Not a single place to sleep

Dang. What a week it has been! I just got a moment to sit and think. And I realized that I am sleeping in a different place almost all this week!

Friday night - at home in Thane
Change city to Pune
Saturday night - at a resort in Pune
Change city to Thane
Sunday night and Monday night - at home in Thane
Change city to Hyderabad
Tuesday night - at a hotel in Hyderabad
Change hotel to a different hotel
Wednesday night - at a different hotel in Hyderabad
Change room to a different room
Thursday night - at a different room in the hotel
Change location to a flight
Friday night - on a seat in a Delta flight
Change country to the States
Saturday night - at home in Austin

I feel like a snail carrying its shell from one place to another - carrying my bags whereever I go..

Perhaps later..

Procrastination - we all do it.. at different times, points, walks of life.. Why do we procrastinate? Whats the reason for doing it? Technically, I should research it, read around about it.. but.. perhaps later..

I think God has given us the ability to procrastinate for a reason - a reason that plays an important part in the whole fabric of life and humanity.. Perhaps things are not supposed to be done at a person's own will and whim.. The Universe has a master-plan, and a particular action has to be done only at a particular point in time - not before it. Perhaps thats the reason that we are forced to believe that we are procrastinating; when, in reality, the Universe is not ready for us to do what we think we shouldve been doing, and thus it manipulates our mind into not doing it, making us "think" that we are procrastinating.

But then, why do we feel good if we really go ahead and do something right now that we thought we'd procrastinate about? Eg. "I need to fill out my tax forms.. Ahh perhaps I'll do it later.. Well, I am sitting free right now, so I might as well just go ahead and finish it up." Then, why does it feel good when I do get my taxes done? Is this an anomaly in the way that the Universe works? If we were "supposed" to fill out taxes "perhaps later" then why do we feel good when we go ahead and do it? Did the Universe adjust itself dynamically, reminding itself that yes, doing taxes now will fit into the plan?

The next time you think about procrastination, think about the immense superpower above and beyond our control.. well, or just go ahead and get your thing done now, and you can think about the superpower perhaps later..

L O S T

Yes, I've been on a sabbatical from my blog for probably more than a year now. Lots of things have changed in the last year.. No time to key everything right now.

Catching up on Lost - I'm completely lost now.. (not that I wasnt lost before, but the more I watch Lost, the more I'm getting lost myself.)

Eat my dust, Darius..

Ok, I'm done with Need For Speed - Carbon! I just finished the Career mode of the game - I have a couple of Challenge series races I need to finish up..

Honestly speaking, NFS-Carbon wasnt as exciting as NFS-MW. I didnt really care for the main character, and all the others seemed really insignificant. NFS-MW was successful in getting me really involved in the game, NFS-Carbon wasnt. The cops and chases in NFS-Carbon were something of a let-down.. Most of the chases were over very quickly, and there werent any mandatory requirements for chases like in NFS-MW..

I guess I'm bigger NFS-MW fan than NFS-Carbon, so whatever I write here will always be in favor of NFS-MW!

Sunday extravaganza!

What a surprising Sunday afternoon, when so many relatively good movies playing on the TV at the same time, for a change!!

Air Force One
Austin Powers
Alien
Serial Mom
Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom
The Devil Wears Prada
The Pelican Brief
