Bit of everything!!

Hi All,


Hope you all doing super! I am back at my office which is kind of weird that this blog dashboard is turning out to be my office. Sometimes MS office too sounds like an office to me. I like to play around with MS office. its fun!! New Resume formats...New Cover letters..blah blah. As usual new year, yup still new year foe..oops for me. We got this new financial year coming up and as I was last financial year's eve..."jobless”, this is what exactly I am this year's eve..freaking "Jobless". So Happy new year to me. The most unstable guy in the history of Indian professional careers. All the retrospective and prospective employers hate me..in fact they are scared of me. They don't need me,  I would be the last employee on earth for them and they still wont pick me, If such a situation arises like me being the lone survivor among employees lost in the tsunami of recession. They won’t pick me..:D

They would rather work with a cow but not with me the "Holy Cow". I don't know what’s wrong with me. I just can't get this right. Stupid. Idiot..NO..Classical stupido Idiot!!

So where we are! I don't know!! I still gotta write something and I hope I get this right as I feel this strong urge to write. So the matter in this post I wanna discuss is first up, facebook. Funny facebook.  Turned my life on its head on several occasions. Great platform!! IF only I could write this on my resume, FB has all the functional and technical skills and also has all the profound achievements of my life and I hope Mr. Mark Zuckerburg reads this and offer me a job. Chances are negative!! Let’s kill my chances, I did not watch The Social Network. I never felt like!! We have these live adventures happening daily on the real social network, Why would I need to see Social network? The other thing I wanna talk about is Hollywood. Damn! What movies they make! I thought when I saw the inception, An epic movie really! And that academy award is just a formality of sort for this movie, It would be all simple like "the best movie goes to Inception".  But what deceptions we have at the Kodak theatre, LA. There got to be some craziest directors out there. And finally I was happy to see that at least the movie was nominated. What competition? They would not make a movie like inception in India in a hundred years and it still does not get the best movie award at Oscars. Pretty Amazing! King's Speech. What speech they had in their movie? I have not watched this movie, did not even care to read a review.  So forgive me about my plot! But here we have a king stuttering the entire movie and sounds like the stuttering speech gave him his oscar. Amazing guys! 
So as the title was Bit of everything, I don’t know where I am going with this! What's up now! Yup the crazy phone calls I get.

The INNER- View Scenario # 1

I am just wandering around my home expecting a telephonic interview call. And the zoozoo network calls me for what I thought to be a innerview call. Its all the songs they are offering me. Can't even play a decent song. The Ugliest and least melodious sounds burn my ears. I say s***.

INNER Scenario # 2

I am roaming at CP with my only boyfriend. Oh sorry! Complications of life! My only friend and am least expecting a innerview call and the phone rings. I check my mobile seems like the zoozoo number something like 97xxxxxxxx. So I just cut it off! I get a call again, by this time I am checking out the hot chickens outside the Kentucky fried chickens restaurant. But I still somehow managed to pick it up.

The unexpected innerviewer goes “Hello Is this Piyush? I am dash calling from dash how are you doing?”

Me,myself and dumbhole- “ Oh! Hello Ma’m! Perfect! I am actually busy. Could I call you back after 5 minutes? Would that be okay?”

The real reason for this request wasn’t me being in CP and being unprepared but apparently a nice girl just offered me a smile. They don’t smile at me in a thousand years but this is the moment they chose. So I had to disconnect.
The next thing I see is that girl is nowhere to be seen. Whoa! Then I call back at the same number! The lady neva picks up! I call the agency which had fixed the innerview.

They say “you blew it son”. Not exactly this way, a bit more decent way. Decent enough till it sounds like an abuse of sort
“You just had a business head from xyz calling you after taking out some precious time of hers after a week and now she wont”, Now you know you are a goner!

