Travelling to India guys...m excited!!

ok guys..

its absolutely sure now....I m visiting India.. :D......
hope to use my time quite nicely there.....and hope to complete all the pending craps!!

I dont expect to get a good lazy vacation as its all too hectic coupled wid a few train and flight journeys.....but nevertheless its home!! (oh i do consider Uganda my second home, but then the place u spent 23 yrs of ur life does have to be ur first home!!)...

I wud hav to miss BHH as i m leaving on the same day as it is slated on!!....sorry Jny...but i will make up for it next time around.

While in India....i wud like to talk to a few people pretty seriously...and harp to a few ones not so seriously...i want to buy things, which I thought wont be very useful and also things that i have waited to buy for ages now :D (dont worry I wud give u the names when I lay my hands on them)....

Basically its gonna be a spending spree...but then i hope the spending helps to erase some of the odds that i have been doing lately!.

Neways, good afternoon and a very good afternoon and morning for the rest of the 25 days..... I would surely miss UG...but I wud also like to see Ahmedabad again!!..

good day every one...and a very gr8 weekend and 3 more in advance!!...lol that was unnecessary....i m not leaving the cyberspace...I wud be writing!!
cheers

When u turn in naked, be ready for any size!!

ok...tis been long..since I stepped up here...
but this one here is not for tat.....this one is for a confession.....
its not always that u hear something and it comes out true..
I literally had that experience yestday.
For the last one week, I have caught up with this addiction of going to the Big C...
Yeah it lasted exactly a week...I m hopefully off it and will not really go back again in my life...

Regarding the Hearing.....someone sitting next to me uttered this same words!!
WHEN U TURN IN NAKED..BE READY FOR ANY SIZE..
how correct is that..isnt it..
Yestday literally I turned in naked and literally did one bizzare trick after another after another....and as I had turned in naked I waited for the size..and well the size turned out to be the largest....yeah watever, I m blabbering now...
But yestday nite has taught me some very very very valuble lessons in life (apart frm tht size talisman)
NOTHING IS FREE IN LIFE.....EVERYTHING HAS A PRICE TAG AND AGAIN ITS NOT SURE THAT EVEN AFTER PAYING THE PRICE YOU WOULD BE ABLE TO DERIVE THE BEST OUTTA IT....
You may ask, if I dint know that before...yeah I knw that before only theoritically.....but now I have practical knowledge of that stuff!! (all the 27 yrs of life, I have been a theoritical guy!!)..

Any ways as they say in a Hindi saying Deir Aye Durust Aye, which more or less means the same as Better late than Never!!...

Thanx God for giving me a practical explanation of the same. Totally grateful!!
Cheers
hope to have a happy weekend

Mood: After yestday's debacle, I m kinda in a zombie state of mind...but I will buck up!!

Some Market Research can do good!!

lol @ expansion and technological advancement may be!!
I was at my roadside friendly pirated dvdwala....sorry guys, I dont buy it intentionally to harm the movie industry.. I dont get to catch out this movies at theatres here!!
The ones I could watch at Cineplex, I dont buy, but with 4 screens and 3 movies a week...i cant get all the movies tat I would have loved to see....Eg. Twilight never got released here...so where do u watch it (oh nevertheless I hated the movie, it sucked bigtime, donno how gals loved it!!)....

So coming to the point, I couldnt find any good movies at the dvd guy, so I jst accidently happen to ask him that where I would get the ones that I require, he replies back "YOU SHOULD TRY OUR OTHER NEW BRANCH BEHIND WILLIAM STREET" I said wow, mmbu, even u have started to branch out and enjoy the fruits of marketization and market research may be!!.... Well market research because, William Str. is no doubt one of the busiest place around, and the junta (public) which passes by would take a minute or two to stop and gap at the collections the guy got!!....amazing and good to see (not the piracy business, but the business sense the guys behind the stall had!!).....
Mood: M happy for them, even though I dint get anything this week from them....

Happy weekend

Khana Khazana and THE LASS

oh boy o boy...the food at Khana Khazana rocks......it is jst amazing.....I loved it.

