Caption please..... (My Best Friend(s) wedding )

Here we go... Nice caption will fetch you some good gifts ... Click on comments and write down what you think about Ravi & Vijendar and Smitha & Sujitha secret conversations ...

Whatz up?

Finally, some meaningful comments on my blog and thats definitely encouraging sign for me to continue blogging. Raghu's comments on my Four years post really made me to consider group blogging with our friends network. Yk's comments shows his interest in blogs as well as lazyness in writing it.

Met with an accident and accidentally met my classmate Srihari. Stupid Autowala's sudden right turn near ganga theatre left me in no choice except kissing his auto, which inturn ended up having three injections on left ,right and center. Don't call me asking about my bike .. It's absolutely fine.. No problem with it..

What else? Started Distributing cards for Prabodhan's Marriage ,Met lot of relatives and friends and all of them asked my unfavorite questions about marriage and U.S. After about 1.5 month on bench, My project is going to start on Aug 8th and I'm going to work under my Oracle colleague..

Finally some numbers game .. 100 friends on orkut and 129 hits on my blog in the last 20 days and surprisingly more than 50 memebers turned up for Workflow training.

Weekend

Pokiri movie on Friday, Egg curry experiment on Satday, some stupid soap on T.V, even more stupid scraps on orkut, Delicious Lunch (Of course , Chicken) on Sunday, Duplex house Visit ,Angrez movie in the evening and night walk after dinner. That's it ... End of another routine weekend.

Four years

I never realized that I'm the only one among my classmates and hostelmates , who is in Hyderabad for four years straight after completion of Engineering ,until Shashi reminded me about that, when I congratulated him for his new job in Bajaj-Allianz. Going deeper, I realized that Vijendar is the only guy in India (Bangalore ) among my Best friends..

It makes me sick ,that I'm alone.. the fact that couple of my cousin - roomates ,who stayed in my room , left India makes me even more sick.. Am I really alone? I don't know ,but it is not the same kind of fun I'm having these days as it was, when they are around and it became more evident when last of my best buddy (YK) left India.. YK's effect was clear on the very next day ,when I went for morning walk alone..

I don't know whether it's accidental or something else ,but almost all my decisions ended up staying in Hyderabad.. Four years back, I decided to join CMC over pursuing Masters at Arizona state University. A year later, I chose Oracle Over Infosys and now I left this company, when I almost got the chance to go to U.S. I absolutely have no regrets for all these decisions ,but It would have been even more happier ,if some of my best pals around.

I'm sick of answering the question "Why are you not going to U.S." . Why Should I?? Seriously ,I didn't find any proper reason to go to U.S. I always wonder ,what makes people stay in U.S. Is it Money ?, Friends?? Or Quality of Life ??? Even after going there , there is no gurantee that I'll be staying with my friends.. I'm earning quite decently here and my new consulting job gives good chance to roam around the world and more importantly I'm staying closer to family. I'm Sure most of my classmates consider coming back to India, If Kishore comes back, but this stupid guy became so americanized that he is not even thinking of coming back..

I too sick of answering "When are you getting married" stuff. Till three months back ,that question was only from my relatives and now even my friends started asking the same question after two of my best friends (Ravi and Vijendar) got married last month. Ok, Ok, no complaints about staying alone.. This is much better than getting married (at least now).

Here is my plan, wait for a year (I turn 26 by that time) , Go on-site for some time , get feedback from Ravi and Vijendar about their married life and then decide. Did I tell you that my plan of having lunch( around 1 PM) with Ravi and Vijendar families ended up in we three (Ravi, Vijendar and me) meeting at 11:30 PM in the night ?

Ridiculous

People in Patna are praying for Italy's win in Football Worldcup ,along with Sonia Gandhi's Photo. Heights of foolishness..

Total Expenditure of recent Local Elections in Andhra Pradesh is Over Rs,1,000 Crores out of which 350 cr is spent on wine ,which made a voter to drop a letter in Ballet box saying he won't vote again till the culture of 'One Liquor bottle and 100 Rs per vote' vanishes..

On a completely different note, MCDonald's opened it's first shop in Hyderabad at Prasad's Imax , another spot to hang around in Hyderabad...

Foot ball Worldcup

World cup football is something special to me. 1998 world cup brings back memories of early days in enginering college and 2002 worldcup was around the same time , I joined my first job. This time around, I moved to consulting from development ,thank god.. No more coding.

This one is more special as I have freedom to watch football on T.V. We didn't have T.V in 1998 and none of my hostelmates allowed me to watch football in 2002 except for Final match of Brazil Vs Germany. Now, I' m watching evreything including pre & post match discussions Harsha, Jerry and Steve and all these last only for three hours .( what else you expect from an Indian football fan who got used to watch cricket for eight hours straight)

Harsha Bhogle, The voice of Indian cricket is back on ESPN. It's been a while since I heard of quality commentory, seriously ,tired of listening Manjrekar, Arun lal and other stupid commentators. As a great fan of Harsha ,I enjoyed his presence on ESPN ,but most of my friends ,who are true foot ball fans were badly missing John Dykes. I stopped arguing with them until they asked me 'Do you watch Cricket Worldcup with John Dykes??' Hell No. No one else in the world match Harsha, As far as cricket commentory is concerned...

Which team to support was the biggest question ? To support France (for Henry) or Brazil or England or Germay... I ruled out Brazil as I hate same team winning so many times and I'm no great fan of Germany either... I chose England over France as there are more known faces like Gerrad, Lampard,Rooney and Beckham ,on the other hand France has only one great player (Henry) as Zidane is old..

Worldcup started ,not many surpises ,except of Ghana and Ukrain making into round of 16. France,England,Brazil,Ukrain,Italy,Germany ,Argentina and portuagal were in last eight. Germany Vs Argentia, Italy Vs Ukariane , Brazil Vs France, England Vs Portugal. Wow!!! All great matches (except Italy match) .... First two matches were scheduled for Friday and last two were on saturday. On Friday Germany and Italy won as I expected ,but on saturday I was completely wrong...

First surprise was England lost ,the team which I decided to support was no more in the worldcup.Rooney's arrogance sent him out , Gerrand and Lampard were unable to perform when it really mattered. I swear, I'm not going to support England in near future.

Another surprise of the day was France won over Brazil, with Theirry Henry's goal... Can't Believe it... Thanks to Roberto Carlos, who allowed Henry to convert Ziju's free kick to a goal.. Carlos had a great chance to mark Henry,but I'm not sure ,why he played spectator's role.. Zizu was outstanding in the match , He proved me wrong, He was so perfect ,infact he is the only Real madrid player who performed to his full potential in this worldcup..

Back to Henry and France.. I'm supporting France now.. With Henry,Viera and Zidane ,they are going to win this worldcup... I'm expecting France Vs Germany final on July 9th, Lets wait and see..
