All dead ?...not yet

All the blogs I read freequently are dead. I know all have busy professional lives or are preparing towards that end. Just as I read somewhere when someone asks an MBA hows life buddy ?. Pat comes the reply - life ...after MBA ?? are you kidding me. I would agree with that but guess there is no one to be blamed. I like the work but it is a bit too much. One of my freind puts it in a different way. He says you atleast have the weekend to look forward to. Cant disagree with that too. Weekends feels like heaven but usually they are very short and disappear in restocking the house and preparation of the next week. I am still wearing those torn shoes which I forgot to replace last weekend. I am still juggling those 3-4 remaining ironed shirts through the week.
On tuesday it felt like thursdays and on thursday I have to pour out all this to last the friday and then it is the much awaited weekend. Yippe!...uh .. oh...No have to get through the friday first.

BTW there was this first hindi movie Jaaneman released in "a" theatre in Japan but was so far out of here that gave it a miss. I hope somebody watched it so that there will be more later.

My own !!

The city of jaipur from the days of abandoned matches due to bad pitches has grown up to be a day and night ODI cricket matches. Not one, two but what 3 matches(i think). Even an India match. The political clout of Jaipur has shown up. Anyway, great that it is becoming a happening place. All the more reason for me to get back to my city!!. I did not know that i will miss it so much against the other places i have spent time in. Bangalore with its ultra modern laid back style and the fast paced Mumbai. Jaipur has that feel of home man.

One realise the importance of ones own things when one does not have even a single one of them. Nor the freinds neither the family, nor a city one can call his own. When with freinds one does not miss the belongingness of the family and of course at home you take it for granted. I realised all this when I am away from all of them far away. Too late. I have sort of learnt to live for the next high of meeting old freinds or the next going back home date. Work has its high and i am here for that but ahhhhhh !! these dont even match the highs of alcohol :P.
