Terror strikes again the twin city



Terror strikes again the twin city(Hyderabad) on August 08 2007, 3 months after the terror attack in the Mecca masjid. People were just returning back to the normalcy after that horrified attack in the Mecca masjid. Like every other time, the target this time was also the innocent people. It is very perplexing why the innocent people are targeted, this can be answered only by the mindless people who executed it and the almighty who watches them. Whatever may be the reasons, they will not achieve their objectives by such a barbarian act.

Allah's Apostle said, " Allah will not be merciful to those who are not merciful to mankind"
-- Narrated by Jarir bin' Abdullah (Shahi Bukhari).

There were so many incidents in the Prophet's (PBUH) life where he highlighted the brotherhood among all the people. In spite of these facts if anyone tries to attack Allah's creations then they will definitely be paid for their ruthless act in the judgment day. Let us all join our hands to fight against those barbarians and pray for the injured innocents. Also let us pray for the restring soul.

Data Pump Architecture & Its Salient Features

Oracle 10g Data Pump is one of the Oracle's greatest innovations in its database 10g release. I was so amazed after seeing its simplistic approach for the complex data transfer. In this blog lets see what is the limitation of traditional exp/imp and how this Data Pump is so powerful than the traditional method (i request you not to think that Data Pump is the upgraded version of traditional exp/imp, it is really a new and powerful feature).

Limitation of exp/imp
*********************
Traditional exp/imp is a client side utility. During export, it extracts the data from the database server through the server process and the data gets formatted and written into the dump file by the user process (in the client side). During import, the user process creates the SQL statements that to be executed in the database server and the server process executes those statements. If you clearly notice the architecture for exp/imp the work load is heavy in the user process. The server does not have any informations of the export/import activities.When the session gets lost or the instance gets crashed then we have to restart the whole export/import process from the beginning.

Data Pump Architecture
**********************
Data Pump is a server side utility, which means the whole process is done in the server unlike the traditional exp/imp. When the user process launches the export/import job the following components in the server side is created to manage the job.

1)Data Pump Master process DMnn
Starts when the Data Pump job is launched. When multiple Data Pump jobs are launched, each job will have its own DM process. Controls the DWnn.

2)Data Pump Worker processes DWnn
Master process starts n number of worker processes, where n is the parallelism mentioned while launching the job.

3)Control or Command queue
All of the work requests created by the master process and the associated responses from the worker processes are passed through it. This queue operates on a deliver-exactly-once model, means messages are enqueued by DMnn and dequeued by DWnn.

4)Status queue
Master process updates this queue with the job status and the error details. This queue operates on a publish-and-subscribe model, means any user process can query the queue to monitor the job’s progress.

5)Master Table
Table contains the detailed information of the current Data Pump operation being performed. Provides the information on each object being exported or imported and their locations in the dump file set, Records the parameters supplied by the calling program, Worker status information, Output file information. The table provides all the required information to restart a failed/stopped Data Pump job. Each Data Pump jobs will have its own master table. This table is created in the schema which launches this Data Pump job and the name of this table is same like job name.

Data Pump job working process
*****************************
  1. The user process establishes the session through server process.
  2. The user process launches the Data Pump job by creating the Master table and starting the Master process. The User process updates the Master table with the job details.
  3. The Master process now starts the worker processes, control queue and status queue.
  4. The Master process checks the job details in the Master table and updates the control queue with command to be executed by the worker processes.
  5. The worker process picks the command from the control queue and executes it (extracts the data and writes into the dump file or reads the dump file and executes the SQL statements on the database). The response is sent back to the control queue. The worker process also updates the Master table with its process status.
  6. The Master process now updates the Master table with the completed and remaining job details and updates the status queue with the completed job status and error details. The Master process updates the log file which describes the history of the job.

Steps to launch the Data Pump jobs
********************************
  • Create the Oracle directory in the database. Data Pump writes (reads for import) the dump file and the log file in this oracle directory location. Oracle directory is owned by the SYS schema even if it is created by the user who has "CREATE DIRECTORY" privilege.
CREATE DIRECTORY exp_dump AS '/d21/oradata/dump_file';
  • Grant access on that directory to the user running the Data Pump job.
GRANT READ,WRITE ON DIRECTORY exp_dump to system;
  • Launch expdp/impdp from the client side.
EXPDP SYSTEM/MANAGER DIRECTORY=exp_dump PARALLEL=5 DUMPFILE=apps_exp_dump%U.dmp LOGFILE=apps_exp_dump.log FULL=y

In this command we mentioned PARALLEL=5 which means Master process will start 5 worker processes.

