I'm 30

Dear diary

.... and I turn 30. I have completed half of my life give or take 10 years. Birthday is a day to reflect on rest of the days of your year. For me the year end and birthday overlaps. So I make my decisions and commitments two days prior to 31 and have a head start . Well using the work head start is not me. I on principle do not compare myself with other people. I'm not living their lives so I have no right to compare my with theirs. So how was my year ? you ask!! It was good ,

  • I do not remember being sad for a single day. 
  • Missed a trekking trip with a friend. 
  • Some work days were long and tough.
  • Gwalior trips with nice people from office
  • Ace awards from office
  • Married off a few people
  • Tokyo and Singapore trip
  • Amazing Amritsar and Wagah trip
  • Rakshabandhan with Sisters and Brothers
  • Stage play in office
  • Go Karting from office 
  • Swimming lessons
  • Retirement of an uncle
  • First Hackathon attempt 
  • Engaged off a cousin 
  • Watched my office team play cricket
  • Saw some good people leave my team
That sounds like it. Was indeed a busy year. As you may know my beliefs about future is a kind of fuzzy. I do look at the horoscopes on my Birthday to get a gauge on how they think, my next year is going to be but mostly I live in today. Some of the things that I believe would happen in the current year.
  • MARRIAGE 
  • No one know what happens after that...
I do need to study a lot to remain relevant in the industry and also I need to start writing a blog. Write down the things that I learn so that I can refer to them later. Also need to exercise regularly and find out the topic I would like to spend my career on. The Task is difficult and the amount of attention deficit I have per topic, seemingly impossible. I probably will have to be master of a lot of trades, if I continue like this. This post if getting out of hand and I would like to end it by wishing myself a Happy Birthday and wonderful year ahead.
God Bless you , God bless me and God bless us all

I'm not anti-social, I'm just not user friendly.

Dear diary This is one of my status updates on facebook, suits me quite well doesn't it. I am not an easy to understand person as everyone is expected to be complicated . Simple mindedness is not accepted as simply as it should be. Everyone thinks that you mean something else while you are saying something . They tend to read between the lines when they shouldn't and they tend to take to my word when they should not. Something should be wrong with me as everyone else cannot be wrong. But who cares I will remain who I am and will go to become who I was to. Remove all the filters and then I'm really user-friendly and easy to understand. As I have always said that there is someone looking for me up there. He has proved it once again. I am about to get some good quality work in my office . I don't really talk about my work in my blog but this is a good opportunity for me .Everyone is so afraid of becoming jack of all trades but I strive to achieve that . No knowledge is...
