Farming crops at Farmville Sunday, Nov 15 2009 

I had almost abandoned this blog. Some personal encounters, busy schedules had kept me too busy for a while; well not for a while but for months. And a lot happened in the mean time. I have had the Puja vacation, went out with friends, had quarrels and fights with family, and guess what…ultimately changed my job!

Yeah! its that time of the year once more, when you quit your company and settle for another one. Well, don’t get me wrong! I’m not a job hopper but off late I just changed a few companies. This time I”m looking froward to a long term partnership :)

Now believe me, this just took a lot of efforts. I had to study, upgrade myself about my work, search for companies, forward my CV and appear for the  interview. Simultaneously I had to fulfill my responsibilities of my the then company, meet deadlines and this whole thing beat the crap out of me. There’s still a lot way to go and I already fill exhausted. I just need sometime to relax and finally be with myself. So guess what I’ve stared playing games. Oh! its Facebook games. what did u think ?

I’ve been playing Farmville a lot. Its one of the most popular games which revolves round the idea of building a farmhouse. It is a premier online game introducted by Zygna Games in the form of Facebook application.  For playing the game you need to add the application and then you’ve got to add few neighbours (friends) who can send you free gifts that would help you in the process. You would also give them a free gift back. Now you are bestowed with few coins which would help you buy crops and plow them in your farmland, once you are successfully able to harvest the crops, you are rewarded more coins. However if you fail to do so, the crops get rotten and you are left with nothing.

The more you participate, you gain an experience level and more you are able to buy more seeds, decorations, barns, trees, and even cattles. The soothing background music makes the game all the more captivating.

Now the question is what do you get by doing so ? Well, an interesting engagement and the feel of being with nature even by sitting in front of your PC. Other interesting versions include Fishville, You-Ville, Roller coaster kingdom and more. So guy what are you waiting for ? Play Farmville now @ <a href=”http://www.facebook.com/”>Facebook</a>

Kolkata Bloggers’ Meet ‘09 Tuesday, Jul 28 2009 

The day began with a silent note. There were very few buses on the road; unlike other days the traffic was low and I reached office early in the morning. As I had begun with my days work Anirudh just pinged me. He’s been a long time friend of mine… we worked together in my previous office. And guess what…I was invited to join the blogger’s meet to be held in Salt Lake.

The idea was impressive…though I won’t be able to attend the meet-up due to some personal reasons, I guess it in itself is a great initiative which would provide the Kolkatan bloggers to talk about their individual experiences.

The online marketing industry made its way in India a few years back and being a part of this industry it does make me proud that my friends have taken the initiative to get together in a summit ,express their opinions and share experiences in the path of their blogging journey.
I just wish them best of luck! Get together, grow and move forward.. full speed ahead!

Election 2009 Wednesday, May 13 2009

election_in_india

Hey.. all cheerful people out there.. today I’ve a reason t be happy. My blog has gained a Google Pr of 1 !!!!!!!! GOD!!… even miracles do happen!!
PR of 1 with only nine posts!…Well I guess only Google can tell why they decided to honor me like this :)
Lets not dig into details of SEO.. and accept this present graciously :)
Well apart from that I’ve another reason to smile. I just got off from my office for the election here in India. This time I’ve decided not to forgo my vote; I would go to the nearby polling booth and cast it to someone. Frankly I don’t have much idea about political parties. I guess we don’t really have any politician today who is HONEST. And I don’t judge a politician on how much honest he is. He should be just honest enough so as not to squander the treasury box of India. Even that is a big deal!! From my viewpoint, I don’t really mind if a political leader does some snow job that would help him maintain his position. I don’t mind is he resorts to some politically incorrect means to achieve an objective. I don’t mind if he is a little snobbish and gives a cold shoulder to subordinates.

I believe an cunning fox makes a better leader than an honest fool. I look for someone who is diplomatic  and can run a country iron-handedly. And obviously my choice differs a lot from several others. You must be wondering about who it is whom I’m gonna give a thumbs up :) Lets not dig into details.. Keeping my fingers crossed…

Love Actually! Friday, Apr 10 2009 

Sometimes I’m really curious to know what the purpose of a blog is. Is it about rambling ALL your personal thoughts? or is that more of a tool where you want to project yourself the way you want others to receive your personality? What I mean is that basically we blog about only those incidents which we particularity to share with the world; while there may be several other which are better kept safe within our own hearts.

Anyways, I’m not really sure if I would blog about my ALL of personal thoughts. Perhaps there are some things which I won’t feel like discussing here…after all the blog is a reflection of me; not me entirely :P

Today I want to talk about love. Yeah, its too personal; but to some extent it is generalized too. When it comes to my love, it is personal; but when we talk about love as an emotion touching every heart, there cannot be anything more generalized than that. Let us talk about that generalized aspect of love.

It is something we hear of in childhood; mostly in movies and Agony aunt columns of weekly magazines. Then just as we step into teens we start drooling over some dashing hunk starring in Television soaps and very soon the reel life guy is replaced by some real life cute and amicable guy who starts residing onto your dreams. Am I talking too much of looks? Well, I guess it applies to most of us. Until a point of time, you lack the ability to judge someone beyond his physical traits. And the way that person admires your beauty also counts. You loved it when the guy you secretly admire sweeps you off the feet with the killer looks of his eyes :) As you remember it often, you find yourself blushing with smile. And slowly you start feeling that he loves your  beauty and also YOU.

Well, the same saga rules even in later years. You cannot help feeling beautiful when the guy of your dreams showers you with compliments. But slowly you start differentiating between love that is full of admiration to the love full of care. When someone admires you in love, he admires you beauty, may be some bit of your personality, your thoughts and long for your company…but a number of love stories comes to an end on that point. It doesn’t culminate to that level of glory when one forgoes his own happiness for love.

And when it reaches that point, you start to wonder if you have had ever been in love before. It is a kind of love which can not be put into words. You are again swept off your feet; but this time by the love and care of the person. And you find yourself caring about him too.  Sometimes, it might just be friendship and not on be “LOVE” on the other end; but it doesn’t really matter. You love the person unconditionally. You start caring about that person. It does not matter where the relationship takes turn later; but the love that has touched you once bears its fragrance for a lifetime.
