Its really nice to have our daily conversations/chalus/theppus!
I have found a way to export everything from office to home, and will be doing that this week...not just forwarding...but consolidating them all in a readable format...

Just thought I would write some blah blah here...and post a couple of office photos...
Nowadays I don't have much time at all...

Hello...!!!!!

Hello friends...This might be the last weekend I am free as from tuesday, My new project will start on next tuesday..Here, it is Bandh on Moday. Unlike in kerala, here people take these things very seriously. Already one person is dead in mysore. Whenever I hear the word Bandh and hartals, I remember the fantastic times we had during our college days. Those late night phone calls asking to each other if it is a holiday 2morow or not, and watching those "Hartal dina superhit films" tht used to be shown in TV. Here nothing like tht happens. Already the cable operators have blocked all Tamil channels(Dosen't affect me as i rarely watches those....But might affect kiru,I guess !!!). Roumors are here which says tht on monday, there will be a cable blackout for all the channels.

Last week, most of us were in constant touch through e-mails which our companies provide. Felt really good when the communication flow was restarted amoung ourselves. And regarding the mail which KC send, don't beleive him..Avanu manasika rogamanu... But I think tht wht colonel told about kakka was true..So, wht abt. rest of u ppl???Dinkaaa....enthundu visheshams?? Ivide rajappante training ekadesham kazhiyarayi... No news what so ever about Anusha...Rarely does I see her.. And I got my new laptop also... But thatkalam valiya gunam onnum illa aathukondu..

An ISO Security audit is comming up here.. So, I am in the process of removing all the unwanted stuff(PLz Don't misunderstand me friends...I meant the songs,videos and games...) and writting it into CD's. Already some 20GB of data accross the Infy is stored in my PC. People frm other DC's are sending their datas accorss all DC's...But aathu audit nadathunna avanmar enganeyo aarinju...So now they are planning to conduct the audit accross the DC's on same day...Which day, no one knows.. :( ..Called pana yesterday..avan as usual, was in some vellamadi party .. :) ...

My batch work is gng on..as usual..But the most sad part is tht the Panama Batch is leaving next week. :( ... Was a good batch. ;)..Nice batch following the Gandhiyan principle..U know which principle,rite?? Will have to start teaching pretty soon now... Don't know when. Kakka has got some Mallu companies, it seems.. Didn't say to me if they r girls or Guys.. Eetho beach resortil poyappol company aayathanu ennu mathram paanju ennodu...Kooduthal details choodichapol avan ozhinju maari... ;) ...Anande...enthanu ninte aviduthe paripadi's?? Nee ninte favourate color maati ennu njan aarinju?? Germanyil poyal appol nee kasthapedumallo...

Jackie has ran away frm mandi into some secure zone...Most of us might have known it, but there are many who desen't know.. It is so secure tht even Mandi can't see her...Pavam Mandi... :( ..
Ivide frm next week E&R cricket matches aanu... Eagerly waiting for tht.. :) And divakar, avanu enthu patti?? Avanum secure Zoneil aano?? Kiru as usual, is busy..Mikkavarum Huawei avaneyum konde poku ennanu thoonnunnathu..

Lots of treats are pending, It seems... Will have all those wen v all get together. Me and kiru had planned to come 2 chennai this month, but nadakkumo ennu aariyilla...Tension is high here.. But still hoping tht everything wld b sorted out soon. Maneeyude vaka ennum oru Good Morning mails kittum...Allathe avaude valiya vivaram onnum illa...She had called me last week.. Aval avide adichu polichu nadakkukayanu ennanu latest news. Pazhaya flat kollilla ennu paranju oru puthiya Luxury flatilottu aval maari.. Ippol edaykkidaykku Pubilokke pokarundu ennum thoonnundu.. Njan aathine patti entho avalodu paranjappol aval paranju angane alla,ingane aanu avide cheyyandathu ennokke... :) ..

