Relativity

Its intereseting to see how relativity plays an important part in our lives. Wondering what that evasive sentence means? Well, it all starts with today being the last day of my vacation. Oh sorry! Its the penultimate day. And what part is relativity playing for today being the-almost-last-day of my vacation? Well, it goes like this.

Sometimes when you very much want something to last for a longer time, it would just seem to end at the blink of an eye and when you are most expecting something to happen, time seems to be endless and what you want to happen to be at infinity. Like this vacation, it just seemed to start and tomorrow I have to go back to Chennai to join office on Monday and when I went to London, the wait for the Sept 13th was killing. Each day seemed to have 36hrs.

Funny this relativitiy is, isn't it?

"Randomly Me"

I was quite bored seeing the same caption "Beni's Blog" through these days. It didnt really sound like me. It sounded like telling someone "This is Beni's Blog, get out of here". So I decided to change the name. After giving it quite a thought, well, not really, just as a quick thought, I decided to name my blog that would explain me.

Btw.. what I am generally blogging about? Well, nothing specific, just things in random. But its all about me. Its all my thought and my opinion. So, "Randomly Me". Its me, but just random thoughts.

Chennai 2008

Now this might sound like a blog written by someone who had been out of Chennai for years. I had been out just for 11 months. But "just 11 months" had made lots of differences. I had earlier posted a blog regarding my first arrival at Chennai. Was I equally happy this time? The very honest answer would be a big "NO". What a traffic!!! Too crowded!!! Too polluted!!! Too many concerns. Right at the time I reached Chennai, it seemed like I was in a mess, and it would take lot of time for me to get back to reality. The clean and almost unpolluted environment of CA has made me think it would take me more time than I thought it would.

But it didn't really take that much. Two days in Chennai, and now life is back to normal. Same fighting with auto drivers for rate, same Tidel park, pretty much everything is same and back to normal. So what has really changed. Chennai has become more and more and more costly. For someone who has just returned from the US, it should not seem so. But it does. Auto rates have increased, vegetable rates have increased. Has it really increased or is it just my perception? I dont really have an answer for this.

Second, I miss all my friends. I have countable number of friends at Chennai now. :-(

Anyway, now I am back, after a wonderful 2007 at California. Is 2008 going to be equally wonderful? I hope it would be more wonderful. Oh btw... if you were waiting for an entry regarding my time at US.. therez too much to write. I shall try and recollect some of them and put as an entry in the future.