(For more options on this expdp/impdp please use -help on this command)

Data Pump Features
*******************
  • Faster in performance
Data Pump is 15-45 times faster than the traditional exp/imp. This high performance is due to the degree of parallelism it supports. Data Pump accesses the data from the database through 2 different techniques Direct path and External path.
  • Generate SQL files
We can generate the DDL statements of the objects using impdp. This SQL file can be used for the documentation purpose or to re-create the database structure.

IMPDP SYSTEM/MANAGER DIRECTORY=exp_dump DUMPFILE=apps_exp_dump%U.dmp LOGFILE=apps_imp_dump.log SQLFILE=create_database_sql.sql
  • Transfer the data without creating the dump file
We can transfer the date from one database to another database in the network through database link. Export and Import will run concurrently, the one feeding the other. Amount of time we save using this method is amazing.

IMPDP SYSTEM/MANAGER DIRECTORY=exp_dump NETWORK_LINK=db_link LOGFILE=apps_imp_dump.log
  • Fine-Grained Object Selections
There are 2 powerful options for selecting the required objects for export or import.

IMPDP SYSTEM/MANAGER DIRECTORY=exp_dump NETWORK_LINK=db_link LOGFILE=apps_imp_dump.log INCLUDE=TABLE:"IN ('EMP','DEPT')"

Only the tables 'EMP' and 'DEPT' will be imported.

IMPDP SYSTEM/MANAGER DIRECTORY=exp_dump NETWORK_LINK=db_link LOGFILE=apps_imp_dump.log EXCLUDE=TABLE:"= 'BONUS'"

Except the table 'BONUS' all other tables will be imported.
  • Easy to monitor the Data Pump job
Any user process can attach to any Data Pump job running in that database just by knowing the job name. We can get the job name from the log file or from DBA_DATAPUMP_JOBS table. Once attached to the job we can monitor its status using the command status.

IMPDP SYSTEM/MANAGER ATTACH='JOB_NAME'
IMPDP>STATUS

Other ways to monitor the job status are by querying the Master table, querying the dynamic performance view V$SESSION_LONGOPS and looking in to the log file.

sweet mangoes

Its been a long time since i blogged, that doesn't mean that i had a dull period but
truly speaking i didn't get time ;-) Last week i got approved to work from my home (Thanjavur). do you want to know why i went home? The reason is quite funny but thats how every parent wishes.

We have three mango trees in our home, two bobbed up from the seeds which we planted for fun (see how rich our thanjavur soil is). When it started to grow my grandfather said that these trees were going to yield one of the best and sweetest mangoes in future. My grandpa's words became true this year, those trees started to fruit the sweetest mangoes and the amount it yielded was amazing. My mother shared the fruits with all the relatives and neighbors but still there remained the pile of mangoes.
She wished that i also share that sweet mangoes and enjoy the sense of great happiness.

Having the mangoes fruited from our own tree will really makes you freshened up, but the pettiest part is that, we cannot get this type of refreshment from the apartment which is now become the part of our life in the cities. I wish the real beauty of the nature should be preserved in cities.

Next i am planning to blog some techie stuffs, stay tuned.

bye

thrill filled goa trip


starting from hyderabad
**********************
feb 14th 2007, people around the world were too busy selecting the cards,bouquets & gifts for their beloved ones to show their undying love,my office was also decorated with red coloured & heart shaped balloons,but i was in the different world that day thinking about our goa trip.

it was 4:30pm, i moved out of my office and went to my room.ironed & packed my attires for the trip and got freshened up for the journey. after having my lite dinner, i started moving from my room to catch the bus to bangalore. at 8:45pm, me and vinod boarded into the bus and kick started our happy good journey.

vinod is working in ibm hyderabad, he is very good in english poetry and works very hard to establish his own identity.

all of a sudden i got landed into my dreamland, their is no words to explain the beauty of that dreamland.
endless authentic blue colour sea,
clean white colour sea shore,
calm motherly touch waves,
young beautiful foreign chicks....
the bus driver pulled me out from the dreamland and said we had reached bangalore.


day 1
*****
feb 15th 2007 at 7:30am, we reached vaitheesh's room in btm layout where arjun and karthik shankar(cks) were already reached from chennai. vaitheesh is staying as a paying guest in a room which is shared by 3 people.he had asked his other roommates to stay in other rooms for that day. we all got freshened up and moved out to have breakfast at 11:00am.

