Door Bell

How many of us love door bells, I have no clue, but when I'm inside my house, I hate door-bells :P. Trust me, as now I'm in the "home maker " mode, door bell are the vamps/villain [ not sure which gender it would be , going with hindi...  घंटी बजी  ... its feminine , but घंटा बजा is masculine, so confused!!] of our lives.

When we bought this house, we chose the mildest of door bell, which at times is not audible to us as well, if we are in the corner most bathroom, or in deep sleep and fan is running at full speed. Ok so that was the secret, outside people don't know about it, hence they need to assume that our door bell is in working condition.

Now, again talking about my home maker mode , my inability to go out and purchase stuff [ or rather my laziness to get ready and along with it, dress up the kid as well, and go and purchase stuff, ] I buy all my stuff online, not online actually, near to our apartments there are those local shops , who also deliver to home once you order them on phone, so its basically home delivery. And when I say "All" its ALL... from grocery to medicines to ice creams to outside food... I mean everything :D

So with home deliveries, every now and then door bell rings, ok I ordered it so I should not complain about it, but the worst thing is as we have the mildest sound, once the outsider press the button he expects that even he would listen to the bell sound, but it doesn't happen and so he presses it again and again... and finally after third attempt when he is still unable to hear, he starts knocking... bang bang...phew!!!

I actually have forgotten the count , as how many times I scolded the delivery guy... -कितनी बार घंटी बाजोगे ..grrrrrrrrrrr...but it doesn't help, because every time the delivery guy changes :P. But I still keep my spirits alive and continue scolding ;-). That's determination !!!

I'll reiterate this again, being a home maker is not an easy job... door bell, phone bell, cooker ki seeti, baache ka rona, my favorite tv serial, padosan ki gossip, maid ka rona, doodh wale ki jhik jhik.... and the list could go on................

Whatever... just ENJOYING!!!

My Beliefs

So now with a new life in my arms, I'm out of office these days, spending whole of my time with him. And trust me, I'm just loving it. I mean who says, being a home maker is not cool these days. Its just awesome !!

Just being home, is much more fun then those boring meetings and deliverable's. Not much has changed actually, I was managing a team there and now managing my maids and home, I used to slog to work in office , here also I do that, but I can be assured that I'll get some rest. I don't have to work for any performance incentives, I just work to make this a better, healthier and happier place. Ok, the only + point was I was getting paid[ and I  know that point basically weighs more than anything] but then I thought, nowadays people don't have like 3-4 children, usually they just plan for one and end the story, so if I don't spend time with my only child, wouldn't I be missing soooooo much and those moments are priceless.

As I see him growing day by day, my belief grows more stronger that ... life is really beautiful and you just need to KEEP FAITH.

The Art Of Burping!!

So, the other day when "he and me" were discussing on burping, he shared how his grandmother used to take loudest possible burp with sounds followed by hari om!!And, if I recollect even in my family I did heard those sounds after any meal!

And I said - I guess we are used to that kind of sound. Its now that we stepped out of our homes and know all these etiquette and manners that we try to reduce our sound and in a controlled manner , otherwise even we would have been one of those who makes the loudest possible sounds audible atleast 10 ft :).

I always appreciate "God" for his engineering and again with the burping art I got another chance to appreciate him once again. I mean what a science... the air you swallow while eating , is trying to escape and hence we burp!!

As a kid when I used to drink limca... which is still one of my fav soft drink , I remember my Einstein bro told me a strategy to let that gas escape... open your mouth and nose and let it go!! After every drink, when I was about to burp I used to open my mouth wide and nostrils much wider [atleast I tried] so that all gas can escape at one go but no luck :)

I googled about burping, and found that even this has a world record of longest burp being some one minute and x secs..Oh Boy!! How could you burp for so looong and that tooo in a planned manner , my imagination is not going that beyond so I'll leave the world record.

