UPDATE!!! (The drama, excuses for not updating :P)


23/12/2010
[Day before my last exam of this sem]

I open my home page and see this comment from xyzandme "WHERE THE HECK ARE YOU!" and I immediately made up my mind to write a post soon after I go offline! But the procrastination worm seems to play a significant role in my decisions and ate this whole idea up. Sigh! L and the guilt of doing things other than studying also added to it and I decided to write one after the exam the next day!

24/12/2010 (ENTER)[headache worm :P]

The exam goes pretty well not great though and after a nice chat in the canteen and bus with friends I reach home. I took a short nap and woke up feeling all groggy. Short nap = Half sleep and headache worm has entered! Tralalala :P All plans cancelled And I slept for the rest of the evening J

25\26/12/2010 (ENTER) [Enjoyment worm :P]

Off to my granny's house and with my cousins coming down it really awesome! We cut cake. I got to play cricket after a long time. I learnt to play tt a bit. We watched movies! With all the pj's getting cracked the fun in watching a movie with cousins is totally different! We hogged! 2 days of much needed fun after exams had blocked up my grey cells :P


And, for the rest of the days it laziness worm that kept me away from blogger! I finally managed to get my brain cleared from all the worms and am here with a lame post..


I plan to write a series of posts of stuff that kept me way J A promise I make to myself. Hope I live upto it.


HAPPY NEW YEAR in advance to y'all.

The end of ‘MANGO’ season



This is a post from my drafts. In fact I had started writing this even before the previous one but left it unfinished. And now, since I can't think of anything to write about and more importantly this post deserves a place on my blog and so it is here =)

I was reading an article on www.zenhabits.net on how to form habits, and this is what was said there –

Do it, no matter how badly. Want to form the habit of blogging? Write a quick and dirty post that takes five minutes of writing, no proofreading or formatting. Quality doesn't matter when you're forming habits — doing it matters.
Immediately I decided I had to write and since am writing it for myself it doesn't matter much if it's great. All that matters is I should write.

Now, coming to the post, this mango season was simply awesome! Never I had imagined it would be so nice and I would be doing something productive in my holidays. I had the rare honor of getting to stay with the 'BANGLORE KING', a close friend of mine. Thanks to aunty and uncle who arranged for the internship and made sure we got a nice PG to stay in.

Now if you are wondering what this mango is, this is the place where we interned. A small company of around 25 employees which majorly develops mobile applications on android platform. We worked under KP Singh, a person with 20+ yr's of industrial experience. Apart from tech knowledge, the knowledge he had about of other things was amazing and he made sure he shared it with us! We used to call it kpgyan! He was a environment conscious person, followed what he preached and was very keen to learn new things! He made us feel very comfortable from the beginning and treated us like a part of mango! But we learnt coding and work was assigned to us by venky, A really sweet and patient person. He never minded explaining things to us any number of times and correcting the simplest errors sometimes. Then there was

ram sir, the bubbliest and cheerful person there.

Nalin, The `what's up` guy.

Anup,The one who used to come with a parle-G packet and would sit cross legged and a jacket on the chair.

Mohit,aka Mojo.

Jason,The designer guy!

Vineesh, a one yr intern who used to smile and cough and rarely speak.

Na'M'itha,the one with whom we had max fun, teased her, irritated her.

Sahil,the iit guy who dropped tea on his laptop which made tea times after that gr8.

Pammi, a new joinee who was funny and cute!

Manohar, the guy who won the table discussion.

Pratik, mohan and others whom we used to meet on our way back from lunch.

Edward, the one who used to usually open the door for us!

Tea times were teasing and relaxing fun. The whole company used to gather on the verandah and have tea together. We also had lunches there, played table tennis (my first time), used the unlimited internet to the max, did Yoga for only 2 days but complained the whole time. Memories, all awesome =)

Now, the place where we stayed, a pg which was just 20 min by walk from mango! To get such a nice place and convenient place to stay in blore is really a great thing. I must say we were really really lucky. The facilities except for food were good. We had posh rooms, attached posh toilets, hot water heaters and the room was cleaned by the maids almost daily =) the food, esp the dinner was bad! But then everything can rarely be good at a place, something should be compromised. Half a month we had a roomie and rest of the time we were the only ones.

The weekends were the best part of the stay! Visited almost all the malls. Went to mantri mall for continuously 3 days and got sick of it! Forum mall and a ccd nearby it where we had a get together and spend hr's talking without being kicked out =) Another get together with family and inception movie in theatre! Bangalore central, big bazaar and the Rs.5 tender coconuts near silk board! Brigade road and Kfc where I couldn't eat because of my stomach's horrible state!

