Gym Again

Its gym time again. With the driving force from my room mate and his girl friend I started working out in gym. This time not FREE gym at office but @Endurance Fitness Club.  So my daily schedule changed since week. I am waking up at 5:45AM in the morning going t o gym by6:15 and working out til 7:30AM.  I made to do cardio and workouts on alternate days.  Legs were paining so much that I am unable to walk and climb steps. After workout we go to german bakery to have brown bread and honey melon juice. Then I leave for office at around 9:30AM. Now the real pain starts, sleep dominates me and disturbs me from doing work. I try to get rid of it by doing something or the other. Going early these days in the evening to home, cook and going early to bed. Still under severe pains .  Till now I used to think that nothing can be gained easily but realized today that nothing can be lost easily also (things like fat ).  .

 

Yet another one 2009

What did you do on 31st was the repetitive question one would generally face after entering in to new year.  Instead of  thinking about doing something on that single day, I introspected what have I done on all previous 364 days.  I can boldly say that I have achieved nothing which is very significant. On to 2009 carrying disappointment, frustration and of course little inspiration to reach farther goals. The last thing I did on last day of 2008 was that checking out hot girls coming out of pub located near our residential society standing from night 12 to 1.

I will narrate you now what have I done on 31st night and 1st the whole day. I usually have a habit of calling everybody almost on my contact list and wish them on any occasion (like new year). When I mentioned this to my room mate, he said every year you call everybody but did anybody called you on any new year, this time why dont you try a different approach. Dont call anybody, just see how many calls you will get. Just observe how many friends/relatives care about you rather than you care about everyone. I told him, My mother has 8 siblings and my father has 5 siblings and I usually call everyone and their children on these special occasions. These occasions are just to revive your relationships which were gradually disappearing over time. But he convinced me to do so. Ok, I then followed this strategy the whole 31st night. Literally no calls came even from best ever friends (forget about relatives). Of course my sister was the one who called me first. The next day also I got barely any calls from close friends and my one uncle.  I started calling everybody  without hesitation to prove I am not one of them. Of course some calls did not reach due to network problems. I was doing one or the other call till night 10.30 on Jan 1st. My friend made fun of me but I was just trying to behave  as usual.

Now a days people call only when they have very very happy news or very very sad news to share, otherwise you are just on a different island. Few people like my sir did not even reply to the mail to wish me back which was very unfortunate.  Following my friends strategy up to some extent I came to know about some facts. Dont crave to revive relation ship with all and everybody, just give your love who are very close, caring and loving.  In that way you will have some peace of mind which is enough to lead the life.

I wish all of you a happy and prosperous new year 2009. Hope I will get you nice postings on my blog. Bye!!!

 

Love Sucks

The thing that makes me irritating these days is one word “Love”. No matter you touch whom he will give a depiction of his tragedy of love and the emotions that he  is carrying on.  I have friends who are very jovial and enthusiastic now ceased to behave as before after females entering their life with concept called love. Unless with women, men are not emotional and sad.  I am missing my great friends and their great time with them as they are now spending their moments in depression and thinking about their fearful future.  I would attribute confusion as synonym to love.  Love is the biggest confusion I have ever come to know.

 

Warning……

I thought it was very happy pilgrimage to tirupaty until I spent the night in the return journey. It was a lesson and warning for the people travelling the train. It was my laziness, ignorance that caused the problem. Yes I am coming to the point where my bag was stolen from the train when I was returning from tirupaty. Of course there are no valuables as such except 5 pairs of clothes of mine and my friend.  How to react? What to do? were my questions. I filed a complaint though I know it will be of less value. At 2.30 in the morning I woke up suddenly from the upper berth and surprising to see my chappals which were kept under lower berth lying on the way. I immediately jumped down to see my bag missing which clearly shows the thief dragged the bag and hence chappals came outside from underneath the berth. It was a warning to all passengers to lock their baggage with the possible locks available or keep them near your place. Especially be careful when your berth is close to the door. My suffering should not be your lesson but not your suffering. Be careful…………

 

What is happening with me these days?

It has been very long that I put my words in the blog. My frequency of blogging was more before but it has been more days that I blog again since my recent post.  So many unwanted and unhappy things happening across the world amidst of the economic crisis the world is facing.  No body could have thought before that the advancements in the technology would be so destructive. Yes I am talking about the recent panic created in the India’s Economic Capital. I would express my deep condolences to the people across world who are victims of the ghastly incident.

The reason that I took so long for drop my another post here is that I was very involved in the work that has been assigned to me. First time I got a chance to work in the kernel. Working in the kernel is similar to keeping your hand at the trigger. If you done even small mistake system will panic.  I was so involved that I forgot the people around me  the time and food as well. Even I could not talk to my close friends as well. Of course I was rarely finding  caring and loving friends these days as everyone got enagaged and stuck in their own loops.  Blog is the best friend with whom I can share so many things.  Its been newly introduced in my company the month end christmas mandatory holidays. So been planning to go home. Also planning a tirupaty trip coming  week with friends.  Thats it ……………

 

Time for Layoffs

Its time for layoffs again in the company to meet the in the US Economic Crisis. It was announced by the company even internally and in press also that some percentage of the work force will be cut in the month of november. Tension gripping everybody. People are hating to be in the field of software as nobody knows what can happen in future. Its difficult to manage loans, expenses and family when these things happen so frequently.  I already seen in the news thay several companies had laid off so many employees. So guys be prepared mentally and be in a position to crack any other interview for any job.

