I still do remember the day the day on which I was christened as a CEGian and the day that decided that my destiny was in that campus for the next four years. The first day of Engineering counseling for 2005 +2 passouts.
I had a lot of dreams, most of them misguided by the illusions of my school teachers. I learned all those blissful dreams are just sham within months, yet college life was blissful in a different way.
I never ever imagined that I would fail in an examination. That happened in my 4th semester, when I got an arrear in Internet Programming, thought health reasons had it, yet I failed. I added 1 to my history of arrears. The worst part is my parents didn’t react terrified as expected. May be they anticipated that I would fail!!!
And ya that didn’t stop with it, I had another arrear in my 6th semester C#.Net and again I had severe fever the previous day. Nevertheless, when I attended placements, I had exactly 1 history of arrears and 1 current arrear.
Somehow I never let the arrears to drag along. I passed both those papers right the next attempt. As always I proved good in projects. I have completed my final semester with an A in our Final year project. Left alone our performance in the first review, at least I would have got an ‘S’
As soon as we came out of the Final review Pandi my team mate started shouting ‘You got an S grade”. Anyway I am perfectly satisfied with an A. just 2 months before the final review we were praying that we should pass in our final year project.
The notorious User Interface Design, I have never studied a word in that subject for the entire semester, literally not even a SINGLE WORD, God’s grace and our dear Gopal Sir, I had passed with a B in it.
And ya thus I have passed in all the subjects and now yes I AM AN ENGINEER.

Plans for hols
Ya now it’s just another exam and the project viva. After that, I am gonna have the longest vacation in my life before retirement. I have already written 2 posts on recession and hence I will have to wait for months before TCS calls me in.
So now I have a long time to spend. A real big vacation. So what I am gonna do?
First: My cousin N has hols for another couple of weeks due to elections. That guy has got a Honda Unicorn. So we will be traveling to the western ghats and check out the natural beauties, may have become fair n lovely beauties by now. Anyway some sort of beauties.
That guy claims to have stopped ogling at chicks. But never mind. He will still come and know what at least for vodka in the hills. Between I got a gilma( kinda hot) chick at mangalore as chat friend. So may be we ll check her out.
Second: After N’s hols he will get busy with college so I am gonna turn back to Chennai. Will go to French class and try to learn some French and may be some good French strategies to pick up a chick with the so called knightly chivalry.
Third: Join a Gym and get a lot of good stuff to eat and see whether I could add something on my bones that the French class chick might say, “you are a MAN”
At the end of the dream something stopped me. If a five letter word could stop all those chic dreams about chicks in a second, guess what it is, yes it is the least important and so unnecessary thing for a peaceful life and ya that’s

The little bride of Korea

I am worried that my blog is turning into a movie review site but I couldn’t resist it. I just finished watching ‘My Little Bride’. I had some lamentable things happened last night so couldn’t sleep. So I started watching this movie by 2.20AM this morning melancholically.
Actually I had this movie for almost a month in my laptop, but I somehow skipped watching it. I feel very happy about it that I had this movie now. I had already seen another Korean Movie “My Sassy Girl” that’s pretty and I have written my 3rd post on that movie.
This movie is as quaint and too touching. There are 1000s even millions of movie on love, romance etc but both these movies are very unique, at least amongst the movies I have seen. From where did these Koreans get all such beautiful things. I wish I marry a Korean girl (Hey not just because Boeun is cute lol).
Getting a 15yr old adolescent girl married to a college guy. That’s as horrible as it’s beautiful. Having a younger girl marry a older guy concept is very well answered by Sangmin’s maturity in dealing with Boeun and her love affair.
The way Sangmin makes Boeun understand of his feelings for her and the power of true love to break roadblocks like the BMW in NFS Most wanted are beautifully portrayed. The climax when Boeun opens up her heart to Sangmin right before the entire school on which she was once so scared is mind blowing.
I strongly do suggest you are not worth living without feeling this movie :P

Myself N the Director
I went home last friday. I was as usaul having fun going around the town in my Libero and again as usual a friend accompanied me. Deepak has finished his Visual Communication on my advice avoiding engg which is miles apart from him.
Deepak is so obsessed with photography, after all it's his profession. He used to take a lot of pictures of me in different poses in my mobile and ask me to take double the number pictures of him.
We had fun in the O.T. beach the upcoming harbor. The place is beautiful as I had already told you in the Kitty reaches 100kmph post. We took a lot of pictures of each other. Will sharer a few with you soon:-)

Recession Vs Charmee
I watched a movie after a very long time. Yup it has been more than a week, more than 200+ hours. I don’t know what on earth kept me so busy (lol).
Anyways today I watched the movie ‘Ladam’. We enjoyed the movie. Though the climax was a little dull it doesn’t matter. In general the movie was thrill, fun and enjoyable.
The best thing about the movie, Charmeeeeeee. Man I got obsessed. Myself and Achu started hallucinating at her exemplary well distributed beauty.
For every seen we esp. I felt like she is pinching my lil heart. For her every move we got completely moved.
At a point we got so envious about the hero that we even prayed he would better die at the hands of the villains. When Charmee kissed the hero we could hear our hearts break.
Near the end of the movie I decided I will give mom a copy of Charmee’s pic and ask her to look for a girl as beautiful as she is or at least half as beautiful as her.
Just then I realized, How long will it take for TCS to call me in? How long will I stay there before being kicked out? How long it will take for me to look for another job?
Finally what, where and how will I be after half a decade even if mom manages to find such a girl by then?
Recession destroyed all my dreams. No, no it stopped me from dreaming. I am now rolling on my bed unable to forget Charmeeeeeeeeee and regretting recession.

