a memoir of etchings and wanderings
I fear I am becoming faint-hearted. I find myself becoming increasingly affected by my surroundings, to the effect that I no longer feel happy. I am forced to drag myself around unwillingly, to work, around people, other places every single day. Change has always been something I have been terrified of. It scares me to even imagine uprooting myself from the current proximity, letting go of the few who I … Continue reading “Cowardice” →
I am in all honesty, one of the most stupid people who exist on planet earth. I believe in people and trust them to levels wherein they can hurt me deeply.I refuse to lose hope, until all energy is drained out of me.I refuse to confront, and it is understood as I am incapable of a retort.I cannot ‘draw a line’ between frienship and professionalismNot matter how much I try, … Continue reading “Stupid” →
Today, it has been a year. In this city. At this job. With these people.
It all began with a phone call and an extended Good Friday vacation which I had presumed I would be spending on my own in the onset of summers. I had been complaining for a while of my lack of travel ever since I had moved to Gurgaon, not very far away from completing a year now. Not that opportunity did not come my way, but somehow none of them … Continue reading “The Good Friday Weekend!” →
A post I came across and had to share. Couldnt be a more precise reflection of my thoughts and that of several around me. Not to forget to mention my affinity with the title of the post. “I work at a shit agency(aka firm).The client treats us as shit.My work timings are shit.We do shitty work.Management is shit.The pay is shit.It’s in a shitty neighborhood.Our new business record is shit.It’s … Continue reading “Shit” →
Been tripping on ‘Just Say Yes’ by Snow Patrol, ever since I stumbled across it today! Makes me strangely optimistic, not to forget the lights in the video which gives me a feeling of swimming underwater! Here’s to April, my most favourite month – hoping that I’ll be the ‘Yes-Woman’ 🙂
It is just like turning the pages of a calendar, a kind of stone we step across, a chapter of the book we’re done with reading.Welcome to the philosophy of moving on. It is rather prevalent here, in this corporate jungle. New people pouring in and some of the older ones silently getting off the bus – it is all a part of what is better known as ‘life’. Almost … Continue reading “Pawwky” →
The qualifying match between India and Pakistan must be the most discussed topic in traditional as well as social media over the past week and especially through yesterday! And what a match it was! Age old political differences and all kinds of mixed emotions rolled into one game where pressures were mounting every second. Mohali was the place to be yesterday, but those of us who were watching the big … Continue reading “A Game of Cricket” →
March has been the most active month on the calendar from work point of view! Huge amount of client activity and was also part of the team organising the largest media conference in the first quarter of 2011! It has all been hush and crazy in terms of the amount of work, but guess being employed with one of the largest international Public Relations consultancies gives you these opportunities. Although … Continue reading “B-M-W” →
There have been so many days when I have sat and stared at the ‘New Post’ page, felt a flush of things I would like to let out, and ended up not being able to write anything. However, things are rather morose and have been looking down, through the past few weeks. Highlights: I missed yet another trip to the Taj Mahal I have yet again, been rendered homeless I … Continue reading “Sinking” →
