A real surprising decision last nite to go home this weekend.. Well but then more than travel by train which is umpteen times more comfortable than even a Volvo but then the travel by road in Bus excites and thrills me. The only reason i can think of is driving a train is not challenging or does it require the mental alertness as that of a Bus and also the control of the whole vehicle the time of journey , the comfort level of the drive all rests with just one person unlike in train where you have a big network beyond the driver that works for the running for the train.. hence somehow i feel it is very interesting to evaluate the skill level of the driver of a Bus in not just the speed but even his subtleness in gear shift, the gear-engine noise ratio he maintains all this is quite intriguing when looked into very carefully.. Well the best drive i had been so far was i cant single out anything very specific well i dont remember a badly driven KSRTC bus ever on my numerous journeys out of Blore.. Well the journey comfort has been one of the best even on Rajahamsa.. plus i would like to add it is not lacklustre or lazy driving.. but some real solid fast drive when the the travelling time has never beyond 7.15 mins ever.. Fine this i would go on abt this let me stop here.. Then another great news has become a Project Lead.. am feeling really happy for her.. well she should have been one quite some time bak.. expecting couple more announcements like this over the next week from others.. and treats along with this..

Couple of long pending stuffs i had done today on the personal finance front.. not big changes to turn me into a millionaire at day break tommorow.. But somehow these days i jus wana restructure the way im handling money and be more accountable and wise thatz all.. Well so fixed up an appointment to meet an Investment Consultant guy and initiatiated a talk with HDFC to open a Demat Acct. Well then some big news today at Office Front.. Krishna and Aananth have been promoted as Sr. Apps and also how can i forget the Evergreen Sunil.. he too was on the right boat unlike at iNautix..
But there is one thing which is the Biggest reason i maynot be succesfful in Corporate Life especially if I go the BSchool route.. my shoddy and woefully long time to take a decision these days.. Well the decisions to make jus paltry ones but i seem to prod over n over by the time i make it Im too late and have missed the very purpose.. I just have to pulll up my socks and set this right pretty right.. I got to get this going very soon probably in days bcoz this habit has somehow stuck to me v.badly in the last year or two.. well then wat else at work couple of QA bugs to tackle so was off with it quite early..
Well how can I not write about the Wall.. Well each time i see him perform (it is almost in every two out of 3 innings) i jus have this feeling within me which makes me wonder at this guy's consistency , determination and patience.. Jus imagine the solidity he offers to crores of viewers when he is batting.. everyone tends to relax.. push deep into the chairs from the edges they hav been on since the time sehwag came in, giv their nails a break, pick up a drink it is all bcoz such is the faith in the Wall that they knw he wont play anything flashy that wuold make hearts pound in tension .. Here I invariably have to draw this parallel to Business.. Imagine a company in any line of Business that has this Rock Like Solidity.. it would be a Dream Company for Employees, Promoters, Investors and its success would touch everyone on Earth... Well then coming back to The Wall.. this is the Branding that goes along with his name.. I jus cant think of anyother better suited name to a sporting individual atleast in Cricket than to Dravid.. Imagine the Comps he is the Brand Ambassador India Cements, Castrol and also Nippo Batteries all utilise his Brand Value to the maximum extent to correlate to their products brilliantly.. Thatz real shrewd marketing.. And more importantly the guys clean and very professional image. He is complete package especially the way he handles the media is jus too good, personally i havent seen anybody as good as him so far in India or anywhere. He is great Role Model for one to Have the reason being each of his quality can be applied with success in any field by anyone. Finally the Wall made 270 today so luks like India will create history and win the series 2-1.. Lets hope Inzy Aaloo doesnt spoil the party.. Fine then i cant forget this headline in the TOI when Dravid fails in the final Test..

The Wall Crumbles.. It is so synonymous these days to see all the papers unimanously call him Rahul Wall Dravid.. Am waiting for tommorows dailies i can bet the headline would yell The Wall.. well i could go on about this guy.. probably i will a lot many times on this blog for years n decades to come..

well today nothing much.. went through some broking sites.. n also called up ims.. probably it would be IMS i think so.. will hav to go n meet them on Saturday.. well thn leaving home.. nothing much

well today is a big day in bangalore not more any stupendous reason.. Jus that the whole city will be jammed n crowded.. There are huge rallies for a variety of reason. First the Vajpayee Election rally, then the Enrique Iglesias concert.. , it is through these concerts at blore i get to knw the names of pop or rock stars watever u call them as other than the MJs, Madonna, Britney Spears.. And finally the Big thing the one that really makes sense for a cause of celebration. Infy the Big Indian IT Sucess Story has become a $1 billion company.. so there is a celebration and bounty for the shareholders.. a great unexpected 3:1 bonus plus Rs.100 dividend per share.. It is raining money. Well a small calculation which i came across pretty interesting one.. One share of Infy during its IPO at 1993 worth Rs.95 then would have been 64 shares with a staggering value of 80,000.. well wat a bus to miss....

Well back to work.. have couple of new bugs expected that over the weekend since it was long.. so doing some analysis n stuff n closing them out before the bug call.. well then again a usual day

Well really sorry for yeat another big delay.. some how this habit of procrastinating things jus come along with me if only i could control this.. well then wat else nothing dramatic on the personal for the last one week or so.. so will give a gist of the happenings. Well went to madras over the Good Friday weekend.. well really ate well and lots after a long time here.. Then got a Peterson GMAT book with NIS at connexions.. and spent some time with him.. Got a chance to meet Suresh, Nandu and Saravanan after quite a long time.. Other than this was jus lazing around at home nothing much during those 3 days.. and today am bak to blore to resume the monotonous life with work..