I say to myself like I do say manier times these days. “ Jai shree Krishna” Why me? :D

Then I go to fb, Again!! find that person who called me after a bit of research. Damn! An LSE alumni just called me a few hours back and I hung up on her! A NIEC, New Delhi graduate hanging up on a LSE, London post graduate. What courage and Audacity?? But you gotta live with it. Zoozoo guys are amazing and the chickens too. Funny life! I think about sending a sorry message on facebook but that too doesn’t make sense. So by this time I am sure you all had the inner view of my life!! :D

Lets move on! Yup Cricket World cup is on! Dhoni the silent true champion, who silently has won innumerable games for India and now also leading India’s cause for the World cup and  I Still firmly believe that he would get it right in the knock outs and get us that elusive trophy for 28 years running now. He is a great captain and a leader. The only thing he needs to do is fire up his batting a bit and I can only hope! Rest all the luck to my team and my unquestionable and undeniable support, in any case to Team INDIA.

And finally I really feel a bit sad about Japan! Probably the greatest country on earth. They sit on all those natural disaster, ring of fire and had many fires in the past. The ruthless American administration nuked them in 1945. Despite of all these challenges and turbulent past, they always have proved that they are the greatest country. A fraction of a population holds roughly 10% of world's economy. They are no way like the US who have everything IDEAL for them. Ideal country size, Japan is small. No major natural disasters, Japan sits on them. Thin density of population, Japan among the heaviest, US Full of natural resouces,Japan hardly have some, but still what took US the 300 years, Japan does it every 50 years.

I pray to Krishna that they get out of this trouble asap and they would surely. My prayers actually go to the people trapped in the adversity of life. God bless them!!
That is all for now! I would keep you posted on every bits and bytes of life!

जय श्री कृष्णा!

The Fun-Gus and Diva-Stating

Disclaimer: This post has a lot of fungus and a lot of devastation. Readers!! Please mind it!!:P
masala series 2011 part 2!!


Hi All,

Hope you are doing well! 2011 is moving a bit faster than I originally anticipated. But, it’s ok! I am use to this. Now, I feel 2010 was better. I had a vision and which later kept on getting blurred. Now back to 2011, I don't have a vision and I am using Krishna's vision.

I beg your pardon!! 2011 IS SO MUCH BETTER! :))

So no more digression as it is getting difficult for your digestion. I can understand! So here you go!

The Fun-Gus!

As we were kids, we were having all the fun and time of our lives. It was incredible!! But hang on a sec, we were always waiting for the more fun life can produce for us and we were constantly praying for our own ageing.

"Growing old would be so much fun" I remember I said to my friend..um Class 6 it was! He said...”YESSSSSSSSSS..It would be so much fun”. HAW!! How stupid we were then.

Kids are stupid anyways! Ain't it?? But, as the age took its toll our fun kept on decreasing. Yes you read it right. “Toll” it is which we pay every year in the form of ever decreasing mind power on this expressway called life. If only I could put a graph in here on an axis of fun w.r.t age. You would see that the fun would fall exponentially w.r.t to our age. Ridiculous life it gets! Once you are passed your college! You are a complete mess! Trust me! A Complete mess. Now, I feel like going back in to that time when I was in 6th and slapping myself at least a billion times. Oh How stupid It would be again! Perhaps, we still our kids.

What a complete waste of time it would be? :D

So the conclusion I wanted to draw was that it’s more of fungus now than any possible fun. Do not relate the fun and Gus to the urban dictionary. Some people don’t understand the fungus of life. Where they are now? Somewhere in the Pubs of Gurgaon OR vasant kunj. Well, life teaches everyone a lesson in its own way. So, who am I to decide upon those vasant or gurgaon people. :D Well talking about Gurgaon, I had the ultimate masala of my life recently. Spice it is!

Diva-stating!


Meeting # 1

Till this very day, I have been working in small companies. Not even mid-size COMPANIES! Small puny little companies.:D Very bad you know! So, I had this desire to get associated with one of those powerful mnc’s apparently based out of Gurgaon. Gurgaon Cyber city it is! The most powerful bloc in NCR next only to the Govt of India in north and south bloc, New Delhi.