And Nibine...Nee avide thanne undo?? Ninte yaathoru mailum kittarillallo... Hack cheithu ksheenikkumbol vallapolum oru mail aayakkada.. Mostly I'll b leaving E&R and comming to TVM within 5-6 months... Ivide athrakku adichu poly alla.. I somehow dosen't feel right over here.. Not yet decided on this...

Thats It for now... Enjoy maadi...

Wishing a happy Bandh for all Karnataka PPL....

Hi frndz...............................................

Hi frndz,
Still in company. Building release... going on.... What to say?? Last day i was enjoying in Tharavadu... Hmmm!! saw rakeshettan in a differnt role "Irattakuttikalude achan". It was rare experience...Great get together at tharavadu.... divakar last minute changed his mind. dont know why??? Its really not fair, if someone doesn't joins a get-together, evenif they attend. Now everyone is busy with their works, everyone hardly finds time. Anyway we enjoyed, it was anand and naru's treat. Anand returned to (appeared to)orginal style ===> Spritoholist alias Maaanyan. Hmmm!! anyway according our freelance reporter, he didn't seem to be a novice in alcoholism.

According to reports, he wents to bar with our gr8(ika- mentioned above) acting as a spritoholist and after 5 pegs, ika turns to be a spritologist(thinks he drinks alcohol actually our maaanyan drinks the rest).

Here today life was not good. Before today it was good. Hope everyone is going well with their new lives. Keep in touch.


Luv all
pappu

Guru review....

Amitab Bachan+Jaya Bachan-Talent= Abhishek Bachan....

This was my opinion about Abhishek till last year....But GURU changed it all... Actually,I liked his performance in Sarkar,but GURU ,it was the confirmation!!! The Jr. Bachan has surely matured,I must say.

This weekend,It was Guru in Infy Multiplex. I was waiting for it from last 2-3 months. Mainly because of Mani Ratnam. The movie sure has his trade mark name written all over it. And the music of Rahman,I guess I needn't say any thing in that matter.

Story of Guru is as everyone has guessed. A man,starting his own business and becoming one of the best Industrialist in India. No suspenes here,and the story goes on well with another story,i.e:- the story of Gurukanth Desai,his personal life,his love life and his business life. Madhavan and Vidya Balan also plays a small but important role,with Mallika doing a good **Item Number** Midhun Chakravarthy plays a role of the owner of a leading news paper, which stands as the symbol of truth.

Saying anything more will ruin the thrill!!! Go watch it. Rest assured,you will not loose your money. It is worth it. The acting of Abhishek bachan is really commendable in every ways. Aishwarya is,as expected,average. But she has tried her level best. The direction of the master has been fantastic. But the most fantastic thing which I liked about this movie is the Dialogues. They are too good,and the presentation too is gr8.

Final Verdict:- Go watch this movie. Story is the ordinary story,of a person rising from rags to riches. But the way it is told, along with many other factors, is simply great.

Wedding and Varkala

Okeys...me complying with Hafeez's request and write about Anju maam's wedding and our trip to Varkala...

It was only the day before that I decided to go to wedding...we met in the afternoon at Technopark- Nibin, Sree, Anand, Sulu, Nisha and Me...Nisha had come to call some people for wedding...we had some good times with Nibin giving Nisha some sound 'advice' on family planning... :P

In the night, rather midnight, Jackie called me and said he is also coming. Then a big confusion about who in which car and we decided to leave the matter for the morning. Dinkan called me in the morning and said he is also coming.

The lovebirds came and picked me up rather late and the three of us started off.
The road was pretty damn cool and it was a very nice drive.

As we reached the hall we saw Sreenath outside with his phone...the other (mid) night too he was in call waiting for most of the time... ;-) How times change!!!

Name of the groom was written as 'Bobbin' in a board kept in front. (its Robin by the way!)

Was taken aback as we got in the hall...filled with teachers! we found others waiting in the hall- Sulu, Anand, Manee and Prabodh... Our junior batch was also there...Jayaram, Sabarish and the rest of their batch...

Dinkan came then...his brother dropped him...

