how busy is busy?

No this is not like one of those regular boring thoughts that i scribble here. What am asking you who all come here to read my blogs.

How busy are you?

Because I have found my answer.


"You are only as busy as you want to pretend or as busy as you are bad at managing your time or only as busy as you want to use as an excuse."


Why I am saying so.
When was the last time I saw the sunset or the sunrise. Its been a long long time. Last time was in thailand. But its not because I am busy. I am to goddamn lazy thats all. have been sleeping all weekends for almost a month now. Yes I have not been wprking that hard lateley. Timelines are tight but its okay kind of as there is more than sufficient breathing space.

Thats why I realise that its an excuse that comes up in our heads. Thats its too hectic of a schedule. It applies to me and if I am not mistaken then the same applies to you too.

SAD BUT TRUE.

"Eureka "..now ask me why I am so happy.
Because now when I know the problem is there and has been identified there can be some solution to this one too.

So buddies don't worry I am going to reply you all on time. Will not wait for the leisure time to write long mails to you. I am going to call you whenever the thought comes to my mind rather than waiting till the evening.

Hope this applies to you too.
My mobile is waiting and please don't keep eternally waiting like I was doing. That one min conversation is also as good and as appreciated then the wait for that long one. We don't have much to share or talk but still the enigma and warmth in the voice is something which itself means a lot to me ..and i think same holds a special meaning for you too.

technology and internet

hey pals..yes i have been on and off..bloggin erratically ..not much to share about.
There are few new dimesions in which technology has been influencing my life.

Considering the time spent online and the time spent talking over the phone, there is hardly any time spent doing something else. Finding information or GOOGLING has become the most confusing activity. Information is CHAOS and it becomes evident almost anyday now. There is so much information. Terrabytes of data that finding it and verifying it has become almost impossible.
websites like wikipedia are there. There is information but I am never sure what I am rreading is what? Whose point of view and whats it is. But thats the way it is now. Accepted and so before going to the movie I don't read review. Takes all the fin out. 20 reviews of a movie and you cannot decide what it is. To write your own you have to go and watch the movie. Intersting isn't it.

This is one aspect of it. On the other hand are things like PANDORA [http://pandora.com] try it out. This is unlike any other radio on the internet and for those who want to experiment with music this is the thing worth trying provided bandwidth is not a conern.

Though I have been lsitening to so much music these days that I cannot make out what is what. My DVD playes acts as an amplifier for the laptop thats all the use it has now a days. I have bought cds but not even put them into my ipod. Somehow it feels that there is no choice and options in the 30 GB of music i carry on my waist.

There is so much there to see and listen to in this world. I wonder were people referring to internet when they said "so much".

When we were small kids we waited weeks for episodes to come on TV. Now you can download all of them. Watch them one after there...but is there that much of fun in it now. Yes and No.

Somehow I feel when things become too easy to get. It becomes tougher to appreciate them. This is luxary or this is pain. Is this a vicious cycle. Whatever it is. this is it :) and its engulfing the whole of the existece.

Watch out..when is your turn ?

sea of change and breeze of fresh air

"Change should be incremental" my boss keeps saying all the time otherwise the resistance is higher. I tend to agree and dis agree both. But thats obvious isn't it because every body has his own fighting syle and mine is to strike with full force and take the enemy down. Anything less and its not a 100% effort.
Plan it meticulously, wait for the moment and then slither the problem or the enemy. Crude voilent but if plannes well one attack does the job. Misson Accompalished.

Naive isn't it. Yep I do agree.
So I do borrow his style some times.

I am working on so many thigns now a days that I am not even sure at times where to focus. Life is throwing up challenges and life style challenges are like HOLLOWS( BTW have u watched Bleach..am hooked to animation..google..an its bloody addictive) and am charging with my zamphaktu(soul slayer). They bog me down. Terrible mood swings and negative vibes are working on me but I am working...working out on these things.

Some things have been happening every week.
Professionaly am writing documents for a new system to be developed. Meetings have come down a bit. Chatting has gone up during the weekends.
As a surprise smoking has gone down and am swimming some times.

Lets see how far these things go..but am standing with my feet firm and slayer charged.


Just a quick update
Check out snaps on the photoblog. There has been some activity there :) and do leave some comments.
