Aura Ammaka Chella

In a time when all hits in Telugu were from Ilayaraja, there came a refreshing original Telugu Music composer, a change called Keeravani, so we didn't have to live with the routine beats of Raj-Koti. Here is one of my all time favourites from this guy - Its a folklore-type song about Lord Krishna and is a melodious piece. I love this song. The movie is a master-piece from K. Viswanath called "Aapathbandhavudu". It also holds a special place for me, because part of the movie was shot in Ann's.

Touch all the wood

For CSCO stock. Its making me happier by the day ;) I wish I had bought some shares in the Employee stock purchase program way earlier except for the fact that back then I was broke;)

Now is the time to work a little harder and keep pushing it up, I am inspired to do quality work today;)

Way to go!

Hyderabad and the babus

I refrained from writing anything about the bomb blasts in Hyderabad a couple weeks back. I didn't think I would do it any justice. It was a terrible thing for us looking at our city being ripped like that. I hope whoever did it burns in hell.

Today was a fly-over collapse. Almost the same number of people dead. And this fly-over is not even built yet! Some of the gang were over at our place and we were discussing it. One of them was wondering how a yet-to-be-built bridge can collapse. The answer to me, is simple. A thing like that is a very obvious manifestation of corruption. I try not to get too political on my blog, but I will make this one exception. This was a terrible completely avoidable mishap. If only people acted a little more responsibly. But I guess money is heady and people are ready to do or forsake anything for it. Reminds me of a Telugu movie called Tagore, where they show how the lead actor turns against corruption because his family is killed when his apartment building collapses.

I hope this is the worst my city will ever see..

Of good grace..

I got my phone back!! Now I don't have to worry about all those numbers. Thanks to my brilliant guy, he not only reminded me that I might have left it in the laundry room but also suggested we put a note there, asking anyone who found it to call him. A couple days after we left the note, on Friday, a lady called from our opposite building and said she had found it. We went over and picked it up and boy was I happy :) I didn't realize how much depended on my having a mobile up until I lost it. So hopefully I will be a little more careful with it now on;)

More "What's up"

Uhh..same story.

If I thought last week was crazy this week was craziest in my life. Working from 11 pm to 5 am..the less said about it, the better ;)

So I grossly am neglecting my other routines. I am constantly being pre-occupied, so much so, that I lost my cell phone this week. Now I know what life can be without it...I never valued it much when I had it, but now I know.

Till my new phone comes I am clueless about who is trying to reach me. And then that phone book, ohh, I think I had about 200 numbers in there :( How am I going to revive them all, gaaaaa!!

Nothing else happening. Except that we had a great weekend getaway to Bass Lake with the gang. For the first time every family could make it but 1. We had around 21 adults and two kids/infants and it was tremendous fun. Just the sheer number of people guaranteed it. Was really glad to have such a close-knit gang to hang out with:)

Planning on hogging Pani Puris at home this weekend..lets see how that comes about..
