Weekend special

Now after that rather heavy post, I thought something light wouldn't hurt. 2 posts in a day? Well, it's the weekend, gives me more time to do things I like to do. Saturday evening, I am home alone, my Tv on mute and listening to Nirvana. Soon I will be getting ready to go to a friend's place. I am a little tired today. There is much going on these days. Ofcourse, my first half of Saturdays is spent cleaning the house. And I also did some packing. I am leaving for India in about 2 weeks time and there is so much I have to do. I am really excited about this trip. It's been 2 years since I last visited and my sister is getting married. So I am excited, even when I know this trip is going to be crazy busy. I had an ok week. After the holidays, going to work is a pain. Also there were a couple of people missing at work, so it was rather busy. When I got this job, I was excited. It was challenging in the beginning, learning new things and all. There is still much to learn, but I feel ready to move on. I want to try something else now. Move to a different position. I will be taking my exam once I come back from India and will start looking out for a different position. For me, being on the move is important. Almost like I can't get too comfortable at one place or with one thing. The moment I start getting a sense of comfort, I get this feeling that I need to now move on. I have to admit though, this keeps things exciting for me. I sometimes wonder when people tell me they have been with the same company, doing the same thing for 20 years. I can never see myself doing something for that long. Change is what I crave. Sometimes when things settle down and are moving smoothly, I like to turn them upside down, just to avoid feeling stagnant. Ah well...
I picked up 'The lost symbol' a few days back. An interesting book, as expected. I do feel however Dan Brown is now overdoing it with Robert Langdon. He will soon run his course and will have to find something else to write. There are a few books I have to read. One of my new year's resolution is to do some major reading this year. I enjoy reading and I felt bad when I realized my 2009 reading wasn't as impressive as I would have liked it to be. But we will change all that in 2010.

I almost forgot, this is my second post in the new year. So far it's been a good year. It's funny, how people are all gung ho about new year for the first 3 weeks into the year and then suddenly the magic is all gone and it's like any other day of the year.

Time for me to get ready now. I am going to wear some make up tonight!.. Later
