Life @ CBE

Wowowow!!!!! The pace at which one month went is amazing. Settling in coimbatore didn't take much time to me. Things are very much like chennai. I couldn't find much difference between chennai and cbe except for one thing. Shops just close by 9 in the evening. Couldn't even get a medicine in case of emergency. :(

There are lots of amazing places here in CBE. Every weekend we make it a point to go around the place.Marudhamalai , ISKCON temple and waterfalls called kovai kuttralam and just roaming around in R.S.Puram. I feel ,I am roam around more after coming here to CBE than I was at chennai{Hopefully my parents don't read my blog}.I was never a movie maniac and here my friends make it a point that I come with them to movie atleast 2 in a month.It reminded me few of karthik's posts. Transport is too costly that it is almost drawing half of the money my mom funded me.

Only thing that annoys us is the people over here give us a weird look as if we are downloaded right from Jupiter and don't belong to their category of species. And finally my training......Goes on and on and on.....And I think I am doing well there.... Training ends by Jan mid and I am really hoping that I am posted back to chennai . Missing mom's food very much :(. Yeah......

Thats all for now. This post is just to remind people I am still alive out here and will be back to blogworld in another few weeks. Don't be sorry for that :-)

@barbi
Welcome to my blogsville .Do keep visiting.

Hey you don't need a special place to roam around and enjoy if you are with friends.... Any calm place to get together is enough ....

Thats just a piece of code :-)

@Syam
Yeah even now I found few places where I could get medicines. Thanks :-)

To prioritize or Not to; thats the question

A professor stood before his Philosophy class and had some items in front of him. When the class began, wordlessly, he picked up a very large and empty mayonnaise jar and proceeded to fill it with golf balls. He then asked the students if the jar was full. They agreed that it was. The professor then picked up a box of pebbles and poured them into the jar. He shook the jar lightly. The pebbles rolled into the open areas between the golf balls. He then asked the students again if the jar was full. They agreed it was. The professor next picked up a box of sand and poured it into the jar. Of course, the sand filled up everything else. He asked once more if the jar was full. The students responded with a unanimous “yes”. The professor then produced two cups of coffee from under the table and poured the entire contents into the jar, effectively filling the empty space between the sand. The students laughed. “ Now,” said the professor, as the laughter subsided, “I want you to recognize that t

Freedom at Midnight

Till date I never read a book consecutively twice. But I had to; in this case. When I completed reading the book first time I was too lost in facts to miss the emotions. I felt hatred, devotion, anger and a confused feeling towards British, Indian Leaders, Mohammed Ali Jinnah and Gandhi in that order. I was surprised how little I knew about my mother land. The Empire was 'heavy with gold, black with industrial soot, and red with the blood of conquest.' Collins and Lapierre open the book on New Year's Day, 1947 -- London awakes to filth of its own country. The reader is taken on a journey of significant events that lead to the independence of India. On the way you will be introduced to many brilliant characters that shaped the history of India and have left a mark that is still evident. The authors’ attempt to justify everything done by the British Indian Empire by concealing the atrocities brought about by them during their so-called Raj in India. Collins and Lapierre skip

Malayalam-too tough

Aahaaaa…..Finally got something to post about. Was suffering from writer’s block... he.. hee.he. Spent a few days at my granny’s place with net access denied and got back home just this weekend. Now when I am back to blogsville something has taken back my writing skills. Thought too much about what to post and my mom could see a smoke coming through my ears. Now getting back to topic. Since I had no special work to carry on I was ransacking my shelves to find some good old books to read. My hands fell on a book and it was my Malayalam book. When my exams got over I was bent on making mom help me learn Malayalam. That turned out to be a disaster. Though I am a malayalee, being born and brought up in Chennai is the only reason I can’t read and write my mother tongue. That’s a shame. I wanted to learn before I reach trivandrum for my training at TCS. So with the same vigor I bought a book to help me, since mom had certain confusion with new version and started learning the alphabets. Afte
