			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>There are times , when life will appear to be at its best or it may be like u r the only one spared to hit high time or it may be like &#8216; What the hell,y me!!??!! &#8216;. But, trust me, it always is different with these people around &#8211; 100 % Fun, 200 % Awesome and 300 % Never Care Attitude!!! It won&#8217;t be gr8 if i don&#8217;t describe each one of them.</p>
<p>Common to all &#8211; Food , Food , Food !!! Fun , Fun , Fun!!!</p>
<p>Akshay &#8211; The so called &#8216;Cleavage Boy &#8216;, who wanders around ruthlessly in his own low hip style!!! A person who plays all kinda sport and is a good dancer as well. He has his own style in dancing too, Trust me <img src='http://s1.wp.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' />  A SSN Engineer who does things very well and has a care free attitude!!!</p>
<p>Balaji Dr &#8211; The official organiser of our trips(though no one respects him, i gotta tell this). He is one of the top notch when it comes to being hit by others and fun!!! He has been pregnant for the past 3 years. Most of the time, the whole group sets off 4m his place. Of all the people in the group &#8211; Madhan, Balaji and Kavin share a special secret which comes along with them always, although they might disagree <img src='http://s1.wp.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' />  One person who tries a lot to speak to gals, but has never gone beyond asking &#8216;Excuse me, please move!!! &#8216;. One helluva Great Organiser.</p>
<p>Balaji Choti &#8211; U might never believe that he has been the Master of Acts until u get along with him. A little guy for his appearance, but a star player when it comes to many things!!! A cool champ who never moves from his place, but somehow manages to get his work done.</p>
<p>Oj &#8211; The full time &#8216;Comedy Piece &#8216; of the group (Kunal shares this title with Oj). He is for public use and all frustrations are always shown on him. One person who can bare everybody else&#8217;s burden and still be fun!!! He might look intelligent, but actually a very dumb piece <img src='http://s1.wp.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' /> !!!</p>
<p>Kavin &#8211; The &#8216;Kennedy&#8217; of the group, lives in his own way and as i told u, Kavin, Balaji Dr and Madan share a &#8216;DARK&#8217; Secret and in private Balaji and Kavin also shared a worse secret during the Goa trip!!! <img src='http://s1.wp.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' /> . A spirited one, when it comes to basketball and sometimes is in tears, when people take his trousers <img src='http://s1.wp.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>C.M. Machakanni &#8211; We all owe him a lot, when it comes to taking photos!!! The &#8216;Acu Pi Officer&#8217; of the group. He manages everything right from cash to the paying of bills. He loves to watch sun set, by the beach, especially on Sundays!!! N there are many more things to say like &#8230;. &#8216;C.M and five Rottis, C.M with children, C.M and yellow pieces, C.M and karak murak chocalate @ night&#8217;!!! A very good time pass piece!!!</p>
<p>Kunal &#8211; Where to start about &#8216;Mr.Chilly&#8217;???. The famous phrase &#8216;Kurukku Kabhodhi&#8217;(actually Kuruttu Kabhodhi), phrased by him, will never be forgotten down the lane!!! Kunal is fun, his body is &#8216;a public play ground&#8217;. A nice champ and is pakka local irrespective of the dress he wears. Basically, to finish it &#8216;The White Vadivelu&#8217; of our gang and would never talk on only one occassion(when it comes to food!!!).</p>
<p>Yugesh &#8211; One might judge him to be very silent and very sacred, but that isn&#8217;t the truth. He comes under the &#8216;Beaters Team&#8217; and loves to smack down a lotta ppl!!! A great Tennis player and is basically a very helpful person.</p>
<p>Deepak &#8211; A very systematic guy, who is one of the best when it comes to havin fun and talking!!! He plays football and freaks out a lot to add to his originality. Its rare to find such people like him &#8211; &#8216;Lets do it, when we think about it&#8217;.</p>
<p>Gokul &#8211; You can call him anything. Dog, Idiot, Buffalo or any other thing, it does not matter to him. All he cares about is FUN and FOOD (typical person of the group!!!). He tries a lot to get slimmer, but unfortunately, all his efforts were in vain. The biggest episode in his life which none of us could agree is that he is gonna be an &#8216;M.B.A&#8217; graduate, thats seriously not acceptable!!!</p>
<p>Sanjeev &#8211; The &#8216;Technical Person&#8217; in the whole team!!! Got a big time offer and promised to get PS3 for the whole group <img src='http://s1.wp.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' />  <img src='http://s1.wp.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' /> . A person who is down to earth and is strict when it comes to rules. A gentleman, who enlightens us and speaks of topics which none of us have ever heard!! A very successful person, but has the highest probability of becoming an &#8216;Anniyan&#8217; bcoz of his temper, when it comes to bending rules!!!</p>
