Buh-bye email

Nah not from the blog world but from where I work. I got transferred to another hotel of the same chain and so I wrote this below goodbye email. Everyone ESPECIALLY the GM found it funny. Tell me what you think of it (read: good opinions only. Bad 'uns can write their own good bye email to me!) -

"Hi guys!

Finally an e-mail wherein I do not have to be very formal. This email might sound a bit cliched but let me start anyway. As you all know (hopefully) that I am getting transferred to "Hotel Name" (you actually think I will give out the name on a public blog? Ever heard of stalkers?) and today is my last day. Well, actually its my “clearance day”.

First of I would like to apologize to anyone to whom I might have been rude to (which is hopefully never) and for my mistakes (which unfortunately are quite a bit).

Second, I would like to thank each and everyone of you for all the support, fun, jokes, parties and of course work which everyone has given me. This has been my first work place ever and to be honest I was not sure when I first joined here. As everyone knows I cribbed and whined and cried on some days but whaddya know? I got attached! It is a bit difficult for me to leave this office and all the friends I have made here. I have learnt a lot here in terms of work and in terms of, well, not work. I do not know what impact I have made here but whatever it is I hope it is good. If not, at least everyone will still talk about me (sigh!)

As you all must have already guessed I have never been very good at this “Archies Gallery” stuff and I would really love to write about everyone here individually but it is going to take time and I have to run to HR. I swear before I leave I will definitely do so.

As they say now a days, “after you accept the Facebook Friends request then you become friends” or something like that. What I am trying to say is you can reach me on Facebook / Orkut / Gtalk / Gmail through meghag20@gmail.com or Skype. You can find my Skype id below in my signature for your kind perusal!!!!! The same has been highlighted in red. (Yeah yeah I realized my signature for the Skype Id is not there. Get the hint!)

Really going to miss this place (sniff!) (I swear on my shoes and back!)

Take care guys!"

Well? Whaddya think?

One of my shorter blogs.....

LIFE SUCKS.....

Experience is the BEST Teacher!

I REALLY think the above quote was made by a person who lived on bad luck to make himself/ herself feel better and to support the other people who survive on bad luck. Now do not get me wrong. I am in NO WAY surrounded by bad luck but it so happens that some incidences in my life (small incidences) make me wonder....... oh and I also learn from them......

1) This happened when I was in school. I had this MAJOR 100% adolescent teenage crush on one of my then close friends. We were pretty thick. I am not the types who makes her friends her brothers. Anyway after a year of being classmates we were shuffled when we graduated to the next class. I still had the major-crush-of-the-year. "Rakhi Day" came and he came running to me in the corridor, "Hey! Where's my rakhi?" FML!

2) I am currently on this major bed rest. NEVER EVER drink any drink while lying down. It goes in your nostrils and in your head and as soon as you get up it comes out rushing from the same spot all over your touch phone. ESPECIALLY something aerated.

3) I have been living in this city for a year. Never has any place given me so many problems. One tip from my side: IF you have never had pimples or boils on your face during those hormonal-changing-extremely-annoying-puberty-introducing-horrible-looking-teenage years, always ALWAYS be prepared to have them during your mentally-stable-good-looking-twenty-something years.

4) Those things really hurt.

5) Never try to show people how strong you are by picking up heavy objects. You just might be on the bed for 3 months after that.

6) Poker straight hair is awesome and causes envy is some people which is good. But do not get them curled and if you do always check in a mirror before flaunting them. It might so happen that within half an hour of curling them they might straighten again and you wouldn't know and would be showing them off to all your extended family for 2 hrs just to get awkward-my-gawd-she-has-finally-lost-it look.

7) NEVER get drunk and try kissing a person whom you have been crushing for a few months thinking he/ she will start seeing stars after you get physical. They will just get up and say no and push you towards some random person.

8) Never attempt a wannabe pole dance when you are drunk thinking it will be funny and not remember it the next day. Chances are before you wake up, the whole world would have seen it 'cuz your friend thought it will be funny to click a snap of you at that moment.

9) ALWAYS be prepared for good looking people in the places you least expect to find them ESPECIALLY when they are in an elevator and you want to get into it. The doors will close with you being sandwiched in between and trying to make this really uncool wriggle to get out before you are squeezed to death.

10) Never ever get close to flame. When you hear that sizzling sound it means your hair is getting cooked.

Yes my dear students, these are some of the things I have learnt in my 20 something years f existence on Earth. Would love to gain knowledge from yours!!!!!