Though, It’s pretty far from my home in east Delhi, Where I stay, So on my first meeting with a company there I decided to use the metro and give rest to my Aston Martin with ever increasing fuel prices been taken in to consideration. I got on the train and roughed up I felt. You know, I am not an MBA and I lack this professional sense and all and I already was dressed up pretty bad. Rest the metro guys made sure that by the time I reached HUDA city center in Gurgaon. I was just not ready for a corporate meeting. Oh interview! Sorry!

My God! You enter the Gurgaon DLF cyber city and you realize why Mr. Kushal Pal Singh from बुलंदशहर are a multibillionaire. No doubt that Delhi land and finance have been put to good use in this small satellite town of Gurgaon. I dint know it. DLF it is!! These mid –size 10-15 storey buildings would have the entire Mumbai 25- 50 storey skyline been put to shame! Awesome! It’s like entering in to a smaller version of NYC.

Oh I digressed again! So I entered in to the office and I had a lady contact in my head. Oh no!
In my schedule it was. So she started to direct me on the proceedings and the hiring process. Meanwhile I was completely engrossed in this beautiful girl standing in front of me. It was like a Diva singing or stating a song or a story so melodious that you felt like “diva-stating”. Yup devastating the effects are. :D

Meeting # 2

This time it was like an MBA hot shot stepping out of his house and got in to his Aston Martin. No chances the second time around! I was brimming with confidence and was shining in this ultimate professional attire I had chosen for this another giant of a company. I wanted this bad! The view of this smaller NYC got even better with my Aston Martin entering in to the area. :p

An extremely ugly looking guardsman would always appear on a scene like this. I got no idea where they come from! As if they are waiting for this moment to pounce upon you and catch you day-dreaming. Well, I was just looking for a place to park my car and they always have a problem. कित जाना है कौन कंपनी ? पहले ता न देखा तेंने!! “where are you heading? Which company? We have not seen you before.” They shouted! This was apparently a company parking or a “visitor parking” only on the permission of that particular company which you are headed for! I felt roughed up again! :D


I entered the second time but a different and bigger company and “Diva-stating” I felt again! Ah unbearable excitement! :D for the interview of course!! :p


Well the conclusion I wanted to draw was that on both the occasions I was devastated. Dual rejection in no time. :D So always stay focused on the target and do not look elsewhere..:p

Recently I met with a person who seemed as if Lord had sent for me. :)) . According to them its not the company value which counts but the value of the person been created! Rightly said Sir!!

Hope you could read this far!

जय श्री कृष्णा!!

Take care and God bless!

Nostalgic Masala: Cricket WCs and Journeys

Disclaimer: Perceive this post as you would like to perceive it. Further I am still to get out of that fantasy mode of life. Strangely though that fantasy has become a reality for me, finally all the cricket records mentioned could be wrong to the core coz presently my memory is quite sore. Also nothing to be imposed otherwise let me be deposed as an so so poor Blogger which I proudly lay my claim to.

Enjoy if you can!! :P


Hi All,

So here we are the moment has arrived. The very moment for which I waited some million or what some billion moments of 2010 and we already are some million moments farther in to 2011. Time just runs away faster than any of the fastest objects made by the any of the fastest conscious of any of the fastest human race in the shortest possible history of fully conscious Homo sapiens. Don't be so fast on time and always take your time!!:p Time also runs faster than life!! Well, who runs faster than time then? Any Idea? Any conception? Any Inception? Any Perception?

Ah forget it!! I promised masala in 2011. So here you go, masala is here.


Nostalgia-Cricket WC-masala #1

Sometime at the end of financial year 1995-96

WHY the term FINANCIAL? Don’t worry this is not some financial news. But finance and the game of cricket would be synonymous after some 15 or what 16 years, I as a very young kid had no clue in '95-96. I was just a 10 year old kid trying to understand the game and we had this premier league which we started at a premier street in our premier locality. Ultimate fun it was. Oh! Straying away from the topics is just way of life for me. Why should this blog suffer?

