The year that was - 2011.

Ok it's that time of the year when nondescript political commentators, film-critics, sports columnists - at times all rolled into one like indian news channels who have the same panel of 'experts' discussing defence deals and cricketing debacles - have a party writing about their top 10, bottom 10 and middleton. The end result is some megabytes of cyber waste.

Me being the not-so considerate cyber user has decided to contribute to that ... here goes my list of top i-dunno-wat

a) A wonderful 3 months trip to Copenhagen....had some lovely as well as not-so lovely time

Lovely bcoz of the following reasons
  • Blond girls
  • Blond girls in clear heels
  • Blond girls playing volleyball in the beach
   Err...that's the top 3 reasons..incredible isn't it. The other ones
  • A place where indian english and accent is not the funniest
  • Ppl stopping and watching us with confused looks...when we are playing cricket that is.
  • Was back to my bachelor days..and realized my booze resistance is not the same as it was 5years ago..ah age is catching up
  • Ofcoz was paid in a currency which was more than INR
  • Blond ...ok I stop it here.
No-so lovely bcoz
  • Missed the chaos
  • Had a visit to germany- which made me feel why didn't the americans nuke germany...argh..hated the place and no i aint buying a BMW or Audi or Merc ever ever in my life... well not that there were too many affordable..either way.
  • And yeah..i was single..come on there was no one to blame when things go wrong.

b) Moved into my new apartment. There is a saying in tamil "Get a wedding done and get a house built".. means both are financially exhaustive. One can never estimate the costs and none ever knows all the nuances.

If building the house part is smoother,trust me the moving in and settling down will make sure it sucks out  everything left. Guess I can write a whole series of blogs on this.

c) Managed to stage 2 shows with my theatre group. Was a miracle indeed,what with 80% of the team members being offshored.

d) Hearing quite a few voices speaking inside me..and asking me to write a book. I hope it would be a bigger best seller than some of the holy scriptures going around.

e) There was some point in the year where I was completely lost with gadgets, bikes n cars..was using lot of smileys in mails and worst started loving justin beiber's music(i know that's a oxymoron)..phew..it was like some teenage girl's spirit taking over me. Thanks to non-stop rambo movies, absolut, JD and their ilk, the spirits are gone now tho.

New-year wishes..
- Wish SRK stops acting...Anna stops fasting...and obama starts working
- To enter politics
- Stop drinking
- Reduce social networking
- Write more on this blog :-).

Last but not the least..I wish the calendar app used by mayans had crashed,hence there was no 2013 for them ;-).. the world is still so beautiful...

Ello Blog...

Yeah it has been eons since I dropped in here to visit you, leave alone as the blog's owner but even as a visitor :). Sorry for being so mean and cruel, there are hundreds of valid reasons for not being able to visit. Be it the total net blockage at work[we have requested for blogspot unblocking saying there are loads of tech blogs to read thru :P..hope they show mercy],no computer at the new house and then the internet connection. But I know you wont accept these reasons and will keep harping on my changed marital status as the sole reason...thats how the world works. I mean every status message of mine in twitter or FB is somehow related to my married life and my better half..phew I am thinking what status to put up nowadays. Thinking - A concept which I was not used to previously, I am doing a lot of it now.No doubt married men get bald...sigh.

The year 2009 was pretty good for me. The first 2months were hectic at work, post that it has been bench party :-D... I got a new car, new bike and yeah a wife :P...evil, materialistc me. The Rebelz front was not upto my expectation but then not too bad,so can let it pass by.

I have loads of wishes for 2010, listing a few out here and hope Lord harry reads them and helps me to achieve a few
-- Complete all my half written scripts
-- Attempt writing my own book. C-Log aka canine log :-D
-- Try not to get bankrupt by 10th of every month
-- Start gymming

There are a few more not-so-good wishes like sealing the mouth of my project admin who enquires abt my wife's well being...noble intentions, but she screams it from 3 bays away so that all the girls in the work area know i am not single. Assasinate the head of ISS, the caterer who serves lunch at work..the food makes me delusional, I mean...I end up thinking my wife is the best cook!! this is more dangerous than food poisoning you see.

Some wishes for the welfare of general humanity... wish tiger woods gets back to playing[playing golf i meant], amir khan stops behaving like an idiot in real life[yeah they usurp the story from chetan's book n threaten to sue him..its more of stupidity I say], My name is khan will have only a stammerin SRK[got bored seeing the hamming version of him], Pawar & Modi take up the job of bowling & fielding coach [You say Pawar faster than Venkatesh Prasad?hmm..], RGV delivers a movie which will run till I park my bike in satyam cinemas and rush to the ticket counter, the home minister stops drinking too much [I can give clearer statements on telengana with 5 shots of teqila]...and last but not the least I keep blogging...buhahhaaa...Happy new year all. Have a rocking 2010 !!
