Men, Coffee and Restroom??


What is it with men carrying their coffee in the restroom? Every single day at work, I find coffee cups either in the trash or near the sink in the restroom and it makes me think.. what the hell are these people thinking? I mean come on.. restroom is no place for someone to drink coffee. I agree not all of them do that.. some would just come with coffee cups in their hands and stroll around and then leave. I have no idea why they do that. But in the end it is still gross. In the beginning I thought there were only a couple of people who did that.. but lately it seems like a lot more people think that drinking coffee in restroom is cool. Oh well, I am going to stop ranting now..will post something kewler tomorrow. Until then, ADIOS.

Me and the Bus


The last few days, me and the bus have been missing each other on a pretty regular basis. When I am on time, the bus is always and late and when I am just a couple of mins late the bus goes in front of my eyes. When that happens, I usually decide that since the weather is nice I will be walk back home. It is a good 45 min walk, but thats the only form of exercise I do.
Today something new happened, I was early and the bus was even more earlier. As usual, I missed it and then had to walk a mile to catch another bus, so I could make it to work at the regular time. It looks like today is going to be an interesting day.. lets see how it goes.

Climate change..


Excessive heat in India
Powerful hurricanes hitting the US
Mumbai getting drowned by 37 inches of rain in a single day

These are some of the headlines that I have been reading since last 12 months and I think Nature is finally striking back at us for disrupting her system. I think this is only the beginning, with polar ice melting, the entire ecosystem is going to be changed within the next 100 years. Some cities will get totally be drowned, while some will face acute shortage of water or will face drought. Good luck humanity.

Understanding Men


Read this somewhere and found it pretty interesting and true..

“In our society it is socially acceptable for women to feel. We can cry, we get all blubbery, we can pout, we get our feelings hurt, we can be scared of bugs and storms and those things-that-go-bump-in-the-night, we can be helpless when it comes to changing a tire … and the more we are these things, the more ‘female’ we appear. But men … poor men don’t have society’s permission to be emotional or weak or have fears or be incapable of getting things done. If a man walked into a club, rushed up to his male friends and started crying most people would think that something was wrong – terribly wrong! Because men just aren’t allowed to cry, or be scared, or feel.

What else does society not allow men to do? Not be a success. For instance, if Sally was unemployed and getting desperately low on funds, we wouldn’t think all too badly of her if she just finally up and got married, letting her new husband take over supporting her. But what about an unemployed man who marries for security? He wouldn’t be regarded with too much respect by our society, as we believe men are supposed to work hard, produce, provide, and be raving successes. In fact, we have come to view men this way so strongly that many men today are very uncomfortable around a woman that is more successful, or earns more, than he does. By society’s belief, and by everything he’s ever been taught – and even by his own primal instincts – he believes he should be the provider. You’ve heard it time after time after time, “no wife of mine is going to work!” or “I feel guilty because she earns more money than me.”

Now, let’s take Sally again. Sally can use her feminine wiles to catch the man she’s looking for. She can shake her little behind, and bat her eyes, and *poof* a man instantly appears to sweep her away. But what can a man do to catch a woman? Can he do the same thing? Of course not! He has to prove he has value and worth as a ‘man’. He has to be successful, be strong, and make women happy. Can you imagine how lonely our men must feel? Whew! They have been taught to be strong; be brave; don’t cry; be responsible; protect; don’t complain; die for your country; provide for your family; don’t feel; chin up; take over; don’t need anyone; don’t ask for help; etc. – and still they are in trouble by us all the time. Wow, when do we give them the permission to be real? How isolated man must feel! Imagine the pain, loneliness, insecurities, and longings you would feel if you were suddenly challenged to be a man. Men have been subdued by their primal instinct and by society. They are uncomfortable with their need to love and to be loved. Not only can he not feel comfortable to express love or allow love, he sometimes doesn’t even acknowledge love himself. He hides his heart, or denies his heart, under a false front of hardened indifference.”

Friday Night


Last Friday night was one of the best friday nights I have had in a long long time. I was actually supposed to go a strip club along with my friends since one of them was celebrating his birthday, but then decided against it since I had never been clubbing in US before. I was like.. let me go to a regular club and then I will move on to a strip club (Thanx Medha). One of my roomie’s friend was also celebrating her birthday on Friday, so they had invited to come along with them to H2O. I was like yea sure.. but then again that didnt work out. Finally one of my friends called and asked if I had any plans and I was like NO. So he was like lets go somewhere, I suggested to go Adams Morgan and then after a lot of deliberation we decided to head there. We reached there at around 11:30 and first bar we hit was Angry Inch.. Now the bar was good.. but it wasnt something that I was looking for. So after a shot of goldschlager and vodka, we decided to go this lounge called ANZU. The place was absolutely awesome, the crowd was awesome.. nice hot chics.. what else could 2 guys ask for. We decided to get white russian and after that got our asses on the dance floor. Now I am not a great dancer.. but I guess when alcohol and music get mixed.. you reach a different level and I guess I was at that level. I guess all cities have generally observed clubbing rules, I wasnt aware of mine, so I was just dancing around by myself. Right next to me, were 2 awesomely beautiful and hot girls. After a while we started dancing together and it was the best time I could ever have. Now before you people think anything weird, there was no bumping and grinding.. I acted like a gentleman. The music at the place was awesome, the DJ even played Aashiq Banaya.. I dont know what movie it is from.. but it was awesome. After an hr or so the ladies decided to leave to check out some other places, so me and my buddy decided to go have Irish Car Bomb. After that we decided to leave and check out this place called Heaven and Hell.. The place was dull.. not too many people.. so after a while we decided to leave. It was around 2 or so that we decided to get some dinner. It does feel weird when u are eating soo late and when u are sort of high. My buddy drove us back and I got home around 4am. After which I was still awake for another hour.. checking emails and watching some movie. Finally fell asleep at around 5 or so.

Overall it was an awesome experience.. I wish to do this often. Next saturday heading out to some new kewl place. I didnt know I had a party animal in me.. I guess it is about time for it to come out..