But as a matter of fact "the more you burp the less you fart" ;) now that's easy gas has to escape from somewhere... it all depends which system of your body is working hard for you :P

So how do you burp?The loudest possible ..or you let it go as light as feather ..

I feel , the "way" is not important... more than following the principle of letting it gooooooooooooooo.....

Just to Post

Since the day I have changed the password of my work machine, I m not able to digest that thing and eager to puke out that I have set the funniest password in my life. But irony is that, I cant share that...Every time whenever I login I  feel happy about it and praise myself.

I know its not a big deal, but still at times sharing gets so important. Anyways... that was it on password!!

Just other day, while watching TV where they highlighted watch India v/s Pakistan on channel # xxx, I switched and when they showed India Team line up... I was surprised that Virat Kohli is the captain and apart from him, I don't know any other face!! Ahhhh... that's when I thought when was the last time I had watch a match, I mean it was really a saturation... every now and then some league/series and so much BUZZ, that I thought I'll take  a break but it seems it was a bit longer break!!

Yesterday night I had the weirdest of dream possible...dont know how... but I met Kareena Kapoor , and she then cut my nails [which were really in bad shape] then gave a hair cut as well..I mean all by herself and my mother after seeing me, appreciates me that every time you should get haircut from her only!! thats like the weirdest dream possible!!

Jargon

A misty morning makes you feel like a new born ...full with energy and passion

Again a change in routine and again thought of blogging..!!!

Well this should be the umpteenth attempt and again with the same will power to succeed!!

Since last few days, I was really in dilemma as I was looking for a cook but not sure if I would be comfortable with it [Yes, I m bit fussy about food and its preparation] but finally gave it a try so I get full two hours [that too morning hours] at my disposal .. I mean I can waste it like I want... time is really a luxury!! ;-)

As I look back [just six months back] I was a typical common man... struggling with home...work and its arrangements[its not that I didnt had time but you know , being a lazy hippo I feel just to chillax]... but today I feel I m the QUEEN have so much to do coz I have time.... yayyyy!!

So lets see... whats next in terms of blogging and if life has any other surprise ...I m waiting for it :-D

Roti,Kapda,Makaan Aur Google!!

Now I have to agree to that , Google is the basic necessity of life. Trust me.. I can't think of any answers [right or wrong]myself. Its always like  Google kar lo!!

Few days back I was reading this somewhere on net, that a Microsoft was presenting something and he narrated

So for instance you are on net and you would like to search something you would goooooo...... and then he paused and said bing it!! You'll bing it!! 

Don't  remember what was mentioned about the audience if they smiled or not but search has  a new synonym I guess and that's GOOGLE.

But when you type in "Google" on any of the browser ... IE,Chrome,Mozilla ... you just get the list of Google and its extended apps. At least on Bing when you type Google, they do return Wikipedia page[ courtesy to the rivals] but what about the "good words" being posted about Google on net. Do they actually care/acknowledge them?  Like this post when I'm declaring Google as  a basic necessity .. Do they really care!!!

But there is other side of story as well, we use Google so often and how many of us are actually thankful to them? Ahhhh... chicken and egg story :)

Last Month of 2013!!!

Oh man!! Last month of the year. I mean how time flies... god knows!!

My memories of 2013 new year celebration are still fresh and its about to end. Should I feel happy about it as time is flying soon which means I 'm having a good time or is it I'm just so occupied that hardly realize about time, date, month...year!!

TV shows have again started wrapping up top 100 news, songs, movies, soaps, ..actor...bikes, cars... of the year 2013. On the other hand astrologers are busy writing ... २०१४ में कैसा होगा आपका भविष्य!!! Same goes for IT companies, getting new budget approved for the new financial year :)

All busy in en cashing money from each moment, as I in this moment just feeling good about writing back something...on my own blog!! Nothing more!!

वक़्त बिताना है तो बीत जायेगा

बीता हुआ पल ना लौट के आयेगा

पर आने वाले पल को कुछ यू बिताओ

की ज़िंदगी में हर पल

यादगार बन जाये

The New Thing

To Start something new , why is it we are filled with anxiety and doubts!!

