Hey y'all

It's been years, I read my last blow just now, felt like a time travel. Anyways, now I am in the UK, on site. Same company but in a better position.

Travelled half the world and am a lot happier than I was when I wrote my last post.

Wow, time flies.

from college life to corprate life

2007-10-20T00:24:00.000-07:00

Its 7:15 a.m. and I stand here in the bus stop waiting for the office
bus to
arrive. I stand here in the same manner as I did a few years back
waiting for
my college bus. Little did I know then that things would change so much
in
just a year; the sky under which I am standing seems to be looking at
me and
smiling. It is perhaps the only thing that has acted as a witness,
watching
the transformation of a loud and bubbly person into a quiet
professional.

I wouldn't blame the professionalism for the change though. It is
destiny, or
may be you could call it life. Yes Life, esoteric in the true sense,
for one
does not understand why you meet hundreds of people everyday, work with
so
many and still remain lonely.

I am now in one of the corner seats in the bus, looking out of the
window
watching people trying to catch up with " life" . It's an hour's
journey and
the only company that I generally have is the chatter of the RJ. I
seldom
notice the person sitting next to me, for its going to be yet another
stranger or may be you could say another acquaintance. It is annoying
at
times when the radio is switched off, not because I am cut off from the
melody but because I would now be thrust with thoughts of the solitary
journey ahead.

I can't help thinking about the short bus journeys to college. Well
it's a
paradox to call a distance of 30 KMs "short", but that is how it always
seemed. A typical college day always begins in the bus with all the
familiar
faces; you look forward for all your friends to get in from the various
stops, the reasonless giggles, the loud laughter that were stifled to
avert
the eyes of the lecturers and professors who would watch on us as if we
were
their prospective prey for the day; well as I said it was a different
life
then. The pleasant memories of college are in itself good enough to
save me
from the misery of the bus journey.

I notice that it is time for me to get down and flash my smile of
acknowledgement to all the known strangers that I see as I approach my
cubicle. A few of my colleagues greet me with their morning wishes and
as
always, we exchange our pleasantries. Discussions jump to the weekend
plans
and I wonder what I'd do over the weekend.

It would be just another day staring at the mobile, wishing it would
ring and
bring back some wonderful moments that are now missing in life or maybe
the
safer option would be to come to office, for it's my new founded asylum
these
days. A few years back, weekends or weekdays didn't matter to me, I was
always busy. I always stood doubting the authenticity of the wall clock
that
seemed to be in running too fast to perceive its movement. Alas, now it
seems
as though my clock is suffering from some kind of paralytic attack.

There is a time in life, where one needs to go ahead, leaving behind
your
friends and carrying along only memories. You do make new friends, but
then
you never get the old close ones . You do meet people who'd be so good
to you
that you could tell them anything and everything, but you do not find a
person to whom you needn't say things.... friends who just know you.
Occasional calls from such friends have been the only thing that I seem
to
look forward to. However,I cant help but notice the uneasy pause that
lingers
around the conversation. A pause not because of the relationship, but
because
it is too short duration to say everything, and of course you cannot
completely rule out the paucity of words!

As I sip coffee from the ubiquitous coffee mug, watching the drops of
rain,
trickling down the tinted glass panes, veiling the scenic beauty
outside, I
tell myself, may be there will be a day when things will change, when
life
will offer a rewind, a recap of all the events and I just have to wait.

Capricious are the ways of life, for I know there would be many who'd
be able
to empathize with me, ironically, even the dear ones that I miss this
moment,
waiting perhaps...!!

And I keep on waiting.....

hey people...was not posting anything on my blog for the past two days,cause nothing really happened......but today I'm back because something really bad happened, last night sombu came in my dream....it was in double act by him,one clamming to be his twin brother,he was bigger than him....both of them differed from the real sombu only in the hair style and i cant really remember if they had a mush....but both of them were lunatic, they were hitting me like crazy, one of them slammed my head against a marble pillar repeatedly,with a wicked laughter...it was in front of the new seminar hall at the eee block at college....i was freaked,and woke up only to find it was a dream....so beware of sombu.....

2007-06-13T03:32:00.000-07:00

hey....my internet got disconnected all of a sudden yesterday...but nothing really interesting yesterday......well i tried changing the theme of my blog,but could not make up my mind....i changed upto a dozen skins (put the pics of two)....making choises is difficult....any suggestions?....and oh,i ruined my old one,kind of difficult to get that one back....

'guys',when it comes to girls...

2007-06-11T05:12:00.000-07:00

this was a fwd sent to me by anusha, must accept, most of it is true......thought u people must take a look...

