10 PM

It is about 10 PM. Seems to be the most productive time of mine...mornings seem too chaotic and hypocritic. I am sitting in this big zone (they call it Orange)...with about 50 cubes. None but me sitting here and editing a test plan. Just then, I thought of sharing my plight with you bloggy. ...Listening to ....know what? Chupke Chupke raat din..

One way, it is satisfying, that this song is holding me tight. These ghazals are like real alcohol...like nasha what they say..though I have never tasted alcohol...got the gyan from my friends....initially you will not like it...slowly ...and slowly...you will have to listen to it for some 5 times...before getting a strange feeling for it...samjho you are stuck with it. You will not leave it for the rest of the time.

There is some sorrow-clad joy in this song. Chupke chupke raat din aasoon bahana yaad hain...ya..we all have done it..haven't we? It brings us some old memories..takes us to the heights of nostalgia of a recent past!

It goes..

Dopahar ki dhoop mein mere bulaane ke liye,
woh tera kothe pe nange paav aana yaad hain,
humko ab tak aashiquin ka woh zamana yaad hain...

add to that Ghulam ali's jaam. Maan..you will immerse in it.


Next song from him goes...
Humgaama hain kyu barpaaa, thodi si jo peeli hain,
daaka to nahi daala, chori to nahi kee hain...

This guy will really make me drink one day!

In big companies, one needs to talk well...doesn't matter if you talk junk. You should keep on talking to make others feel your presence. It doesnt matter how you did your work. And what were we taught by parents, teachers? Do your work sincerely and rewards will come to you automatically.

Most of the meetings that my group conducts seem like noise with little content. Yes...one has got to thrive in this and get performance points. One day, I will also get adjusted to this....look at me 5 years from here..I will talking words like process, systems, strategies, very disconnected from real world.

But still then, it goes on...why? due to some smart people who take others lightly and continue to put in their hardwork and intelligence no matter what. Looking at it physically, it seems like as if this guy is taking the weight of 10 people. Doesn't it remind of Ayn Rand's Atlast Shrugged? Pardon me, I am not talking about myself...I am still a bachcha here.

Ayn Rand seems to connect with our country political situation properly. And that starts butterflies in my stomach.

And thus I stop abruptly...with a confused and disturbed mind.
