Touching love story

One of the finest love stories

From the very beginning, Gal?s family objected strongly on her dating this guy. Saying that it has got to do with family background, & that the gal will have to suffer for the rest of her life if she were to be with him. Due to family?s pressure, the couple quarrelled very often. Though the gal love the guy deeply, but she always ask him: ?How deep is your love for me?? As the guy is not good with his words, this often cause the gal to be very upset. With that & the family?s pressure, the gal often vent her anger on him. As for him, he only endured it in silence.

After a couple of years, the guy finally graduated & decided to further his studies overseas. Before leaving, he proposed to the gal: ?I?m not very good with words. But all I know is that I love you. If you allow me, I will take care of you for the rest of my life. As for your family, I?ll try my best to talk them round. Will you marry me?? The gal agreed, & with the guy?s determination, the family finally gave in & agreed to let them get married. So before he leave, they got engaged. The gal went out to the working society, whereas the guy was overseas, continuing his studies. They sent their love through emails & phone calls. Though it?s hard, but both never thought of giving up.

One day, while the gal was on her way to work, she was knocked down by a car that lost control. When she woke up, she saw her parents beside her bed. She realised that she was badly injured. Seeing her mum crying, she wanted to comfort her. But she realized that all that could come out of her mouth was just a sigh. she has lost her voice.. The doctors says that the impact that had on her brain has caused her to loss her voice. Listening to her parents? comfort, but with nothing coming out from her, she broke down.

During the stay in hospital, besides silence cry.. it?s still just silence cry that accompanied her. Upon reaching home, everything seems to be the same. Except for the ringing tone of the phone, which pierced into her heart every time it rang. She does not wish to let the guy know. & not wanting to be a burden to him, she wrote a letter to him saying that she does not wish to wait any longer. With that, she sent the ring back to him. In return, the guy sent millions & millions of reply, countless of phone calls.. all the gal could do, besides crying, is still crying?. The parents decided to move away, hoping that she could eventually forget everything & be happy.

With a new environment, the gal learn sign language & started a new life. Telling herself everyday that she must forget the guy. One day, her friend came & told her that he?s back. She asked her friend not to let him know what happened to her. Since then, there wasn?t anymore news of him.

A year has passed & her friend came with an envelope, containing a invitation card for the guy?s wedding. The gal was shattered. When she open the letter, she saw her name in it instead. When she was about to ask her friend what?s going on, she saw the guy standing in front of her. He used sign language telling her ?I?ve spent a year?s time to learn sign language. Just to let you know that I?ve not forgotten our promise. ?Let me have the chance to be your voice. I Love You.? With that, he slipped the ring back into her finger. The gal finally smiled.

My Bench days

I still remember it was 12 th December, 2007. It was already two months I ‘d been in my so called bench period. My life in those days, fantastic. I used to wake up at 9 early in the morning. Go to office by 10am sharp(right time being 7 amJ). First thing I would do is the same as many people of my kind do, hmmm open my mailbox, look for interesting mails, forward few of them to my dearest ones, used to wish my frnds thru online chat, open proxy server to access orkut, then fill my timesheets, used to pretend like doing some coding. See if my RM came. Soon my bench mates santhosh, madhav, Vijayabhaskar , … look for viswa he ll not be there. I ll call him he replies, ”Man I just woke up. I ll be there in 10 min. Do wait for me at cafeteria” Wat to sayJ ), we used to go to nearby hotel where we had our breakfast not less than half an hour. In the meanwhile we used to stare at every gal, looks not at all our concern. By that time it used to be 11 in the morning. We ll have a discussion on same repetitive topics, (like hey which project ur mapped into, wat if we ll not be selected, Did she got selected!!!, Oops how can this happen now we are left alone, wats the scenario in other domains, Will we get night shift allowance, wat abt cost of living in Bangalore, yaar for god sake do not go to ChennaiJ, anything which in unimportant, the list is big…). Then used to attend some session which will in no way be helpful. As if we have done something incredible, we go for a coffee break at roof top. That’s the last thing we do at office for the day. Back to home.



