Friday Yay!!

Well I do have a few things to share….I tried my hand at a paneer dish yesterday. I dint know what to call it until I finished preparing. Finally I named it shaahi paneer :D It turned out well and everyone loved it. I was so happy!! :D

Today I wore my bright pink kurta to office! I was tired of the same old sober colour formals. It’s a little saddening to be looked down upon by other Indian Chicks who are prim and properly dressed in western formals. But who cares. I am happy. And I love to get tongues wagging :p

I am weird in that way.

Anyhoo I dared to go out to the library with Mon without the coat. It was and still is windy. There is an emergency door behind me which has some opening like a tiny gap so we can hear the wind howling and it gets creepy at times. And every time I try to record it on the phone it slows down and stops. It got me bugged. So I stopped.

Here I go , I am digressing again. Well the library is awesome. And the membership is FREE!! This is one thing I love bout this place. Free books and newspapers. And most of the people are found reading on buses and tubes. I can stay here for a long long time if I don’t tire of the books. I feel bad to have wasted three months. I used to pass by this library everyday!! Well I did have other books to read though.

Gossip gal has pinged me. She has gone home back to India still she logs in. Workaholic! Anyways she is bitching bout chudail and I am in no mood right now. Well I spoke to her all is well.

Gotta go. Its Friday and I wanna go home!

OMG!! Was she being nice to me? Yes Her! She was talking to me smiling and being jovial. Omg I can’t believe this! Hmm this answers what was haunting me yesterday.

Decisions

I fear if I have made the wrong decision. If I should maybe pack my bags and run while I still have the chance. But I don’t wanna chicken out. I am getting aggressive as days go by. And that my friend is not a good sign. As I’ve been told earlier I live on extremes. I don’t know what will happen when I am pushed to the core now.

Gah! I finally got done with the nonsensical thing pending since last night, which I was worrying about unnecessarily. Well I worry constantly don’t I! Well I just don’t want to regret after going back that I lost an opportunity to do right by myself. I just have to keep faith going strong and walk on.

Easing the tension, lets talk about less tense stuff. Like C*s is back. Hope that chudail decides to steam off at his expense. Am I being mean? Hell, who cares! They both deserve each other. (Though I did hear his human side today while he was talking to his kid, it doesn’t count. Well I melt at such stuff…) what else, yes I have started writing again. That helps a lot when I am brooding in the room. The thing is I talk in my head. A lot! So whenever I feel like, I write it out to that person.

Mom is back home after her trip to Rishikesh. And I am so proud of her. She is not all that out going and adventurous but I am glad she went and had a good time. She was out camping in the woods without electricity and she went till level4 of white water rafting!! Aint she cool! And I myself haven’t done that! Tut tut shame on me.

I feel the urge to get a D-90 but I fear I might be splurging unnecessarily. Well it’s not like I am going to make a career out of it. Ummm who knows ;) A girl can dream.

My day to cook so will head home soon. I fear I might develop a sore throat : (

Sudden changes :)

18th Feb ‘10
12.43
Well turns out it wasn’t a big deal yesterday. The one I was worrying bout unnecessarily. All is well! Yesterday was a pretty ok night. Sam had already cut veggies. Prons prepared the dinner. Aaloo sabji, which was edible, pretty good for starters! I prepared surnali batter after dinner. Sam helped me clean up later. Pretty decent chap. He keeps talking of reducing smoking and boozing.

14.04

I just checked my mail to which date was my return ticket booked, it was 04 Mar and I had a gleeful smile. Well if all goes as planned I should be returning after 8 working days!! :D

19th Feb ‘10

15.51
How things change in a day’s time?! 24 hours back I was certain to be packing by 4th. Now it’s not the same case. I think this change of fate is thanks to CR. Yesterday went from bad to worse to better. I feel bad for silly things. So I was hurt when A said something insignificant bout not talking in tulu. I say insignificant cuz I am over it now.

18.19
Well all is well now because I let it go. Yesterday after the very hectic noon as I was leaving I stopped at CR’s desk. She gave me some gyaan and I implemented some of it today. She advised never to lose hope and focus. If I want something I have to go for it. Plan for it. Research it and be prepared for it. She is so wise. She knew BT stuff too. I dint know how or why I ended up pouring my story out to her. But it happened and for the good I believe.

