I tried observing my thought process on my way home in an auto. 1…2…3..here we go into my world of thoughts….

Location:My office premises
· Should I take a share auto or hire one directly to home…guess I’d take a dedicated one so that I can reach home soon.
· God! I am feeling hungry…shall have a nice cup of coffee (Filter Coffee….hmmmm)

Location: Infront of the office building, waiting for an auto
· Why cant these auto walas come for a metered charge instead of demanding such huge price…..sky is the limit for their demands.
· How long should I wait…wish Satya recovered soon…
· What kinda dependency is this..when am I going to buy my bike…I better get one fast.

Location: In the auto
· Good! This guy has taken the right route instead of the round about.
· Hey! That’s a nice kurta the gal (some stranger) looks v cute..
· Shopping…hope I make it this weekend..Must take mom in law along.
· Oh God!the traffic is jammed even in this route…man its 5:30 p.m. after all and still it had to be packed tight.
· Hey ..i can see the stream of vehicles moving synchronously
· Wish I could capture this scene of disciplined vehicles…heheh

Location: Madhapur Main Road
· When will Police relieve us from these pestering Hijdaas
· They started being very abusive…must write to Deccan about this..Hope some action is taken.
· Good! The signal cleared …no more stoppages ahead…
· Yummy…want to have those pieces of guava(with Salt&chilli powder)…am doubtful on my throat..anywys..let me not stop anywhere

Location: Jubilee Hills
· Aaah! Nice set of curtains for sale..should soon buy a few…will take Mom in law and get this done on Sunday
· Arrey! This is a new store…when have they opened..Looks like it has good collection of t-shirts..must bring satya sometime
· Anna! Mundu left teesukondi(Brother, please take the left direction)…mean fellow..he is growling…common now, I have every right to instruct the route.
· Road widening is good initiative but what about the residents, they are gonna get wild with the amount of traffic that’s going to flow from now onwards.
· Man! This person is driving very rash…he over taking every vehicle.
· That’s a cute scene.a Mom carrying her young one’s school bag and lunch pack..and he is reluctant to back home…may be he wants to play more…
· Golden School days…no sense of responsibilities at all!!
· Must call praneetha and neelima (My schoolmates) sometime.

Location: Indranagar - Yousufguda
· Want a cup of coffee..my head is aching badly..why cant they run mobile coffee shops.
· Running a mobile coffee shop may not be great business idea since it doesn’t serve the purpose of privacy for young couples.
· Should I offer a lift ride to those school goers looking for some lift…not sure if they are reliable..but they look v innocent..let me try
· Good going till now…these kids are quite entertaining.


Location: Sriram nagar
· Must visit an ENT..my cold seems to a continuous affair.
· God! These shared auto guys..they jes dump people madly and play such loud and heavy music.
· Thank God! Am home by 6:00

And I rush to kitchen, switch on my radio and make the coffee.



On my way home in an auto, I happen to offer a lift ride to two kids. Here’s a hilarious & innocent conversation I had with them. These guys are obsessive about Chiranjeevi.

Disclaimer: I haven’t written this to promote the movie…am surprised at their sincere madness right at their school age.

TAKE A BREAK!!!


Hmmmmm…the list has just started!!!


I know the title simulates Koffee with Karan,..indeed we’ve actually been to a Coffee shop but dint want to have one. On the flipside, we’ve enjoyed the delicious Sandwiches, Muffins and Tarts.

Okay…Now this is getting a little out of context..here’s the intro about this small outing by our GOG(Gang of Gals). We are five of us for now including Vidya, Sangeetha, Meenakshi, Srilakshmi and myself. We work together in the same team while Sri happens to leave for another firm. So made it a reason for all of us to meet, gossip about everything under sun and treat ourselves.

After several chat sessions and mails we’ve decided the date, time and venue to be a Thursday, 5:00 pm either at Shilparamam or Barista. But predicting the unpredictable….the Hyd weather we opted to stay sheltered and headed for Barista. We, four of us got out of office at 5:20pm or so and tried looking for an auto. An auto-wala demanded 35 bucks and we resisted to pay so much. Vidya tried a hand on her bargaining skills and finally convinced him for meter charge with an extra 5 rupee on the amount. Ironically, the meter turned out to 29.80 and we had to pay him 35 with out any choice….We all squeezed ourselves in it and never felt the pain since all of us were so engrossed in numerous topics starting from Hi-tech city surroundings to Vidya’s bird watching trip to Bull’s attack to 2 wheeler driving to Vaideeswaran Kovel and so on…Thankfully, there wasn’t much traffic so in no time we reached the place. The coffee shop looked cozy enough to comfort us. We went straight to the “Seats of Demand” where the cushioned sofas were put up. After a 10 min wait, Sri arrived in her bindaas look. She looked smart in her new hairstyle.


We’ve started updating her one by one on all the happenings, Whoz the next Manager? Whoz next in row for resignation? Whoz flirting with whom? Whoz getting married and whose heart is broken? Whoz looking for a change?

There is one funny lady in our team who is looking out in the same company where Sri is currently employed. Apparently, our gang tries to stay a little away from her. Hence had good time pulling Sri’s leg about “Where ever Sri goes, network follows”.

