Fun @ Work


I am extremely bored today. The basic reason being that I spend 8 hours in office and there is no fun. Before I joined work (years back) I thought "it would be fun" but as years passed by I realised if you want to have fun then seek it outside the office.
I know working is not always fun and neither work is. But atleast coming to work should be fun. In my current workplace fun is only a word that exists in a dictionary. No team lunches, no going out for drinks or coffees...nothing...
I am very passionate about fun and it's one thing I never want missing from my life. So why not have fun in my own way... Atleast I have taken a step towards it by leaving on time and not just hanging around cause others are spending some of their precious time in the office without realsing what they are really missing.
And today I'll treat myself to a nice dinner of soup and salads :) :) :)

Thought for the mood
"Oh, you hate your job? Why didn’t you say so? There’s a support group for that. It’s called EVERYBODY, and they meet at the bar."
(My team does not even do that)

Discovering Myself, Maybe...


A lot of times when I sit and think about my life and situations that affect it or people who make a difference, I travel to a very different world of thinking. It's not really an introspection or any kind of evaluation, it's just looking around or just coming to a stand still and imagining what is it that I really want...

It's strange how I swing between wanting to be extremely professional on one side and beating everyone in the rat race and on the other side leaving everything wordly and disovering a new life for myself free from materalisim- a life where I choose to live the way I want to without any social influence...

But eventually I also know that life is all about the choices you make and I might as well balance things out rather than operate on extremes... More so not cross bridges before I reach them...

Life goes on with time in its endless flight... sometimes I will run, at times walk and at times just sit and enjoy...

Thought for the Mood
"Life is a process of becoming, a combination of states we have to go through. Where people fail is that they wish to elect a state and remain in it. This is a kind of death."
(I tend to forget the 'combination of states' part no matter what mood I may be in; when I am extremely happy I forget I'll have to face tougher times & when I am very sad I forget that there will be a better tomorrow.)
