Vocab booster 1.1

To improve my vocab and to update my blog more frequently I am posting new words and trying to create a story which will continue with every new word. Should have created a new blog for this. All the best to me. Word courtesy: www.dictionary.com You can't sue me now!

Today's word.

irascible \ih-RASS-uh-buhl\, adjective:

Prone to anger; easily provoked to anger; hot-tempered..

Here it begins..

On the express highway, a black merc was in a hurry. The driver needed to reach Pune in record time. Mr. Alabaster was the definition of punctuality, anybody late would invite hell from this irascible man, the same applies even if he himself was late.....

The Empty Page

What to write? A million words in mind but nothing on paper. Scattered thoughts but nothing concrete. Source of inspiration, nothing. Should I write about a song, I am listening to.

Home very very away from office.

Shifted to my new place in Navi Mumbai. Sounds far right? But it isn’t. 1 hour 15 minutes to reach office. Manageable. Changing 3 trains to reach office. Not bad at all. Am I complaining?

Marry a rich girl (Too late to do so for me at least) Play the lottery (Tried. Not working) Build strong networking. Get rich people in your contact list and sell insurance to them or become a middleman and conduct business. (Difficult for someone like me.) The only choice I have is to work hard, work smart. Jump up the ladder. Do whatever it is to be successful in your profession. Current scenario. I am not doing that bad. But then I am not doing that good also. Philosophy: Sometimes wealth and fame don’t go hand in hand. You need to make a choice. (I think this has no connection to the above. But hey it’s my blog.) T...

Is a chaddi required?

Seriously how important is a brief in advertising. On one end people say think beyond the brief on the other the same demands one.What is the importance of a brief that's just a formality, that has no value addition from the brand servicing guy? When a creative guy works on a brand for say a year and a half, does he really require a brief? These insights are based on my experience in mid-size agencies as I have never worked in the top twenty. I maybe wrong but then what if i am right.
