Finding Blog

Just now i noticed , how bizarre it is to navigate using NextBlog button situated right on the top of this website.
In order to read other blogs posted on the website, i clicked on the Button "NextBlog". What comes up,is a beautifully designed blog written in a language that i do not understand. Henceforth i deicided to move on by clicking NextBlog. Another beautiful blog but couldnt fathom the language.I clicked again and again and again. On the 7th occasion, I reached a blog, which had hided the NextBlog Button in its design, so no movement further possible.

I went to my blog and again started with NextBlog Button. This time it hit the bulls eye.

Chances are bleak, that you find blogs of your own choice.
Now, what does all this activity suggests:
1) Probability of a hitting a blog ( In English) -> Comes out to be 1 out of 7.
2) I should learn more languages.
Otherwise, a wiser way to tackle this would be to add a new feature like (Select language) along with the nextblog button.
Till than, i will keep on trying my luck.

A Question With an Answer

Today is the 2nd day after "I finally managed myself to start Blogging again".

Have just arrived home from office. Was another hectic day at work: 2 hours of morning journey toward office, 4 hours of resolving serverity max defects of my code, 30 minutes of quick lunch and a short walk with an icecream, another 4 hours of resolving serverity(max) defects, finally left(The word is -ran away) the office to start 2 andhalf hours of journey towards my home.

Its amazing how stupid one can become in just 2 years of joining IT industry. I laugh on any bad joke that floats around me, i start giving advises to anyone who looks tensed( Advises which i would never follow for me religiously). If somebody laughs at me, i make sure he does not laugh again. You people dont know me...but please "Trust me" , i was not like this.

My friends made me realize that my sense of humor has peaked new lows and if i dont stop sharing my office jokes (also called PJs) attrition rate of my friend circle will achieve new heights.

Recently, my Boss gave an advise to me: Abhishek, If you want to win the war, Be zero in EQ and 5 in IQ. (0-5 scale). Crap! What war are you talking about? I aint a warrior. If at all, you have want to advise, please show me the way to increase my IQ.

You would have made out by now some of my qualities:
1) I have a database of Patheitc Jokes.
2) I give advises to people( Though, i know i am not competent enough or an expert to analyze those issues) .
3) I get flamed easily.
3) I have become a higly sentimental person.
4) I have lost my creatvity ( Everyone has it- till you loose it)
5) Also, i like things when they go wrong. ( like i have realized that numbering is wrong in these points, but i dont want to correct it)

If make you guys believe, that I was a lot different person when was studying in college. And i assume that you agree to me.

Then my question to you is :

What makes such changes in behaviour after joining an IT industry or any job.

probably, its because of some chemical reaction that deactivates your brain?


Enough of Bull shit..Time to sleep. Ciao!!

Blues in my life (After i become an IT Engg)

Yesterday, boss sent an e-mail to my lotus notes. Subject was :L1B Individual US VISA Process. I jumped on my seat..and showed all the happiness in the world....yoo ..Dude..America is Calling.

Tring..!! There goes my alarm.."Wake up Freak"..

Yes, that is what i saw in my dream last night :) "Smile"

Think, an IT engineer does not always have such good dreams. Mostly, he spends his/her night in the cubicle working overtime to complete the Code or he/she is so tired that actually forgets to dream.

"Ha Ha Ha Ha......Ha Ha Ha Ha.......Ha Ha Ha Ha" This is what i do in front of the mirror every morning. WHY??

Becuase "Laughter is the Best Therapy". If you are an IT engineer then you need this therapy. As there has to be something else which makes you smile than dreaming about Onsite trips in UK and US.

1) I like to try new things, the idea of doing something new...send me strong "GO FOR IT" vibes.
So, i joined Salsa classes.

2) I also play Table Tennis, Squash and Lawn Tennis, Bowling.. "Keeps me Fit and Happy".

3) I write blogs, what an interesting way to express yourself.

4) I watch movies on a projector and listen to songs on Ipod...(Use Technology where you can...it makes you feel good).

5) I am still connected to my branch (Polymer and Chemical Engg). I read about all the R & D going in this field. I wrote book on Nanotechnology..and about to complete another oe on cancer treatment using Nanotech. Idea is to stay connected to your base branch...( this gives me satisfaction..which sometimes my job doesnt grant me)


So what if Ruppee is Rising..!..( Keep dreaming about Dollars..and Onsite ) :)
