Chasing the Monsoons

When I say Bling, you say King, Bling is King, Bling is King

Okay I just made that up using a line sung by Hard Kaur in Singh is Kinng's big-ass hit, Bas Ek Kinng.

The songs for the movie have made me want to go in to see the movie on the first day first show basis. Ofcourse, I cannot really do that as it's a working day and I'm not crazy enough to go for the first show @ 8:30 AM!

All said and done, this weekend I definitely intend to watch the movie.

I saw Dark Knight recently, and thoroughly enjoyed it. It was brilliance personified. Heath Ledger was fantastic (may he rest in peace), and the other cast too held their own. All in all a good fantasy movie.

On a more personal front, things are going great. I am currently trying to find my wife a job, which is proving to be more difficult that I thought. Lets see how things roll.

This weekend I'm planning to take her to Lonavala for a day outing, just so as to enjoy the drive and maybe some good food there (they have awesome Thali joints that serve ixed wholesome meals and don't go by a menu).

My recent US trip was also quite good, and got some good work done. On the professional front things seem to be at a standstill. My appraisal didn't go too well, due to various factors which I'll keep off the blog, but I intend to do something about it soon.

I was having this discussion with a friend of mine, who was currently evaluating Grad School programs in my area of expertise, and was really stuck between a rock and a hard place by her own will. I told her, that sometimes it is best to just pick randomly, and that it will mostly turn out for the better. Sometimes a raondom choice might lead you down a path you may never have chosen otherwise, and might be a really good experience.

All said and done, I think I'm ready to make some random choices too. :)
