A Thing of Beauty

so many beautiful memories...they will all fade away.
All the brightness of the world to fade away, and expose the darkness below

damn it sounds so good to be melancholy! :D
well memories are too faint...gotta catch hold of them and hold on to them tight. so much has happened over these last 2-3 weeks and i have already forgotten most of it.
Sunny got the great job at Octane :)
Met Arpit, Ashish, Sandeep, Abhishek, Sudarshan, Arun, Sarika, Vinayak, Mahim, Soni, Mallu.
Bonded with so many new friends and old

Wrote a small poem, and managed to make it trash by trying to make it rhyme. Well i have tried to salvage it even as i reproduced it here, and i guess it has turned out alright in the end ::


'A Thing of Beauty'

A Thing of Beauty
At once endearing,
but oh! wicked and cunning

She sets out, to win hearts
To be pawned off, when the moments pas't

Sparkling, glittering, Radiant, in the icy cold night
Queen Bee, Queen of the drones,
They all flock to her, mesmerised - A Thing of Beauty

Thing of Beauty
Eyes Glittering, jaw set,
She is out, to win their hearts.
She shall have her way, and her hearts,
win those hearts, for the day.

tales from the dark recesses of the mind

ahh well theres no point to the title - just thought it would be rad :D

todays lunch menu is pizza and chilled wine [mug instead of icebox :D]

i think i have a streak of simplicity inside me - which is great news! i get happy with all the small wonders of the world...lets see how... the last 3 days have been spent doing the sales beat for the wadala distributors of GCPL. sales is a thankless job, btw. i got pretty disillusioned with what i saw because there is hardly any impact u can have on overall sales from the grassroots level that i was exposed to. i guess it will be quite different at higher levels. anyways, i dont know whats the motivation that keeps ppl like varunraj (fo) and sandeep (isr) going...

anyways, back to the beginning, i just liked the whole roaming the city bit immensely. no agendas, no complexities, just being in touch with stark reality. particularly endearing was the image of the dog bouncing alongside a man holding his meat high above its reach :)
no pretensions of good literature now, will just write what i feel like, in as many/few words as i want to. case in point.
