Weekend

Firday..Harish had called me and I think he got bored of asking me about my trip to US.I am unable to answer him as my Manager has put that on hold..I dont know the reason...that evening I wanted to deposit cash in ABN Amro and had to give my NOKIA 2300 for Servicing..The mobile did not get powered on..only a light in LCD glows but nothing is seen in the display...I had to go to Richmond road..but my God..B'lore was like hell..all those roads have become ONE way and the Traffic was terrific.I was really uninterested to take a long way or explore the way to the Bank and was really frustrated with the one ways and traffic in bangalore.
I say chennai is faaaaaaaaar more better when compared to banglore in this regard.All the roads are very wide and the traffic jams are not an usual scene there..and also there aren't many ONE ways' there..Day by day I getting better and mre realistic reasons to love chennai...
My mom had called me in the afternoon and she really feels bore without me during the weekend..but I dont know ..I have to change her..She shouldnt love me sooo much...I thought for a while..and some ugly thoughts came to my mind...what will happen if I die.. and she would bw missing me like anything....Let me pray that her mind be diverted to other activities instead of always thinking about me...I dont know if I am wrong ..but I am trying to strengthen her mind..When I said that I had moved to a new apts she was very much ineterested in coming down here to see me and the apt.. but I dont know if this happens with my friends' parents..but my roomie stays away from his home ever soce his college days.. is it because of this...I really feeling bad to explain her all this..
On Sturday..my roomie prakash and me whent to Tippasandra gas Agancy to book the gas..I observed that still there are a lot of private office and govt. office that rely of the paper work written ..that consumes a lot of time..not having seen it for a long time..i felt this was really tasking..the manager over there was busy with the paper works and when our turn came he started writing down the address for billing..then without saying anything striked out everything on the bill book..and we were informed that the place were we reside is not covered by that agency..then we went to the Indira nagar agency and got our Gas cylinder and a new stove.
We cooked our dinner - Cauliflower curry and onion sambar..
Sunday I went to ABN Amro,cooked our lunch-potato cauliflower curry,carrot sambar,boiled egg..planned to go for jogging with vinodh from the next day...so bought a pair of power shoes..a chear one for jogging...

Nothing Spl.

Was an usual day..without any hectic trainings/meetings..I was killing time by reading articles in various websites...2 days before ,I dont know why..I startd searching about all post graduate courses offered by various universities..but still I am ina confusion to whether continue my higher studies in technical are or management area.. but one thing is for sure..as long as I am in this state I wouldn't do my PG..so I am deciding to join the MS course offered as distance learning program by BITS pilani...let's hope if I blog a msg taht I have joined BITS program.
We had a very good walk in the night.. me,my roomies vino and praky went to a punjabi restaurant..I used to go to a dhaba in koramangala fro dinner where the phulkas would be very thin and hot.. but the phulkas that I had yesterday wasnt too good..it was like chapathi..my mom makes good phulkas...missing the delicious home food.Praky was ordering whatever menu item came across his eyes or whatever the waiter served the next table..anyway it was good..there is nothing interesting in the cable channels these days and I m getting bored to listen to the usual tamil songs.What I usually do is if I feel a song is very melodious I download it and listen to it for 5-8 times in a day for a week or so..then I I feel bored listening to that song..I think I have to start some research in othe types of music like carnatic,westen,fusion and instrumental...
I wen through the TN official webste...http://www.tn.gov.in/ it's a very good source of information..a very good food for general awareness..
Some info which I got from taht site is :
Communication Switches in Chennai Telecom:
AXE - ERICSSON
E10B - ALCATEL
OCB - ALCATEL DIGITAL SWITCH
EWSD - SIEMENS
5ESS - LUCENT.

The switch in which I was working in Alcatel was S12..which is much more advanced PSTN switch,ready for NGN (wordings taht appeared in ALCATEL website).

Shifted....

Shifted to the new house in Tippasandra.The house is really full of suitcases and cartons of things that needs to be arranged.I hope we'll have a tough time this weekend setting up things and cleaning the house.
The Laloo's rule in Bihar is still not over.The congress is now supporting RJD (Laloo's Party) to form the govt..So the 15 years Laloo's rule has not come to an end in Bihar..it continues..I wish this happens in TamilNadu also..Jayalalithaa should form the govt the forthcoming election too with absolute majority..too much of politics..
Tamilnadu state govt budget was presented in the state assembly.. two days after the central budget and it has all free dhoti,sari..home for the poor schemes..the comment from JJ was that "the budget presented by finace minister C.Ponnaiyan is Superb".. as an ardent fan of Jayalalithaa's language,politics,etc..I disd not expect this simple comment "Superb" from JJ..Her command over the language is too good..one should watch her interview with Simi garewal ..which was telecast about 5/6 yrs before..
My aunt was also a fan of JJ adn I dont know if I become JJ's fan becos of my aunt's influence.. anyway leaving taht aside...these days every day I go to Suswaad for Lunch..I dont have my lunch in the office Cafe..the Chennai Thali in Suswaad is too good.. which takes like my home food..sambar,rasam,curry,kootu,appalam,payasam and curd..what else do I want....

Shifting in Progress .....

I am moving from the place where I am living in Koramangala to an apartment in Thippasandra.
So went to my new house jus to meet my new roomies (my schoolmate and his collegemate).Had a good dinner - potato curry and carrot & raddish sambar (which I made).
I satrted packing.. and I know that I have a looot of dresses to pack..The trousers and Shirts which I had bought during my college days are still fitting me and they could be worn to office(they dont look old).I should thank my mom for this.She has taken utmost crae for my dresses.She wouldn't dry it in the hot sun..dry my clothes in the shady place..I have a learnt a lot from her.. I have borrowed my old roomie's suitcase to pack my things..
I am really feeling very bad for not doing my higher studies..during my college days I had discussed with my friends about the higher studies after working for 2/3 years..now I know that it is out of scope now!!! After leading a life independently infact lavishly spending on pizzas and jeans I dont want to again ask money from my dad...I know the situation @ home..I have made a mistake..sorry blunder..God please help me...
