Its Break Time....

Yes its correct.I left 3 days ago and I came back last nite only from Delhi.I had to attend a training.Now I would be leaving tomorrow for a very important assignment.Tension is there as it will include some things which I havent done yet.Its a big challenge.Lets see how it goes!Wish me luck and pray for me!Really need it!

Friendster & Orkut....

I guess now a days, its more like a trend to be a member of the community sites rather than actually using them for what they are intended for, you got it right, for building communities.  I have seen so many people coming up and asking me whether I am on that "community site" or not? And there are not just one or two sites or there.  I know just a few but believe me, there are alot out there on the net. As I have been asked by many so here is the answer, I am now on the Friendster  and on Orkut . No, not coz I have accepted to be a part of the trend but coz some of my very good friends are there on them and its nice to be there where all your nears and dears are, isnt it? If you ask whom I liked much than the other, my answer would be none coz they both are same but just have a different interface.  Both have the same purpose, meet with new and keep in touch with the old! So if you are there on any of them, just send me a buzz or message!See you there!  

I Am Monkey....

If you are thinking that I am going to call and treat myself like a Monkey from the title than you are wrong.Infact, I am talking about my sun sign according to Chinese Astrology.Chinese Astrology is different from the other astrologies available.According to it, persons are divided into 12 animal categories.Mine is Monkey according to that.If you do not know what's yours sun sign according to Chinese Astrology, you can check it out from here.  Just fill in your details of your date of birth and you will find the animal in you.Well now if you ask me that how much true it is, I can say that general charectristics for me looks okay and quite right.I specifically liked one line which says that "monkeys forgive but they don't forget.".Absolutely correct about me! I am posting the link here once again so that its easy for you if you are interested in Chinese Astrology: Find your Chinese Animal Sun Sign from here. All About Chinese Astrology from WikiPedia And last but not

I Am Clear....

I have cleared my exam.  So now I have got my second(yup second) Masters in Computer Applications.  I am happy?Yes I am!It was a big burden on my head.  Thank God its over now.  Thanks a lot to all who prayed and wished for me!

Love, Some Folds Unfolded IV....

Link To Part-III      Link To Part-V Some times things do not happen according to our wishes.  Sometimes we want something but its just us who wants that.  As it is said,a clap is by both the hands but a slap is by one!So if there has to be a clap of joy than both the hands must come together but if you want to slap someone,either one will be handy!It takes a lot to make something complete and successful.  So much of effort,strength and dedication is required to make something( anything ) complete and successful.  But there is one another thing which is also required and is above all,that is will,desire.  If you don't desire deeply from the heart,you wont be able to put your best effort for it.  And if the best efforts wont be there, results also will be just average or may be not according to you.  It applies to every aspect of our lives.  Where ever you want to see, you can see this logic working. This is also true for relations.  Relations are so much delicate yet so much impor

Fingers Crossed....

I had a very important exam which I missed.  I was not able to take it up coz I was not well and was hospitalized.  Why?Don't ask me the reason coz its strictly personal!Anyways, I took it up in the next semester.  The result of that exam is going to be out very soon now.  Its really important for me as its the only obstacle between me and my second Masters degree.  Yes second as I have already one Masters degree in Computer Science.  Since I have got the news, tremendous pressure is there.  Pray for me guys.  Hope I shall make it.  Fingers crossed!

Expectations or Inability....

We all are not so good and neither so much bad.  People come to us and leave us.  Some do this under the pressure of circumstances and some deliberately.  But even if one have left someone, can't he be with him/her in his/her bad times when he/she needs him the most?Being with someone in good times is something which all do but when the bad time comes than all one needs is support and a shoulder to cry.  Is it too much to ask and too costly to afford and give?When you need just 2 words from the person whom you think is closest to you,who  will be with you no matter what but you don't hear a word even from that person, how should it feel?You are crying, dieing every minute, feeling so alone, longing to hear two, just two words from that person but you hear instead of all this  that even your existence too doesn't matter for that person, how should it feel?You were always happy, smiling and all of a sudden, your smiles are gone and so is your happiness, is it just a coinciden

Tough Time....

