Plans changed again. Probably HE has some different plans for me. I'm no more going to chandigarh. I'll be in bangalore only, for next one year probably, as a commitment to my new project. So I'm back to project again. Back to the place where i used to work before, same old people. The work hasn't started for me in the full swing. So i'm just enjoying this time. Just attended a training for two hrs in the whole day :) After the training I could appreciate the concept and domain of the new project.
Now I'm chatting with a friend and watching outside. Its pouring outside. Now I'm taking life as it comes to me. Lets see what next is in store for me.

Its raining in bangalore!
Yesterday was a day where I made wrong decisions and got struck everywhere all because of rain. I went to a nearby market along with a friend for some shopping. We intended to come back early as we had planned to watch a TV show at 8. As I was leaving I saw so many clothes (that I had washed) hanging outside.A thought came to my mind - “oh..they are dried now but I’ll pick them up after coming back. Anyway I’m coming early today”.
We were done with our shopping by 7 pm. It started drizzling! We had two options: 1. To go back home and 2. Do some internet surfing and then go back home. We thought that this drizzling will also stop by that time (high hopes!) And we made the wrong decision of going to cyber café. Just after 10 mins, we heard the noise of heavy rain. We were done with net surfing in 15 mins, but we didn’t even dare to step out. At 7.38 pm we made up our mind to leave. We didn’t want to miss our TV show :(. It was raining cats and dogs. We saw so many people standing inside the shops, waiting for this rain to stop. We thought waiting is of no use, we have to go at any cost. We moved to a place where we usually get an auto easily. Auto drivers were moving like kings yesterday. They didn’t even want to look at people like us who were trying to stop them. Some autos were already full. Some were asking hundred for a distance that is worth Rs. 12/-. We were completely drenched by that time. The weather was pleasant but it made us shiver for a moment. We just noticed that we are in front of a coffee shop. We decided to sip a coffee. There were so many people standing in front of that coffee shop. I bet that shop’s owner was the happiest person at that time, because his coffee was selling like hot cakes. I wish my parents were in Bangalore and I could call up my father to pick us from there. Called up friends to tell our story and hoping they could come to rescue us. Got to know that even they are struck up in the rain in some other place .At 8.20 pm we decided to move. It was still raining but it was no use waiting there. We decided to move a bit. Finally at 8.45 pm we got an auto whose driver agreed to come to our place for 40 bucks for a distance which is worth 12 bucks but we were so tired by that time! We hired that auto and finally reached home. All my dried clothes that were hanging out side were drenched with water by that time.
Finally we could see the end of that TV show :)

Weekend and the Aftermath!
Though the weekend is over, I couldn’t write about it because I didn’t get access to internet for the last two days. The weekend was full of exam-tension, fun, celebration and some sad moments.
Finally I managed to clear SCJP with a respectable score! Thanks to all my friends who guided and encouraged me a lot. Special thanks to Priyanshu for providing me the material. Some people voluntarily helped me in the last moment by providing some materials and it did help me there. Thanks :) That one month of tension is over. It was time to celebrate and freak out! Called up some friends went to see Mr. Beans. It’s a sweet movie. Had lots of fun. Our journey back to home was an unpleasant one as we had to pay 3 times the actual fare. Stupid auto-driver had done some tampering with the meter for sure.
Didn’t have much to do on Sunday, slept a lot, watched movies on TV and cooked good food. There was tragic end of my lovely weekend because of some tensions with a friend. The next day we managed to change the climax of my lovely weekend by fixing up the things.
I’m free now, trying to find out what next! And I could identify gym as one of the options. So yesterday was the first day at gym, though couldn’t enjoy it much as there was a big rush there and I was shocked to see that people are reserving the machines by keeping theirs towels in the queue. I could spend very less time in gym as I had to rush back home as it was my friend’s birthday and we had make some arrangements for dinner and the b’day cake. And it struck 12, we were back to our college way of celebrating the birthdays. Couldn’t resist putting the cake on her face :) We all danced as we knew that this was her last b’day that she would be celebrating with us. Our party had just started when we got a message from our landlord “Its 1 am. Please carry on with less noise”Ah! all moods switched off. We all wished good night to each other and went to sleep.

My cell phone
On Friday I discovered that I’m not able to close the flap of the cell phone (Sony Ericsson Z550i). I was surprised why all of a sudden my 7 months old cell phone is showing this odd behavior. Since last Friday it had 3 more free falls and it is behaving worse now. It seems it is planning to move away from me. This May seems to be bringing so many changes along with it. SO many things are happening around me and with me, so many people going ahead in life –some with life-partners, some with the new jobs, some with further studies, and some like me with the change of place. I missed out my cell phone who is showing a change in it's behaviour! -my only friend who used to connect me with everyone whenever I was alone is betraying me now. It’s no different from living human beings. I have so many wonderful memories associated with it; the same way I have with the people around me. It is the first cell that I bought with my own salary. It’s something which is only mine and no one else’s. My dear cell phone, please don’t try to be a human. It’s a difficult job. It’s their trait to betray people. You are a cute little fellow whom I’m not going to leave just like that.
