5 Truths About Me !

Here m gonaa disclose some truths about me which not everybody knows, only people who are very close to me have known these facts. Well I am like this ..

Dance—

Anyone can know that I sing..because I sing when I feel like so even if u sit next to my cubical u cld judge that ..But there’s something else too…Well I not only have dancing toes, each atom of body dances crazily..
I am crazy about dancing and I luvhhh It to the core …Love dancing like a Rock Star

Partying & Acting —

I love partying but only nd only with my close friends and family. Nd if I am in a mood then be aware because I love playing pranks .

Acting i do
Only with my friends.. oh dear if I have known u .. I mean seen u .. U bet I can play u

Friends---

I don’t just make anybody my friend, though I m friendly nd I may b friendly to my biggest enemy I just am very very choosy about my friends
But They don’t have to have a particular attribute- my friends should win my heart (some do that in first meet some take thoda sa time )nd I love them all and I respect them all

Family –

For me , Me and my Family are the Same and equal.

National Anthem---

I love my country the MOST.. I think it’s a lovely place with lovely people. I sing national anthem whenever I feel like, may b m reading something or cooking or just watching the sun rise,birds flying… I may b sitting or dancing or lying in my bed ( people scold me for this ) but I have a philosophy – that atleast I sing it,nd I sing it many times…others just don’t sing it because they then have to stand and not move for those 52 secs… my respect is not bounded by a gesture.. so i sing national anthem may be 6-7 times in a go :P Its my fav song

How many people know that our national anthem is awarded the best in the world by UNICEF?? I don’t knw y media don’t highlight these things

Religion—
Well all the people even my closest friends say m religious , traditional.. don’t know why ?? well… I am spiritual ( if that’s a proper word) and I love our culture… But I am not at al bound by only a set ideas..

I think I m still learning about life..nd there are some very good things and some things which should be avoided bec we are social beings.. but frankly speaking --- I DON’T njoy Judging people without Knowing everything …

So sometimes I don’t hate same people those my friends hate nd sometimes I do love people those are out of place. I do love people when others dont find any reason for even making them friends..
i think My heart is my religion ( I also use brains and mind as support systems)

SO here it was..there may be things which readers wont find proper and may be some would find it OK.. But do write in if u feel there's something i should know :)

Traveling faster than Light “ To boldly go where no man has gone before”

Today in one of the TOI sections I came across this news that now “Scientists believe faster-than-light travel may be possible”.
The first thing that strike my mind was “Star Trek “. I am a fan of Star Trek The Original Series popularly known as “TOS”. The next generation couldn’t mesmerize me the way “TOS” did.. nd I would still love to watch those episodes nd have a great time
I have always been curious about our universe, I have always believed in existence of some other life forms. So as a child I enjoyed watching the interplanetary voyages.
Star Trek, also known as "TOS" or The Original Series, debuted in the United States on NBC on September 8, 1966. The show tells the tale of the crew of the starship Enterprise and its crew's five-year mission "to boldly go where no man has gone before." The original 1966-1969 television series featured William Shatner as Captain James Tiberius Kirk, Leonard Nimoy as Spock, DeForest Kelley as Dr. Leonard "Bones" McCoy, James Doohan as Montgomery Scott, Nichelle Nichols as Uhura, George Takei as Hikaru Sulu, and Walter Koenig as Pavel Chekov.
Though I was watching the series in late 90’s but still the drama has never failed to mesmerize me. We had small group of friends, where each gal was crazy about Captain (even Mom and aunties liked him ).Kirk was really handsome at his time J. But I had loved “SPOC” the system,operations engg of the crew. He had a different style of saying the word “Fascinating” which I borrowed from him . He appeared to be always on a secret mission and was funny too with weird ears. He seemed to be the most intelligent member of the crew who through his wits had saved the voyage so many times.
When we used to play star wars , I would always chose to become SPOC , rather than a handsome captain ( al the alien women also used to go crazy for him) or doctor McCoy.
I was happy to know later that in its first two seasons, it was nominated for Emmy Awards as Best Dramatic Series, and Leonard Nimoy received nominations all three years for acting.(he was better than captain kirk u see )
In the Star Trek universe, humans developed faster-than-light space travel, using a form of propulsion referred to as "warp drive", following a nuclear war and a post-apocalyptic period in the mid-21st century. According to the story timeline, the first warp flight happened on 5 April2063, and the Vulcans, an advanced alien race, made first contact with Earth on that day after detecting the warp drive signature. Partly as a result of the intervention and scientific teachings of the Vulcans, humans largely overcame many Earth-bound frailties and vices by the middle of the 22nd century, creating a quasi-utopian society where the central role is played not by money, but rather by the need for exploration and knowledge. Later, mankind united with some of the other sentient species of the galaxy, including the Vulcans, to form the United Federation of Planets.
In 2009 Now 2 scientists at Baylor university in US believe they have an idea that can turn travelling at speed of light from sci fiction to science,without breaking any rules of physics
Einstien’s fundamental speed limit only applies within space-time, which doesn’t prohibit space-time itself to travel faster than light,.by manipulating space-time around the ship it could be possible to creat bubble that would push the ship faster than speed of light.
The former head of NASA’s Breakthrough Propulsion Physics project, Marc Millis,thinks the idea is credible because it may have already happened. Some theories of what took place after Big Bang Suggest that space time expanded at a rate faster –than-light- speed.
The method is known as Alcubierre drive,reminiscent of starship eneterprise’s warp drive,which proposes expanding fabric of space behind the ship into a bubble and shrinking space-time infront of the ship.Neways till then it all happens, that time starts moving faster than light ????? I think I should be serious about the time at my hand..

