someone has a smile on their face now....






Well......the last time i wrote anything logical on this blog of mine was in Jan 2006....i feel ashamed of my laziness...or perhaps its the busy life that i lead that makes me dizzy the moment i come back home from work n then the last thing i can do is write a piece on my blog.....neways.....enough of all my lazy excuses....i finalyl got back on my feet n sat down to write something....
but shucks.....where do i start?......n what all should i write?.......so much has happened.....

In brief...im tryin to list out the good things that has happened.......
1. Got my profile up on Orkut(yeah.........now i know where all my extra time was spent :-))
2. I got to know a whole bunch of new people with the Spandana group....(more about it in the posts to come)
3. Moved into a new building in office......(but the crowd here is equally disappointing :op)
4. Did a lot of decent photography.....(or should i say was just too happy to discover that I could take good pics)
5. Got a hike in my BPL(Below Poverty Line) Salary....to OPL(On Poverty Line)........
6. Got a new pair of headphones....(searched for it like crazy n picked up a piece of junk..yuck ! !)
7. Finally the best thing..........I sat back n promised myself am gonna keep this blog updated(This thing happened 5 minutes back)


n now the list of bad things that i did ...
1. It should certainly be my laziness.......
2. Haven't excercised for quite sometime now.....n feel like a bean bag....
3. Purchased a pair of coolers for 800 bucks n broke it in a week......
4. Couldnt shop due to budget constraints (after all....im a poor Infoscian)
