So as I was preparing for my so called new phase of life and out of the blue one very highly enlightened gentleman mentioned "pehle ka kuch barabar nahi tha" he was talking about my blog name. When I gave it a thought I couldn't agreed more. My previous blog name was what I felt at that very time but it wasn't me.... I guess your state of mind and who you are can be poles apart. But the cool thing is that the action has been taken and so the New name...Old Me, thats how my blog got this new feisty name.
As I have learnt in my MBA classes that taking someone's words or ideas as if they were your own is Plagiarism, and plagiarism is a big NO NO so I give full credit to who's idea it was. JAI HO BABA !! narayan hari vitthal vitthal !!
My blog has a name thats me... Will that make me blog more often...

SNOW..
I want this post to be very positive because I'm trying to write about something that i really don't like. Snow is not one of my most favorite things in the world. It didn't really bother me when I got to this country. I remember the day I landed in this country, I was very gracefully welcomed by snow. Everything was white, at first I was excited I played with it, made snowman, had snow fights, looked at each flake closely, admired the beauty of it, said wow and the best part of all this was I didnt feel cold I was fine. It really did not bother me at all infact I liked it. But as the second winter came by the excitement was all gone. I didn't care if it was around or no, there were not snowman, no snow fights, no snow flakes and definitly no WOW. I was just too busy doing my stuff and working at the college for long hours, it was such long hours that I didn't even know when it snowed and when the snow was cleared out, so it didn't really matter except the cold I frooze this winter. But now as its my third winter it matters it is a very very very huge part of my life which I totally dislike for the simple reason because I drive. Every little thing from sitting in a cold car to not being able to move the car from the parking lot to the car skidding while your driving everything has effected me. After trying a million times I have come to a conclusion that I cannot drive my car when it snows and there is no solution to it. And most importantly I am cold all the time there is not even a single second when I feel like my body is fine my nose bleeds my toes are cold my hair has static and the list goes on and on.
I tried to keep myself as positive as I could but sometimes its better to let out your frustration here so that i am happier in real. Or atleast I can try in winter !!!

Little things that get a big smile on my face...
Today was just another day, it was wired because I wasn't happy nor was I sad about anything. I couldn't figure out what this feeling is called. So half the day I was pondering about what to call this wired feeling. I really didn't get an answer so I just forgot about it. So getting back to my day.. that usual was on I work up had nothing to do so I facebooked got bored and watch T.V. got bored, tried to read an e-book got bored, looked out of my window...got very very very bored, got back to watching T.V.... didn't really make a difference still got bored, facebooked...now I was getting restless and bored, walked around the house, took a shower, made a few phone calls and by the time I finished all of this it was 9:30 Pm and I was still bored. So I decided to get a cup of coffee and write about this wired day. Believe it or now the moment I got this hazelnut flavoured hot coffee and I took a sip of it, I don't know what got into me but I had this huge smile on my face and I realized that I was happy. I couldn't stop smiling and I did not know the reason why. One hot cup of Hazelnut coffee got a huge smile on my face and made me happy...wired..but i like it

Happy Birthday Me...
2k10 ( doesn't even look like a year)...My first post of the year...wont really say "I wanted to write before...but" because this years is gonna be the years for no excuses, I was plain lazy so I didn't write. Also to be a little more nicer to myself I wanted to write about my 25th birthday so I waited this long :). 2nd Feb 2k10 the day I turned 25. This years started with a big big wave of mixed emotions. The year started with my full family with me so I was happy, then it was time for me to go back to the US it was sad. I got to be with my nani for the entire month and I took the best ever memories with me so I was happy. I lost her on the 17th of Jan I was very sad, I was away from my family and was not around when my mom needed me the most, but never the less she is not suffering any more and for sure she is in a much better place than all of us down here so that makes me keep my sadness aside and say its fine. My nani loved my birthday she always said that my birthday is the most favorite day of the year for her, because of two reason the first one was that she got the bestest husband on that day and the second one was that she got the bestest grand daughter too. Even though I miss her so so so much I feel my birthday is the day when I can celebrate secretly with her. So I decided that I will be the happiest on my nani's favorite day of the year.
Coming back to this years happy day it is the third year I am celebrating my birthday without my family and as much as I miss them I have to agree that the crazy family and friends I have here make sure that I feel on the top of the world this day. I love each and one of them and I will miss them like crazy when they wont be around. Turning 25 feels wired. I all of a sudden feel grown up or may be i feel I should act grown up even if I am not. Generally I don't think too much about the future cause I belive you mess up your present thing about the future but funnily the whole of my birthday all I thought about was " oh god I'm 25 and I have nothing in place". It vanished as the day passed :).
So to keep is short and simple I'm 25, I love my life and I miss you nani.
