lyfe update

– The ceremony went on very well. It was a small get together and yes for that night I was the king..the red carpet, the limo, the celebrity guests and of course the awards themselves. Will post pics later ( including a certain picture of sushanth with jerry yang ) – Its been a hectic week. With people going out on vacation it was less manpower here and I was thrown into all the meetings. – mom is visiting all the places here including san Francisco.. I have been busy with work and misc stuff. So no sight seeing at…

Long day and bad food

I wish last 2 days were 50 hours long. Time just runs too fast and I’m hardly getting time to do anything. I’m missing out on too many things, meetings, personal matters etc. Went out for dinner to Cesar’s on MGroad. If you care for you life, please never ever visit that place. I ask for a chicken a-la king, and he serves me a half-cooked chicken. I could actually see raw uncooked,untouched meat in my piece of chicken. He apologized and replaced the dish.( by that time I was totally put off by the raw meat). and oh and…

this sucks

After a long long time, I sat up all night to code and drove back home at 5:30am. Its 8:30am now, no power since an hour and I cant freaking sleep without power coz its way too hot. and now is the time I start getting that annoying headache. bah

Virus killed the US consulate and cost me money

My mom had gone to chennai to pick up US visitor visa today. Her appointment was at 8:15 – 8:30 am, but she only came out at 4pm. The US Consulate refused to give any official reason and my dad was waiting outside without a clue on what was happening inside. To make matters worse , they had to miss the train back home which was booked at 2pm. It turns out it was a virus issue. Apparently a Virus Knocks Out U.S. Visa Approval System. I for one, would have never imagined I’d lose money ( the wasted tickets…

Suit hunting over!

Yep that’s right. I finally found my suit. More importantly I found my tailor for life. If you are looking for one, you should try out the Van Huesen showroom on MG road ( next to GK Vale). First of all they have wide range of models ( I found only 3 – 4 models in all other places ) and the quality, color and texture of the suits are amazing. And the best part of the whole store was the tailor there. As soon as he saw me, he gave me the perfect fit suit. He suggested all the…

Critical Mass

These days my friends page has gotten so huge, I hardly seem to find time go though all the journal entries. Its that time of the year, when I go and strip down my friends list. ( Do other people face this problem? ) One important feature that LJ does not support is a way to add a person as you friend, but skip his entries in your friends page and a way to add a person’s feed to your journal without friending him.

Need Quick Help

Can anyone suggest me a nice place in Bangalore, where I can get a GOOD suit stitched in less then 2 weeks time. I need some place where they know what is what and do a decent job. None of the out-of-the-box ready made ones fit me 🙁

Lesson for the day

Women can never make up their mind about something. When they say “Yes” , they could really mean “No”. And I got the first hand experience of it today. From now on “I’ll decide and she will listen”.

*I give up*

Another major security flaw in Windows and that too its in the same freaking RPC service. Please patch your systems now before we see another blaster worm 🙁 http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/bulletin/MS03-039.asp Me being a computer geek , spent the last 30 min trying to make windows update work. I can imagine the fate of a normal computer user. Finally gave up on it and had to install the patch manually. How dumbfuck can MS be ? They do windows update via IE and since I was going though a proxy, it thought the proxy IP was my windows machine and was trying…