So My Dad was watching this game... it was the West indies v Kenya at the 1996 wills world cup. Incidentally it became my first cricket match which I watched till the very end and Kenya won against a very formidable West indies. Here you go! My first match. :P

Cricket initially requires a lot of patience. Lot of technical understanding and the full day or some time even 5 days of dedication and commitment. I am talking about the audience only. Indian cricket team at that time hardly had these qualities. So you can imagine how much dedicated and committed we Indians as "audience" are "तमाशबीन लोग" :D. And then the next big thing was the Quarter final at Bangalore against the defending champions and arch rivals Pakistan. I had no idea they were defending champions then!! My dad said "We will lose this game easy, we are a weak team".."It would be such a shame to lose at our home turf" and "It would be difficult to breath and blah blah. So we had Pakistan as our enemy number one in our blood. No sportsmanship when India played Pakistan those days. Infact any day for me. Still!! Crores are with me on this. No losing to Pakistan. And very surprisingly to all, India won that game. And I was hooked. Very next game we had the ultimate shame too and it was aggravated with a poor boy crying in the middle of the Eden Gardens. A precocious talent washed away in tears. He should have had learned from his friend. Who is referred to "God" nowadays.

Well since then I have been enjoying this great game but the only dampener till this day has been NOT seeing the Indian team with their 2nd WC trophy. I hope this 2011 is ours and I have full faith in our leader Dhoni. Leaders play a critical role in ensuring that teams go the distance. Like Kapil, Imran, Border, Ranatunga and Waugh in '83,'92,'87,‘96 and ‘99 respectively. Ponting never needed leadership skills as his team had so much power that it could have or has won any tournament since then. Well to be fair on Ponting, he too is a good leader. But this world cup is any body's game in a general opinion and even the experts would concur with me. Finally I hope this year 2010-11 does not end as a financial year for our cricketers but as an year of great success.

Moving on, Diversion:

Nostalgia-Journeys masala # 2

Wow, what an amazing start I have had to this year. Just few days have passed and I am living such a peaceful life like never before, May be because I have discovered my own Mecca. And it is just a 150,000 meters from where I stay. Well, May be that distance could well just be a 150 "nanometers". One just never knows!! haha Well, The place is “VRINDAVAN”. The Holy Seat of the Supreme Master of everything, or the answer to the theory of everything for a Scientist. And let me tell you that if you meet me OR If you wish so, I could prove it to you that THE SUPREME MASTER was here 5000 years ago, Yes he was here. He is the only God. But this is the world of "One God, Billion beliefs"

FOR me though-->Lord Krishna--> My firm belief!!And I have proven this scientifically. :)) Don't ask How?:P

So many journeys- December 31st pack:5:30 AM

The engine of the Aston Martin was roaring but the operator of the engine was snoring. Well how come? FYI, No matter how much comfort my bed could produce for me, but my sleep could always reduce me. :p.
A frantic call from our Iron uncle was enough to wake me up. With his customary efficiency he had ensured that the Aston martin was loaded with 5 ppl including the operator and the journey had begun. Iron uncle would make us scramble to pack all stuff, almost abducting us and would consistently ask me to speed up on the highway to ensure that we reach the Holy seat on time. And Within 3 hours we were there.

And then arrived, the rare moment of lucidity and the God presented itself, The only dimension of all dimensions. The Supreme power! and I latched on this Great opportunity. PEACE AND FULFILLED I FELT. My senses felt refreshed after all the torture they had suffered. In India its assault on the senses, can be through some bunch of corruption stories, bunch of insanely stupid movies being played on the screen. The munnis sheilas and of course the bunch of personal tragedies been inflicted on my senses on the very daily basis. Like career, friends etc etc.

Anyway, the next few hours went chit-chatting, and catching up on the latest in life was great. In keeping with the tradition of the visits to the Supreme we ate at असली पप्पू ka dhaba while going and असली प्रकाश while on our way back. Also a lot of temple and sightseeing in Braj. And do not ever miss the lassi just outside the main street of banke bihari temple.

By the time we reached back home, the year 2010 was in its dying stages. And the icing on the cake was that 2011 had arrived. :))

Hope you had a fab START to 2011!
God Bless!

The Super Conscious Or the Super Mario ??

