I had worked on my webpage, most of the time today at office and only two sections are complete.. had a lot of coding, decoding and recoding.. ok.. whatever that means. I think my webpage template is sort of bland. but let it be., atleast I will get it online.. in the evening, I put the part of it online.. Still many of the links dont work., It will work soon and when its 90% functional, I will be forcing everyone to have a look.. for the moment.. keeping the fingers crossed.

In the evening(I was late at office), went to Southall temple with Girish, gave photos(party photos) for development, had dinner, went directly to bed.

Got up early, went to Office, was busy during all the day, In the afternoon, Zubin called up, said that Vijay Desai, had come from US on his way to India. His flight was at 9 O’clock in the night. Zubin wanted me to come to his place directly and then we can drop off Vijay at Heathrow. I know Vijay also, since, First time when we came here, We(Ramesh and Myself) had met Vijay, Zubin and Girish. In the evening dropped him off to Heathrow, came back had food.. Started working on my Webpage. I worked late in night, with my webpage..(a new design.. simple and good looking (hopefully!!)). and went to sleep.(only a template is ready).

Got up today morning(afternoon will be more appropriate) well after 12’O clock., Had to go to office to clear out some manuals, as part of ISO Certification., Rushed home, had a good bath, came back to Zubin’s house, had a breakfast (Lunch??) called up Smruti, and went to Office. After lot of Gadha-Mazdoori, We managed to get all the unwanted papers and the files out and I drove with all those stuff and dumped it in the rubbish dump place.

Now about Rubbish dump place, They have a place here, on my way to office, specifically designed for dumping unwanted thing and recycling. A good system, people drive with their rubbish and then dump them here. There are seperate big bins(like a shipping container) where the newspapers and magazines can be deposited, clothes items, plastics all can be deposited. A good system.

I remember during my childhood, when we used to go to tripunithura, we used to collect rubbish in our paati’s house, and we would break open the thrown away Chokes of the tubelights and in there, we get Iron, wrapped with copper coil if its a old choke or with aluminium coil when it was a modern choke. We(Pradeep, Prasanth and Me) used to sell that and also the old newspapers and get money. Those days were really wonderful.

After the work at office, I went home, despite a tempting offer of Batatawada at Smruti’s place., had food in the evening and slept. Another week comes..

Friday night, went home, cameback to Zubins house, slept well. Satruday morning got up, got into office, The CD Drive is Stuck in AS/400, Nothing can be done till its fixed, called Smruti, informed her, Went back to Zubins house., They have already gone some place, only Girish was there, I went home, and though it was pretty cold outside, I still decided to wash and clean my Car. I must have spent nearly 3 hours cleaning the car, checking the oil, washing it, cleaning interiors, mirrors and all the thingy’s inside the car.

Oooh.. My Car looks Sexy now.. (just like me 😉

Later in the evening, went to Zubins place, had food, and we had general timepass. In the evening, Rashmi had wanted to go for a movie.. so after dinner, we set out to Cineworld, Feltham. We got the tickets for Mohabattein (Rashmi wanted to see it). Got tortured for nearly three and half hours.. I wonder how such useless movies gain popularity. The movie was utter rubbish. Kuch bhi.. Well dont blame me for this review, I rate a movie high, when I am in the theatre, and I dont notice other people sitting around me or I am engrossed in the movie till the time I come out. But this movie, I was talking to Girish, in between, looking here and there and infact waiting for it to get over. If you have seen the movie., just answer this, Why does Jugal Hansraj’s girlfriend (Whatever her name is), start loving him instead of her wealthy boyfriend, just because he threw her into the pool??!! and that poor guy is apologizing also.. forget about the movie.. If you are planning to go for the movie and looking for recommendation, take my recommendation.. dont go.. better go for a walk and have some chana.. it will be more entertaining and relaxing.

Any way we returned by around two-two thirty in the morning after the movie..

Here’s a piece which I found on the book.. “Java Unleashed” on the internet…I liked it..

Consider an embezzlement program implemented with Java: A Worker object skims some Money objects from the CompanyFunds object and puts them in its own BankAccount object. If another Worker object uses the DoublecheckFunds object, a Police object will be called.

A nice way to introduce Object Oriented Programming..

In the afternoon, we(Zakir, Rajesh and myself) went for a good walk by the canalside.. The day is bright and sunny, though its cold outside. I love walks. Seems to be a good day today.. Has to come to office during this weekend., System upgrade to be done. Maybe Smruti will come in on Sunday to help..(We have to get that ISO thingy as well..)

Life is a game of Adventure.,
People tend to play it safe.

Get in Early into the office, and Get a lecture on getting Married from Rajesh and Smruti.. What a beginning for the day. Nearly one hour was spent on advising me to get married, and if possible in UK itself so that I can settle down here. Thanks., I will keep these in mind. Smruti, I had told you more than a year back, that after say another 5-10 years, I will be retiring, to my “Self Sustaining Farm House” (Alternate living??!!) and relax., maybe I will watch the world go by or just watch the paint dry. I havent changed a bit., I still has that in my mind. Thanks anyway.

I updated the Christmas party details today.. Go to the last Saturday’s,Sunday’s entry..

Just sent a Birthday Greeting to Radhu. I could not help the feeling, that I still like her a lot.
