Kahani: FLASH DRIVE ka Flash

Last Tuesday, I woke up in the early hours with a big question in mind - WHERE IS MY FLASH DRIVE.?
This flash drive was given to me by my previous company as part of 'On boarding' session.
Flash:
On Sunday (2 days earlier) I had been to a cyber cafe (since there is no internet connection in my home) and I happened to use my flash drive while I was surfing.
I returned home after surfing web for more than 2 hrs and I happily forgot about the flash drive.
And now after 3 days, I woke up with this question "where is my pen drive?" @ 5.30 in the morning...
I tried searching at home, since there was no power I couldn't find it anywhere....
And I sat there analyzing the whole episode, with a bunch of questions, more like a movie recap, while sleeping.

1. On which machine I was working? And what was the time?
2. How many people would have used the same machine for the next 2 days?
3. How many people used the USB port?
4. If anyone opened the drive, how about the documents and snaps it had?
5. What about the confidential docs?
6. What will happen if I lose that? Whom should I ask?
7. Tried to recall, whether I safely removed the drive from CPU........ Hmm didn't get a single clue about what happened on that day.

Since I had not much of an option, I waited for the power to come back and then searched the whole room; luckily I found the drive near Bhagavad Gita.
I was relaxed and I was really happy.

But the question was, why I got this question in the early hours of my day, that made me woke up? What makes me to think like this? Am I alert? Do I over care for my things? Or over cautious about my belongings? Why is my subconscious mind working so much on this?
Sometimes I do have a questions like

1. Did I brush today?
2. Did I lock the bathroom when I took my bath?
3. Whether the front door is locked or not

Am quite skeptical......why am I like this?
Why can’t I live like others - cool and calm, without hassles.... ??

Sir.. looks like U r getting urself ready for the marriage..
U got to be over-cautious once U get married.. and looking at this blog..things look promising ; )

Just kidding : ).. don't worry this is all quite normal.. sub-conscious is always running behind things that we ignore in our routine(while we are wide awake) life..

Well :) I also feel the same, when I dont find my things in place... Its coz of the attachment u have towards them - rather the value u have for them!

N the questions - its coz... of over cautiousness :)
More the concern - more the questions...
basically, such questions arise, when u feel unsecured...

ex: when u plan for a stay in a Hotel - n U happen to go for an evening stroll... n u suddenly encounter a thought.. have I locked the room properly, What If something gets lost...

So on.. :)


Nice writing Chennai Chethan

Interview kit

Have u guys ever heard about Interview kit? I will tell you how this concept came to my mind, as soon as I decided to quit my current job, I started applying for jobs and I started giving interviews. In my first interview, I reached the interview venue @ 9 AM, but they took my interview at around 4 PM in the evening and it was then I started to think about ‘Interview Kit’ During the waiting time, I was thirsty and wanted to have water, I had it, then I felt like having juice, for that I need go to cafeteria which would take 15 min and I was a little scared thinking that they might call my name for the interview. Finally I was not in a position to resist my feeling to have a juice, so I decided to go to the cafeteria, which was located on the 6th floor of that building after reaching over there, I felt hungry so I decided to have something along with juice. I was shocked after seeing the menu and the price, but then I was very hungry so I took two samosa’s and juice and while coming bac

Some rules of life

Have a firm handshake. Look people in the eye. Sing in the shower. If in a fight, hit first and hit hard. Keep secrets. Never give up on anybody. Miracles happens everyday. Always accept an outstretched hand. Be brave. Even if you're not, pretend to be. No one can tell the difference. Avoid sarcastic remarks. Choose your life's mate carefully. From this one decision will come 90per cent of all your happiness or misery. Make it a habit to do nice things for people who will never find out. Never deprive someone of hope; it might be all that they have. When playing games with children, let them win. Give people a second chance, but not a third. Become the most positive and enthusiastic person you know. Loosen up. Relax. Except for rare life-and-death matters, nothing is as important as it first seems. Be a good loser. Be a generous winner. Think twice before burdening a friend with a secret. When someone hugs you, l