*Belive it or not.......
1. Guys don't actually look after good-looking girls. they prefer neat and presentable girls.
2. Guys hate flirts.
3.When a guy says he doesn't understand you, it simply means you're not thinking the way he is.
4. Guys may be flirting around all day but before they go to sleep, they always think about the girl they truly care about .
5. When a guy really likes you, he'll disregard all your bad characteristics.
6. Guys go crazy over a girl's smile.
7. Guys will do anything just to get the girl's attention.
8. When you touch a guy's heart, there's no turning back.
9. When a girl says "no", a guy hears it as "try again tomorrow". .... so true.
10. You have to tell a guy what you really want before he gets the message clearly.
11. Guys love their moms.
12. A guy would sacrifice his money for lunch just to get you a couple of roses.
13. A guy often thinks about the girl who likes him. But this doesn't mean that the guy likes her.
14. You can never understand him unless you listen to him.
15. If a guy tells you he loves you once in a lifetime. He does.
16. Beware. Guys can make gossips scatter through half of the face of the earth faster than girls can.
17. Like Eve, girls are guys' weaknesses.
18. Guys are very open about themselves.
19. It's good to test a guy first before you believe him. But don't let him wait that long.
20. Guys hate it when their clothes get dirty. Even a small dot.
21. Guys really admire girls that they like even if they're not that much pretty.
22. If a guy tells you about his problems, he just needs someone to listen to him. You don't need to give advice ... very true.
23. A usual act that proves that the guy likes you is when he teases you.
24. Guys cannot keep secrets that girls tell them.
25. Guys think too much.
26. Guys fantasies are unlimited.
27. Girls' height doesn't really matter to a guy but her weight does! ... very true.
28. Guys tend to get serious with their relationship and become too possessive. So watch out girls!!!
29. Guys are more talkative than girls are especially when the topic is about girls.
30. You can truly say that a guy has good intentions if you see him praying sometimes.
31. If a guy says you're beautiful, that guy likes you.
32. Guys hate girls who overreact.
33. Guys love you more than you love them IF they are serious in your relationships.
Doesn't this all make sense?

2007-06-11T04:06:00.000-07:00

2007-06-07T05:54:00.000-07:00

hey people,(just like yesterday,i'm typing the whole thing all over again because my stupid firefox browser crashed just when i was about to complete my post).... never mind, seriously,nothing really happened today,apart from watching tv and browsing the net,never really did anything useful....but i caught up with some really interesting software for my mobile phone....it is called 'fing',if u have a 'symbian os version 3' phone,u can very well download it from www.symbian-freeware.com..using that u can make free calls through skype ,g talk and msn with a gprs connection...kindda cool,and u can also chat ofcourse..... apart from that,never really did anything useful...was watching 'ice princess' the movie on star movies till now...already seen the movie for over a dozen times,but i really like the sprit it pours into me...the main character of the movie really impresses me with the hard work,i really love being that way...she is cool at studies and is an ice skating champion too,she works part-time in a canteen,baby sits and tutors too...most importantly,she makes it to harward for a physics scholarship which she gives up so that she can follow her dreams,which is to become a great skater....oops,i told u the entire story,thats what happens when i have nothing to mention...infact,this is what happens in the exam hall too,no wonder i fill all the 40 pages of my answer book...lolz...

anyways,a similar type of movie that pours the spirit into me is 'honey',jessica alba has an awesome role in that...apart from being sizzling hot,a wonderful hip hop dancer...she is a hard worker too,she teaches dance,works at a cd store and also at a night club...then later she becomes a choreographer...busy all the time....some day,i'll be like that,working hard....but for now,i'm more than satisfied in being lazy...(u might want to check out http://www.honeymovie.com/...it has cool sound tracks too)

another movie that i must mention when it comes to motivation is 'the mighty ducks'...it is kind of a kiddish movie,but for team spirit,its the best...no way..i'm not telling u this story too... guess i will be going out tonight,better get ready...

i put up pics from the movies i mentioned... the girl in the lavender sweater (Hayden Panettiere) is just a supporting actress in the 'ice princess' ..but when it comes to looks,i like her better than the actress with the main roll....pretty ah? the other one is from 'the mighty ducks' the hot pic is jessica alba from the movie 'honey'...cant wait to see her in 'the fantastic 4 (part two)'...it will be coming soon.

