About the first novel I read completely - Neon Nagaram

What now? I read a novel completely for the first time in my life. Its actually a musical novel, a hi-fi novel by Paadhai . Awesome experience, took me to a colorful world. How did I end up here @ Neon City? One of my classmates belongs to Paadhai. (She must be proud to be a part of it) She use to tell/promote about Paadhai for a year now, I think. A few days back, she asked me to buy the book. I agreed right away coz I had already enjoyed seeing a video about Neon Nagaram in youtube, which had the theme (more like a trailer, sorry if I'm wrong) Started reading.. First two pages @ Singanallur bus stand while waiting for my brother. [In mind - okay.. nice to read] Next while on the way to college.. stopped at page 24.. [In mind - interesting :) ] Continued reading while travelling - stops at 64 then at 193 Its friday eve.. As per the routine, decided to read further next monday while travelling.. But couldn't wait.. Started again on saturday a little later after sunse...

Small rewind #1.. Trying to recollect past 7 months' stuffs..

Oh its May 9th.. An event reminder in my phone says - "Welcome to the world of online retailing" :) Got up.. Got ready.. Had b'fast with Pranoy.. Climbed into the cab that was sent for us.. So who are all in? Shruti Pranoy Srinath Myself We headed towards K. Raheja Mindspace, India's largest IT park.. Those three guys were from same college, PSG Tech. They were talking about their friends and something else. Actually it looked like 'peter' for me. But I didn't get a clue about who the hell was the audience. Is it driver or me? Leave it. Shruti asked me something in the official language. I replied something in Tamil. Decided - "Shouldn't talk to these guys when they are together, coz they do this 'peter' thing". Oh yeah :) Welcome to the mindspace ;) 'I'm here' What a feel :) Then reached office building, signed in some register at the gate and headed in. New character intro - Krithiga, another PSG to join them. ...

Little drops make mighty ocean.. But please stop right there, dont play over human-captured surface of earth.. - Message to the God of Water

"Rain Rain go away.. Come again on another day" Actual line in between the above two is - *Little Johnny wants to play* (if I remember correct). But now, people would say *Little Johnny wants to live * You might say - "Hmm too too much.. Shut your mokkais and say what you try to say" I can guess this.. Let me say.. It was November 6th, 2011. I was at my home @ Therkkupalayam, Palladam. Rain started by approximately 4 p.m. in the eve. It kept on raining till I went to bed. Heard some voice, it was my younger brother. He tried woking me up. He said the channel, right next to our house, got flooded. Then like 5 mins later he said the same. Actually its not 5 minutes. First time it was 3 a.m. and next time around 7a.m. Okay so what happened?? I got up, walked slowly and reached bathroom. Took my brush, equipped it with the semi-solid that has been provided by Colgate and started creating foam in my mouth, spitting at intervals. Heard like a roaring sound...

Who cares?

Why now? I have nothing interesting to share with. Let me throw some random snippets from my secondary memory.. 1) That dream I had - I usually talk more about the dreams that I use to have. This dream which I'm about to talk about is a bit confusing, for me (may be for you too). So what happened? How it began? No sunlight, its not dark either. Almost like a few mins before raining. (It never rained) I was walking on a railway track. Having some rod in my hand which is half wood and half iron. Someone near me talking about what Mechanical Engineering is all about. He looked like my hostel mate (1st year 6 months - hostel life). We were on our way to work in a farm, which is owned by K.S Ravi Kumar. I know that before I reach there. Don't know how. That's the beauty of dream world. (You can even make a nuclear weapon in less than a second and blast it like diwali crackers) So we were instructed to pick some vegetable which can be found all over the field. Its almost 30...

New look and feel.. Also about - Digital world thinks..

I'm not advertising.. This new look and feel for blog is amazing.. 1000 likes :) Okay lets get back to business. Whenever I come to post, I'm coming with a story. Whats up now???? Hmm.. what ppl might feel if I say movies talk to you? I know that majority agrees. But what'll their reaction if I say, you are not always deciding to watch movies, sometimes movies decide that you have to watch em. So what am I trying to say? Don't worry, I'm not going to say that movies are intelligent(I mean the ability of taking decisions via learning). If I say so.... forget it, I wont say that. So what them hell I'm trying to state now? Nothing. Cool down. I'm gonna share a story, short story here, now and that's it. My mobile - Samsung Guru (white). Has three games in it viz Carom, Cricket and Sudoku. Cricket, which I use to play whenever I get time. is not so complicated. The only match we'll be playing is a match against Pakistan. 5/10 overs based on your...

Met someone like Mrs. A. Ruckmani .... Not only power but also position makes you responsible ....

Title - "Not only power but also position makes you responsible" This might sound crazy to most of the ppl. But if you are a student this is something new. Now, what is a student's potential ? To be clear, what do you mean by potential when you are talking about a student? According to me, answer depends on the level of the student. By level, I'm referring to one's class of study. Kinder garden - Ability to take in stuff and reproduce it. One level up (1st to Fifth) - Ability to understand stuff and produce some defined outcomes. One level up (6th to Twelfth) - Ability to understand stuff and produce expected outcomes. (As domain grows, reproduction is not the criteria, expectation is born here) One level up (Under graduate) - Ability to understand more than presented stuff, ability to adapt, identify what is expected and produce that. One level up(Post graduate and whatever) - Ability to manage time, understand oneself, identify what has to be done and d...

A fine thursday

Hi :) Today, I woke up so early. Arvind left to office when I got up. ( His wake up time - 10 a.m) I came to hall, switched on the lap and added a pickup request (1: 45). Took my phone and had a look at my logs. Shocked!! No call from cab driver. I planned to sleep for a little while and get ready then. **** Cab driver called. Asked him to wait for 20 mins. It was 10:40 at that time. Brushed, shaved and got ready by 11:30. Came down and the cab is not there. I gave him the directions:  - Take left of signal  - Take 4th left  - Take 1st right. 1st house He took 4th left after signal and went somewhere. Then I went to Reliance fresh and told him to come there. Somehow came to office by 12 o clock. Then, :) breakfast.. New desk no alloted :) Mokka location.. It was 1:30 I think..
