Stock brokers to become Paparazzis.

"IPL teams to go public."

Interesting! and moreover I found it amusing. The moment I read it in the morning paper many thoughts flashed in my head of how different things would act as bears and bulls.  

Prices would fluctuate on how hot the cheer leaders would be. Players drunk and caught in a brawl in some pub in some part of the world, you will see the prices going down. Players in some news hooked with a Bollywood actress, prices to go down for fear of his distraction from the game or might be the other way round. (I sometimes never understand the market sentiments.)  A new bollywood actress to join in as a partner of a team, as in the case of Shipa Shetty in IPL season 2 would skyrocket the prices of the team. Injuries to any of the key players of the team, needless to say the consequences. Some Mr. Bhajji caught in a racist comment unaware of how well the hindi word rhymes with a name of a species in some other test match leading to some amount of bans, needless to say the consequences again. Hilarious it would be to watch the graph move and the reasons behind it. Stock brokers do have a new job in hand of sneaking into lives of the players.

As I see, stock brokers would soon become paparazzis.

Dumb and Dumber.

“Hi, Sajith here. A techie guy”.
Ooops! What was that? I didn’t mean to say it this way. Now he is giving me a “Oh yeah! Here is one dumb ass in our room” look. All heads turned towards me. Should I introduce myself again or should I not. That would be unintelligent of me again. Shit! What a fucking good introduction.

Wikipedia says:
Embarrassment is an emotional state experienced upon having a socially or professionally unacceptable act or condition witnessed by or revealed to others. Usually some amount of loss of honour or dignity is involved, but how much and the type depends on the embarrassing situation. It is similar to shame.

How embarrassing was that? This was how I once introduced myself. It all happened when our office took us for a technical – business meet. We representing the people from R&D had to meet the business and marketing guys and then it all happened. Introduce yourself. I wanted to showcase myself as one of the guy who is from a technical field unlike most of the people in the room comprising of business and marketing people. Something like I should have said “Hi, Sajith here, representing the people from XYZ, R&D” or a plain "Hi, I am Sajith" would have been decent enough, ended up saying “Hi, Sajith here. A techie guy”. My colleagues still tease me with that incident to the extent that my Birthday cake once had “Happy Birthday, Techie guy” written on it. How embarrassing!

Well it happens sometimes! Thing I would remember going ahead, feel embarrassed again and smile over my foolishness. Meanwhile I can see a scornful smile on your face.

[P.S. those who had witnessed this flop show of mine. "Maaf kar dhe yaar... hotha hai" ;) ]

Enlightened.

Read it once -

"Quoted in the vedas:

Donate with kind words
Donate with sincerity
Donate with happiness
Donate only to the needy
Donate with the intention that the receiver should prosper
Donate with your wife's consent
Donate to other people without putting your dependents in a helpless state
Donate without expectation because it is not agift, it is a duty
Donate without caring for caste, creed and religion"

Pop that cyanide into that damn guy's mouth.

Last year of my grads:

BoL (Bored of life Guy): Hey Sajith… u never serious about life right

me: huh!.. ahem.. whats the matter? Chomp… chomp… chomp… (had a big piece in my mouth)

Met this guy in a local pizza center…. Hostel days … Pizza hut was a luxury during those times…

This I-mug-up-everything-that-doesn’t-make-sense guy comes to me and offers to give me a piece of his mind, Now, why in the hell did he feel like that? Beats me.. me not a kumbh ke mele mein ghooma hua bhai of his .. not atleast by the way he sees life and me mine and we share that Hi-bye relationship in the college.

BoL: boss.. look at the way u waste your life. When is the last time you held a book in your hand. Exams are just round the corner. Its September and just 7 more months to go. ( Now whts up with this guy I wouldn’t have said this to anyone whose exam is just 7 hours away.)

Me: Dude… its September and 7 more months to go …and u sit the whole day study, don’t even have the time to see the latest mallika sherawat movie, when was the last time you saw the pot in the loo? Shame on a creature like you.

Boss ! enjoy life, freak out a little. Go out on long rides. This is the time, You wont get it again.

