Episode 2: Morning Raga..

What are you saying??

A lot of us keep complaining that we don't have time for ourselves. However the most joyous moments of life is actually not when you have time for yourself but, when you have time for those who love you the most.. fRienDs..

A Story for you..

I keep myself with tight schedules in the week days.. Learning, working, learning, working.. The pedal keeps cycling.. With a lot of efforts made, I still couldn't make it for the dinner with my buddies last week.. On a not so good saturday we tried the plan again.. Just doesn't work the way we thought..

I kept complaining to her that I feel all our fRienDs have turned out to be the CEOs.. They just don't have time to meet up their buddies.. made sad faces, threw some tantrums, rolled out heavy dialogues.. Also in our chat, I mentioned how bored I am, meeting fRienDs at restaurants for lunch, dinner.. Told her that next time we meet, its got to be different.. Gave her some crazy ideas like cubbon park, lalbagh, parade grounds.. She quietly listened to what I spoke and said " I second your opinion".. Little did I know what was running through her mind.. my mistake.. I've known her craziness for years now..

<Clueless morning>

Had a heavy sleep that night.. The clueless morning unwinds a crazy dosage of happiness..
@7am I see my fRienD standing next to my bed. I opened my eyes wide open to confirm I wasn't dreaming.. She kept her eyes wide opened, coz for the first time I hadn't hit her for waking me up that early ;-) I was confused, happy, clueless seeing her.. Two of my fRienDs (Kanchan and Bhargav) had planned this "early morning bonaza" for the rest of us..

Next we ended up at Pavan's home.. It was our luck to find him dozing away at home.. Yeah he wasn't up working.. With Aunty's hot coffee we glued ourselves there for a while chatting about his life.. his job, wifey, gaming,.. Yeah that is pretty much the framework of his stories :-)

It was time we knock Amy's door.. a 25 mins drive which included laughing at the "anjananagar" dude losing his mind and almost crashing his way down, looking at kanchu or rather her driving :-) Amy is the best when sleeping.. Woke her up to hear back "hey kanchu look.. Bomma (Bhargav) is here".. Trying her best to give us a surprise..Healthy moosambi juice gulping in and doordarshan rangoli on tv was perfect to bring the school memories back..

It was 9.30 and Bharath was still clueless.. he was up by the time we reached.. But timed it correctly before he had his morning meal..We the "Unbeatable" wrapped up in Amy's "Beat" and drove down to MTR moments and had the melting masala dosa.. ofcourse with kanchu's taaza tadka stories :) walk on the university roads clicking some snaps here and there gave back the sweet memories of ooty trip in 2008..

This clueless morning raga turned out to be the best one.. "true relations doesn't require your ability or inability.. it only requires your availability".. Thank God!! we still can manage to end up at our fRienDs place without a prior appointment :-)
Just looked up to say thank you and saw the clouds..
It was about to..

bAArishh..
Happy blogging when its raining!!

Successful blogger tip: Create a storyline for your blog.. There is a kid in each of us who wants to hear stories :-)

Episode1: The new beginning

I start to blog again..the comeback I say..

Yeah, I did blog 3 posts in the "Last Season" some 2 years ago ;-) Blogging had ended even before I knew it had started. Initially I decided to start writing in the same xxxx.blogspot.com. Eeeeks.. I really wanted a new beginning.

These "new beginning" episodes come quite a number of times in our lives, just as examples,

- "I have been too lazy these days, I declare that from tomorrow I would get up at 6am and go for jogging everyday . Its gonna be a healthy new beginning in my daily routine". Trust me this "new beginning" is an every week's story for me.
- "Come on I have been coding in the same software the same way for 2 whole years. I am gonna start to think on how to make more business, like the apple way, its going to be the new beginning in my career". Ooops, everyone wants to be an apple these days.. not my fault!!
- "I promise a non alcoholic life from next week. I would give more time for you and the family. It would really be a new beginning of our life..Darling!! On this sunday i'l be back a bit late.. Last JD party". Do you really think that its the last JD party. Ha ha.. Caught you..

Here I am, this is me..narrating the story of my new beginning with bAArish.blogspot.com

Why I chose bAArishh!!

I was searching for some names for my new blogger site and there I go starting to type some favorites like "thunder", "Rainfall", "BlueSafari".. A prompt reply of 'address not available' kept popping. How stupid of me to even try those really common names.

Then I went in for the unconventional way. This time the try was on kannada words like "kanasu", "mungaru", "nadi". OMG!! There are a huge number of kannada bloggers these days. Alas!! all my unconventional thoughts went down the drain.

I decided the word picked next would be my blogger address and it was "baarish". Without much drama I chose to double the "h" in the end to make it available. The double "A" in caps is just a fantasy, by the way my name is Archana Nagaraja, count the A's in it and you'll know it why..

Who am I??

The toughest question to answer, be it an interview or your introduction at a party hall.

For now lets do it this way,

I am just the ordinary woman, going for 8 to 5 job. Sleep + Work = 8 + 8 hours i.e 66.667% of my everyday life. However what I love the most in my life is the rest 33.33%.

I do a bit of reading, playing, music, dance, watching movies/TV, cooking, taking photos, posing for photos, chatting, brisk walking, lazing around, writing here and there.

Thatz like it. Me!!

<<What next>>

Wait.. before starting this new beginning I did google on how to be a successful blogger. I did get a lot of tips which I am going to tell you in the next one..

Now, I know there is another tab of google searching "How to be a successful blogger" in your browser.. or atleast you thought of searching it.. don't lie.. ;-)

bAArishh!!

Happy blogging when its raining!!
