Ringtones

Why do we choose to play a particular ringtone? Is it because of the following reasons?

We like it and we drown are thoughts in the b’ful music.

To show off that I have the latest ringtone in my cell.

To attract attention, at least this is how I will get noticed!

To show what’s playing on my mind.

To wake people in and nearby cubicles as they are fast asleep.


What ever may be your reason, it's quite irritating when you are on a con call and the person next to you is away and his/her cell phone is buzzing away. Phew!

You Know You're Growing Old When...

You know you are growing old when one or more of the following is true. See for yourselves :D

You keep talking to yourself while working or otherwise.

Even while walking to and fro you keep mumbling to yourself.

You have to add reminders and stick post-it notes to remind your to-dos for the day or for the week.

You maintain a checklist and strike off the task that have been accomplished at EOD (personal/professional)

You refer to people who are a year or two younger than you as kids.

You fervently pray and expect that all your plausible and implausible wishes come true, becoz you’re running short of time.

You decide to stay hungry than to irate your tummy with spicy food

You wear a grumpy expression on New Year’s Eve, since you know the next working day is going to be as hectic as any other day. Why pretend to be happy?

Saving Spree

How would you curb your expenses and save yourself from a financial pitfall?
Pretend to forget your Debit/Credit card at home.
Carry minimum amount of cash in your purse/wallet.
Minimize eating outside.
Make a budget for every month and stick to it no matter what.
Set savings goals on a weekly basis.Eliminate excessive coffee drinks/or cut down on unhealthy beverages.
Quit smoking and boozing.
Cut down on apparel/footwear/jewelry shopping (need not run to a mall every time there’s a sale).
Cut down on buying expensive books. Instead take a lifetime membership in a library.
Set an alarm and let it buzz every 15mins when you are out for shopping.
Who cares, I need not cut down on my expenses! After all “Money alone sets the entire world in motion.”
