Krypton

Today was mostly a free day in the sense that i did not have much work to do. though i had to sit there..but literally..my mind was off to day dreaming. Well..the professor also pointed that out and asked me to come back from whatever planet i was in...a smile by me and again i as off on that same planet..some friend from the back also pointed it out ' krypton'..ok that was fine. The classes are just anything but interesting..had it not been for attendence i would have never ever gone there in the first place.....why only me..there are 36 peeps around here except 4-5 guys nobody is going top come for sure....and the 4-5 peeps i am talking about are just such jerks..!!! i am not going to elaborate it very much..or i would start blathering all sort of things!! so the lunch could not be called good..i could eat little.....so after that we were asked how it was....so all of us were like.." yesterdy it was very bad.....today it was just bad"...the coordinator just assured us n said sorry....i am sure the ppl there would have got a big bash from him!!! then we were off for some software classes....i was busy writing mails and talking to friends...i did not hear anything the teacher said or told....friends later on told me what all he had said....wow!! thats what friends are for. Ok...i also found out yesterday that one of my colleagues here ...she and i were in the same school.....though at that time we did not know each other......way back when i was in 4th 5th grade....but it always good to have someone from the same school...when i talk of schooll.lot of things come to my mind..all the good friends....good times they were..i could literally write a book on it!!though i also think no1 wud be interested to read it!! but i think the school days i had were by far the best days of my life.........i just crave for that kind of friends and freedom now!! I ws such a jerk in school...teachers always loved me because they thought i was such a good boy......i dont know why!! this has been a problem for me...yes a problem!!..that whoever sees just assumes so much about me......i mean all good things~~but i get very uncomfortable with that because then i cant do things i would usually do...well but i have enjoyed all this ..yes i am pretty much unsatisfied with what i am now....and that is what really would drive me to success.

Good bargain

SO on monday tuesday i didnt write. I was just so busy that i couldnt get time. But these days were pretty good. Monday was a good day because we had a very good n funny lecture session....a very good n interesting person came to give us lectures on an very uninteresting topic of rural banking......but he sure made it very interesting. Had it been some the other guy..gooddd~~~ he wud have sound it like anything!!! OK tuesday.....tuesday was a very very busy day. We had to go to a new place for classes.......and the classes weer conducted through video conferencing..........the lady who was there to teach us on i-banking........was there to answer our queries...sure me n friends had many....but to her...she was like."let me make it very clear..that i am not going to answer irrelevant questions"......well..whatever....not a good session...and moreover nobody was listening to her..everybody was busy chatting n singin n laughing.....someimporatnt things also i came to know there. like in our company we would be having performance appraisal every 6 months or so..our boss would rate us 1 to 5.

1---means u are super excellent..u exceed expectations..set benchmarks...then 2 3 4 follow

5---you are below expectations ..n then you are out of the company..

one of my friends didnt understand it properly....n he was telling everybody that if u get a 1 ...you will be thrown out.,....so try for 5.....ok..i mended him.

then in the evening we were called for a HR session with the company..we had to move again to a new place....there..there..there...i was in the office for the first time.

OOh.....everybody was so busy..i cud make it out from their poor poor faces...infact started dreaming how i would look like sitting between them. Everybody was very formal and decent with us....flaunting a formal smile...( like in every bank you go...thers a friendly smile)..even if peope dont want to smile..they have to...no! you HAVE TO SMILE>>>damn !!..smiles look lot ugly when faked...but who cares....keep smiling...so then we had all our other formalities for joining n everything....lot of forms to be filled....what all was not there!!! but ok...somehow it all finished by 10.30 pm...first day i came to realize the 9 to 9 schedule!! just a taste of what is to come.....but the office was very beautiful....good place to work in i suppose. I have to move to mumbai at the central processing centre....it would be lot more busier i suppose..the building there looks magnificent from outside..inside also it shud be good...that ws all for the two days. Today again was a newplace....new places everyday..actually from today we are learning some softwares related to banking.....so its much much more interesting than sitting in classes listening to boring lectures!!! a nice person to teach us today....intersting it was. In the evening...i went alongwith friends to a place called NEW MARKET..pefect place to buy things a much cheaper price..lot of bargains..you can buy more for less.......though i cudnt find myself anything intersting. While coming back..i just loked for some books in a roadside book stall......i saw this book of hillary clinton....."living history"...i had aheard abt it..never read.....so i bought it from that man....at a price...which is 1/5th of the original price...wow!!! i was pretty happy....people may say i help piracy...but ..but ..but....guys..i dont have a hell lot of money...so if i get something cheaper..shudnt i get it!! and what satisfaction i get??.0000..that i was able to buy a good book at a good price....that would make reading more n more intersting...haha