Lemme start from the Start..My houseowner(LANDIE) gave a treat for his daughter's birthday and of all the places he chooses KK.....I m particularly not a fan of KK, first due to the fact that its always crowded, second the food is not as spicy as to my taste (which I lately discovered was due to the fact that the cuisine is Muglai there, which bases itself on cream, cashewnuts etc.) and thirdly the food is rather pricy and I dont like to pay much for food which I cant thoroughly relish...

Anyways it wasnt my treat and so tagged along and off we go to KK...and boy I was in for a surprise!!...the Landie has some magic mantra in his charm, he got a huge table for the 10 of us in a fully packed restau...then when the food starts arriving, its amazingly different from what I have had here previously....the chicken is spicy, atleast by Ugandan standards, its spicy..the paneer is good as well and the starters are also amazing... So the end point is I would be giving it a try again (i.e. when my pocket allows me!!)..

By the way, the reason I thought of jotting down this post is not only appreciating the food, but also giving a thought on how people think and what do they think!!

The table next to mine was seated a dusky Indian beauty....its quite rare to find single Indian gals here... So was jst thinking..what do people think when they r alone!! (me and my wild fantasies)..... then some random sloppy US/UK trained Indian guy wid his muzungu (firang) lass..and thus breaks my antics of trying to flirt up something wid the dusky beauty...

Anyways the point was, how amazing it would be if I got power to listen to people's conversations...lol..even better if I had the power to learn wats on people's mind...well not for malicious purposes, jst for the sake of it (oh then how do u differentiate what is malicious and wat is not!!)...wat say u ppl, wont it be amazing to have something like tat...

Well the end point is that I fall in crush and infactuation and love and life and blah blah everything wid every third gal (mayb its bit more may be 5th wud be better!!)...and so this gal also comes and goes..from the company she had, she could be working for some NGO or UN office or some MNC (oh MNCs dont employ expat Indians unless u r bloody out of the MNC country!!) So the point is that I wont be meeting the lady again, not in this lifetime atleast....lol
chal leave evrything, I think I m still high from last nite's two beer....I hope to quit beer altogether.....AND START WID VODKA TONITE!!
HAHA
HAPPY WEEKEND
mood: happy for the weekend!!!

Touch FM prize and more!!

Hey guys, this week has been one of the best weeks till now.

First things first, I m famous..lol..atleast in some ways and with some section of the audience.

I won a prize of UGX 50,000 at Touch FM in their morning breakfast show for a contest called Clueless. Lol it has been my most lucky week it seems till now. I actually won the prize the second day as well, but then the Radio station has some rules that you cant win twice!! Anyways I would be collecting the prize on Friday and hope to have a pretty decent enough weekend!

Regarding the famous bit, well my name has been revebrating the radio waves at regular intervals atleast Touch FM breakfast show does say it out!

In other things, my folks ask for my views on a marriage proposal (seemingly the first one till date & which btw, I mean marriage thingie, I m not totally interested into right now). Dont know if it was for good or bad, but I have postponed the planning to another more distant future timing.

The week before also had some good and bad news, one of my oldest and the best friend got married (and I dont mean Ms. A, well she is a friend but donno if oldest and best r appropriate enough adjectives for her). Akku got married on 12th and the sad bit was tat as usual I couldnt visit him or be part of the marriage. Damn the job man, the only problem working overseas is this one. You dont get to be with your friends and loved ones on their special days!!

Anyways, by the time I finish off this draft, its already Monday with all its mood shifting and stuff!!...

As for the weekend update, I had a great weekend, had beer @ a friend's home and then for God knows what reason, we went to Bubbles O leary..yeah my first time there, atta boy with all the buzungus (the Goras), the place sure looks out of this world (wid me having only experienced steak out, mateos and the other pubs out there in kabalagala, it was a good change)....neways cudnt quite flirt with the peace of mind, as I had 2 beer more than my quota, so it was kicking me up the head!!...neways will try to try it out again some other time....but as for now m looking forward to tomorrow at Cineplex for Nite at the Musuem II (@ UGX 6K, isnt it a deal brothers) and for the Reggae nite @ Steakout wid my favourite Moonberg @ 1.5K each(amazing!!)... If neone interested to join, bing mee.....m gonna be alone both days!!....or if you read this a bit late..u can join me next week as well..I would be at the same place!!

Challo then bbyes for now
cheers
have a great week ahead!! and again, hav become a big big fan of Touch FM.

