Time, Mishaps & Ano-moolies

Sigh, long time since updated my blog. Reasons? Not many, some rather personal stuff to take care of, but nevertheless very important stuff, they could not be ignored. Anyways, enough with why I didn’t write anything earlier. Since it’s a new year, so let’s reminisces on what all happened in between.

A major event was my trip to God’s Own Country, the beautiful state of Kerala. Made that trip with parents, of course. (I am considered a big bore or sometimes snotty, sometimes a snob, other times some other adjective, to go on a trip…so people avoid me, anyways...). Visited a few places like Cochin, Munnar, Thekkady, Kumarakom, Alleppey, Thiruvananthpuram-Kovalam. The trip was via Chennai, so had a chance to go to Marina Beach too. Since I hv forgotten most of what I did in that trip, so writing a travelogue won’t be possible. But I do hv some pics to show…on picasa...

Right. Apart from this, there was again my failed attempt to get through any MBA exam, though my peers in other fields are excelling, which is actually creating a situation which throws only one question everyday at me, “Do u want really to move ahead or not?” I mean, Ya I want to but I don’t hv any idea how. Anyways, this fight between my concerned mind and my confused mind would go on for some time(maybe some years, and we can name that period as Some Years War, or Battle of Minds, or something to put it in history books and increase the syllabus for school children…..)

Also, we (as in my friends and me) had some light and some dark moments at this time…of which I remember nothing……had some eat-outs….Dipak’s bday….3 major festivals(my apologies if I miss any)….

Worth remembering thing is that our small company got a major job project to do for the Oil Sector biggie. Imagine a work force of mere 100 people to work on a project which requires 5-6 times the strength. Is this another “300” in making? But we will have to change the name….

Another thing worth remembering is my purchase of Nokia E72, the latest QWERTY from the Finnish company. Till now I hvnt explored my new possession completely…but with time, I will master it….

Hey, did I tell u guys, that I even got a DELL laptop with mobile broadband internet connection? Doesn’t matter.

One thing that happened, which I will never forget…the 31st night….a tragedy that actually made me think that life is too fragile and too unpredictable…..
Other trivial things during this time were some marriages, some nice movie releases like AVATAR 3D, 3 IDIOTS, KAMINEY and so on.., my Bday (Ya, a very trivial thing...for actually most of them…)….apart from other things…..

You must be wondering about the title….(those who know me are actually not wondering about it…because they know only I can come up with such stupid title, anyways)…..I did describe what all took place in the period between my last blog and this one….so that comes under TIME……some mishappenings like the 31st Dec night one….comes under MISHAPS….but what the hell is ANO-MOOLIES…..? Yesterday, when there was nothing to do, I visited my blogs of my friends….which inspired my to visit mine too. Since, blog sites are blocked in our office, so had to use a proxy server…( No, I wont eveal the proxy name; won’t want either u or me to get into trouble)…..Since it had been 6 months since my last post, so the total hitcounts at that time was 500+. But the proxy server showed a staggering 1 Miliion+, with daily visits of 500+. Now that was something which made me jump with joy and spill half of my coffee on the table….but then again, I thought, It can’t be…I have total faith in my writing…and so many people wouldn’t hv visited…so I asked my friends to check it out, which confirmed that I cannot be more popular than already what I am. So that anomaly on the tech part stunk like Mooli ke Paranthe (Mooli-a seasonal vegetable from India, available mainly in winters. In English we commonly know it as Raddish. Paranthas are Indian oil baked pancakes, eaten with different types of vegetables, assorted curry preparations and stuffings.)

So that sums up the title of the day……more updates to this blog are suppose to follow….I mean…I wud try to update more frequently…..which anyways doesn’t matter….whose gonna read them anyways? Ha ha….

Ciao…..
