Not that I'm not used to these graveyard shifts, but off lately haven't seen the clock hands in this position. Trust me, the last thing you would want your employer to remember about you is that you are a drowsy dullard. And I definitely can't afford that within my first six months, at least. I've been in this situation when my exam invigilator had to wake me up during my engineering first year exam. FYI, it was Engineering Drawing. Now, you tell me, what would you have done when you had to appear for and exam at 9 in the morning after your sisters wedding at 3 in the night? A typical Indian marriage,toil for a week before and after, brother of the bride- the last person to receive but first to render services would be phrases i would pick to defend myself. Well, luckily for me , that was the last exam and had a great time with the marriage crowd later. But couldn't avoid the lecturer giving me sly looks now and then during my four years.
35 blog views in a single day. I'm not much of this numbers man but,I would definitely consider that as a above average performance on my behalf. There were compliments, comments and suggestions flowing in from all directions asking me to do this..don't do that, try this and stuff. I'm really glad that I've got some friends to give me honest feedback. Many said that what i wrote was too good for a first timer and were expecting more like this. Now, this really increases my responsibility in the form of expectations which i am starting to enjoy. Ideas about what to write in my next article have been swarming in my mind all the time. I don't know if you can use the term 'adrenaline rush' for this, but if you can, I'd like to use it. All through the weekend i was rattling my brain for the next article, what to write? I was literally framing my sentences in my mind, erasing them, replacing them. Literally i was running a MS Word editor in my mind. I'm also glad that people could see a different 'me'. This blogger 'me' was always shadowed by the lazy 'me'. It's payback time and revenge, my friends, is a bitch. In McDonald's way 'I'm Loving It!!!'
I was thinking why didn't I take up writing earlier? I feel like i have a lot to write. Hopefully this josh continues all through my blogging episode.

caught in the same situation.... and i got so used to it that no one usually care if i ever sleep during nights or not... gud to see someone awake at this time of the night.... but to be honest.. phew..!!!! don't let it become a habit...
well....nice to see that ur back into ur old way of nocturnal activity...i could not somehow digest the notion that u can sleep early...remember one thing my dear friend...old habits die hard....
Lol! I'm facing the same too. Why oh why are Mondays there? I'd prefer a three day weekend(knowing me, I would even prefer a five day weekend).:D Btw, it would be great if you replied to the comments. I sure would love to know what you think about the comments.
@ alpine path
What would i feel, when someone else is sharing my view? GREAT!!!. I'm glad i could stir up some interest in you. I have read some articles on you blog. They are really good. I shall comment in the individual articles as and when they come.
btw, may i know who is this?
@ raja
lol!!! I have to agree my friend..i had to go through some tough times to take down the bitter truth that i can no longer feel the nocturnal bliss but get into the daily clockwork process.
Old habits..die hard..with a vengeance..these sleepless nights are its way of striking the revenge blow!
@vissu, thanks! I'd prefer the identity to be unknown. That way, you'd have an impartial view of the topic that I write on and the experience would be richer! Sure, I'd love to have your comments on my posts.
@ alpine path
Well..this is something new to me as well...anonymous readers. Exciting. Alright...lets keep it that way...but...tell me..do we know each other? or..put it this way...how did u bump into my blog?
@vissu, lol! answers to those questions would give it away! :D
Yet to read completely. 'll post you later. Welcome to blogosphere.
Rey Vissu,
You wrote an intelligent article (unconsciously :) ). I have nothing to comment (coz there is nothing in it) and I could go through the end of it. Good work. Keep them coming.
@ vasu
Thanks for the fresher's party!!
Forgive me for i have sinned writing an intelligent article(?),though unconsciously. I take an oath in front of my fellow bloggers never ever to commit such a crime!
Mondays are Bitches
