Lived thru the night!!!

Me & Sid have concluded that the only way we can see the Chennai sunrise is by sitting thru the night, practically no other way in which we can ever watch the natural beauty of the rising sun. Planning to go swimming, not sure if its going to materialise, hope it does. No other interesting thing happening. Will have something more interesting to write about the next time around!

#*-=>(TO-DO)<=-*#

Come to think of what, was a Bz day -> a day in which u r doing a lot of things or one in which u do the same thing for a long period of time. If ud chosen the former then ave had a real bz day. Just b4 crashing early mornin I suddenly get up & ask my roomie for a writing instrument which in a way trigerred his curiosity since neither the scenario nor the lead up to my action had anything to suggest that I'd need anything close to a writing instrument -> curiosity killed the proverbial cat named tariq & he asked me of as to what I need to write -> poem or something -> I was like no baap, loto things to do so thought y not jot it down.
Things that I had to execute:
1) Pay my mobile bill (My provider has vowed to bankrupt me -> roaming & GPRS so I wont blame them completely),
2) To pay my credit card bill -> ave been upgraded to the GOLD card category,
3) Choose courses -> things r slightly out of hand on this front,
4) Clear my library account -> some1 seemz to've borrowed a book on my account a month ago & forgot to return it,
5) Return a favour.
Its almost sevenish in the evening & ave taken care of 3 of the 5 entries so needless 2 say 2 more to go, hopefully wud be thru by the end of the day.
1 other thing I wanted to do for the day was 2 write a post, ave done this as well, so am not doing that bad!!!

March 13 => Day 1 => Blog 2 !

The day was one of those days when the wanderlust in me was to say the least alive!
The day, which started on a relatively static note came right at me by mid afternoon ->
Picked my brother at my grand-maz place :-
1) Ohri's (The 1 b'side Liberty plaza) => Silver Metro => 2 Large B
2) Mocha (B-hills) => Sheesha
3) 10 Dowing Street => 2 Large B
4) Touch => 1 Large B
5) Bottles & Chimneys => 3 Large B
6) ITC Sheraton Kakatiya Towers => Complimentary meal for 4 => This was as they say like icing on the cake & maybe with a couple of cherries => Gods (The God of Booze maybe) for some reason wanted to save us some money so he sent an insect to carry on his orders, the insect which he sent was crawling near one of our plates & we go full throttle at the waiter then the manager which meant we get everything we wanted and probably more for nothing.
Real happening day.
B -> BACARDI!

March 13 => Day 1 => Blog 1 !

Was outo cash so wen to the ATM only to hear the security guy say "money problem" (I figured out a good 5 minutes later that he meant server was down), tried withdrawing from another bankz ATM :-
Protocol ->
1)Insert card,
2)Enter pin,
3)Enter account type, amount, receipt requirement,
4)Teller comes alive with a thud and starts counting (must admit it worked real hard considering the fact that all I wanted was 500 bucks it counted for a good half a minute & true to its age maybe it lost its flair),
5)Get a receipt but no cash, the receipt reads -> Ur bank aint responding.
Go to a third bankz ATM :- Repeat steps 1) through 5.
Tariq informs that I can actually go ahead and sue the bank, not a bad thing to do.
Bye Bye CHENNAI at 1:30,
Hallooo HYDERABAD at 2:40.
Got home in an auto who actually offered to activate the meter (to my utter surprise, but I was immediately reminded of what Archer says in HONOR AMONG THIEVES => never a trust a person who does'nt bargain), reach home & the guy b'comz all emo n touchy sayin "pyaar se 100 de do saab" wen the damn meter reads 35 => paid 60 => FAIR E'NUF.

The interviewer in me!

I seem to have discovered a new facet of my character, that facet which likes interviewing people & whats more I seem to have in me the requisite arsenal to deploy during any kind of interview be it a stress one or a cooperative one or for that matter even a "take the clue" kind of thing. Why do I make such tall claims for the plain reason that ave interviewed 3 different in 3 different styles and not to forget with 3 compliments as feedback => Insightful, Information seeking, Innovative. Not bad for a first timer I thought but retrospection delighted me even more, I was actually curt even with a guy who was 20 years older than me at the same time did not displease him and in one other instant managed to be damn serious with a gentleman who has I have virtually lived with for a month or so (am especially proud of this primarily b'coz the guy did not counter react to it but to the contrary got more focussed).
I started thinking of as to what traits or qualities a good interviewer ought to possess =>
I) Confidence,
II) Logical & analytical ability,
III) A decent understanding of psychology,
IV) Communication skills,
V) Indepth understanding of the requirements,
VI) Ability to gauge, labyrinthine & command some1z neural structure,
VII) Insightful understanding of words & ability to "hear between the lines" will do no harm,
VIII) Being charismatic will help u in grabbing and holding attention for long,
IX) Ability to work in teams (u r in a way teaming up with the interviewee to draw a win-win situation),
X) Finally a job => of what use are all these if you cant find a job whose line of duty will call you to interview :d!
E O G =>End of Gyan for the day, will be back tomorrow.

Ends as ends in themselves and not means to some other ends.

Life is a capricious continuum of various trignometric curves.
Women are meant to be loved and not understood.
Skill is fine, and genius in splendid, but right contacts are more valuable than either.

Doing what, doing why, don't know!

What am I going to write on? Absolutely no idea. Its already 9:30 in the night and I have absolutely no hunch of what I'm going to write, it would be false on my part to say nothing interesting stuck me or that I'm at a loss of topics but the whole point is I've pondered over so many potential "post" material that I'm left with none.
Some of the possible topics that I thought should grace this post are =>
Greek Roman Egyptian -> Legends&Deities,
The Ten Commandments,
Chinese heritage,
Monuments of the world.....
......
....
...
..
.
The list goes on & on.
Anyway, I was told by a visitor that there were a lot of typos in my previous posts and questioned me of as weather it was done on purpose or if my semantic skills are so dubious.,
CLARIFICATION => Errors were more because of irrational exuberance than anything else.
Next post I promise would be a lot more interesting than this one.
Signing off.
