Hum Bhi BLOGenge

Hi everybody,
and welcome to another of those ..nothing else to do .. publication online..
a blog by yours truly, inspired with the myriad no. of people flocking around advertising their links to their respective gyaan on the net ..

Blogging.. thats what i have decided to do.. and not to show off any of my non-existent writing skills( may be I ll improve with time), but just to get over the fact that i have.. as already mentioned.. nothing better to do..

well, i start off sitting at one of India's best possible airports - the Rajiv Gandhi International Airport @ Hyderabad..
the flight, supposedly being Jet Lite.. has taken its passengers for a (not so literal) ride.. and informs that there are no vacant seats for me to sit on.. so i better switch over to an Indian Airlines flight that would further delay my travel plans by a couple of hrs.
Just goes to show how weird the domestic Flying scenario has turned out to become after the liberalization has come into effect..my first reaction to the announcement made was.. a rather surprised eesmile.. why?? cos it hit upon me that aircrafts( thank god, just the domestic ones) are turning out to become like the local RTC buses.. pehle aao, pehle baitho.. ( first come, first serve) ..on a ticket that i had booked a month earlier.. the entire upbeat mood of being at a well laid out airport vanished.. and here I am typing into this blackbox...

btw, I am going to Delhi to start a new life.. as an intern, as part of my 3rd semester project @ RPG spencer's. My reporting office is @ Gurgaon.. and I have been eagerly awaiting this opportunity.. with lots of anxiety, enthu, and optimistic outlook..

As i write more.. let me do some self dabba..
I m KRN, currently doing my MBA from Indian Institute of Technology, Kharagpur..in pursuit of many dreams and aspirations, like many a young men, that I have built over the years..(not achieving them wudnt hurt me much, but not trying.. definitely would)

I have had most of my seconds in a life span of 22 yrs spent in the city of nawabs.. kababs.. and many more cliched "items" ( people included )..Hyderabad.. although my cousins would still argue that i belong to the "not so hyd" district of Medak.. which in fact is a part of Greater Hyderabad.. My schooling has been from Bharatiya Vidya Bhavan's Public School @ BHEL, a place where I learnt most of my early lessons..( not just in class, but in life too).Had it not been for the different aspects that we were taught in school I would have ceased to survive in this world.. sometimes over education can be dangerous.. as in my case.. more on that yet to come..

catch up soon..the area manager from jet lite is here.. time to use the lessons on negotiation skills taught in class...

BSNL dataone is real faaastt.. on par with the LAN @ iit.. right now i m
@ a friend's place.. and life cudnt have got easier than this.. get down from Air-India ( tat was the alternative ).. take a cab and land here. it seemed to happen real quick..

one thing about air travel..u get to see how the cities contrast in the manner in which they have been constructed.. Delhi is comparatively well structured into blocks, which is not the same with clustered lights all over Hyderabad.. that really does have a bearing on the economic life of the cities.. an abrupt stop here.. as David Shepard would put it - "thats all for the end of the day"..Stumps..

P.S.: the material published herein shouldn't be judged for its content/grammar/vocab .. since it can make your, as the name of the blog suggests, "Dimaag Kharaab"..
