Meandering Musings: December 2010
http://musingsmeandered.blogspot.com/2010_12_01_archive.html
Friday, December 31, 2010. Filter coffee. Period. Maybe a dog at your feet too! Home cooked food to that. Well I managed to reach home in a AC car paying 350Rs for 10kms, did some shopping to find out Onions have touched 100Rs per kg(! And to my horror wrote in Tamil after years! Anyways, this blog is not about any of those. Old Shoes served well! This blog is my yearly roundup – a decade’s actually! Has come after I ditched 2 blogs on Airports and Capitalism! New Shoes for the journey ahead. From a glor...

Meandering Musings: March 2011
http://musingsmeandered.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html
Saturday, March 26, 2011. Since my last blog 3 months back, I have kind of changed as a person. Nothing Marlyn Mason type, just a few minor adjustments to prep me up for the post B-School world. Given the scariness of the place outside and the 2 years that were supposed to equip me for the battle, its time to set things right. Everybody says it’s a rat race out there. Then shouldn’t the one who breaks the rope at the finish be the toughest and the meanest rat? As I move ahead to my dream career, I will d...

Meandering Musings: January 2012
http://musingsmeandered.blogspot.com/2012_01_01_archive.html
Monday, January 16, 2012. Old Benedryl in New Bottle. For the last 4-5 years, this has been the time. You know, where I introspect, prioritize, re-strategize and do pretty much the same thing I’ve been doing forever in life. I guess the last year was something I’m thankful for, so I know what to look forward to in this year (what with doomsday prediction and all) Just thinking aloud, writing down later and posting it mid month. 8221; Smart you are! I’ve fulfilled my responsibilities with a bit of a...

Meandering Musings: August 2010
http://musingsmeandered.blogspot.com/2010_08_01_archive.html
Friday, August 27, 2010. Of Meetings And My Scripted Life. I hate long days with meetings. I always have, even as an insignificant engineer giving updates to bored managers. I wondered if my hatred had anything to do with the fact that I could have done something more productive that time. When I shared this with my colleague in office, I couldn’t get her to stop laughing! In my defence, Calvin and Hobbes gave perspective! Engineering Internship , evening 4.30pm. The meeting is done in 15 mins? It does h...

Meandering Musings: First Born Syndrome
http://musingsmeandered.blogspot.com/2012/04/first-born-syndrome.html
Wednesday, April 11, 2012. Sunday afternoon in 2008 at T2 Sarvabhouma Nagar with roomies, Cheese Burst Pizza and the laptop playing ‘Sorry Bhai’ movie. “Shit! Just realized we are all first borns here man! How can he do that? That too when its Chitrangada Singh! 8221; “You never know dude! And this guy Sanjay Suri has to give up just cos he is an elder brother! Its almost like if you are first born you have to be the sacrificing one! How unfair is that! I’m elder and so I must be grownup. It has scenes t...

Meandering Musings: November 2010
http://musingsmeandered.blogspot.com/2010_11_01_archive.html
Monday, November 29, 2010. You know I’ve hated Diary entries, especially when it used to come as 10 marks question in Section B of English in class X. But somehow, I felt you must be remembered in the times of lost blogs and tweeple people. It would also serve to write something understandable for the benefit of anonymous commenter, who asked me to do so over maggi after my last blog. I was just trying a movie voice over – it’s actually awesome) So much for my writing dreams! I just imagined Barkha Dutt,...

Meandering Musings: February 2012
http://musingsmeandered.blogspot.com/2012_02_01_archive.html
Wednesday, February 15, 2012. When a blog title is sufficiently vague, its like abstract GD and I was for some odd reason a big fan of them. I guess it was because it let me drift off without having to explain myself, at the same time making me seem pseudo intellectual, until I crack the next PJ atleast. This blog - I have a 3 point interpretation. (reminded me of a professor of ours :P ). Also dawned on me that when the fairer sex asks you ‘Is this alright? It is a disguised ‘How do I look? 8217; which ...

Meandering Musings: June 2010
http://musingsmeandered.blogspot.com/2010_06_01_archive.html
Sunday, June 6, 2010. Mumbai – Memories. After a blog that made as much sense to people as an Organizational Behaviour session on paradigm shift, I am back to cat-rat-bat writing. My stint at Mumbai comes to an end today and I know the entire Mumbai chapter is going to play in front of my eyes much like a sitcom end! You can’t take bollywood (or kollywood or any wood) out of Indians. As Woody Allen says “Life is understood only backwards. It is only the movement that is forward”. Mumbai – Memories. What ...

Meandering Musings: June 2011
http://musingsmeandered.blogspot.com/2011_06_01_archive.html
Friday, June 3, 2011. Memories have a crazy and almost sad way of surfacing. Last Sunday, I remembered, downloaded and revisited a chapter from my CBSE class XI book called “God Is Near” (Chapter 12 of “It Shouldn’t happen to a Vet” by James Herriot). I now realize you can’t find closure in books for the loss of such a loved/loving pet. They say animals have no souls.". Oh, I've read it and I know a lot of religious people believe it.". From It Shouldn't Happen to a Vet. Desirable after all :(. The Fox a...