Once we were done with the major current affairs…we’ve placed an order…unfortunately, it is self-service outlet which was quite boring for us. We chose, a Texas-potato sandwich, a paneer-veg sandwich, a blueberry muffin, a walnut muffin and 2 chocolate tarts. The locale was not as pleasant as expected. We had an additional activity to keep away the flies around and a couple of dead ones were lying on the floor….we wondered on the maintenance. We started to feast ourselves beginning with the sandwiches and Vidya initiated slicing them into 2 halves. So recognizing her competency to cut, we’ve rewarded her with a new title” Cutter”. Lolzzz….

I was the only odd man….oops..woman out not to touch anything except the texas potato. That’s because of my health reasons, but yeah I did taste a bit of everything since I dint want to disappoint my taste buds as well my buddies.

Soon we were able to finish all of them and ordered 2 more Paneer Veg sandwiches. I was first one to leave the place since I had some house hold work and Satya was on his way to pick me up. It was 6:20 pm by the time I left the premises. The other four dispersed at 7:00 pm with heavy tummies…hehehe.

It’s a feel good factor to meet up once in a while and energize ourselves. In other words, a change in routine always keeps the mind& heart fit!


You Sang to me – Marc Anthony


I happen to hear this one of the well written songs and felt so high.
This has been wonderfully sung my Marc Anthony in his husky and romantic voice. He sounded so soothing to ears that I kept on listening to this song again and again. The lyrics, "All the while.." resembles most of our real life instances..that we never realize and dont see that tinge in the other person's eyes at that moment. But thankfully...after a long while, i had a chance to see it in my hubby's jet black eyes...oh what a feeling :)

You can aswell watch the video at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PUgx5Q2NNpY

i just wanted you to comfort me
when I called you late last night you see
i was fallin' into love
oh yes, i was crashin' into love
oh of all the words you sang to me
about life, the truth and bein' free yea
you sang to me, oh how you sang to me

girl i live off how you make me feel
so i question all this bein' real
cuz i'm not afraid to love
for the first time i'm not afraid of love

oh, this day seems made for you and me
and you showed me what life needs to be
yea you sang to me, oh you sang to me

all the while you were in front of me i never realized
i jus' can't believe i didn't see it in your eyes
i didn't see it, i can't believe it
oh but i feel it
when you sing to me
how i long to hear you sing beneath the clear blue skies
and i promise you this time i'll see it in your eyes
i didn't see it, i can't believe it
oh but i feel it
when u sing to me

just to think you live inside of me
i had no idea how this could be
now i'm crazy for your love
can't believe i'm crazy for your love
the words you said you sang to me
and you showed me where i wanna be
yea you sang to me, oh you sang to me





Blogging…a fantasy come true…a long lasting wish which I could accommodate in one of my leisure hours at my workplace ….oopss..this is better known as a self improvement time..!!

I love my job..profession..career…lifeline…I like writing..never knew when this instinct to write has germinated…my education may possibly be one of the reasons behind…the weekly exams, the never ending reading and learning saga, the brain storming sessions for the projects…must have laid the foundation.

Many commented, many discouraged, many degraded…the only entity that were in my complete support of all my decisions is my family(Amma& Gopal-My Brother)

Well…Bi.p.c to BCA to HR never stopped me pursue my interest…my Dad gave me the liberty to study what ever I wanted…I not only enjoyed the education, while also experienced their flavors in my varied jobs…starting the first one at the age of 18…finally chose my destination to be writing that suits my persona.

I can co-relate how my 3 tier edu came handy in my ever chosen job…Writing.
My role involves reading, interviewing, analyzing and documenting. Now lets see the co-relation I was talking about….Bi.p.c taught me to read extensively, BCA introduced me to technology while HR triggered my levels of interaction.

I have been in this field since 2 years for now. Starting with SEO Writing, Website content writing, marketing materials, brochures, editing…you name it and I learn it.
The only idea I always had…research…learn… Google is my God Father ..lolz..Nothing in this world is impossible on Google.. Life is made so easy with these search engines.

More about my jobs…Switching from an e-learning firm to a financial client to a s/w product development firm…it has been a strange and versatile journey…planning to enjoy this technological aura for a while…may be 2 years from now…! There has been a cultural transition…but my Aquarian instinct to adopt and welcome change helped me survive and fit in any kind of setup.

My current organization is a medium sized firm with a head count of 250…with high attrition rate and equal intake balancing the ratio..:D. Soon after I’ve joined the firm, my senior has left the firm and I began owning a component. it has been tough to get acquainted with terminology and technology…but thanks to my PM…he is v supportive and understanding of my learning needs. He would patiently answer any of my silly or serious questions with an unfading smile…a must learn factor!

The team is other wise known as a gang of serious (Workaholic) guys…with just 2 females(including me). Both of us are mostly lost in our world of thoughts…husband, boy friend, marriage, home, Mom, shopping, movies, humor, forwards, bitching…heheh!
We have drawn a line to all the guys since they are always engrossed in work…defects, PY, enhancement, revision, DT, meetings, scrum, sprint….this makes the dictionary of my team…..to be contd…