Movies, Moves and Me

okay, it has been long since I have written an iota here. Well as usual, work has been one of the culprits, but then boredom and laziness has been stronger in me not penning down nething.

Sure enough, today I actually got some trully interesting topic to write on. One of my favs, Movies.
The last few weeks have been no short than a marathon in terms of watching movies.
I have watched movies left right and centre (both politically and literally!!)
I saw Korean films, Japanese, Chinese Porn (the other orientals were not porn!!). Then I saw some Jason Statham movies, the Transporter Trilogy and I somehow feel that they should just continue the series (even though the idea becomes a bit repetitive, but who cares as long as the non-stop action is kept coming). I have become a bit of a fan of him and m still scourjing for his other titles, kick ass love it!!

Neways apart from all that, one movie that I was totally surprised by and which I again loved by my whole heart was Dev D. Well the story is seeemingly the same old, not much of a change, but wherever the chances are made, they r awesome, inspiring and strong enuff to make me go out on my byke and try to emulate somethings from the movie!! (not the drugs and stuff!!) The coincidence lies in the fact that I had been having abnormally high amount of Vodka (the same protagonist has in the movie!) Amazing movie, amazingly beautiful direction and the lead ladies are jst wow, be it Paro or Chanda....loved both of them and cud had gone further than jst love with both of them!! (yeah I have strained myself for words). As for Abhay Deol (Dev), I have loved all his movies from Socha na tha, Ahista Ahista, Manorama, Oye Lucky Lucky Oye and all the rest. Seriously the actor is natural and I did love to watch him act in more movies.

Anyways I got another posse of movies in my DVD collections which remain there to be watched and relished by me. So I hope to keep on writing about movies again. Though not as a review but jst for passing time. m not very well compatible wid writing reviews as reviews can only be written by people who r flawless themselves when it comes to be criticizing some one!! great thoughts na :D..I know I know...I take the bows and salutations!!

Huge Glad PS: By the time I m ending this post, I have in my pockets the almost half collection of Jason Statham!! Amazing na!!

I m totally sorry dear all for being so slack in writing.

Its the one of the many things I like the best (yeah one of the many).

So what have i been upto? Well nothing much as such. Except for the fact that I have been roaming around here and there. Went to some much anticipated and waited places in and around Kampala during the Easter holidays. 

To name a few I went to Lido Beach, Kiwatule Recreation Park, Didi's World (actually one of the most anticipated, I dont remember being to a fun fair and being part of rides :'(..). But I missed out on Baha'ai Temple, I had been looking to vist that place for ages now and hoped i would make it thru this easter but no...no luck this time around. But I had a blast this Easter, enjoyed thoroughly. For the first time in my life jumped into a pool of water, without knowing how to swim, went to a real, clean beach again for the first time (Juhu and Chaupati cant be termed as beaches, you cant touch the waters there!! its damn dirty). Did all that and more.

Anyways the hangover over with and did dealing with everything important in life, went out to roam around a bit on Saturday, after a long gap of TWO WEEKS :D.. Sat at the same hangout of Steakout. Sat there till 12 or 1, dont remember much especially after a third Moonberg, I m not very sobre. But yeah do remember, meeting a very beautiful lady there on the bar and offering her a drink as well(I have turned bold) and in turn not getting a boot on the head but, she accepting the invitation and banging for a Alvaro. I couldnt really believe that there can be girls in Uganda, who do booze but given the fact that it was free booze coming from my pocket, they dont accept it. Atleast till now, I have only come across girls who do go for the lurch, if you offered anything free to them. But this chick was jst unbelievable settling for an Alvaro, which btw is a non-alcholic, non tasty, soda water with a tinge of raw pineapple, I would had preferred a Pepsi Pineapple (hold your breaths, we have it here, even I was shocked) to that.

Anyways that ended there, I dint go any further than talking to her about her football affiliations which interestingly and again not to my taste turned out to be ManU, and me being a ardent Gunner (Arsenal) cudnt quite digest sitting with a Reds gal. But that apart the company was good and at 1.00 I left off to home and watched a movie, played Capitalism (I m hooked and addicted to it, a strategic business game) and bumped off at 3 or 4.

