En Daddy!(Vaaranam Aayriam style)

This one is for most of you who wonder i am the way i am...mokkai wise of course. Unlike what most of you think, its not because of something thats mixed with my food everyday. My guess is its alll probably in my genes...the biological ones...not the stonewashed ragged looking ones...
Now why have I suddenly confessed to that?
Lets rewind back to today afternoon...lazy holiday...i sit in the sofa...trying to make my nose stop whistling..a talent it has acquired ever since i caught the darned cold...when my dad, who's watching some cooking show about baking a cake comes out.
Then with a genuinely confounded, serious expression says:
'Indha cooking show la...oru lady..inoor lady-a paathu 12 muttai-s poadunga nu solra ma...ennaku puriyala...andha lady aala epdi avalo mutta poada mudiyum...ava enna koazhiya?'
(For the tamil challenged...get the translation in the thrd or grp chat! Lets face it...you guys are the only ones who read my blog :D)
And without stopping at that, with the same serious confounded expression..he continues 'Aparam vera andha lady solra...next cake bake aaydum nu...iva dhane ma lady-a mutta poada sonna...ava dhane bake?'
then strolls bak in with no change in expression at all..despite me giggling my head off!
I rest my case!

The tragic story of the nallennai

For those of you who dunno tamil, nallennai is a type of oil. Now for those of u whod unno tamil, you wont understand this blog so shoo :P
Ever wondered how it got its name? I thot about it and this is what i think history luks like here:
Once upon a time, nallennai was just called ennai...thr was tis one particular ennai bottle that was a don in a ennai area (enna area? ennai area..yaess yaess)
So on its deathbed, this ennai's grandson asked 'Thatha...neenga nallennaiya...kettennaiya?'
To which the grandpa ennai replied 'Theriliyaee paaaa' and evaporated.
Then lotsa ennais gathered around feeling sad abt the ennai passing away and the grandson realizd 'Mebbe my thatha was nallennai'
From that day forth, he went around saying 'naanga elaam nallennai'
And who do you think survived the test of the fittest? Nallennais :D

Ek gaao mein ek kisaan raghu thatha.....

Alert: Those are in fluent in our Rashtra Baasha(the language Hindi...not a remake of the rajni movie) may need lotsa cotton to wipe off all the blood that may flow from the ears.
So its just another monotonous day at work...and there just isnt any mood to work.So what would any self respecting software professional do? If you've answered 'Find a way to make yourself work'...beeeep....you have officially been disqualified from being my friend...please dont let the door hit you on the way out :P
Now those who can stay must have answered like this: Find a way to pass away the time...
Thats how we decided(we = the 'GanG' i'm apparently in :P) to learn a language...now again: among you non-disqualified ppl..if somebody thot language meant a programming language...the disqualified ppl are waiting for you.
Here are the fruits of the hours and hours of combined effort to..ahem...learn Hindi...

"swine chup karo hindi mein baath nehi karsakthe tho oopar se rope se thongo hain!!"

A: "yeh B ko hindi mein chup ki alawa kuch nahi aathi hain"
B:"alawa na

"kabhi tum tere naam mara tha?" (When did you change your name?)

"woh waali hoo....bucket nahi ho"

A:"is beech mein bakri kahaan se ayi?"

Eeeeeraam....

Its started raining in Chennai...
One of the best times to travel around here...by foot or vehicle. I guess everything starts late during the rainy season coz of the hugeee traffic jams that seem to magically appear immediately after a few drops of rain...of course, there is the option of just getting down from your vehicle and walking...provided you are a good swimmer...or u can make water make way for you like Moses did...
There's also the damp clothes hanging all around the house...coz the terrace is no more a good option...
And the oh-its-no-nice-n-dark-outside-wont-it-b-lovely-if-i-can-just-curl-up-n-sleep-but-wait-i-hafta-b-stuck-in-the-office moods arent that productive at work either...
Not to mention the sinus monster loves attacking me as soon as it starts getting a little damp around...
I can keep going on n on..
But guess what? This is one of the best days I can ask for....There's something magical about the rain isnt there? :D :D

That time of the year...

Its that time of the year when u think everything arnd u is fallin apart...or fallin sick...or givin bad appraisals..
So how do u get over it?
I tried cribbing abt it till my heart bled...apparently arnd tis time of the yr, ur heart's blood comes from an akshaya paathram n u cant bleed it out...
so then i startd the usual think-positive u can get thru tis approach...apparently every positive thot is followed by an equal n opp thot 2 days later...hey i'm human! i cant help it!
So thennn i decided...lifestyle change. I'm too bored with life..wat if i change my routine...wake up earlier, start the studying i'v been putting off for so long...breathe in freshhh air...leave home early from office...see the outsdie worldd!
U wanna kno how tats goin? Its 12:40am n i'm typing tis form my desk at work!
Life! wat else can ya do abt it?
(suggestions open!)