There would be 'n' number of people against you but some 'n' would still support you. You count on their support but also have a doubt if it doesn't work you would break their trust!! Ahhhh... again expectations and then desire to fulfill them :D

Whatever... You need to trust yourself... whatever happens its to teach you a lesson may be of failure or success!! :D

Just back from Rishikesh .... mesmerizing view!!

An Expression!

And it all started with it..
Those moments
which are inseparable

A drop in the ocean..
Was it just that small..
Or a trip to moon..
Was is soooo far...

It had its crunch
More like Saturday brunch
Or just a lousy day..
Sipped as a ginger tea

The illusion of being Perfect
The mystery of knowing all
The struggle to survive
The misery of being loved

And it started with it...
Those moments
which are inseparable

of an expression called LIFE!!

Tadka..

It not that I dont try to be regular , its just that daily routine of eating...office and driving is something which I dont like to narrate. There is more to this space!!

Life is just not about this routine .... well actually it is, routine as well but there are some spices which makes/change that routine and those spices are which make your life live-able!!

Wish each day we our hit by TADKA!! but then even that would be a ROUTINE :(

Words...

ये अनजान सी दुनिया में 

खोजते हुये ना जाने कही 

बहुत कुछ दिल को छू जाता है 

ना जाने कैसे और कहाँ 

वही वाक्या शब्दों में बयाँ हो जाता है 

Why is that penning down thoughts, emotions are so difficult? You can talk hours to criticize others, to argue on a silly point ( thats actually I do most of the times in our meetings) but penning it down. Ahh it so tough!!!!

You need a good vocab, you need some logical arguments and you need some audience as well to read that!

But my own space here... you can just pen down anything ... any emotion... any arguement....any stupid idea, any crazy moment, any crush, any expression...just anything but yes YOU NEED AUDIENCE here as well :)

FB Updates!

Well I'm not a BIG Fan of FB may be coz of my old age that FB/any such sites doesnt interest me any more or may be they are so crappy that one can't like them.

With that said... I still exist on FB not to provide my updates but to check what others are upto....

And that weekly status check results in confusion ...coz mostly people have common updates like this

-- Ohhhh sooooo cuteee..

--My Bundle of Joy

--Oh my my.... model look!!

--Arrey waah... nice chappal! (people could post pics of their chappal as well)

-- For Bday people... "n" which ranges from 1 to your frd list
    -- Happy Birthday
   -- Happy Birthday
   -- Happy Birthday
  -- Happy Birthday
  -- Happy Birthday
  -- Happy Birthday

Its like all look alike message... !!

--And then another one where people flaunt all their gift items...
   -- My "n" bday present --- Tiffiny's
   -- My "n" Bday present -- Hardley Davidson

Some people who come under total veila panti category

  --Would keep on "liking" their friends status which would be like

What a Sunny Day!!

Temp - 5..chilling!

And then couple of them, who are anyways at home doing nothing watching some crap LIVE match of Football, cricket, Tennis... and would like to "Cheer"

-- Come On Man U!!
-- Ohhh Sania... you have to make it!!

Whatever I got a post out of it!! ;)

Done with my veilapanti :P

Phases Of Life!

With each phase of life, is it that “way of thinking” change?

Not sure but do you think at 40 our heart would skip a heartbeat for SRK or any new damn hot guy.  Would still we be in that teenage kinda attitude?Or that newly married couple!

My point here is as I was going through my old post I really felt – Are these jotted down by me? Like I was so fresh ! Yes I know praising yourself is not good but I really felt positive about my old post, now those fresh post … funny , thoughts to ponder , aggression has changed .

Every day my first thought is to be calm ! Let not anger rule me! I feel now I have more responsibilities and so I make a point to care about me which in turn can help me to provide care to my family be it with food or health or money related!

Each phase of life allows you to learn a lesson and taste the experience of lifetime!