Chal thats all for the time being from me.
will write more abt the next time I go out, definitely will try some other place than Steak Out, may be Chi bar or may be Punchline in Kabalagala.

The Saturdays and the Routine!!!

Its been a long time since I wrote something..just like any other blogger, I too feel the uncomfort  and botheration of whether someone would be reading the posts that I keep on bumping off..

Anyways, right now I m trying to figure out what catches on to my head on a Saturday, its as if I m a totally different person on Saturdays, I do things, that aren’t meant to be done by me. I visit places, which I guess I wont be visiting on normal days (its not that they are bad places or hell or anything, they just differ from the normal waterholes I m used to). Even this Saturday I did something maiden, which I don’t think I would have had the guts to do on normal days. That’s me, cannot explain why all that happens to me.

Okay, in other things, there’s lotsa things happening with life and it seems to me as if I m standing at such stage of life, where I can make or break myself and the people surrounding me. That had been the case, when I was studying in my high school and that was even the case in my college. Well, I dint make great decisions in my high school or dint do anything in my college as well to correct the mistakes of my high school. At this point of time, the only thing that comes to my mind and the folks whom I can pinpoint to for some of my lewd decisions have to be my teachers and even me myself. Ours was a pretty bland school, which paid more of an attention to the disciplinary side and making students independent (I m actually grateful to them for all that stuff), but they couldn’t provide anything worthwhile in terms of career planning or the career growth of their students. The school was too new at that point of time and I sincerely hope that they have improved and have a career placement cell or something to lead their students. For the uninitiated, my school was called Maharaja Agrasen Vidhyalaya.

Well the reason for my current blabber is a movie called Revolutionary Road, staring Leonardo Dicapario and Kate Winslet. I wont say that it’s a great movie, going by what people have reviewed, but its worth a watch. Any one going thru a mid-career crisis and pressures should watch it. Well it does turn out to be tedious and engrossing at the end and I actually thought that the director had lost his way and couldn’t find a way to end it. Anyways that’s of the end, but thru the mid of the movie, its great and I could actually equate my situation with what Frank (Leonardo) was going thru.

In other other things happening in the world, my boozing has stopped to a minimal beer bottle on Saturdays or two depending on my pocket and the company I have. And in personal life, I cant determine, whether I hate her or love her more, but then I console myself saying that this may be the part of the self imposed de-addiction that I m taking to forget her , but its far from over and I m miles away from forgetting her. damn….

The week has just started and its gonna be a very small week, true for the next week as well as its Easter. I haven’t planned on going any place as yet, but there was a plan for Murchison Falls, but it hasn’t materialized (as of Saturday) coz we couldn’t get room bookings at such a small notice and some of the group member (about 16 of us planned) had a change of mind of sorts when they heard about the planned expenses, roughly about Uganda Shillings 600,000 (US$ 320), well it does seem to be on the higher side, but Murchison Falls and game ride should be worth it.

That seems to be all of my talks for the moment, would write again next week to inform what I did with the pathetically huge weekend (yeah I hate holidays except if I m going to India in holidays, which is not the case on Easter!!)

Cheers

The Update and How to impress a man and woman!!!!

I have been on a sabatical of two weeks or so..
I dont have any reasonable reason to write of why I m not blogging.
I have been reading people post and enjoing that element of the blogging.

Yesterday, I was going through some of my old back up cds and interestingly I came up with this. It isnt my own creation, I m not even remotely capable of coming up with stuffs like the ones listed below. When I used to work at IIMA, somehow, I got access this sharing platform, where I could go into the network drives of the students. It was an unexpected bonus, as the students had lots of good stuffs posted on their network (inclusive of latest english movies, latest e-books, pornos and many other interesting stuffs). The point here being that I got many interesting tidbits and while its has been over 2.5 yrs tat I quit tat place, the things I put on my back-up cds are still relevant.