I am not able to post anything over here from the last few days.To tell the truth, I am not able to do anything.There is some problem on the personal side.I wont say what but yes its so much big for me.Just praying so much hard that everything must go fine and well.

Love, Some Folds Unfolded III....

Link To Part-II      Link To Part-IV This is not  from me but I found it somewhere.  I loved each and every word of this article.  If you ask me in context from this that ever I was "in" love or I was "loving" someone, I can say with full confidence that I was loving that person but Love hurts at times too.Why?I shall try to say in an upcoming post.  Read this article and if you are "in" love or yet to have taste it, make it sure, you walk on this path if you have courage in your heart and you can make and fulfill a commitment for your love.  Loving someone for sometime and than leaving him/her when the time is not right, when you think you would be in trouble coz of this, when you think you are bored from that person or that person has not given you anything in return, its not love.  It wont hurt you breaking someone's heart but the other person will be crushed and believe me, its not easy to find someone who loves you without asking anything in retur

Two Sides of A Coin....

While just stumbling upon web-blogs, I came across one few days back.  There was a post from the poster where he wrote that just before 2 days when he was supposed to meet his love who was going to come and visit him, they fought and things came to broke-up.  It was a heart-touching entry and if you ever have loved someone, you could feel the pain of that guy.  I couldn't stop myself and left a comment.  Lately I got his reply back that he and his love have decided to be together.  He wrote that she loves him and separation is just one word which can't ever come in them.  I just have to say that my best wishes are always with you guys.  I hope and wish that never ever this thing would come in your love.  Fights,disputes do happen and they are a part of love and life.  But one must never make them so high that for that momenteric anger, you lose someone whom you would never find again. This was one side of the coin.  People who can't live without their loved ones no matter w

Break Over....

Yes I am back home but this trip didn't go as I planned and expected.  This came out to be a rather bumpy ride.  Well this means that the whole trip didn't go as I had thought and to make things worse, it didn't last for that time till it was supposed to be.  The only good thing that happened that this whole mess was not created by me or was not the result of any mistake or carelessness on my part. So I started on 9th from home.  I was going overseas to as like always, I caught a bus to New Delhi at about 9am.My flight was at 10.30pm in the evening and I was going to be at the airport at about 4pm but still I left early coz I had to pay a rescheduling fee for my ticket and I was asked to be at the airport 5 hours( yes you heard it right) from the schedule time of the flight.Nevermind I said to myself, I shall do an early check-in and would be free from all the hastle.So I started my trip on the bus.  It was an okay bus(cant ask for more in a bus right).Without any heart-bre

Break Time....

Yes the time has come and I shall be leaving(hopefully) tomorrow for a very important assignment. Its really an important one and there has been alot that has been happening( and probably will continue to happen) in the past few days. That was one of the main reasons that I wasn't able to be much active here too.  Just got to sort somethings and the funny part is that in that process, so many other things have lost the order!Anyways, I would be leaving tomorrow.  This time a little bit of tension and worry is there.  Wish me luck guys,I really need it!

Speechless....

Sometimes, some things happen which leave you just standing still and wondering about it.  Sometimes it can be a sudden and sad thing, sometimes something which makes you really happy and brings a smile on your face with an ever lasting memory of it on your mind.  You never can pre decide when it will happen and for what, no one has no control over it.  It just happens and when it does, it just leaves you standing there,sometimes smiling, sometimes sad, but always, speechless . Something like this happened with me too today.  Have you ever experienced the joy of getting something which you really wanted always and never expected to get from anywhere?How would you feel when someone, out of nowhere, gets it for you and that too just coz you have mentioned it to him that you wanted that thing some time in the past?That's the same that happened with me today.  Someone gave me two gift

Its My SONY....