vaitheesh is too cool guy he always loves to be with friends and enjoys every moment of his life.he also works in ibm but in bangalore.

for the breakfast we walked all the way to "adayar ananda bavan" which is a kilometer away fromvaitheesh's room. on the way vaitheesh went to travel agent to cancel murali's ticket from bangalore to goa.

murali known for his mischiefs and smart enough to get himself out from any difficult situations. he is a marine engineer. in a year,he stays 6months in india and another 6months he himself doesn't know.

black friday
***********
we landed in front of "adayar ananda bavan" and fuelled our self with idlie, dosa, pongal, sweets and coffee. after which we went to pvr in bangalore forum to watch the movie "black friday". show was at 12:10pm and we were waiting for rajesh. he had to come from iim-b hostel.

rajesh is very good in mathematics and enjoys travelling.when he is with us our groups will be filled with activities. he is doing his mba in iim-b.

since we had 30min for the show, we all went for the window shopping in forum. as usual cks started to canvas us to buy a group shirt/t-shirt, vaitheesh also seconded him, but finally concluded that we can buy it in goa.

cks is very artistic,we can see his wonderful paintings in his room.
because of him and murali we participated in our school culturals and got so may acclaims from staffs and friends.he is working in cts chennai.

it was 1:00pm we all entered into the movie hall, rajesh also joined us after 5 min. movie was about the 1993 atrocious bomb blast took place in bombay. all the characters in that movie was given a real name like dawood ibrahim, tiger menon.. movie was so realistic that we could feel the pain and agony of the people who suffered a lot during the bomb blast and the brutal babri masjid demolition. this is not the movie to be watched before setting off the goa trip, but being an indian we loved to share the pain and feelings of our brothers and sisters.

bus to goa
*********
movie got over at 3:30pm and we had to ruch to get the luggage from vaitheesh's room and had to catch the goa bus which was scheduled for 5:30pm. the boarding point was too far from his room, so we decided to have the lunch near the boarding point. we were very quick and landed the boarding point 30min prior to the departure time. we placed our luggage in the bus and went to have our lunch. we ordered for the rava-idlies and they delayed serving us, which ended up gulping it.

we then entered into the bus at 5:30pm, first time i was seeing the sleeper,semi-sleeper, a/c and non a/c under same coach.we had booked a non a/c sleeper coach. bus started moving and we were so happy that we were going to accomplish our childhood dreams.

there was no enough light to play cards, so we played 21 questions ("grandmaster" show in vijay tv).it was so fun and interesting that we played it till 11pm. the highlight of that game was vaitheesh's personality. he asked us to guess the personality in his mind we asked general questions like dead/alive, male/female, indian/foreigner,etc... finaly we found that personality it was vaitheesh himself. we took 12 questions to find him. after having our dinner in the reliance dhaba we went to sleep. driver stopped the bus at 3:30am to have coffee and we also got down to see the place. it was too cold outside and seeing the place we found we were in the hills somewhere in the western ghats. driver after getting himself refreshed he started the bus.


day 2
*****
at around 7am, myself and vaitheesh spellbound after seeing the awe-inspiring scenery.
sun was about to say goodmoring...
densely filled greeneries with short shrubs...
tall trees surrounds the virgin lake...
heavenly breeze kissing us very gently...
we then realized that we had entered into goa.

at 10am we reached panajim- the capital city.
the city is very less crowded,
shops are sparingly located,
there is no huge shopping malls,
roads are very narrow,
only cars, bikes and tourists buses are ruling the roads,
not frequently you could see the government buses,
in general i could say tourists are ruling the city.

pulzar our radham
*****************
before we ground our legs from the bus, we got surrounded by the local travel agents buzzing us "site seeing sir,rented car sir,rented bike sir...", after unloading the luggage from the bus,vaitheesh and me went to cancel murali's return ticket which is not a easy task where the tourism is the only revenue for the entire state, they charged us very heavily for the cancellation. meanwhile vinod,cks and rajesh were gone for hiring the bikes.arjun was guarding our luggage.

arjun is very calculative & shrewd. during school days he was a very good athlete, but lost his rhythm as he ages. he is working in cts chennai.

