Let's start today with a quote: Its only on the weekends when sleep eludes you, weekdays are sleep deprived. It is true, on weekdays you ignore your alarm and cherish those 10 minutes extra sleep, but on weekends its like you wake up without an alarm and can't go back to sleep again, so frustrating it is.
Halloween went by yesterday, people dressed up as Pac-man, zombies, Joker, Batman. Why are we obsessed with evil even though we disguise it on the outside but everyone wants to be like joker, quotes from Joker are far more crowd pulling than Batman.
Sometimes I think, it is better to go back to being a student rather than facing the world, you have deadlines but no money involved with it, you can sleep however long you want to and make your own schedule without using Microsoft Project, and still be on schedule. Yes, you earn money, but is it worth all the sacrifice you make because of it.
Now, coming on to my life away from home, it has been challenging, to leave every comfort in the world and start my life altogether without any idea of the direction with me as an amateur captain. I can say, I have learned how to move the sail, I still am learning to control the speed but will master that eventually.
A new work week knocks on the door and me wishing it was still Saturday, one more day to go for the weekend, but reality hits you hard. Time to get to the chef's hat working for the next week, because that is what I care about right now. What I will eat in the next week.
Adios amigos, Hope to get more inspiration to write something more intriguing in the coming weeks.

So, this is my first attempt at blogging, I even had to ask a friend about how to create a blog. Please bear with me as there will not be a defined format, start and end. Rather it will go back and forth from end to start, swinging back and forth. The only time I wrote was in school where I was getting graded to write and I the experience was not good. People did not look at the content but my handwriting. Yes, I am a left handed person, so bear with it.
This thought of starting a blog came from nowhere. Here I am on a saturday morning, no plans for the weekend, sipping my morning tea, looking up youtube videos ranging from sub-conscious mind to Swami Vivekananda to Tesla's model X to politics and still can't decide what interests me.
So, yesterday at work (a Friday) my boss asks me, did you do that work I gave you, I was like yeah but I still have to review it (my excuse because I did not event started working on that).
On Monday, thinking that weekend is so farrr away and realizing on Saturday that it is almost over, man somebody stop it! Sometimes, I think that for what will I save the money I am earning and so I spend it on some random shit, and realizing afterwards, was that really necessary and the answer is always in the affirmative.
I am an Indian in USA. So, I was used to a sedentary lifestyle, but coming here has made me a better cook, although back home I only knew how to make maggie and now I know how to make dal baati even. Nowadays, my week looks like Roti ki jugaad. Back home when I went after a day of grueling studies (I am engineer so you can imagine how hard I studied) I wondered what my mom made and now while heading home from work I think, what can be made easily and will not consume much of my time because you know I have so many TV series to catch up.
So, ending my blog with the stroke of lunchtime, man I need to eat and it is hard to find a good Indian restaurant in this area ( apart from the ones I have already tried).
Ciao for now.
