Rakhi- A Social Problem

Well yesterday was rakhi in india and old memories came rushing into my mind...for all the four years in my engg college, this was the only day , each year, that i completely skipped the campus..eventhough i used to have attendance shortages because of skipping the classes through out my four years of study , i used to make sure that i stay in campus as i used to love campus life with friends.....But on rakhi day, me and my friends used to make sure that we dont even come to college vicinity as if we come there,on that day then there is no use coming to campus after that...as almost all the girls are sure to tie rakhi on our hands and that will be a big embarassement for me.....specially..
In that sense i honestly think rakhi should be banned in public places and it should be confined only to homes and to between those who are genetic siblings....As a person who has seen my friends passing thru the trauma of getting tied to a rakhi at campus, i strongly urge everyone reading this blog to support me in "BANNING RAKHI"....atleast in campus and work places.

fortunately noone except my cute little sister has tied rakhi on me...or rather i havent allowed anyone else to tie it on me...Well espicially my class mates in my engg college....:-)

Yesterday i took a bold decision to reduce my weight...and so took a resolution to go for swimming for the next 30 days...and went yesterday for swimming ,with all vigour...The result? now i cant move my legs and my whole body is paining and i drank about 3 to 4 litres of water in the pool.. @#$@ . So i might revoke my resolution .....

Thats all for today...waitin for my friend to return from india...well forgot to wish u all people a VERY MANY HAPPY ONAM..I am now feeling proud of being a mallu....

Nice Day!!!!!

50's

hi guys me back again after almost a week of hiatus..well nothin special in here..but the last whole week was full of fun..lot of learning at the office..learned a lot of stuff regarding trading and brokering..from the way it is going i think i will be mostly overseeing the Indian as well as Middleeast Oil market...seems to be fun..
Last friday we had the orientation party thrown to us by all the traders and brokers of the firm. It was a night full of booze and party. first we all went to excellsior hotel , which is famous for its pool game and girls. we played pool for like 1 hour and then played the game of dies. The game is played in such a way that the guy who looses in each round has to drink one full glass of whiskey.Man it was somethign.drank drank and drank until i couldnt stand properly. after the game we all went to have korean style dinner and another round of drinking. the korean style is such that if someone in ur table offers u a drink u have to accept it however bad condition u r in. Again got fully boozed there.. the last stop was at the famous "50's" the famous pub of s'gpore... We all were given one girl as well as drinks to "play" with..By the time i reached 50's i could no longer stand on my feet. and finally came home by about 3 in the morning and a nice sleep....saturday and sunday was fully spend at the airport. my friends were coming from US , another one going to US and another going to India. In short most of the time was spend at the airport specially saturday and sunday evenings...

nothin special happening here. as of the moment i am enjoying my work ...lets see how much pressure i can stand as the market is really bearish now .. and bearish market means more tension and pressure....
