Those Little Drops of Rain

Rains have officially entered the Indian subcontinent and have brought along with it the much needed respite from hot summers and cheers to many faces . Rains are often welcomed by people from all walks of life for reasons a plenty.

• 

  For school going children it officially marks the beginning of a new session and kids are all decked up to welcome rains in their own little ways with cute little umbrellas and colourful raincoats . Moreover , children have their reasons to feel happy and celebrate rains as they get to meet their friends after a huge two months long gap , catch up with all that long lost conversations and thus they do make it a point to go to school no matter how heavily it might be raining. 

• 

  For love birds , its a season to celebrate love , their commitment , their togetherness and the bond that they have shared over the time . This is one such season where people in love come out in the open enjoy those never ending long drives , share those sweet nothings . For the ones who have been together for a long time , rains become a reason for them to rejuvenate their love add that zing to their relationship and fall in love all over again and for the ones who have newly found love , it is that time of the year to enjoy themselves and cherish there love . No doubt some of the most romantic moments are felt and enjoyed in the midst of rains .

• For friends , it is the time to go out for those numerous outings to all the far fetched places enjoying all the while with either that steaming hot cuppa of “chai” and catching up or else with that hot, spicy and tangy “bhutta” . Friends welcome and enjoy rains to the core . for the ones who are still together in the same city make it a point to go on outings and splurge themselves in the absurdest of activities without giving two hoots as to what the outer world thinks of them as and for the ones for have been separated due to work, education or whatsoever be the reason rains are the season of remembrance for them as they go down the memory lane thinking of all the wonderful moments they have spent together .

• For farmers , rains indeed are a blessing in disguise as rains give them an opportunity to get rid of all there debts as there crops sell well and bring about the much needed prosperity in their lives coz otherwise they end up suffering from some unbearable losses which forces them to take the disastrous step of ending their lives and leaving behind there loved ones.  So the next time you crib over the roin destroying your picnic plans,think of them.

And for the rest all rains are the time to sit back and enjoy with there cup of hot chocolate/coffee/tea whichever pleases their taste buds and their loved ones next to them or a good book not to forget some sumptuous snacks . THE OPTIONS ARE ENDLESS AND SO IS THE MAGIC OF RAIN . ENJOY!!

Cheers..!

And the the radio goes on as:-

 “AA CHAL KE TUJHE..MAIN LEKE CHALUN ..EK AESE "GAGAN" KE TALE..JAHAN GAM BHI NA HO..AANSUN BHI NA HO..BAS PYAR HI PYAR PALE ..EK AESE GAGAN KE TALE..”..

For all my work-aholics out there..

A group of alumni, highly established in their careers, got together to visit their old university professor. Conversation soon turned into complaints about stress in work and life.

Offering his guests coffee, the professor went to the kitchen and returned with a large pot of coffee and an assortment of cups -porcelain, plastic, glass, crystal, some plain looking, some expensive, some exquisite - telling them to help themselves to hot coffee.

When all the students had a cup of coffee in hand, the professor said: "If you noticed, all the nice looking expensive cups were taken up, leaving behind the plain and cheap ones. While it is but normal for you to want only the best for yourselves, that is the source of your problems and stress.

What all of you really wanted was coffee, not the cup, but you consciously went for the best cups and were eyeing each other's cups.

Now if life is coffee, then the jobs, money and position in society are the cups. They are just tools to hold and contain Life, but the quality of Life doesn't change. Some times, by concentrating only on the cup, we fail to enjoy the coffee in it."

Don't let the cups drive you... Enjoy the coffee instead !!

Last Few days at Work..!!

Its been 10 Months here and to be honest I was looking forward to this day since day 1..!!

How do I feel ??

Well...... For starters I will be among the unemployed youth of India for the next two years :( So the thought is actually a little scary.But then I have heard *Great* things about NITIE Mumbai .So looking forward to that as well

What was it like at Infosys ??
Joining a company of such magnanimity was(and also wud remain) a great feeling.I owe very much to this company.They provided me with a great headstart in my career and even used to pay me :D.Although the much talked about training wasn't a walk in the park but I treated it as an extension to College days.However the less i talk about it the better it is *BigGrin*.But more or less it has been a 10 month sojourn at Mysore which is currently my favourite city.

What I stand to lose ??
Hmm..gud question actually!! Other than the salary,I will miss my friends a lot.They were there during the worst of my times and also the best of my times.@All-Thank you guys.

Other than all that,one thing I will miss the most is the ambience of Mysore. One of the best climates in India; the many gardens and green spaces that surround it (it is called the Garden City, a refreshing change from "God's Own Country"); the production of silk and sandalwood (did you know they boil worms to get silk? I didn't!!).People were very helpful and lovely in every sense of the word.

Ultimately, it's inexplicable. Not to be over-dramatic, but the experience, the time,it's in my system

Thank you again Infosys!

Hello Friends,

 After a lot of thinking and a lot of  nagging-me by myself, here I am writing my first blog mostly to try my hand in blogging (and also to pass time).I am here to speak my mind out on anything relevant(mostly irrelevant)that can be possible under the sun . I dont really want to hurt anybody's sentiments  but in case u feel so den feel free to comment against it(Actually what i wanted to say here is -"I DONT GIVE A DAMN,ITS MY BLOG AFTERALL",but also I dont want to lose handful of my friends who will read my blog so please ignore the letters in bold)

  Also I wanted to see if I am worth being read or not.The only way for me to fathom your response my dear friends is your feedback.Praise or rebuke will all be taken in my stride(and even swear words ),rest assured.But either way i will continue to write :)

PS:-Please forgive my use of chat-lingo in the articles to come.I am trying to avoid them.Trust me,it is difficult.
PPS:-Also pardon my improper english usage if anywhere found .It is all I could manage
