the story so far.. britto

alrite.. my first entry in this blog.. our own blog.. super concept by chathan.. all his reservedness is gone in the bloggin world.. he's comin out n speakin his mind out..
talkin abt my story.. i landed in chennai on 14th mornin.. sat.. read on..
we first got a single bedroom lodge room thanks to lankan help.. we reached on sat morn btw.. by sunday evenin we found a nice place..
2 bdroom hall kitchen 2 bathroom wrk area n backward balcony.. plus tv fridge washin machine 2 lpg stove.. all kitchen utensils includin puttu maker n ammi plus a double cot plus beds for 5 plenty of pillows.. tv stand dinin table two comp tables.. two almirahs.. buckets.. n many other.. mixie was one thin missin.. n iron box too.. we bot the latter..
rent 15k plus current bill.. 24/7 water... only prob that i can see is tat it can get hot.. in summer..
we're stayin in a big middle n upper mid class colony.. we have a private beach half km from us.. (naren said it was private).. as we move closer to beach the class moves from midd to upmid...
ya.. there's a hyundai colony near by.. so lot of chinkies.. the beach.. lol.. its a neat place.. no shittings in the 1km length.. families here come even at 10 pm... we (me lanka basil) went for mornin walk today mornin..(yeah we do it evryday).. n we walked all along the beach.. the two boundaries are visible.. thanks to the shitters.. those guys shit n wait for the waves to clean thier ____.. call it hands free comfort..

we spotted a buildin which seemed like a.. b a r.. but on closer examination i found out sadly that it was not a wine glass but a brewin cup of tea shown on the logo...

ya.. work place.. its 20sec plus 4 min share auto plus 5 min walk to our office.... share auto is a great concept.. upto ten plus driver can travel in one.. each has to giv 5 or 7 bucks.. the other autos u cant get into.. thier strtin price is 40 or 50.. no wonder rajni became a superstar.. if he was in kerala he'll still be a driver..

work place is good.. the same nitc feel.. thanks to the ratio.. at present all the eleven freshers r from NITs n r boys.. finally after a week we confirmed tat we are into the networkin division.. called NGDC meanin Next Generation Datacom Center.. sounds good? havn found out wat it is.. but i think its somethin related to networkin.. As of now.. its one week since we joined.. n we're trained to type n browse n chat.. because.. they are plannin to increase the batch strength to 25 (hopefully better ratio).. by the look of it.. i think our trainin wil start only in july first week.. it also means i hav enuff time to learn somethin abt networkin.. hopefully..

our division head.. a lil old guy. he was in RnD in US for 18 yrs.. now here.. malayalee.. big funda guy.. like KSK.. though a lil more humane.. (dunno wat exactly that means.. i meant lil more frenly).. he is calin us each seperatly n interviewin us.. abt.. u din guess it.. our mini n majr project.. after coll.. i threw away thos reports n deleted it too i think.. now i find the mini report is in ammavan's comp.. which is in mumbai.. n major.. in vv's but his fren lost the usb.. n no net ther... fun.. the big brain he is.. vv he still remembers a lot abt it. n helped me.. i hav somethin to tell the head wen i meet him..

food.. we hav cheap but good canteen in our office as wel as in our buildin.. this is an IT park btw.. we hav two other good IT parks... Tidel (behind us) n ascendas ( in btw our place n NIFT which is .5km away) ascendas is our CC (first c bein chic) these two places hav superb food courts.. tho costly.. all KFC, pizza hut mcdonalds.. n lot more in ther.. weekends. nice place to hang out..

we did go to spencers last week.. lil far from here. 7rs bus.. we hav MRTS train from our office to main railway station.. btw.. we also hear tat we are shifting to our own spacious building in a month or two.. sounds good.. its two stations away from our present place .. some 5 6 km.. or so.. but the not so good part is that we hear its near a waste dumpin place.. velachery.. will find it out soon..

btw.. in our home.. we did the paalukatchal in our kitchen... not the warrier type.. the traditional.. we made coffee on monday nite.. n more coffees... havn progressed beyond that.. i realise that cookin can be fun.. but the cleanin part afterwards is not.. really.. hmm thats abt it i guess.. wud lov to hear from u guys too.. KIT (wow.. new invention.. means Keep In Touch.. lol)