pulzar - definitely male was our ratham during our stay in goa. all the 3 had a tough time with the agent while hiring the bikes, they nagociated very well that we got the pulzar for rent rs.250/day/bike. we hired 3 bikes by paying the rent for 3 bikes 2 days along with the deposit of rs.1000. when we charged him to give the papers for the bikes he said that the police will not ask for the papers unless we have a valid licence. inspite of that valid licence if the police caught us then he asked us to give him a call, he will talk to the police. our adventurous ride started with the paperless bike ride along the costal line towards our booked guest house named kamath house.

it was 11:00am when we reached our guest house, 11/2 hours delayed as per our schedule. the owner of that kamath house was egarly awaiting us. we got a warm welcome. the kamath house was having a vast free space which is wonderfully crafted by the trees and plants. to our surprise the owner called arjun and handed over the bouquets and greeting cards to him. he received those gifts from his beloved one and lost himself in the disney land.

the scary house
**************
we all rushed to the rooms to answer the nature calls and geared up for that days. we had booked 2 rooms, 3 in each room. me, vaitheesh and cks stayed together and others in another room. at around 12:30pm we all moved out for the brunch. we were too hungry that we could not go and search for the good eat outs. we landed nearby restaurant named "the currey house". we all ordered for the biriyani (egg, chicken & veg) and fish fry. vaitheesh (pure veg) had ordered for some aloo curry. we found everything very tasty even the onion in the salad that shows our hungry. we had very less quantity of food which did not call for any digestion medicine but the server gave us one in the form of bill. after seeing the bill "the curry house" appeared us like "the scary house".

we then moved out to the fort aquada, which was very near from kamath house. it was a hilly ride for 4kms which took us 100 feet above the sea level. our eyes got stuck enjoying the serene beauty of the sea from the fort. we started to show our hidden personality like renowned cinematography pc.sriram and daring hero jackie jan.


at 3:30pm we started moving to the first beach named "baga" beach. which was 10km away from the fort. on the way to the beach we could see innumerous eat outs,every restaurant was having a bar facilities. we also crossed the goa's best night pub "titos". road towards that beach was dominated by the foreigners, seeing their beach dress we thought we ve reached the beach but we were wrong, still we had to cover 2kms. u can immagine how they roam arround the town and also u can immagine what a good time goans have everyday ;-)

baga beach
**********
narrow road ends and hell lot of cars,bikes were parked. we turned towards the beach and could see the heaven's manifestation on earth. the path was very well decorated by the red carpet which lead us to the paradise. beach was so lively that you could find the electrifying energy there, which stimulated us to go for the adventurous ride.

our brave journey started with the "banana ride", the name sounds funny but all it meant was that the shape of the inflated balloon. we had a very tough time to get into the position on that balloon. people with their masculine power try to claim the balloon which made others, seated on it, to lose the balance and the balloon got inverted. after the hard work all the 6 took positioned in that balloon and the boat started to move. we had covered a long distance from the shore and enthralled the riding espically during the cutting turns. on our way back to the shore, boater suddenly thought to check our fearlessness and inverted the boat. it was just 200feets away from the shore, we sunk. eventhough we wore the life jacket our instinct commanded us to fight the battle and win the banana back.ironically we lost the battle of winning the banana but we felt the sense of great achievement in our life.

we didn't let the energy to go dismay, we geared up for the another adventure called the scooter ride. we all might ve seen this ride in the movies, in doom-2 abhishak by his heroic ride attracts many hearts. but we were not allowed to do the same, driver accompanied us and drove the scooter. ride was so thrill that whenever the scooter takes off from the water for the short time, our heart came out and smiled in front of us. trill drive was ended in a flashing seconds.

with all gratification after the 2 enthralled rides, we started to play the football. there were so many made shift stalls where the foreigners got their staple drink, to attract them the stall owners laid many sunbathe beds in front of their stalls. which helped us in many ways ;-) . sun after its tyring day, settled in the west, making the way for the night beauty to cover the rest of the day. baga beach was having the same energy level even after the sunset, slowely the adventurous beach turned out to be the romantic one. we all cleared from the beach planning to visit the romantic beach with our betterhalfs.

flambee
*******
after the tyring day, we planned to have very good dinner, the scary house made us to search for the better place to have our dinner. our ill luck none of the restaurants accepted the credit cards (thank god we had enquired before we got in), also the atm was too far. on the way to the atm we found a special offer for the lobster, "lobster for half the price just 7 pounds". erasing the lobster offer from our mind we moved on to the restaurant called "flambee". our thirst for the good restaurant ends here in flambee. we ordered for the soup,veg roll, nan, fish tikka, aloo mutter,french fry and juices. parallely vinod,arjun and rajesh were trying their hands in hot drinks. vinod to the extreme ordered tequila shot and flaming dragon shot. we admire the server's skill while he prepared the flaming dragon shot. after winning the battle field we asked for the bill, the bill relieved us from the ghosts of the scary house. we ordered for the 3 french fries but they billed only for 1, we got the 2 for free because of our genuineness. we then went to our room and rested our back with daring dreams.

