Goodbye 2003

Just over 4 hours to go before 2004 is here. Just thought I'd put in one final entry for this year before moving on to next year, which should hopefully be a better, brighter and more pleasureable year not just for myself but for everybody in this world

Sad thing is ...this year my parents have plans and I and my brother don't!!! Hell...it's official..we suck!

ON that happy note..Goodbye 2003...Bring on 2004 BABY!!!!!!

Hello Webcam!



Yes, we finally got off our asses and got ourselves a webcam! What you see above is me trying to look cool, gazing at the morning sun, in my 4 year old multi-holed t-shirt at my palatial bungalow in Mumbai. Hmm..I lied in one part of that last sentence, Which one could that be??? :-)

The shit we had to go through to install this baby doesn't even start to get funny, it was a nightmare, now we have a new operating system, a much faster net connection, a new headset and ofcourse the webcam, my new toy! Heck, what am I complaining about!

Well, Thank God Christmas is over and done with, didn't enjoy that bit one bit! Now the whole new year thing to look forward to. Blah. Thats gonna be a damp squib too. It hasn't been the most exciting of years but I'll have a whole post dedicated to that as the year end gets nearer.

Well, just over 2 weeks for my brother to get his bum to the U.K. He was a nervous wreck until a week ago, I think he'll get better as the date gets closer. I wish I was going on the trip with him, atleast for a couple of weeks but that wasn't to happen so I'll have to settle for a later date, well maybe.

I'm pretty sure nobody's reading this cos I've been such a fricking irregular blogger, buggered if. I didn't do this for a large audience in the first place, but don't get me wrong, I apprecaite the few people who do vsiit regularly. Yes, the 2 of them, you know who you are :-)

It's a miracle!

Yes, I woke up early this morning too like the rest of god only knows how many million other Indians, to watch the India Vs Australia test match. Hey, we only one every now and then and we got the big fish this time. Ofcourse I'm happy and everything, but now I'm looking forward to the next test match in Melbourne more than before. Ofcourse, my predictions of a 3-0 drubbing have gone wrong with this win, just goes to show I'm not psychic!

Saddam Saddam Everywhere

What the F*** is wrong with people these days. I hate it that the media is trying to feed us this bull crap about how good a thing capturing Saddam is, everyone should really know that Saddam never did threaten the U.S or any other country in the world, well, maybe Iran, they're the one's who should be celebrating, not the Americans!

Here's why I think capturing Saddam is not reason for celebration A) Capturing him doesn't make anyone or any place safer B) He was found in a freaking hole in what looks to me like pretty bad health, the world should pity this man not celebrate his capture C) If there was reason to capture him, the IRAQIS should've captured him, not foreign invaders, Okay Saddam is this evil bastard who's killed his own people, but then so is Robert Mugabe and Narendra Modi, somehow I don't see US forces marching into Ahmedabad and getting Modi out of a whole, cos Gujarat don't have near as much as oil as does Iraq!

Annoying People!

I was at the post office the other day and there's this stupid couple behind me who have the worst manners in the world, firstly they're looking over my shoulder trying to sneak a peek at what I'm mailing and to whom, secondly they try to stand next to me and get ahead of me in the line. Hell, even monkeys behave better than this! And yeah, this new breed of "Call center crowd" people are very annoying too, bloody undergrads with circles underneath their eyes, yapping loudly and disrespectfully. Really, the young people of today worry me. No, seriously, they do worry me.

The Quarter life crisis

I'm wondering how many people out there are actually experiencing the "Quarter life crisis" out there?

It is when you stop going along with the crowd and start realizing that there are a lot of things about yourself that you didn't know and may not like. You start feeling insecure and wonder where you will be in a year or two, but then get scared because you barely know where you are now. You start realizing that people are selfish and that, maybe, those friends that you thought you were so close to aren't exactly the
greatest people you have ever met and the people you have lost touch with are some of the most important ones. What you do not realize is that they are realizing that too and are not really cold or catty or mean or insincere, but that they
are as confused as you are.

You look at your job. It is not even close to what you thought you would be doing or maybe you are looking for one and realizing that you are going to have to start at the bottom and are scared.

You miss the comforts of college, of groups, of socializing with the same people on a constant basis. But then you realize that maybe they weren't so great after all. You are beginning to understand yourself and what you want and do not
want. Your opinions have gotten stronger.

You see what others are doing and find yourself judging a bit more than usual because suddenly you realize that you have certain boundaries in your life and add things to your list of what is acceptable and what is not.

You are insecure and then secure. You laugh and cry with the greatest force of your life. You feel alone and scared and confused. Suddenly change is the enemy and you try and cling on to the past with dear life but soon realize that the past is drifting further and further away and there is nothing to do but stay where you are or
move forward.

You get your heart broken and wonder how someone you loved could do such damage to you or you lie down in bed and wonder why you can't meet anyone
decent enough to get to know better.

You love someone but maybe love someone else too and cannot figure out why you are doing this because you are not a bad person. One night stands and random hook ups start to look cheap and getting wasted and acting like an idiot starts to look pathetic.

You go through the same emotions and questions over and over and talk with your friends about the same topics because you cannot seem to make a decision. You worry about loans and money and the future and making a life for yourself and while
winning the race would be great, right now you'd just like to be a contender!

RAHUL BOSE IS A FUCKING IDIOT

They're having this movie "Everybody says I'm fine" on Star Movies right now. Now I've never been a big Rahul Bose fan or a very keen movie watcher either but I know a BAD movie when I see one and ESIF is just that...an awful piece of crap. Just to set the record straight, I did not sit through the entire movie, more like 20 mins in bit's and pieces throughout.

I read somewhere someone say that Rahul Bose is the best actor in the country? We are in such deep shit of that pathetic moron is a good actor!

I'm too depressed to put in anything else, that'll be it for today!
