I can't do this all

I can't do this all on my own coz m no m no m no superman!!!

Just thought I should write this!! For no apparent reason at all!! Well keep guessing there are reasons!!

Enjoy the start of the thought of a great weekend ahead

Well been a long time

It's been sincerely a long time since I last came here and visited.

I thought it would be a good time to restart this blog again.

I m a screwed up banker now, in a place which I have no idea about, with responsibilities which I m fear to uphold.

All this year has been very eventful in the fact that I have been able to get settled in my job and many other things, which i would be disclosing in this post or the posts that follow.

First things first, the job, for a change, I thought that there is a job which I could be doing all my life. Yes I do intend to be a career banker, I m starting to somewhat love the banking sector, even though I m into retail banking. 

All the jobs that I have done, I have loved and enjoyed each one of them to the hilt. I have also regretted quitting each one of them at a later stage and I have always rued the next job which I have managed to jump into. But then here for a change, I m starting to like this job of being a banker.

My sudden passionate love for this job could be due to the fact that this was my last real chance at having a secure job!!! (I m not sure whether its a right term to use or not SECURE JOB :)) or it could be the fact that I was at a point in time during the last few months in a very strong and committed relationship with a REAL PASSIONATE GIRL(more on her and a full dedicated post for that one is the least I could do for her for all that I couldnt do for her!!).

Life moves on, I have come to know and learn. Years pass by and time flies, in no time, each one of us will be as old as one can get and on the verge of our life's end. 

Till that time comes, we should be living life in a way as modest as we can!!.....

For the time being I m here in Rae Barelli, putting up a strong face amongst a hard time and trying to pull my life together after a few pitfalls.

Annuragavillochagan Ayi!!...nice song...

Its just a courtesy post.

m in India, for all those who r tracking or care to track me (there shouldnt be many on that front!!)..

Should be giving some good news in all this days of despair and pain!!..(well will surely write about it all in a very new post!!)

Anyways I was listening to this song from a malayalam movie called NeelaThamara (Anuragavilochagan ayyii)....a seriously mind provoking song, very sweet, very thoughtful and upteemly melodious to the ears.

As a matter of fact, the movie is being shown on Surya TV tomorrow (Sunday, 23rd Jan,2o11) @ 4.00 pm. Havnt got much hopes on the movie being good from what I heard from people. But will give a try!!...

Do try to listen the song, its truly melodious...

trying hard to cheer.

Blood Diamond!!

its been long..and it has to be long.
the real reason for this post is that i finally watched blood diamond, a movie par excellence and worth watching more than once..
being in africa (well m out of it now :(..)...i have been able to connect to the movie....the suffering and the war, the struggle, the way of living, the whores, the diamonds, the beer absolutely everything....

in short i have loved the movie, for the first time i m not regretting paying 89rs for the english movie and entertainment package on sun direct (digital cable service).....hope to watch more thought provoking movies on WB etc.!!!

in other things, m here right now in Ahd, doing whatever i want (that was rather what I was doing in UG as well).
will update more later!!!
cheers

Sorrow!!

Who will cry when u (or it shud be I) die??...
effectively it shud had been the title of the post.
but then it doesnt matter as when u die, u dont blog...
neways i have been near death many times in the past few months.....today is the lowest i feel and the most depressed..have been let down by every one, i m with anyone whom i cud call a friend.
M feeling more helpless than i was when i first came here 4 years back. At tat time as well I dint have any friends, and so its the same now..
where does the dieing bit come from.
well it comes from the fact that my life, future, career, everything i was and m in love with has been screwed beyond recognition. I feel that prostitute who encountered Bidandi Ssali during his election rally..lolz..
I can even laugh in all this adversities...but then the laugh is just short lived as i know is my sweet little life...
good day life and like...i loved you very well, but dont know till when will you be around with me for that enjoyment...

trying to cheer..

music: it was a fusion of African Music from all round Africa, but now its Arabic beats on TOUCH FM.....I LOVE U TOUCH!!!

BHH and people u meet at BHHs!!

Ok. now its confirm, the shout has gone one to a whimper and the commitment to blog has waned.

The individuality and the creativity is at an all time low of 10% (10% of what..i donno, so dont ask me)...

I thought I shud be blogging today, jst to make it clear that I would be coming to BHH, wherever it is to happen, whatever time it is to happen. This post has to be dedicated to the BHH phenomenon.

Just a few minutes back, I read this article about the people you meet at a Bloggers/tweeterers meet!!.....and laugh at it as it is too correct to be correct.... I think we also meet such kind of people.

Kindly go through the list, as I dont think replicating it here would be quite a justice to the author..

the link goes http://www.flyyoufools.com/page/9 ...

And the rest of the posts are also hillarious...

I hope I would be able to find someone at the BHH today, as I have been skipping the Meets all through the last 3 months..

If anyone reads this and knows that the MEET has been shifted some other place than Mateos, then Please sms me (0712665461, if u got UTL then good going, smses are free... ha i know bad joke!!, but then pardon me as I mentioned about my creativity at the max lowest!!)....

Anyways, happy blogging...guys

This has to reach the ears of people!!....a law attrocity!!

Hi guys,

This post was not actually planned, but some extraordinary events yesterday caused me to pull up my socks, jumpers, vests and everything that is mine and write this post.

There is a warning though, please forgive the FOUL and EXPLICIT language that I m due to use in this post. The mental state was/is such that I have to use those foul words.

