BROKER EXPERIENCE

Let me go straight to the topic. We were in search of a house to stay in Bangalore. Me, Ninad, Kameshwar and Phani planned to stay together. The worst part is that everyone in the group are lazy buggers including me. Me and Ninad start working only when the asses are set on fire, Kameshwar is the most indifferent person I've ever seen. He used give this vague and the most indifferent answer one can give "Anything is ok for me", whenever we looked a particular house and called him to ask his opinion. Kameshwar starts to work only after the burning sensation in the ass crosses a tolerance limit. Phani gives his answer which is always implicit through his expression and some weird sounds to accompany it. He to sails in the same boat with me and Ninad when it comes to laziness, may be slightly better than we both. I think this much of introduction is enough. Now, comes the herculean task of searching a house in Bangalore.

It was me and Ninad, who used to go in search for houses. We contacted some 2 to 3 brokers nearby Ejjipura. Each and every day, for about a week, the brokers called us up and said, there is a very good house and you can have a look at it. Since both of us dont have time restrictions, for one week, we used to go to office by 11 or sometimes 12 too. 12 means almost lunch time!!!! We did'nt get even a single house which appealed to us other than one eerie place(the moniker we kept for a house on the terrace of an apartment). The information about the eerie place was told by Vaiwasvatha, and we had given the token advance(of 500 Rs) too. But then, 9K for that single large hall was not that much worth, and everyone raised some issues regarding the difficulty to stay there alone during night times. The place was like that(top of the terrace with no lights around). We ditched that place, and looked around for many houses nearby. Finally, a broker from the City Real Estate showed us a 3 bedroom independent house which appeared to be very nominal, and we thought of striking that deal. We saw that house and asked both Kameshwar and Phani to see the house by evening and pay the token advance. It was some Saturday, we saw this house. Since all was decided, me and Ninad left the place and planned to come back to Mysore. On the way to his PG, in the bike, Ninad showed NGV and said lets go one round inside and come back. I thought it was simply a waste of time and my mind was all set to reach Mysore as soon as possible, otherwise it would'nt be worth going. Somehow he convinced and took me inside. The campus was awesome and we just stopped inside somewhere before exiting. Then, came the turnaround for the story. Ninad saw a beautiful chick and of course, sitting behind a guy. You cant spot beautiful chicks alone in Bangalore. Newtons third law " For every beautiful chick in Bangalore, there will always be an opposite reaction, from a guy on the phone or from a guy going in tandem on the roam", holds valid. After seeing that chick, Ninad said "It would be awesome to stay here in this campus". We thought of just enquiring someone on the availability of the houses and the rates(mainly). We were going slowly inside NGV and spotted someone with a glass, who appeared descent, from the persona. You have to tell whether our guess about that person was correct after reading the entire story. One entire post needs to be dedicated to explain about our experiences with that guy(definitely an odyssey).

A WEIRD INCIDENT-MENTALITY OF EDUCATED YOUTH

It was a treat from 2 of my friends, Athreya and Raghavan, at the Green Leaf hotel, which is one of the famous hotels here in Mysore. Athreya, for his birthday and Raghavan, for getting placed in Wipro-VLSI. We were 10 of us, who had gathered there we waited for 15 to 20 minutes outside, since there was no place to sit, because of a huge crowd, as it was a Sunday. We ensconced, and each one of us ready for a banquet, by 8-30 p.m.. The hors-douevre, entree and the desserts were everything exemplary, not to be surprised as I have already stated of the hotel. The other 8 of us, were least bothered about the bill, since it was a treat. Athreya and Raghavan payed the bill and we all came out bantering each other. It was that time, this weird incident happened. I had parked my bike, just behind the hotel. There is a coffee day, on top of the hotel, and a passage way from the delicatessein directly to the road. I took my bike, and was about to start. Packy, who had come with me j

VALEDICTORY OF A FAREWELL

One always realizes the importance of something when he loses or misses it. As many of our friends who were placed in ibm-gbs, had already got their joining dates, they needed to depart from us very soon. On the 17th june, one of my friend KD had to join IBM in bangalore after he had traveled from Chennai to Kolkota, Kolkota to IBM-ISL(USA) and then back to Bangalore. I need to write a new post and will soon do it about the rationale behind the journey and indeed it was an odyssey. For the time being, let me come back to the night of 15th june. As one of my friends, Anantha had met with an unfortunate accident, me, KD, PJ, Shreyas and Shravan had gone to see him in his uncle's place. After coming out of his house, for the first time in his engineering life probably KD voluntarily offered to give us a treat as a farewell. Another most shocking scene that confronted us was PJ had got some money in his pocket and he agreed to share treat with KD. We called Venki and Taki to

JOURNEY FROM CHENNAI TO BANGALORE VIA KOLKOTA AND USA

It was the last day for one of the my friends Kishore(KD) to stay in Mysore. He thought that by the time he comes back to Mysore again, may be just a few weeks later, most of them would have separated and would have gone on their duties. Kishore had been posted to Chennai and was intimated to join the IBM group on the 17th of june. Let me slightly move to the history of the offer letter. I dont remember the exact date when he was intimated about this. But, as far as I remember, it was during the last week of May, i.e the time when the VTU exams were on the run. He was a little pissed off when he heard that he had been posted to Chennai, because his heart was always beating to stay in Bangalore. At first, when he heard the news, his first reactions were like "99 percent, I'm not going man". On the 6th of June, we had gone on a short distance, short number class trip to Meenakshipura, not more than 15 kms from Mysore. I guess, we were only 10 of them, and all fro
