Movie mania

Just can't believe what a movie freak I turning into. This entire week I have been watching a movie almost everyday. It's not just watching movies but watching them at odd hours.

All of us (me and my roomies) have been working very odd hours lately. Almost everybody comes home at around 10 PM and has dinner by 11. I mean, what the fuck is happening, is this the life we dreamt of, slogging our asses at work and by the end of the day you are so fuckin stressed out.

What else do we do at home, talk crap, bitch about the dumbassed colleagues... HELL... There's more to do in life.

Movies turn out to be a great solace, entertain you, relax you, what else do we need.
But then watching movies at odd hours is leaving me drowsy the following day. HELL... What else could happen if you go to bed at 2 in the morning and then wake up at 9.

Things really need to change.

Lethargic Mondays

Yet another lethargic Monday. Caught up with a late night movie(Escape from Alcatraz) last night. Woke up late in the morning at 9:00 AM, JEEZ! What a time to get up on a Monday morning.

Lack of sleep makes you all the more lazy.

Replies to client mails, few critical bug fixes and a review call with my manager, that's all has been done in the entire day, what in the world is happening to my productivity.

Was supposed to start with a new assignment, but I just cannot drag myself to do it. Will start with renewed energies tomorrow morning.

Today I just want to keep myself away form work. Feel like hanging out with friends over a cup of tea or a mug of beer may be.

All work and no play

Work is keeping me occupied lately. Am working on something really exciting. A new domain, new technology and not to forget the new challenges that it brings. What more than this, can a techie like me expect.

It's the challenges that really keeps me ticking. I wonder how life would be without its intrinsic challenges.

Well that's all for the moment, hope to chip in some lines regularly.

Love, is it give and take?

I always had this notion that love is all about giving. Not only love but life too, that's what I guess karma is all about. But I was proved wrong by someone whom I love and respect.

You kill the joy, when you give and expect something in return.

With a person like me who doesn't know what relationships are, its very difficult to draw conclusions here, but being a very strong believer of The Geeta, I would stick to my stand "Don't give something just for the sake of expecting something in return".

The return

After months of silence, today I return back to those days when I used to write. Its almost a year since I have written my last blog. Seems like ages.

I haven't changed much I think, but time surely has. It has taught me new lessons.

I hope that the thoughts keep flowing.

Search for a home ends here

Have been looking out for a house for quite some time, but was not able to get something suitable. Either the rates are very high or the locality is inappropriate. Meanwhile I even lost hope of finding a good house.

I went to Jassi's place today, just a casual visit. Here Suman mentioned that she had spoken to someone at Montvert Pristine and they do have some flats available.

I wasn't all that excited about it, as I thought the locality would not be appropriate and Monvert rates are usually higher than market rates.

However what's wrong in visiting the place. So three of us went ahead to have a look at the place. On visiting the place we found that the locality very decent. Had a look at the sample flat and discussed the budget. Everything seemed to be falling in place. All of us liked the place and we thought that we would keep this option open.

Thought about the pros and cons of living here, everything was on the positive side, its not that far away from the office and the city. Only one negative point, the place is exactly opposite Khadki railway station so there would be a lot of noise . But then there are hardly any trains that stop at Khadki and even if they honk its only for a few seconds.

By the end of the visit I was very firm that I would be buying a house here. We even finalized the floor. Since myself and Jassi both have a fascination for higher floors, we decided to buy a house on the penultimate floor i.e. the 10th floor.
