The End of an Era


The 20th league title won, with 4 games to spare
the man never knew the meaning of fear
the chewing gum and the affable face
the fans love his style and grace
the season is over, and his time is done
but we will always be proud of the laurels he won
he leaves Old Trafford with a void too big to fill
for he is the one who taught Manchester United to go for the kill
next season, when the crowd returns
there will be a new coach and it will be a new dawn 
but more than that, it will mark the end of an era,
The era of Sir Alexander Chapman "Alex" Ferguson.

A new beginning...

A new journey was embarked upon 2 months back. 11th February will never be forgotten. I doubt anyone would have felt so happy after putting in his papers. Anyways let bygones be bygones. This is ‘my new beginning’ as I have moved to a new city, a new job, a new life :)

The new city is cool though the weather is nothing like what people boasted about - ya, Bangalore is hot during summers, have not been to many places but loved Bak Bak Bar (the LIT is superb) and Fenny's Lounge (the ambience, the music and the crowd rocks), but the 11.30 p.m. shut down is not happening. 
The new house is too big for a person like me cos i never leave my room, the kitchen is useless when you don't cook, and without a maid, cleaning is a pain but I love Airtel for the awesome mobile plan and the broadband plan (8 mbps is heaven for a social media and TV series addict like me)
The new workplace is kinda cool - flexible timings, creative work, some cool sports and fun loving colleagues (and some not so cool ones too), a refrigerator with lots of coke and no dress code.
For now, my world is immersed in a melange of social media, seo, sem, ppc, adwords, newsletters, designs and so on and so forth as I move forward towards my goal of becoming a new age digital marketing specialist – a digital media whiz.
Ciao till the next post :-)
