I am back !

May 9,2009....The day I put my last entry on blog...was it really long back ? :-P

That's the problem with me...Once I get passionate for something,I can't really hold it for long,be it learning Guitar,hacking,some programming(yuks !!!!) or updating my blog...recent one is Fine Art Photography.But,am back on blog writing (I dnt believe ) and will do my best to stick to it !!!

I was off for United States from September till December,one of the reasons (rather I should say excuse), I could not update my blog...hey,hey,hey..Did I tell you about my U.S Trip ? Of course not ;-)

Guys,it was a dream coming true to be in States.You get to see every kind of people,amazing infrastructure and mouth watering food.Only place on this earth giving home to people from different corners of the world.

I was staying in a Studio Suite for 3 months in a sub-urb of Michigan - Auburn Hills.I bet none or may be few of you may have heard about it...hardly matters !

Though I was there for 3 months,I could not afford to travel much across states...mmmm...budget constraints and not-good company :-(
Still,I managed to travel to Niagara Falls,Newyork and San Francisco,CA...I have one of my best friend staying in CA who took me around.I got to shop a lot there too...Uncle Sam got cheap gadgets like a Sony Vaio and BOSE music dock for me :)

Overall,it was fun to be there...
Guys,feeling damn sleepy..Off to sleep...

Vote India Vote !

Guys,

I hope you had a nice day..Weather is pleasant(rather romantic) !

It was a hectic day for me...was busy in work(for a change..huh !)..could not get time to check my B-LOG..Came home @ 8 and logged in now...no comments from any of you guys :-(

anyways,tomorrow is the D-Day for our po-litti-kal parties..Elections in major chunk of Northern India including our DILLI and my hometown(its Ambala if you are scratching your head from my last post)...

I am really feeling bad I won't be able to vote...mummmyyyyyyyy !

After my transition from a naught kid to an ADULT(Am I really???),this is the first time for general elections.I wasted my lot of time to get me the voting right,but but but....deaf ears :-(

but,I want you all guys to spare out some time from your busy schedule(hehehehe) , go out and vote...Now please don't say "mere vote karne se kya hoga???"(What difference will it make if I vote?)

Guys,It does make difference....

Unfortunately, its now becoming  fashion among people to say, The problem with India is its democracy. Look at China...once they decides to do something,nobody can come in the way. We cherish our right to free speech, our right to choose our own gods, and our right to decide who should represent us. All of these are important to us. As Indira Gandhi rudely discovered, much as we would like our trains to run on time, we love our freedoms even more.

It is true that no political or economic system in the world is perfect. If communism was the anti-god that failed, the recent collapse of Wall Street has caught capitalism.once again with its hand in the till. It is also true that, just as you can get yourself the sturdiest car in the world and then hand over the keys to a dangerous driver, you can have the best political/economic system but with mediocre and/or morally bankrupt people to run it.

We are all aware that many of our so-called leaders are corrupt, sectarian, regressive, and in the extreme, even murderous. In their list of priorities, personal figures way above the welfare of the people they are meant to represent. Inside Parliament, when they werent selling their votes for money, they were accepting cash to ask motivated questions. Outside Parliament, they were caught taking bribes to give contracts. An MP was held for human trafficking using forged passports. In the outgoing Lok Sabha, there were 120 MPs with criminal records many of them with multiple charges ranging from murder, kidnapping and rape to robbery, fraud and extortion.


But its time for us to wake up and change the way we look at our System...Its difficult for most of us to be a part of System and clean it but atleast we can get good sweepers on Job :-) .. nothing offensive

I expect you to go out tomorrow with your friends,family and relatives and VOTE for a better India (We are far away from being BEST)

Good Night...Happy Voting !

Tuesday Blues (Contd.)

Hi Guys,

I had to rush for a high priority issue..apologies !!

mmm...I was sharing something about my trip to hometown...right ? umm..I think so :-)

Since I was stuck in office work for 7 hours,I could not accompany my dear U-VA friend (He owns a MATIZ too..huh !)...lucky me (:-P)...hehehe...jst kidding...

Finally,I planned to work from home(town) on Monday..Its always a nice experience working from home,atleast from my hometown..you got to show off a lot - lappy,conf calls,VPN Tokens..enough to impress the people coming to my home.

Other advantage being I get mom-cooked-served food...yummie ! Let me tell you one thing,am a big time fooodie.So,second one in my favour too :-)

Now comes the sad part,return trip to Delhi...difficult to accept,hard to implement...bu hu hu :-(

Started early morning 2 AM as I have to login back @ 7:30 AM....boring trip,boring co-travellers,Idiotic Bus-conductor(as usual) and no Girls..overall,two thumbs down :-(

back to No-id(e)a on tuesday morning,missing home badly,thats why I call it "Tuesday Blues"

Its 8 PM and am really tired now...man,I was travelling the whole night...am closing my shop for the day and gonna collapse as soon as I reach my DEN...good night to all of you...Appreciated for tolerating me :-)

Signing Off !!!!!

Tuesday Blues :-(

Though am in half conscious state right now,still updating my blog as people kept on bugging me to do so :-)
You might be surprised to see the subject,don't be :-)

Its really difficult to spare a weekend in Noida in Summers without A.C,without a Girlfriend (Local one) and without frenzzz(of course !).So, preferred to Spent my weekend in my hometown as its jst 6 hours journey by road (just 6 hours..gurrrr!!!)

I planned to drive down back to Noida with one of my buddies(will introduce him later) in his CHEVEROLET _U-VA (wow !) , but but but...Thanks a million to my project,which could not let me enjoy the ride :-( .
There was some task assigned to me to be implemented on Sunday (My Gr8 IT job),supposed to completed in 1 hour,but it actually took my odd 7 hours..why ? IT complexities..uff !

Guys,I got a high priority issue,so no more in half conscious state..Will update this post later..enjoy !

My First Post

"Close the door. Write with no one looking over your shoulder. Don't try to figure out what other people want to hear from you; figure out what you have to say. It's the one and only thing you have to offer"- Barbara Kingsolver

Though my doors are not closed and my younger brother is looking over my shoulder :-) , I'm still trying to jot down my first article on this blog.I always wanted to start writing a diary or blog,but was lacking motivation.The above written quote did that.So,keep looking for some interesting articles.
