Its almost one year since I have visited US !!

Time is moving fast...! Its been one year since I have visited the US!! I though of calling all my hosts there...! I have started with Micky, my favourite host!! 

I was talking to her for about 7 minutes yesterday morning..! and I was talking to David also!! I am still wondering about the time...! In one single year how many things happened...!! I have met both joy and sorrow to the maximum extent in that year! I lost my kid, quit my previous job for good, joined edserv, shifted my family to Chennai, providing consultancy to companies here... planning to start my own business soon....  I was even talking about my business idea to Mickie and family and my plan to promote it in the US... 

Another good thing...I have started writing on my blog regularly as before from today onwards.. I have also added Amazon Associates to my right bar...! So please keep visiting...!

It's a happy day again...!!

It's a happy day again... for the simple reason that I am back into my normal life...! It's been almost 2 months since i have wrote here...! It's been series of challenges i have faced in the past 100 days that broke me into pieces...!
But luckily I have recovered from them slowly!
Now... I am out of my previous employer and joined as the Sr Manager in a company called EdServ..! New company, new place...! Yes I have shifted to Chennai, one of the biggest metropolis in India ...!
Hope this change will bring new prospects into my life...!
It's a happy day again.... for many reasons!!

I miss you my daughter...!

This day last month, the 6th day of December 2009, the black day in my life, my daughter left us ....! Its been a month since she left us... but still we are not able to recover from that tragedy...

No words to write ... In tears ... still...

I am in tears...! Lost my 4 days old daughter...!!

We are in deep sorrow as our pre-maturely born baby (30 weeks of pregnancy) died after surviving only for 4 days. Last week my wife's BP got shot up to 210/110. The doctors advised to terminate the pregnancy atleast to save the mother.
After a week of treatment in intensive care, yesterday only I have brought my wife back home. I am still not alright....! I feel alone...!
I will write more on this later

Thanks for coming back...!

It is becoming difficult for me to write here everyday...! Though I am very much eager writing here regularly, the past couple of weeks keeping me busy in various activities...! As you know I have travelled to Chennai and stayed there for couple of days, fell sick for a few days, travelled to Trivandrum last weekend and so on kept me busy...!

There are few other factors also caused the irregularity in posting here includes the offers coming from various employers (as they require me to submit proposals about their business to evaluate my skills, I spend most of my free time preparing them...)

I am also discussing with few tech experts to partner with me to come out with a new website to conduct online drawing competitions...! These are all the excuses to support my irregularity in posting here :) ...!

But I should thank those all who are coming back to visit my blog though I haven't wrote regularly...! Do keep visiting...!

Day before yesterday, my second maternal uncle came to our house to invite us for his daughter's marriage to be held on 27th November. This year have given us (our extended family members) lots of opportunities to get together...! The marriage will also be one of such days...!

Another weekend is nearing ..! Have a happy weekend..!

Rolled on a muddy slippery wet land...!

Thanks for Mickie for writing 5 comments to my posts and become a follower of my blog...! I should also apologize for my delayed email reply to her...! I was not in town for the past 3 days and hence not able to post here...! I have started on Friday to Trivandrum for my health checkup...! Normally we use to be there for two days ...!

My father-in-law changed his house to a new area nearer to the old one...! The house owner allowed them to rent the house with the condition that they should not cook non-veg there...! So this time I have missed the sea food there..!

Since it is raining and the evenings become more chiller, we have started earlier this time at around 2 pm yesterday... We caught the bus almost it was moving out of the bus terminal...! when it has crossed the big mountain and came down there was a block on the road...! A huge tree fell down across the road blocking the entire traffic on both the sides...!

I have called up my friend in Shenkottai to bring his car there... Unfortunately he was out of town ... We have decided to cross the blocked area...! But there was no go to cross it by road...! It was raining also...! We dared to cross the region through the wet, muddy and slippery farm land on the sides..!

There were luggages hanging on both my shoulders and I was holding my son in one hand... Due to that weight, my legs got stuck deep in the mud and I was not able move forward...! When I have tried heavily, one leg got released suddenly which led me to fell down...

But my reflex worked very well ... its only me sat on the mud.. Neither my son nor the luggages even touched down... Then I have removed my slippers then the worse become worst...! There were small thorns all along there...!

I have somehow managed to cross that region and seen one of the police vehicle moving towards the town...! I have asked for a lift and reached the nearby town safely...!

Its all in the game...!

Back in town.. Back from Fever...!

Wondering why there were no posts for the past one week...? Actually I have left for Chennai last Tuesday night as part of my job change process...! I have really planned to put a word about it on my post dated 03rd November...!

But due to busy work, I was not able to post on that day...! As I have arrived in Chennai on 04th November, it was heavily raining there and I was busy rescheduling my plans for that day keeping in mind that I should effectively plan those two days....!

