Book Fair

The book fair is finally over. Thank god because I need a break. I had to work both weekends at the book fair. I haven't had an off day since the Monday before the book fair. I am tired and in dire need of an off day which hopefully I will get soon. I did get to buy many books which I already have started reading. I would read them while I was on duty at the stall since there wasn't anything to be done until a customer came.

I was really bored but I shop for books with discounts, so I had a good time. Except it was cold and there was a eagle and a pigeon flying in the hall.

While sitting and reading, of course, my sub conscience is thinking of ideas and my favorite characters from a tv show. I can't think of full stories but small snippets or ideas keep popping up in my head. I'm no writer so I can't develop them. I try but I get blank.

Maybe someday I will develop them. Till then, happy reading to me.

Moved My Damn Cheese

So we moved into another government house. That meant no internet for a very long time unfortunately.  So I did most of everything on my phone except for blogging.

It was annoying but packing and moving was priority. Then was unpacking. I did some work in office.

I am now a permanent member of my company but I still haven't found my passion. I guess I should get some experience and venture out later when I'm better prepared.

Seriously why can't everybody have a five day working?

The weather is going from warm to cold everyday. And now rain has arrived. Rain is horrible in winter because of the cold. The roads are all muddy and sticky. My jeans gets muddy along with my shoes.

At least the book fair is starting and hopefully I will get some discounts.

New Year, New Life

So, it's a new year and I have decided to do things which need to be done.

 Like I got an appointment  with a career counselor for advice.  I did that and I discussed my qualities, likes and dislikes with my father. I hope they can help me for sake of my future. Also I need to get out of the house more and meet people. Right now, I have no time and energy but hopefully soon I will.

I need to be comfortable in my own skin. Also organizational skills are important for life.

So new tings for the new year. Let's hope it works and sticks.

 

Hapy New Year or Not

It's the new year almost...



I, of course, have no plans to go out. I am watching Sherlock on TV. I do love mysteries and how quickly Sherlock deduces everything from just looking at a person.

I wish I was as smart as him.

The roads will be so crowded with drunk people. I have trouble dealing with drunk people and unfortunately this is what we get tonight.

Hopefully the next year will be a better one. 

Election Day!

So it's election day.

I can finally vote and have my say in who runs the government. I can't figure out who to vote for. I do have the none of above option. Don't know if that will make a difference. At least I can complain with reason about the government when they screw up. 

Life is going along nicely. Still don't what my calling is but working in publishing. I saw this on Facebook today.

I feel so stuck. My brother finally studied the one thing he loves and is good at. Now he is settled in a love. It's admin sales job but is related to food. I wish he could have found a job relating to cooking but it is what it is.

C'est la vie.

Real One

Today is my real birthday.  So here is my present from Google.  I just love it.

Also Happy Halloween from my side.

Rest in Peace Lily and James Potter. It's been 32 years but I still miss them.

Today was good and normal. No problems happened for me at work. Well, I did treat my colleagues to samosa.

Also nani had two of my favorite dishes at dinner, so I was extremely happy.  Except my dad is out of town. But it was either miss my birthday or miss my brother who is coming to visit us. It's ok since when I was in college, both my parents missed my birthday.

I'm so excited that my brother is coming. It's been at least a year since I last saw him.

So I'm having my quarter-life crisis very calmly. I like my job, but I'm not great at it. So either I take a class to improve my skills or change jobs. Oh well, let's take one day at a time with our best foot forward. At least my family supports me.

Birthday and Relatives

According to the lunar calendar, Oct 26, 2013 was my birthday. So my grandmother did pooja that morning and I got to eat my eggs with bacon and a side of suji ka halwa.

I had to go to the parlour for my haircut as my mother pointed out that I was due for one. I arrived late to my job as I had previously informed them about it.

It was a slow day for me since I didn't have any major work that day. Why do we have a six day work week? What's wrong with the five day work week? Everybody had stuff to do on the weekends. I can't do any of those errands because I only get Sunday off. It's very annoying.

I wish I had a job that only required a five day work week. I don't mind working late as a compensation for two days off.

I wish I knew what job makes me happy and where I can excel. These days everybody has so many options for a career. Previous generations didn't and so they picked and worked. I have too many choices and I still can't figure it out.

My parents say it's ok to be confused but I think I'm too confused. Maybe I don't' work as hard. Maybe I'm lazy. Maybe I still haven't found what I'm suppose to do. Let's see what happens at the end of my probation which got extended to another three months. Of course there were projects in progress so that's why it got extended. Otherwise the projects would get stuck in limbo and my boss wouldn't like that.

Today some relatives came over for lunch and my mother's colleague and his family. I was very happy to see my cousin and his wife. There currently since this city since my cousin's job has posted him here for two months. I am also looking forward to meeting my brother who is coming next month for a very short visit due to his visa expiring. He can't take a longer vacation since his company is laying people off and they are short staffed. I wish teleportation or appariting or using a portkey was possible in this day of age. 

Beam me up, Scotty
