Fun times...

Hmm.. sitting in office and writing this post. Am in a Friday mood and really don't feel like working. So thought will just chat up a little. :-)

Furthermore not interested in working as am pretty anxious.. waiting for a friend who is coming over tonight. It should be a real fun weekend. Hmmm.. Let's see.

Last weekend actually turned out to be better than I had expected. London was fun. Beautiful weather... awesome tubes.. good architecture.. over crowded at places to make me get that you-are-back-in-Delhi feel :-)... a good day's awesome cricket at the Home of cricket.. lots of beers with friends... Lovely food... so a good deal altogether.

Talking of food.. man I can never forget the food I had at Nando's... It was just bloody brilliant..! I could not ever think that a man of as little an appetite as me can eat that much... I actually ordered a dish twice..! :-) and then awesome desserts too.. :-) It indeed was good food.. One of the highlights of the trip for sure.

What else... yeah it was good overall. And this weekend will again be super.. wow.. two back to back fun weekends... now that's a rare thing that happens to me these days. And I am just loving it!

Writing this post is taking longer than it should.. I hate these official discussion calls when I am in this mood and am writing. But then there's no getting around them is there? Nevermind.. I think I can manage a little work at least :-)

Will finally watch Zindagi Na Milegi Dubara.. can't believe that I waited all this time to watch this movie. Super reviews and all but had to wait. This friend of mine... ok enough... let me give her a name... let's call her Snow.. So yes, Snow asked me to wait as she wanted to see the movie (poor girl lives in a village and doesnt get to see Hindi movies in a cinema hall **grin**)... And I actually did.. Get to see it tomorrow then.. Now it better be good for all that wait! Will do some pubbing with her... Would be fun and I indeed am looking forward to it!

Alright.. enough for now.. c ya later then!

Cheers!

Excited.. Am I??

Coming weekend I am going to London. All the facts about this trip should get me super excited.. but somehow I am not.


The facts:

2000th test match in cricket history - 100th between India and England - Sachin Tendulkar looking at scoring his 100th ton and conquering the one ground he has not been able to do well on! - Test team no. 1 Vs Test team no. 2 - a series that will decide who remains on top - venue: the Mecca of cricket: Lords!! - And I am going to see this match!

Now, read the second line of this blog and you will think that I have really gone nuts not to be excited about this. But really - there are very very few things now-a-days that I really get super excited about. I dont know what is wrong with me but I have seen this happen. I take things very normally rather than the normal looking forward to that I always used to do. And trust me, it is more fun to experience something when you start looking forward to it weeks in advance. All that waiting makes it all the more fun to finally get there.

May be I am aging (I prefer this term than saying growing old :-)). With age, one tends to be more calm towards things. May be this is what is happening to me. I never wanted this to happen. I always wanted to keep that youth like fervor in my life. But I really am mellowing down. :-(

But still.. there are some things still that I do get excited about. Like a very dear friend of mine is visiting me next weekend... and I am so so so looking forward to it.. Yeah, I think I get the most excited now when I get to meet good friends of mine... And I don't think that this will ever change.. at least I hope that it won't! I always would luv to share a couple of drinks and catch up with people I luv being with.. and they are very few! :-)

What else do I look forward to now... hmmm... yeah.. I am desperately waiting for the last batman movie by Nolan! :-). cant think of anything else as of now... Will think about it and update! Introspection needed! Till then...

Cheers!

Scribbling...

Just a little over two and a half years.. and I am back :-)

Have moved to Amsterdam a couple of months back and then the house hunting, settling down etc etc. All done now and it is time to start having some fun.

Hmm.. fun... Now that's a fun word. Looking back, it has been missing for quite sometime now for me. Yes, I do some good stuff on and off but there's very little fun really. Have been feeling too alone also lately. Trying to change myself and get used to living alone. Though I have always believed that I am a bit of a loner, it is now that I really realize that it is not so. I like being around with people. And not just any crowd.. but the people I like. Good friends.

But where are they? I don't know. I need a friend. I need a lot of friends. Imagine, have been in Amsterdam but have not been doping... Have not been clubbing... Have not been traveling... Have not been doing nothing... Just have no company!

More so, I think I need a girl friend. I am just tired of being-alone-and-not-getting-over-the-past thingie. But I really do not know how to move on. Meeting the right girl is the key I think. The romantic side in me is getting lost deep inside somewhere. And I need someone before it gets totally lost! If not the right girl.. I think I will have to make do with some wrong ones on the path to discovery. :-D

And I don't know why I crib so much. This place is my favorite cribbing ground it seems. :-)

Anyways.. this was just some scribbling that I wanted to do. Basically giving some voice to my thoughts. I feel relaxed after doing so, though nothing changes and life is still the same. Same old shit! But still!

And I promise I will write more regularly now. That's a promise to myself.

Cheers!
