Back To Back Champions!!!




Champions Again!!! Back To Back Premier League Titles thereby equalling ManU's feat and beating the same ManU to actually do it!!! WooHoo!!! One of the headlines read, "Chelsea crush ManU to retain title" And boy did we crush them! Goals from Gallas, Cole (What a beauty of a goal Joe) and Carvarlho (Good work dude!)

But amid all the celebrations is the fact that the guy i want to be like when i grow up is not happy!!! Jose Mourinho has said he is not getting the recognition he deserves. And he does have a point! Everyone expects Chelsea to win the league and perhaps that makes it a bit less satisfactory for the BEST manager in the world! Jose...for what its worth, i think you are the best manager in the world! My support for Chelsea is all the more stronger because you are in charge there! Congratulations and dont let the hypochondriac British press get you down! (I particularly hate "The Insider" who writes for soccernet.com but more on him later)

Pick of me in Malta with my ever present Chelsea scarf. (Niki who is standing with me is actually a dyed-in-the-wool ManU fan)

PS
Off to Valborg tomorrow in Uppsala and had a REALLY good day with Ayda! She was so nice as to watch the game with me!

TGIF!!!

Yes Yes I finally got through this week!!! What a Week It was too! Shitloads to do and it seemed like only yesterday it was Monday. Does that mean i was having fun??? Well...maybe I was, hehehehehe

And the week has certainly ended on a high! We just got confirmation that we can have our team days on a Viking Line Cruise ship to Helsinki! Not a big deal eh? Well...its going to be totally free!!! Amit is totally responsible for this. MY Indian! I should do a special feature on him soon. Good Job Amit!

What else...? Well I managed to finish ALL my tasks for the week! Pat on the back for me. And finally Valborg!!! Been hearing about Valborg for almost a year now and i hope it lives up to all the hype. It is supposed to be the celebration of the first day of Spring and its basically people eating herring for lunch, with shots of schnapps (alcohol), getting drunk on champagne by 14:00 and generally just another opportunity to get sloshed! I have promised all the AIESECers in Sweden, that they will see another side of me during this Valborg.

And oh yes! Ayda is coming to town this evening as well. Will be really cool to see her again. She is originally from Iran and is a really cool person to hang out with. She will be coming from Gothenburg and also attend Valborg! Welcome to Stockholm Ayda! Us Stockholmers can show you a real good time if you would let us.

Now I just have to figure out where to go tonite! It is Friday afterall! TGIF!!!!

PS
The picture above is of me in the office banging away at my laptop. Well...I was banging away until Amit surprised me with the camera. What a cool pix huh?

Well Here I am still exploring what I can do on this whole bloggosphere! Visted Gauri Poswal's blog (she is the only one who has posted a comment on my blog) and found this personality test. SO I am JFK...hmmm I once had a discussion with a friend about that. If i was in a position of power, would i use it to get girls into bed? Well according to this test i would! Dont know as i agree though. But JFK and I certainly do have a lot in common. Handsome, suave, charismatic, and both Presidents (Yes! LCP does count)

Have a splitting headache!


Its a sunny day in April...and thank Goodness! Its been a pretty looooong winter and boy am I glad its over! I started jogging this week as i realized over Easter i have gained over 10kgs since i got to Sweden. And 8kg of it is ensconced around my middle. The remaining on my cheeks! SHAT! But now get up every morning and go out jogging. Thats the plan at least. And then i start blogging as well! Its a week for new things!

Still trying to get the hang of this whole blogging thing. My teammate Amit makes it look so easy...will get there eventually i guess. I am tentatively going to try and publish a picture of my team (Amit, Emma and Maria) from our last AIESEC conference in Stockholm. Lets see how it goes!

PS
Since i consider myself a bit of an intellectual AND a showboat to boot, you might find that reading my blog is almost as addictive as actually writing it (Gauri said it..not me)
