Had a great time with friends. Good food, conversations and beer. Another weekend wasted chasing money. There’s so much to do, wonder when will I get to it. Made a few new friends, let’s see how it plays out. Will know in weeks to come.

A post after almost a year. Twenty ten promises to be a fresh start. Clean slate. No more hangups, no more living life in a rut.

Lots of resolutions. Lots of promises. Lots of things to do.

The year 2009 is finally upon us. The Year of the Ox sure does have a promising ring to it. The strong and mighty Ox embodies fortitude and hard work. It is said that the Ox is unswervingly patient, tireless in its work, and capable of enduring any amount of hardship without complaint. Hope the new year brings good tidings for each one of us.

2008 was an absolutely spectacular year. For me it stood more for highs than the lows, more about achieving goals and less about failing. I could have barely asked for more.

In terms of personal life and relationships, the last year left a lot to be desired, although professionally it was everything I had hoped for, and much more. Leading a wonderful bunch of kids, getting an internship despite of messing up (very badly, that too) an interview, and finally, getting a job before anyone else… I have had very few reasons not to smile.

Especially the last one - a job, was something that was very unexpected and surprising. To be the first person (ever) to get placed from the very first batch of a different, innovative MBA programme, from a rather new institution is a feeling quite indescribable. I had heard a moment can change your life, but I never thought I would get to experience it. Getting congratulated and recognized for all the hard work, a culmination of something that you strived to achieve for years together coming together is indeed euphoric. Becoming the most talked about figure in a crowd of thousands sure does make you feel special.

December 15th especially is one day I will never forget. It made me feel like an overnight celebrity of sorts. Best feeling EVER.

To end the year with the very best of friends is to have your cake and eat it too. The very best of house parties consist of good food, drinks, music and above all, great company. For me, the last party of the year that I attended had it all.

Some things about 2008 that I shall never forget: Kerala, Bangalore, December 15th, New Year’s Eve, GG, OTH, Diablo 3, Barça, home made Pasta and indie love <3

Goodbye 2008, I shall miss you dearly.

It certainly does feel good to be back. Roughly fifteen days have passed since I purchased a new address to move into, since my old domain, beautifuldisaster.co.uk died a rather unexpected and untimely death. Lost all files and posts stored on the old servers. Luckily, the Internet Way Back Machine had archived my website a couple of times in between the sporadic updates, so hopefully I will be able to recover some, if not all of my previous posts.

Here’s to the new beginings. Hopefully the posting will be a bit more regular now that I have a clean slate (of sorts). Cheerio.
