Life In Slow Motion

It's been a week minus any highs or lows; a straight line sort of. Except that I finally watched The Dark Knight Rises! (It blew my mind. But that's a different story.)

And not to forget the fact that I couldn't wish V for his birthday at 12 o'clock for I was busy enjoying the movie. Which could have been a pretty serious affair had he not been pretty high himself! So we both ended up saying sorry to each other later; me for wishing him late, he for being high. (Don't we complement each other! Meh! )

Other than these, there's nothing worth mentioning. That's how un-happening and slow my life is! But I am not complaining. Slow is good. Slow is fine for me. 

Sweet Child O' Mine

Touch wood. Before I even begin. For I am the worrying sort. ( I attribute this to my mother. She passed on her "worrying" genes to me.)
So touch wood again. And let me begin.

In less than two-months time, I will become the proud aunt of a baby girl/boy. For my sister is expecting her first child in the beginning of September.
And I am super-excited, to say the least.
I can't wait for it to come to this world. I am dying to hold that little thing in my arms and rock him/her to sleep. Promise to love and protect him/her forever.

I haven't asked my sister whether it's a boy or a girl. But I am a little partial towards girls and have been secretly wishing for a niece. But a nephew will be just as good.
She will be my little angel. He can be my little rascal. :)

The Week That Was

It's been a pretty eventful week. Of the not-so-good type.

Monday: I almost hit the exit button from my firm. Because I thought I had had enough of that asshole of a manager.
A meeting with him spoiled my entire day and night. And the next day too. For it was the reason behind a bad incident the next day. (Read on.)

Tuesday: I got into a pretty bad spot because of a "momentary lapse of reason". Was talking to a colleague during a meeting with the region head of our firm. (Was bitching about above mentioned manager and his asshole-ness of the day before.) And the glorified clerk/PA (read: HR lady) saw that I was talking and complained to my managers and I pretty much got a bad tongue-lashing from them.
I was almost certain I was getting fired! That's what I thought. Until I talked to my friends and they assured me no one gets fired for stuff like that. But still I couldn't sleep the whole night that day.
(I don't wanna get fired. I wanna resign. You see. )


Wednesday: After a bad two days, Wednesday was better. And I had a chat with one of the managers who told me that the event of the day earlier can be forgotten and that it was "water under the bridge". Relieved. But I got a bit emotional. It must have showed on my face and he must have noticed. Crap.

Thursday, Friday and Saturday have been incident-free. (Thank God!)

Sunday : As I write this post, I am also chatting with my college crush, the one guy I totally adored and looked up to and who also happened to break my heart into pieces.
We had a bad fight back in 2009 and we have cleared things out since then. But our relationship,or whatever was left of it, has always been strained.
But in spite of everything, I can never hate him. That's how I am.
And by the way, he still remembered my pet name. Not bad huh.

And that's pretty much how my week has been. The better part of Sunday remains though. Lets hope nothing terrible happens. And with that, I thee sign off.

Welcome To My World

In the words of John Denver, "Some days are diamonds. Some days are stones."

Indeed. Right?

You know how some days are good. And some bad. Some days we smile. And some days we cry. Some days we dance.  Some days we just wanna give up.

Everyday is not special. Some days we question our existence. Why am I here? we ask.
But life goes on each day. We hang on. We survive.
Everyday we live, come rain or come shine.

And as I go through my own not-so-extraordinary life, trying to find a place in the world, I have decided to create my own turf here and write my way through life.
I will write about the good days and the bad. About the people I meet and the ones I love. I will write about life. About pain and hurt. I will write about the world. I will write about me.

This is where my thoughts and feelings will come alive. This will be my life in words.

Welcome to my world!
