Last day in my team!

For the past three years of my professional life I have been worked with three different teams.Tomorrow is my last day in my current team.
Moving out of a team will always have its own emotions,there will be people who care for you,people adore you,people depend on you.Its a difficult situation to say goodbye.But life has to move on there is one thing in this world which is permanent and that is change.
I have been in this team for the past 20 months ,what I learnt is some techie stuff but what I cherished was the relations I developed. I had trained 4 people in the team and many times I would have thought or introspected myself whether am I guiding them properly.I felt satisfied when each of the them requested me to think twice before leaving the team and how will they miss me.
Yea I too will miss my team!
Keeping my fingers crosses what next!!!

Wonderful match indeed!

Last two days of Chennai test was absolutely mind blowing. Chasing a mamoth total of 386 our team got there with ease! Good start by Sehwag followed by brilliant innings by Sachin and Yuvaraj won the game for our country!
Kudos to our Indian Team!

Start to weekend

Nowdays my blogging is being restricted to Friday and weekend. Not that I am busy but I m lazy.
Last week went to a book fair ,nowdays I put a credit limit for buying books beacuse I have a bad habbit of chewing more than I can swallow. In the end got some 6 books.
So week went by trying to complete all thee books I bought.
Today found time to watch a movie The Ultimate Gift ,it was a good one to where a man discovers himself while trying attain the gift left over by his grandfather.
Emotional one, made me glued to the screen for two hours.

My visit to volvo race village

Cochin was gearing up to Vovlo race stop over for the past two months. Almost every where I turn there would be posters and banners about it.There was a stopover at Kochi from Dec 3rd to 10th.

Volvo race is not a one day affair ,the race goes on for 9 months covering different parts of the world.During the nine months of the 2008-09 Volvo, which starts in Alicante, Spain in October 2008 and concludes in St Petersburg, Russia, during late June 2009, the teams will sail over 37,000 nautical miles of the world’s most treacherous seas via Cape Town, Kochi, Singapore, Qingdao, around Cape Horn to Rio de Janeiro, Boston, Galway, Goteborg and Stockholm.It is undeniably the world’s premier global race and one of the most demanding team sporting events in the world.

I went to the race village where all the yatches were docked for maintainence,so in the mean time racers could relax a while and prepare for the next journey in the rough seas.There was a cultural festival week also happening with rock show going on every night.There was an exhibition where in lots information about boats and yatches were given.A motor boat costs around 95000 bucks,thought of getting one but there were lots of constraints should find a proper place to park,where to go in that,etc.

Had dinner in one of the stalls there ,listened to Rock music.Only regret was not able to get into simulated yatch as the queue for it was pretty long.All in all a good outing indeed.

My first Iranian film

Buddha Collapsed Out Of Shame is a movie taken in the backdrop bamyam buddha statues of Afganistan.Story is a simple one where a young girl has a desire to goto school and hinderences she get while doing so. How children are affected by war is wonderfully shown in the picture.Their behavior,games they play all are interelated with war.Another good thing in the movie is the photography ,wonderfully taken from the eyes of a small kid.

It makes us feel guilty of the pleasures we enjoy in the better half of the world,when there are people who are fighting everyday to earn their daily bread. This movie will touch your heart!