Okay so finally I got my own laptop!Am I happy?To tell you the truth, I don't want to answer this question at this moment.  So when I shall answer?Well all I can say is that you have to wait for a little while longer to get the answer for it.  Its not that I am waiting for some technical analysis of the laptop to be done and than I shall post the results of it.  I am just waiting for some times to come.  For now I shall just say this only that its a nice feeling that you have your laptop at least for me its a very nice feeling. Al rite, so you must want to know which model I chose? Well I did a little bit of research and I finally landed up on Sony Vaio SZ38 . Among all the models that I saw, I liked this so much because of its sleek design powered with Core 2 DUO ( 2ghz) with a 1gb(I am going to upgrade it very soon) RAM.  With a 13.1 inch of screen size and just 1.65 kg of weight,its really a laptop that can fit and sit well on your lap :-).Good work SONY!

Tale of Four Days....

So what you would do when you can't make it to the  Oracle Open World?   No you wont organize your own open world but if there is an exhibition being hosted in your city for the first time and you have got a chance to be a part of it as an exhibitor , I guess one must try it out.  So that's what happened with me when my friend Mwho asked me to come and be a part of his stall in this year's  industrial fair organized by Tender World and Punjab Auto Show.   It was organized in Delhi up til now and this was the very first time when it has been organized in Punjab.Big event, I must tell you! So the exhibition had to start on 28th October.  Usually when you are an exhibitor, you have to make sure that all the flexes, broachers and pamphlets and all this kind of stuff must be ready at least 1 day prior to the main event so that you can just go arrange it.Hmm well it wasn't the case when it came to M.Sadly we or I must say, M was not as organized as he sh

Get Well Soon Jatin....

One of my very good friends  Jatin,  who just got engaged   had to undergo an operation on this 28th. Unfortunately I wasn't around at that time when he was getting operated, I was just struck somewhere.  So me and the entire group(Manjit and his wife Jyoti,Sunil,Kavita), we all went to see him in the hospital.  Though he was not supposed to laugh due to having stitches on the stomach, we still made him smile alot.I hope and wish he would be completely fine and back in action as soon as possible!  

Finally After A Long Wait....

Blogging is getting very much popular and there are a lot of Oracle related blogs which are mentioned in my favorite lists.  But some elite gurus are still not into the blogging and all that. But no doubt, we all want to read from them in a different style  or I should say in a light manner as compared to the normal talks and presentations they give. Jonathan Lewis needs no introduction when it comes to Oracle and Oracle Database .  He is among the most knowledgeable Oracle professionals in the  world.  His  site   is a great resource for some of the finest information about how Oracle works?But still uptil now, a formal blog from him was missing.  So finally, after a long wait from the entire Oracle community, he has started writing his scratch pad  .Do check it for sure if you really are interested in knowing some hard facts but with proofs and for me time to update my blogroll!                          

Feels Like Empty....

I am not able to be so much active on my blog in the past few days.  Not because that I didn't want to be or I was busy but coz that I am feeling empty from inside.  I am not sure why it is?There are some things that are there which are not letting me concentrate and think consistently.  That's why you have seen borrowed articles on my blog more than ever in the last few days.  I am not very happy with it.  I have some things in my mind but I am not sure how much time I shall take to give them a face with words.  Hopefully I shall recover very soon. Please bear with me till that short while. Thanks a bunch!

Happy Diwali....

Marriage is one of the most happiest and life changing events that can happen to one in his/her life.  There is no strength,no joy which can be compared to that trust,assurance that someone is with you,no matter what will be the time,conditions and circumstances may be!That strength one gets when he/she ties knot with his/her soulmate.This happiest moment has come now in my friend Jatin's life when he has met his better half, Deepti on 24th of September.  A pre-engagement ceremony was organized by the families of both Jatin and Deepti .I was not able to join  this auspicious occasion coz of my travel routines but my wishes for both Jatin, Deepti are always going to be there,doesn't matter where I am!My heartiest wishes are and forever will be with you Jatin,Deepti!Wish you have this world's joy,happiness  and success forever!Hopefully I won't miss the grand ceremony :-).   Here is the couple.  Click on the pic to see the whole album.