<p>Madan(Black Current &#8211; Definitely not the ice cream flavour <img src='http://s1.wp.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';-)' class='wp-smiley' /> ) &#8211; We dont set off trips without him. The biggest entertainer one can ever see, a stand up comedian and a dedicated lover to Aishwarya, right from first standard!!! One thing which he does not understand is that he is naturally black and no one can change that, even if he applies multani matti and sits @ home(he tries very hard, but no results @ all).The photo of Madhan and Balaji taken at Goa is there @ every home to scare little children, when they do something wrong <img src='http://s1.wp.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' /> (The picture was black majorly).</p>
<p>Sughanth &#8211; The &#8216;Smart guy&#8217; who has a good sense of dressing and loves to explore places. He mingles with people in no time and takes up a unique place in the &#8216;Beaters team&#8217;!!!</p>
<p>Pranov &#8211; Referred to as &#8216;Retarded&#8217; somtimes(kidding,man). He plays around a lot and talks, even though none listen to him <img src='http://s1.wp.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' /> . A kinda guy who is fun and loves to freak out a lot!!!</p>
<p>Well, thats about all of them.. Hope yo agree that the title goes well with the subject <img src='http://s2.wp.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':-)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The world(not literally) spins around for two concepts(neither gravity nor air!!). It gyrates around money and one&#8217;s safety on his/her property(Reality!!!). People think that they are sagacious by being considerate, but the bottom line is that they lose a cogent amount of substantiveness in being so!!! Software Engineers are people with extraordinary endowment. Their ability to think and solve problems is prodigious, their keenness and their grasping power apprises you on how practical and sharp they are!!! I have come across so many software people, who are so damn smart.They can frame and optimise a solution intended for a problem in no time, which initally might have been a feasibility issue!!! These people can definitely rule the world, but why aren&#8217;t they so despotic or why aren&#8217;t they well known outside their community(their technical circle) or why aren&#8217;t they called &#8216;Real Achievers&#8217;. Its quite simple to find the answer. The only people who get those two concepts easily are the Software Engineers!!! Its more like a worker working in a glamourized way!!! Software Engineers miss some things in life like managing people in the true sense, never given a situation to take big time risks.<br />
I study Software Engineering and the thing i feel is we gotta be least proud to be taking up this job. Its the safest job possibly on earth(leave recession behind). You got one good chance to live, achieve something, which you feel is the best to do!!! Live life your way and think about the craziest things you can do, rather than worrying about few, not so worthy, concepts!!!<br />
Its your Life, Live it to the fullest!!!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A small incident happened today..<br />
I take a bus to my office daily. Today, the journey was special! The bus was cramped and the conductor pushed me to the last seat. The journey was customarily for another two stops. After that, i gotta place to bear on(was lucky today!). Then,after a few minutes passed by, could hear two people bawling at each other. Initially, thought it was the usual yelling of people, but as time passed by, a knife flashed right in front of my eyes! The good thing was that i understood neither of the people&#8217;s dialect(was like a dumb person!!). And the best thing was that i had to disembark in the next stop. These two people were yelling at each other like hell and the human was vacillating with his knife in all directions. There is no other way, gotta go near that mad person(I thought he was!!) as he was near the door! (Cant speak a word as i did not know his language). My eyes were over the knife(like when u get to watch a tennis match!!!). My stop came, and i cant run just like that(beautiful girls were looking @ me,kidding!!). I watched my steps and as he was waving his hand, traces of wind crossed across ma chest(I could feel it), and guess what, a centimeter away, the knife passed(trust me, it was a swift wave!!!). When i got down from the bus, i gotta read the board &#8211; &#8220;LIFE IS PRECIOUS&#8221;. That is when you can really feel life in you!!! Cheers for living, live life to the fullest as you don&#8217;t know when it ll terminate.</p>
