Race to the flag.

After crowning Alonso as the new F1 Champion, the nail biting finish and all the expectations have simmered down in F1 but things are just hotting up in the WRC and by the looks of it, it's gonna be Loeb again this year. With 4 rounds remaining, Loeb looks set to take the crown again.
After the sad death of Michael Park in the Rally of GB, all the drivers will be a bit wary of the dangerous Japanese circuit. Will this be another feather for Citroen? I, for one, do think so.

The A1 Grand Prix made it's debut at Brands Hatch and this could cause a flutter in the F1 world. A1 GP is certainly interesting, old fashioned (Lola) and the only thing that matters is the driver's ability and experience. - This could very well lead to a transition of fans from F1 to A1!

Hail the King!

Hail the new King of F1!

The search for the heir to Schumacher's throne has been found! Of all the dashing young knights, Alonso proved to be the worthy winner and F1's youngest Champion was crowned in Brazil. The Spaniard finished third behind Montoya and Raikkonen - who was the only other title rival - to clinch the world championship.

Some even consider Alonso to be on par with Schumacher and Senna - though there is place for arguments and debates! Of course, he is a great and worthy Champion, but can he match Schumi and Senna? Only time will tell. He sure does have the capabilities, so he might soon become another name synonymous with F1!

Just when things were looking to be too monotonous and with the A1 championship looming large and threatening to put F1 out of the picture, a new prince has been crowned. This makes things interesting in the fast and furious world of F1.

Enough said, This year belongs to the Spaniard - a welcome break from the routine of the German on the podium!

Laws of Attraction

nice read...

In Law of Attraction Pierce B says ”if you truly love someone, then we must unselfishly give them anything they ask” and Somebody once told me that "Finding the right person is very hard and very wrong ... it is best to be the right person for the one you love and start from there ... you'll always end up disappointed when you set standards and define a "right person" for you ... and don't rush things... because somewhere somehow God is preparing somebody for you." You can never be perfect ... the person you love can never be perfect ... but both of you can be perfect through love and prayers, and your love can be perfect through the both of you. But, no relationship is complete without God ... . that's why we have marriage ... it's a bond not only between you and your loved one ... but also with God.

Our relationships fail not because (s)he's not the right person ... it's because we expected too much and we decided on our own ... let God do the work ... you may call it waiting time ... but while you are waiting ...pray. Let God guide you always ... He knows better. No, He knows best. Love is not what you think it is ... Sometimes we mistakenly feel that our first relationship will be our last. Because we are overwhelmed with joy and romance, we forget to learn the meaning of true love. Some are saying that love is unselfish, blind, unconditional or simply denying oneself for the sake of someone very important in our life. Others are saying love is immortal and can never be defined. When we think we're in love the first thing we almost wanted the whole world to know is that our love for someone very special can never be taken away from us. We say this phrase "You are the most wonderful gift from GOD I have ever received ... " After a terrible fight or sometimes even a petty quarrel we then say "You are the biggest mistake i've ever made for my entire life ... !!!!".

Now, how do you say and spell the word L-O-V-E? Are you really deeply into it?
Nobody can tell what love really is until experience speaks and whispers right into our ears. Most of the time, these love promises like "Forever, Till Death do us apart, etc." would end up "Never" and "We should partways,I'm no longer happy with you! My love for you is DEAD!!!". Many times we thought after having committed to someone and your trust to one another freezes down to zero degree "S/He ain't the right one. I should probably wait for the right one to come." But the big question anyone could not answer is "Is she/he the right one?" and "When is the right time?" That made us stick to whom we are with. Will you always be waiting for the right person to come and the right time to commit? A big YES is the answer. Don't be in a hurry to get into a relationship because you can never find love if you insist that you are already into it. Try to find time to really understand your real feelings, to know who you really are, and what you really want in a relationship. You're right, There is no such thing as a perfect relationship, but there's a compatible partnership that goes along with it. If you already knew that you're too big to fit into a small sized t-shirt, don't give it a try. You'll probably break it and pay for the damages you have made. If you knew and felt that the relationship will not last, don't go deeper into it. You'll just suffer the consequences and live like hell the rest of your life. It's really hard to say goodbye though, but you can't make it any better by just pretending you still have the same feelings. Try to let go and give yourself a chance to live life to the fullest. Give yourself a chance to grow and give your heart a much needed attention.Then you will find that you have made the right decision and you made it all by yourself. More frequently than not, we all act in a hypocritical manner for some reason. We call it love when we can't leave someone and see them crying as we try to let go. We are wrong, its just pity. We call it love when we're too attached and think that losing the one we love will somehow make us weak and unable to face the storms of life. We misunderstood, its just that we're too much dependent to them. We call it love when we give our whole life to them, the wholeness of us and imagined that if they leave no one would accept us and our past. We are mistaken, its just insecurity. But no matter what the definition is, the truth still remains that love isn't something you can buy nor beg. It is real and existing. You can't touch it but you can feel it in your heart. You can't find it, but it will knock before you when you least expect it to come. It can make you the happiest soul in heaven, but don't forget that it also can make you the most miserable person in the whole galaxy...

B'day bash?

The last day of August was a 'memorable' day in more than one way! On the brighter side, it was my 'B'day so had a bit of fun and lotsa goodies to eat! But the way it ended left much to be desired (in the mouth!).

After a rather tiring day at work, my friends and I decided to go out for dinner and the place selected was Chung-Hwa (a local Chinese joint) which we frequent. So nothing out of the ordinary was on the cards. We ordered for some Noodles, Fried rice (Because one of us was a veggie!) and chicken. Then I had this bright idea of ordering prawns and that was probably the beginning. Halfway through the Rice, I felt a queer taste in my mouth and to my horror, realised it was a huge lump of salt!! To make matters worse, I started feeling uneasy and knew I could take no more. Hoping it would make me feel better, we ordered Chinese Tea, and out came a tea pot with something similar to boiling water with small tea leaves strewn around! This was matched by miniature cups and the tea lasted for almost 4 rounds! We happily sipped the 'Tea' in between chuckles and finally 'managed' to finish it.

OK. So that was dinner. Soon, I started feeling really queasy and so parted after hasty byebye's and got into an auto. By the time I reached home, I had a severe case of Wheezing and an allergy of some kind - with swollen eyes!! This kept me in bed and -obviously- out of work for a day, but with a few good medicines and advice from my doc, I was back to my best soon!!

Phew! What a day! - my birthday!
