Alcohol is an interesting substance to consume. Personally I prefer hard liqour to beer, cos thats just empty calories man. Not that liqour is a diet food but it kicks in faster and its more fun to order.
Now that brings me to yesterdays events. Went out with some friends to celebrate a girl's victorious driving test. Mixed a bit too much I guess. It was a JACK w/ COKE ( My Fav Drink ), followed by a LONG ISLAND ICED TEA, then a VODKA w/ CRANBERRY and the a BLUE HAWAII ( Thats basically Malibu Rum w/ Pineapple Juice ) .... and since it was 2 for 1 night ............ thats 8 drinks for the price of 4. So finally tipsied out of the bar and we decided to walk home ( we is me and 2 of my female friends ). The walk is about 45 mins .. isn't a good choice when u r piss drunk. Made it about halfway there and then almost collapsed onto the road. So finaly had to get a cab and was dropped home by my 2 beautiful friends. God Bless Them.
Skipped work today and slept through most of the day. Its only now that I'm feeling a lil better.
Anyways all the alcohol makers say " Drink Responsibly " and that was certainly not what I did last night. Here after all the Irresponsible Drinking will be strictly at home.
Asta La Vista.

Friendship
Only Friendship takes u higher ... every day as friends we grow. - from A tamil song
Boyfriends and girlfriends will come and go .. but friendship is for life. - Phoebe from F.R.I.E.N.D.S
Somehow these lines seems so appropriate to me today. I have always looked for the perfect girl ... someone who I hoped would complete me. ( From Jerry Mcguire) But maybe I was looking for the wrong thing all my life. Honestly I think I have some friends for whom I would do anything .. and who would do anything for me. I have always been blessed with some awesome friends and I keep making new ones who make this life worth the living. So maybe that is all I should be looking for. Maybe I was looking and hoping for too much earlier. I should be happy and contented that I have such an awesome set of friends. After all " There is no history of any man who is too greedy and any woman who is too short-tempered ..living a full life " - from Padayappa.
So here's a more enlightened, aware, and happy young man signing off saying .... tell all your friends how much they mean to you ... and u'll have a great day .. and great days lead to a great life.

Mohan's Day Out
WOW ... Jus got back from the Six Flags Amusement Park at Darien Lake and it was an absolutely awesome experience. I had been there before but this time felt way more special .... maybe it was cos of the company or jus the fact that we did a lot more fun stuff this time around .. which brings me back to the company ... so yeah that was definitely it.
Went on all the frikkin roller coasters and it was an adrenalin rush if I ever saw one. And to top it off we went on something called the Skycoaster .... kind of like bungee jumping .... but u do a free fall down and then travel parallel to the ground at some incredible speed ... wondering what would happen if you hit something on the way. It was a super thing to try and I have to thank my buddies for saying ... " yo man lets do it " .
Been out of the house for like 20 hrs straight and the bed looks so inviting ... pity I have to sleep on it alone.
Will post more later. This one was after quite a while.
Cheers

R u Happy ?
Was lounging around my room today and u know how my mind starts working overtime thinking about life and all the baggage it brings with it. Well anyways I realized a long time ago that maybe I am not the ambitious kind at all. I would be happy living a simple life in a small house with a small family. Maybe I'm not the kind of guy who likes to have a lot of money and wants to have his photo on the cover of " Hollywood Celebrity" or " Top 10 Geniuses of the World". The mistake I did though, was to not do anything about the realization I reached. I still continued doing the things that I should have been doing if I wanted to get where other people always wanted me to get to. I'm sure everyone wanted the best for me, but still thats based on what the world thinks is best for a person right. For example ... for a guy doing his masters in the US .. the best thing that could happen to him would be to finish his degree, get a job paying him 80K and a green card in due course. But maybe thats not what makes everyone happy. Or is that I'm not dreaming high enuf or hard enuf. ..... OR maybe I spend too much time dreaming about a simple life ( which is hard to get ) that I'm not getting anywhere with the ideal life ( job, car, house, money). Well for whatever its worth .... if I am in a better state of mind 6 months from now .... I'll definitely have something to write home about hopefully.

hmm .... jus some thoughts
Was involved in a conversation today with a friend of mine .... which got me thinking about something I think about sometimes. One thing which gets me irritated is when a person speaks highly of himself ... boasting doesn't go down well with me and I usuallly make it known .. with a perfectly timed sarcastic comment or with a look that shows how much importance I give to that person in a social environment.
But sometimes I wonder why people choose the other way out. They do not think as highly of themselves as they ought to. This isn't to say that they have an inferiority complex or anything of that sort .. I'm not even going down that alley. All I'm saying is sometimes people are too critical of themselves. There are moments when u need to be that way .. its the way to improve and make something better out of yourself. But sometimes a simple comment like " U look great today " gets a response " Come on .. don't pull my leg " ....hey I wasn't pulling your leg .. I was jus saying how I feel.
This particular facet of a person's personality is definitely not a turn off for me ... cos I do the same sometimes .. in the opportunities that are few and far between of me actually getting compliments ( cos I don't deserve them ... hey or am I being too critical of myself ?? ) .......its just that I wonder why people choose these 2 ways of responding to a compliment .. when the best thing might be to say " Thanks a lot .. and u look great too " . Anyways before I ramble on too much and push somebody's wrong buttons .. i'll sign off with the promise that .... i'll be back with more ridiculous thinking.
Cheers.

My first blog
Hmm .. so this is the fun part .. or so I've been told. I wonder why a person has so many thoughts running in his brain sometimes that he doesn't even remember what he thought about last. But I am not among those people ... more the kind of guy who is always thinking ... but whose mind is blank .... always seem to be busy ... doing nothing.
Since I have the freedom to write what I want and in whatever order I choose to ..... lets continue talking about me. What is it with me and girls ?? Lets be honest .... girls are a lot cuter than guys, wear better clothes, smell better and generally r more fun to be with. Mind you ...I wouldn't be saying this if I was a girl myself ... seeing how most girls over here seem to love calling each other the sweetest expletives in the most endearing manner possible. And I always seem to be falling in love with a new girl every few months .... through experince I have attained the knowledge that it is not called love but just a crush. But what is a crush ? IS it what one feels when one is around a person and thinks ... man this person is fun to be with ... why can't I be around him/her more ? And if thats the case .. then it could very well lead to love.
So prospectively ..... if a person has a crush a year ( more like 24 in a yr for me) , he could end up falling in love about 50 times in his lifetime ( my own count though is Math which is beyond me) .. and any one of those could be successful in terms of a relationship ..... so if he makes a wrong choice ... shouldn't he be allowed to make the choice again ..... After all they keep saying ... we are humans and humans make mistakes right.
Well now that I have realized that this discussion with myself is leading to nowhere ... I will shut up shop and leave with the promise that I will be back with more endless drivel from time to time.
Cheers Buddies.