She suggested me to spend time with the dev and also the traders to understand things better. I suggested this to Cena, along with this I also mentioned he needed to talk to Dhamak regarding the next resource to come as I am leavin in 8 working days!! :D ( well not in so many words but you get the gist). He was having another catch up with M in the meantime. But I mde sure he got my mail before that. He has asked me to stay back if I have no probles and to tell dhamak the same. I said I shall ask him, and he says “No you tell him I told so”.

Well I shall go with the flow. I will think bout it over the weekend and see how to proceed. Planning to visit Cambridge. Lets see how that goes. And yes, finally nanny got it from me. I dint take shit when she started teasing. I told her in her face I don’t like her jokes. There! Done that!

I would like to write some stuff I have been thinking about but haven’t had the time. Weekend will not give me much access to comp so see you on Monday!

Another day...another story

13.01

Day is moving at a snails pace. I have never been in such good spirits while I’m PMSing: D It was a relief.

The sanna polo was ok, Could have been better. I took some blog’s advice and added tur dal a bit which I think caused difference in taste. Anyways this is how I will improve. Trial and error!

15.53

Lunch was a hearty discussion on Mon’s mallu dishes and my amchi dishes. I plan to make surnali for tomorrow.

16.55

How time flies. Mon showed me something which he said would surprise me. Well it shouldn’t have but it did. Remember CR I had mentioned earlier, well she is on the cyberspace a pretty much known children’s writer. Then I tumbled across her blog and so did he. I just went through it all and it made me happy to know a little bit more bout her. She writes really well. And I liked few of her posts. I loved this bit of her’s dealing with everyday problems

18.11

I am so scared. Well it’s not like I sinned but when its new I am scared for every move. There was a query which I replied to after an hour of contemplation. I am not sure what is to happen now or tomorrow. It had been peaceful 3 days. I can’t wait to get back home. And Mon told me at lunch that this application was a problem and never a plan to be off shored. You know, this particular work has never been fun. The stress that entails this has even affected my health. I can’t wait to get back home. I’ve already said that haven’t I? well what shall be, shall be.

Wicked and Happy!

Umm I thought I should clarify before i proceed. I am not feeling happy cause i am wicked. I just come up with random, off the top of my head titles. So here goes today's post


Ooh I’m feeling wicked. He ha ha. Guess what occurred to me. Well today is the DAY! All vendors have been locked out as the contracts I assume have not been renewed. So card access does not work. System access thankfully works though I would have preferred few things not working. Anyhoo we need our access cards to use the restroom (weird! I know!) So this morning when I went, I borrowed chudail’s card and I was kicking myself that I dint have my cell phone with me. Well no worries there. I went again noon now she’s been captured bwahahhaha.. I know that’s not nice thing to do but its not like I will be using it with ulterior motive!! I would just like to show people back home how the chudail is :) hummrph!
13.10
I am getting a bad headache. Yesterday I had my legs hurting like a b@”£*! Today it’s my day to cook, I wanted to make daalitoy and sanna polo. Well one less job as there is dal already thanks to the master curry prepared yesterday. Then I was going through some interesting amchi recipe blogs which had my mouth watering. I so wanna eat surnali!!!

Yesterday I had the craving for ccd chocolate fantasy.
14.15
And you know what else is good about today other than me being wicked? The office communicator is not functioning for me so that means no annoying pings from the chudail. I will be back after lunch. I will have it alone as Jeeves had taken Mon and Jon out to wagamama as tomorrow Jon is heading back to India. I was little hurt initially for a min or two but then I was back to my jolly self happily looking uo amchi recipes.

And I do NOT wanna call the acid factory guys. Yes that’s what I’ll call their company. As it’s the name of an acid :) Because chotu has been pissing me off big time! It won’t be long before I lash out.

15.30:
Back! Could not eat lunch properly as dal had dried up and the rice too, plus my wisdom tooth that is sprouting. Spoke to ma as she is leaving to b’lore tonight and delhi the day after. I have been reading lot of dilli mumbaiyya blogs which is making me wish to go there sometime soon. Also Ladakh! I have to have visit it! And its not just cause I am reading Jeffery Archer’s Paths of Glory. Can you beat this I am actually reading stuff on investopedia!! : )

Oh yesterday I went out with the gossip gal to McD’s aise hi. And she was as usual non-stop chatter but I was ok. I felt I needed to spend more time with people than with inanimate objects.

17.00
Its just 5 and I wanna go home already. Why doesn’t time fly now? Head ache seems to be easing a little after applying my fav axe oil. I don’t know what I would do without it.

18.24
Time to make a move. Not a bad day. I think it is only going to get better after this. On that note I will say adios!