2007-06-06T03:26:00.000-07:00

lights....music.....let the drums roll....ta da....i'm back...

long time ah?....well,things have changed a lot during this period....things i thought never would happen have happened,some of them bad but most of them good....as always,life's good....as of now,life is at its best....

first of all, a great big 'HI' to v and g.k , u people are my inspiration

blogging is not as easy as i thought it would be...dont mind me,i'm a lazy goose....

hmmm,where shall i start (actually,this is the second time i'm typing the whole thing out,the first time i did it,the power went off just when i was about to finish) .... anyways,so from now on i shall not be called joseph raymond the great..i
shall be called joseph raymond the great b.tech....thats right,i'm done with my engineering.....for all u hardcore rock music fans,who are wondering what i'm doing with an engineering instead of becoming a rock star "wait,there is still time"...

ok...lots of things have happened lately,but due to personal reasons some of them are censored...well,most of them are..

lets start with the exams,went to sombu's place as usual for studying during the sem,had lots of fun,lots and lots of fun this time....played cricket,hit the movies,played carom,..and a few other naughty things at arul's place apart from
studying...the guys hit my place for the night and pulling vandu's leg was the top entertainment,atleast for kural it was...have lots of videos and pics to post about it....lolz...that includes kural and lux snoring the roof off while i was having a hard time sleeping in between them...

the exams were over in a flash,just three exams....did not do them very well...but did ok,guess will do to make a pass...the last exam was like attending a funeral,just hated it,everyone saying good byes,divya handing over her wedding invitation,some of the students crying....damn,cant get it out of my mind....now that the exams were over,everyone back home were asking me to come back to coimbatore,but that was the last thing i wanted to do,so i stayed back at chennai....kural stayed with me for a few days,we used to hit sombu's place,the movies .... ect ..we even stayed at kural's place for a couple of days,it was cool,we used
to hit the beach at nights and lux,kur and me used to chat here till past midnight.....then eveyone back home were getting desperate of what i was up to,so they decided to shift,all the things were moved out and it was me and the haunted house alone...tragedy,now i had to go home...so i did,coimbatore it was,but not for long,i could not stay away from chennai (cause a cyclone had hit chennai..(faced it on the 17th)..lolz)....so came back to chennai with divya's wedding as the excuse...the wedding (25th may)was great,everyone had come and i never felt better to see those faces...

25th may...what a day...the perfect date...lolz

stayed at the empty haunted house of mine for a few days,no firdge,no ac,no tv,no computer,no nothing.....
the house was hot,infact on 26th it was hotter than chennai in summer....double lolz

spent the remaining few days mostly at mocha,sathyam and the beach....tripple lolz

went for karthi's sister's wedding on the 27th,was dead tired when i went there..cause had roamed the city since 7am and had only a small nap at kural's place in the afternoon...

oh my god,biji just messaged me that my final results have come....me biting my nails....will have to wait for him to check on it..time now (4.22pm on my clock 6/june/07)
anyways coming back to the story with half my breath,shivering fingers,numb toes,a dry throat,and sweating forehead inspite of the air conditioner being at 18 degree celcius...well,then i came back to coimbatore after a few more wonderful days at chennai,as a matter of fact unforgettable days at chennai....

hit ooty,awesome climate there,hail stones were showering and me,my bro,my cousine were drenched....had stayed a day there...left bro at the hostel and came back home(sathy)....bought half a kilo of home made chocolates,and ate them all by myself....lolz...now sitting here with nothing else to do...last night ashok recharged for me and today morning activating the internet on my mobile was my main job...so will be online more often for the next seven days....

did i mention,my name has come on the list by the indialouge website of tech mahindra(well,do u people even remember i got placed in TM?)

the results have come...yepiiii...the time now 4.533 pm....and i cleared all the subjects.....got a CSABC....dont know for what subjects,but who cares,i am now a complete engineer....get ready world,u are going to change....

and hey,checkout raga's video,got lots of more funny videos,but the guys will kill me if i put them up....lolz

2007-04-23T06:24:00.000-07:00

wow,awesome....is there a better way to describe a day?....if so,use it to think of how my day was today......it has almost been a perfect week...,i put up some pics from the official farewell day....and the pic in which i'm wearing the blue shirt,it was during the photo session,wanted to put it up for a long time...take a peek...

anyways,about today.....today i had my final project review..my sem project ....stayed up all night preparing the presentation,and downloading stuff for my n71...and did i mention,i got my phone back...it came after the service and is working perfectly fine now(other that the fact that the output sound is only half of what it used to be)....ok,coming back to todays happenings, after finishing the ppt,went to bed at about 6 in the morning and had only about 2 hours to sleep....after that i woke up and got ready,just then my project partner(mani) called me up and asked me to come fast...i took off to college and reached there by 9.45 and started cracking the code which i have already done a hundred times ...and ofcourse had a grt time irritating lachu and the others....then after lunch break it was our turn to present the review...and as soon as we went in,the external went 'how irresponsible', cause we did not leave him any space to sign,it must have been a bad impression but we cleared it all up....did the presentation with confidence and presence of mind as usual,i love presenting papers....and what can i say,the demo of the defence android was better than ever,the wireless video streaming was crystal clear and the external was very impressed,in fact he kept singing praises about us to our hod...hod and panbu mam were very impressed....thank god i did not let my hod down...he has been so good to my team,he did not make us run up and down for the record work like he did to the others,he supported us so much,he was such a great inspiration to me...and so the story ends with me being happy,my project mate being almost fully happy(he thinks that i stole his thunder during the presentation ),the hod being happy,the project coordinater being happy,the external being happy and my friends being happy(the five people behind me in that pic) ,because my happiness is their happiness("is it not?"..lolz...)...(well they did their presentations well too).........morel of the story 'u do ur best,god will do the rest' or atleast the rest will happen on its own...and that is anusha,sandy, me and oooo in that pic...the other pic has lux(in a weird traditional costume), kural(the boss),hari(vandu-lens of life),me,and g-man(stallings)...the last pic has poo(wensday addams),deeps(droopy,pheobe),aparna(carrot-onion),v(sunshine),lachu(the loo,"rhyming is it not?")....