BoL: yaar mein uss type ka nahi hun! Mere mom dad hai ghar mein (as if I am born and brought up in an orphanage) behan hai , uski shadi karana hai , yeh karna hai who karna hai.. uska who karna hai… … … karna hai……… … .. . . . . . karana hai….

(by that time I had finished my 12” pizza… trust me at that time I had an amazing appetite 12” inch was nothing)

There goes the typical I-have-Angelina-in-my-arms-but-I-am-not-happy kinds and his saga of whom he wants to look after and his uncle’s brother’s wife’s son’s marriage’s expenses he will jot down.

Me: lekin yaar … Your dad runs a finance firm and must be having about 5000 shares in Reliance.

BoL: huh! Yeah… toh bhi yaar… life is not easy… see this is how life works. Its divided into two halves. If you enjoy the first half then you suffer the next half but if you suffer the first half then you will enjoy the second half.

Now, what was that about half life enjoyment and another about sufferings. How did he come to such a conclusion and the way he thinks. He should be recruited in the FBI as a third degree torture expert and the guy would end himself with a cyanide before saying anything. Fortuanately I didn’t have any with me at that time and vowed to carry it with me and pop it into his mouth the next time I see him and reduce the number of sucide attempts rather than me ending myself.

Well chodo…. Its his way of thinking and mine is different, but still do disagree with his funda of life of if and else…

if 1^st half enjoy then 2^nd half suffer

else

if 1^st half suffer then 2nd half enjoy;

These entire if and else and I-have-Angelina made me hungry and had to order another 12”. Damn those guys who make me hungry with those stupid ideologies of life and make me gain weight.

Is she the one?

The day I saw her
I asked "Is she the one?"

The day I met her
I said "She must be the one"

The day I held her hand
My hands said "Never leave this one"

The day I looked into her eyes
Her eyes asked "Are you the one?"

The day I said nothing
She said "You are the one..."

Look at the brighter side of things.. Mamu..!

Whats up with the Rain God.. seems to be very amused in making the clouds pour when we least expect it or is very confused between 26th July and September end and that he needs to stop and let winter come in.

You get up in the morning with each ray of light piercing through your shut eyes making you feel sure that it is not going to rain for eons to come and provokes you to apply sun screen lotion to protect your skin for the rest of the day. But as evening dawns suddenly from nowhere it pours cats and dogs with no time to reach the nearest pan wala shop or the nearest bus stop for a quick shelter.

Have experienced this thrice in four days and it still amazes me as to how innocent the sky looks early in the morning when you decide whether not to wear your leather shoes and carry the jacket along .. and then end up doing the same mistake again of wearing the leather shoes and not carry the jacket. To add to it the meteorogical department says "Aaj barish hone ki bilkul sambhavna nahi hai, aur thapmaan adhiktham pein thees degree celcius pahunchne ki anumaan karthe hai". How right they are about the later part but the first part about "barish hone ki bilkul sambhavna nahi hai" is like saying "Laloo ne politics aur gai charana chod dhiya and will join a non-profit organisation for human well being". Sometimes makes a fool of you when you ostentate your new polaroid and the next minute you will be running helter skelter looking out for the nearest shelter and then end up standing underneath an eye clinic with your polaroids on. Aage bathana padega..iska mathalb kya hai!

Look at the brighter side of things people say... Huh! .. let me try... here is one.My room is at the top floor and is a furnace when you reach home in the evening, the rain cools it down.Great example of seeing things in a positive way...isnt it! :D

btw, Saw Lage raho yest.. hangover hai.. isliye "Mamu" in the Title

Sigh!

There are times when no one understands you, everybody just seems to feel that you are wrong. Thats when you feel like staying quite and just be in your own world. Testing time I would say. Today is that day. I had a bad time in the morning and no one seems to understand my point, thats when i felt i should rather stay quite, look upwards and sigh. Feel like going home and sleep away and forget about it. Colleagues seems to notice my silence and question about it. But I stay silent. Wait for my eight hours in office, wait for the dawn and let the day pass by.
Thats when this helps... pen it down.
