Kickboxing rocks!!!

It's almost been 3 months that I have posted something here. No! This blog is not officially dead! :) I have been attending kickboxing classes for last 3 months. It’s amazing. It keeps you fit and healthy. And it’s fun too. And hey, you learn ways to defend yourself. I have started spending more time with my family as I felt guilty earlier for not doing so. I guess this is the best time of the 3yrs that I was in Bangalore .Touchwood! Some pics from class…

Very tired! 'Tired' will be an understatement. I have made a new resolution that I will sleep at least 6 hrs on a trot (Never happened in last 3 yrs or so).Too many tensions and distractions in mind. Never been like this. Thankfully work is not getting affected by all this .Went home on the weekend. Traveled on 5 different buses enroute home. Was trying something new. Will never repeat it. Was left with extreme posterior muscle pain all day.

Akon's lip sync in the IPL closing ceremony sucked big time .Katrina was a relief though :)
Rain is sexy when you are at home .The stray cat who we feed every day nearly bit off our dog's ear. It was defending its kitten that our dog nearly swallowed. All are well now. Was pissed with the stray cat. If not reprimanded, was going to break the stray cat's leg. Was advised that I should control my temper. Nearly lost temper hearing the advice.
On another day, went on a long drive on the bike with the sky over cast .Felt good.
Went around the field with cam. Clicked lots of beautiful pics.
Had that sinking feeling when I was about to leave home. Wished I din't have to leave. Slept like a baby in the bus. Reached safe and sound. Went to meet nephew. Had lots of fun with him. He tried to teach me things which I taught him a month ago. Pretended that I was hearing it all for the first time :)

Decided to get rid of certain negative elements from my life. Some people learn it the hard way .I am one of them!

Cricket tournament in office is coming up. Will be in trouble due to lack of cardio. Have to shed some extra kilos very soon.

Recently haven’t read anything substantial apart from SRK’S interview in FILMFARE.His interviews are really kool as he is an intelligent dude and has his way with words.

Only aim left in life today is to get some sleep. Eyes are half shut. See ya Zzzzz oooon………

Early morning thoughts

Last weekend I watched the movie 'Marley and me’. It was a sweet movie about a family and their life with their Labrador named Marley. Bought back lots of memories. We always had dogs in the family (and I didn’t mean relatives :)) .As a kid they were my best friends. The best thing about them is that they love you unconditionally with out expecting anything in return. The worst thing is that we always end up out living them. People who never had pets probably won't understand this but when you lose a dog, it’s as if one of your own family member died.

Recently, I went through some instances in life which made me realize that maybe I am not that well equipped to face bad situations. Especially the ones where people who are really close to you turn their backs on you for selfish reasons. I never wish ill for anyone. But when someone who is close to you leaves you out in the cold, you get hurt beyond words. Maybe I am not as tough as I thought I was. Or maybe I have mellowed down with age :) .I am blessed with supporting parents who stick with me during good and bad times. And like my dad says,'You don't learn to walk without falling down’. There is a lot to learn from it all.

Raj Thackeray's Reaction to Mumbai Terrorist Crisis

• Raj Thackeray has threatened to beat up the NSG, Army and Navy Commandos if they enter Mumbai again because most of them are Non Marathi Manoos
  

• He also has threatened violence if the Sign Boards of NSG, Army and Navy are not written in Marathi
  

• He also expressed his anger towards the non Marathi media for giving so much attention to NSG, Army and Navy Commandos
  “Where was the media when my Marathi Manoos gang was beating up innocent taxi drivers in Mumbai??”
  

• He has also threatened the residents of Colaba for chanting "Bharat Mata Ki Jai" after the successful completion of NSG operations .According to him they should have chanted "Jai Maharashtra"
  

• He said that he has no problems with terrorists so long as they adapt to the Marathi culture and help him beat up innocent non Marathis in Mumbai. In fact, he welcomes terrorist action in hotels because it will deter outsiders from coming to Mumbai
