Adventurabad
Let me start this off by saying that I, Arunjeet Singh, of sound body and mind admit that I am slowly falling for the city of Hyderabad (among other things). Having said that, the Hyderabadis do continue to annoy me with their one true undying ambition. That ambition, and inane facts like this sometimes bear repeating, is to be roadkill.

It feels...
like a gust of wind on an arid day
like sweet silence when you have nothing to say
like the very first rain of the hottest summer
like a good book when you're ready to retire
like the first ray of sun, the first inkling of light
like a lover's embrace on a long, cold night -
Great Expectations
Funny isn't it how real life never quite measures up to what you had expected from it. The first time I travelled outside of the country I had expected it (western europe to be precise) to be a different world. Well that didn't quite pan out. It was different in the sense that it was cleaner and better ordered. Maybe not as crowded. But that was ( Read more... ) -
Boredom Will...
...make you do the strangest shit. Ever since I got back to Hyd (which was a century ago, on Tuesday) I have had nothing, NOTHING to do. So here's what I've done with my time:
- tried to get my brand spanking new kick ass phone (http://www.europe.htc.com/products/htctytn.html) on the company's network. Partial success.
- badgered the evil minions of ( Read more... )

Outsource My Life
So I figure that the only three things I must absolutely do in life are:
- Have good beer
- Play videogames
- Write code
Everything else other than that is expendable. I figure I can probably outsource the rest of it to someone. Yeah, so I'm a bit drunk right now. But that doesn't necessarily mean this is a bad idea does it?

Stuck in My Head
I can't get to sleep
I think about the implications
Of diving in too deep
And possibly the complications
Especially at night
I worry over situations
I know I'll be alright
Perhaps it's just imagination

When in America...
- Don't order "large" at any fastfood joints. I mistook the "container" they handed me for coca cola to be a jug. You could do the same.
- If you wear a large sized tee shirt (outside America), buy a medium or a small.
- Gawk at the massive skyscrapers. Aren't they great?
- Don't gawk at the massive people. Unless you want to get beaten up.
- Smile at people. ( Read more... )

Ten Things I Disliked About You
- You didn't read too many books. In fact, I'm not sure you read any at all.
- You never did tell me you loved me.
- Sometimes, you'd ignore my phone calls.
- You never offered to share the cost of our dates. Not even our first one.
- You didn't like video games or comics.

Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego?
Or Arun for that matter? Okay, I realise that title isn't going to make sense to a lot of peeps. So here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Where_in_the_World_Is_Carmen_Sandiego%3F. And as for what I have been doing? Here: http://blogs.msdn.com/knowledgecast/default.aspx. I've been promising myself I'll take some pictures of the place when I get the ( Read more... ) -
What's Going On?
This is beginning to feel a bit like monthly update. But I assure you, it is no such thing. Routine is anathema outside of the workplace and things are as they should be. Also, because I am too lazy to write anything original I leave you with a song that's been stuck in my head for days:
You're a falling star, You're the get away car.
You're the line ( Read more... )
