..how everyone finds it easy to believe that any bug which appears in an app must not have been tested.
It doesn’t matter if QE did test it. Thinking worse of QE is becoming a habit. Worse part is even managers indulge in it. Since when is our code not susceptible to any recent changes.

Just Do It…

This is just so True.. I think I’m gonna print this one and Hang it on my Wall :)

“Take Chances. Tell the truth. Date someone totally wrong for you. Say no. Spend all your cash. Fall in love. Get to know someone random. Be random. Say I love you. Sing out loud. Laugh at stupid jokes. Cry. Apologize. Tell someone how much they mean to you. Tell a jerk what you think. Laugh til your stomach hurts and yours eyes water. Live life. And most of all…Have no regrets.”
—Lindsey Biggers

Btw.. I’ve done everything mentioned here. So Guess I’m living my life well.. :)

You are Beautiful..

Came across this and totally agree..

“You are beautiful…when you let friends have their space, when you believe, when you laugh, or are moved to tears, when you let it just roll right off your back, when you talk about your dreams, when you help a turtle across the road, when you try to do the right thing even when it comes out wrong, when you love.”

It’s pretty easy these days.
Just chuck your shoe at any national leader in any of the numerous political rallies happening.

I would be careful with the Designer Ones though. There’s no guarantee if you’ll get it back :)

Politics at work suck.. More so, when you see people playing it being rewarded..
So my lesson of the day is “It’s all about convincing people upstairs that you work more and better than others. Whether you work or not is different issue. Hence, spend more time on mails and less on actual work.”
I think it’s time for another long vacation..

I just won..

the award for being most selfish person on earth.

When did I turn into this person? And how can I be so oblivious to someone else’s feelings? Why did I let things get this far?
So today is the day I spend wallowing in Guilt Trips.. Meanie Meanie Me…

Sorry, You are slightly fat to be loved by my standards…

Recently I met this girl, extremely fun, intelligent n pretty as well. In fact, not even for once I wondered about her weight or looks. She mentioned she was just getting over this long-term relationship which recently ended. I didn’t bother to ask why they broke up and all. Well, I really don’t care about that and I had just met her, right. So, we hung around, had fun, said goodbyes, only to keep in touch via numerous social networking sites. So I saw her blog link and knowing her as little as I did, I was sure it would be a good read. In one of her posts, she mentioned the reason for break up.
And guess the reason, Guy wanted her to lose weight so she would become perfect.
Excuse me, wasn’t love supposed to make you perfect? Or was it that love overcomes all imperfection?
This girl doesn’t even qualify as fat. At max, she can enter the slightly plump round. And considering, it’s India, I would say thats the average figure, curvy & voluptuous.
Most importantly, since when weight is a criteria for marriage?
A funny, smart, beautiful girl needs to lose weight, so she can get married to the guy she’s in love with. Guy who professes his love every day. But he just thinks she can be perfect only after shedding those extra Kilos.
She took the right way and showed him the highway. (nice rhyme :P )
But not without the hurt and pain which comes after broken heart.

It hurts to see physical attribute coming in way of love. I thought Love was supposed to be above that. Atleast that’s what all quotes seem to say.
But if I just consider the romance on tv and novels, it’s always between good looking people. So yeah, maybe love is directly tied to your looks and weight.

It’s easy to..

..fall into new habits..
Whether it’s about taking a new route to work.. Or dropping by a pub for few drinks with friends.. Or talking to a new friend for hours..
And the funny part is, even though most of us hate change (atleast I do), we embrace these habits without even realizing we are doing it. It’s only when there’s an unexpected change in these habits, we realize the trap we have fallen into.
So I’m wondering what do you do now?
Should you try to break this newly developed habit before the habit breaks you?
or should you just go with the flow??

It’s just scary venturing into unknown. Esp when you had decided you won’t. And looks like one of such habit has just pushed me into this direction. So pull out now or regret later. Maybe I won’t regret it. Maybe I will. Such a Dilemma.
I wish there was a way you could know in advance if the path you are taking is right one or wrong. Yeah, I know. Delicious adventure of finding out later.. But still I would like to know in advance and stay prepared..

Fun for some, matter of survival for others..

What’s the first word that comes to your mind, when you hear word ‘Rain’?
Getting Wet, Hot cup of Tea, pakodas (Somewhat like cutlets) if you happen to be a north-Indian, Smell of earth, Long Drives, Rain dance..
Lots of things but none of these would generate a fear for your house (unless you happen to stay in leaking building).. Not a single one of these things would make you drop whatever work you have and start covering everything in that room you call home.
It’s strange how we always get so happy about rains and how people in slums always worry about them. All that rain means to them is ‘Need of Shelter’, Plastic sheets to cover roof, Leaks, Muddy Pathways, Diseases & Sickness..

I don’t know should I get happy about this untimely rain for relief in temperature or should I remind god that some people weren’t prepared for rains yet and they need to.

Why is it that even weather is unfair to those who are without any privileges in life?

Where Am I?
