Yayana reunited or should I say Yayanaa reunited. Nulkar's in town after almost 3 years. Yayanaa met last weekend and did a hike to Sinhagad. I regret not having been able to make it...
Life is SSDD right now. Same Shit Different Day. And i am dead bored of the same routine...
I need a relaxing change. Hope this weekend has better in store...
cling on man cling on....

Montag : Drei und Zwanzig Januar
Met up khindi and dhaniya last week. khindi after a long time. Had a good chat about what we have been doing for the last 3 years. He's left his old company and joined a anti-virus company. (Now don't mind me sayin that khindi ... ;-)). Talked about me being engaged and all that, about dhaniya's endeavours in kpp (Kanda Pohe Program). Talked about nk and nulkar (aka goti aka dada nulkar).
Khindi told me to go read his blog, so I did. Now he says if i don't answer those stupid
questions in the name of being a good sport, yamaha will be called ahamay and we all will have to be men in black next year.
So here it goes...
Four Jobs I've Had (I still have some of them)
1) code monkey
2) test monkey (thankfully a brief stint at that...)
3) chauffeur. (ya ya I am the chosen one to drive the car in the stupid traffic in Pune).
4) Just had lunch, blood supply to my brain is at its lowest now, so buzz off. I can't remember...
Four Movies To Watch Repeatedly
Actually there are many... I list some 4 here...
1) Andaz Apna Apna
2) GolMaal
3) Ace Ventura : When Nature Calls. Shikaka...
4) Matrix
Four Cities of Residence (And I thank my dad for being in the Reserve Bank)

2. Thane, India

Four Favorite TV Shows

Four Vacation Destinations:
1) Home sweet Home ("sleep"."eat food that aii makes")+
2) A warm cottage in the rain (fireplace.(vodka)+.music) ;-) and the fragrance of wet soil outside.
3) A season ticket to Six Flags, Springfield MA. Ride the superman till you start feeling dizzy.
4) Dune bashing in Dubai.
Did you see regular expressions up there? Please don't get bothered. It's just the code monkey in me trying to snatch control. It happens. It will happen to you too...

Well, these are my likes for now, but time changes everything. Dunno what i'll be writing if I answer the same set of question after a couple of years.
On the subject of yams...
Check out fjr 1300A. (http://www.yamaha-motor.com/sport/products/modelimage/180/1/0/image.aspx).

You can cruise or you can kick some serious butt with it.

Jan is here
Hmmm long time since I wrote. Last couple of weeks were hectic.
Shraddha was here for new year. Had a good time at Manas. The DJ was not that great. Neither was the food. But had a good time... Would have been a better thing to go to Jazz by the Bay. Saw Bluff Master. Good one by Abhishek. I am not a big fan of his though.
So new year is here. Resolutions and all. I am gonna be watching my weight all of 06. Have to go down 5-6 kgs still... Going to be damn tough. Especially with all the 'kelvans' (A typical custom in Maharashtrian tradition. When you get engaged, folks and relatives give you a lunch/dinner treat. Now you know what I mean ;-)) I am attending lately. I attended one at my sister's place on the 25th last month. They had 5 types of sweets (called 'panchapakvaan'). phew ! and the persuasion... Telling me that I lost weight. I mean I have to :-)
Dada Nulkar's going to be in town next weekend. Should be good fun. Hope Yogesh can make it to Pune some time. Haven't got a chance to unwind with friends for a long time. Did that last in earlier this year. Went to H'bad to Yogesh for the weekend. It was good fun. H'bad has changed a lot though. Pretty different from what I saw as a child going to primary school. Buddha's back in the middle of tank bund. Great statue. There's this new food court along the banks of tank bund. Great place to spend the evening in the cool breeze. Saw H'bad central. Huge Mall. Pune's got one of those now. It's called Pune central.
Took part in a programming contest on thurday. 2 more partners: Aniket and Samir. 5 problems in 2.45 minutes approx. Took the first prize. Expecting to get a prize from Mr. CEO himself. Should be a good thing to write on the resume...
