The first impression.

It’s been over a month and the predictions fall true. I am dallying around and LA is a chilled out place with not much ado. But not too long, my orientation begins Monday – Aug the 18th and the picture shall look different. Apart from that, I feel so elated by the opportunities that exist in this nation. Moreover, that attitude that people wear is totally incoherent to our desi’s. A smile on the face and a charm in the persona so well reflects their motivational attitude and excitement derived from work. There are so many good things to squeeze out from their culture. There are plenty of problems but encouraging words aplenty to guide you towards the lucid path. The country focuses towards betterment of its citizens and the amenities provided can bedazzle you on your first outing. The consumer is the king and honesty is regarded as a divine mantra. Even the weirdest and shrewdest of aliens take up honesty when living with such people. Currently I am excited about my part-time that’s gonna fetch me my living expenses. I believe I am here to stay and do well living amidst a jubilant and diligent work culture where performance is rewarded and nurtured with care and respect.

The closest octagon

This entry is dedicated (sounds mourning, isn’t it); or rather written to honor my closest and dearest chums at Infy. Don’t exactly know where to begin from. But I would like to reincarnate the memories of Hyderabad. Remember the day when we got news of our postings after an extended training at Infosys Mysore. The fairytale starts with a bus ride from Mysore to Hyderabad. A fleet of approx 80 Finaclites, all filled with joy of clearing their compre’s; stepping into their professional careers. I was completely ignorant that a tenth of them would glue together so amazingly that their lives would be entwined in a manner that the threads would always mingle with the present; wherever future takes them and whatever the past impinges upon. The stay at the Woodbridge hotel culminated in moving into our new apartment. Three new folks from different regions, best buddies from college days. I was completely new to their company and not being a hosteller my entire life, brought in varying perspe...

The Masjid Mania

The military attack by Pakistan on its indigenous Lal Masjid has taken a lot of stick from the chauvanic Islamic pundits. But the audacious act by President Musharraf, whether or not goaded from US or China should be commended upon. The president has taken a first ever courageous step to thwart the malign intentions of extremists residing within the country and using creed and religion as a major agenda to fight against humanitarian causes. But the major setback came when the Al-Qaida protagonist al-Zhawari launched an verbal attack against the president and his forces describing their effort as atrocious and un-Islamic. He openly confessed that this brutal deed can only be repented by Musharraf's blood. Although such vacuous threats would have little or no effect on the President and his forces, but the country can in now way remain ignorant from the valiant efforts and courage displayed by the extremist group. Moreover, with support from major superpowers like USA and UK it would...

My tryst with Maths!

The journey has begun. Have gathered a lot of information and study material . My earnest attempt would be to wrap up the Nova's GMAT Prep Course within 6 weeks. Have started with Mathematics. Maths has always been my forte. Getting 90% accuracy on the first attempt. But its just the beginning. Wanna stretch that figure close to 100. The destination is a lot further than it foretells . The area I will have to slog on is Data Sufficiency. Never ever handled such problems at school or university. Statistics and charts give me nightmares. Being a colorblind it would be difficult for me to judge different colours on the chart. Pondering how humiliated people would have felt when discriminated on basis of Colour. Feeling like one of them now.. The 'that' and 'who' concept still amuses me. I wonder why the schools demand the manager to have a fetish for such little concepts. Practice, practice and more practice. That is what is required. Will have to set some deadlines fo...
