Finally it happened…

Paul the Octopus is no more… Paul died in sleep, they say, but GOD knows how !

Paul became internationally famous for correctly predicting the winner of each Germany's seven matches at the 2010 World Cup, as well as the final. Paul's selections were designed so that he was presented with two boxes containing food in the form of a mussel, each box marked on the outside with the flag of a national football team in an upcoming match. His choice of which mussel to eat first was taken as indicating his prediction of a win for the country whose flag was on that box.

Isn’t it amazing ? An animal predicting the winner of the foot ball world cup ! Well, former Argentina coach Diego Maradona instead found the Paul as psychic and was glad that he is dead.

Opinion differs !!

Finally it happened…

I never saw my workplace how it looks after 9 pm. This is really crazy that I had to stretch for more than 14 hours without break..! Had a long drive all the way in the night from my office to my sister’s place which is close to some 22 kms. One of the bad days in my career. Stress and politics lead to frustration and feel like walking out of the place.

Finally it happened…

One of my best friends broke up with her boy friend after some 5 break-up & patch-ups in 4 months period. And the reason being, her status on FB was ‘looking for friendship’ (mind it, it was not relationship). Another reason was, he gifted a precious diamond ring and she wore it on a middle finger. I can understand, if she denies wearing on the ring finger, but he took a decision to ditch her bcos she didn’t wear. Instead he could have told her not to wear when she was checking the ring size.

Was wondering, if the relationships are so sensitive, why people get into relationships and if the basic trust doesn’t exist from the day one, how can the so called, LOVE grew so much. !! If the love is so strong and divine, why it breaks up for silly reasons like this.

Finally it happened…

Thought of moving on with life, with what I get. I get what I deserve is a simple logic. Personal or professional life, one has to be strong enough to face challenges and get on with it. May be it sounds like more of a preach, but its true that one comes alone to this world, and goes alone. The more we are attached to the people around us, the more we get hurt.
