28/10/07 to 10/28/07

I also got into the trap or onsite spree and decided to migrate to west coast for job-sake.
After having a wonderful living in Hyderabad, India with all my lovely (mokkai) roomies I am moving to non-lively neighbours country called United States. I was boarded in ba.com for my departure to LA, one of the best international airports in the world. (i loved it!). I haven't faced much strange feelings or issues travelling in the flight and immigration checks etc., So I safely landed in LA and went to Marriott hotels, the first 2 weeks stay here then I moved to the appartment with my ex and current colleague. Within 10 days of stay in US, i started roaming. First to SFO (San Francisco), it was awesome stay with Major kxxxu. We were simply rocking in the downtown for couple of days, then I went to Oracle Openworld for a day and got a mindblowing experience and realized how big the enterprise business is!
Then back to LA in last week, stayed there for 3 days in the apptmnt and again Thanks giving holidays in full swing, so decided to make a trip towards Central US and planned to visit minimum 3 states include Minneasota, Wisconsin and Chicago.
Yes, right now I m blogging this post from Starbucks (like India Cafe day), Minneasota downtown :)
I want to write more here, but got bored in blogging, thats why no logging nowadaz.. But I couldnt resist myself from giving a small comparison btw terms in India and US here.

[sorry yedho post podanumnu pottan, forgive me :P ]

Sivaji movie

Cool....
I liked all the sivaji english speaking dialogues from cool to gimme a break yaar.....

Rajni is bit different in that movie, unusual shankar movie but gud music by arrahman (rajnikagava potu irukarunu dhan sollanum ... balelaka balelaka....)

Movie highlights:

1. All songs n their locations
2. Papaiya, Raja n rajni comedy track
3. Vivek dialogues (Naan adhi... podang....kabodhi... too gud, like appa aathaa,, podang xxxx)
4. Typical shankar technicalities in the movie, starting frm Software Systems architect to voice recognition, transfering money thru NRI and other stuff... I m ardent fan of shankar technical direction n screenplay.

Minus:
Very few to mention
1. Villan - adhu enoma theriyala oru impresion create pannala, it cud hav been better if any other villan like prakashraj. but bcoz for telugu localization, they put telugu actor i guess.

apart from movie is good
minimum 100days...
good revenue for long-time loser AVM productions :)

perai sonnala summa adhirudhu ellai
- Sivaji The Boss

Kalainjaraku ponvizha.. ennaku velli vizha!

Edhanala oru janangalaku therivepadhu ennana..
ennaku eruvathu anji vayusu mudinjidichiangoooooooo......

Nothing spl on birthday, ennaiku as usuala dhaan pogudhu - normal typical dialogue which i told to the folks who cald me on my bday (really i was guilty bcoz i couldnt recollect their bdays )
but nalla pasanga gnabagam vachi pone panrango.. ..

[read the foll text in old movies style.... in shanthaaa... sandali... nayavanjaga style ...]
Vazhkai sakaram migavum vegamaga dhan suthukiradhu pol, yen endral ennale namba mudiyavillai enaku erabathu eindhu vayadhu agivitadhu enbadhai.. aiyoogooo..

Happy birthday wishes from...

Toastmasters.org

I recently joined in Toastmasters club here at Oracle, Hyderabad.
Toastmasters meet emphasize on developing our public speaking skills, listening skills, team work, leadership skills and so on.
Its good to see how we address people and how we speak on the topic which you know at instant.
Really cool, i always love to speak a lot about anything. (most interested to speak about technologies not hifi,wifi - simple technology or product which changes lives - not aptech ad :P, but evolutionary technologies like google or youtube or orkut or flickr which make you alcholic n addictive to use it)

My next topic of interest is Sports (from F1 to cricket, i love to speak about sports, but not much technical knowledge in all sports except cricket)

Then I can speak about all rubbish politics, hanging share market, stupid reservations in iits/iims. Not but the least i can give tons of advices to my younger generation (ask any of my friends who r affected ;)

I want to:
1. Develop good public speaking skills
2. Try to build rapport with people whom you don't know or meeting for first time
3. Read books, magazines to increase the size of your knowledge bank

I dont want to:
1. Give advice to fellow-human beings (but i can always advice my friends not to do this, i never hesitate to tel this atleast)
2. Feel shy to speak in a crowd whom are better than you in looks and talents
3. Vethu peelas, peteru, bong adikaradhu - i really dont wanna speak in the topic which i dont know at all ( i did this till this point of time in my life, started in aural-oral in schools, continued in college vivas, then campus interviews, then walkins, appraisal meetings, so on n so forth)
But i really started hating these a lot after understanding where we r upto n whr v r goin???

Cool....
I guess i m trespassing by 1st dont want to :P

cheers!
