Brevity is the soul of wit

The pressure of keeping it short has lead to a disappearing blog.
I will be back after learning the art of brevity.

Word of the week - Intense

Intense work. Intense stress.
Intense stress. Intense partying.
Intense partying. Intense stress.

Intense loop.

Australian Open Finals - 2009


To break down. To show you really care about winning . To sob in front of a crowd of 15 K and millions worldwide and continue after regaining composure to say ' I don't want to have the last word 'coz THIS man deserves it '. To conclude by saying ' I'll see you guys next year ' and make it sound like a promise - confident and dignified.

That's Roger Federer.

The man who endears himself to you even when he plays a dismal fifth set in the Australian Open Finals. The man who makes you admire him for his skills on court and adore him for his graciousness off court. The man who can make his opponent put an arm around him and respect his greatness, for history bears testimony to his finesse.

That's Roger Federer.

When the cat's away the mouse will dance. Or will they?

This week has been excruciatingly busy for me. Was glued to my seat the whole time I was in office. Got a lot of work done and felt good at the end of each day. Self satisfaction level - very high.

As a side story, my boss was out on a business trip this whole week. Now, he's one of the the nicest person I've worked with but as nice as he is , the brat in me can't help but rub hands in glee each time he's out of office!! His absence spells FREEDOM!! No eagle eyes burning into the back of my head . Literally (his cube is right behind mine) .

It's so ironical that he's back in office today and, I am feeling painfully laid back with no desire to fractionize my energy into work.

Shouldn't it have been the other way around - Boss around, work hard. Boss out, party ?
Corporate dunce - me.
Uh Oh - He was here. The boss.
Uh Uh Uh Oh!!! He just read this post. Shittttttt!
