To Good Times!

Almost an year since I said goodbye to office and joined the B-School.
Where am I today?
Back in office. :-|
Life, I tell you, is weird. Always a full circle. And you, like those three blind mice from the nursery rhyme, would be running around it. No hard feelings, though! In case you are wondering about the origins of these sudden philosophical musings, my summer internship started last week and when I sat in the new office, with my laptop and opened Google Reader again, a strong tsunami wave of nostalgia hit me. I suddenly remembered all the blogging I did when I worked, the number of articles I read, the new blogs I had discovered. Office is fun in some ways, I guess! :D

But, college? Its fun in many more ways than I can jot down here! Goes without saying, it makes you lazy. Its taking me hours to write this post and it is pretty much non-sense. That's what an MBA does to you. Anyway, I really don't have much to share. Just didn't want the blog to look deserted, hence this post. :)

I am pretty sure I'll start blogging actively again when I get working seriously. Office AC, chai breaks, free lunch - I need my drivers to get my creative juices flowing. Hang in there for a couple of weeks! :D

Oh and also, I fly to Hong Kong tomorrow for a week! Yay! That should definitely warrant a post. Till then though, like the title says, to good times! *Clink*


That's me, with my friends!

Signing out!
Cheers!

Letters to the Upparwalla!

(Wow! BlogAdda made my day! :) ) Prologue: I have been SO so SO so lazy, busy and blank, that I stopped writing posts altogether. But then, on reflection, I thought I owed this one to the unseen forces above. Hence, this post! LETTER #1 To The Gods Above, 1, "All Roads Lead to Heaven" Road, Heaven - 000000 15.06.2010 From Un Faithful Earthling Somewhere on Earth - Does the pin code matter?

The Truant Family!

The low hanging trees were always in demand. As Raji rushed for the nearest one, with her little brother in her tow, she cast a quick glance at the tree to survey the bounty. It was laden with fresh guavas, alright! Pumped, she put her foot on the lowest branch and pulled herself up. Raji had barely put her foot on the next branch, when she felt a tug on her skirt. Feeling a nudge of irritation, she peered down at her four year old brother. "What is it, Appu?" "Where's my guava?" he demanded. "Will you at least wait while I climb up?" She resumed her climb up carefully, so as not to tear her skirt. The trick was to choose the right branches.She had barely moved up one level, when she felt a tug again. She looked around for the nearest ripe guava and hurled it before Appu could speak.She heard his chuckles of delight as he dug into large juicy bites. That settled, she ensconced in a comfortable branch, and began her feast of the large, ripe guavas. S...

The Top 5 List!

Nothing. Nothing at all prepares you for office-life post college. No amount of counseling, talking to Seniors, reading self help book, listening to lectures from parents and elder siblings, Googling about "Life At Company X". Nothing I am not saying work is boring. Far from it. All I am implying is that, office is not like college and everyone realizes that the hard way, at some point in time. For some, it's Day One. For some, it's post the training period. For some, it's the first appraisal. For some, it's the day you resign.  But thankfully, there are a million things that make office, umm, let's say, bearable. So, presenting to you, my list of: TOP FIVE THINGS THAT MAKE OFFICE FUN! AT NUMBER 5 : Chai Breaks! Nope. I do not drink Chai, or Coffee, or Alcohol, or even aerated drinks. But when the others go out for Chai, I tag along diligently. I stand there in the sun and squint my eyes in the heat to watch my colleagues sip on deadly hot, hot chai ma...
