LDR

Being in a long distance relationship sucks big time!! Your mood swings become a almost everyday thing!! Chats become longer and boring and you wanna do much more than just saying how much you love your better half and how much you wanna be with them! You keep discussing what you will do and where u will travel when u will return or meet up… It really get frustrating when the most you can do is talk on the phone or online…And it gets worse if both of you are busy people who have to be here and there at any given point of time. And so the saga continues. But in my case this relationship is really important to me. And Its working out splendidly but being the asshole that I am I just lose my cool a few days and I cant control my emotions and lash out!! I don’t know what to do I just get frustrated!! And now as I sit in office I just feel I wish I was in India!! Somehow money doesn’t make a difference when u r all sad and down but looking at the world scenario quitting and then looking for a job doesn’t make sense!! So here I sit doing nothing and writing this blog agonizing and counting the days till I return to India!!! L

Weird Night !!

Ok its almost 5:30 in the morning and I feel as if there isn’t much to do but last night was one of “those” nights !!! Crazy would be an understatement!! I wouldn’t call it exciting either!! Let me see now first we started with me returning from work and then heading to Salmiya and picked up Nigel, Chinmay, Calen and someone else!! We were supposed to be at a party where I was playing for one of Nigel’s friend!! Well first things first!!! We were late as hell due to the fact that the party was in the basement in some obscure neighborhood of Mishref!! And the brilliant planning of these people failed to make them realize that speakers are required to be picked up early but yet after an hour of their party being started they realize that the speakers are not there !! Also we had to get the speakers which again took sometime from Joseph who lived on the third floor of a building with no lift!! And those huge speakers! And then on to the lights and all that!! At Venue everyone had an attitude and all that!! Huge guys with even huger egos who I guess never did a shred of work in their lives!! After setting up all the equipment and playing for some time I realized this is gonna be a shitty party with no one least interested to enjoy themselves !! All had come just to drink!! And to add to the woes I hardly knew anyone and the few people who knew me had abandoned me to go drinking as well!! So I went outside and had a smoke chilled didn’t go inside again!! By this time Shaun and Benson also had shown up! And cutting things short the party was almost winding up and then suddenly the girls parents went to the basement and saw all the drunken bastards!!Oh from there onwards things just kept going bad!! From what I heard later on he did hit a few guys when he reached down and well let’s just say things didn’t go well. Moreover after all of this Vivek had passed out in the basement!!! So somehow we got him into the car!! And drove off and then after 10 mins in the middle of Mishref he started puking like a crazy person!! Eventually somehow we made it to Salmiya and dropped them off at a place called Khandar!! And then me and Chinmay moved to have a good dinner and then to Monty’s!! And after meeting Benson and Shaun and Nigel!! And after having an amazing Cocktail !! headed back home after dropping the speakers at Shaun’s home and here I am writing this blog !! Well it was a really bad night especially after the night before that!!! But things will turn around. It always does !!!

Much needed Break !!

Well the day started with me returning home and then thinking what to do !! I had called Venky earlier and he said they would be out by 6:30 which was fine cos I had to finish some work. And after consultation we decided that I would get Jumbo !! Now the Terios is not that bad a vehicle it’s just very very small!! But moving on I knew there were going to be quite few of us so after we all crammed ourselves in near Al-Raya we headed to Skyzone!! And the pool games began!! And it was soo normal as if we were not in a hopeless country of misery!! Actually felt we were free of all that just a few guys enjoying the night !! After Venky had finished two HUGE plates of French fries and we finished playing we all headed back to the Terios and hit Kuwait Magic which was fine by me !! Venky in thirst for the ultimate vegetarian pleasure indulged in a cup full of chocolate syrup and cornflakes!! And moved on to the new cheesy nachos from Burger King !! Which I loved as well!! Well after that we headed to the beach and popped a bottle of Rum!! And it was yummy as hell!! And I actually mean yummy!!! With the KFC bucket between us the cold beach air and the hard core ribbing of Vivek by calling him “Gossip Girl” it actually felt that it was one of those laid back nights I had needed for some time now!! And thanks to all the guys who made it possible!! A night thanks to gang from FAIPS !!

Well its pretty much official and almost everyone who is everyone know about me tying to knot in December 2010!! Well I can’t wait and neither can she!! And with the work pressure at the office increased and also the MBA starting up I have been away from the blog for some time now!! Anyways I know I have to buy a ring and the last month since Mom and Dad have been away to India doing the whole breaking the news to the relatives thing I was chilling in Kuwait with some of the old gang members and searching for one!! It’s really great how every time my parents leave for India I tend to have more fun!! Anyways I have been looking around for a ring and somehow stumbled across this picture online!! And I was totally amazed by how clever it was!! Also I loved the whole technical aspect I mean the two rings locking in!!! Amazing that someone made something so simple yet so beautiful!! Even if not for my wedding but I am surely getting something like this for sure!!

