About time I got this underway! Somebody told me that I should get online, “it’d be very very kooool”. Well then, here I ramble.

Truly speaking, I have been thinking about letting my fingers caress the keys long time ago. But then could never quite figure out why someone would want to go thru all the effort of first thinking all his thoughts again, picking out good words so that some unknown soul on the planet can visit your blog, laugh, get amused, comment go back to ….. (what were you thinking!!). God bless the Good Samaritan!!

Well, there’s a lot in the past which would make excellent reading. But laziness is god’s greatest virtue grant to mankind. Mama told me practice virtues. So, me good boy, shall let the past remain buried in the grey and white of my “brain” (this is precisely why the word oxymoron was coined!!).

Singapore

I am in Singapore atm. Koool, isn’t it?? That’s what everyone seems to be thinking and saying. More money, a really sexy place, no fight in life, eye candy on demand ( check my orkut about me section for this ;) ). But there’s another side to the story. It’s the basic rule of creation – everything is symmetrical and anti-thetical. Matter : Anti-matter, Good: Bad, Horror: Hope. Feel like the Illuminati (Dan Brown’s Angels & Demons).

Maybe it is the initial anxiousness speaking at the moment, but there have been considerable stretches of time when I’ve felt alone. Well, given that I am a social animal (vot says AB, Sid and Asin??), needless to say that these stretches put considerable strain on my already strained intellectual resources.

Is this the right decision. I miss so many people who are so precious to me. Mom, dad, Grandpa, my cousins. What’s the price I am paying. What’s the price my parents are paying. What happens to my personal life. No campus talk twice a day for hours as I used to in India, chat schedules have to be synchronized (I am gonna put a official calendar entry so that no one in office schedules a meeting then!!). devils do tend to brood and make themselves big when the mind is unoccupied :(.

Well, one thing that hasn’t changed is – Niki. She’s been with me through these 4 months and this transition as steadfastly as Gimli, Legolas with Aragorn. Not half of this would have been possible if my consultant wouldn’t have been there. Owe you big time, you've been a real sweetheart.

Guess my blog’s now starting to read like one of these technical papers on IEEE 812A.v02.x protocol or some management guru’s paper on the autocorrelation coefficient between condom sales and a country’s GDP ;). Point being, enough verbal diarrhea for a first post!! Think I have blabbered long enough and boring enough.

Till I fall into the vice again!
