My Musings

2 weeks is up and I am back in HK. after the first couple of days, didnt know what I was doing, roaming around aimlessly and without purpose. Rammed my car to a lorry. punctured the Bike, Car and Activa. Slept through the day, watched TV thru night. If that was'nt enough I misunderstood my flight timings. I would have almost missed my flight but for some divine intervention !! Thanks to my dad for not flipping over this outrageous mistake from my side. This wont be the last time I am screwing it up. There has been other instaces and there will be and that scares me out of my wits!! One another thought brewing in my mind is that I didnt like being in India as much as I thought. The quality of life is very poor, the air you breath, the water you drink, the roads you travel, the noise you hear and the dirt in the pot holes all seemed to bother me and I am as much a perpetrator to this as anybody else is. It's in our culture and Spic and Span is not a very Indian thing I guess....

I am back after nearly a decade. Phew! It is cliched to see that a lot of water has flown down the river in the last decade. But isn't life a cliche.  I have been married and have a daughter. I was never a banker as I claimed in the last post 9 years ago. It turned out to be a mirage. I am a ..... hotelier! for 9 freaking years. To start from where I left The last post was on March 9th, 2009. I was frantically job hunting. Crossing out one option after another. Then one fine day after many a cold calls, I got a glimmer of hope. I was told that there is some hotel which is looking for an accountant, An asst. finance controller.  Marriott did not ring a bell at that time. I didnt care either. I was clutching at the straws and faked an accountant-ish experience at the interview. Lo and behold, they thought I was a perfect fit!! I joined the company on 26th March, 2009. I told myself that this is just a transient arrangement and I would get back to big things in life. Hat...
