How is Marriage Life !!!

"How is Marriage Life?",  I have been hearing these words from sms, phones, mails, friends, relatives.. etc..! No matter what, i am fed up with in replying them. I think its common way of asking some one after he or she getting married. Any differences you found before marriage and after marriage..? Interesting questions.. Lot of data which we can give to Bachelors..  :)

 

According to me, at times i was thinking to answer them in a meaningful manner but end up in saying "Fine", "Good".. then replies from them as Just Fine? Just God? No difference aah..? you were in the same state even before marriage Right? Well.. Then i was re framing my answers saying is I am very happy, its New Life.. New Responsibilities.. New Experience..
As both groom and bride comes from different background in terms of habits, family environment, different tastes.. which leads to better understanding of each other. At initial days.. there will be a magical drama.. like Silly Silly fights, complaints.. misunderstandings..overwhelmed love.. ego.. all.. at bottom line to reach the better understanding of each other. So Lately Couples.. Enjoy and cherish each moment :)

Meeting and Parting are two sides of Relationship.The time has approached me to say goodbye to Big Blues. I just want to take an opportunity to thank my colleagues, and the management for their support in my growth. This is really a cheerful moment for me working with them.

Travelled on India's Longest Fly Over !

Yes..! Yesterday Night while coming from office after Masab Tank drop, I routed the cab to Newly constructed longest flyover in India called P.V Narasimharao Express Highway. Driver and Me both excited as both are not traveled on this flyover. Always first experience would be exciting and curious. I have noted down the time as we exactly started 08:35 pm at beginning Terminal and reached at end  terminal of fly over by 08:44 pm. its  almost 12 kilometers distance we traveled  in 9 minutes.. what a Experience ! Saved 45 minutes time. No Two wheelers, No Autos.. Only four wheelers.. that to i have seen only Cabs in that time.

People who go to AIRPORT, they love this route like any thing. Basically it was constructed for the same reason. It connects the Mehdipatnam area in the city to the Hyderabad-Bangalore National Highway (NH 7) and route to the international airport. I have also noticed middle of fly-over at two points they were also attaching bridges to fly-overs parallel and merges into it which makes more usage to the travelers from those two area's. If that phase also finishes then it would be more and more useful. 

Terrific Traffic - Totally Tired up with Traveling !

Just It took two days to decide me Felt like hell with this traffic, Traveling From Vanasthali Puram to Hi-tech City is even worst than traveling from one state to another state. As i have habituated with 10 minutes drive to office in Bangalore, Here spending almost two hours to reach office and two and half hours to come back home is screwing my happiness and i am not a in a position to think anything. Its testing my patience. None of the routes are working out for me. whether i take drive or go by local train or by APSRTC Bus or even by the Company Bus.. result is same .. by end of the day feel like ..Is this Life which i am looking for?  Ohh.. God how many days i need to go office.. eagerly waiting for weekend to take rest.

Of course, I am getting a time to talk my self in any of these four and half hours at some point of time like where am I? why I am here. But at times i am not even having hope to think about myself as tiredness is with me always.Two years before Traffic was bit better in Hyderabad, Now God also cannot save the Hyderabad to get rid of traffic. 

what to do? life is restless? when i go bed its almost mid night.. when i wake up it should be before 6* (* Mandatory) otherwise late to office..late in catching bus.. late to everything. "late bed early wake up" - this quotation i need to stick to the wall in my bed room. I am planning some alternative solution to get rid out  of from this tiredness and terrific traffic

I was very happy when i  was in Bangalore that i am going to Hyderabad soon, simply i can settle at Hyderabad.. Bindaaz.. But here situation is different. Either i need to change my house or change the company.. Not at all possible for few months.. Even if i change the company also will not resolve the problem for traffic and journey. Thinking to stay at madhapur for few months. What you suggest ?

Lets see how it goes.. ;)

My Experience With Fly King Fisher !!!

Yesterday.. Yes Yesterday I was excited to travel in flight as it was first time  for me to travel in Flight.  Flight was suppose to departure from Bangalore airport at  17:35 and should reach at 19:05, Hyderabad. Usually i was in exciting mood for some reasons as i am completely leaving from bangalore and other thing i was released from existing project and going to sign up new project that to at Hyderabad in my favourite/base location.

Time 13:30 Hours: Finished with farewall formalities in office and Started back to my Room J.P.Nagar. Then i had Quick Noodles and packed up and all set to start.

Time 14:20 Hours: Me and My roomy caught the auto and started to Jayanagar as need to report 1 hour before flight departure in Airport, From Jayanagar i can catch the BAIL Volvo AC Bus to Airport and also sendoff  from my roomy. As soon as we reached there we found the Bus then i have boarded in and bought the ticket. after buying the ticket, I got a message to my mobile that "Departing from Bangalore to Hyderabad is delayed and Scheduled to 19:05".  shocked for momentary why these people delays and felt its only one and half an hour late i can do timepass in airport and roam around.

Time 16:20 Hours: I have reached Bangalore Airport and finished Checked-In formalities then took the Boarding Pass and realised that again flight is delayed and re scheduled 19:55 due to technical problems. Get irritated and open the laptop was doing online chitchat..then finished roaming here and there, after all felt that i have more than tired went to Barista cafeteria had Mysore Masala dosa and Assam Masala Tea by giving 300 bucks as it was low price ;) By the way I did not like the tea at all. I keep looking at the wide screen to notice the flight timings...  Time was 19:55 till now no announcement, fought with KF representative over there at 20:20 heard the announcment flight is all set to ready.

