My first post

this is my first post and i must say that i like this idea of blogging after reading some really stupendous post by others here..
as of now i am just another bored software engineer working in a IT firm in bangalore. Bored in the sense that today I have no work so much so that i am posting on a blog..
having worked in the IT industry for a couple of years now, apart from a bit of moolah that i get to pocket every month, i had some really interesting experiances and something that i would have reminiscenses about for quite some time.
Some intro abt me:
I am from lucknow and studied there itself..lady luck smiled and gave me a much coveted engineering rank is the prestigious IITJEE and Roorkee entrance exam. I continued my studies at Roorkee. Somehow stumbling past four years and scrambling past the finish line with a degree and a job in TCS ( so much for coming out with flying colors)..
did my training in trivandrum.. (a really great place with good memories).. i came to bangalore where i am stationed for almost two years now..meanwhile i got bored in TCS in may 2004 ( easy living also has its own draw backs) i switched to another software company, tavant technologies in bangalore.. now work was hectic but i wanted more.. ( greedy me:-) )..
gave cat this year...got calls from all the IIMs and converted IIM L ... good enough for me so finally after being out of my home city for almost 6 years here I come back to my home city for most probably the two best years of my life ( and surely the most hectic period also)..
that enuf of an intro..
By the way, before coming to bangalore i belonged to the "niche batch of virgin guys" who never interacted with gals but blore has been pretty kind to me where i have had gal friends most of teh time apart from female colleagues willing to talk to me also:-)
i will be posting some interesting experiances later..
as of now me taking a break..
i hope the boring part about me is over..
