How am I supposed to give a new topic EVERYDAY?

At my bus stop today, I happened to notice a big bright star that hung right above a shop that I passed by everyday...twice. "Merry Christmas" was written on it and it just occured to me that is has been 5 days since Christmas, so probably the Big bright star was hanging there since 5 days and I had not even cared to notice it. Too Bad. I chided myself on behaving like a robot [ trained to go to the bus stop and back] and not look at my super-human mumbai surroundings.

Read "five point someone" and its an absolutely fantastic and hilarious book. Started reading it in the local train on my way back home. Just 3 pages into the book and I was laughing loudly with all the fellow "inmates" of my compartment looking at me as if I was from Mars :) But the book is just outstanding in its narration and you feel so much a part of the story. well, I felt extra close because of the "Neha" character :)

Have started reading "Veronika decides to die". Lets see why.

Plan to catch up on TV on new year's eve like I used to when I was in boarding school. It would be such a big affair- getting to watch TV the whole night.We would come and sit in the TV room a little before 10pm so that we caught just the right places. It was difficult to get a good view of the TV when you are sitting 6 ft below it....but that rarely was a concern for those woh missed the "right" places :) we would be just happy to get a glimpse of the long forgotten "DD Metro". And now I come to realise how much I miss school.Every small thing excited us...

And once again....its the last week of the year

For some very strange reason, new year brings upon a cloud of depression around me. Its the time of the year, when the past kind of flashes around you. You remember the various new year resolutions that you made and subsequently broke :)) And then finally it comes back to you that the entire year just kind of flew by. I can't think of any one thing that I did during the past year that I am proud of :( (Not counting the Old lady in the local train, that was my duty :) )

Today was good....10 hrs in office and still counting :) Was able to set up the clustered server here after 15 days of trying. Will probably write a mail to my Oniste leader informing him abt this. Am thinking of telling him that this is the New Year's gift :)) Nowadays, I kind of enjoy my time in office. Getting some intersting stuff to do...[of course, the non interseting things- I delegate ;0) ]

Have to give a presentation tommorrow. I have no clue on what I am going to speak. So I guess, I shall make a move from office right now, with the printouts of all kinds of documents :))
