bang bang new year-----ring out the old and restart with new vigour

All of you--- mentally challenged guys...

wishing you a new and prosperous new year ahead. I will be travelling for VLSI conference- being conducted in Kolkata. Remember our old days of college- those were the good old days of celebration-- right???

kinda nostalgic. Well.... banga bang new year.....

how time flies......? fast... maybe

Suddenly I remembered- it is exactly 1 year ago I resigned from my job in Mechatronics and joined on 22nd December,2003 - CG-CoreEl. Basically i liked working with Mr. Mehta, but I felt i had no more challenges to fight for; kind of bored. AND, I wanted more money (see-- i am candid)- which i was ashamed to ask from Mechatronics. So I graduated from a small scale company to middle level company. But 1 year passed.... how fast it was. Acheived a lot this year... it was a good year for me. Learnt a lot. In short I am content, I did take a right decision.

Now talking of times- So many dates coming to mind- fleetingly- I used to keep diary that time ( BE- times in college)- those dates- 24th June, 1st July, 30th November(allow me to keep the reasons of the dates secret). why they were of year 2000. The year- when i did not much good- but took some bold decisions- which paved my way. i am proud that i did what the time demanded.so many other dates- gone by? when did i last talked with that freind? when did i last see him/ her. time passes.... nothing's permanent except change.

Why we should change?

I always feel that we the youth can make great difference to how we live- not only in our own country but in whole world. Let me tackle the local i.e.. in my country - India. We the youth- in age range of 20 to 30 are now more successful than our predecessors were. Well , majority. We achieve a lot in small time- still need more. This feeling of discontent is evident in all spheres and is hindering our growth as good human beings. We do good, but are not content. no inner peace. So Is n't it time to change ourselves

Infra structure------ bad?????

Well Bangalore infrastructure is bad.. did i say bad.. it is one of the worst possible. All roads are broen... well non existence is the word. I stay in Domlur and my office is in koramangala- a distance of 5 kms. sometimes it takes- 30 minutes to reach ..

sometimes i wonder- why we pay taxes. So that our corrupt ministers have a foreign joint???

This is the case with the IT capital- one of the most advanced part of the country- what is the case with our other 'normal 'places......

horror.....

But on positive note- i beleive things will get better, when we just take things in our hand and throw out the currupt system.

hum drum- busy - seazy- easy life????

Windy roads, dark skies.. romantic bangalore saturday

Bangalore with all it's trappings of technology and high- funda- high- fi- lifestyle.... suffers from clogged roads, bad traffic and people like me- who have made it their home. Morning was very quite- it is windy and very cloudy. I really like Bangalore- but need more money to enjoy it in full splendour. It is a costly city-- damn it... rents are exorbiant. Foods are not cheap- unless- you like to have south indian fare everytime. Lonely but romantic for bachelors like me. May be it is full of people- chronic workalcholic like me.

Job of sales engineer is like that only - i guess- however you progress you can never sit still. Always a sense of insecurity- always some tenders to be filled up, some extra works. Gosh, have to finish the assignments- I have an added thing- I am doing my part time MBA along with the job. Have to finish so many things- the days should have more than 50 hrs...... for people like me.
But I need to manage my time well, i need to be more disciplined.