pretty much for today i supppose......

Tip: If you dont get books at interesting prices over your place..... i can help....i can give you the address from where i got them!!..no really..they were very cheapp..unbelieveably....original versions too!!

bad movie..i wasted my money!!!

ok. so today is saturday..actually today here its supposed to be a holiday..we were supposed to to be free..but these guys really suck!! They told us we cant have the day free and that we would have to come for classes..damn!! so....it was just the pretty same etuff. There was a small presentation to be givn...one other of my friends gave it. I was pretty off today ..this cold isnt really letting me do anything...so pretty much of a ' nothing really important today' kind of day.There are certain days when u just dont do anything. You dont think..you dont talk....days when you sitjust like a dumb ass. Well..in the evening i went to a movie alongwith some of my other friends. " BEOWULF"i was pretty excited to see this..it released yesterday..and how bad it was!!! Really..it wasnt good...i didnt quite enjoy.Well....ok..what if you could see an near real animated Angelina Jolie naked..that really wasnt enough!! or for that matter even the old gruffyanthony hopkins was just throwing off his drapes!!..haha. So, nothing really nice in the movieexcept that the animation was nice..i would say the animation was one of the best..if not the best.Had it not been animated..it would have been a disaster. SInce it was animated with some special effects'andjolie....i somehow sat in the theatre. SO..i am just back and tonight i dont really intend to do anything..so i am just continuing my day....nothing to do today. My roommate is off to some silly rock idol contest...guess when he comes back i would have to hearsome of his stories also.!!! boy....he sucks at times,..even he would be thinking same about me. Actually we both had planned to go together..but in the end..i just refused...i thought it to be really ..they arent even proper street bands...so i am not betting my weekend on these punks...hey..but they might be good too...talking abou tmy weekend..it finishes before it starts. SUNDAY IS Like..i wouldnt even know when it got over!!!

i cant think of any heading!!!!