Gireesh sir is going to BITS Goa (i met him at Technopark...said he is leaving on 1st...now he is doing something in IIIT-MK...plans to go to some foreign university after the BITS stint)

Then the star...our Princi came with a gift (it was written on the letter about no gifts I think...)

Hubby of Anju Maam looked pretty short to us...But I think they are the same level...just about... :-D

The marriage had some odd ceremonies...have'nt seen that type before...after the marriage it was kathi time for us...with teachers and Princi!

Princi told me to tell Rajav that it is not nice to jump jobs...hey rajavee if you are reading...Princi said so! :-P

It was pretty damn good...Danya dragged along her photos with Narayanamurthy along with her :P...hey girl...frame chaiythu nammukkathine Karakulam junctionil vekkam! atho Karamanayo? :P

Then, we went to Varkala beach...went means, it was rough journey...lots of blocks...lots!
Prabodh needed to sent a mail and fax to Anil Ambani...very busy man you know!

Finally, we stopped at Kallambalam and Prabodh and Anand went to sent the fax...some more time, idled away with we guys "freshening" up.

Then, on again...this time Anand lost his way and we had to stop again to get them back on track. (Me, Dinkan and Prabodh in Jackie's car, the rest in Sree's)

Varkala took our breath away...literally and figuratively!

Beautiful water and beautiful madammas in tiny bikinis! :D...and the trek down to the beach!

The water is amazing people!
So clear! I think I should have come here atleast once before...
The depth is also not so much...infact...at places it actually goes up from the shore...All of us entered the water...dragged the girls with us...didnt soak anybody...the sea did it for us!

Casuality: Anand's Mobile...its officially dead after the Varkala trip!

And...the babes... sighhhh :-D

Finally, we started off again...with some of us being thirsty and others wanting to let go off some :P

Decided to get some drinks from somewhere outside...reached some place and had Sharja...then Jackie's Father called him and was kalips...he was to return the car at 2 and it was now 2:30 and he was atleast and hour away from home!

So we decided to skip Sulu's home...all of us said good bye in front of her home and back home after an hour...

back to the same old m-o-n-o-t-o-n-o-u-s life...

A great day!

P.S: Pattu and Thampi landed yesterday...went to see Notebook (Nibin had highly recommended it)...I liked it...Pattu hated it...others were so-so...so take it for what's worth...

Hudaa hafiz

Good Times...

Friends...

Its been two years since our South India Tour!
Can you believe that?
Seems like yesterday that we ran around for a bus...hiding in my house, waiting for the damn bus to come...getting in and me and Panackal admiring the beautiful speakers...

Then, mixing the drinks and getting high on the road (well...not too much! You girls didnt notice! :P)

Hoggainakkal boating...eating the freshly caught fish fried to our content and ethapazham for lunch (atleast we did!)

On to Banglore...were we blew all our money (atleast I did!)...

Went to IBM...ate some good pizza and coke! (anyone remember anything else?)

Fooling around at Forum...were you girls helped us spot the chicks!

And a special night at Bangalore...Haf, Jackie, Dinku and Me...on the roads, talking a lot...never forget in my life...(especially Haf having his first Marlboro...lights...:P)

Another night at Bangalore...a very drunk me and Jackie locked out of our room by Pappu and HK...will never forget the sight we saw as we forced the security to open the door using a spare key...
Thought HK had killed Pappu and killed himself!
He was sitting on the chair with eyes closed with a dead look...and Pappu in a very artificial position on the bed...

A day in Bangalore...a hot afternoon...Nibin, jackie and me... having wine from a wine shop to appetise and eating some good banana (that was good!) and some silk cut to boot.

Pappu still lives...so that was not true...but HK? any idea about him?

Then a hot, hot day in Mysore...Tipu's palace...my childhood idol...
Me and Jackie eating from a very disgusting shop...no money left... :-(

On to Ooty...the wonderful karakkams...a shot of smirnoff (made me a fan!) then the party...champagne...
Renju being a total asshole...finishing off the booze and sleeping off...

