A passing fancy

A year has gone by since I posted my last one.Thats quite tells about my passion for writing.Its not that life was at a standstill all this while or I was working on a secret mission.I was busy with the mundane stuff,spending time with family and friends (more friends than family would be more specific) and having those odd bad days at office.
Let me tell you about my current whereabouts.I am back in Sydney.The city hasn't changed much since I left a couple of years back except that you get to see a few more chinese and a double the Indians since.And yes the apartment rents have nearly doubled as well.And winter are chilly and windy.Its 4 degree today !!!
There are quite a few things that have not changed...I still love to dine out,I still hate exercise and I still don't know I love or hate my job.
My recent recollection of important world events are IPL2 & Indian Election.While I started passionately following the IPL2 but lost interest half way.The India Election fever took over.What a exciting few days.I was glued to CNN-IBN for a couple of days as the results poured in and post election analysis coverage was aired.Elections wouldn't have been half as exciting without controversies and with the emergence of heroes and anti-heroes.While I was drawn by Rahul Gandhi's charisma I was equally impressed by Varun Gandhi's guts.If 2004 results were surprising the 2009 was shocking !! Hope we get to see some good governance and the 9-10% growth story.
Another exciting milestone in my life was recent Roger Federer's French Open win.I have been a Fedex fan since he took over the top spot.While others have caught up Federer still remains the only magician on a tennis court.
One thing I must share with you...its not a secret but kinda of personality thing..I get this passing fancies when I get hooked on to something for a few days or months until something else takes over,,and then some other things and so on.
My recent ones have been Russell Peters shows in Youtube (there is this Chinese vs Indian act)Its hilarious. I am also watching the Ellen Degeneres show.I find her extremely funny !