Yesterday, there was a bit of a problem here in kolkata yesterday. Some protests were going on..it turned voilent...people burnt vehicles.....some people got injured.....army was called...and dont know what else happened!!! No time for talking all this. In the morning it was fine...very fine. But i did see a lot of policemen standing out there..the taxi driver uttered something..i dint hear it. I thought it to be some routine traffic police thing!! So i reached there....classes started..i also started studyi...(oops..sleeping actually!!). IN the afternoon....somebody told there was somrthing going on....i just made sure our sir came to know of this..so i told him..but he was pretty calm..and told us its ok..and they will leave us at normal time. Somehow we were free by 4. The ride back home was quite a feat. Few taxis..so we had to catch the metro...we reached safe and sound...haha. The whole night i kept praying and thinking that ..godd!! please somehow tomorrow give me a holiday..somehow..i got something..i got cold with fever in free. In the morning i came to know we will have to go, first i thought i should not go..coz i was feeling really sick..all that headache....but then i felt that it wouldnt be a good idea to bunk....more so beacuse i am always afraid of that..that what will happen if i get caught or whatever!!! but rest there are many people who dont come...nobody notices that they are not there or they have left in between the classes.....But anyhow i went today..promising myself that soon i will bunk..atleast once...haha. SO in the afternoon after lunch i got really sick and i came back alongwith koireng....i dint tell sir..i dont he'll notice..i am not such a great student of his that he'll remember me. But he remembers every girl of the class by face, by name....and hes like ..hey, anybody absent?....no sir!!! wheres smita ( a girl we hv in our batch)..or ..wheres preeti( another girl),....haha. Hes funny...hes nice....good person..i admire him..though when hes teaching it gets a little bore. But the main thing is that the second half today i got free....whoa..it feels so good to be free......!! Sometimes a change is erally needed...i am not letting myself be glued to a schedule...that is going to make everything very boring...some surprise you need to throw upto yourselves sometimes. Or, life can be very very monotonous and unrewarding. Another thing....i learnt...too much sincerety is bad too.....thers another thing i am glad about......i talked to aliyah( a bit ..only a bit )....but i did....she said she was waiting for me.....damn!! i wish it wud hv been a holiday..more time i would have got then..but okok..its ok. Its ok.....she told me that may be i should have water therapy...( i dint take bath today just for the fear that my cold may get worse.....dont tell anyone)....can drinking lot of water help me out with my cold....lets try it.....ppl...
I still have cold. Another thing i need to mention...well here at this cyber cafe..thers an outlet for coffee...do i thought of having coffe..went out and asked for an espresso..he asked..single or double( what is that??)..i said single....then he asked some things i dint know....i kept sayin gyes no yes no...this n that. FInally he took lot 40 rs. and gave me the coffee..took some time to make it....I got inside to my computer..took a sip of that...and....aaarghhh.....what was that!!!! italian coffee!!!!..i wud get better outside with 5 times lesser rate...i m not able to drink it anymore..its till infront of me....in a small cup on a tray with a napkin.....what the hell !!!..i am thinking of going out and throwing it all over the face of that idiot who made us....but then ..they would throw me out..i cant do that!! :-<< bad coffee.....bad coffee......its black....no sugar ..and so so sour!!! seems i have eaten some insects.even i m sure that wud taste better...hey italianos....take tht out of your menu....shit coffee it shud be called

All hot girls put your hands up and say.....OM SHANTI OM>>>

Hey girls....no..u can put your hands down now!!!!
Actually this was a song from a movie i saw today....haha
After such a long long time..i was able to enjoy!! wow...it was a great day. I made everything out of it. Well...our project finished today...the presentation was made..it was good. And it was also good to hear from some that i really did good. But..i think it could have been better....atleast a bit. May be bihari shudnt have burst out laughing!!!well..thats nothing to think about. Ok..so after coming back we made plans to go to a movie..i was thinking not to go..but in the end my friends persuaded to come with them. and i am really really happy that i went on with them. It was a pefect movie i saw at a perfect time. I enjoyed it..a lottt. For the last few days i had been very unhappy..pretty unsatisified with everything. All i had was a typically boring schedule...Good that i had a change. Thanks to omse good friends in my life..who advice me the right thingat the right time. The most important thing is that you should not run for anything. Its importantto enjoy and at the same time getting along with everyday life. Wow....i feel pretty good now.

Making a Mark???

It was a particularly pleasent say. One of the reasons was that i didnt have to sit there back for the whole day and the other thingwas that we were let free by 3. Its was a saturday but some working for my project kept me off for the whole day. Though i am still stuck in these everyday matters of working...getting some free time and i still get time to think hard about the future of my hopes..dreams ..aspirations. The last night..i spent all the time thinking about it.Think think think..is that all i can do....i am feeling really out of place in this present job which is my first one.I am supposed to be enjoying this and showing interest. Buti cant..i cant do it. One of the reasons is that i am being very impatientand really worried or lets say anxious about my future. But as they say..there is no shortcut to success..i think i believe in this. But then i am a very simple human and i wish..i just wish that somehow if i could fast forward my life into the next five years...but that is not possible.I was just thinking about a book i had read few years back..The Alchemist, by Paulo Coelho. I can readthat book any number of times. One of the reasons is that whenever i read it..i am able to find an insight into myself and i am able to look to things in a different way. Its a nice book and i would quote Coelho--
Often the most simple things in life are the most extraordinary, but only the wise have the ability to understand them.
One of the other persons that have inspired me is Edmund Hillary and going through his biography was a parrticularly interesting and inspiring thing. Its named " Nothing venture, Nothing Win"I like one of his quotes where he goes on to say about himself "Being a kid whenever i heard about some person doing something different...it was uncomprehendible to me..and i always maintained that they were persons of extraordinary strength and belief...which i ..as a normal being would never be able to achieve"There are a lot of people around us from whim we can find inspiration still we are in the look out for persons and places to reinvent ourselves.
One of the biggest problems..for me as i see it now.is to make my mark and my own space in this new organisation. How far i would be able to go..i would never know.But then going out there and giving it your best shot is what really matters. Day before yesterday i saw a person lying there on mthe middle of the road..nobody to see if he is alive or dead!! hundreds of people pass by//( i was one of them).....so i dont reallyhave any right to say anything. But it made me really sad. may be someday i would something for the cause of nature. But first....i have to be that somebody.and that someday .....when ..i think again?