Recession Mocks me :-)

Some of you must know I got placed in TCS. I may very well have got placed in a so called dream job but for various reasons I preferred TCS and wanted to stay with TCS.
But it was not until a couple of months before that rumors about we getting called in will take nearly an year. So I decided to look for an alternative or at least a temporary job to keep me occupied.
So I registered with Naukri. I got 100s of mail recommendations and I did apply for them. Then last Monday I got a mail calling for a E-Commerce or business consultancy kind of a company. The profile sounded interesting but there is no mention about the package.
I seldom bothered the package and hence I decided to give it a try owing to the interesting job profile. The recruitment process was scheduled to happen for 3 days. I went in the afternoon of the 2nd day, wondering whether all the vacancies been filled.
There was a written test for 1 hr 15mins. Some aptitude questions and then verbal ability and then a 3 page essay writing. I completed the entire thing in 30-35mins. Feeling pride about my CAT preparation and my blogging abilities that I wrote the essay emotionally till the last line of the 3rd page provided.
My friend who sucks in English didn't make it to the interview. They also rejected many others. I was feeling proud about myself.
After a long wait I was called in for an interview. An avg looking lady may be around 26 or so, single for sure interviewed me. The interview was over before it started anyway I still boasted about my analytical and managerial skills :P
Then came the funniest part. I was explained the job timings and the compensation package. The work is for 8hrs a day for 6 days in a week. If I choose night shift it is 5 days a week with some 50INR allowance a day. The job is a temporary one as I am still a student with a compensation around 5K.
I acquiesced, thinking that may be once I finish my degree in a month or 2 get my certificates and they make me permanent with a better package. Even 10-15K a month is better than me staying idle at home.
After an hour or so came the offer letter. Another cute lady of the same age group explained the procedures to join etc. I asked her about the pay hike once I get there permanently. She coolly said there will be no changes in the package. LOL :D
I would have laughed at her but unfortunately my chivalry stopped me from snubbing at her. I grimly walked out with my offer letter wondering whether I should feel it humorous or horrific.
After all the 14yrs of schooling and 4yrs of dying in this hell I get a job that pays only 5-6K a month. I would better stay idle with an engineering degree than mocking myself and the institute from which I am about to graduate.

Kitty reaches 100Kmph
Its been a week since when I was waiting to write this post. Lobby hads bought a brand new Yamaha FZ16, the bike of the year. Its charismatic and more than that its rider friendly and the handling that gives a feel like the one with a obedient archaic wife.

The roof top of Clive Bungalow. Robert Clive the pop English General

Before the St.David Fort. Doesn't looks like a real fort, Does it? But its history
We went around the entire cuddalore and the surrounding places covering 100s of kilometers in a day. We were bored and obviously the best place in Cuddalore the Silver Beach, the world’s 3rd largest beach was our destination.
The mouth of river Kedilum
The Kedilum river’s mouth cut us from the O.T.(Old Town) beach we decided to go to the OT beach but not that day. The next day is when we decided to go to the OT beach.
Wow! The beach was so peaceful around 3P.M. in the afternoon. An ideal place for a date. It was beautiful place more than that its lonely. Unfortunately all we could do is regret the other is just a friend and not a girl friend (lol).
The beach was so long guess must be around a Km. I rode from one end of the beach to other reaching 97Kmph with lobby at the pillion screaming that he would fall of the bike at the bumps.
Now, its show time I dropped lobby at one end of the beach and started my record ride. It’s a bit risky to ride at the sea shore. It’s slippery near the waters and at a little distance the dry sand will suck the wheel in. So have to keep the bike at an optimal center and should keep the handbar steady.
Within 4-5 secs I could see the speedometer oscillating around 80. I felt the tears at the end of my eyes. The heavy air resistance made it harder for breath and was pushing me back, mind you if I say it’s a large open beach.
After some 10 secs I could see a steady oscillation between the 3 numbers 97,98,99 Kmph in my speedometer. I was dying to see a 100. That’s when I dipped in a shallow trough with water splashing for a couple of meters in all directions with huge noise and leaving me half wet.
I was slowed down by couple dozen kms. I accelerated as harder as possible to finally see 100Kmph near the end of the beach i.e. near the Kedilum’s mouth. With great fulfillment I rode back to lobby with the same phase without minding the speedometer, enjoying the ride. After which lobby tried and reached only 97kmph.
