damn. not again.

you hear 5 different things, possibly even on different days.
Then you hear that 6th sentence...and BAM!! all of it makes sense together. and it blows you away.

ever had that feeling?

unfortunately I've had it twice this week already.

learn to live

The fun part about living (yeah i mean - staying alive) is that everyday you learn to live.

As each day passes, while I keep wondering what the purpose of this life is and will be in the future, I come to terms with the fact that the curiousity and greed to know more will not die until I do.

After just 3 lines of blogging I do not what i'm talking about
:o)
I guess what I'm really trying to do here is making an age old statement in a new way. not able to do that. mixed thoughts.

on a different topic. as I try to understand what an mba aspirant/graduate *should do, i am also trying to figure whether I really am in that league. low confidence perhaps...or is it calibre? I want to find that out. Look like there is no easy way or a hard way...I need to create my own path.
Stuck.

Adjectives, not words coming out of my brain.
weird post.

later.

donation people

trying to get it going

have kinda publically announced donationpeople.com now. have sent out mails, posted on communitie to use the site.
will prolly find out in a couple of weeks if there has been any positive activity at all.
Although, i did get support from many friends. they've forwarded the link to their friends as well.

go go go! spread like spam...err...not like spam...but just spread over. let people know and use the site for what it is made - help Indian children.

its okay to get senti over your own work.

you are supposed to grab opportunities with both hands.

So when Rick asked me if i wanted to accompany him as his associate to Boston in a conference where he'll be pitching NuRide, when NuRide was shortlisted in the top 22 of the 600 applicant companies, where multi-millionairre investors would discover the next TiVo within the 6minutes of pitching time per company....
I said yes with both hands.

what do i do???

so while all the KT is going on in my company...i asked a questions to one of my collegues in an email.
He did replly, but his reply was confusing enough. it was all theoretical.
So I asked again - i did not understand what you meant. can you give an example.
what do i get back? - the same line (as in nthe same words...the same words!!!) as the reply.
So i asked in a different way - did you mean A-..... or did you mean B-.....?
And this time the reply he gives is - he does tell me if its A or if its B. He replies 'C'.
i am still confused.

now what do i do?

i'll just ask another guy.

what a dream can do

Amazing stuff.
I have been doing this for a while and i realised only today that this is all so cool!

This is what i do -
I dream during the night (yeah, this is the 'what we all do' part).
After i wake up, there are memories of the latest dream i had...

and while brushing my teeth every morning, it seems, i've gotten into the habbit of analyzing my dreams - what i did wrong, what i could have done better, what i should actually do in real life!
Amazing ain't it?!!
So i try to learn from my dreams, i try to learn from something that never happened...or at the most is just a premonition!

dreams can get so real at times.
Only realised after i had the one i did this morning. there are just faint memories now. i just remember for a few minutes after i wake up...and then i get lost in the more material world.

When you look at yourself from a universal standpoint, something inside always reminds or informs you that there are bigger and better things to worry about.

last week

From Albany, NY

Had a chill weekend. 2nd in a row. Milu came to my place by train and then we drove to Albany to see off Sandy. oh well, Sandy left for India on the following Monday, so even he got a chance to see us off on Sunday :D
Waha pahuche Friday raat 12:30am...pata chala sone ka kuch bandobast nahi...aur phir main jab bhi jaldi main packing karta hun, kuch toh reh hi jaata hai. forgot to take a comforter with me. So we went to the nearest walmart at 2am!, i guess that was the only open store at that time to buy a new blanket for me.
we did masti at home and clubbing on Saturday. played pool for a while. Saw these great desi gals in the pub, but din't get a chance to talk as everyone else was feeling sleepy and just wanted to leave...well, yeah, that one excuse :p

Sal is back. Toh ab weekend movie dekhna shuru phirse?!

Will meet Ruchi over the weekend for Diwali and to see her off to DC as well!

Had interesting conversation with TushB in the past few days...