day 3 (sinquerim beach)
************************
vaitheesh woke up at 6:30am and brought me to the realty. we both tried all others to join with us to the nearest beach called "sinquerim" beach which was just 5min walkable distance from our room. only cks listened to us and said he would join us after 5min. me and vaitheesh without our knowledge accepted the god's gift (early morning breeze), and walked towards the beach. we crossed the "taj hotel aquada resort", which was located poeticaly in the hills of sinquerium beach.

the first scene which i saw and got shocked was the ship very near to the shore, if i was right in my assumption it was just 200 meters away from the shore, just immagine the depth of the sea. we were 20 feet above the sea and enjoying the beautiful blue coloured sea from the small fort. the aerial view of the fort resembled a static pendulum, where the bottom part was rooted in the sea. cks joined us and we 3 started to exhibit our photography skills. shore was so soft that moved us to show our diving skills. there came a deutscher with my small knowledge on deutsch i greeted him "guten tag" and we took some snaps with him. we rushed to the room to get ready, before the other 3 shout on us for the late.

ashwem beach
*************
at 10:30am all 6 of them had a lite break fast "pav bhajji" from the nearby dhaba and fuelled the bike from the nearest bunk. we then started the bike towards "ashwem" beach. ashwem was around 26kms away from our place. no one in our group knew the exact route, we all the way enquired the people and were on the move, around 12pm we reached the seldom visited beach. which stands for its calming beauty. young foreign babes taking sunbathe which was very common in the goa beachs, the sand was white in colour and the waves were not too hard. all these remindes my dreamland. we played the football for nearly 30min and got tired, after taking rest for few min we moved to play throw ball inside the sea. as usual we (me,arjun and vinod) outplayed the star batch team in both football and throw ball.

rajesh our manager mesmerised us telling that being a bachelor and in goa we should take one snap with the foreign babe with her bikini dress. our daring hero cks and vinod marched towards the 3 russian babes who were taking sunbathe. after 3 seconds cks and vinod retraced their path with faild attempt. we entered into the nearby stall for the lunch at 3pm, we ordered for the veg biriyani and prawn biriyani for vinod. they took nearly an 30 min to bring the biriyani, meantime we ordered for the orange juice, it was too good which made us to go for the another round.

vinod was not fully recovred from the last night hangover ordered for the 2 beers. we all completed our biriyani but vinod was still waiting for the prawn biriyani. finally server came and apologised that they could not get the prawns which triggered the vinod's angry, we tried to cool him and ordered for the chicken biriyani. human being will lose their control when ordering the lunch at 3pm and getting the response from the server that they could not meet the order after 30min.

we noticed that shooting was taking place in that beach, we moved but our ill luck actress "boomika" was not in the spot.it was a telugu movie.

cks with his braving act approached sweeden babe for the snap. she accepted his greeting and we got the lifetime snap with us now.

vagator beach
*************
at 4pm we started to the next beach called "morjim" beach, this beach was same as ashwem but only difference was the crowed. morjim was full of activities, but baga stands very high compare to the activities. hence morjim didn't attract us very much.


we then moved to the nearby "vagator" beach. this was a very attractive beach, full of rocks to the left of the cliff and pure and soft white sand to the right of the cliff. in another 10min sun would say goodbye to us and i was so eager to catch the unsung poem of the sun. i was so happy after freezing the beautiful sunset on my digicam. we played throw ball and enjoyed our stay in vagator.

night bazar
***********
around 7:30pm we left that place traced back to our room, on the way we got stuck in the heavy traffic, and noticed all the cars and bikes were directed to the saturday night bazar. we enquired the gatekeeper till what time the bazar would be open, he answered till 2am. that sounds very interesting to us. we then decided to come back here after the dinner. very quickly we got freshened up and moved to the buffet and had okie type dinner, first time i tasted squids. though the food was not that great we compensated with the savory pastry.