No goals, No aim in life. No tensions. Everything cool. Weekend parties. Infact everyday was a weekend. Only fun. Dreams getting bigger day by day

My Diary page - 8

My diary page -8

Journey in my project came to an end. April 1 st 2008 to Sep 11 th 2009. A journey which I could say is important, journey from which I can take with me many things, journey which made me realize where I stand, journey which made me mature in terms of handling challenging situations, journey which had both fun and embarrassing situations, journey which made me interact with people who think differently.

Me along with 2 guys, Abhi and Jeevan we had KT for 2 months. They were seniors to me. They both moved to onsite. Jeevan was OC for me, and I was operating from offshore. First marval, we got is a chumma change for which 56 objects are to be changed. Great start to the project. Objects were moved to LIVE and running without any issues. Within a month, they have integrated the entire team to a single team. This is the first time, when I have encountered this gal, Geetha, she had a considerable role in my life. She is my PL. in most of my blogs, you ll find her name. half my life for the past 18 months, revolved around her.

Few words about her. She is extremely talented. Our managers has tremendous faith in her. Even our clients, managers from their side use to assign their work to her. Once work is assigned to her, it will be delivered with perfection. She is technically so strong, we ll rarely find people of her caliber. She is very commanding. There ll be no spoon feeding kind of, with her. She is thoroughly professional, she expects people working under her, also to be the same. I can say, all these 18 months, I ve never had a friendly chat with her. She never gave me that space.

First incident I can remember is, the monthly feedback which we had in August. She was not at all happy with me. She along with other team mate, gave a class for me early in the morning. That dress which i wore on that day, believe me, I have thrown it in the dust bin. She went to such extent, she said, “if this is the case with you, I ll ask our manager for a replacement”. This scene I can say, is one of the most embarrassing situation I have ever had.

One month from then, Thanks to recession. There was a ramp down in our project. One of my onsite co ordinator, is moved back to offshore. Jeevan, was my PL since then. Oct to March.All these six months were days in heaven for me. I ve mentioned the same in one of my blog which I have written somewhere in March. There were no deadlines. He was very flexible. He complimented me for the good things which I have done. He was extremely friendly with me.

Few words about him. Jeevan is a perfect gentleman. His dressing is awesome. The way he carries himself is superb. He is so cool. I have never seen him getting angry. How many mails he ll send to the team in a day!!! His car is cool, SX4. He is a good human being.

There were no issues with him. No deadlines. Work was as smooth, as cutting a cool cake. He made work so flexible that, I have enjoyed each and every day of these six months.

God did not want me to be happy through out. One day, Jeevan informed me, he is moving out of our company. I was unhappy about that. Such a nice PL he was. Still I have to accept it.

Since then torture in my life started again. Geetha became my PL again. That day itself, I was sure some thing awkward is going to happen for sure. She harassed me in many ways. She always created a fearful environment in work. More than client, I was scared of her. My OC Abhi, he was extremely happy about my work, but this gal used to show some fault or the other.

I donno why, might be she was in a feeling that this guy is growing technically, one day he ll stop listening to my words, one day I ll lose command over him, might be she does not like me, might be she does not want me in the project, whatever might be the reason, I was sure one day I ll move out of this project. Handling this torture from Apr 2009 to Aug 2009, finally the day which I was talking about came.

We got an onsite opportunity in our team. It should be me to move to onsite. With the kind of relationship I had with this gal, I am pretty sure, this gal will not recommend me. As expected, she did not recommend me, nor did she tell me the reason why I am not moved to onsite. I was very unhappy by that time. I have decided to move out of the project. What‘s the point in working for a project where my services are not taken into account. Luckily we had a new development in our floor for the same client. I went to my manager, and asked him for release from the project. The reputation I had in the team, even it is a risk to move an already existing resource from a project, they showed enough consideration for me, I am moved to the new development project. My life under her , came to an end.

Sep 14th 2009. New project started. I am a free bird now. Its already weeks since then, we both are in the same floor. We did not have a eye contact even.

I did not clear my 2nd tech round of interview. I was unhappy but it showed me there ‘s lot there for me to improve.

Once I read this blog, I am feeling I am getting too monotonous. I am feeling like deleting this blog. But still its ok. Let it be.

I have purchased new laptop. Dell inspiron. I ve learnt how to browse information related to Laptops. Configuration, most important thing is, I have purchased it on my own. I am very happy.

This is how most of the developers think, if I am right!!!
