Life in Auto-Pilot mode

Yes, that's how i describe my life for last few months, call it easy or call it boring. Sometimes you don't have things in your hand, sometimes you don't want to take them. I am finding difficult to match up with the pace of life. After two years sprint at IIT, the job somehow seems slow and low. In past my most of the nights have gone with the thought about the challenges of tomorrow, the emotion about failures or achievements (no matter how small), the fear and the anxiety. But in last few months i sleep with a plain mind just like a blank page asking to write something on it.

I am still the worst when it comes taking decision and people around me know it well. Is it Phd or MBA? India or Abroad? Bangalore or Mumbai? Indian food or Chinese? KKR or DD? Now or never? They say follow your heart and you get the answer, but the heart with divided loyalties and strong head makes it worse. Jack of all and master of none doesn't help either. I wish i could outsource my decision making system.

Cooking has been stress buster for me. Thanks to my mom i could learn enough to serve myself for 7 days in row with variety of food. Jokes apart but i never thought cooking could be so much fun, but i hate to do the dishs :(.
I haven't been regular to gym as i used to be, still go there discretely to give my instructor his share of surprises. Worked a little on running. Running is the thing i enjoy the most. I took part in sunfeast10K marathon, for the first time i participated in competitive marathon race. I struggled more than i thought i would, the humidity and some of the section of the track were not easy for ametures like me. I could not i achieve my goal of 1:15:00 which i missed by 10:00. My experience of this year will surely make me better equip for the next race, which i am eagerly awaiting.

Tried a lot of new restaurants and new places but i am lazy enough not to write about them, same implies for movies. I though i would take my photography little seriously but could not manage more than 2 pics/month. This blog is my first attempt to take my self off the auto-pilot mode, Lets see how far i can go.
