On Turning a year older

Birthdays are a handy guideposts to stop, reminisce and look ahead. As you turn older, you are plagued with a question: am i too old for this and that? Fact is, it’s probably not too late for anything, really. But it certainly feels that way, sometimes.
A long time ago, i decided that for my birthday I'm going to ask for things I know I can't have so that I won't be disappointed when I actually don't get them. Here is this year's list:
1. My company's stock hitting $100
2. Free moving traffic in Bangalore
3. Corruption free government
4. High Tolerence levels for all Indians, especially drivers in bangalore
5. My Boss agreeing to whatever i say or do!

Today's Google doodle made me realize that i share my birthday with Walter Adolph Georg Gropius (May 18, 1883 – July 5, 1969) who was a German architect. Along with Ludwig Mies van der Rohe and Le Corbusier, he is widely regarded as one of the pioneering masters of "modern" architecture. Gropius designed his famous door handles, now considered an icon of 20th century design and often listed as one of the most influential designs ever.
