It been a couple of months since I last blogged.
I almost forgot how relaxing it can be!
So to update in a nutshell, Christmas and New Years was fantastic! Spent this with Tasha and her family. Her Uncle dressed up as Santa Clause for the kids and drinks were flowing all new years eve.
The best bit though was spending these two important dates with her Majesty, Miss Lalji!
So fast forward and we are now in 2009.
I need to set some goals, no matter how tedious they may be.
* I'm 24,
* I have my own place and independence
* I have a steady income
* I have a car I love
* I have a stable relationship with a girlfriend I love even more
* I have a job that I enjoy thoroughly. The atmosphere, people and opportunities are great
* I've quite smoking and rarely drink
* I play a lot more sport now
Here are my goals for 2009
* Complete my CCNP qualification, ideally before my 25th birthday
* Complete my Palo Alto qualification
* Play football at least twice a week
* Play badminton at least once a week
* Swim and run at least once a week
* Try eat more healthy - Cut down on sugars and fatty foods
* Once my cardio has improved, start going to the gym.
* Go out socially at least once a fortnight
* Keep more frequent contact with friends and family
* Start a dream journel!
So these are my goals which I hope to start first thing next Monday (currently nursing a foot injury).
Wish me luck!

08th October - Life is more meaningful
It been a while since my last blog!
Work has been quite steady and fulfilling, but more so is the other aspects of my life. I am now regularly playing badminton, football and working out in the gym.
In addition, I often find myself going to the movies 2-3 times a week and I find that I have more time to play my PSP and more time to enjoy my girlfriend cooking.
(on that note, Sunny recommends you watch the following moves: Eden Lake, Taken)
Suddenly my life seems to have more meaning to it.
I enjoy the company I am with, both in my work environment and my home / social environment.
The best bit about all this, is that I get to do most of these activities with my significant other. I like the fact that we share a wee bit of common ground i.e. badminton, gym, movies, cycling, and healthy eating to say the least.
I couldn't ask for a better girlfriend, thank you Tasha.
Well October is now setting in, which means sunlight will cease to exist come 4pm!
What does this mean for me?
I am no longer cycling to work :-(
On the upside, I get to spend the morning on my commute to work playing my PSP.
I suppose the lack of cycling will now be made up by the regular slot of football, gym and badminton sessions.
Well I'm hungry now so it off to Tesco in pursuit for nutritional sustenance that will not only quash my hunger for a reasonable amount of time but will also satisfy my taste buds.
Cadbury cream egg it is then!

10th September 2008 - Books Books and more Books!
I ordered my free copy of JUNOS Enterprise Routing, published by O'Reilly.
I wonder if this will just collect dust just like my free and signed copy of "The Money Diet " by Martin Lewis AKA Money Saving Expert.
Hm.
Back to writing up these reports for my technical director. I have an important demonstration tomorrow which will probably be the highlight for tomorrow's blog

09th September - My GF, The Techno Whiz
As many may know, my profession is IT. So it is naturally assumed that I would be pretty clued up with all the new gimmicks that the Internet unleashes on a day to day basis
From Facebook to Hotmail, you would expect between me and Natasha, who's field is fashion, I would be the most techno savvy one! I would be the one holstering the latest gizmo's and gadgets!
But for reasons known beyond me, it is SHE who is with the techno times! Not I!
What? You don't believe me??
Well, why don't you ask her yourself!
You could ask her in a number of ways, here are a few to list
1) Write a message on her wall via "Facebook"
2) Send her a message via "Facebook" or "HI5"
3) Send her an instant message via "MSN" or "Facebook"
4) Video conference with her via "MSN" or "Skype"
5) Send her an email at her "Hotmail" or "GMail" account
6) Post a message on her "YouTube" Channel
7) Leave her a comment on her "BlogSpot"
8) Drop her an "SMS" or "MMS"
9) Use the "Ask the seller a question" feature on her "eBay" page
Or if she not too busy pumping her "IPOD" with the latest "ITunes" from her "Laptop" or "Desktop", you could ring her on her "Mobile" phone.
That not all you can ask her.
Want to know;
1) How to get from the toilet to the living room? She can give you directions using "Google Maps"
2) What train to catch? She will tell you all you need to know using "TFL Journey Planner"
3) The history of King Henry VIII? She will look it up on "Wikipedia"
4) How to build a PC? She will "Google" it
5) The best deals at Asda? She will search this on "MoneySavingExpert.com"
Yep, there is no doubt about it. My girlfriend Kung-fu is way better than mine! She is the techno-savvy one!

08th September - Movie Bonanza!
This weekend left me feeling really chuffed and pleased with myself.
I managed to watch 3 movies at the cinema and procure free coke at the cost of £0.00 !
The movies were down to using my Friend's unlimited cinema pass but the free coke was down to the genius embedded in the very core of my living fibre!
It was as simple as pie.
Take an old coke carton (plenty lying around in the cinema), fill the left over coke with water and then simply take it to the counter and tell them that it is flat.
They then give you a new one!
Bargain? Nope. Just pure genius!
So aside from Saturday night movie bonanza, me, Tasha, Lucky and Simran went to Nando for a slap-up chicken fiesta!
This was then topped by a buy one get one free Pizza for the evening's nourishment.
Healthy eating? Of course!
Oh well Monday morning....
