Another really tough week.

Its saturday afternoon but its not over. lots of documentation to do, replies to send and of course study for the usual daily work related queries.

I have been falling short on the studies front, was just able to finish my part of the CRM ppt. I presented well tho but didnt have the fun I normally have when I am in front of the class. Maybe I am getting too stressed out and I need to de-stress some how. I need a balance to take out the worries and come back to work with greater zeal.

I have become a mobile call center agent who is a single window resolution for all qqueries at any time of the day or night. Everyone's work is top priority and needs to be closed on a yesterday basis. If it was really so much simpler than that.

The pressure is beginning to grow, the expectations are growing, the time lines are shortening.. Good in way and not good from a rest and health perspective. I have skipped meals, had really late dinners or chit pit in the middle of the night and havent been sleeping much. I come back so tired and exhausted after class late at night and al i see is empty vessels in the kitchen and nothing to eat. Surely, life's can be a little better than that.

Altho, we have been having really heavy meals in the office, we have to reduce the amount of oil which we are consuming. I have cut down drastically on the tea and coffee I was having which was causing more trouble. Now its lots of water and sharbat :) Again I have started having lots of choco biscuits, need to cut down on it.

I got my cupboard cum writing table this week after a battle with the carpenter for over 2 weeks. It makes so much sense. One of reasons to have it is to play games on the PC but then I havent yet had a chance in the last 1 week. I just have to start playing and the rest of the passion will return.

Working on Sudoku in spare time is back after a long long time. I am taking a lot more time than what I used to do earlier but the speed should improve soon.



I have a 6 assignment journal to write in the next 3-4 hours and also have to complete a lot of work. Hope I am able to manage all that.

I have had some fights and confrontations with people this week, something which hasnt yet happened earlier but I guess thats what happens when I get pushed to the limit. I have to attend a surd wedding this sunday, hope I get to be there. will be missing class but thats the least of my troubles.

Surd weddings :) 4 of my brothers have got married in the gurdwara but I havent yet attended a single one of them. Lets see how its like :)

I have got interesting comments about the haircut. a lot of people have been surprised at the new cut as they havent seen me in such short hair before. My face looks a whole lot bigger and maybe I look meaner in this. Its been 2 weeks now and my hair has started growing vertically so I look like a porcupine . Maybe I should dye my hair in orange and purple to get the punk look. Not a bad idea if you are in college but when you have face clients, i wonder how people would react to me. A tatoo and a piercing with that ? too good ho jayega.. its the lack of sleep which is making my imagination fly. Its been a while since i started imagining things.


getting back to work now.

15 days gone this month and the last 2 weeks have been very tough and tense.
A lot of pressure at work and growing so. College is getting tough too as the teachers have become strict as compared to the earlier terms.

Today has been absolutely chaotic. Loads of confusion and every thing going in different directions. I ha 2 meetings which got cancelled. A trip to Mumbai on the cards which got cancelled, the class which went on and on and I was soo tired and sleepy. In fact, I was in a daze the whole day and could be in the same state tomorrow as well since I am up watching the matches. My eyes have been aching since morning and I have been sleep eating/walking/talking/working/emailing the whole day

" When are you getting married ? "

this has become the favourite question of virtually every one I know and of loads of people i dont know or dont want to know !

Lets see how long can I survive this period of bachelorhood and enjoy my freedom and peace. hehe.. who, how, when and why.. let my friends and family who are going over board in finding a match for me , actually find someone.

its hilarous at times when i get to hear " you have no right to remain carefree and relaxed " " how can you remain like this, you have to get married " The married guys in the friends circle lament abt their status and keep asking me when do i get to join their sad state of life.

The girls have a very opposite view point. for them the best thing in life is to get married. Some to carry bags, drive around, pay for everything and listen to everything. interesting arguments.

more on this later.. the argument continues :)

I cooked something for the first time..

it was an awesome experience and I already want to become a professional chef. I didnt know the joy of cooking something until I made it and tasted it. I had the entire thing to myself and had every single bit of it.

Chicken curry, the easiest and simplest of things to cook. So what it is simple and I got all the instructions from mom over the phone. I enjoyed it and am looking forward to cooking loads more. I need to get over this laziness in stocking food items for cooking to try out something new but I am definitely going to work on this in the coming months.

I cant tell how much I missed D when I was doing the preparation and while having it. i so much wanted to tell her but then now I dont care any more. She is some one's wife and cooks for someone else. I dont want to discuss cooking with her. Though we both had a deep desire to cook together when ever we got a chance, I dont think this is ever going to materialize. Like I wrote earlier, I owe this opportunity to someone else.

the search begins..