 

Girl on the train

It has been long time since I blogged as I was on vacation for some time and busy with work for some time.  Finally a girl made me to blog one more here. I have travelled so many number of times by train since 6 years. I wish every time (I guess every guy wishes)  when I board a train that there should be  a beautiful girl around my berth. My wish so far not fullfilled until I saw a girl while coming to pune by konark express yesterday. She boarded from the same place as me. She is so beautiful, so traditional, chubby and she made me mad. She was in full red, adding to her complexion red dress on her is glowing like a rising sun.  Her smile is innocent, her eyes are magical and her words are so sweet like a child.  5 of her friends later joined and they were doing all time pass the whole day. From their conversations, I came to know almost everything about the girl. To dissolve your curiosity I did nothing not even exchanged a word with that girl except for couple of starings. Everytime I feel bore because of 22 hours long journey on train and will very anxious to reach  pune.  But yesterday it was different, I prayed to god that  train should be late. Thanks to the girl for making my journey go without boredom.

 

Paramhamsa Yoganandha

A friend  of mine motivated me to know about this great guru Mukund lal ghosh (now called Paramahamsa yoganandha). I was in station to catch train from Hyd to Pune and as still time left out for the trian to arrive, I just went and looking at the magazines and books in a shop. Its my usual habit to buy swathi weekly (telugu magazine) and spend time in the train. As I asked the shopkeeper he said swathi weekly is not available. My eyes were staring at the only book which was lying to my sight straight. I ignored and looking at something in telugu. Again my eyes focused on the book and small zeal in my blood forced me to pick that up. The book is “Autobiography of a Yogi”.  I turned the book upside down and the price is just 75 bucks. Not being sure whether I can read or not, I bought it and started reading in the train. The book has opened my mind to know about the real spiritual world which is far away to be understood by a normal man. The book portrays every phase in humans life and its spiritual background. It also refers bible. bhagavadgeeta and ellaborates few healthy statements. I was surprised to see that it is all the same which is written in all these books. But the interpretations by ignorant people varies and hence we have different opnions on them. It also explains the sincere relationship between guru and disciple. I liked every line of the book.  I can write more, more and more here but I suggest anybody to read the book to open up your spiritual eye. Its a myth that people should abandon worldy stuff to know and pursue spiritual path. This has also been debunked in this book.

 

Poor Marketing

When I went to spend some time on cafe coffee day yesterday I was shocked to listen to the marketing strategy of that area manager. Call it marketing strategy or something else I was very upset at the restrictions they have put. A lot may not happen over a coffee but lose over it.  When me and my friend ordered cafe latte and hot chocolate. He asked me what toppings I want on latte. This is a usual question in any ccd  and I politely refused that I dont want anything and I just need normal latte without any toppings.  He said topping is mandatory and they are not delivering normal coffee since one month. I told him you have to prepare coffee first and then put toppings, so bring me without putting toppings. He again refused saying this has been issued from area manager and should be followed. I told him that I am a freqent visitor to ccds and I have not seen this before. He then replied saying that some changes has been done here to meet the target. Despite being flexible, how can someone impose these kind of stupid restrictions on the customer.  Finally I have drunk the coffee with those toppins which absolutely made any difference. Last but not least coffee costed me 85/-(without tax). How stupid it was? I am not sure whether this restriction is in that specific area or all other CCDs.

 

its all the same

Its the same when some thing happens to you. Symptoms are same, journey is same. Yes its love. Its a no shock to me when my distant relative who is in his Btech called me and told that he is in love. I observed some form of silience while he was talking and he want to take my suggestion how to go about this complex and complicated process of love. Love starts with confusion, continues with imagination and ends up in frustation. Typically a normal guy from south who has fallen in love will immediatley think about marriage. Same way for the girl as well. According to my observation this is completelt different in north where guy really want to hang out for a while and later thinks whether the girl really suits for him. Girl the same. People from south think that its sin to love people and not marry them which I sincerely oppose. Love should be foundation for marriage rather than the reason for marriage. Especailly girls think in this way. And the guy gets ready to sacrifice his career for the girl and promises girl to fight with anyone to get done with the marriage. From the girls side, she just makes emotional statements which is the reason for the guy to act as in the previous statement. GIrls are instantly emotional, constantly sentimental and lately can forget anything. Love happens at an age when your career is just about to set a direction.  Smart guys will handle both giving more importance to career and equally balance love life. Some set ahead for love and completely forget the track of career.  By the time you realize about career its already out of track and you cannot revive it.  These are the result of immaturity and innocence and anxiety.

These are the thoughts just flowing in my mind when my relative told about his love. I did not say this to him because it would have hurt his feeling if I would have said. Let it be.  Truth and facts are the two things which hurts you always. I did not answer any of his questions but told him I cannot decide anything for you right now but I will tell you when time comes. Keep concentrating on your studies and forget about things that are going to happen after 3 to 4 years.
