Tour Diary: Tirupati (11 July 2014)

Companions: Bhaskar Narasimham, Ramya Krishna and Pardha Saradhi.
Day and Date: Friday 11 July 2014
Total Time elapsed: More than 12 hours.
                                                        Friday July 11, I along with my sister and cousin reached Tirupathi. I had heard a lot about the temple and this was the first time I was going to visit it. I had no idea about the temple and the memories I was going to make. The place was so hugely populated that it took us nearly 10 hours to witness what is described as the most aesthetic view by many great poets, in words that themself are autonomous and could take you through a trip of the place within no time whilst you are reading them. Between the lines you will find a place, a void filled in by your mind with the possible projection of beauty being described in the lines. Am not so spiritual in my views, but what I witnessed was something definitely stronger than my will not to believe in god. I stood there dumbstruck, lost in the charm of the idol of lord Vekateswara. It was dark in color but brighter in my view. All I saw was a idol of life size or even big which felt like it would inch a step closer , if I stood right there. I never knew but I had my eyes going wet with tiny droplets. Never felt like that before. Can't think of any more words to put it in here. It's something to be felt by oneself but not described or to be told by others. Make sure you visit Tirupathi once whenever it is possible for you. trust me it is worth all that you will go through.

Happy 2nd first Day at HCL ;)

When I first came to know that I was doing to step into the boot of an employee very soon, I was preparing myself for a life completely different to what I was living. A new beginning from the end of student life, a life with financial freedom (although Dad never said “No” to my demands, but own earning is a different level of financial freedom) added responsibility of being an employee of an MNC. I was very certain of being relocated from Hyderabad. Had my bags up and ready for a journey to a new place with a new life style waiting to be discovered. As expected was called to Bangalore (now Bengaluru) and I set out planning a life in the traffic and all the rush of high class social and corporate living beings of IT Capital of India. Day 1: went on with never ending sequence of signatures. Day 2: a boring yet energetic half day.   Day 3: very excitedly I reached office and was having a nice time cracking jokes and making friends. As if somebody cursed the largest laughter in t...

Life as an Employee

Its been almost 2 years since I have been part of the group of "Employee" stepped from the sneakers of "Student". Seems like a long time ago since I have been part of this group. Life was much more spontaneous and fun filled with no state of complete awareness of plans after an hour in the day. Simply put, things have changed. For good or bad I am now accustomed to a routine of walking in and out of office with decreasing the fun by a bit everyday I do so. Times have been difficult to cope with, broke down a few times but as they say "Time heals all", I was able to get back in shape though each time a little lesser than before. All the high stake passions have settled into a well laid out blanket of dust all around my days now. I walk out each morning watching children play, I keep thinking when did I change into this office going routinely boring guy? Perhaps I was asleep when I was being pushed by life into this mold and just woke up to realize that its...

r0mance of rAin and hYderaBad

Its been raining since the last five days in Hyderabad like anything.Rains are often the most unexpected in Hyderabad even in season.Such is the unexpectedness of rain.Driving in rain with coldest of water droplets coming down from heaven touching your face and palms. You feel warmer inside and chilled out outside.Every droplet of water bring a fresh fragrance of nature's beauty. The best part of rain has always been the aroma of soil that gets stuck to your olfactory organs and you won't come out of it.Had a pretty ordinary day at college drove onto the streets with a heavy drizzle on and somehow after going halfway to home felt spending some time all alone with the refreshing nature and find some peace and that proved to be a very nice and memorable decision I made in some time recently. Went on to drive past the silent Hussain Sagar lake. The necklace road was so mesmerizing in the view that I couldn't just drive past it.I parked my vehicle and got down removed my shoes...
