While raising Daughters | Chronicles of Imagination When i got to know that i just delivered a baby girl the first thing that came in my mind was fancy dresses , painted nails , mom n me matching dresses...but little did i knew that she would have her own agenda at hand.From non stop chatting to a dying obsession of all things pink , from the favorite Disney princess to the Crowns and bows for the hairdo...i tell you they are a breed in themselves. Here are a few things i am sure you would also be doing if u are having these cute daughters. 1.   You'll buy her stuff she doesn't need. Shimmery hair bands, polka dotted tights, tiny princess purses, socks that look like ballet shoes: It won't be long before your tiny toddler has a more extensive accessory collection than you do. You would constantly buy her stuff she doesn't need. She would love fashion but not the way you want her to see it. In fact, don’t be surprised if  you’re  more excited by...

The wondrous beauty of sleep is natures greatest gift to mankind.And i rellish my sleep to its fullest. Specially it breaks my heart every Monday morning…when my body and mind are alligned differntly…coz :every tiniest muscle of my body wants to relax till the last second on the watch…and on a different path all together…my mind would be echoing ” Wake up kid “… Office ! Office ! Office ! . ’LETS SLEEP OVER IT’, has been at times the most desired and recommended expression. But it has not just remained a desired act, it has proved relentlessly, that it has value. Today as I woke I know that my sleep even though conditioned because of hectic schedule had been sufficient for the moment, but I promised to myself that whenever it will comes again, I would not prevent it.I would let nature to draw me into it and let myself get indulged into lethargy, coerce myself to get horizontal.If fortunate, pull myself away into the softness of a pillow and bed…………………… But unfortunately…...

1. Fall ill every week and then blame your keyboard for giving you unimaginable infection. 2 .Make a biased comment on a women employee in front of 10 other employees. (Full proof formula to be thrown out) :) 3 .In the ’skills learned’ column in your appraisal form, say “making good coffee”.And proceed to demonstrate how, during the appraisal. 4 .Tell you boss exactly how you think of her/him. 5 .Say mean things about your office on your blog and then pass it over to your boss with ” Must Read ” in subject line. 6 .Make the maximum use of office stationary…order 10 to 20 stationary items daily only to go home and use it for your MBA coaching’s rough work. 7 .Use official phones to call your girlfriend on every min interval just to let her know that how much you miss her. 8 .Put up reminders on your desk for next week interviews with prospective employers. 9. Take holidays because “your grandmother died” and come back with a new look and haircut. 10. Take “best qu...

This blog post has been written with the sole purpose of keeping a track of the novels i have read. Considering that i get trapped by novel-amnesia as soon as i get my hands on any novel. A person having this syndrome has the symptons like forgetting the names of novels , forgetting the story lines and even forgetting the fact that u have read this novel before or not :). But atlast i could fetch a way out for myself. I would also write my comments and reviews for each novel, if anyone of you, reading this blog differs on any statement made by me then ur thoughts would be highly welcomed and appreciated . Sisters - by Daniel Steel : Just OK, got boring towards the end. The Secret - by Rhonda Byrne : Still Trying to figure out that ” Why is it considered a best seller” The Zoya Factor -by Anuja Chauhan : Loved Nikhil and Zoya’s Character The White Tiger - by Arvind Adiga : Someone said that this novel is based on Ambani’s life, if its TRUE then i must say, his empi...

Instead of putting the same old starting line ” Its been long sice i have written a blog ….blah blah blah” lemme put it straight this time ( Though i am very well successful in conveying the msg this time also :P ) Lately i was reading an article in the newspaper which spoke about ‘Twitter’ and i must say , this is the latest hot property in social network, afterall its 1.2 million strength of audience has risen to 6 million in just one year : Legendary!! When i first joined Twitter , I felt like i was in a noisy room where everyone was shouting and nobody was listening.Frankly i did not like the concept at the first use, it was less of a friends chatting tool and more of a self-promoting site .But soon i learnt the difference between a ‘friend’ and a ‘Follower’.Relationships on twitter are not reciprocal like that on Facebook or Orkut,here one can follow anyone without being followed himself - Good for me , coz on doing some wandering in twitter i discovered that some high pr...

Its long  since i have written a post ( although i just have two more :) ).And guess, what was the reason of this delay,well…. there are many, but lets put the blame completely on ” Was watching Friends”. And trust me its a good and a “blame-able” reason.Anyone who is a fan of Friends can watch it for hours without break.but wait… before i start the detailed analysis  lemme tell u that how i landed on watching Friends. ….The complete Friends Series  was a gift to me by Kalpik , a very good friend of mine, on “Friendship Day ” ( So all the friends around the world , now u know that what can be the best gift to be given on Friendship day , Right !)Hmmm. I am currently watching the 7th season and am already deep down in love with all the Friends Actors , esp. Matthew Perry aka Chandler Bing. I have almost stereotyped the cast members with a mind set of mine : Rachel Greens(Jennifer Aniston) : Stylish, bit Selfish,great Career Monica Geller (Courteney Cox) : Compet...

Starting of 2008 was marked with sea-changes like IBM taking over Cognos, SAP over Business Objects and Oracle over Hyperion, means all Business Intelligence experts getting absorbed by the SW leaders. Came Mid 2008 and along with it few attachments like HP taking over EDS and rumors of EMC selling off VMware to Intel, clearly showing that Virtualization is the current target.Going with the same acceleration what can be the next target technology?