Disclaimer: Below post contains some excerpts from my private diary. But readers discretion is not required. :P This is my last of non real masala/fantasy series blogs. I am tired of them. Masala sure would be back next time. Though some of you might find the ultimate masala in this one. Also the game topic discussed herein find its origin some where on the WWW. And finally it is just my perspective and not to be taken seriously.
Enjoy!!



Hi All,

This is December the 15th and not many days left for 2010 to RIP. Now, I have decided to look back just for the last time, but all in a positive light and see what happens. 2010 probably has ended all the negativity in my life. The excitement of living on this planet just keeps on increasing. But is it the material excitement OR the immaterial? Time would tell..well getting back to the "matter" at hand..In one of my previous fantasy posts I had talked about the Parallel Universes. Who am I to talk about it? Actually, The great particle physicists on this planet are talking about it. It is actually a very crazy sort of an idea or theory. Very Crazy...All most unbelievable. For them this answers.. "How Universe was formed?" but for me it had a different meaning and it was about my life or the lives around me. But NOW to me.. its highly absurd!! Ah RAY..diculous!!
Let me tell you about a couple of things I am researching these days..Just kidding!! I do not do any research..its just fun for me. But you may wanna take this as a fun read or something serious? Well it actually depends upon your personality as discussed in my previous post.:P

Imagination part 1
# The Super Conscious


Imagine a person "A". "A" is living his life and living it quite well. He is quite sure of himself. He knows where he lives and he knows where he comes from or gonna go. Very interesting!! Quite a chap!! He is the real James Bond. But may be not! He still possibly does not know where he actually came from. Who created this Grand Universe? So, he wants to know this Universe. Oh! What a great burden on this poor chap? What pressure? What mental tension? Now how do he knows even this much and how can he dare think about finding the reality of universe? Now one OR I would say that he is aware or he is conscious. Correct! That is the Holy grail!! We all are conscious including Mr.A. Its because of us, that this great material universe has such precious value.
Now imagine if he was not aware about himself. Imagine no conscious. What does this results in? Well the implications are quite bizarre and strange.
In this scenario he actually lives around just like another animal would. With out questioning anything? A very simple and plain life. Wonderful..Now he does not have to be a James Bond. Quite a peaceful chap. He does not care about this Universe. Now all of a sudden! What value does this great Universe have? Well now its ABSOLUTE ZERO. "0". Sorry the grand Universe. You actually have no value with out our Great conscious.
Now, what is this super conscious?? Well, I leave this for you and your personality to realize it. Sorry to put this burden on your conscious..I never meant it...or may be you still do not care and you lack the conscious. :D

Imagination part 2
Super Mario!


I loved this game. 12 years ago! I had a huge brawl with my parents to get me a video game such that I could enjoy this great 2d game. Probably the all time best game! They agreed and I enjoyed..:)). Some one created this game. The one who created it is the Original Mario! So many Game lovers on this planet. Life is just a game for them. No No! focus is on the game. Now there are so many games being created much advanced than this 2d Mario. We keep on creating them. Some of the theories in the western world suggest that a time would come when things could get strange. There is some Moore's Law which says that computer processors double in complexity every two years and so does the computing power. So much better and better games. Now what is in there? What is inside the mario game? Probably another Universe? A universe of ZERO value? Some people now believe that they could possibly some day make it as valuable as our own Universe. Now, Suppose we made it a conscious world.

Height of Imagination..:D

Now herein lies the fun part. Now imagine that Mr A again. He is playing the game of mario and enjoying it to the fullest. Now he is not the original Mario but you can say an Avatar of it. It was his will that he decided to play with it and all those in there. Some one goes against him and Do you know what Mr A does? Simple! He kills him or he makes his life the real hell. Damages beyond repair. May be that character in there can make it up with this avatar. May be he can exercise his conscious power to convince the avatar that he alligns himself with this avatar OR this World OR this Universe. Now what happens? Mr A makes his life as rosy as anything. Everything is so beautiful and so much peaceful now.

Now, Concluding!! So, Who is the real super Mario then? Well, I leave this burden again on to your conscious to find out. HAHA

Hope you could read this far! I promise masala next year. My life is about to get so much happening..:))

Happy 2011 and Take care!!
