Posting from work is fun ;)

Posting from office for the very first time... and to tell you i am super bugged at this point of time :) Somehow there seem to be no interest to do anything at all, and this damn new project does not seem to kick off either. Only sports website i am able to log into these days is mirror football and i am really not impressed with the articles written there by people like Collymore and Defoe. Wonder how these people get paid for writing shit more often than not, I could do more justice even though my writing skills are not extraordinary. So its becoming that much more difficult to kill time. Just picked up my third black tea for the day and that seems to be the first thing i do of every time i get really restless, other than logging onto facebook on my mobile and wait and wait for someone to update something interesting so that i can kill some time commenting on that. Have become a freaking addict. Actually addict is a understatement. And as i take another sip of tea from my glass now i am wondering what more i can type on this post.
Getting tempted to get into the cagea n kill some time with the brothers watching some videos on footytube and youtube, might succumb to the pressure of restlessness soon and go there and stop wilsa from WORKING and hijack his comp.
And as i am typing this post wondering why the day is so borin and devoid of any sort of activity. Lots of things pop up ;) Have a project related discussion with my team lead after a long time, even though it was a very small one. Probably the first in three weeks ;) Then get a mail from "MY BEST FREN" that its his last working day in office today.. Didnt see that one coming. Now my football team is down to the bare bones ;) and 9n takes a dig at him with a reply to his mail thanking him for his immense contributution to the team. Loved the "Bulet like toe poke" comment though :P
Also a good old friend wanted the phone number of his long lost crush which he thought i would be able to find using my networking capabiliteis. Did my first round of search on the social networking sites, and the result was negative. Actually even i echo his sentiments. Its very nice to talk to some girl now when your conversational capabalities with the opposite sex has increased hundred folds over the last 5 to 6 years :) Never had the balls to do that in school. If you had a crush on a girl, all you do is follow her everywher she goes, stare at her in the corridors, ask about her to all her damn friends but never talk to her. Man... I have had the true satisfication of talking to one such girl a few years back ;) So will try and make sure this guy feels that too..
Lots of new faces on the floor. The fresh recruits from colleges have finally hit the floor. Didnt find anything really good looking there, but some of them are pretty decent look wise. Have not yet got the chance to interact yet :P
So as it stands, Date and ST coupled with Sister are still on top of the list on the floor ;)
Another hour and then can go for the evening snack and kill another hour on top. Cant wait now for it to become 6. The restlessness is getting on my nerves now. Guess its time for another tea :D
Finding it slightly difficult to sit here and type all this cos every jack on the floor who has to go to the loo has to cross my cubicle and will surely play peeping tom.. and i am havin to do a JPD every now and then to look over my shoulder to see who's behind. This sad seat that i've got. Have you heard of a LOO view seat yet, thats exactly what i've got at work :(
Will try to do whatever justice i can with these updates straight from work. Seems to be fun. Its just like making out in a public place. You are always scared that someone wil just pop by and ask you what you are doing, but you do this just for that extra thrill and so that it increases the pleasure :P
Signing off now.. Hope to make this a more regular habit...

Official Theme - World Cup 2010

Something inspirational had to happen for me to push myself to write my next post, and it just happened now :)
I am not at all a music freak. So for me to fall completely heads over in love with a song, it had to be something remarkable and exceptional. And this one truly is mind blowing. The tune, the rhythm and to top it all.. The Lyrics... Touches your heart. Makes you feel for the people of africa.
Such a wonderful song as the Theme for this year's World Cup in South Africa. Thanks to Keinan Abdi Warsame alais K'NAAN for coming up with something special like this. Have been listening to it from the last two hours nonstop again and again and again and even when writing this post :)
Really want an African team to win this years world cup now :) Cant just wait for june now.

When I get older, I will be stronger
They’ll call me freedom, just like a Waving Flag

When I get older, I will be stronger
They’ll call me freedom, just like a Waving Flag
And then it goes back, and then it goes back
And then it goes back

Born to a throne, stronger than Rome
But Violent prone, poor people zone
But it’s my home, all I have known
Where I got grown, streets we would roam
But out of the darkness, I came the farthest
Among the hardest survival
Learn from these streets, it can be bleak
Except no defeat, surrender retreat

So we struggling, fighting to eat and
We wondering when we’ll be free
So we patiently wait, for that fateful day
It’s not far away, so for now we say

When I get older, I will be stronger
They’ll call me freedom, just like a Waving Flag
And then it goes back, and then it goes back
And then it goes back

So many wars, settling scores
Bringing us promises, leaving us poor
I heard them say, love is the way
Love is the answer, that’s what they say,
But look how they treat us, make us believers
We fight their battles, then they deceive us
Try to control us, they couldn’t hold us
Cause we just move forward like Buffalo Soldiers

But we struggling, fighting to eat
And we wondering, when we’ll be free
So we patiently wait, for that faithful day
It’s not far away, but for now we say

When I get older, I will be stronger
They’ll call me freedom, just like a Waving Flag
And then it goes back, and then it goes back
And then it goes back

When I get older, I will be stronger
They’ll call me freedom, just like a Waving Flag
And then it goes back, and then it goes back
And then it goes back

(Ohhhh Ohhhh Ohhhhh Ohhhh)
And everybody will be singing it
(Ohhhh Ohhhh Ohhhhh Ohhhh)
And you and I will be singing it
(Ohhhh Ohhhh Ohhhhh Ohhhh)
And we all will be singing it
(Ohhh Ohh Ohh Ohh)

When I get older, I will be stronger
They’ll call me freedom, just like a Waving Flag
And then it goes back, and then it goes back
And then it goes back

When I get older, I will be stronger
They’ll call me freedom, just like a Waving Flag
And then it goes back, and then it goes back
And then it goes back

When I get older, when I get older
I will be stronger, just like a Waving Flag
Just like a Waving Flag, just like a Waving flag
Flag, flag, Just like a Waving Flag.