Flowers all around the next day...everywhere!

Kozhi going total vaal...thanks to Hafeez's prescription for toothache! :P

The journey back...

Coimbatore stop...

The Paampu scare at Pattikaadu....getting off all the finished drinking water bottles and the yellow withering flowers from the bus...

A heck of a trip...changed the life of some ;-) fun and memories for others... :-)

No one had a better trip...or better friends...
Glad to have you all in my life... :-)

P.S: lets not forget the tsunami victims...lets pray that no more disaster strikes us...may life be as beautiful as ever...

HI...., guys Pappu is here

Hi everyone,
I've just visited our blog. Wat 2 say?? Workload has just started. But i thinks its absolutely rocking to work in my team. All are friendly. For everything there is full support from my team members whether it professional or personal. Only difference from campus are there is no sleeping classes. And we have to work a lot to earn money. And for ur information, i'm landing on 22nd Decemeber. I think pattu is the person who keeps this blog alive and himself the creator of the blog. Here me and kiru are well. Kirus work is to fire bad words at his PL. He does that almost everyday, he comes back. And onething, "njangal neat aaayi ketooo. Ini cheeethayavum vare". Hope u r enjoying. And my congrats to Anand for getting the job and his laptop. Roller for his nw job. And for SULU, for her new ALTO.

Ur loving
Pappu

Only one way to go.......

"There is only one way to go from here...."

This is wht Dravid told after yesterdays match!!! Jesus Christ!!! How can he say things like these without any shame!!! The WORST captian I have ever seen!! Atleast Sachin,when he was captian,admitted his mistakes(The WI tour was an exception though...) But this is nothing like that. Now,We boast ourselves of the gr8 players like Dhoni(After gilchrist,its Dhoni... ), Raina, Pathan, Kaif,Dinesh,Munaf etc.etc.... So,wht the Hell is going on there,In Indian Camp???

I have made an earlier post in which I said tht I would love to see the earlier Sourav in Team...Now,I am repeating that...I just want to see Sourav and VVS, I dont care if they are in form or not. Who cares about all these stuff?? It is not as if the present Indian Team is full of In-Form Players!!! Through out the Net,the dravid and Sourav fans are fighting...So,I thought maybe I can also Join them.....


But whom to support??? Sourav?? The Most succesful Indian Captain?? Or Dravid?? The person who was single handedly responsible for most of sourav's wins?? Hmmmmm......this is a tough decision.... So,I thought that first,I would go through all what the cricket fans have 2 say... It is easy 2 find...Go to ibnlive.com..there ,u can find a lot of clashes between the dravid and sourav fans.... These are some of the interesting things that they have 2 say....

Sourav Fan Club :-

1). As I mentioned earlier, He is the most succesful captian.
2).After the 83 team,he led India to a WC final.
3).Wins in England,Australia and Pakistan. Actually,he is the only captian who won both test and one day series in Pak soil.
4).Pathan,Yuvi,Kaif,veeru are all his choices... Actually,even Dravid was in team because of sourav...
5).Aggresiveness... He is really aggresive on and off the field.(Remember the Salman Khan type show off in Lords???)
6).The inventer of a 7-4 team with Dravid asked to don Keeper's role also...


So, these r wht the Dada Army is saying... How much truth is there in it....Hmmmm...Actually,wht they are saying is 100% true,only if it is taken literally.... He is the most succesful captian,thanks to guys like Dravid ,VVS and Laxman.. Apart from some very little good knocks,Sourav had little role to play. He led the team to play in WC final,I agree....But I guess sachin was the one responsible. He was simply superb in WC. Then veeru too played his part... Sourav???Hmmmm....I dont think so...

The wins in Australia is Only because of Dravid+VVS+Agarkar( In Adelade) and sachin+VVS( In sidney).... Pakisthan...Again Dravid.. England....Dravid+sachin+Sourav... I had to admit he played well there...I still remember who well he played in Tentbridge along with sachin....He was superb.....

