A day without AC in office



May the impact of global warming the climatic conditions has changed drastically around the world. Bangalore was know as air conditioned city few years ago but now people can't people without AC during day time. Morning n evening time is pretty cool usually in comparison to afternoon. Most offices in bangalore are have centralized AC to maintain normal temperature due to the presence of glass chambers in office, which absorb more heat.

Yesterday when I turned of our zones AC found it was not functioning, as it was not responding to remote. Immediately informed our office guy about it, he in turn called up mechanic to fix up the problem. After reviewing AC it was discovered problem was bit major, will take a day or two for rectification. Me and manager were thinking of the days ahead with AC.

Though fans were there to cool to the temperature but by afternoon started feeling like fever was not able to concentrate on work even. By evening it became unbearable for me to sit in office and left for home early as has developed severe headache by then. Don't have AC in my house but can survive there not in workplace. Seems like its because of the temperament one has towards things.Night it was pretty cold so didn't even turn on the fan even.

Mechanics were suppose to drop in today but they didn't turn up. I was prepared for it so am not feeling uncomfortable today as it was yesterday. My manager is one person who can't survive without AC in office, even if its raining or has snowfall outside. The moment he comes to office first thing done by him is to adjust the temperature of AC. If we complain he tells us either to shift our seat or bring woolens to office, left with no other option sit in cool temperature.

We should try to avoid these things once in a blue moon to test our ability to survive without them. Don't you feel the same..

Hectic monday post weekends



Holidays are always fun be it small vacation or weekends. This is the only time when you are able to pay bit attention to oneself. First weekends of the months are bit tiring as one to shop all house hold stuff for the month. Some of us even has to go out to pay electricity bills more tiring job. All these activities are usually conducted at day time to enjoy night out with friends.

This weekend was bit hectic for me, had appointment with doctor for routine check up Saturday evening. Morning was with my cousins (followed by a small nap in afternoon), though we stay next to each other but can catch up only on weekends. Post consultation went for window shopping, but did get all things which I was in need of. Climate was getting cold and had to take dinner even so left the shopping mall for home.

On way back had dinner from my favorite restaurant this time all alone as all my friends were busy. Reached home and glued before the idiot box till 12 am, to wake up by 8 am on sunday with full drowsiness in eyes. Somehow had breakfast then was again to bed but slept till 12 pm , prepared lunch again was on bed till 4pm. As night approached started planning for next weekend.

Biggest challenge on monday is the sleep syndrome after effect of afternoon naps. Mondays are hectic because of compilation of two days, once you adore your chair all enjoyment vanish into thin air by the hard facts before ones eyes.

Whatever it is holidays are always fun and people look forward to it..

What happened in my last birth? Raaz pichhle janam ka



NDTV imagine has come out with a new reality show "Raaz pichhle janam ka " secret of your past life. Here participants will go in their past life and know the cause of any problem which is tormenting their present day life. Entire process seems to be bit risky but is conduced under the supervision of a doctor.

Couldn't believe my eyes when saw participants going to their past life and coming back safe, but can't imagine the trauma which they would have undergone during the process. Somewhere feel like a person privacy is at stake. Don't know about our past life deeds if things are good fine but we had bad experience or action our present life my also be effected by it. We are sharing our life in front of the world.

Channel is minting money at the behest of innocent people. People get instant publicity by participating in such shows make be for a day or 2 but in the long run it doesn't help. Given an opportunity even I may be a part of reality but not at the stake of my privacy and family.

It is often said we shouldn't dig the debris as don't know what it folds in self? Same is the case with this show participants are not aware of what would unfold to them.

Buying pain with money



Who doesn't want a good body which would come people to turn around once? To acquire it people adopt various ways to suit their needs like dieting, hitting gym, yoga to name a few. Often going on diet is the primary step adopted by most of us as it is easy and doesn't cost much. Nobody wants to get out of their comfort zone but want to achieve results.

