One month celebrations ....

One month of doing almost absolutely nothing teaches you one thing if not anything else, that time just flies by ..soo quick that before you get a chance to look back you are way too far to turn around :)

Politics as usual

Major demands by Reddy brothers in Karnataka:
1. Withdrawl of all cases against them !!!!!!!
2. Give them home or industries portfolios in the cabinet !!!
3. Major reshuffle in the cabinet with ministries to their near ones !!
4. Change of CM !

and Yet to be known publicly: where does Ananth Kumar fit in all this ??

Why common cause with Reddys:

Party leaders here admit that the Reddy brothers are not alone in their grievance against Ms. Karandlaje, whose growing clout is believed to be the result of her being “close to” the Chief Minister. That was why a number of MLAs were ready to make common cause with the Reddys, apart from the undisputable fact of their money power.

Lucky that I was jobless enough to follow it closely.

My Dreams

Someone asked me what exactly is my dream, well I wont call becoming so and so as my dream coz it changes based on opportuninty and circumstances,

I'd define my dream to be a sense of achievement and honor in making the right difference in others lives

The baby steps

It's been one week since I quit my job with a plan to start something on my own, I wouldn't say I utilized the week properly, things are going slow, very slow and I have lazed a bit as expected :), but talked to few people, made few decisions, found source for little income etc etc. I'd call these the baby steps. I know the journey wont be easy, it won't happen immediately, will take time, infact more time than I thought it'd.

However there is a bright side to this 'freetime', I'm reading a lot of books again. Its been quite sometime since I did and I got to finish 3more.

Trying to save every penny I can, yet the urge to eat sometimes gets over.

Not much progress on the 'resolutions' taken in April either :D (Courtesy: http://saaketh-preetham.blogspot.com/2009/04/mid-year-quarter-life-resolutions.html)

For those of you who don't know, I tore a ligament while cycling and had to go through a surgery, so cycling is a distant dream for an year.

I gained a few pounds but still managed to stay 65, so good with that

I couldn't travel or drive for the last 4months, so there was no travelling, but now that I'm doing good have 2 trips planned in next 2months

Almost no chance of touching 100 posts before 31st

Did save 2months salary before I quit, well had to

Best of all I quit, which was in my mind but never thought it'd happen :D


Will post more details about the trips soon.
