A for Apple, B for Best!


From the first trembling steps in the kindergarten, to that drunken walk after a graduation party; there are these special people in the world who we owe everything to. They guide us, they scold us, and they happily take our hatred and still show us that light we’ve been looking for - our Teachers.

Apart from our parents, teachers are the only people who have the ability to reform us. As they say, the strength of anything lies in its foundation. And so does ours. The first teacher who taught you ABC, taught you in a way that she made sure that you could write such long stories or probably write stupid technical codes. And those who followed, made sure they instilled knowledge in such a way that never excretes out!

Among all the teachers I’ve had, there were some special few, who stomped my heart in such a way that they left a deep print! So much that even after 19 years, I remember them. And hope to see them at least once in my walk of life.

Today being the Teacher’s day- I’d love to dedicate this little post to my favorite teachers, with all my heart. Ms. Marina, Mrs. Sonali Malik, Mrs. Renu Gulati, Mrs. Anshu Sahi, Mr. Deepak, Ms. Geeta, Mrs. Tejaswinee Barua; you all have engraved my life with something or the other valuable, that I’m definitely sure of passing it on to my children!:P

And It all began with *A for Apple* and came to *B for Best*! So here’s wishing my best-est teachers a very happy Teacher’s Day! Although a Thank you for whatever they’ve done to make me ‘Me’ wouldn’t suffice; but nonetheless socially it does. Hence, Thank You. Tons.

You. All. Are. Truly. Awesome!:D

TO-DO #4: Write a Blog!


One. Just one awesome thing the workplace has introduced in my life is the MS Office Note! After a random deployment of MS Office 2010 and a day (read: several) of boredom, I found this. Never knew it would replace my daily notepad files of To-Do’s and my Ever-note (which I’m technologically challenged with) on my phone. THIS has thus become my daily To-Do maintainer! The happiness in being organized is pretty much valuable, mind you!

Initially I wrote everything and anything I had to do; till one day when it reached #47! (Honestly!) And that’s when I realized how crazy a To Do can make you! With constant notifications and reminders, making sure you complete your task for the day, or for the coming days when you plan to go shopping; it doesn’t forget and doesn’t let you either. Precisely, it scares the hell outta you!

But! Even with all these flaws -say awesome tech features resembling a mom nagging constantly, I still LOVE it! In fact, writing this blog was a part of my To Do too! Not because I had a blogger’s block, or I was trying to breathe through a 5 feet pile of electronic paper work over my little head; or the medical routine that zonked me out; but ONLY cause I needed it to remind me of not missing out on what I love. :D

Even though the colorful features attract you, it also give you an organized layout of how screwed you are and will be, in no time! Though that helps sometimes, where either you can save yourself the pit hole, or let yourself go, to fall into one. Unless you work in an IT industry where no matter what-how-when-why; you’ll anyway fall! :P

I doubt till the time I start acting on some aspects of my life, I’ll ever be able to stop cribbing about being an engineer. Blah!
Nonetheless, I hope my words speak louder than these petty actions; and transform into some happy heavy-duty actions soon! All I need is Mr. G, some important people to push me, YOU all to read this regularly; and not to miss- the To-Do’s!

And that’s how I’ll end my weird Friday in office! Happy Reading!
