Euro Trip!

I got my UK VISA last Thursday. Its a visitor visa valid for 6 months. Thats pretty cool as I plan to visit my bro in July 1st week. Just need to book the tickets now. Will be doing that today night :).. And this week would apply for my schenegan visa. I have always wanted to see Eiffel Tower in night. So I guess this is my chance! I could have never thought about all this just a few years back when I was in college. Well good for me that things are different today! And I am gonna make the most of them!!

India minus IT

I often wonder what would we all be doing if India was not having IT industry. A little hard to imagine right?! People have discussed to death the reasons for India becoming a force in IT, so I dont need to repeat them.

I just wonder what my other job would have been, and how difficult/easy would it have been. My best guess is Control Engineer in some textile/steel industry! The 2nd best guess is that I would have started out as JE (Junior Engineer) in PSEB (Punjab State Electricity Board). Ofcourse my dad would have had asked for few favors :-)

Almost daily one of my friend would say how they hate their job!! Thats because many times we often take things for granted. We crib even when inside of us knows that at the moment thats the best place we are in. Anyway thats what I think.

A little question to close the post - What job you would have been in, if not for your current job?!

India or US

This is the question everyone asks me. I ask this question myself too! And I dont have a clue. I am still in dilemma as whether to settle in India or US. The answer to this question would decide where I pursue my MBA.

The answer would have had been easy if MBA in US was not so expensive. I have second thoughts whenever the figure of 70,000 USD crosses my mind!! Well lets see what direction I turn too. Guys, help me decide bcoz time is a factor here!!

Nice days are back again!

The weather today was nice after ages (or so it seems)!.. It wont be long before we would be carrying our racquets and enter the tennis court. Man, I am waiting for that day :). The wait was fuelled today, by TT tourney organized by ASHA Detroit.

It was tough competition from round-1 itself. I am in best position to comment this, as I was the referee till semi-finals. God, those guys knew how to play!! Allen (just a 14 year old kid from Chinky land) was a treat to watch! So were doubles team Jerry/Jamal.

Anyway, coming back online, we had a nice little party at home today.. It was given by few of our colleagues (they got a promotion). Our house got cleaned on this yearly event :-). Well that brings to end good part of the weekend. Its already 2.30am, and Sunday will be over before I know it! But hey, its time to have some nice dreams now. Signing off.
