Will She? Won't She?

Hmmmm....
The one question!

• An enthu project team deciding to have a cricket match on Saturday, just before India's first match at the Cup, only to manage 2 measly innings and spending rest of the evening guzzling beer
• An over-enthu member of the same team breaking off his bat when India lost...
• Abuses hurled and tables banged in a meeting to decide which team would be responsible for a critical bug
• A mock fire drill in which half the people were convinced there was actually fire in the building; more than half of those more worried about not having taken a backup or checked in their code, than their lives

Who says office is boring??

New bands, weird bands, awesome-sounding bands....it seems I'm being bombarded with newer-than-ever alternative music these days. Even more so, with my access to BOB renewed (the alt rock channel on worldspace for the uninitiated - read:Marvin :D). Anyways, all this gr8 music about, well about nothing and everything in general, sure helps me keep my mind away from all the crap happening in the world around us. Songs with sentence-long titles, songs about a few of my least favourite things...songs about something absolutely mindless like chasing cars(???)...the past 2 months or so have truly shown me the power of good music to keep a level head in a disheveled state of affairs. Songs like Trouble make so much sense at times. And so do the ones, like The only difference between martyrdom and suicide is press coverage!!

Nai Nai Sarak.

Finally and finally I got a chance to explore Old Delhi (finally!!)

Old Delhi has always remained nothing more than a small dab on Delhi's map to me. A place you wouldn't really prefer going towards, unless -

- you have to catch a train from Old Delhi Railway Station
- you need to get some "hardware" stuff (damn you pervert guys)
- you need books at discounted rate from Nai Sarak
- (and as pointed out to me lately) you need to do some serious wedding shopping :(

well apart from the 'books' reason, I couldn't imagine any other thing for me to go there. But then, we South (of) Delhi people had our own Ber Sarai. So all in all, Old Delhi has been a complete no-no for me.

And then, the time came and I really had to move my ass to Old Delhi.

But hell! it turned out to be a fun trip.
Loads and loads of walking (and while you are carrying 10kgs of books with you)
People guiding you who themselves had no clue about the place :P
Actually finding out that Nai Sarak has more Sari shops than bookshops.
Awesome parawthe (or is it paraanthe!) - deep fried and served with a whole lot of stuff and an overdose of ghee.
An overkill of Faluda kulfi at Giani's

-Hic- I'm on a guilt trip

p.s. I'm on a roll or what! Everyone else looks dead on this blog :D

Yawn!

Days fly by.
And I still watch them fly past the sky.

Have a interview tomorrow (don't know where it came from :D)
Do not know what the results would be, but in all the experience has been good.

A lot of time went into self-contemplation.
Trying to understand what life is all about (I think I had lost track since I started working). And I guess same has been the case with others (zz9!)

So as Green Day said (sang to be precise)

So make the best of this test and don't ask why,
It's not a question but a lesson learned in time.
It's something unpredictable, but in the end it's right.
I hope you had the time of your life.....