Barbeque nations was one of the awesome food places we went to. Took a little wandering around to reach the place but the 12hr fast and wandering was totally worth it in the end! A food buffet with awesome collection of food which tasted excellent and the hospitality was excellent too! Wised we had extra stomachs to taste all the stuff they provided. Moghal treat, a place near mango where we sometimes had our lunch. The best part about this place was the waiter who made it a point to always smile before he went to any table! And it had funny dishes like 'kastury kabab' :P Grilled sandwiches in ganesh juice centre(juices were bad here) was another awesome lunch option. But since I dint like having sandwiches for lunch, I would usually have curd rice in Krishna sagar, the place which gave stomach problems. Would never mind walking an extra mile to eat the freshly prepared paani puris near M.K Ahemed's(a supermarket, timepass hangout).

The last two days of the stay we did a lot..Drank tea from a road side gudanngadi in small cups which looked like vodka shots, sang out loud while walking on the street, went to sher khan late in the evening and ate a full grilled chicken, clicked crazy videos, got a superb sendoff, Mango t-shirts as mementos. How could they guess we wanted them? And the final goodbye's with mixed emotions.

This was One of my best vacations ever and best ever Bangalore trip. Fun, learning, good experience etc. it had everything. Thanks again to Bangalore king, aunty, uncle, google maps & Bangalore latlong service which helped us reach our dest correctly(well, most of the times) and mango for letting us intern there.

Someone…, You…, IF…...


Life is full of turns and twists, filled with happiness and sorrows. Life is not a fairytale or a movie with a happy ending where the hero singlehandedly fights through everything and tastes success no matter what happens. There are times in life when we are filled with emotions that can't be handled by us alone, times when certain things make you go insane and you feel you have lost all your wisdom, times when u feel you have nothing left here to live, times when you feel like burying yourself somewhere deep down so that you don't have to face the world; the people, times when you feel you're not worth anything to anyone.
Bad times.
At such times you need
someone,

Someone to whom you feel like pouring your heart out to
We, sometimes try to make ourselves and others believe that there's 'nothing' that's affecting us but,
this
Someone know there's 'something' hidden behind all your 'nothing`s'

At times we behave like stubborn mules, make our mind up to not let anything out and yet,
U feel
Someone knows the way to your mind better than u do!
They manage to extract words out of you so easily as if they were raindrops falling out of dark heavy clouds, ready to pour and make you feel a lot lighter…

Though we don't feel like, we smile and make everything seem ok. But,
Someone can sense something is wrong even when you are trying to smile
Someone knows what our 'I don't knows' mean..
and you know the list..
IF, you have met that
someone in your life then u need to know that someone is very very SPECIAL and is one who needs to be treasured!!


P.S: LOVE to all my special someone's! U all mean a lot to me!

(R)adium and Potassium(K) overdose kills!



This week has been a week with a lot of mood swings and frustrations leading to mini depressions at times. Things haven't been going the way I wanted them to. I have been getting screwed by lectures continuously. How can they ever expect us (at least me) to sit like robots in class! I can't. I can't do anything to stop my yawns. I don't mind if am called the 'yawning girl' or whatever but screwing my happiness for no mistake of mine is not ok! And am not even allowed to speak out in defense! Injustice! No, it's not class room. I call it a torture room.

The bad sessional papers have been adding to this! They have been coming after a specific time gap during which I go into a mini depression recover only to realize that there's another repeat recycle of the thing that just happened. And am sick of how come so less? / really? Don't lie... from people when I tell them my marks. Y ask when you can't believe? The only good thing I can take from this sessional is that I was honest and dint copy. Not that we weren't allowed to but I dint want to :)

What do I do? I make plans... Study this and complete this today…but nothing works leading to more frustrations... I try to concentrate in class and understand something but everything flies over my head. And then all weird thoughts start coming into my mind…like how am screwing my life, what a loser I am etc...

I want things to get back to normal soon! I want good marks in the next sessional and a good gpa so that I can prove some thing's to some people! As for the torture part, I can't do anything much, I guess. But I'll have to see that it doesn't affect my mood. Need to create a 'don't care' attitude towards rk, The Manufacturing defect!

Hope next week will be a good one for me. Will the dreamsparkyatra and rose distributions help? I want them to! I want to have a happy week. I want my plans to work!


P.S: T's fun to listen to people taunt and get taunted!