The last Concal

This was 23/4/09 when the new structure was gonna be annouced for FY'09. Structure was on the talks since the business has started slowing down and people were moved out,The time n space is sep/oct 'o8.

Well, in late april the news within organisation was that there would be 13000 people who are moving out of job from our organisation. This WAS Huge!! and it is being Done !
There were people moved out despite of good performances,despite of their positions,despite of their connections- The reason was simply - to make this organisation survive,to save job n lives of rest of 18ooo people. And those who were moving out was just supposed to understand this thing.. I dont wanna talk about who deserved to be there in that 18k bucket

But this concal was the thing everybody awaited since long- It was for our vertical and i knew that today i would not be there in the concal_____ My boss already told me that & i had 2 understand.
I admire my Boss a lot, he was a good performer,that's why i was a good performer too !but i had a feeling that though i had been a good employee for this organisation, organisation somehow failed in its responsibilities.. they could have saved us only if they had thought of releasing us from this vertical a bit earlier,but our authorities action is justified because they had their own aspirations.. so let everyone work,who has time to think about others ??
But they missed that there are some reportees who worked for this company,who have lives dependent on this job.
But there were lot more work that these biggies do, except for a bit concern about the lives of their reportees...What about honest respect that they HAD?? One colleague rightly quoted " if bosses have all the rights to scream at us in the name of Job, do they not have the reponsibilities of our carrier" he is a married man with various financial laibilities asked when he was told that you are out of job. Though i have less to complain then my co-workers, but still its a BIg question --does not the responsibilities come hand in hand with the rights???
The concall was at 4:30 PM and i went to my Boss around 3:30 n asked him if i could leave.. He said "you shouldnt do this " ..i was why???????? may be he doesnt remember that there is that announcement today...but within myself i dint want toleave either.. i wanted to be there when it was getting anounced.. and i couldnt Thank him more :)
Everybody was sitting on the call n usually he would keep that speaker phone on .. bt somehow he realised that it could be painfull for me to listen to this thing..{i always thought i was lucky to get an understanding boss :) } or may b he just wanted to hide some info ...:P anyways at that time he couldnt come nd tell me to leave.. So,He putoff the speaker and continued with the call for whole 2:30 hrs ..
Meanwhile i was feeling sad and was trying to hide my tears from everybody, then somehow at that moment when future responsibilites were getting announced and i saw my mentor, my colleague getting ready for their next tough year.. I gathered my self- i released myself from my current job, it was during that moment ( whch i have awaited since long -with my aspirations of continuing here )__that so called low moment of my professional life__ i regained myself for the new heights
I wrote a poem n while i was writing it when the concall got over ...My boss came nd told me--- " tum jao ghar,waise bhi so rahi ho :) " I smiledtoo and told, mei thodi deyr aur rukungi. coulndt tell him what i was doing there between the call :)
Here's what i wrote

Kabhi dhuup kabhi chhanv
Kya Akash ki he parchhaiyan hai?
Kabhi subeh kabhi Shaam
Ye jeevan ki he gehraiyan hai..