VERYVERY VERY OLD BLOGS !!!!:P

i am writin in a call to all music lovers .... life with music ... let me tell u about how i feel its something that has driven me from to a shrink to a world where i make my own rules not someone who has grinded his head studying dr lector for 8 years ... well i dont know if any of u have this thing but somehow i have associated music with every part of life...the influence of music in my life .. like the first cd i brought was of peter andre and spent the whole day listening to " all night all right " the first cassette was something of janet jackson ... thanks to dad i listened to abba and begees and of the heavy dose of the old desi numbers ... oh well now coming back i remember the drives i took with dad listening to " suhana safar" on a dark road .. the first time i took stole dads car and listened to "the rokafeller skank " by the great fat boy slim ... tht incidentally was the song i was listening when i drove the car over a divider .. also top of the pops when" dil bole ole ole"was the top and also there was "tu cheez badi hai mast mast" also when i had my first crush the song was " kehte hain jisko mohabbat woh ho tum" ... that was from grahan ....second one was iris ..by gogo dolls well the first moved to many more but there are a few which i wont forget ... there was this song called " only love can break your heart " form the soundtrack of big daddy by white folx and everlast ......then there was "kitni akeli" ," chandneein raatein" and some other favourite .....the times when i used to come to india and listen to junoon and the driver used to think that i was muslim and said so ....when i used to listen to samantho fox courtesy one of my cousins .... then when i had the time in keonjhar i was on a diet of nirvana, limp bizkit thnks to my chacha cos he somehow found those cassetes then there was the "max" life ...u know the max series 1234567 a mix of songs ... then i had somehow started to listen to everything ...yaa also listened to a lot of hindi like there was this movie with lisa ray and aftab something man those songs played everywhere also there was "raaz" my god those songs used to kill me but there was no one to help me fron this agony and then i listened to all india radio for some time cos mausi hosted there ( thanx for everything mausi" ..... then to bhubaneshwar in the pg i lived in i got a good diet of eiffel 65 , tiesto and a hell lot of trance then to the college.... here i got the most important thing i needed " internet" then i was stricken and feel in love for the first time listening to eminem and limpbizkit i still dont know how :D man then there was the time when she went away and i listened to" woh dheere dheere" by abhijeet cos i was at my chachas place and that was all that came on tv ....the frustration was killing me ...then i broke up all i listened to was "cry me a river " by justin timberlake ... then GOD decide to intervene in my musical taste and i got my first break .... i started playing at swosti plaza.. like someone said " GOD is the dj and the world is his dance floor " .... songs i distinctly remember were aisa jaddoo , its the time to disco and dhoom( i hate the last one from the bottom of my heart ) .... there was other thing i can never forget ....there was this regular at the disc and he used to make this very gryoscopic movement with his hips on the dil dooba number ... time came when i met one of my frnds who now is a star of an mms clip these dayz she and me listened to" yeah" by usher and 5o cent "in da club"and " candy shop" that was some good times then we moved to herbal life .... listened to all the trance i9 could get my hands on and some very heavy duty goa also ..there was buddha bar nd some extreme lounge hit me like a cold refreshing wave ..once highi used to call didi and ask her the lyrics to that number from caravan " aaj phir jeene ki tammana hai "..anywayz when i joined mayfair( thats where i work these dayz for the uninformed ) i had the support of a lot of people like my boss and my manager and some very nice regulars who let me play whatver i wanted to " ( thank GOD) .. i treated many people who listened to kucch kucch hota hai and nadeem sharvan to a weekly dose of limpbikit , sasha ,prodigy and linkin park and a lot more .. with a sprinkle of tiesto , paul van dyk etc .... then there was the time when i saw triple x and loved rammstein..... already i was listening to so much music that i thought tht there is nothing or no band which can create a new genre there but along came incubus , creed and flypside blew my doubts away the likes of suketu, aqeel,raghav,rishi rich,jay sean,talvin singh,nasha and the likes are kicking gora and firangi butts all over the world ... man music is something drives people to be what we are ....bad music can kill the mood " amma dekh" can make guy and grls grind themselves all night bhangra rocks as in rdb .... there was dus bahane which was the anthem ....then came luka chupi , lovely kailash kher , there was sooo much i listened to .... pakistanis like strings , ali zaffar and shezaad roy tell us that u can u can hate the country but u can still love the music .....please whenever anyone of you is down or out or jus wanna to chill call me i will prepare the perfect deadly chemical combination and serve it with the right touch till then dont stop till you drop

p.s please listen to mylo- drop the pressure and please if anyone gets the sound track of big daddy i will do anything to get it

Ok its time I actually tell everyone why I gave up music and took up a job as a sales guy !! I was selfish!! And I wanted to do other things !! I have huge ambitions and somehow I felt that being a DJ I could fulfill them but not at the pace that I was going!! My dad has been a gem of a guy and he supported me a lot but I just couldn’t ask him for money anymore!! I had worked for almost a year and a half and I had not saved anything! I just thought if this continued and I kept going at this pace what would happen!! ??? Actually it was the time I was always dead broke also!! And I agree there are a lot of DJ’s who made it and are rocking it but there are tons who didn’t make it and end up with a call center job!! I mean I wanted to be successful and couldn’t wait and also there was a time that I thought that being a DJ was all I wanted. But things change people change and so did I. And I never blame anyone except myself!! I guess I didn’t have the courage and compromised and made it well!! This doesn’t mean that people who want music as their central career haven’t done so!!???And they really had it in them!! I didn’t!! But what really mattered is on the way to finding this conclusion I had some amazing times time which I know not many people can forget!! And I doled out some good music and was good at it !! But las year someone said something which really pissed me off!! He was like dude I play like crazy and have a good time and u just went for the money!! I told him “dude” what u earn in a year is the amount of money I make in 2 months so that works for me!! I might be materialistic but somehow I am happy!! And also I am tired of running around!! And I am good at my job and doing well so regrets there!!Buts sometimes when I hear some “Dj’s” play I feel sad cos I know I am better than them!! And I have a neat Pioneer setup at home!!!:P so the music still flows at times !!!:)