My work requires me to sit in front of system for a longer period of time. Of-late I started putting on weight evident from my small tummy which was at the verge of inception. Putting T-shirts with tummy didn't go well with me, immediately decided upon reducing weight before its too late. Started dieting gave up outside food, less oil in food preparation, less food but no respite.

Finally decided to hit gym at last resort had it in past even so was confident about the outcome. First 3 days were hell, full body was on ache couldn't even sleep well,but in hope of getting good physique beard it with full courage. Result was visible in 3 months because don't strain myself to the core because of back ache.Then hitting gym became a part of my life, couldn't do without it. Befriended few people in gym who guided me to in achieving my target.

But hitting gym after vacations were very painful, had to motivate myself a lot to do so. Often used to think why am I paying money for this pain. Daily while doing exercise also one has to bear pain when weights are increased, seems like their is no strength left in body.Have heard people screaming in pain when they try to lift weight beyond their capacity.

But this pain has a hidden pleasure engulfed in it, that's the reason why people go for it. Best way to motivate oneself is imagination. Won't you try once.

Wonderful shopping experience @ Total madivala

Shopping is a pain but can't do without it, every month need to go for buying household commodities. People throng malls like anything during weekends to buy things for the next one week or month together.Visiting malls are convenient because everything is available at one place. Quality of the products could be relied upon blind folded.

Like every month went to Total @ madivala, first floor had undergone renovation so was bit difficult to locate things initially. Luckily they didn't do much renovation in customer durable section it was the same. While getting things it strike me to get drainex to unblock kitchen sink. Not being able to find it in self took help from one of the sales guy their "reply was if its not in shelf then we don't have it". I was bit disappointed as its need was urgent for me.

A lady may be the floor supervisor saw my interaction with the sales person and asked what was I looking for? Told her want drainex she asked me to wait for 2 min and went to check it herself with the sales guy standing there. When she came back had drainex in her hand and even guided to the shelf where it was stocked. Felt too happy at the gesture of that lady, who was discharging her duties and responsibilities to the fullest. As moved forward found her reviewing each and every section of the corner to facilitate people who needed help.

Had been shopping their for quite sometime now but this was my most memorable experience where I got a taste of what being cared for was?

How difficult it is to say "No"?



Most of us would have come across this situation at point of their life when they had to say no to someone close to them. With strangers its not an issue, we don't even think twice to use the term, difficulty arise with our family and friends. A single word can harm many so use of the word and situation must be tactful.

Today came across such situation where a friends of mine had put forward an unrealistic demand in front of me. Usually I accept his demand and do the needful but today said no to him. I didn't want to stake our friendship so had to spend some time in making things clear to him. But still feel of guilt has engulfed me, seems like can't forget his last words. Though he was compose but his voice was not complementing his gesture.

Will talk to him for clarifying my stand but not now, he won't listen to me or things may go worse. This feeling is temporary but still keep taunting throughout till it gets subsided. But one thing is for sure I will stick to my stand come whatever it may. To achieve something good you need to make some sacrifices will consider this incident one among them.

Taking stands are easy but implementing it on someone close it very difficult at time people even change their decision to avoid certain situations.

Differciating between good and evil



Its difficult to follow the path of honestly, sincerity and goodness in long run, utmost a person can follow it for a month or more not beyond that. Often thought about it but finding an answer was a tough deal so decided to follow the path myself. Initially things were easy because of enthusiasm but of late it started becoming difficult one day finally gave up.

But realized few thing during this process that our will power is solely responsible for choosing the path between good and evil. Initially we may follow the path of righteous, which is very difficult when we have so many negative vibes around us. But our tendency to lean towards evil increase when we come across set backs and hardships. Its here when we start loosing our confidence, which effects our decision making skills

Its just like "Worth of thing is realized only when it is lost" in the same manner our realization of mistake is known when we face the consequences of deeds done by us. A person identity is by the deeds done by him, which depends on his ability to withstand tough situation. Its human nature to go for things which are easily available than trying for tough ones. Those who have the ability to determination and courage to pass through any situation can be a winner.

All of us try to be a winner but only few emerge out. Would like to meet few such people who have not bend before hardship and moved till they attain their goal..
