Happy Valentines Day guys! It has been 27 years and still I am searching for my valentine, I dont know whether people found me absymal or I am insane I couldn't find a girl in my life till now. All my friends say you need to to try for it, you can't watch and play sports all the time and think that you dont have a girl. May be that's right too but whatever reason I think about this on Feb 14 of every year and hope to be a different next year but itls all the same till now.
Speaking about sports, superbowl XL was one of the dumb ones I ever watched. The way Seahawks played it was like "operation success patient failed" they did everything right but failed to put some points on the board and also we all need to kick Janet's butt. Half time show was one of the dumbest I ever watched. You know what I am saying it all started with so called wardrobe Malfunction. The commercials are not that funny too although I liked the fed-ex commercial very much.
Of course in cricket India won the last two one-days in pretty convincing fashion and as I wrote before its nothing better than a victory against Pakistan. It's great. Btw,, my friends are coming this weekend and we are going on a ski trip and I am thinking it should be great.
Alright, Have a fun day everybody!

Thursday, February 02, 2006
Well as I said last week it's back to regular week after two weeks of buys schedule which include tennis, cricket and Football and to make it worse India lost to Pakistan in the 3rd and final test of the series and believe me its nothing worse than losing to Pakistan. I know people talk about the the rivalaries in sport like ASHES in cricket, Boston-Newyork rivalary in baseball but nothing comes close to this. If you take Ashes and multiply by 1000 may be it is like 1% of the rivalary between India and Pak. We always had great series with Pakistan but this time we got short. I think just one bad day in the last test match costed us the whole series.
But, atleast I am exited to see Roger Federer taking one more slam and making the total to 7 now. But its funny to see him cry in the presentation ceremony. I think of all the qualities we compare him to the great Pete Sampras we need to compare this crying quality too.
Talking about Cricket, I am planning to visit India may be in a month or so for vacation and I am very exited about it. It has been almost four years I have been there and all my friends are saying it changed a lot and I am very exited to see the developing India. It's a great feeling to know India developing and I am positive that one day we all will wake up and feel the way great Poet Sir Rabindranath Tagore have written in his Gitanjali. I just want to mention that great Poem here
Where the mind is without fear and the head is held high;
Where knowledge is free;
Where the world has not been broken up into fragments by narrow domestic walls;
Where words come out from the depth of truth;
Where tireless striving stretches its arms towards perfection;
Where the clear stream of reason has not lost its way into the dreary desert sand of dead habit;
Where the mind is led forward by thee into ever-widening thought and action---
Into that heaven of freedom, my Father, let my country awake.
Well, I am also little nervous of visiting India too. Yes, I think all software engineers who are here working know why. My parents are looking for a girl for me and if everything goes according to the plan I may get married and come back in a month of vacation. Yes you are reading it right, I will go to India and look for girls who my parents already had selected from a bunch of the proposals they got who they think that will suit me and I need to decide marrying one of them. This should all happen in a week, and then marry her and live with her for the rest of my life. Pretty scary Huh, Yeah thats how it is and trust me this is working for decades in India.
I always used to make fun about people doing this way but here I am trying to travel in the same boat. Hmm, I guess we can't escape it, can we. It became so common in our day to day living to get married this way but imagine marrying a girl we talked may be once and saw her couple of times and then living with her for the rest of our lives. Pretty scary isn't it? Wish me good luck on that .
Meanwhile, I am also getting ready for the One day's which are scheduled in few days from now. Hope Indian can come top out of it. So next two weeks atleast should be fun.
Alright, time to get back to work.
