Happy aniversary....
This is really no big deal. This day comes once in almost everyone's life. But it feels special to me.I am not sure why it feels special, considering there were no great achievements, no big awards, no special recognition.
But this month, its been one year, and that seems to count more than anything else right now.
There are many aspects to this blog. There's the technical aspect (obviously), then the social aspect (obviously) and of course, the emotional aspect.(if u know me well, this is also obvious). So dont look for structure.
People who work here are limited in variety. Huge chunks of them speak similar languages.
Tams are like switches. Dont ask me why, but they just are.
Then there are the famous Mallus. They re like trunks(Trengs) and ofcourse one kwicks. Their language is easiest to pick up (but not to learn) and imitate, and hence they provide me with maximum entertainment.
Then there are Telugus, freekos. Speak few good things about telugu flicks, u will be the best friend to them.
Then there are Northies.But the good thing about northies, is, they all have a common base - hindi.
By the way, I speak to all these varieties in English.
And last but not least we kannadigas, who feel proud in talking or knowing any other language other than our own.
Anyways... these plain varieties did not welcome me with the red carpet . Everyone takes you lightly, they look at you strangely if you ask them silly questions. That was August 2005.
But today, nothings the same.
I have decided not to talk about my work here, because it is neither interesting, nor entertaining, for that matter but still lots to learn. The reason this work is done by me is obvious ( like most things). uffff, its really not that bad. I m just too lazy to describe it in the philosophical light.
Its been a good year, a good job, and a great life.
