Lifez a video game!!

Life really is like a video game!!
You play missions and levels in a video game.......same is the case with life!!
You have ambitions, which are like missions and your ambitions move higher levels.........
When you finish your game you feel happy but you crave for more........
And right now I am now craving for more!!
I am looking for new challenges......new environments.......new people!!

Fishing Adventure


Now not many people know about my adventures before I turned myself into a sucker that I am now!! :).

School was fun and adventure....I was in 5th grade then.I loved pets and I would die to get a dog as my pet....back then mind you!!Everyday was quite an adventure for me......I had that natural basic instinct you know.So one day I decided I need to start pisciculture and urgently needed some fish!!That fateful day me and my naughty friends talked about the place where we can get some fish for my aquarium project.

My friend Ali suggested fishing from the water body at the Mosque.......So we went in (I just don't believe how I could get into something like that ) and tried fishing using a polythene bag.....there were fish but they were too fast for us!!I could have left it at that point, but I didn't. I wanted some fish into my water bottle for sure!!One of my friends suggested that we go to a pool of water near the railway quarters.It was more of a fountain than a water body, and there were plenty of fish.So we fished for about half an hour with my water bottle full with live fish.......I was excited.We headed back home thanked my friends.It was about 6:30 Pm.I was supposed to be home by 4:00 pm......and there was no way I was going to tell my mom about the fishing plan.Thought I will get away with this, but no......

So I told mom, I was with friends playing cricket.Now when somebody says don't lie to me and if I did lie about something then I usually admit that I lied.And thats what my mom told me "Don't lie!!"So I had to explain that I went fishing to some pond.Big mistake!!I should have told it was a fountain.......My mom got very worried and thrashed me and just when I thought it was over....my dad comes in and guess what I get thrashed again!! :)After they were done......I was happy to have my fish transferred to a fresh bowl of water.I thought what I did that day was worth it.Next day happy and excited to tell my friends about the fish, I headed to school.
A class was interrupted by the peon and he called out my name along with my other usual suspects and told that the vice principal wants to see us!! :)

I knew it right away that something fishy was going on.As it turns out one my friends dad complained to the principal about the incident yest!!Do you hear some strange sounds?......aah ooh no please.....i wont sorry excuse me.Got thrashed again........ :)But I wouldn't have minded any thing as long as my fish were doing good, but most of them were dead within two days!! :)

I have decided that I am going to blog about my childhood adventures and misadventures so that I relish back those special times and places. So keep watching for updates!!

Quote it!!

Husbands are like rubber bands
Wifes are like Knives

Think about it for a moment!!

Five Nine--Lucky me!!

Got to tell you this.....my lucky numbers are 5 and 9.

Not only lucky but they seem to reverberate everywhere in my life.
Everything seems to happen to me in 5's and 9's and and their digit sums!!
I see a certain pattern......

Let' s start with the my birthday:

14th of Nov-->1+4=5!!

Number of letters in my name:

RAGHU-->5!!

Next take my roll number in college:

First year it was 14-->5!!

Later it was 59-->5+9-->14-->5!!

Interesting?? more.......

Day on which I worked for my first company-->18th of Nov-->1+8-->9!!

My employee id ends with-->45-->4+5-->9!!

Think I might be very superstitious, hmm.....may be but I cannot deny the pattern I see!!I hope to continue to take a note of this pattern in my life, going forward and see what I can interpret from it for better or for worse!!
