Confounded..


The day started in no different manner. But there was something missing, something my heart wanted to do..I really wanted to talk to someone, but I don't know why was I holding myself back today to talk to anyone..
With no other option, I started to do what I usually do when in these situations, listening to songs.
I landed up picking up 2 songs from a kannada film(..for a change) 'Mungaru Male' i.e. the title song and 'Anisuthide'. Both sung by Sonu Nigam and this film is a hit and heard that its one of the good films out of Kannada industry in recent times. I read the story today, concluded the same(or may be the person who wrote the blog, managed in a very impressive way).
After listening to the title song, I felt something different, my heart felt fullness with emotions(which I am unable to explain in words), kinda restlessness. I kept on listening to the songs for around 4-5 times, the music is good and very soothing.
This episode may depict my state of mind, but that altogether tells something which I hadn't been through before..

Cheers again!

hmm today we had a small party for our supposedly good work and good progress wrt few products, to be more precise for completion of a particular phase of couple of products. So the party was arranged in Mickey Finn's Brewery.
So all were set and my manager said in his own style before he making a move towards the venue, "move your butts guys.." :-) 4 of us from 2 teams made our way and reached in few minutes. As specified, its kind of a bar n restaurant. It was a decent place, crowded and bit small to what we had not expected. Afterall, all the teams were invited, so to our expectation it should have been a bigger one. But didn't know that the attendance would be less, Hence the right decision on the venue :)
Hmm immediately, seeing me the product manager came and greeted and said, 'This is for ppl like you all.., lets have fun'. I just replied smilingly, 'so are we here for' ;-)
He asked me to place an order for any of the drinks n snacks. He infact queried, 'Beer or something?' Hmm nice question to few... I told, 'yeah something would go i.e. Coke'. He immediately ordered for a pitcher of coke and beer. Beer for few Russians who came along with us. As many of us know, most Russians just enjoy vodka and beer.
We saw few known faces and few nice few nice faces around;-). I saw my manager sitting on a chair sharing few thoughts with couple of them. After few minutes of waiting, coke and beer was places in front of us in a table. Everybody started to serve themselves, given 2 options to me now, I thought of trying the thing (which you are thinking of in your mind), which I hadn't tried before. I finally took a glass of beer in my hand to few of my frnds surprise, since they knew that I don't(till then:)). I would have the complete glass without any deteriorating my senses:) for some considerable time though. My one friend who boozes quite often asked me to continue for one more. I just said, 'Mujhe tho bas try karna tha ek baar, so karli' :)

That was the highlight abt the party!!


P.S: Its not the start of anything, as commented by someone in my previous blog;-)
