Reached home easily last week and since then pretty much doing nothing here.

Hyderabad, thou shalt be missed

Last day was also amazing. Got a farewell which I never expected again. In the end it looked as if everything was happening so fast. As if I wished I had more time. But then it has to come one day. Whenever you leave a place you get this kind of feeling. At your last day you will feel like you had one more day. Given that extra day you will again wish same. And by mathematical induction you will stay forever. So it gotta be one day or other.

Right now have to do packing and then sleep for a little while. Following was the Oscar Speech which I sent to my colleagues:

Hi all,
Today on the last day of office at oracle I recollect all the good times that I have spend and all the people I have befriended in past 1 year. This being my first job I learned here what it is to work in a professional environment. I was extremely happy with the team I worked. Honestly speaking if I were to work in corporate-IT job this team would be it. I am thankful to my teammates and managers who were always available for help....
...

Nice day

Today, second last day in Oracle, more or less turned out to be somewhat similar to last day. It started with as usual me hurrying up for getting ready and struggling to find something which can consist of breakfast. Finally a glass of the Real Mango juice made it.
When I reached office as usual there was little which I could call office work. But then there was closing procedure and due to some confusion in submitting exit requests I had to submit the laptop/desktop a day early.

All this done I was invited out for lunch by some office friends. Thereafter in the noon what I experienced was historic. So much so that at one point of time I started doubting if I deserved so much respect or not. But then it is what we call affection. I felt obliged to everyone. Honestly speaking I never expected such farewell. I am not someone used to being cynosure. It felt great to have such good friends, so many of them, in such a short duration. I had a great time in Hyderabad living, making friends, eating, earning, spending. Traveling, fooling around, not working in office and a lot more.

But there are times in life when you feel that you should move on. This was the time. And with this far it is no looking back. Although the places get left behind memories don't. People are left behind but friendship doesn't. As Mr.Harrison says and as Mr.me keeps recalling,

All things must pass,
All things mus pass away.

Now I will sing a song, which I didn't do yesterday, and sign off for last day at office. But it will be in text format. :)

There are places I remember
All my life, though some have changed
Some forever, not for better
Some have gone and some remain
All these places had their moments
With lovers and friends I still can recall
Some are dead and some are living
In my life I've loved them all

Last weekend

The weekend went nice. Mostly ate out on this one. Friday was amazing. On Sunday when I was paying at a coffee bar a little child came to me. She was just above knee level. She came and dint look up and clung around me. Now she gazed up and very next moment was in screams. I took her in arms to allay her but for no use (until her father came to her).
Later in the day I realized it was father's day on that day. :P

Last week

Today is the first day of the last week of my first job which may be last (corporate) job.

Bidar

June is almost here. And so is my last month in Hyderabad. The weather has been benign in the last few days. It is one of the awesome times when clouds shape up nicely in the skies. Just before the monsoons.
In such beautiful ambiance we visited fort of one of the five great empires in Southern India. Bidar. That was pretty much the weekend. This was on last weekend btw. This weekend visited Shirdi.
