Last sunday I was writing on coming to Bangalore
And voila!! here I am, waiting for getting home! Its been 5 awful days and 5 awful nights. i miss my family a lot, and thats onereason why i am looking forward for this flight. well, know what. had a nice time in ECC. I will tell u the fun part. Well, i got this ECC room mate who was a fresher at my company. He thought of me as a fresher too!! Awww kick my looks! He was quite friendly with me initially and then in a conversation, he casually asked.... "So, when did you join Infy?" And i answered, well, around some 5 and half years ago! His eyes gorged out, his jaws dropped. It looked as if I had blurted out some curse. He froze for a moment and then within 5 minutes he left the room in the pretext of meeting his friend... and alas!!! i didnt see him ever! Gosh! is 5 years of exp such bad? or am i too old in the industry? i started pondering and well, err, I dont know what to say! maybe i would have behaved the same way had i been his shoes!
hi hi.. u never know right!

when you are new at work, u are just fresh and you dont know much of the policies or the hierarchies. I knew new guys who were quite over smart, and i also knew kids who were crybabies. well, i dnt know which category he belonged to, but he made it a point to enter the room only after i sleep, and that is around 12 or 1 in the night. and he would keep sleeping till i move out of the rom.... aaaaaaaah!!! its a pity watching the Indian Premier League all alone!!!

Grrrrr. why did i screw it up! hmm, anyways thats life isnt it?

btw, i also had a good time, hanging around in the campus and doing some bird watching! Errr.. dont you dare take it in another sense. I meant real "birds" and not anything else. When i was in college friends used to freak out in well known junctions and would spend hours bird watching. in those days, bird meant lass!
Reminds me of a popular kid song that Mishy loves to listen over and over again!!!


Yankee Doodle went to town riding on a pony
Stuck a feather in his hatAnd called it macaroni.
Yankee Doodle keep it up Yankee Doodle dandy
Mind the music and the step And with the girls be handy.

Father and I went down to camp Along with Captain Gooding
And there we saw the men and boys As thick as hasty pudding.
Yankee Doodle keep it up Yankee Doodle dandy
Mind the music and the stepAnd with the girls be handy

There was Captain Washington Upon a slapping stallion
A-giving orders to his menI guess there was a million.
Yankee Doodle, keep it upYankee Doodle dandy
Mind the music and the stepAnd with the girls be handy.

Voila!!!

I hate my company's policy. It doesnt allow me to blog in public. And thats left me somewhat crippled. Think about going to a cyber cafe just to check you personal mails!!Duh.. makes me sick. But thats what I just did today. Am terribly bored. Experimented with a real horrible film - Pranayakalam (A typical mall art film) and it nearly drove me crazy!

Didnt wanna take no risks today so thought about checking out the Infy campus. Stopped working quite early, say around four and then started loitering around the significant campus. Build to lure, as they say.. Boy oh Boy I was lost in the magnanimous constructions hand picked by none other than our own mentor Mister N R N. And aaaaaaaah! now i realize why we get such low incentives!

Fountains and glass blocks everywhere. This indeed is not the ground I walked upon some three years ago.. Boy, it has changed, and changed such a lot! But one thing that I pitied about myself is that there were no more of my friends in this so called mega life company! There was not a single face i recognized as i walked through my old buildings and the good ol food courts.

My! :( It made me nostalgic... to walk alone... on the land one trodden along with my sweetheart! My oh My!!! its gonna make me cry. I avoid getting too much sentimental and rush off to the Microsoft products store in one of the Infy Malls. I couldnt find anything that would fit my little pocket, so i get out of the place as soon as i could.

And there! back to pangs of lonliness... i decided to get out of campus and explore the surroundings... and then i chanced upon this cafe! so here i am... typing out a blog when i know for sure no one would be reading this! :) hi hi hi.. thats the game called life!

ciayo!
gotcha go... this place is lousy and stinky too.... and over crowded. God i think i got claustrophobia...R..u..n .. for your livesssssssssssss

Waiting at the Trivandrum Airport to catch the Bangalore Flight is not something that I fancy. Especially when that accounts to leaving my wife and little daughter back at home alone. I am a family man and I always like it that way. Work helps me provide bread and butter to my family, but each day, each night.... it is just my family that makes me live each day. I have always given second preference to my work. Just because it doesnt help me be happy.

Anyways, i know how my next week is going to be. Sad and lonely :(
Booooooh :(
