the resort days

I am in this fabulous resort near the town. Yes, yes it's official trip otherwise i just can't afford the tariff haha :P. From our partners perspectives,this is supposed to be fun as the name suggest otherwise but only we know how intensive it could be. So 3 days here already and I was hoping I could go back tomorrow but now I have to spend one more night here.

Though no matter how fabulous the resort is, but it has worst customer service. Probably because many customers come here and mostly occupied. But whatever the reason, I am not happy. When I arrived here, in email, I was told that welcome drink would be served upon arrival. After me, my colleagues and partners got the room keys, we waited for our drink and the front desk officer said, 'I have already given you room keys, why are waiting here instead of going to room?' That question pissed me off and I hit back saying WE ARE WAITING FOR THE WELCOME DRINKS. I know that sounded so silly but I didn't expect that question from him, so I used my authority to have drink and i DID :P

Environment here is awesome. Peace and serene place. I thought i will go jogging or use gym, but i always feel lazy to sleep till 7 or 7.30 and it's already time for the workshop to begin. Anyway I managed to swim for a while and realized how much stamina I have which was poor hahaha. I swam across the pool once and backstroke twice from breadth. And i was so tired. (Jeez I am embarrassed now). now in the room, killing mosquitoes that came in when my friend asked to open doors for meditation. I love working in my sector :)

Free food, free travel and free resort visits :P

Opinionated

Yes, it's open secret: I am impulsive, blunt and opinionated.
Most of the time I fight with myself to stop from commenting on other's action or words thinking everyone is entitled to their own opinion. But sometimes i just fail, like today.

There was bandha or closure demanding some rights ensured in upcoming constitution.They were advocating their rights to protest. And on fb page of small group compromising people of very same group that announced bandha, i wrote my anger. Then later I read an interesting tweet which tried to paint action of some ISP's to block internet service, thus violating my constitutional right, as bad business practice but not censorship. Nothing, nothing can justify violation of constitution and i wrote back.

Thank god it was only on internet and i didn't meet any people.

now time to sleep!

financial crises

In 2009, west saw another financial crises which forced economy across the world. The crisis was late to reach here, in this part of the world, and i am the sole victim (many would contest this for sure). 4 months back my saving was super strong with nearly 100K. Then now the saving stands around 5K and that too after adding and subtracting all my income (which is quiet decent) and still i have to survive a month. In the mean time I have to renew my internet plan, pay back some loans, do some shoppings and the list is longer than this.

Thinking back, where did my saving go? I don't know where i spent most of my money, probably at restros, cinema halls (turned out i saw quiet no. of movies in this past 4 months). My friends think my expenses are justified as I am known to be quiet frequent Restro explorer which i deny and argue. Whatever the situation, one of my friend suggested me to note down all my expenses and see where i am spending most. Yes, i need to do that.

On different request: can anyone help me get some part-time jobs hahaha.

I am just back from one workshop. For nearly 5 days i was confined to a hotel at nearby hill station: no i didn't even had time or desire to get out of even the gate. I used to go to room, to hall and to dining hall. I didn't see the famous sunrise, the view-tower or the temple participants weret talking about. All that i saw was the misty, foggy surrounding seen from my room or hall or dining table. Yes, i am that stupid.

Except the scene of course I enjoyed following my crush. I noticed he is struglling with shape as his increasing belly would prove that but still got that innocent face and spectacles that make him look super sexy lol. Yes we are now friend on fb (he added me of course) and i loved checking out his pictures.

When i told Sid that there was only one good-looking guy among all those participants he laughed and joked that he wasn't the participant. Wish he indeed was there. I missed him so much at one point of time. Talking about the joke: sometimes i wonder he can't get my joke. Today we were at bakery to get brown bread and he commented that the brown bread is not brown enough and looks like the white one to which counter-guy gave some sort of justification which of couse Sid didn't like. To make things calm i joked that may be the baker didn't burn the bread enough and Sid began to explain me how brown bread is made. And in front the the counter-guy i had to tell him: You hardly get my joke which seemed funny enough for the counter-guy.

Now from tomorrow i have to go back to office which i am dreading. The reason: backlog works. I haven't been able to finish a report which is due since a month. And more work has been piled up and I am acting like they don't exist. Help me God (if you exist), Sigh!
