Goodbye 2008


It's the end of another year, and what a year it has been. To put it simply, a mixed bag.

The year started off quietly, my relatives who had come down for Christmas & New Year were still around. After the celebrations they were touring different places in India. So back here it was pretty quiet. We all here got back to our daily routine, work, home and the other monotonous stuff.

Things went all as usual. During the course of the year my friendship with 2 people became really strong. I knew them from before, but we struck a great bonding this year, and hopefully it will last forever :-)

The 2nd half of the year got bad for me professionally. Friction at work, the new management not liking the way we people who were there from before worked. Led to many issues, some unavoidable, some fabricated. In a few months time things became so bad that I decided to quit from there. Infact my last day was just this month, a few days back.

2009 looks good. I have started doing some freelance work at home. Also will take up a job in Jan and then will do both the job and freelance together. So professionally things are looking up. Personally I need to sort a lot of things and hopefully they will be ironed out soon for my own good.

All in all 2008 was an ok year, professional change, some personal issues and bonding with few people who really love and care for me a lot and vice verca.

The image with this article is a bullet, it symbolizes that 2008 hit me a bit with negative things, some positive things came too and it's fast going into what i see as a great next year.

So, goodbye 2008 and Cheers to a New and Happy n Fruitful 2009 :-)

Awesome Threesome


The first blog had to be dedicated to my awesome two buddies who have always stood by me in thick and thin. We know each other from a couple of years now, but it's from the past 6 months that we have really hit it together and get along really well. It just happened, nothing planned.
It is said that best friends are actually the siblings that God forgot to give us, and with this example I truly believe in that. We come from different backgrounds but that does not show one bit when we're together. Always having a ball of a time. We three have our different set of problems, and it's being there for each other that makes us strong and carry on.
Let me keep this simple by ending here and saluting my 2 buddies .... God Bless you both ALWAYS :-)
