Its been a while since I blogged...!

Twitter is set to eat up all the blogging sites...! As far as my opinion is concerned...I prefer tweeting over blogging. I can simply type in what I am doing in less than 140 characters and viola my friends are updated ... I don't have to open a blog site like this and write - edit and fool proof ...
Finally the year end has come and Harsh for the first time ( after I've joined) went on a tour. Ryan is away in Goa. So I have unofficially two weeks of holidays and I've not yet figured out what to do. I need to do lot shopping but don't know where to ... I searched every nook and corner of Megamart (Banshankari) but couldn't find a single shirt of my size. Thats the disadvantage of staying away from the main stream...
I called my Dad today.. He is not coming home for the Makara Sankranthi...Its broken family again...I miss him again...

Since I started taking rest and don't put my brain to work anymore, it is getting degraded day by day. I, of late observed that I am loosing the power to remember things.. especially numbers and nouns which are not logically connected.. If someone asks me wats my mobile number... It aches like hell in the head for a while and then only I can attempt to recollect it...

Getting older huh..! but this is too early... and long way to go.. Lets see how I am gonna handle this...

Hidden delicacies in Bangalore

I have been waiting to put all this information in front of you...
I have seen very remote places where you can get very cheap and tasty - found nowhere else kind of delicacies which everyone needs to know...!
I have never tasted a butter fruit juice - very taste of it makes me run away from it but my friend had seriously suggested me to eat (rather drink) it at this place. It is just Rs15 but I felt I should give him more

I have one other place where you can get tasty chicken rolls at throw away prices ... check this near Mathikire road at the backside of IISc

enjoy maadi
and you will appreciate me after visiting these places

Invitation to a geeks wedding

Yesterday my Software Engineer friend from Kolkata sent me an invitation. It goes like this

Hi,

I know,

• You are the pillar of your project/ software company/college. Or

• All the modules need your input to execute properly. Or

• Students will get disappointed without your lecture. Or

• Whole wireless network will come down if you take leave. Or

• All clients will be in problems in case of your absence. Or

• Roads, buildings and dams will collapse if you are not at work.

But, it is my marriage and it is your responsibility to be there.

So, stop all your development, maintenance and bug-fixing works. Plan your trip. My wedding occasion doesn’t contain catch blocks for No Time Exception, Too Busy Exception, Next Week Delivery Exception and other runtime errors.

Please consider this as my personal invite and do grace the occasion. Please find attached the Wedding card for the details.

Thanks & Regards

So funny and so on to the point. I couldn't skip as I have no handler for the exceptions

I just don’t have time for you

I've no time at all but I would like to say you something

See you later

Please Ignore!

Journey called life at cross roads

It's been a year since I joined Oracle... You may not believe me If I say... I've completely transformed after joining Oracle. No workouts and no sports. Only physical work I do now is kicking foot ball in the room every time I get frustrated with the things around.

I should not blame Oracle for this... Few things I like about Oracle are

1)Good Managers. Oracle has got really good (fantastic managers if I have to say truth) managers. My manager is even better.

2) Pays you heavy even when you don't do anything and keep on breaking the labels

3) I would have left Oracle with in 6 months if I had had a different team than this.

but one thing is for sure. I don't have future here. I don't belong here. Just looking around for other options...

PHD... ? Its a struggle for another 5 years. I don't think I can bear it any longer

Image Processing?... I'm unable to save a single paisa with what I am getting here. How could I survive if I go for IP jobs which pays me only half of what I get here.

Lets see how the wind blows!

I lost my debit card and I wanted to block it the earliest. I called
every SBI customer number that is there on the net. Interestingly all
the numbers were ringing but none of them were answered. Dear sir...
Kindly give me the numbers which are being picked up. Thank you very much
regards
RAM

Found interesting.....
It took SBI customer care 6 months to reply back to me on very simple query like this. Yet interesting thing is I haven't got my ATM card yet...
