The Chronicles - chapter 1 - my early days

i do not remember much about my early days (obviously!!), but my parents tell me that i was a very naughty kid, and was very protective about my younger sister. infact so protective, that when in our later years we used to fight like anything, they used to wonder if we were the same kids......

another highlight of my nappy days was that i used to love to imitate my mom while cooking, so that kitchen was my playground - and i used ti demand for all utensils that i laid my eyes on - so much so that at times mom did not have anything left in which to cook food in.

also, i never slept at night (a habit that continues to this day), so my mom and dad had a hell of a time raisig me - specially my dad, coz he used to come tired from office, and then just as soon as he was dozing off, i began my "waa waa" song (Thnx dad for bearing with me)

then when i started to walk, one day i broke a glass bottle while my mom was in the kitchen and i was in he living room, and by the time she came running, i had cut my feet by walking on the glass shreds. the time till this injury was healed was like living hell for my parents, since i always used to untie the bandages and try to walk

i was a late walker, and the first time i walked, i actually ran from the bedroom to the main gate (it has like 3 rooms and an aangan in between)........ only when i reached the door did i stop (mainly because it was closed). my mom still jokes that had the door not been closed that day, God knows till where i would have ran!!!

that when i was 10 months old, i had a real bad case of jaundice, and the doctors feared for my life. my mom sat on the hospital bench for 3 days and 3 nights straight, till the time i was not declared out of danger. and my elder sis was caught praying in front of the mirror, asking god to take her life n spare mine....... Aapu n Mom - i love you!!!

that i was a big child, and during the pregnancy days the doctors believed that it were to be twins. think of the fun we could have had!!
thses are some of my recollections from my ealry days.....

The chronicles start

This is the start of Chronicles of the Doodles. for the uninformed, doodles are the drawings you do unintentionally while you are busy with something else......

so, here i am, on a saturday evening, writing away to glory while the world around me is enjoying and having a blast.. Poor man, you would say, but please do not be so fast in drawing conclusions, for according to me weekends are a time to relax..... and for me the best form of relaxation is sitting infront of my laptop and do whatever i feel like doing..... you may say that i am addicted with computers.... and that is true.

i have just turned 25, and the only thing i have been sure of all along is that i need a computer to survive. coding is my life, and is the biggest ego booster for me. believe me, the kick that you get whan you have finally created that tough code can be matched by nothing.

but after two years in the software industry, i feel dejected, distraught and find that all my dreams are shattered. while in college me and my friends believed that to succeed in this industry all you neeed to know is how to code, and innovative solutions are rewarded. but i find that in the service based software companies like the one i am working in, it is not your skills in front of the computer but rather the skills with which you can interact with the client, write mails, and kiss your manager's a** that matters here.

i still am continuing with this organization partly because my bond is still not up, and partly because of some other reasons. but once i am free of these boundations, i will break the shackles and soar in the wind like a free bird.....

hopefully that day will come soon.....