His aggresion....the Best part of Sourav... He is Damn Aggresive...and for that,I just like him..... He is not the one who keeps quiet.... The bad boy of Indian Cricket,thts wht they called him... But it is the same people who call Aussies as gentleman... And he brought these superb players...Thts true man...But u brought a lot of Good 4 Nothin players also.... Can't remember...Let me help.... Parthiv Patel,Ratinder Singh Sodi,deep das gupta and many many more players.... Its just that the above mentioned players clicked... So,I guess that he was just lucky...(I feel yuvi is the only exception...)


So much for Dada Army......Now lets C wht Dravid has 2 say(I mean,his fans...)

1).Dravid is responsible for most of India's win overseas...
2).Dhoni,raina,Munaf(??),Sreesant(????????????????) etc.etc.came 2 his team...(Yeah,right came..And ready 2 leave also.....)
3).A captian must b cool...Dravid is cool....
4).Most dependable player...And never had any real phase where he was out-of-form...
5).Just because of some defeats,you cant write him down...He needs Time ......


Point No. 1...Accepted...Accepted without any complains... Dhoni...OK....But same case with dada...2 many ppl came and he just clicked... Actually,Inida needed a Wicket Keeper batsman,and Dhoni was the best.. But i still prefer Dineesh Karthik as he is more better keeper than Dhoni...(But dhoni is improving..I must say...) Dravid is Cool....I agree...but he is too cool,I must say..He is never aggresive..

So,After all these points it is my time to stand with some1...Hmmmm...Let me c..... Here is it...I stand with the






"Indian Cricket Team...."




These r just players and Cricket is a game that is much larger than any individuals... So,what is the peoblem with the current Indian team,u ask heh???

1). No one is taking responsibilities for anything. The senior guys,Dravid and Sachin should take responsibilities if the batting fails... They are the senior guys and must be able to inspire the entire team!!! Bowling,I must confess that there is no one responsible enough...
And Yuvi and kaif should now b considered as seniors...Kaif has played 122 matches.... That is enough experiance mate...Now,perform or else perish....

2). Ban (Yes Ban) players from appearing in ads...They are cricketers...First play,perform well...Ads and other stuff wld b there till u retire.... And,they r earning enough money by playing...

3). Reduce the pay...Infact,I would say that give them half of what they r getting now...And Increase it as they improve playing...For example a bonus 4 a century and other good performances...

4). BCCI is THE richest body...Spend some money for under 19 and under 16 players...Arrange a lot of Overseas matches 4 them...And also for the Ranji trophy teams and India A and B teams... Give them enough match practice...

5). When the national players are free,ask them to play in ranji or other domestic matches.. This will b a good chance 4 every1 to learn...


These are the things that I feel must b done to improve upon the teams performance... Lets c what happens...But With such a performance,I dont think that V can lift WC. If v lift it,it might b because of some Individual brilliance..And also,I forgot to mention,Sack that Idiot Greg Chappel...His experiments have failed big time... Mate,Nothing personal ,mind u,but V dont need u..Get the Hell out of Here...!!!!!

Reminisce...

We went to Nisha's bros engagement today...Anand, Hafeez, Sulu, Thakkudu and myself...chechis home is at Aranmula.
Me and Anand reached there at 7:20 and Haf and Taks a bit later.
The bus had lot of seats vacant. Nisha was counting on 10 of us coming! Sulu was picked up on the way at her Thonnackal Panchayath...

The bus ride was not very good. Rickety ride...and I was damn hungry after some time! They played Manasinakkare movie and semi watched it while gazing outside...
We did chat a bit towards the latter half of the journey and saw a vazhi thadayal samaram.
Nisha's Machan was calling every 5 minutes or so!
God bless that person who bought two big bags of lays and saved me from certain death due to starvation! By the time lays was finished we reached the prospective brides home...
Then the ceremony took place. After that a sadya was there.

