A little more down the line

While proselytizing these people that we are a refractory genre of people and not some philistines with a parochial view , who rather abhor programming in .net and neither we renege the fact that most software market in India will soon see a surge of .net programmers(currently its roughly around 75% C & Java and remaining being .net,perl cgi,php blah blah). Why wont they understand that we are just four inchoate and nebulous C programmers(err one of them knows some good android as well). Well, C and other OOPS(remember the S stands for Structure and not System) languages do lunge themselves in the manumission of making things from scratch.
Well i ain't no sibylline while i write this though i do bewail the fact that a company grows more because of its working strategy rather than the degrees and academic salutations held by its employees.Just felt like sharing these exoteric thoughts which most of you won't pan about.
Lets see how much i am able to sustain my repose sitting on this desk with that anodyne screen in front of me.

The Google plus Travesty

Hi all...we(the 4 trainees i mean including me) were soon transpired that my new company in noida Pyramid IT consulting Inc. stanched the flow of web pages from facebook.com domain as such behavior of using social networking is treated with a dour view by this company's network administrators, i was left with nothing more than finding some alternates to sate my social networking quench while in office...as i was able to somehow access Internet through my old 2G connection and somehow managed with the moby vista of things...anyhow the repugnance in my mind for this company exacerbated as time passed because there was no point in being plaintive about something which you cant help.
And there i found a google+ invite in my mailbox and so it made me synoptic of the view that there is a possibility of me using this only for the coming few days or months. So did i rejoinder to the specious invite in my mailbox by being a member of that mincing and dainty social networking website.Then surfaced the suggestions which were all my gmail contacts who were already members of that insurrection and of course the suggestion based on the number of mutual friends. more or less it seemed a much pontifical and furor travesty of facebook.

As i scrolled through the posts on its wall(err home), all i could see was people(rather upstarts) bantering over facebook, prognosticating google's hegemony over facebook in social networking gamut over the coming time and flaunting a hauteur of being a part of this so called google's new project and their rather sceptic friends ululating and balking over the new concept.

I superficially browsed over to discover the facts and stats of people being part of this website(some even calling it a revolution).I came to know through the prefatory browsing that the new joining to this site has been viral and at a much faster rate than what it was for facebook or for that matter any other social networking website(Twitter,LinkedIn..)

Some of the remarkable things of google+ being the translucent motility of the things that disappear or appear or either of the two at the same time(in a little gruff manner at times)
So insentient of the consequences and under the momism of a bad interface gave me a ca rte Blanche and i added up all the suggestions that came up on that.Winsome of having a wider network, i soon discovered that i have been adding even my friend's friend's friend and that added up to some 3500 people in my circles and some 900 people added me in their circles. The worst commotion being that there is no direct way of removing those whom i had added by visiting their profiles as there was no option of removing( rather i would call it ostracizing) them from your circles.The suavity of the fact that there wont be any more people in my circles soon vanished when the people in my circles went up when some of the invites that i had sent , while adding up my suggestions, were accepted.
So now it galls me whenever i open google+ and i see my home page inundated by posts from random people and i had to snub those to get to the posts that i am concerned about.
Lets see how long it will take me to get out of this welter with still 780 people remaining that have been invited by me. Quite funny it sounds to me at times.

I am here forever this way

Remember the day we met, the sky was dusky
You seemed svelte and i smelled musky
You came closer and i felt a spate of sunlight
And i wondered - Is this what they call love at first sight?
I was nervous and you were shy
even my feelings went on the sly
Give me a chance so that i can say
i am here forever this way

Remember the times we used to fight
and i had to concede each time in the plight
not coz you were right or i was right
but coz i wanted you to be alright
and then you used to smile
and my world resumed to be guile
waiting for this grim night to slay
i am here forever this way

Come back to me i am waiting
soaked in tears i am standing
tired of again sketching us together
please come and be mine forever
nowhere will you find such madness
such love , such reverence , such contentedness
you be my princess, on knees i shall lay
i am here forever this way

Lets go get lost somewhere

 
Can you see the fear in my eyes?The ruddy color and the mute cries
Don’t go love, don’t go from here
Wherever you go, you will find me there
Let there be just ‘us’ anywhere
Lets go get lost somewhere