Below is an example of the same:

HOW TO IMPRESS A WOMEN 

COMPLIMENT HER,

RESPECT HER,

HONOUR HER,

CUDDLE HER,

KISS HER,

CARESS HER,

LOVE HER,

STROKE HER,

TEASE HER,

COMFORT HER,

PROTECT HER,

HUG HER,

HOLD HER,

SPEND MONEY ON HER,

WINE AND DINE HER,

BUY THINGS FOR HER,

LISTEN TO HER,

CARE FOR HER,

STAND BY HER,

SUPPORT HER,

HOLD HER,

GO TO THE ENDS OF THE EARTH FOR HER,


HOW TO IMPRESS A MAN

 SHOW UP NAKED,

BRING FOOD

Isnt it jst amazing...It may not be genuinely written by me, but even then its fun to read....more of such amazing stuff to come in the later posts!!!!

Who would cry when you die?

Quite an unusual title for a blogrite of a alive and very much kicking person. Well I m compelled to write it. Oh for that matter a dead person cant be writing a blog. Anyways 23rd morning, Monday, first day of the week, first thing I see outside my office is a speeding matatu knocking off a lady. The lady is flung about a 6 feet screaming out. A very sad start to the week. Very sadly, the lady couldn’t move even a bit. A hit and run case but then some good Samaritan ran after the matatu and brought him to the spot of accident. I was in total shock but then we can do anything.

Cut back to my journey to Jinja (about 100 km frm here), the same day. There’s this conversation with my driver, lets call him ‘M’ regarding the same. The talk is put in exact same way as it went through:

Me: I saw an accident very deadly near our office. I think the lady wont survive.

Driver M: It is God’s wish

Me: But the vehicle hit her at a very high speed and it is a LIFE. It would be bad if she doesn’t survive.

Driver M: If God had wished her to die, she would die. If God had plans for her then she would had died even after being hit at a very low speed as well.

Me: Wow, you don’t care for a life or what!! Due to some other person’s mistake she would lose her life. Ok even if its not about her own life, what about the persons who were dependent on her. She could have been supporting a whole lot of people, who in turn would turn destitute due to her death.

Driver M: God will look after then.

Me: will God feed them and give them clothing and other necessities as well?

Driver M: Yes he will.

Me: What have those people at the mosque thought u up (he is a Moslem). One has to feed ourselves, one cannot depend on God for everything, otherwise we will starve to death. We should have belief in God but never put everything on Him.

Driver M: You know what I lost my father at the age of 2 and God helped me survive.

Me: Its not about how you survived. Its about the pains that your mother took in growing u up. You can say that God helped you live out but you cant leave everything on God only.

That conversation ends there. He is quiet and I didn’t say anything more. I had such discussions with him many a times.

My driver is a Muslim. No I don’t have anything against muslims. I got many muslim friends out there in India. I had a very close Muslim friend, with whom I used to share food and many a thoughts as well. But then this type of dependence and putting everything that’s ill on God, is something which I have not seen in them or there. Its only here that I have seen this. I had this debate about God and things etc. may a times with my driver, but then stopped short of having a fight with him because of the fear of being bashed up. Hehhehehehe… he seems stronger than me. Lol

In other things, Govt. calls for a scheme of health insurance. Good thought, if action taken in good faith. But then workers declined to take in the scheme. For their part they are also correct, 4% of salary for me wont be nothing as I can call myself pretty well to do. But for an average Ugandan, who earns like 300,000 – 400,000 (USD 150-200), it would be a big amount (well for that matter earning USD 200 is a big amount in India as well, for me as well, but that fact requires a different post and entry). Couple all this to the 10-15% which they tend to put into a hole called NSSF (Social Security) and then again cant withdraw that amount or take a loan on that amount and then again something like Temangalo happens, it feels bad (for anyone).

Lastly some food for thought, I thought about it many times, you too do so.

I had read somewhere that in Uganda, for Ministry of Health, the four wheel drive Land Cruiser Vehicles outnumber Ambulance by a ratio of about 20:1. i.e. 20 LCVs for each ambulance. If you don’t believe me then check out any Govt. vehicle with a M after the number plate and then tell me how many of them are Land Cruisers and how many of them are Ambulances!!!!

Cheers and have a great week ahead!!!

Saturday, the 7th of Feb and UGANDA m here to stayyy!!!

