Pet Peeves

One more tag..and again..Puneet it is!

X = People/folks/persons (u get the picture ;) )

  1. X who dont reply to SMSes and e-mails. Too busy, u see!
  2. These same folks calling up and mailing you frantically when they 'need' you.
  3. When am interrupted while making a point.
  4. I'm real pissed off when in a debate, X simply rubbishes my points with a wave of his hand and smirks.
  5. X who say they'd call / drop by, but never really do.
  6. Too many questions.
  7. When my sis wants the fan on at a full blast and then uses the quilt!! WTH!!!
  8. When it takes more than 20-25 mins for my order to be served. On more than one occassion,I've walked out.
  9. X who cant make up their minds even after the deed is done. Typical eg. :- Purchase something- come home-think-think-think- go back to the shop-exchange!!
  10. X who judge others by their taste in books/clothes/music/food/TV channel/etc. Preferances can never judge the whole persona.
  11. When X cant take on me straight and use the Bypass Attack technique to get even.
  12. X who make fun of other X's personality/religion/or anything which is a personal choice.
  13. X who cant make a decent conversation in simple english.
  14. X who cant handle a joke. Stiff upper-lipped people.
  15. X who indulge in looooooooonnnnnnnngggggg meaningless small talk, esp over the phone.
  16. Orkut and its bad donut naatak!
  17. X who claim they know me too well. Save three, none can claim that.
  18. When people are judged based on IQ, instead of their EQ.
  19. Snobs.
  20. When US of A is referred to with much reverance. God knows for what.
A new set of bloggers this time around...umm..

I too had a couple of interesting and rather frustrating experiences with such x's. But its better to be blunt and straighforward to them. Makes life a lot easier. It works well too. Helps them improve themselves and lets one have a peaceful sleep without any harsh thoughts and such..try it out.

the problem with such a list is half the time one is left self introspecting..
"Hold on is it applicable to me??me?ME??"

Even though one knows it doesnt really matter in the end :P:P

A Mid-Life start – Down Under – Part 1

I didn’t know there was a template for a blog post in MS word. In the last 2 years, an idea which was dormant in my idea for about 2 decades or so started germinating. It was mostly watered by the birth of my daughter (that sounded weird) It was about migrating to Australia. There was something about this place which allured me. It was away, self-sufficient, least bothered, aloof, didn’t give a damn and it was both ugly and pretty. It was me in a lot of ways. I started the immigration process by visiting those visa consultants (a special mention of a friend, TJ, a discussion with whom helped me narrow it down) and then over the period of the next 4-5 months struggled through the documentation process. Husband complied wherever possible, but was mostly a sleeping partner in the whole process (that’s very unlikely of him, though. As I discover much later that he played along as he wasn’t much keen on migration, but did so on my behest).  Nevertheless, half of 2014 and a...

Dazed

At times I'm a little lost. Something is on in my mind, but I have no clue what it is. Moving ahead becomes difficult coz something is holding you back. Restlessness and anxiety take over. What on earth is happening? I feel like walking alone in the night. Guess that should soothe me down... Hmm. © Zarine.

Personal Branding

I want to separate out the word personal from branding. I think a personal brand is the moment when you start to lie. Focus first on the personal and you beat up all the competition instantly. Just being honest, being yourself, doing the work, applying the daily practice for just a few months, and your personal self will come to life more than it ever has before. You'll be honest with the people around you and that automatically beats all the competition because they’re too slick, too dishonest, too focused on their brands. You’re not focused on that anymore. When you come up with honest, sincere ideas for people, and you give rather than expecting to take, then you suddenly have separated yourself out from 99 percent of the competition. You win. And it’s that easy to do it.
