Is it going to be over?..

I really hope so.. Yes, I am talking about my Dubai trip. You must have an idea how bored I am with the whole thing.. I hate telling that I am coming back and then not doing it.. i have told twice and it has not happened.. now i have done the grave sin of letting people know a third time.. i mean, i dint want to.. but.. by the way, i dont want to pick a fight with the guy who said 'third time lucky'.. if it has been for others, i am also human..

So, on 18th may, i called up emirates to reschedule my ticket, to the 30th may. And this is what comes up, Sir, we do not have tickets to Hyderabad till 17th of June. What would you like to do Sir? took me sometime to understand that this was happening.. you have a flight to kolkata??.. can i get that one? let me see, sir.. yes, when would you like to.. blah blah..

woof, so it appears i am gonna flying in to kolkata, my home town..

i called her up and told her, will be in cal on 30th.. what??.. cal??.. what time??. how did this happen??.. babuji has magical effects, cause how do things like this keep happening e'time.. and how does he predict em?

called up ma, and told her that i cant come to hyd cause there are no tickets.. what what??.. no tickets??.. so what will happen.. how will you come..
i will come to kolkata.. what. kolkata.. kolkata.. ???
yes kolkata.. when? .. 30th.. +- 2 days.. shall we come to pick you.. please come...
please come and pick me.. i would be happy..

looking forward to it.. fingers crossed..

Its a trick..

I am bored.. and I need to do something to get my life back to track.. everything appears gloomy and kind of lazy.. I had been thinking about this latey and have been quite convinced that 'life sucks'. Its an effort to talk to people and i have been able to turn people off in the last few days by my 'life sucks' attitude..

Well, after sulking for about two weeks.. I kind of realized that something needs to be done about this.. It being so hot outside in Dubai these days, going out was not an option. Weighing all options(there werent many), I decided that going to the gym and having a thorough workout was the best option.. So I went to the gym today.. Somehow, everytime i go to the gym, which i do once every six months to keep in shape.. i find none of the machines/apparatus, whatever you call them, work for me.
This happens everytime.. and this is how it happens.. i go to any machine and try pressing on the button that says start.. and nothing happens.. so i go all around it trying to figure out if it is connected and all.. sadly, nothing seems to be wrong.. and it still does not work..
after around five minutes, when i have convinced myself and the others that something is grossly wrong with this one.. i get on top again and press some other buttons and it starts..

i am not sure, these silly machines seem to test me.. can they see me going around them.. i mean, if they didn't start at all, i could have claimed that somethings wrong with them.. but they start just when i feel like shouting aloud.. something seems to be wrong with this one..
