The Good,The Bad..and The Ugly Surd..

I lost..lost points on selections to the big tourney..Now i am third on the list..
Only 2 get to go..all-expenses paid..to possibly play...the oman national team !

*:O,i know ! to fight it out against them will be sooo uber-cool !
I never get to play the national team in india ! :(*

Losing an important match...meant that..the Mesuca raquet felt the rage..
I bought a new one..a yonex..light...more tension in the mesh...and...expensive...

Rage...is Expensive...Q.E.D...











































*oohhh..aaaahhhh..ouuccch...still feel the pinch :D*

But...Now.. "I have the power !" heeeeee-maaaan !
:D
Phantom..mandrake..giant robot...green lantern..batman..superman...all rolled into one...
I will eventually rule !!
*This is a round-robin thingie..and entries are still open..even we dont know when the actual thing will happen..
but..feels so good to learn swear words in most languages of the world..on court !
and play...sometimes..:D*


PS: Ok..surd..no smart-ass comments..you can have robin..he's gay too..Batman told me..have fun ! with both !! :D

PPS: All...
Taxi no. 9211...awesome movie ! for all mumbaites,ex-mumbaites,wannabe-mumbaites,general junta - a must watch !!
Maa-kasam ! Dil khush ho gaya..Too much tha..kya movie banaayee hai !
*Blooper noticed..Andherichi local ? aur baad mein "Central" line on the side ? No way ! not possible !! Mishtake ho gayaa :D*
And...thats inspite of the very few brief flashes of...acting...John Abraham and Sameera reddy's attempts at acting !
Nanabhau and Sonali Kulkarni rule,tho..all through !!!

*Yaar ABhi..mujhe phir se pyaar ho gaya..sonali kulkarni se :D
We had seen her at Prithvi theatre,bombay..with Makarand Deshpande..they are apparently a pair..and had come to watch a play..
Flat ho gaya tha mein..when she walked past :O
siiggghhhhh..."ethereal"...graceful.. beauty haai yaar..
no make-up...no extra-fittings..just her..and so attractive...siiggghhhhh :D*


Bahut dinon ke baad..ek aisi hindi movie..
No wonder something inside me kept saying "Dont miss this one..Dont miss this one !! "
The box office wasnt on fire..but bygawd ! 'hatke' thee !!
Some of the dialogues..were outta this world !

Coversation b/w Nana and his son..Typical Mumbai chawl..
"Aye..kya kar raha hai ?
"Fielding"
"Bat kiska hai ?"
"Mera.."
"Toh fielding kyon kar raha hai ? batting karo !
Tendulkar banne ka...kaif nahi banne ka...samjha !? Samjha na !?!
Chal..abhi batting kar ! "
:))


And in the end...when priyanka chopra,makes a special appearance..
"Pyaaar...Pyaaar...Pyaaar...Chahiye thoda pyaar...thoda pyaar chahiye.."
Kishore Kumar revisited...bahut sahi !

Meter Down !! Meter Down !!
Down..down...down..X2..
:D

Mein aisa kyon hoon ?

In my efforts at trying to understand myself and why I am,the way I am...another minor milestone...

*It's an on-going effort..one important aspect of which...
is understanding other people..and how they think..and react..
Very useful..to know the difference b/w them..and you...
and why you are...you..and they are...them...
I call it the "KarNa Project"..know your hindu mythology to know it's significance...I know just enuf of it...*


My company's ID/Swipe-card report...a.k.a attendance sheet...

*We need to clock 45 hrs a week...minimum..while in office..that's 9 a day...weekends not included..
loo-break,lunch break,girlfriend-call break- not included..It's called manual labour,i know..but pays decently well...i am not starving..and is interesting..sometimes :D
but we..my division in office...manage to do it easy..we are in the software industry..and consequently..have sad lives and clock 11 hours normally..so..*


So..as i was saying..Attendance report...Mine for the 30th day of January 2006,A Monday..

*Dont ask..i still continue to get attendance reports on email for my last week at my chennai office ! before i came to the desert..
Codie saala, Ek 'If' Loop Daalna bhool gaya !*


Observe the number of 1 min/2 mins out-times...with the 5-1-2-9-6 gate-sequence..
denotes the loo-break and consequent water drink-break...and sometimes...chat-with-arbit-people break..
sequence may change at random..without notice..but will recur with a max time diff of 55 mins..60 mins max !

*Tells me..one hour is the most i can stand anything boring..even if i am being paid for it !
Hmm..wonder what my wife will do..55 mins into a marriage..and divorce ! hmm.. :D
No wonder,my relationships dont stand the test of time...on the contrary,my time...tests my relationships...:D*


Also tells me..i talk to arbit people on arbit topics..including whether that arbit deal came arbit through..not bcos i arbit care..or give a damn..an arbit damn !
but..bcos i would love to still clock my arbit in-time..while not really working arbit ! ha ! arbit cross, arbit arbit double-cross !!

*Arbit=Arbitrary/ily..Doesnt mean anything..just for added emphasis..something,somewhere,someone..so..arbit...
love that word...iitm lingos..i hope they never leave my vocab..except,the "aaa "..."yes aaa ?!","no aa ??!, " what the 'aaa' vaa ??! aiyyyyoo ! "aiyooo aa ??" :P*

:D

So..Moral of the story..
1. Had read somewhere before..drinking water regularly is essential..avoids dehydration..skin issues..
hunger..and therefore over-eating,when you do eat..now you know why i will never ever put on weight..that..and those cute li'l things called genes ! :D

2. Max time that a person shld sit at a PC screen continuously is...20 mins..the eyes need a break after that..read that somewhere too..
*i do read 'somewhere' a lot..hmm..where is 'somewhere' !? must be somewhere...anywhere ! :D*

so..yawn..stretch...angadaayee lo..make a smart-ass comment abt your colleague's (lack of ) dressing sense..
or the fact that....her purse looks very inviting...for a ransack,today ! do something !

*hehehhehe...that shld wake her up ! evil devil grin !! poor smita..bahut pain deta hoon usse..
ghar jaake hubby 'maskals' dear se complain karti hogi ! mereko darr nahin hai !! mereko uske maskals se darr hai, us se nahi !!! :D*


Why the 20 mins ? lachrymal glands,etc fundas..boring to explain..i know it..thats enuf..for me..wiki it if interested !

3. Max diff. b/w meals shldnt be more than 6 hrs..the stomach enzymes act up after that..NO project/job..i repeat,no project/job is worth an ulcer !

4. Take a walk after meals...useful..otherwise zzzz at table...efficiency and effectiveness drop after meals...human physiology ki baat hai..avoid a 7-course meal..for a working-day lunch afap..
And..dont try to fight something that comes naturally to you...accept it,work with it..if you are sleepy,take a break..instead of making a mess of the work !

5. Most important... YOU and YOUR HEALTH are important ! 2 mins,2 hrs,2 days,2 years..wont make the slightest diff to your work..if you work smart and work hardly...not hard..thats the key..and..irrespective of that..always...YOU ARE IMPORTANT ! you are not married to your job..divorce it if you feel it's not worth your while or vice versa ! but stay committed, if you like even an iota of it...just like marriage..
:)

*I dont keep a waterbottle on my table...Will force me to walk to the water-filter that much more regularly..also..ensures i stick to all 5 rules..
On the other hand,a colleague remarked,you mite not even drink water then..my retort,and it's a fact "Doesnt happen with me ! Aisa hi hoon mein..Mein aisa kyon hoon ? "*

:D

Ok..Enuf health fundas...add some more if you have any..in the comments...will update if i feel it's worth everyone's while..
:)
