life is beautiful...

nothing special or interesting to write about... my meddling with word lists is still going on... enjoying the comfortable stay at home... but, sleeplessness is increasing day by day... whenever i sleep, words are flooding into mind... in spite of the doubtful success in the exam, preparation is giving me a flavor of english vocabulary...

as uaual, i couldn't sleep last night... after hours of futile attempts to sleep, rolling this side and that side, woke up at 4 in the morning... prepared a tea, elachi added in it, and enjoyed it along with the cool breeze coming from the window as it was raining all the night... i had an advantage of my sleepless night... could fondly recollect some of the sweet memories with my parted friends... could listen to the wonderful devotional songs by my neighboring family... i wish i get such a melodious classical singer as my wife!!!

drizzling is stopped by 6AM... could catch some beautiful scenes out in the garden... i found some of the rain drops still hanging on the flower petals and shining in the growing lighting of the dawn... last night's jasmine flowers are still fresh due to the night long drizzle... i wish i had a digital camera!!! it needs a little bit of interest and patience to find beauty in the same old ordinary surroundings, i guess!!! believe me, the glimpses of those drenched flowers really charged my day... so, friends... whenever you don't get sleep, just dont try to sleep... come out of the room... try out different things available... poetry, scenery, songs... whatever you can!!!

life is beautiful... if we have the eyes to look at it so!!!

happy diwali

the festival of lights and victory was very good this year... after around five years, i celebrated this festival at home with my parents and nephew... it is somewhat good to see that people are preferring crackers which give colors and sparkles rather than those that give sounds... may the joy and brightness brought by this festival persist throughout the year and forever!!! happy diwali to one and all...

so far so good...

GRE preparation is going good... i am meddling with wordlists in my own way... no matter how many times word lists are revised some words always confuse me... like fictititious, fictious, factious, factitious, filch, flilch, etc... still, GRE preparation has its own charm and beauty in it... trying to bring back the good old habbit of mugging, mugging and mugging...

having fun with my nephew... it is always fun to play with him who makes all sorts of sounds to convey others what he wanted... his smile is soooooo cute... even i learnt how to manage him... pretty good lesson for me it seems... so far everything is going good... will be back soon with some good stuff than just boring routine things of life!!!

hurray... i got leave!!!

hurray... i got leave for almost a full month... no work till 8th november...
hulalla lalalla laallaalley...

waiting for 'someone'

dussarah has gone with a long weekend... month has changed... same with the weather... slow swift from clear sky to cloudy... it's awsome to look at this october sky which is partly cloudy and partly bright... the half moon visible in the evening is soooo charming... and so are my thoughts!!! from a state of turbulence, slowly getting into clear zone... the constantly nagging questions like 'what do i want in life?', 'what do i really like to do?', 'what is my destiny?' are still not completely answered... but still, slowly getting accustomed to the fact that life has its charm and beauty in making you ponder about 'what next?'... trying to find joy in every small thing... listening to kenny G's 'joy of life', sankar mahadevan's breathless, suprabhatham by MS, reading at least one short story everyday, sunset, afternoon drizzle, and the bright moon in the sky etc... these things are keeping me healthy and happier... in other words, moon light days have arrived!!!

one more interesting thing... now, i am believing the saying 'someone somewhere is made for you', as is said in 'dil to pagal hai'... but, how can we come to know that 'someone'??? hopefully, we should not bother about this question, i feel... when time comes, something deep in your heart, the bell rings!!! i am waiting for that someone!!!

well, here is a question for you folks... in fact, a doubt which myself wanted to know since long!!! what's the best way to identify your soulmate? is there anything really solid importance this word 'soulmate'? if you could identify that person, what is the best way to approach and make things work out?

ideality versus reality...

many times, i use to prepare a strict and disciplined timetable for the day and always (mind you... it is not sometimes... always) fail to execute it at least half through it... here is how it goes ... just for fun!!!

11:00 - 12:30		back to work and discuss with boss		continue to orkut, blogging etc.. (boss was in some meeting!!)
12:30 - 01:30		lunch break		unwillingly leaves orkut etc. and head towards mess!!
1:30 - 3:30		another work session..		back from lunch at 2:30.. (And straight to tea board)
3:30 - 4:30		discussion with boss…		finally think for a while about pending work.. (a deep sigh!!)
4:30 - 5:00		snacks		still repenting for not working!! (just repenting, not doing work ;-)

9:00 - 10:30		another work session..		still not decided… (but wanted to something different..)
10:30 - 11:00		tea at tea board.. It's awsome..		no need to say… already at tea board.. (discussing about some movie)
11:00 - 12:00		finalisation of the day's work.. And back to room		browsing for online movies and finally caught a poor one to go with!!