After sadya four of us guys scooted of for a walk. The place is a total pattikaadu. Not even a pettikada in sight!
Atlast we went and sat in a desolate but clean bus waiting shed.
We sat there thinking about the good times we had over the years...laughing at our old antics...we shared a lot of light moments there...
We sat there for a long time...and returned to the house to find Sadya still going on...we returned back to our dear waiting shed...telling Sulu to call us when they were ready to leave...

After some time she called and we went there to have a photo session...that panna kaakka tickled me and God knows how horrible our photo is...
I was giggling, Anand was giggling in a bemused manner and Hafeez was also giggling...seeing this almost everybody was giggling...would make a really fabulous piece of art...unless the photographer was also giggling :P

It was a sleepy mood on the way back...we talked about our college...the rain started lashing out fairly hard and the water came inside the bus also...reminded us of our Parakkum Thalika bus in Goa...

The song from Classmates was playing in the background...
"...Ini illithu pole sukhamariyunnoru kaalam..."
How true...

No matter where we end up in life...No matter how good or bad we do at lives...Never will this carefree life return...

Adios...

hi frinds..i am back

hi frinds...

HAPPY DIWALI TO MY FRINDS AND FAMILY....

after a long time i am back to scribble something tht happ quite a few days b4...

My parents were here for juz 1 day and whn dey left i was very sad and once again i was all alone here in this big city....eventhgh my cuz is here itz a little far frm d twn....
Last sat on Oct 1st it was our AMEX party at Fishermen cove- a Taj beach resort quite some 45 minutes from the main town...

They provided as with innova to reach te spot.. we 6 were there in it and all together 10 for the party.. I was a little excited as i was about to meet MARK CONCOR - ceo of our company.. As we were new joinees, we were supposed to have a one to one with him there.. Anyz it was quite gud more than i expected.. He is really a hardworker and when at leisure he is really amazing... He juz asked me some questions like how am i feeling this new atmospere...like wise it went on well.....

After tht it was the boozing...i stud there like staring at wht is happening in the corner.. suddenly someone called me when i turned back it was my cuz.. i was happy to c tht i was not alone there....i tuk some soft drinks...and as rajavu was also with me i felt quite relaxed... he was asked to start with beer to which he agreed and it was fun.....

After 7.30 we went to the beach... After some 30 min we came back to have the dinner...I was really sad bcoz there were oly 3 veg dishes and i was supposed to eat oly veg tht sat.... after coming to chennai i am becoming a vegterian u knw... ha ha ha................
and after the dinner at 10.30 we again went to beach....we played a lot.... and it went on till 12 in the nite....As the next day was sunday i really njoyed as i cud get back to the hostel and sleep as much as i want .......................

The talk with mark was superb....He is really frindly and he juz commented on my smile.........i was really schoked as he said " this female has a very gud smile and it makes her more pretty.."then he said "i don't know wht u guys mean like pretty here...". God know wht he meant like tht....

Last saturday sree joined me for 2 days and it was a gud time to roam around with him in spencers.. The whole story is there in his blog "putitinyellow". i njoyed a lot after a long time in chennai......CREA was also gud....It is the employee recreation club in AMEX.

I was wondering wht to do at Diwali..here streets were crowded wit people purchasing 4 diwali and 2 go out 4 a walk was undoutdly not possible.... no one was there..my frind at amex "dev" also left to his hometown 4 diwali.. he is a gud frind of mine and i feel a bit out of my tension in office bcoz of him.... and i didn't get ticket to kerala also.. my roommates were also planning to move to their places for the holidays.. i juz called my cuz in b'lore(my all time well wisher).. He buked the ticket for me 2 b'lore..and my diwali holidays tuk shape.....4 diwali i was at my cuz's place... His flat the dream flat 4 me as usual is a warm place 4 me 2 reach at any time........Here his son- atul is very much afraid of crackers and so we dropped the plan of wasting money on tht....

