I Want to Win.

I want to win.
I want to kill.
I want to rule.
I want the speed,
I want to succeed.

But Want is not the only component to start.
But Want is not the only component to achieve.

You want, you do and you do it again.

Its hard or may be it is easy, you do
And you do it again.

It is pain, It is Insane
But you do it again.

You’re close and when you’re closest
You flop! You stop!

You do, you did and I know you will.

There is a force you can’t control,
There is some one who cuts short your role.

Some call it Destiny.
Some call it Fate.
And some say ‘You were just not that great!’

So I wait as no one can change my fate.

I’ll try this time or may be
I’ll fly this time.

I do, I did and
I know I will.

It is just a matter of time
It is just a short delay.

I will win.
I will kill.
I will gain speed and I will succeed.

End of an Era.

It’s been 23 years here, which implies since I came into this world I was introduced to this place. I share an aura, some emotions, some feelings, and all my memories with this place. Memories of happiness, sadness, excitement, warmth ….

The walls that surrounded me are all set to change... I see people mercilessly destroying what used to be my home, my living room, my study any ways these people are not the ones who are to be blamed its their job.

Just a few bricks, concrete and a heap of gravel and sand is now what used to be my living room, I enter my study room the place where I pretended to study, the place which had my PC which made me sit their for hours, the place where I had some interesting long phone conversations, the posters of the Ferraris and the BMWs are still on the walls but I don’t see a ceiling over head, they smashed it down.

I had a veranda with a few trees which are axed and are now just a few bunches of dry leaves, having a veranda in a place like Delhi is some kind of luxury but will soon be a thing of past for me.

The stairs still go to the terrace but the structure doesn’t have a terrace any more.

‘All good things must come to an end’ and this era, this phase ended too. The structure which was build in some 1970s has to come down for the people of 2010.

So I somehow manage to detach myself from my old house which belonged to my ancestors and was designed according to them. Every day comes to an end and one should optimistically look for a new day, I do the same.

Enthusiastically looking forward to what I’ll see at my place a multi storied building with some ample parking space, a classy front elevation, an elevator etc etc, which will provide happiness and protection to my family members in the future and to my future family members as well for the next few decades.

Life goes on!

I’m hurt it pains
But life goes on.


A sleepless night, a morning head ache
But life goes on.


I’m hurt it pains, I don’t look for sympathy
I move on.


Listing the things I have got instead of
What I have not, I move on.


Some good ol’friends and some people who care
And life goes on.


Listening to some peppy numbers
And revin’up a virtual Mustang again.
Life goes on.


Some new found hobbies.
Some challenges to face
And life goes on.


Loving myself again.
Life goes on.


Life full of targets and life full of goals
I have to play many roles.
So Life goes on!

Recession, Me and My First Blog.

In India almost 80% parents or more than that want their kids to be doctors or engineers. And I was born in a similar kind of family.


After fun filled 12 years of school life. It was time for me to decide. I didn’t have very good grades or very high percentage in my 12th but still I got admission into an engineering college. Thanks to all these private engineering colleges spread all over the NCR getting an engineering degree wasn’t that tough. At least I took a subject of interest Computer Science. And being a "Computer Engineer" just sounded good, so I decided to be one.


My college was situated in Gurgaon and I am not talking about gurgaon city. This place was actually situated in a gaon, a village in gurgaon which was 60 km from my place and that meant 120 km of traveling in a day for four years sometimes by bus ,sometimes by cabs, some times driving on your own and other variants. If I would have traveled that much in one go I would have reached the moon. The next four years were certainly not the best four years of my life. With marginal and short attendances I somehow completed my eight semesters. And after completing my final sem I was almost a “computer engineer” I was posting my CV’s distributing them to my friends, family and any other person in my field of work. As my college provided us with benches a building n sometimes a faculty and students getting placed or not was not their concern.


The big question "When companies are kicking out their own employees how can they hire you? "…the recession.


Nowadays I wake up 12:30 pm in the morning (sorry afternoon!) rubbing my eyes going to the loo doing all the daily stuff then I sit back in front of my PC and go through random known/unknown face book profiles(mostly females) and sometimes I admire my own profile for 20 to 25 mins :)


Its 2pm I m having my breakfast mum is back home she asks "if this is your breakfast when will be your lunch?? Are you enjoying your winter vacations?? ".

I don’t respond I am habituated to all this. Remote in my hand I m surfing through channels Zee Studio: Sliding Doors, MTV: Hell Down Under, Aastha: Some baba doing yoga ..n so on ..

Recession made me lazy, Recession made me a couch potato.


I am back to my PC watching ice age the 3rd time.

Recession made me a movie buff, a movie critic, a movie analyst. I can watch up to four movies in a single day, I love it though.


It’s 6.30 pm I go for pool and some old school friends and a few more we play, we bet, we win, we loose. Recession made me gambler too.


I am back home, dad is back from work too. I say “hello”. No Responses .He is busy watching CNBC watching those indexes going down. He doesn’t say anything but I can read his facial expressions, I can read those questions....


“What have you planned??”

“Are you doing something constructive??”

“What about MBA?”


I have dinner. I am back to my PC reading random blogs , stupid newsletters, no use on- job training emails. I am awake till 2am reading random stuff.

Recession made me a Night Owl.


And Recession made me write My First Blog. ;)


I hope the next time you read a blog by me its about me being associated with a good brand. Or me getting into a good B-school.

Ciao.
