This is how I imagine myself in coming years -Juggling between different priorities in life and trying to keep the famous smile going. How will I be able to dedicate time and energy for myself, my hobbies and interests?

Flashback

When I picked-up G from air-port yesterday, it reminded me of day I arrived in US. All dressed up in suit, overjoyed about being in US and talking with excitement about offshore.
Then I thought about trip back from vacation. Dressed like a junkie and hoping for a blunder at immigration which will send me back.
1 year changed me completely.

Comments

Comments that irritate me and at the same time make me think why people use them.

• बहोत खुश दिख रहा है !
• आज कल बहोत बिझी है. दिखता नही है !
• तुम तो बडे लोग बन गए !
• विसर्लास तू आम्हाला ! फ़ोन नाही बरेच दिवसात.

Song for my Break-up

I forgot more than you'll ever know about her.

You think you know the smile on her lips
The thrill and the touch of her fingertips
But I forgot more than you'll ever know about her.

You think you'll find a heaven of bliss
In each caress, in each tender kiss
But I forgot more than you'll ever know about her.

You stole her love from me one day
You didn't care, oh, it hurt me
But you can never steal away memories of what used to be.

You think she's yours, to have and to hold
Someday you'll learn, when her love grows cold
But I forgot more than you'll ever know about her.

(Great song by Bob Dylan, one of my favourites)

Dialogue from Govinda movie

सारे शेहर मे मेरी चर्चा हो, इस से अच्छा है थोडा खर्चा हो।

माझिया मना

माझिया मना ज़रा थांब ना,
धावणे तुझे अन् मला वेदना!

(Trying to translate - My mind, please stop for a while. I have to suffer because of your wandering.)

Stuck in the middle

Why do I have to always make a choice between two groups I like to hang out with but they don't want to hang out with each other. Over the years, I have made some choice and wasted enormous amount of time thinking over it. It happened in family, with friends and at work. How different my world would be if I had powers to make peace between them and be together.

Can't help mentioning this dialogue from Spider man.
Green Goblin: Spider Man. This is why only fools are heroes… because you never know when some lunatic will come along with a sadistic choice. Let die the woman you love... or suffer the little children. Make your choice, Spider Man, and see how a hero is rewarded.

Speech by Steve Jobs

I had read the text version of this speech. But it is more effective when you hear the Stevenotes.

Song for my Girl

You,

Doin' that thing you do,

Breaking my heart into a million pieces,

Like you always do And you,

Don't mean to be cruel,

You never even knew about the heartache,

I've been going through

Well I try and try to forget you girl,

But it's just so hard to do,

Every time you do that thing you do.

I,

Know all the games you play,

And I'm gonna find a way to let you know that,

You'll be mine someday 'Cause we,

Could be happy can't you see,

If you'd only let me be the one to hold you,

And keep you here with me

'Cause I try and try to forget you girl,

But it's just so hard to do,

Every time you do that thing you do

I,

don't ask a lot girl,

But I know one thing's for sure,

It's the love I haven't got girl,

And I just can't take it anymore

'Cause we,

Could be happy can't you see,

If you'd only let me be the one to hold you,

And keep you here with me

Cause it hurts me so just to see you go,

Around with someone new,

And if I know you you're doin' that thing,

Every day just doin' that thing,

I can't take you doing that thing you do

Spidey - 3

Revenge is like a poison. It could really take us over. Before you know, it could turn you into something ugly.

I had never thought that I would experience this within 1 hour of watching the movie. Spidey continues to fascinate me.

Funda # २ by Calvin n Hobbes

Calvin: Here I am! Waiting for the bus. Eleven more years of school to go. Then college, then maybe graduate school, and then I work until I die.
What kind of world is this? you only get 5 years to be a kid.
What about exploring and discovering and playing? Those things are important too!
Hobbes: Well... you still have afternoons and weekends.
Calvin: That's when I watch TV.

Funda # १ by Calvin n Hobbes

Calvin: I call this "Lookout" hill.

Hobbes: Yes, you can certainly see far from up here.

Calvin: I call it "lookout" hill because that's what you yell whenever we go down it. You know sometimes it seems things go by too quickly. We are so busy watching out for just what is ahead of us that we don't take the time to enjoy where we are. Days go by and we hardly notice them. Life becomes a blur. Often it takes a calamity to make us live in the present. Then suddenly we wake up and see all the mistakes we have made. But it's too late to change anything. It's like....It's like.....

Hobbes: It's like what?

Calvin: It's like Something...I just can't think of it.