It all starts in the evening around 9.30 pm, we (me and my roomie) have our dinner and as usual move out for our usual evening quota of walks and rest outside our premises in the open. It is all well as we walk for a while and then exhausted we sit nearby for a few minutes. Its all good till now.

In comes the trouble, a group of 6 police guys come around (yeah they r the trouble, not some thieves or robbers, who robbed me on the highway!!), and to them we look as we were a threat equivalent to ALQAEDA or LASKAR -E -TAIBA. If they had asked us to just walk off and go home keeping in mind our safety as it was dangerous to lurk around town, then I wont had any problem.

But the problem came when the M*****F***** constable, yeah he was a bloody constable says to me that I am an IDLER..Fuck me, did I seriously look like an idler, was i littering there and posing as a harm to the law of the land. There are so many mulaloos moving around the area near my house sitting and boozing, smoking ganja and stuff. Our MF constable couldnt find any of them and we, as a decent citizen of Uganda, law abiding, hefty tax payers, working lawfully in all spectrums of life here in UG are caught and termed as idlers.

I just cant term how much I felt bad. If I had done a faulty thing, I would had been fair enough to jst move along with law, pay whatever fine I would had been demanded from. M saying this because I have had experiences with UG law previously also. I was caught once by KCC for briefly driving on the pavement (again under extraordinary circumstances, I was driving, but yeah I agree I was wrong in doing so) and I was thoroughly harrassed by them as well, but then I paid the full amount of fine they asked for, as I had committed a mistake and I wanted to regret it. But here it was not the case.

Ok, so I have been termed an anti-social, now they cant arrest me or anything, so this guy asks me to walk along with them for patrolling the area. As if its written on my face that I am an IDIOT, I denied to do that saying I need to work tomorrow and need to sleep. To this, the assistant MF constable answers that it is my duty also as a Ugandan to patrol the street, WTF, then why are you MF paid for (watever paltry thing he earns, I say that because no one will go around asking an expat for money unless you are like being paid peanuts, which self-respecting person would ask for money at at this unholy hour unless you a WHORE prying the streets of Kampala.).

The hilarity of this grim incident went even further, when I tried to call our guardian out here, so that he as a Mzee could put some brains into this guys ( i want to give numerous great sounding adjectives to this constables, but my conservative upbringing is stopping me from doing it). So at the time of making the phone call, he asks me if I am calling for the REBELS, so fight him or that if I was calling Gen Kayihura to fire him. At that moment I seriously hoped that I had General's no. so that i could jst call him and he could bash up this guys up..and screw this guys up!! And regarding the rebels, well this guys dont know what rebels are, come to India, (if they can afford it or may be if they want at my expense for an educational trip), I would surely be pleasured to show how rebels fight, they are terribly brutal. Jst two days back I read about an incidence, where in the inskirts of a rebel infected area, a local cop was beaten and killed (mutaliated wud be a more appropriate term), that even his family members said that the body dint look even like a human body.

The point being that ONE SHOULD ACTUALLY THINK A LOT BEFORE SPEAKING SOMETHING AS YOUR ACTIONS CAN BE WITHDRAWN BUT A WORD OUT OF YOU MOUTH IS LIKE AN ARROW OUT OF A BOW, IT CANT BE TAKEN BACK!!.....

Readers, I know I have been too much in writing all this stuff, but let me ask you one thing, arent there enough criminals out there in the streets of Kampala for this guys to patrol upon rather than come onto us useless mortals who are jst outside our houses doing nothing more than taking a walk.

Anyways, I know that every cop or security guy is not like the above mentioned ones, and I do respect them with my whole heart, as they take much pains in guarding us, our localities, our country and they lose sleep so that we can sleep peacefully (well yeah more often than NOT)....

but then there are few like the above, who just dont seem to get on mind what is reasonable.

Guys, just put me out if I am wrong somewhere and please forgive me if I wrote something unholy or unreasonable, but then its the heart speaking out as I dont expect or deserve such a treatment from a public servant, whom we as citizens of the country pay and who are more or less the SERVANTS OF THE PUBLIC, and I take the liberty of deeming myself as a citizen of this country where I have spent some very valuable years of my life.

Hoping to cheer up the weekend with some ON THE ROCKS WHISKEY (yeah i broke my resolution of not boozing and kickstarted it, but then I lasted the most in my group in maintaining the resolution!!).

happy weekend

Whatever, True to my style, I try to shout loudest

All the ways of life have turned upside down. Yeah its actually upside down.

I m out of ideas, m out of cash,m out of whiskey/beer or anything that is alcoholic, m out of friends, m out of orkut, m out of facebook, m out of almost everything that is anything in life.

Well everything is upside down right now. M actually late in writing this stuff.

The thing is like this, I actually screwed up my life the last two months. It actually started more than 2 months back.

Well its a thing of past, I actually had a great new year eve and xmas eve, I should had stopped it then and there itself. I fucking did it again, why why the fuck did I need to do it?

Anyways hopefully I should be able to claw back again with life and like.

Well for starters all the screw ups that I have been in, the golden lining is that, it has given me a straight line for atleast 12 months of my life here. Yeah guys 12 months, for the first time in my fucking whole life, I have planned something like this. Believe me never ever I have done that.

Lets see how far all this will go through.

Neways guys, tell me, is BHH on this thrusday!! Please people, you killed the Grand BHH (in true Indian style MAHA BHH), when is that now...please!!

Travelling to India guys...m excited!!

ok guys..

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!!)

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:
