More from school days

I got my poems from schooldays scanned in so I wil publish them in batches when I get time to sort them out. Just remember these were written was when I was a kid of 12 to 18 so excuse me if it seem dry/obvious or too stupid. They are too precious not to share anyway.

When I decided to put all these in a collection Here are my dedications to my mother and father



Before that they were scribbled on the edges of notebooks, exam papers (coz there wern't enoutgh to write as answers I had enough time to scribble away after submiting the answer sheet) (*_-)

Here is one like that written after an exam:

Collection of random poems

Life is a bliss

Life is a bliss

when happiness flows
along the path of life
but when in dispair
it turns hollow
and rains all sorrow
 

Farewell Nishu  

Smilling and Laughing on the lawn
Like the sunshine at the Dawn
You were a blooming flower
bringing joy at the lunch hour


With heaps of tales to tell us
Keen ears that always listen to us
Sparkling with a light of your own
We'll miss you when you are gone
 It is not a good bye really
but a see you later honey
making sure you stick by
skype and Facebook to say hi

The Post that aint gonna be published!

well I think this is a first, me writing about the oposite sex, well not really a first think I wrote a very brief note about it a while back (2-3 yrs). Also I have not decided if I am going to publish this yet either.

So here goes. Like the guys sing sometimes about girls, even for girls it is the same you need a guy to live with. The thing is the human species are made to live togather, they need the support of the other at least that is what I see in the world. For a lot of reasons phisical and mental.

Make me wonder why am I writing a post as this, I gues because I am seeing a lot of people getting married and having to be a brides maid for the second time is also taking it's toll on me. So here I am typing away what I think about marriage & relationships.

Marriage or a relationship is essential in life for the majority of people in the world. Rest of them join the monanstry at somestage of their life. But when do you know you want to get married, why would you get married, who would you get married to? these are questions I try to figure out answers at times. I mean personal reasons of each individual to come to that decision.

Mine would be .... sorry guys not today ... I am still thinking why I would get married. I guess that will also depend on the guys I am getting married to (to an extent).

But one thing I know for sure, I will never get married because I have to, or because I am getting older and my mother is bugging me to, or because all my friends have gotten married and I am the only one left. I should need to get married to the person I am going to marry. Who that is... I am yet to discover it myself! and a harder task than that I am yet to discover. Me being me I have loads of doughts and fears that will take it's toll on me and the people surrounding me. It effect me and drive away my prospective suitors (Hehehehe).

So the down side of this is that I might never find Mr Right. I have a back up plan if I do not find my soulmate in this life time. A load of plans. But the biggest question is if I will be able to endure it? So here I am waiting and jotting down my thoughts which I might never publish!

Pros n Cons of having worked as a CSE!

was just thinking about this and thought I had to put them in to words!
These are applicable for phone conversations mostly!


Pros


you don't show emotions in the words when talking to people on the phone!
You make life easy for the people who are talking to you, by using the right words, making them feel happy, even if it is your x-boyfriend who you want to hurt!


Cons
your are not sure If you read the right emotion from what you heard!


You give call coaching to the customer service representative of the phone company or the bank when you need to get details about your account
Your hear every single mistake they do on the phone
you sound like the sunshine when you feel gloomy and want your friends to know it!



Life - is wired
I thought I loved it
but now i hate it
will love it again tomorrow
Why ...........?

First in 2012

Well not really the first but, I wanted to start again, coz I missed writing, whining about my life, and everything else too.


Any how, in a brief, since I've been gone, I changed jobs twice, first job change turned out to be the worst job experience I've ever had. Every turn of the head will bring about 1000 different problems, with a boss who was more insecure and undure of himself, and doughting you at every move you make, thinking that you are upto no good even if it is obviously for the best of the company, it was utter touchure. I had to watch my back every second of the day. I learnt how strong I can be, discovered the businenss woman in me and realised that I do not want to work in a place who dought me.


Now I am in a different kind of a delima, still wondering. Although the place is way better than the previous place and I have freedom "comparatively". Yet I have a dought, it is that same dought that kept coming at me before I made the first move. So what should I do? am I in the right place? how would I know?


Like always I am stuck with a load of questions about myself. Who am I? What should I do? and Where will I go?


So I figured to let these questions lie about while I write about it maybe this will help me figure it out. One thing for sure though, I have devieated a lot from the path I set out to begin, and I will never be satisfied until I fall back in that path, Ill keep on being restless about everything I am doing and dought my ability in doing them. Which will inturn end up giving poor results. The last thing I want right now.


Oh no this is a very dipressing post, sorry guys! I dont like having dippressing posts on my blog prefer them to be cheery and funny. Give me some time and I will get back to my old cheery self and find something interesting to tell you guys about.

She wants to be happy!

everyone think of her
cute and innocent
she like it that way
want to stay away
from the cruel big ones
under shadow of parents
but....

the world will not let her be
it will give her fear
worry to be with her all time
sorrow that burry her in tears
hurt always lingers around...

What can she do?....
Where should she go??
Will she survive
With all the gifts from the world

She did.. does.. and continue to be
she look back...
wonders...
cute and innocent still, is she??
play, laugh and dance can she??
was she happy??
Will she be forever??

What is Love?


This was my comment on a friends post and thought it came out nice! hehe :D
"Love is friendship, caring enough to want another person happy it is everywhere and there are many forms of it too, love for mother/father, brother/sister, friend orr..... it could be a person you want to share your life with, all your smiles and sorrows, anything and everything important to you or any thing not important. You maynot know it when it is there, you cant touch it, smell it. But you will always feel it, and it will make you happy to feel it too. At least that is what I think love is all about! does it exist in real life? I think so!" What do you think?

A wish for the End!


Think I have one wish
Feel it ought to come true..
Cant take it no more
Why I know not!
This aint true...
Admit it I cannot do
Yet I have a wish
A wish to end it all
A wish to cure the pain
like a bird with no brain
I struggle with the
Wish I have
It give hope in a way
To take it all
To bare the pain
To raise the brain
TO erase the past
To lay the path
Yet.....
The coming true
is an action I do
This I can not do
Call me a cowerd
Yes I am
will not pick up that knife
nor the pistol
jump in the river
walk to the sea
fear prevent me
keep me stuck here
frozen in my seat
wishing...
just wishing
That Death walk to me
as I will not to him....
Because...
it is the wish
of the end for all
A wish for Death
is my Deathwish!

A thought of consequences!

A thought I have
it cannot be said
it cannot be written
it will not be painted
what should I do
tear it away and dump it in a bin?
tuck it away deep within?
and not turn that leaf again?

but
nagging me it comes back
pinching me ever so lightly
refuses to be binned or tucked away
the thought is just there telling me
"Idiot, I am never going away, why do you bother?"
I give up and let it be

yet
I can live with it
with consequences

Me and my Creative Dream

I remember being asked what I wanted to do and I answered that someday I wanted to incorporate creativity in everything I do. This was about 6 years back and that time I wanted to sound cool, also this idea was something like window shopping, you know when you see some thing and feel that it would be nice to have. It felt nice if I could do it.


From that to today there were times when doughts arised about my creativity, but I felt it in me all the time. Today creativity is why I earn money. Creativity is what make me happy. Creativity is how I escape through tight spots. I have creativity incorporated in my life in a ways I did not forsee that time. I have not fully realised that dream yet. But I see and feel myself being lead there. Thus I am in a way satisfied with my life today. With all the ups and downs in it. Although I have no idea what is instore for me tomorrow!

Waiting!!!!


It was a very long wait..
A life time to be precise...

Got to wait just a lil bit longer...
Hope I’ll survive the ordeal...

What is multi-tasking? Can I multi task?


Now I thought I knew what multi-tasking is, but then I successfully managed to confuse my self resently! So I thought I must share this thought and confuse all of you in turn! [Sorry about that could not resist it]
I can do a wide range of work as in where ever I go I find myself doing almost all the types of work that would be available. Which does not always classify in one category. So I have been called a jack of all trades quite a few times. This made me think that I can multi-task.
But.......
This bit of the story I sort of knew before but it sort of ... hit me on the head resently. I was really concentrating on some thing and some one wanted to ask me a question, well I didn't hear her until I was done with it and my brain came out of totally. The point is that when I concentrate on something really heard I don't see or hear any thing. But this is also conditional, Say all I have to do is copy some information from one place to another and there is a requirement to keep on doing this quite a number of times. This is a time when I can talk to people get invovled in the conversation going around. But say doing this write up or some other task demand my full attention I don't even know if I get killed on my seat.
So what does it mean? Can I or Can I not multi-task?
What do you guys think?
Can you multi-task? What do you think is 'multi-tasking'?

Title

Well I am in a mood today! Good? Bad? I have no idea. It is a wired mood. I feel good actually as if I am strong enough for anything. This is a step up from what I've been going through lately. What to do when people don't operate on the same wave length as I do.

So here I am writing after a very long time. I've become philosophical lately. I've always been a bit of it. But recently Ive seen how much I can go. It is so annoying. I've got an explanation to everything when, all I want is to crawl into my dismantlement and mope. But no I have to know exactly why this is happening to me and understand it perfectly and tell my self that I have to do the time when I have to do the time. Annoying ha?

Well I should not be talking about all that today, when am actually feeling a lot better and a bit extra nutty. Or may be I should share a few views of mine with you. I think not not today my writing mood has passed. Starting to get sleepy.

Booooo!

Randome lines

Think hard! why? Think clear? better! Harder the thought is unclear it gets! NOT TRUE ALL THE TIME, but is easy on the brain when it is just clear, coz am having a headache off thinking hard ;)

Depression, is a form of self pity, annoyance, disappointment, hopelessness and a lot more, however it made me sleepy last weekend. Sooooo annoying.

Easy life? Easy Target to hurt! Hard life prepare you for the worst! But Hard is HARD!

Is free Lonely? or is LONELY FREE? does everything good and bad have a price except for lonely? why? coz it makes life interesting?

why does everything come at full speed no breathing space! to the extent of losing count of where you are in life! but nothing happens when it is a boring life same ol same ol.

Conversion to become a business women – 3 weeks!

How do you figure people out? How do you know if they are good or bad? First impressions are not always right! they can be forged!

THIS HAS BEEN MY LIFE for the past two months (coincidentally I complete 2 months on Saturday)

Catering Tips

I was browsing for a few tips online to share with you the other day for the office blog. Take a look at what I found!

http://www.eventcateringideas.com/selfcatering.php

8 Self Catering Tips

Planning any event takes a lot of work especially if you are self catering the event. Shopping, cooking, decorating and general organization can be a full-time job. Depending on the size, you might need to rent cooking equipment, tables, chairs and even a tent. If there will be entertainment you might find yourself scouting out disc jockeys or a band.

Although it's a lot of work, catering an event can be very rewarding and doing it yourself can save a lot of money. Here are eight self catering tips that you can use to make the job easier.

1. Organization. You want some sort of a system that allows you to easily access everything you need for the event. This includes lists and notes which might be organized in a spreadsheet on the computer as well as the supplies that you will need for the event which should be kept together in the same area.

2. Make Lists. When you are self catering any event, lists are your friend, you want lists of contact information for all the people helping with the party as well as lists of the invited guests. How about a list of all the equipment you need to rent? Of course a list of all the food you have to buy is a necessity as well as the supplies like tablecloths, napkins and dinnerware. Don't forget to make a to-do list so you can check off when you've accomplished all the other things on the other lists.

3. Make a menu. You want to figure out everything you are going to serve from appetizers to desserts and don't forget to include drinks. Then you need to figure out all the ingredients that you need to make the items that you won't be buying pre made. When making a menu, take into consideration any food allergies or food preferences that you know the guests might have.

4. Shop around. Once you've made your lists and you know what you need to buy, you can save yourself some money by shopping around. Go to your local Sam's Club or bargain club and compare prices. Don't be afraid to look online where you might be able to save money especially for things like decorations, napkins, imitations and dinnerware.

5. Schedule it out. Once you know what you want to serve, you will need to come up with a timeline so that the foods are ready at the appropriate time. If you going to be setting up and decorating as well include this in the timeline. A lot of the things can be made in advance and then kept frozen up until the day of the event. Some other things you might be able to make a day or two ahead of time. Even if you have help self catering the event, you want to include some wiggle room in your schedule just in case something goes wrong.

6. Guest count. You want to be sure you have enough food but having too much would be wasteful. Be sure you get a good guest count so you know how much to make.

7. Throw it out. You can make things a lot easier on yourself if you use disposable dinnerware. It might not look as nice in your event but you won't have to deal with washing dishes and this will be a huge timesaver.

8. Enjoy! Just because you are self catering the event doesn't mean you can't enjoy it. If you are well-organized and plan for things you can participate in the event as well as host it!

10 Catering Tips

If starting a home catering business is your dream, consider these tips from a professional caterer.

10 catering tips from Kate Savage

Kate Savage, a Lexington, Ky., professional caterer and writer, has learned to persist even in difficult circumstances.
By Kate Savage

If starting a home catering business from your hobby farm is your dream, consider these 10 tips from a professional caterer.

1. Be realistic.
  • Catering is not glamourous!
  • It’s hard work and long hours.
  • When others play, you work.
Try these truths on for size before you invest any money, time or effort into an extension of your endeavours. Only the strong survive!
2. Cool as a cucumber.Above all you must be able to handle stress and never appear flustered.
  • And that’s not just your stress, but also the “freak-out” levels of stress your client might be experiencing.
Realise what’s at stake for them. Trust and powerlessness can be scary emotions for anyone.
3. Deadlines, deadlines, deadlines.Time is unforgiving in the catering business. Five or ten minutes leeway is acceptable when serving, but half an hour late is not, unless the client has pushed back the clock. Are you reasonably punctual? Examine your ability to deliver in a timely manner.
4. Find your own niche.Remember there are many categories of catering; from barbeque and beans to pheasant under glass.
  • Establish your own area of excellence and interest. Something you enjoy, something that makes your product different.
If successful, you’ll be making lots of it!

5. Listen to your client.Naturally your thoughts and suggestions are what they are looking for, but most clients have some preconceived ideas regards their event. Prize these out. They’ll provide you with guidance and insights. It’s the client you’re trying to please.
6. Never apologise for your price.Your product will always cost more than the frozen semi-equivalent bought from the warehouse megamarket.
  • Don’t be brow-beaten or back off your price with a client that wants to negotiate a “discount”, or promises you all their friends’ events. Nobody wins.
7. Start early.Catering is like Christmas. If you leave it until the last minute, you’ll wish you’d started sooner. Many things can be organized in advance such as rentals and the work force.
  • Over time, you’ll become familiar with the natural sequence. Until then, make lots of lists.
8. Friendly and flexible.
  • Ten minutes before serving you’re told to hold dinner – the guest of honour’s flight is late.
Can you slap on a smile and reassure the hostess that you can ratchet down and maintain the meal indefinitely in a holding pattern? Do it anyway!

9. Remember your place.Probably an old fashioned idea, but it’s easy to get caught up in the excitement of an event.
  • A good rule of thumb for you and especially any extrovert servers you might employ is “if you’re having too much fun, then you’re not working.”
10. Belle of the Ball
  • Clients love to know they have thrown a social smash. Share some of the comments and compliments that came your way.
Part of the point is to glow in the glorious aftermath of the event – and that goes for you too!
