It’s time to get bored. While the entire world is celebrating December as Anti-Boredom Month with vacations, festivals and parties lined up, I am yawning my way to office. How am I doing on my boredom meter??? Well lets see... really bad, infact getting worse by every passing minute. With only reality horror shows, Ruchika’s trial and nth time repetition of bollywood flicks, Idiot box, is the last resort.
Friends are either at home spending time with parents/friends or merely on a mega world tour vacation to chill out and welcome the New Year in a very serene, relaxed and high-spirited way. I’m in Bangalore :( working and attending office daily. Why? Coz I don’t have leaves and no plans to go home. The good/bad part of working with an International organization is that there is literally no major work in the last 2 weeks of December. And to top it all; Recession has slowed down things a lot. Now at this time of the year, people are getting less work to do. Off late people are free and do not have much to work. All colleagues who stayed back like me are catching up on the pending work by filling pages and pages of performance appraisals. Hey am not talking about myself. Common work and me? I have this reputation of being the laziest creature on the planet and I have to live up to that. With year-end closure and holiday season, I am as free as the stainless steel chammach that comes free with Brooke Bond Tea and I am loving it. Like every normal human being I also look for number of long weekends when the next years calendars are released. Like everyone I was yearning for holidays. But now with holidays round the corner, and left alone in the city, am not excited.
I am bored to death and let me count you the evidences of getting bored. I am playing all kinds of stupid games on facebook. You can see a lot of activity going on there. I started watching some brainless reality shows and CID on TV (not suicidal to watch K serials though). I am reading all org announcements of unknown people joining GE and several other countless brainless activities to keep myself from going insane. I’ve also attended my colleagues child’s 1st birthday parties… It’s the holiday season and I’m all-alone on this planet earth. Well at office I have to fill out my performance appraisal forms like everone else and IT returns to be filed- which is monotonous and I despise it. I am not able to go home as it was not planned earlier and now the flight expenses are exorbitantly high. Sigh…. So here I am vegetating in Bangalore winters and literally doing nothing. I love it. I love my life… :(Tuesday, December 29, 2009