we then hurriedly covered the nearest beach "calangute". there were many warning boards,for bathing. then we moved to see the "tito's" night life. tito's didn't move us compared to the night bazar. after entering the night bazar we thought our decision was correct. it was very difficult to find the indian in that foreign dominated bazar. even many stalls were owned by the foreigners. my digicam ran out off battery which shouldn't have happened, but i consoled by saying myself god has gifted us with 2 real cameras, using which we can freeze the event in our mind. everything was too costly there, finally i could manage to buy a small gift for my beloved one. at 1:30am we left the place and rushed to our room to catch some sleep. the road near our room was filled with cars and bikes and could see some strange activities was going on to the left side of the road.

it was just a small place like volleyball ground where the people were crowed and buzzing like kayambedu market. on hearing the dies rolling sound we found it was a goa's casino. rajesh,arjun and vinod went there and shocked when people were throwing 500 rupees bundles. after 10 min they also came to the room and took rest.

day 4 (born again)
*****************

again we went to the nearby beach "sinquerim" this time all the 6 enjoyed the heavenly beauty. at 8am we went to the boater and booked the boat for seeing the dolphins. after tasting the inner sea during the banana ride, cks asked for the life jacket and said he wants to dive in the middle of the sea, he called me aswell. we were so happy that we were going to see the dolphins lively. we sailed quite a long distance and could hear the divine silence of the sea. we found the dolphins moving in a group, sound of the boat increases the distance with the dolphins. we then viewed the goa's central jail and 70 crores bungalow which looked like castle. cks with his pulse pounding asked the boater for the life jacket. boater then pointed the sunken ship which was carrying Mn. we had a tough time with him to go near that sunken ship, he charged 100 bucks extra for that extra ride.

after catching all the beauties cks asked the boater for the life jacket, coolly boater replied that he was not carrying the life jacket, if we needed to swim then we can dive and swim. his reply doomed me. cks and me backed off from that daring effort. boater was trying to encourage us to swim but our instinct stoped us from taking the risk. boater then took out the hard rubber round shapped tube, and asked us to dive and catch that tube.after the long dilemma cks with his bravery jumped out of the boat which impulsed me to do the same. i caught that tube after 4 seconds, i was literally dead for that 4 seconds and got my life back only after catching that life saving tube. after that cks and me were enjoying the swimming for 5 min and returned back to the boat. we added another feather in our adventurous list. before we reached the shore me and cks jumped again, this time without any life saviour and reached the shore. that was a thrilling experience i had in my life so far.

back to paradise
***************
after this trilling boating we went to the room quickely dressed-up up for the next beaches, we covered the "coco" beach and "anjuna" beach. but nothing moved us to spend our last few hours in goa. finally we moved to the paradise "baga" beach and stunned after seeing that the sea has eaten up shores, where we played football the very first day. though the sea got into the shore the sea level remained the same. we could go as far as we did in the first day, from where the shore looked very distant. we spend our final hours in the beautiful beach and played throw ball along with iranian friend.

time to say goodbye to goa
************************
at around 2pm we said good bye to the beach and quickly rushed to the room to refresh and to pack our luggages. time ticked more faster than the us and settled the room rent and rode the pulzar back to panajim, to catch my bus at 4:30pm. at 4pm we reached the boarding point, we had 30 min hand so me and vinod had a lunch and boarded the bus to hyderabad. all others had to go bangalore for whcich the bus was at 6pm. at 8:30pm we had a lite dinner in the belgum,then we reached hyderabad next day morning at 8:30am

it was monday and i had enrolled for the time management training on that day which was scheduled for 9:30am, i could make it only at 10:15am. then my routine life started with sweet memories.

exciting week ahead

Feb 13 2007, penning my first blog. initially i was too reluctant to use orkut & blog, thinking e-mail is more than sufficient for the online communication, but today i am totally impressed & fascinated towards these online resources.
orkut - the resource of relations (friends,relatives & communities) and
blog - the resource of individual experiences. using this relationships and shared experiences we can answer so many unanswered questions to the humankind.


this week we (my thanjavur friends) have planned for Goa trip, i am so euphoric that we are going to accomplish our longtime wish. when we were completing our final year course, we wished that once all of us in our group get placed then we should plan for Goa. god has accepted our wish and our plan got shaped up very well. though we planned this jaunt a month back i didn't get the ticket to Goa from Hyderabad. unfortunately there is only one bus from Hyderabad. there is a saying "whatever happens is for good" thats really true, because of this unavailability of the ticket from Hyderabad i am going to join with my friends in B'lore from where we all are going to Goa. i am so thrilled excited pulse-pounding about our trip. i will update u all about the much accomplished jaunt.
