Jan 2010

It has been an interesting month.  If it is any indication of the year ahead then it must be a very interesting year ahead.  The weather at Chennai has been cool and pleasant.  Ramya and I have been taking that extra effort to avoid noise as much as possible – either by keeping out windows closed or just by avoiding any activity that has noise – including switching on the idiot box.  That has really helped us have a relaxed mind.  I also travelled a lot – first to Delhi, then to Tiruchi and then to Bangalore for Campus interviews and to Hyderabad and Mumbai.  My experience has so far been very disappointing.  Guys in premier B schools are well short of our expectations  - which are very minimal and I get a feeling the schools are not doing much to shape these guys up.  May be we were like this long back when we came out of college !

The company is doing well and there are indications that I may be seeing some change in my role / assignment which could possibly result in my relocating elsewhere. 

On the home front, appa and amma would be celebrating their 50th wedding anniversary and Ramya and I our 15th.  It is a landmark year – more so with Shruthi going into her 10th grade.  Sandhya is getting married in Aug 2010 and Bharat finishing his under graduation at Stanford.  So a lot of action expected over the next few months.
