School Days

Yesterday morning one of my friends called me suddenly.. He was passing through Singapore and was on his way to LA. He was my class mate...Suddenly those days at School came to my mind. It was so good...No tension no worries...I still remember those excursion days when we all used to go together for a day and how i used to wait for that day to come...

Then my 4 years of engineering was so wonderfull that i think those were the best part of my life. Those 4 years was the time i really enjoyed life...It was a wonderfully new experience with infactuations, soft corners, friends, smokes, drinks....And that was the time when i got my first vehicle. An Yamaha. Which i still keep in India. I remember how crazy i was with that bike..It was such a wonderfull bike and i remember those days when i used to take it to college.. And then came that person whom i cherished the most at that time and who cherished me also eventhough we are now good friends...When i think abt those days i feel i could have been a bit more nice person but you can never relive those days.. Those were really immature days....I know these days wont come again and its better to forget those wonderfull days and move forward...
I think a person should always look ahead and rather than thinking about those lost days....May be after 10 years i might be mentioning these days at Shell as one among the most memorable periods in my life...Who knows...

But when this friend called me ytdy from the airport i suddenly realised with sadness that he was the last person left at my home place, among those who studied with me.....Now even if i go back there is no one at my place . All are at different places and the sad part is that i dont know wether i will be able to see these guys again as the chances of we all coming together to india are very very slim.. What a life !!! where u cant even fullfill your basic desires of being with your friends...Sometimes i think i would have got a better life in india where i would be more happy but with lot less money that wht i have now..but who needs money when ur away from your near and dear.. :-) but i still need money:-)

It truly makes me go mad sometimes.....

Alive and Kicking+ CO2 Emission trading

Its been some time since i updated my blog..No specific reasons for it instead didnt feel like writing and there wasnt much to write also.....

After 3 months when i look back there has been lot of changes and things happening in my life.... Went to India during "ONAM"...This vacation was really good in the sense that i got about 3 weeks straight and could go to lot of temples in south India. A really fruitful vacation..It was a bliss considering the fact that i was in a world where there were no trading or operations...No Oil men around , greedy of making money..

Now i am back and on the desk and after 2 good (profitable) hurricanes in US and good 3rd quarter closing we are looking in good shape..Hope the year will close with fat + on our trading book..On trading side lot of things happening with the whole of AG-Japan ref trading team moving down to Singapore ...This has made the book go bigger . Now we have a dedicated risk analyst and we have also started playing straight in WTI/Brent and FEI markets..Really exciting.......

On personal front i have started my CFA...After thinking for long i decided to go for it..Dont know whether i can make it with so little time remaining for the december exam but anyways decided to give it a try. Got to go now ...Will try to blog in later today or tomorrow....Subject : Carbondioxide Emission trading....Exciting isn't it....?? Wait for it!!!!!
