i just realised there are so many "Well"s in my previous post. Well, I am not sure why I have put so many "Well"s in my that post. But I wanna get rid of it. Well, so what do i do about that. hmmm... well lets see... no more "well"s now... wats happening to me... why each of my sentence is begining with the same crap "well". oh God help me... Well i know i will only have to do something about it. But i can't do anything about it. Well, but you can obviously. avoid reading those "well"s until I get a way to fix it.

Time to blog

Well, those days are back again… though lately… No more hitting CTRL+SPACE continuously. I know a java developer working on ECLIPSE IDE will definitely understand that… but for others… no more pounds of work. So that’s not the only thing that has come again.

No work and that came with a couple of milk chocolates. Well there was time I used to eat chocolates got on someone’s arrival from onsite. And today after a very loooooong time I got to eat them again.

Well, that’s not it. there is much to come. We have got Orkut access again in our office. Good that the operations’ guys have decided to remove the WebSense blockage.

So with that there are many other sites otherwise inaccessible, becoming easy to surf through. I know you understand what I mean.

And yes, how can I forrget this... getting up again at close to 11 in the morning... (huh? should i call it morning... well i guess so... for me, atleast, its morning)

And more of it… the thing I am rightly doing now… writing blog.

Well, may He keep this change for ever. Amen.

I wanna go home...

... but it’s raining outside... so I thought why not to write a blog. Though I can go home even if its raining… and it’s already too late, but the person with me is against it… and now that he has gone to ease himself, I am doing just what I had been thinking to do since more than 4 hours… write the blog and yes, my iTunes is awake again.

uh!!! I don't have any topic to write on, despite the fact that I had been thinking to write one since long… hmmm… well why not lets discuss the day that just flew away.

It had been a very very bad day, tiring and full of failures. There was no power when I realized mosquitoes buzzing into my ears continuously early in the morning. The day started with such a great negative energy that even that I reached office quite early, I had not been able to fix one problem till lunch. And impressingly, I haven’t done anything other than that.

Well the day was actually full of problems. Things which were running like Mercedes stopped working at all… and 4 person around me pointing it out, making me feel bad… finally one comes to me to console me and tells me “whatever u do, never attach your sentiments with it. Failures are bound to occur… just tell people you will fix it and things are fine again.” I seriously liked the idea.

And see what! at the end of day I am happy, smiling without any reasons(though my cell is completely discharged and i don't have a charger here at office) may be because of the small lesson I learnt today, but one thing is continuously distracting me… when will the rain stop?

Working late nights

Is this by wish or by compelling, but it is true, that I am working late nights. Doing things I want to do the last. All this time, I have stopped doing things I love, like watching movies, listening to songs(all day… There was time when you would have never found me without my earphones hanging from my ears.), going home early, talking to friends, sit in the cafeteria for really long-long time and many others.

I will really have to think hard to recollect when did I talk freely and talk all rubbish stuff with any of my friends. Its good that my friends haven’t realize that I had been working so much that I don’t even bother to click on the play button of the iTunes when I have my earphones tangled around my neck.

I remember once that I had been making fun of one of my friends for working so hard and that too just for peanuts. I had made such a big fuss outta it that his girlfriend literally didn’t talk to him for… to be true I don’t know really how long… but now I am in the same condition… spending hours at office, and not freaking out but working, though not for peanuts but just a little more than that.

The latest number by Justin Timberlake is actually true… “what goes around, goes around… comes round”.

For a change I tried to come to office a little early. I somehow managed to wake up at 6ish… got ready… and left from home at 8:35. But it didn’t make much of a difference, as I reached office at 9:15. Thanks to the traffic in Bangalore. Though I reached office a little before I generally come.

I had been thinking a lot, whether it is ‘cuz the drivers of the auto-rickshaws and the public buses are all uneducated, and don’t have traffic sense. Those huge buses will enter into the roads just enough to fit themselves, making a huge queue behind them. The auto-rickshaw drivers… my favorite topic of discussion. Auto-rickshaw driver are just what you say reverse sensed aliens on the road.

The general behavior when we take a turn is, we give indicator, look back and sideways and then turn… now the rick-driver’s way… turn, look back and sideways, and then finally peeking out their arm to show they had turned. I mean they do everything required but there is something called as a sequence… (same as when a mother asked a girl what does she wanna do when she grows old, and the girl replies, “I wanna become mother, become graduated, and get married.” The mother shockingly says, “do whatever you want to do but please do it in a proper sequence”)

Well, if I want I can talk and talk about the rick-guys… but that’s not the reason I decided to write a blog on the Bangalore traffic.

Today, I was just dazed to find out another reason for traffic problems. What I saw has changed my whole idea of taking things about being a professional.

When I reached at the first signal (actually a crossing controlled by a traffic police man), the opposite lane was moving. The motors on my side had to wait. I had to take a right turn, like most of them. I stopped my bike behind a vehicle just to the left of the yellow line(in India where the roads are very tight, there are no divider, just a yellow colored line, dividing the traffic flow.) within few vehicles, both four-wheelers and two-wheelers stopped to my right, crossing the yellow line. The result… the opposite moving lane stopped as the road got blocked… and my lane was anyhow not moving.

It took ten minutes for that mess to get cleared…On next signal(an actual traffic-light operated crossing), I had to again stop for the other lane was moving. But I saw a blinking light on the traffic signal, marking free left turn. I had to go straight. So I stopped between the left and right lane(in India there are very few roads with central-lane, as the width can accommodate only two.) I saw many people in the left still waiting. For a second I thought they are dumb not to go ahead as free turn but I realized it soon they didn’t have to take the left turn. But ‘cuz of ‘em those who had to go to left couldn’t go. I could see the frustrations on those poor fellas. But no use.

Well, I forgot to tell you that a couple of those standing at the left actually didn’t even intend to go straight but rather they wanted to take a right. I was completely freaked out. What is the need to stand in the left if you want to go right. There were many behind me, who could have crossed the signal, if those two drivers would have considered struggling through the crossing lane as a “Stupid Act”.

And yes, all those who have got this opportunity to have their mentions in my blog were all well-educated, with an odd of 7 to 9 were carrying laptops(a sign they were cultured), most of them were softie guys, and cent percent youth of “Buland Bharat”.

We are in an urge to grow the traffic sense on the road at least in these people. If we can’t follow, being refined, how do we expect outta those megamoth buses and those inverse-minded rick-drivers.