We are just two lost souls
Living in two fish bowls
Don’t test my patience dear
You aren’t wary of my fear
Don’t seek elsewhere , the things we share
Lets go get lost somewhere

Go away and you will stoke that fire
our solemn wish and our desire
give me all my celestial charms
hold my hands, come in my arms
Dive into my eyes and find yourself there
Lets go get lost somewhere

Too early to wake up from this dream

 
See the mauve skies beside that moonAnd those stars about to appear real soon
Do you think we could be like those?
Or may be like a pair of plume rose
Who never separate as they may seem
Too early to wake up from this dream

Like a rare jewel they shine,
Your hands clutched into mine
You are sitting close, I can hear you breathe
Your fragrance like million jasmines in a wreath
may the clocks stop and be off beam
Too early to wake up from this dream

Your touch drives me into a euphoria
into an asylum with an irrevocable phobia
lets stay like this for the rest of our life
I be your dodo and only love remains rife
you be the cherry, I am the unadorned cream
Too early to wake up from this dream

Welcome to Noida

With all my bags packed and quite a feckless determination, i boarded the bus early in the morning to noida. It trotted over to gurgaon in 4 hours and i entered the lofty and ostentatious Delhi NCR. Further it took 2 hours for the bus to cover just 50 kms to drop me to ISBT, Kashmiri gate. I rummaged for the metro station and my friend 'thapa' picked me up from noida's metro station.We came to another friend PG and met my would be roommates for a month then, Shivam and Dewang.
They had their exams going on those days, even they had one the following day.still they were kind enough to introduce me to the ambience around and even made an adhoc arrangement for a bed for me.
The surroundings were good enough(in fact very good) with a huge park against our PG and many eateries beside some call centers where most kinds of food could be savoured at reasonable prices, quite a rapture for a gourmet like me.
The specious nature of noida hawkers was quite evident when he reckoned our bill to be 120 when it actually was 90 and then dewang blurted the sententious thespian comment 'Welcome to noida'.
I joined Siemens for my 1 month internship the following day. Though it being a networking company, I could somehow find some work regarding networks and all(though the interest as well as my attendance diminished as days passed). Well anyways, that part is none of my concern in this post.
Ya so the following Sunday, me with some other friends went out to see GIP(Great India Place).
Though i had been here before also(like one year back).

Some other strange things to be found over in the following days were the prevailing homosexuality here. One day the warden of that PG came to meet my both roommates and while he talked it gave me a whiff about he being an effeminate or something much more wrong with him. The pith of his behaviour was sloughed to me by dewang when while having a bawdy discussion that the warden was a gay. He told me stories regarding how he had encountered him in uncompromising situations with other men and also somehow even more close encounters with the college students in the PG hostel. I was quite flabbergasted when i heard that. I mean there was no such turpitude of girls around(like the case in BITS where there are just males and non-males) and even that warden was married and had two children even.but the thing was that he stayed alone in the hostel with a different and much more embellished room than others.and his insouciance towards his family may be attributed to his disinterest towards being in a family.
Though i never pilloried any form of homosexuality before and considered it rather pithy...may be coz i couldn't understand the perverse effects it could have on plebeian communities.
But that one month reprieve in Noida(now my makeshift residence being my new company's guest house in Jaipuria Greens,Ghaziabad) , rather a subtler and not seemly aspect of what is going on in these more developed parts of Northern India(particularly in New Okhla Industrial Development Authority..NOIDA )
Will continue sharing my experiences...stay tuned..and keep visiting..!

You are my sunshine, You are my rain



you are my sunshine, you are my rain
in the highest skies
in the fathomless abyss
in the dampest rains
in the vividest grains
you are my sunshine, you are my rain

you are the one who scares me
for the one my mind flairs me
you are the one who is too far
and also the one who is the closest bizzare
you are my sunshine, you are my rain

you are my prettiest imagination
you are my truest inspiration
i see you in the sea,in the stars
as well as in the roses having scars
you are my sunshine, you are my rain

make me a promise that you wont go
make a promise you wont let me go
make a promise that you will stay
in the livid and the fire, you shall not go away
you are my sunshine, you are my rain
