AWE struck!

25th June,2010...the first time I set my eyes on Him!It was the most picturesque set I have ever been in..a moon-lit night..Pournami..and a light and gentle breeze was playing about.I took one step into His home and thats when it happened...It was unbelievable... a tsunami of here-to unexplored emotions hit me so fast,so hard!I never knew one could say so much without saying a word.All I wanted to do was just stand and stare at this tall and proud figure...He soared above everyone and everything around...and even dwarfed those higher than Him.It was beauty unseen and unexperienced,all the more enhanced as the soft moon light exposed the hard lines on His face.He did not need to try at all.His face was a mirror of pure excellence.It reflected pain,suffering and most important of all,the lines of someone who had withstood all of it,who understood life and a million ways to tackle it,who knew love in spite of facing so much so young..He seemed to know all the ways to immortality..He seemed to embrace life like I have never seen before.This is just His face.Here I give a peak into His heart.It was a heart of gold.Magnificiently majestic!A fitting heart for Him,who seemed to carry the world on His shoulders...a mere glimpse of Him is enough to take the breath out of you.The strong shoulders,sturdy body and the gaze!Oh my GOD!Satisfied me just like that....

It was something other than love that went through me.It was definitely a lightning flash....aaah!AWE struck!

ROGER FEDERER:The name says it all...

What I am going to write is a very small tribute to this extremely big man!The winner of 16 Slams(and still counting),appearances in 22 Slam finals,numerous ATP tour titles,Olympic doubles gold medallist(2008) and countless other accolades."History rewrites itself"!There seems to be only a present as the greatest player of all times goes on making  and breaking achievements!But,the record books are just not enough to capture what this man is in reality....what truly makes me hero-worship him.......
Watching him play is a full package of power,perfection and passion....pure genius!Every strike at the ball is one of innovation.Every move seems so effortless,so easy.He has given so many never before seen angles and dimensions to the game....and to my life.The back hand with the off-spin is so beautiful.Definitely.....Hand of God!



He shows how much is capable of the human body,how much there is to achieve for every person who steps on the Earth.He makes you realise that the Supreme Being has given us every tool to reach Him,its just that few understand it....Roger does!
The calm as he attacks every lime green fireball is almost unendurable!But,the storm of emotions post match gives you only a hint to what it takes to remain that way...what it takes to face obstacles like a man who knows no fear,who does his duty undauntingly,who plays for the love of the game and nothing else.The tears which accompany might seem a sign of weakness to some...to me,it shows the boldness to be able to express what you feel on a world stage,the strength to feel so much and not let it out for a single moment during the battle,it shows what tennis means to him,what has made him reach the pinnacle of glory...
He has given sport a new dimension altogether.A fresh new meaning......He has redefined the word Maestro,he has shown what it takes to be called one.....He has shown that "To err is human,to forgive is divine" is no longer true....what he says is "To be human is the first step to divinity".I believe him!

Sum(me,aarrrrgh)=Sum(me,r)=Summer?

Hey!reporting live from Mu-Sigma Solutions,EGL!The sun is shining bright again in Bangalore after many cool and cloudy days.
Statement:"Make hay while the sun shines!"
Negation:I am in an air conditioned room!
=> it does not apply to me!:)
In spite of the "active" sun,I have not come out of my weekend slumber..Just feel like drowsing off to glory!A cosy bed,many pillows,my softy bed-sheet...wonderful dream!:)
Yet,here I am (not)slogging in the office!

Enough of my lazy office stories and bullshit statements...Here's something that made an impression on me recently!I attended the wedding of my mama's friend's daughter...the typical Tamil wedding...nothing extraordinary,the usual food(my main attraction),fruit salad,ice cream,orchestra,buzz of conversation as people meet after a long time...one particular "buzz" was truly cool!6 friends meeting after 10 years!A doctor,a professor,another professor,a hotelier,a pensioneer,the last i-dont-remember-what-he-is..reminscing their Class 10 stories..They were the class of '61.It was so much fun and so much more weird to watch my 65-year-old uncle,a professor,talk of his days as a class 10 student..what really struck me was the amazing bond they seemed to share after all these years,a bond which has survived the toils of time and the ever-changing world...its wonderful!Hail friendship!And cheers to the class of '61 from this Bangalore School!:):):)

Back to my office...I am getting really bored...what a way to spend the summer!I am sick and tired of coming to this office everyday and most of the time,do nothing.I just want a typical summer vacation...shopping,reading tonnes of novels,travelling,exploring some new place,lazing at home,watching back2back movies,going to the beach with friends,to the amusement park with my cousins....But now,there is no fun,excitement..basically no change!Its all dull and it sucks!Atleast,that's my mood today!God,give me a break!!!
Fortunately,God seems to have heard my prayers!:)I am off to Chennai tomorrow night to attend a cousin's wedding and then to a short tour of some of the bold and beautiful temples of Tamil Nadu..the Brihadeeswara temple in Thanjavur,the vast SriRangam temple complex and the Rock fort in Trichy.Although,its not much..its definitely a break!And its what I wished for..So,no complaints!Thank you,God...Guess I will come back rejunevated for the last two weeks of my internship!:)Its not all "aaaarrrgh" for me after all...

My First Post

Hey!Another day in my office,Mu Sigma Business Solutions,Bangalore, enjoying doing nothing.What next?I have finished my novels.I have gone through today's news.Facebook is banned in the office....So,here I am on blogger trying out my unexplored blogging talents..forcing my redundant writing skills to come out...It does feel like asking a fossil to come back to life..But then, I have read Michael Crichton,it seems possible!:)
However...as I said,I am in my Bang office and doing "My First Job"...and quite a good one too...hardly stressful and kinda fun..Yet,I dont intend to do anything of this sort permanently.I dont enjoy it and cant picture myself like this in the future.Coming back,I have come to my office everyday.Its a good feeling,you know...being good!Its ages(precisely 2 years..ever since I went to college) since I have been regular and sincere.I just dont understand what it is about college that makes me the most carefree creature on earth.Somehow,thats a wonderful feeling too since I guess life wont again give so much time to just "stand and stare"!It feels like a rest house in between the rat race to success...It feels like a minute of leisure during the peak rush hour of the day,a time when time waits!College seems to give you a chance to do all that you have always wanted to do..have fun!As for me,I guess I can consider myself to be really lucky..college has treated me well..it has let me discover myself,know myself better,it has given me good friends,it has given me a glimpse of the crude and naked world I have to face beyond and yet,kept my innocence preserved,it has taught me so much in so short a time!Its definitely become a home away from home...All this and I still have 2 years to go!
But,I guess its not for long...it again feels as if the clock is ticking.I dont think I am experiencing the zero gravity feel any more.Its come to 2 or 3 G's now...still,there is some time in my hands before I say....on your marks,get set,GO!
