Just Like That...

Dear Diary,

Its a salutation that I have not used for a very very long time.Should change it to "Dear Blogger" or something like that. In this age of technology, pens,papers, pencils, markers....nothing leaves an indelible impression other than words typed and posted---either in blogs or in walls..even emails are getting little slower probably. I am (rather was) until some time back a very old fashioned person resorting to age old habit of writing in your own handwriting with a pen/pencil on a paper, preferably a notebook/journal. You can still do that I guess in your tablets with stylus...but still somehow the essence is lost. especially when you write a letter , your thoughts pour out straight from your heart onto the paper via the pen with your tears, perspiration, smell, lipstick kiss mark etc...There is so much of you in that piece of paper apart from the content...its just unimaginable as how techy people these days manage to personalize! I think they are more into customizing...well it is a silly developer joke!!Never mind....

So as I was saying earlier how old fashioned I was until recently...but then I thought I always loved sharing my thoughts with my journal;and would pen down whenever I had time...Now with time crunch and some other things (will list out later) I have learnt that blogging is the way to go...not just a habit or making anything public...but just having the pleasure to write something ...Well I did have a hard time some time back where I tried to burn my journal and stuff..this is a lot easier to maintain...ya need to keep the password safe from "Hackers". Hackers are all around...mostly they are known people...I mean they know a lot about you and just try their luck into hacking your personal space...let alone...emails accounts, bank accounts, credit card ,phones,call logs,sms-es,facebook, personal laptop...god knows what! We should have a password to our heart's deepest secrets chamber, darkest fears cabinet, hurt locker, emotions vault...for every other compartments that we have in our heart...........I remember GAP came out with a design for a pair of jeans with a password for the zipper...and the Microsoft ad for windows security where a password is needed to unhook a bra.......INGENIOUS!

Actually it is we who need to decide whom to give access to what. Kind a like access groups, privileges, access deny rules in PEGA. The best part is "Access Deny" gets precedence over any other such rules...Ha ha ha...We have all kinds of softwares to enhance security and to blow it...but we don't have anything for our own selves...PITY...That's why I never wanted to be a computer engineer in the first place...and how I got here...Well..that's another story...

Anyways was watching my favorite movie "QSQT" today on Set Max and I just loved it all over again...The actors were so young, so naive and so innocent...they were truly 16-17 year old kids...The dialogues, the expressions...its just awesome...and also hard to find. Young love is blissful until you are old enough to realize that it is bullshit.That's where REAL LIFE comes in I suppose.And you just have to suck it up...

I started writing this blog back in 2009...when there were a lot of things going on at once in my life...(don't even wanna go there)...its sad that I never wrote a line in 2010 though I found a lot of drafts saved...all in hindi...I do need to start writing in Hindi again...Its just that it takes a lot of time and thinking on my part...can only do them over weekends...Blogger...I love you a lot...its just 15 mins of typing and a night full of good sleep........also catering to my sleep is recently acquired "Sex and the City" all seasons all episodes...just love watching them....I remember I used to watch Friends sometime back...and it really sucked! Also now among my prized possession is the entire collection of "Everybody Loves Raymond"...All I need are "Grounded For Life" and "Charmed" to make my collection complete.........
