new love and new job

While on the topic of new love, here are some ways you can spot it.

1. Someone who has never treated you or anyone (and often skips a meal
himself) suddenly says, "I feel like treating you guys."

2. You see them on the cell phone for 25 hrs/day but you can never
hear them (even though they might be a hand's distance away).

3. Mention anything and they think you are talking abt their affair.
"Hey, that noodle was awesome," you say. "How did you know that X
makes amazing noodles?" they reply.

4. They smile and you see teeth that you never knew existed in human
beings (it's my guess that these are the teeth they later use for love
bites).

5. You hear extensive use of the phrase, "You all go ahead. I have
some IMPORTANT work!"


this is what ppl think at their offices when they remember college days


Gone are the days when we used to talk for hours with our friends.
Now we don't have time to say a HI.

Gone are the days when we played games on the road.
Now we code on the road with laptop.

Gone are the days when we stood to watch birds.
Now we see and hear them in mpeg files.

Gone are the days when we saw stars shining at night.
Now we see stars when our code doesn't work.

Gone are the days when we sat to chat with friends on grounds.
Now we chat in chat rooms.....

Gone are the days where we studied just to pass.
Now we study to save our job

Gone are the days where we had no money in our pockets and fun filled
on our hearts
Now we have the atm as well as credit card but with an empty heart

Gone are the days where we shouted on the road.
Now we dont shout even at home
