R@!n & P@!N

Today I am at office sitting dull n feeling grumpy. Don’t know, not feeling too great. May be it’s the weather effect. So I thought of scribbling down some thoughts

It’s raining like cats n dogs here in Mumbai n I am actually having a scary feeling when I came to know that it will stay like this till October. its painful yaar. Gosh its stinky n dirty n irritating if it rains 24 * 7 and you can’t enjoy it coz you need to cross those dirty areas trying to make a way only if you are good enough at the MATRIX STUNTS – by NEO, coz while crossing the roads in between those BEST buses and Auto walas in a hurry to touch the finish line (that is only visible to them n is for them) makes you run for your life.
But still it’s not your school anymore, you need to reach office on time whether its raining or not raining, whether you want to or not, but I guess its part n parcel of the phases of life that comes and go. You need to adapt.

Work life is so different. Me enjoying the kind of change it brought to my life n schedule. The way of planning things has drastically changed. Running for our own needs all alone and making an effective plan for every penny you spent to keep track of things, Man it’s different. Now Dad “a banker provided to every child by God” is no longer our instant cashier or ATM. But it feels good to be independent monetarily and to manage our own resources. Its feel great when you’ve been addressed as MAM from different people at different levels, when you’ve been asked for your distinctive opinion and when your opinion matters.

I attended a SUPER GROUP on Saturday at a five star hotel called Renaissance. It was a good experience. I notice that it’s not that easy to have a creative bent of mind. Supergroup is a kind of discussion where the participants are asked to be creative about designing a concept of the product under discussion and there is fun, khana peena and friendly atmosphere. The participants or super groupers as professionally called are people from various walks of life who are creative. Met some big shots ;) It was a mix an match of people from different arenas, one was an enthusiastic old age housewife aunty, who was good enough to give explanations for all the queries raised and other was 23 yr old female who was been congratulated for her first job. Some one was as handsome as Farhan Akhtar and other one was as funny as a clown who keeps on rolling on the floor and missing his beer.
We discussed their transformation phases in life, there view on different perspectives that will help our clients to analyze their point of view which will help them further in their research. So a concealed way of letting your opinions help your product being designed.
Now this is Creative and qualitative.


This was Saturday, and now a day gone by, so not at all a feeling of weekend will sweep in. Sunday a day should be renamed as Loafday where you feel like lazing around and nothing else. We wet for a movie SARKAR RAJ… dnt know about others but I find it resistable Atleast it’s once a watch. To be frank I don’t like people who go into the nitty gritties and logics of every scene in the movie, come on it’s for your entertainment and fantasies, don’t try to be a detailist you can discuss it, but to be upset with it is like ehhhhhhhh….
So all three of us, Mr nagar, Suicide n me went to Mcdonald and then were loitering around for some while. The clouds were shouting on us, ‘ pls pls go home so that I can pour as much as we want’, so as soon as all three of us reached Home it started raining like crazy n all our shopping plans went in danger. But yup we were safe.

Then nothing we were lazing around made some poha n soup n was YUMMY!!!!!! Fought and then wahi sab TP. So over all it was an eventful day.

Today morning it was raining badlyyyyyy n we got out early to be on the safer side but in vain, we still could not reach early as the trains got late, rain Hang over ;) I guess. people calling left right n centre asking about our well being, coz news channels are there to make it THE MONSOON STORM, a hype. " Mumbai drenched " but guys it always do, haan but the media is highly active now :) more than required.

Nweys reached office on time, but was busy only for two hrs, n ab vallieee, waitin for the right resources to do my work :)

Chalo yaar, got to continue with something , yeh office hai :)
cya