I have got an appointment to meet one of the pioneering education service provider company's Chairman in the afternoon (I will reveal the company name once I get all the papers from them..) The discussion (interview) went on for little more than 3 hours. At the end, I have been asked to submit a business plan and roadmap the next day.

When I have reached my cousin's home it was already 8 and I was totally wet in the rain... Then my cousin took me to a nearby hotel for dinner... We have returned back some close to 10 pm in the night...!

The next day he left for work at 8 and I have caught cold and was feeling feverish...! But I was very determinant to win the task..! After the breakfast I have started preparing the roadmap and business plan to be submitted in the afternoon...!

Well... In the afternoon my submission proved winning...! I have been told that I will be getting the offer soon..! Happy that I have won an another game...! But I have become very weak physically due to cold and fever...!

Somehow managed the remaining part of the day by some purchasing of toys and snacks for my little kid, couple of meetings and an overnight travel back home...!

Worse became worst...! When I have reached my town It was heavily raining filling all the ponds in that region in just two days of rain...! Didn't attend to the office on Friday and took rest as per doctor's advice... But the health remained same till Sunday...!

When I have felt a little better, I didn't want to remain idle at home and attended the office..! But the devil (fever) didn't allow me in the afternoon...!

So I have come to office on a regular basis only from yesterday and due to the piled up work of the previous week and regular meeting today morning, now only I have got time to write here though it is a relatively longer post

Hope you enjoyed it...! Will write more daily...!

Please stay tuned...!

Happy family get together...!

There were couple of reasons kept me away from writing here for the past couple of days...! The OFC got cut off at the office and caused the failure of Internet connectivity, my broadband router got a problem and caused 'no Internet' at home till Saturday, and I was not in town yesterday (Hope you remember) to take part in one of my relative's betrothal function...!

Almost all of my relatives were there to attend the function...! I thought it would be appropriate to take a video of all of us sitting together to have our feast...! The best part of it is I had a chance to sit together with my first maternal uncle to have the feast...!

Its all about happy moments...!

Its raining and it is beautiful..!!

I was very busy the entire day yesterday and could not write my regular post here..!

Today the day has started very pleasantly...! It was an awesome experience to ride on the motor cycle as the cool breeze blowing to make the mind fresh!!

As I have wrote earlier, my son is suffering cold. So I have decided to take him to the hospital...! So I have started little past noon and drove to my son's school to pick him up on the way to Rajapalayam...!

On our way back, it was heavily raining and I found it difficult to drive on a rainy day...! Because the road was foggy and not able to get a clear vision on that foggy atmosphere..!

As it is a more traveled road, I have somehow managed to reach home safely...!

Now it is about 10.00 pm in the night, just waiting for one of my friend to join me for chat on my career plans...!

That's all today...! See you tomorrow..!

First exam to attend...!

Again it is a very short Tuesday today..! Very busy till I left my office...!

Once I reached home I thought of going out with my son... ! Actually he got cold for the past couple of days...! Though I used to suggest immediate medication or a doctor's consultation, his mother normally used prepare herbal medication by boiling Tulsi leaves, Mint leaves and Palm Sugar...!

I didnt had much trust on such home made medications, but as the results were good, I am not apposing them these days...!

So I have took him to shops to buy Tulsi and bananas. He also bought a Milkybar chocolate (one of his favourites... the other one is bourbon biscuits)

I used to get him his favourite chocolate if he does something new or special...! Tomorrow he will be attending his first school test...! Should be exciting for him...! My best wishes will always be there for him...!

I had my dinner earlier today as I was feeling very tired... I am about to go to bed now...!

Rushing to the office this morning...!

Hope you have spent your weekend good... For me things didn't go as I have planned.. Previously I have planned to go to our family temple near Rajapalayam. But as I could not get a vehicle, I have dropped the idea of going there....

Then you knew I have wrote I was planning to go to Tirunelveli. As the person I have planned to meet was unavailable, I didn't go there too...! So I have simply settled with a good lunch only yesterday...!

Then the week started with a rush this morning...! When I was about to have my breakfast, my boss called me on my mobile and told he will be leaving to Madurai for an official trip and wanted to have supporting docs urgently!!

I have decided not to take my breakfast .! I have picked up my son and dropped him in his school and rushed to my office...! After making every document he needed ready, I had my breakfast at the college canteen little lately today...

Then the good news of today is, one of the long held scrips of mine soared to new heights (now it is up 20% than the previous day!!)... Hope it will move further to touch new heights tomorrow.... As I am having handful the stocks of the scrip, probably I may sell it tomorrow if everything goes as excepted...!

See you tomorrow...!

Contradict to my yesterday's post...!

This is my second post today... Hope you have read my earlier post (It is 150 now and still growing..!) also.

Yesterday I have wrote that the week has come to an end without much interesting stories to share...! It was written about 3 pm yesterday..! But I have got a call from my Mom that my second maternal uncle has come to my home...!