I njoyed the diwali from his balcony.... it was really gr8 and beautiful to watch the fireworks and sparklers from the 8th floor balcony....it was chill in b'lore and i borrowed my cuz's jacket to njoy it in full...Wit a cup of coffee in my hand nd sipping it in the cold atmos increased the beauty of it a lot more.....It went on till some 12 in the nite.. and i was feeling very sleepy as i reached his place only early in the morning... i got a gud sleep and tommorow i need 2 reach my office by 2..my train is at 6 in d morning...and tht is all my past few days news.....

Working Class!

My training got over on Wednesday...Came through with flying colours!
Got a prize for one of the best Trainee! :D

So I joined for work on Thursday. Went there with a lot of hopes and dreams (and fear of being expelled...)
Our TL cum Manager turned out to a little chori that day...on top of it we didnt get our slots (cabin) and had to spend the whole day struggling to keep awake...
Me and a friend got access to one system and the only times I was not counting seconds was when I chatted with some friends and visited them at the main module (I am stationed in 4th Floor and all my fellow trainees barring 3 are either in 3rd Floor or in Kuravankonam office)
Lunch is pretty good here...not so expensive as I had imagined. I have blown of most of my salary almost entirely and all I have left is 800 bucks worth of food coupon...

Today got my slot, next to my TL :P and got a phone too. Today also no work...but got some style guides to learn and spent time learning the product and the styleguides.
Most of my friends got some work or the other with their TL around, so not much chatting also...
This system has got old version of office and no LCD monitor :-(
Has to tel admin to get me the latest Office version...but monitor will stay the same!
Today the TL was in a much better mood...but there is lot of pending stuff to be done and still no work!
Work allocation involves lot of stuff to be done and I hope we get some next week. I am planning to do some extra work if the case is the same next week...

Just know I saw my results...cleared s5 and s6...now next week have to go with it to company. Lets see if they decide to terminate or continue with me...Pray for me people!

The spiderman returns!!!

Hii all... this was a wonderful event that happened just the day before.. as i told u, the girs stay right above our apartment.. they are on the third floor and we on the second.. there is only one key for each apartment and the door is auto lock.. last day evening we all were relaxing at the terrace.. suddenly it happened..
the girls realized that they hav forgot to take the keys from their house..
we tried to contact the manager of the flats.. pakshe no use.. then we went to the company to check if spare keys are available..
athum nadanilla.. then we came to know that this is a common thing in all the flats and theres a usual man called raghu who is called for help.. we waited till 10 at night and came to know that he is not available..
so finally we had to do something..
so we arranged a ladder.. the one used by painters made with rope and kazhukole.. and i climbed down from the terrace and got the keys. thank God they had kept the balcony door open..
angane njan jeevithathil athum nadathi.. :-) bhagyam thazhe pokathirunnathu.. :-D

Panackal from chennai!!!

Hii frnds.. sorry couldnt stay in touch for sometime.. My new number was supposed to get activated by the 1st of this month.. but it didnt happen due to some prob with airtel.. my new no is 09940052446..
i reached chennai on 28th mrng.. joined on 29th.. there wasnt much of a work till yesterday afternoon.. from yesterday afternoon our training started.. the training is rigorous..
we are into SAP team.. its a special team here in chennai.. just 9 of us in the team.. 8 of us from kerala.. a total of 4 boys and 4 girls.. we stay in the company guest house.. its a residential complex of around 400 apartments..
we boyz hav 2 apartments and so do the girls.. the girls stay right above our flat..
the accomodation is just a 10 min walk from the office.. apartment from the training, life is superb here :-)
we had karakkams during the pooja holidays.. we went to spencers and to besant nagar beach.. couldnt see chakku.. will meet her someday.. we are in outer chennai.. around 10 kms from the city proper.. and i am not used to the buses here.. they hav only numbers and i dont know anything about the chennai map or abt the numbers :-D
we are having training for only 33-34 days.. normally it used to be 100 days.. but since the company has an urgent requirement, we hav to make it fast..
we dont hav leave for the first 11 months.. so i will able to come back home only if i get 3-4 days continuous holiday :-(
anyways lets keep in touch.. miss u all.. take care byee...
