my world last week...

the pro's of the week gone by:

1) heard from a friend after 6 years...she's now married and has a 1yr old baby boy named 'om' (long live ekta kapoor!!)


2)learnt that sometimes all u need to get a little help is just ask...but its not the same with advice...u dont need to ask...it comes to u irrespective of whether u need it or not ...sigh!

3)received a real cute mail from someone which had me smiling even long after reading it :)

4)realised that 'wash and wear' clothes make me look slimmer...yayyyyyy!!....its time i revamped my wardrobe :p...

5)went on a surprise junkfood binge...bhel,sev puri,kababs,paav-bhaji,golgappa...had it all...yumm!! *satisfied grin*...it started first as a stress buster, then as a reason to celebrate in ecstacy (over india's victory as the aussie team bites the dust...HIP HIP HURRAY!!) and finally has now become an addiction :-/

6)caught up with reruns of my once-upon-a-time-fav show 'mind ur language' ...

7)got a lotta messages from friends asking if everything was fine and saying that i was being missed...made me feel good :)

the con's of the week gone by:

1)realised i'd probably done a big mistake by giving up my job after a friend told me that she couldent get in inspite of having a pretty impressive CV...

2)was further made aware of the foolish mistake by another friend who winced after he got to know i walked out of 'apollo group of hospitals'...:(
[but snapped out of the depression soon enough and decided that i dont really need to speak to people who dont understand me enough and that ultimately its my life and my decisions which i need to sort over time]

3)thought a lot about a lot of things and realised that probably im taking too much time to sort things out :(

4)stepped on the weight scale and realised i have gained 4 gross kgs in 2 weeks after all that gorging on junk food ...boohoooo!!sob!sob!


5)missed home...missed the air...missed the faces...missed the streets...and most of all missed the sea-food...though now have gotten a bit used to it,20 days were enough to get me missing all that, no matter how convenient and comfortable everything seems to be...:(

6)got to know how business minded people are and that even friends at times, have their own selfish interests camouflaged behind the sweet talk and concern...
reminded me of fav quote by oprah ---"i dont need someone who'll ride with me in my limo...what i need is someone who'll take the bus with me when my limo breaks down" :)
i realised that probably im not lucky enough...


hmmmm i guess somewhere last week made sure it struck a balance...

@ maverick
thanku thanku...but guess hitting the treadmill would be a much cheaper option :(
as for the job thingie,thankuuuu...but im right now in the mourning period of a almost impulsive but necessary quit :-/...
so gotta wait till i snap out of it and get some really important personal issues sorted :)

@ gunj
yeps...me too...she sure has a way with words :)
as for SRK, my friend just hates him (sigh! i know i know...such ppl still exist)..so she's more likely to have named her baby influenced by ekta kapoors 'kggk'...sad! i know :-/

@ nisha

@ ashu

Anonymous said...

rocking post. but I wonder why things turn out true from such random posts. Many of us can relate those bits of gyan :)

WritingsForLife said...

aww... i know the feeling of home sickness. but through experience, i must tell you that you will get used to the new environment and then it wouldn't be that bad.
Take care
Cheers!

Apart from quitting the job eventually everything balanced each other & i am glad you realized couple of handy things which could be pivotal whilst making decisions in future.

desperado said...