The new Hotel

Hey friends.....well it was kind of very average day. Nothing in particular except the fact that our place of training was shifted from the IFBI centre to one of the salt lake city hotels( The Stadel)...its in one of those stadiums in Kolkata..pretty beautiful.. A better place then the one we had here. But its really tiring coz its an hour ride upto there and then after coming back too..it takes the same..infact a bit more!! thers just so much traffic out there.

One of our instructors got injured..(too bad..more so because the one who has replaced him is all things but nice !!)...so thats something for a change. not a very good one though!! its already 10..i have got loads of home assignments to complete and that tells me something about the time to come. I have stil not joined in my new job and its getting on top of my head!! I dont really like kolkata..i mean its a nice city ..but may be because i am not used to have such a busy life....life is so different after getting out of college..i never really thought its going to be this much busy. I have absolutely no qualms that i am in for a big change..how i am going to fare in all this..i dont know.....i still have a very very frivolous attitude towards things which i need to give up in the bear future...very near.....goddd...i can feel a lot now....hey one thing....The lunch there at the hotel was too good....but i cudnt eat much with all those formalities yarr!!!...haha......i have to do a lot tonight..i gotto do a project too....my group members are nice but we have hardly done nething till now....i'll have to catch up soon.

What a Day

Hey..well..quite a few days have passed since i joined..went on to have my traning. What training yarr...its a creepy fuss about interest and all that banking craziness..well, i guess i need not sya it crazy or whatever coz thats what i am required to do for a long time. We got our offer letters..which gives me a feeling that now i am an employed person. Nothing much unusual on training days excluding that fact that it was a bad say for me( everybody got a bad day once in a while)..well...sir ws teaching something..i ws busy reading my offer letter..so after tht somthing was srapped upon the board and i just went on to ask what it was..well.....it had all been explained by him.....and it was too silly for me to ask it...so.he kinda got angry..but i made such a poor face that he wud hv thought' o ! i scared the kid !!'....but he told me that i ws day-dreaming..he ws good enough to throw in a joke..n aftr tht the whole day he was asking me " uundersttood?'..' tell me what is tht'......but nways...hes nice 2 me n every1 else...k..we had lunch( boring sort of..cudnt eat much)....so then we had a sesion in the computer room...where i found out that what we had to upon ..( i mean our working platform...was Microsoft EXCEL)..damn!!!.....friends are working upon things like SAP or C or JAVA>..n me...okok..who cares snice i get the big bucks!!)..haha....so we came back but since i had a badday..something else ws to happen to....so it did...i tripped over the stairs..not finished ...not finished..my hotel room got locked from the outside..the keys were inside...n i ws out...i cudnt get in!!!...the hotel ppl sorted tht out..i dint go anywhere else tht day..who knows..whats next for me!!! WHAT A DAY..hahaha...so we have holidays for the next 3 days..deewali is over....it was the sadest n the most boring i had ever ..ever in my life....!!!...i dont want to rememebr about that n so i wont write about it......well..thats it..had a good sleep last night...lets see wht i do today..nopes...no plans yet!!!!

The very first day

Thers nothing very special that happened today. Since i have got a one month training for now...so we had to get there at 9.00 I was there much before alnogwith two of my very nice friends( they arranged for my accomodation too)..thank you guys!! bihari( hes nt from from bihar but hes bihari) n koireng( korr..he thinks hes a rockstar..short one though)..