Saturday night, and at doldrums. Had food at Temple (yeah as a tribute to God, I will never forget the food I m having, I totally thank God for that) and didnt want to had back home and sleep (waste) the saturday off. So headed to Rock to get my roomie. Found him engrossed into dancing and singing there, thus ensuring that I sat ther and watched a perfect Liverpool vs Porthsmouth weekend EPL Match, as Liverpool was losing and me being a eternal Goonner was loving it. Then the unprecedented happened, that in the 85th minute bloody Reds got away from a 2-1 defeat to a 3-2 win. Bloody how can that happen!!! was totally disraught, keeping in mind that Gunners are at the 5th place (damn). 

Well, I actually dont like Rock as its too crowded with Indians and the place isnt what it used to be in the early 2008s (thats what the old veterans tell here). So headed off to some other place. I particularly couldnt think of any specific place, so headed off to The Venue@ Garden City. Boy, wow is the place, I loved it, economical place to have a couple of beers without being disturbed. So lets come to the real reason why I am writing this entry. 

The Venue had seemed to me a place popular with youth, mostly collegians and also a place that I regarded was alien to me. Yep I was correct with the first presumption and wrong with the second, I loved the place. I had a beer and was about to walk off when a group of youngsters walked in and turned the place lively wiht all the energy and dancesteps that they brought in with them. I waited and enjoyed the group, had two more beers. Wow the energy they have. They danced, they frollicked, took pics and damn made me miss my youth. Its not that I m as old as hell, m still in my 20s. The grouping, the late nights, the all nite outings, the booze, the smoke, the dance.

One thing that I would try to do is head back to college. Stay in a hostel, study, flunk and LIVE LIFE. I had thought and said about it time and again this two years I spent in Uganda.

Lastly, but never the least I have finally got a word on my increment-payhike. But its still under suspense, as I m not sure if I should accept 25% or 50% hike. But by the time I m typing this out, I have accepted a 38% hike. hehehe. m loving it, absolutely loving it.

KAMPALA,  UGANDA - m here to stay....
NOTE: ALL THE ABSOLUTELY PERFECT ANSWER HAVE COME TO ME IN THE LAST WEEK!!!! SO I WILL CHERISH THE 6TH AND 7TH WEEK OF 2009!!!! 

cheers, absolutely full cheers

My musing the post stuff...read it to understand the heading!!

Note: was to be published yesterday night but due to my current temperory situation of unavailability of resources, I couldnt do it, and this post effectively puts through my condition last night...nevertheless let me enjoi!!!

I am absolutely drunk and drunk on two NILES, thats the worst way to get drunk. Its a monumental time for me. Its actually fucking cool and mindboggling to have a first, its the first time ya mind me first time someone has rejected my phonecall, but again there always has to be a first to everything. And as I said in a previous entry, I dont bloody care if anyone reads this entry or not, its for me and only me. I just live for myself, the egoistic, self centric me is back to the fore, anyone likes it or not. I wont say that its the first time I fell for someone but I would perfectly say that its the first time I seriously thought that I could be spending a life wid someone. Well my thoughts are blabbering as I m absolutely drunk, but then its time to rejoice also as I had the most perfect statement of rejection.

At least now the mind doesnt waver back to the same distraction again and again. Atleast the bloody heart doesnt go back to the same heart as yesterday. I aleast got a bloody answer to my years of contemplation, misendeavours, misunderstandings and misthoughts (years wud be bit of a overstatement, but who care, i dont!!).

As I wrote earlier, I cant publish this post, coz I m a living hell, I dont have a home of my own, I m living in a paying guest accom, which absolutely sucks, but then who cares, I dont, do you!!!, but then its good actually, it will allow me to save some more pennies which I could safely utilize towards my dream house and the EGYPT trip. I m damn going on that trip and cruise that accompanies it. Whatever the bloody cost is!! and m also going to get married in that dream house, again whatever the bloody cost is gonna be!!! 

I will check this notes 2 years down the line and no doubt will cherish what I did and wrote today. Falling in love isnt a crime right? Its a perfectly beautiful thing to do . A very enriching experience, but what's bad is letting it turn into an obsession. Thinking what the world would think about it. I perfectly adore my sister for what she did. She bloody married a person of her choice from a different community and background and I would surely salute her for that and will do it all my life. Why did I get her guts, bloody me. But then, I take solace thinking that whatever happens, will happen for good, as good as gold or even better as diamond.