Haar ke malaal mei na tu ,zindagi ko yu giraft kar
Tu naye se ek muqaam ki, lizzat mei kho ke mauj kar
Ummeed ki kirno se he khushiyo ke gul ubharte hai
Tu shaam mei aram kar,seher mei fir se kuuch kar
Jeet tere sath hai,tu har lamha uska shauk kar
Befikr hoke kaam kar,“khudi“ se apna naam kar

Tera is raah pe thamna,
Kisi agaaz ka sandesh hai !
Is tehraav ke anjaam mei he
Uphaar ka andesh hai !
Tu nidar, har peher, usi uphaar ka intzaar kar,
Tu bebak isi vishwaas se,fir jeet ka ikhlaas kar!! [ikhlaas - Shuruat ]

Sadiyon se sabne dekha hai,Roshni se he Savera hai
Tu aaj fir se tuut kar, lakshya fir se chuur kar !
Khushiya to tere sath hai, dhoond mat idhar udhar
Is waqt tu sambhal zara,intzaar kar intzaar kar !!

Job the builder!

My last day in Office today is over! Most of the time i was busy cleaning up my mailbox,my laptop and desk, and doing the HR formalities..but actually i was gathering all the memories of the time spent at this profile. There were people whom i have interacted for my adhoc requirements, people on my postit's,some people whom i would just see regularly at the coffee machine,or cafeteria just passing by daily..exchanging smiles.. and ~Then there were people with whom i have shared my daily routines for past 11 months..people of my team..two of which were moving out with me today. Apart from lies that are told constatly in offices and all the politics there is also something else that happens when you spend 10 hours of your 24 hrs of daily life with some people.

Some relations also get build,some friendships get build,some enemies ( its a personal choice),.. i for myself have got a lot from tis organisation and people with whom i worked.. i learnt what should be done to survive ( nd thats something not u find in good good books) ..but one may think that if you learnt that.. how come u dint survive??
Simply because i dint want to?? No.. i think i was busy trying my ways, which i thought would do.:)
Neways, i am gonna apply watever i have learned in my new venture.. thats how i live my life..hmm.. one more thing.. it is been said that u dont find friends in office--- No bosses are good--blah blah.. well...i was lucky enough to find friends & good bosses ( though all these are also already infected with that taboo politics n lies,nd so called smartness )
I guess .. Job help build you as a person & personality ...Direstion is always your choice

99 Fever

i heard of this 99 fever when sachin used to get out in 99 runs..Well what would you say it when someone goes out of job at her 11th month :P
Today is the last day of my first job and its a mix feeling right now. I will miss that job,that place,my desk,those people, that energy,that essence :).. but soon a new inning is gonna start and m getting ready in anticipation of a new beginning.. till then,let me njoi the last halt at my old place

I feel light...

I am feeling grt that I have made my choice today… I wish for Gods grace and I thank all for helping me & guiding me.

Me & The Recession

The great depression, I have always read about the recessions of the past from childhood,nd simply it meant that people dint have jobs and I used to imagine a state where everybody was lying idle in their homes & roaming in the streets. It was depressing bec I used to think that at those times world had stopped working??!! No vigor?!..well that was very boring for me.

I for myself had studied all through thinking that it was past and nothing like it would ever happen to me, this world is run by some very sharp human(imal) minds. But Now its different, I in my first Job Not only is watching the so called recession but also is a victim of it. I had always wondered when cigars became the currency, if anything like this would happenWhat should be the currency ..what should I have??

I think what one always require is the need /hunger for your aspirations, with interest in the process of achieving it,I believe every thing else would come along with it.Work never stops in recession/no recession,. Its dynamism is never fading.Some people battle in the same field & some move to fight other battles. I did a good job and I enjoyed it too, but then also my future is uncertain at this time. I am a victim of recession cause this thing for sure had the power to bring about the uncertainty in my life. I know everything would settle and I would again have that mundane office goers lifestyle, but at this time in doubtful situation, atleast I have some work to do ( I have to search for my battle field). I will be back to the usual, but till then I can’t afford to be upset.

I do cry but I never belonged to people vouching for sympathy. I don’t approve of the philosophy (I vouch for trust..thats v risky ). People give me excuses for my happiness “you are a girl, if u loose job its not that bad, u don’t have children to feed, u don’t have this/that issues..blah blah…SO WHAT ?? Believe me if I knew that cribbing could help in solving problems? But exposing bruises never helps. I am girl so what??, I did study & reached upto the top institute of this country , I did fought all the circumstances. I know that up/down comes in ones life,& later on everything is just a memory but I have always solved my issues and I would always keep doing that happily.

The issue with people who get defeat is not the gender,not the insecurity of life or money or job. The issue is ATTITUDE.The world has to change its attitude towards living! There is no other solution to any problem ,I can just wish from my fellow mates( those victims of recession) to start working happily . As the solution to recession is not falling for great depression solution is in Optimism,staying humble with dare & fight !As far as m concerned..il fight this and win !
