A New Dawn




Today I feel very relieved. This morning I walked my way to the office, rather than taking a bus which I usually do. This was because day ticket expired yesterday and thus as I'm leaving for New Zealand toorrow, I thought may be I should walk for a day to my office than spend on a weekly ticket which I wouldn't use anyways. I feel fresh today and guess I should start some kind of morning exercise as this is really helping me to stop lazing around and waste my time.

Last weekend we had been to the Noth Stradbroke Island which is very near to Brisbane. We had taken a train to the last stop on the way to the same, but had to get down the trin in between as there was maintenance work being done on the tracks. We had to get aboard another bus which was supposed to take us to another train station from which we could avail a train to Cleveland from where we had to catch the ferry. But as we sat in the connecting bus and waited for it to start, we heard a man announcing that if there are people to go the Island, they had arranged for a bus which would directly take them to the ferry terminal. We were the lucky few and were really amazed t get into the bus and amidst the slow music and nobody but ourselves comfortably reach the ferry terminal. Then we boarded the ferry and had amazing pictures taken on the way. The island was very scintillating. There was great rock formations aroung the sea and I could remember watching such picturescue palces in hindi movies. We took the gorge walk, seen some dolphins, then surprisingly a whale far in he ocean taking dis in and out, splashing its tail. We were really amazed at the scene. Then I took a quick dip in the beach waters and we got on with our way back as it was time for our ferry as well as it was getting very cold.

I'm leaving for Sydney tomorrow, hope I'll have the time of my life there..

Reminiscence




well I had created this blog long back.. but have had not shown as such an interest in blogging...
I was going through sneha's blog in which she had narrated her experiences and how these shaped her thought and actions..
I am in a confused state, donot know which way to go..
I guess I should give myself time and think what I want from life, I also want to speak to some close friend of mine so that I am able to explain them how I feel and seek their guidance and motivation. I am not able to concentrate on my work which is a king of Industrial training which Im doing at Brisbane with a consulting firm.
I miss my friends back in India, life here's very still like a sea with no waves..
everybody here is busy with their own personal life, which is not the kind in India I guess at least.
I miss the fun I had with my friends at IIT.. I miss my wingies.. I also miss my school friends Sneha and Nilofer.. who had been on my side since my school..
Well I feel like being caught in a storm all alone.. there are people who care for you, but are very far..
I am happy with life, am excited about the future opportunities I would avail working for a good company but I certainly lack proper company here and also friends of my age and thought..
I have plans to visit New Zealand and Sydney next weekend and am taking three working days off for the same.. I like just roaming around places when I have free time.. I hope I'll have a great time in New Zealand.. I had always wanted to go there once in my life.. but am missing apt company.. Im going there with a gy from IITG who's doing his intern at Uni of QLD.. he's a fun loving guy.. but at times I wish I had more company and people of my age..
Recently, I had this terrible cold which assumingly I got it from a lady in my office, but thank God, I'm perfectly fine now.. and am planning to enjoy this weekend of mine..
Today is Sushmita's bday and I get thoughts of how we had celebrated it last year when I was interning at Perth . We had lots of company then.. Hera, Sid, Shobhit, Shubham - IITD, Chansa - IITG, Chikki, Marut, Dilip, Sush, sanhita and me- KGP..
We had bought the cake at David Jones .. an expensive one.. I also remember sid's bday cake.. once we had a lemon cake which very few had liked.. so the next time we were careful enough to get a chocolate one..
We had so much fun and the company there was so awesome.. How would I ever forget those days of my life..
I guess I have written enough for it to be my second post.. I guess this way of blogging is good ina way that I feel relaxed and free that I have narrated my feelings even if I'm missing my friends..

Being called a 'stupid'

Yeah, this day in my life, after many days have I heard this sensible word, I should have been called even before this day for my acts. This great task was accomplished just simply on my mobile phone by a friend of mine I had met after a long time though I had not expected such a positive response for my non-sensical activity of misunderstanding or being misunderstood.
But, as this is my first blog I would like to write this on the event that ocurred today. A friend of mine 'a girl' and me a boy had met after four years. Though classroom in eleventh and twelth standard only pertaine to studiousness and talks also consisted of algebra and organic chemistry as both of us were prepaing for JEE.
Dedicating this blog of mine to the lady who taught me how to start a blog, I tell my story. I had called to attend my college literary festival for three days. I guess she was cross to me when I forgot to lift the heavy luggage she was carrying to the girls' hostel, and I asked for it when we had reached the same, she carrying it and the answer was rather grim, as I understand.
Though she had told me that she was going to participate in a team event, and I guessed she knew that. Fate told me this day what I truly was, and I agree to be one.