I thought it would be appropriate for me to go home earlier so that I can meet him..! He was there to invite all of us for the betrothal function of his third daughter on 1st of November...!

Happy to attend...! Yet another opportunity for all for all of our relatives to get together...! As you know me, I love to be with people...! Looking forward to that day!! There will be atleast two more such days before end of this year...!

One on November 27 - the same girl's wedding and one another on December 11 - Balaji's Wedding...!

Tomorrow I may probably travel to Tirunelveli in the afternoon...!

Meet you again on Monday...!

It is 150 now and still growing!!

This is my 150th post on my blog...! One will tend to write more when he get the feeling that someone is reading...! I am a happy writer here, because I have atleast one good special regular reader ...!

Though I love to be member of social networking websites, I am not very actively and regularly viewing the profiles of every friend.. But I use to view only a few profiles in Orkut very regularly as their way of thinking matches my interests..! Say it be their title message or images or videos, its all matches my interests ...!

So I would take this opportunity to thank them...

Then about my yesterday and today, I will update you in the afternoon!!

Another end of the week!!

As expected the week has come to an end without much interesting stories to share here...! Since this morning we are busy attending to the National Conference conducted by the department of management studies at our campus..

I didn't even gone home for lunch today... I have been invited by the department people to take part in the valedictory function and to distribute prizes and certificate to best performers of the event...!

Happy to leave for that in another 15-20 minutes...!

Tomorrow is a working day for us..! So there will be an another post dated tomorrow..! My LinkedIn network has grown to 31 as against any other social networks where I am a member...!

If you have not yet joined my professional network at LinkedIn, you are most welcome to join...!

See you tomorrow...!

All those happening in my life... Am I special...?

I have been a warrior since my birth... fighting against almost all kind of odds should or should not come across in his life....

I have met lots of ups, downs, frustrations, showering affection, successes, defeats and those not explained in words here... There were times I thought God is ruthless on me...

But later I have started taken it as I am special... that is why I am given all kind of feelings to live with...!

This week is going very tightly scheduled... Today I have returned from office little late... Even this afternoon I could not go to my son's school to pick him up..! Even tomorrow will also be very busy I think...

Will write more tomorrow...!

Wondering how it works...!

Its been 14 good years since I have started using computers...! I still remember the first computer I have owned had only 8 mb of RAM and 640 mb of hard disk only. But I was successfully using it for resource consuming graphics designing works!!

Those days the highest external memory I have ever used was a ZIP Drive with a 100 mb cassette type floppy...! But within a little more of a decade technology improved in lightning speed...!

The recent purchase I have made was a 1 tb hard disk that too at half of the cost I have spent to buy a 4 GB hard disk a decade ago...!

Not only that, things and people are changing on a fast pace..!

Note : This post means I dont have any remarkable incidents happened in my life for the past two days to write here. So there is a old story... :) Bear with me...! :D

Prasanna trying Silambam!!

This is my second post today...! Hope you have read the previous one already!! The day after Diwali, when we were spending time at the backyard of my house, I have noticed my son picking up a stick and doing something with it...!

I have started watching him since then...! Then only I could understand that he was trying Silambam (one of the martial arts practiced in my part of the world for centuries together)...!

It was a great surprise to me...! Because he never get a chance to learn it from a master except couple of the steps demonstrated by me that too just to entertain him couple of months back..!

I thought it would be worth taking a video of it and sharing with you...! It is all hidden talent inside every individual but should be given right opportunity to burst out...!

Thanks to those who have LinkedIn..!!

Its my pleasure to see some special people visiting my LinkedIn profile...! I should really thank them for having visited my profile at LinkedIn...!

Keep visiting...!

Suprising Diwali...!!

I remember I have promised to write one more post on last Friday before leaving for Diwali holidays..! As planned I have attended the office on Friday... but being a holiday, the network was put down at our campus and i could not keep up my promise on that day..!

As I have reached home only in the afternoon on Friday, I have rushed for shopping for the next big day!! Once all the purchase was over, it was almost 7 pm in the night..! As I have planned to wake up about 3 am the next morning, I decided to go to bed early than writing my post on that day...!

We have completed the Deepavali Pooja at around 5.30 am on Saturday morning...! After that I have started calling my friends to wish them a happy Diwali...!

But the real surprise was, the call I got from my first maternal uncle on my mother's mobile...! After talking to my mother, my aunt wanted to wish me followed by my uncle..!!

Its all after a very long break...! I remember those days when telephone was not a regular medium of communication when people have exchanged greeting cards to wish the kith and kin of their relatives and friends!!!

After that we have took photographs in the Diwali attire..! I knew my posts were very dry only with text and without photos or videos...! That is why I have posted a few here...!

Will post here tomorrow

3 good days have gone with lots of sleep and with no useful activities. But still there are lots of happy news to share. So please wait till tomorrow until i post them all here.
