Thirukkural

I have become a great fan of thiruvalluvar. Its Amazing how he discusses things and puts across the message (the problem is .. most people dont understand) in two lines. I have been reading a few thirukkurals on the net and i am enjoying them. There are even english translations for each and every kural.

I love this kural..

Anjuvadhu anjamai pedhamai anjuvadhu
anjal arivar thozhil.

I was wondering what was wrong with my previous post. Only a part of the post appears on the page, but if u refresh the page ... a real magic happens --> u can find the second para.

Dodged a doggy

I was listening to music while i was waiting for the tram. Without my knowing i was walking back in slow motion.I could hear someone panting and turned back. There was this huge dog lying there as if it was saying "this is my territory, get back!!". I was like Ooops, i almost stepped on the dog`s feet there. Now i was in a position i cud not even run, that wud have been a terrible mistake & i knew that. I was really scared at this moment. I said to myself "Take it easy mate, cool down".

I pretended as if nothing happened, and slowly (very slow) moved towards the tram stop. I was very lucky coz the dog did not bother too much (may be it just had food and was too lazy).

Back with a bang

Yo folks, i have not blogged for centuries now. I cant believe i could do this to all my ardent fans (ok romba too much dhan.. konjam adjust pannunga).

I moved to Melbourne a while back and found a job in GE money as a Business Analyst. My life, sorry my wife is still in Madras though. That is the tuffest part. I cant even explain how much I miss her. But there is so much light at the end of this small tunnel. She will soon be joining me in Melbourne. I found a beautiful two bedroom appartment in Hawthorn, which is not far from my office. Infact it is just 15 mins walk from my office.

It is a great feeling to set up a house for your wife to move in. If you recollect the movie parthiban kanavu, srikanth sets up the house for sneha, with everything she likes. The house is ideally located with shops nearby, walking distance from the trams and close to the city and office. Best thing i like about the appartment is the view from the balcony and the balcony itself. Having spent a lot of time in my grandma`s house in Bombay, which has two balconies, i just love them. Most of the times i would be in balcony either reading, or gazing.

The idea of having a hot coffee with kavitha in the balcony thrills me. I just cannot wait to see kavitha in Melbourne.