Time 20:30 Hours: At last boarded in flight, welcoming by KF chicks, as I have choosed the windows seat, my both eyes are looking out of the window felt that two eyes are not enough to watch the earth from sky.. ;) Had dinner at Flight. some chit chat with co-passenger. Gone throught the filmy magazine till the flight landed.

Time  21:45 Hours: Flight Landed at  Hyderabad International Airpot, finished the check-out formalities then caught the AC Bus to travel my home place.  reached home by 22:30, had a small discussion with parents.. Finally felt that Thanks God... its Friday.. I am at Hyderabad ;) 

Though i was reaching late, It was a Lovely Experience as it was first time Flying Experience...!!!

Few More Days !!!

Dear Frenz...

How are you doing.. Its a long while to blogging almost a month, fed up with work...! Thought of to share some news with you all. One is.. I am leaving Bangalore in a ten days.. I know its too late to go back Hyderabad and settle down.. As you know things are not smooth at my end as i always drive on unlucky path :)  what i plan is unplanned and what i expect is unexpected.  At last its Time to go Hyderabad.. And Rocking there !!!

Second thing is i started blogging in last year to share my views.. Now as I just look back and see.. It is 100th post.. Though i spend little time spend in blogging.. it gives me immense pleasure. There is no specific time bound to do about blog. when ever i feel to write i post and share...  Thank you for following my blog and sharing your opinions as well.

Back 2 Work from Tomorrow !!!

I am feeling as same as Back 2 School in childhood days after 10 days holidays for any festivals, Its almost 12 days i have stayed in Hyderabad, Thought of to travel tonight to Bangalore. Some how feeling lazy today, reason could be taking rest since two weeks at home. Its a long gap. I think Three years back (2006) i took two weeks leave as comp-offs to be utilized. After that such a long leave took now.

Again, next weekend i have to come back Hyderabad to attend my friend's marriage. Life is full of traveling for me. i feel these twelve days passed out so early ;) need some more rest !

O My God! Work work Work !!!

Shifted to New Room !!!

Yesterday, I have vacated the existing room and shifted to new place in Bangalore. I have stayed one year in the old room. perhaps it was the first experience to me staying out. I cherished each and every moment during the one year tenure in that room ;)

I am thanking to Rajesh.K, who is My First room partner, we had a very good time.

Driving towards Destination !

I Just want to share some moments which i had at office.. I Think its evening at 18:30 Today, "Hey Shankar! Well-Done, Splendid Job" --- My Project Manager appreciated me for kind of efforts. Though i bagged lot of appreciations earlier for various projects, This makes me more sense. After All trails and Errors mechanisms fixed some issues with help of one of Other project Friend(Thanks Shasheetha). At last we got some result. I am happy that My efforts are utilized, Because i committed few weekends to stretch on it and I have canceled my Today's Traveling to Hyderabad to attend my Brother's son First Birthday celebrations! My Efforts were calculated. I feel Result may fail efforts will never fail ;)

Since two months literally fighting in my office with source code and settings [Web logic 8.1 on Linux, Oracle 9i,Crystal Reports XI, Struts/Hibernate in J2EE]and environment setup locally for my project. Putting lot of efforts to get setup perfect in order to accept the challenging huge enhancement is coming up. Everything is new to Me.

Today i got some positive result as i able to setup environment and deploy my applications on production servers. Partially achieved something, However still some configurations need to be done at locally to achieve final outcome. Soon i need to fix those and get ready for BATTLE.

Thanks
Shankar

No SMS, No Much Calls, No much pingings.. Not feeling well.. NO much Fun.. ;( Ohh God! Please Make July month should move fast and faster !


I will try to post occasionally, so I won’t completely disappear. ;-) I miss checking my blog roll daily, but I do think it will be a good idea to get away from the Blog surf for a little while. See yaa..!! Have a Great Weeknd !!!

In Hyderabad for a week :-)

Just for small change back to Hyderabad for a week. I came here last time to cast my vote for the eve of state and central elections. I am happy to stay with parents and enjoying here with kids and having home food at least for a week. During this week Need to meet lot of friends, watch some movies and Lot of pending things to finish which i can do from here and planning outing with my family. Need to go Hyderabad office as well for two days...

Where is HIKE in this Year? :-(

The Hike, Usually given during April or May month. April gone .. May also going to End... Still no news at office.. Even managers they don't have clear picture whether they are going to get any news from higher officials. I am sincerely awaiting for it as Deccan Chargers are waiting for Semis berth in IPL.

Already Indian Top companies like Infosys announced no Hikes/Promotions in this year due to the impact of global meltdown. In the current economic scenario, I guess mostly the companies would be maintaining the same salary nos of the year 2008. And try to reduce the operational cost which is basically cost management. The companies may try to reward the outstanding and exemplary performers in some different way may be.

Some companies have decided NOT to give any salary hikes to cope up market downturn, some have asked their employees to take a salary cut so as there should not be any layoffs, where as some are offering a hike of 7% to 15%, saying that 15% hike will be awarded to employees who have performed exceptionally well in their area of expertise.

Due to Current economy slow down, not Only IT sectors but also Hikes in other sectors also having same situation.

Oh GOD ! - Where is Hike?????
