RIP Vini... you will be missed...

How bad a friend you be if you would come to know that your friend is no more from the web telecast of her funeral...

Sunday morning facebook gave me the shock of a lifetime when i saw my friend vinitha being tagged in a funeral album ‘vinitha aleyas – her last rites’... i hoped and wished that’s another vinitha... but the face of the person the coffin was just her... and i didn’t know how to react... it’s been few weeks since i have heard from facebook or twitter... and i was busy for weeks and weeks... I still have no clue how and why....

Vinitha was one of those people who will be around online when you need... got to know her from yahoo 360... a non-stop blogger... some of her blogs those days sounded silly then, but it was all her... frank person, who will be there for everyone else... Met her once in person, 2 years back, when she came to thodupuzha for some shopping... she was the same person i used to know via her blogs... bubbly and talkative...

It’s hard to believe what has happened... i cannot speculate on how and why it happened... all i know is one of my good friends will no longer be around... i am going to miss you Vini... RIP....

Professionals need to be professionals

Ever since i joined my office, i have seen people talking so much about the company’s professionalism and all... the managers, they never stop talking about what the company expects from you... initially i felt i wont be able to keep up with them... but slowly i realised, its all just the talk or their level of high standard is infact on the lower side...

All confirmed in the annual conference for sales organised by the company... my manager said, ‘formal dressing’... well, ok... i thought... first corporate conference, lets go all professional... i got myself dressed up in a formal suit.... but it turned out, i was the only formally dressed editor there... it was quite embarrassing considering the way my group showed up... even for the party... editors there are considered just a bunch of nerds, i surprised everyone breaking that rule...

I had a long chat with others who worked there before and my cousin... everyone agreed people this part of the world are so miserly... wont spend much for parties or dressing up.... i consoled myself, atleast i acted like a professional.... 

well, next time, my manager says anything about the company’s legacy, i know how to weigh that and take that....

A break from work, pollution... a break from delhi....

Finally a break from Delhi....
Things were getting bit crazy in office... work piling up, me getting frustrated with everything around it.... I need to get out of it before i decide to give up on anything... Moreover the weather in delhi is changing a lot, and usually the change of weather makes me fall it...
So it is the right time to take a break from this dusty city... yes, the pollution was almost getting on to my nerves...
Now its time for some time in beach, hills... boating... enjoying some nice fish... cant wait.....
Kerala here i come.... plz don' rain.... and no hartal....