2007-04-21T00:10:00.000-07:00

too busy and no net connection....those are reasons for me not blogging for so long....anyways, me at the lab now...compleated my record work and got it signed too....and oh, had the official farewell yesterday,was awesome...

2007-04-12T09:17:00.000-07:00

yesterday we had our farewell,what a day...coming to think about it,it was the best day in my college life...had loads of fun....let me tell u what happened the entire day long....was supposed to be at kodambakkam at 7.45am so that i could join the other guys in A.D's car to the resort in ECR....but when i finished having my bath it was 7.50 already so i asked the guys to leave without me,now i had no idea of how i was going o make it there on time cause i did not know where it was or how i was supposed to get there...so called up sombu (a.k.a anand),and asked him if i could join him,he is a great guy, he flatly said yes and that he would talk to bala cause he himself was to going in bala's car...and so i asked him to wait at the station and got a bus to tambaram,when i reached tambram,he was waiting for me...both of us got into the train and it was only then he told me that bala's car was already full and i had to find a better way to get there,so called up lax and told him that i wold join him,and lucky i was for his bike's back seat was free for me....so went to kural's place in bala's car and from there came with lux in his bike....reached the "green coconut" resort on time....was playing around there for an hour or so and then some 10 of us got up and hit the beach because there was a delay in the start of the program,the tide was high and we had an awesome time at the beach(that is the pic of me at the beach,nice abs ha?),just when i was starting to get exhausted of playing,i got a call saying that the party was going to start in a few minuts and they wanted us to get back...so changed clothes and went back to the resort.....every thing was set for the party to begin...and it was yuvaraj's birthday too,so had a usual mess with the cake and snow spray...then the jouniors had arranged for some games,after that had lunch....G.K had brought the t-shirts designed for the farewell (planning is easy,but executing the plans if the tough part...hats off to u man)...changed on to the t-shirt....and oh,i almost forgot...HOD came in shorts and a beach shirt...man,he sure forgets his age,lucky to have an hod like him....(thats the pic of him in all his glory)...and then we were chating and teasing for sometime(i had my part in that too,but it was such a waste of time)..then started the glitter time,some wise guy came up with a packet of glitter and within seconds everyone was full of gitter,but i managed to get away from it untill my partner in crime (g.man a.k.a gouthaman) saw me without glitters while he himself was all colurful with glitters...he chased me all around the hall,but i managed to stay away from him and the others and rocketed out of the hall..,then, suprise, there was a whole lot waiting for me outside,the guys outside pounced on me and then everyone had their revenge....what an awesome time......then gotmyself washed,but that thing never seemed to leave my face.......played shuttle,volly,cricket,slide and swing for about an hour and then all of us hit the beach,some ten cars and a few bikes too(that includes lax and v,u make a grt pair,luv u people),man,we set the E.C.R road on fire....went to the beach which was about 5km away from the resort and it was heaven,we played like it was our last day in life......it was my best ever beach halt, tried building human pyramids,raced on the sea shore,almost got drowned a dozen times,got hit by sand balls,got burried in sand(checkout the pic),ahhhhhh....i wonder if i am ever going to have a time like that for the rest of my life.....it was 7.30 and no was in a mood to leave,tok lots of photos and then started home,i was with lax in his bike and bala's car was following us,we stopped near mayajaal for a drink and planned to hit the movies there since we were in no mood to go home..but we cancelled the plan cause it would become very late for the movie to get over...so we came back into city limits..and again no one felt like going home and it was only 8.30 so we went to the beasent nagar beach and had a awesome dinner there...and drove back to guindy in bala's car,got a bus to tambaram,then an auto to urapakkam and here i was home sweet home....was dead tired......and oh i forgot to mention 2 other things that made this day 1)v has become an aunt,thats right,her sister has a kid and its a boy,(thank god it was not a girl,that family would not want another brat like v...lolz...kidding) and 2) pooja straigtend her hair,sle looks like Mrs. Adam's in open hair,....lolz....but looks real nice(dont tell her this,she might start flying)....
