Its been a long time since I have written here. much longer it has been since I have written something sensible on a paper - except for scribbling some algo on my pad - if you call that sensible. A couple of weeks back - inspired by my sweet wife (if you know me personally - you wouldnt agree on that word as yet - but what the heck - we consider us married :-) ) i took to writing my diary - every day. its childishly innocent and nice. Helps me get some sense on my mind about what I am and should be doing.
Much has changed since my last post here. I moved to Bangalore - found myself amongst a nightmare of a team - only relief that its a big big organization , it has huge presence on net and has infrastructure + develops software processing petabytes of data. Being in Bangalore also means that I am closer to my girl , and can go to meet her without burning a hole in my pocket. I do miss hyd a lot , the late night drives I used to go on , eating at banne nawabs , and real good time spent with super good friends there.
I also realised that apart from programming I do have a passion for driving. So much that - given my road trips - an old friend commented that I might have been a highway driver in my previous birth :-). Did some really long drives - from Hyderabad to Trivandrum , and a couple of times from Bangalore to Alleppey. And numerous times between Hyderabad and Bangalore. Its an addiction now - the thought of going on a road trip makes me excited and I love every bit of it. I have crossed through four states , 1500 km in about 22 hours once.
Its International Women's day today - was watching a video a friend shared on facebook titled 'If You Are Looking Only For Out Ward Appearances ... You Will Miss The Value of True Love '. There is another one thats good - http://www.youtube.com/watch?
While on this topic - I am reminded of two people who influenced me most, apart from my own family - those who were unrelated to me but always have inspired me. I wish I could wish them today and let them know how I feel about them, but will let that wish go - 'maslehat cheen gayi quwwat-e-guftar' :-)
ek bas tu hi nahin mujh se khafa ho baitha,
maine jo sang tarasha wo khuda ho baitha.