As one of my closest friend said, "I dont regret what I did, I just regret that I dont have any control over what others do or did." Absolutely loved it throughout. A perfect statement to end a blog I have been longing to write..

m cheering now
cheers

The Latest Win and the Latest CRUSH!!!

And WE won the CECAFA Football Cup.....wow for a change we beat Kenya in some sport or rather some activity... (Not intended to be derogatory, coz Uganda is too weak in cricket to beat Kenya). 
We defeated the Kenyans hands and foots and everything else down. Though I didnt watch it coz it was on weekday. I loved to hear about it. LONG LIVE UGANDAN FOOTBALL AND KEEP WINNING, Next time, we will qualify for the African Nations Finals and if God wishes even the WORLD CUP (2015 atleast!!)

Anyways, theres' this beauty working in CB, whom I have seen in CB and who lives just the next door to my office, she happens to be my latest crush. She is such a beauty that today morning when I saw her I felt like heaven on earth. I m totally out for her, utterly butterly done in for her. And to complicate things for me, she even looks South Indian, wow. And as a bit of Indianness is still left in me, I will refrain from asking her anything or doing anything. damn, I m so inane.

Well thats a lost cause (at least it seems to me, as I m the only one who seems to have noticed her and like my former crushing crushes, I m sure about the results!!!).

In other things, Mengo region is fun to live in. The house is on top of a hill and the breeze is absolutely awesome. The morning are cold, the evenings are also cooler, it hasnt rained yet but then I m loving it with my whole heart. Coupled with all this, at night you can see the whole of Kampala from the side of the house. Isnt it amazing. This city is blessed from the palm of God. I m hoping against hope that I dont leave this city (but then all that depends on destiny and I m a Destiny's Child (;D)

That seems to sum up my mid week post.
cheers and waiting for the weekend (though this weekend would be pretty bland, coz frnds arent arnd...damn)

A later Happy New Year to all

Happy New Year to ya all people.
Its a bit late wish, but its better late than never.
So whats new in the New Year, except for the fact that I broke the new year resolutions the very night of 31st.
We were at Nawab Restaurant, which hadnt been my first choice for the 31st eve. We did regret the decision, due to the fact that it had a buffet system of food and the crowd was unbearable, all this coupled with the price tag of abt UGX 30,000/-. But then as the night progressed and the crowd wanned, it became more and more fanfare. Nawab as always has been good in the matter of food, so we didnt have to worry about that. For the first time we tried mutton there and it was mindblowingly good. The masala and the marrination was perfect (atleast when it was hot) and it did make a great bitting for the beers. Only sad thing is that Moonberg is not available in most of the restaurants here. May be they have to do something about their network.
The new year has been eventful. After a tough and very dull month of December in which surprisingly we worked for only about a 15 odd days only(due to this and the credit crunch and all the other blah blah, the sales were at an all time low for the year), January has brought a whiff of life into business. Sales has been not particularly bad, to say the least. It has picked up very well and nicely, though at a slow pace, but then something is better than nothing.
Now the new year resolutions, I had resolved not booze much, which I broke the very next day and had it for like a week continously on and off. But then now, its reduced to a large extent. The change of residence has a lot to do with it. The old gang of guys had nothing else to do other than booze together (well even now i dont have much to do, but then m not boozing as well).
In other news Warid had this ka greatest scheme I have seen in Uganda, they were giving 100% free bonus airtime on whatever you load. That made me reactivate my Warid Line again and dump the Uganda Telecom line as my secondary line (Sorry UTL, you have been my first line, I will always cherish that). So the scheme saw my phone having a loaded airtime today of about UGX 37982, thats like the highest I m having in my lifetime on a prepaid line. Its like 1000 INRs that is wow. But then Warid scheme is due to end in 3 dyas, so I hoarded as much as 37982 UGX and when you include it with the 30000 that I got as bonus, it makes it a whooping 67892 in my account, isnt that wowww...yes it is.
And ya the new year started off quite well in terms of personal life as well, I got (atleast for now) a permanent house to live in, even though its a pg accomodation. Then I as told before I have reduced on the alcohol intake by a huge margin, then again I stopped just minutes close of proposing to someone and then regretting it very next moment. Well donno why m I getting into this. Neways, new year has been again and again as good as it gets, and hope it remains the same way for the rest of the year.
cheers
