I have one nerve left and you are stepping on it.

After struggling with the crappiest data I could ever receive, I finally used my authority and sent it back to its origin to be cleaned up, before I begin any analysis. I feels strangely powerful. A feeling akin to catching hold of an ant who gave you a dirty red blotch on your arm and realising that you have the power to e whether to squish it or let it go.

My favourite uncle - Uncle Murphy (of the Murphy's law), has been acting up on me. The days couldn't have moved slower. I am still 2 and a half weekends (not even weeks!) short of leaving. To top it off, I have work too. Then some weirdly misguided people in my life choose to irritate the crap out of me. I wish I could just tell them - I - DON'T- CARE in a way that it hurts no one. But we must keep up pretenses for the sake of it.

Its an endless wait from one life-changing moment to the another. Now that the job hunt is over, I am waiting for the next change. What next?

And where the hell are those people (called friends) who are supposed to make life easy and enjoyable for me? Show yourself dudes!

Time to move on and a lot of hope!

I am finally done with Hyderabad. Its now time to move on to Gurgaon. I quit! And for some strange reason its such a liberating feeling. Also despite being aware that no one is indispensable, reactions to this news at work gave my ego a good massage. Me likes! :-) May be as I grow older and get used to this professional life, I'd take it more graciously. But as first experiences go, I am quite gleeful at having got such reactions of dismay and sadness.

Not quite surprisingly, I found myself strangely disconnected with the people around me here after Dodo left. Also, I have had the absolute misfortune of being surrounded by few of the most shallowest people I'll probably ever meet. Despite my limited exposure, I am sure such people are in abundance everywhere but thankfully, I had managed to stay away from this breed till I turned up here. Now am just glad to get away from this lot! Though I'll also leave behind some great memories of my first job. But that had to happen some day.

Hopefully, the future holds more fun, and with better people. The cloud of hope is a hazy grey...not quite dark, but not bright blue either. The silver lining however is SS, my hostel room-mate,classmate, one person I probably miss the most from college and her promise of turning up there in Gurgaon by December. I am probably counting on her more than I realise right now. Somehow, the prospect of one known-face to come back home to, makes the task of changing this state of inertia less daunting. 

On the bright side :) I have never been to Delhi (I am sure a 2hr halt at the station doesn't count :O!) and am very excited to be able to finally see it! And while I haven't yet managed to see either Charminar or Salarjung Museum or even the famous Golconda Fort in Hyderabad, am more hopeful of being a lot more touristy this time around. 

Now one more month to go...
