My Observations of Life

Getting Married!!! Its one of the most beautiful things that can ever happen to someone. But something perceived beautiful by everyone has its own shortcomings!! Hey, Come on.. Am not going to advice U or write the same old, boring things that U have heard of marriage like "loss of freedom", "choice less" etc., etc., This post would just make U "Think before U Decide".  Also, this post is most likely to portray a girl's perspective of the topic (Natural! :) ) though some of them could be applicable to men too. Hmmmm... Where to start it from... Ok... Am single.. I work, I earn, I spend, I enjoy, I decide on: what to do with my money, how to lead my career and life. Maximum people I have in my life now are Mom, Dad, Grand parents, Sister / Brother and Friends. (Hey reader, U think BF or GF is missing in the list of relations?? But hey, we are talking about "singles" here, "literally") These people are very close to...

I know, I am writing this post after a long long... time... Believe it or not, I have started 4 posts in a MS Word document and deleted it later as the continuity was lost in time.. "Commitments and Family".. :) Anyways, here I am back with more enthusiasm and force to my dear blog.. :) I promise that I would write regularly from now on.. :) You can expect posts in the days to come on the following topics: 1) Alternate jobs for software professionals?? 2) Right time to get married.. :) So, with that promise.. This is Sowmy signing off from my blog... See U VERY soon... :)

OMG!!! What a shock this movie gave me!!! The impact was such that after the film was over and when we were having dinner, I was asking Guru, "Rendu bus um epdi ore side la vandhuchu??" and he was telling, "Accident panama irundhirukka mudium".. :) The director, Saravanan has depicted 4 different characters, without a bit of exaggeration. Appreciable fact is, it does not seem too much for a single movie. Two couple - timid girl & self dependent boy (Ananya and Shravanand), timid boy & self dependent girl (Jai and Anjali). The thought is "Oh another love story.. " But wait, the director has a shock for you in the very first scene!!! From there the story goes backwards to the timid girl pair. The girl, from Trichy, comes to Chennai for the first time to attend an interview in a software company and the hero just helps her as a stranger. The sister who is supposed to receive the heroine goes to Kanchipuram on an emergency. The girl is so sh...

Happend to read some articles about Facebook Vs. Google+. Discussions like which of the two: is user-friendly, has more number of users, has attractive features etc., My opinion is that whichever site one used for the first time for social networking continues to be his / her favourite till the end. No matter how many ever such sites come up, first one is the best one for most. I have heard some of my colleagues say Orkut is much better (!!!!!!) than Facebook and easier to use (!!!!!!!). Atleast, I don't feel Orkut is user friendly. I prefer Facebook. Some others say Google+ is the best. Reason, the colleague started with Orkut, me with Facebook and others with Google+. So you see, first is the best. :) If we ask the previous generation they would say "Why a hype about what social networking site you use??!!!!". It is because, Social networking has become our "Social Living". :) Yes, the truth, that. Imagine with whatever time we are left out with...

This post contains some "suyapuranam". Hee hee. After all it is my blog. :) This is about my Username. "Sowmy Haasini". This was "coined" by me when my parents bought a laptop for me when I was doing ME. I had to give a name to my laptop. I was thinking and thinking. Then I got this name "Sowmy". This was formed by "concatenating" the first three characters of my name wiht the last two characters of my boy friend's (now my sweet hubby) name. SOWbhagya + gurusaMY = Sowmy. So, my laptop was named Sowmy'sLap. My mom and Dad may be furious on this. "I bought the laptop and u give ur boy friend's name to it. :) Sorry mom, sorry dad. :) Hope U both would agree that "It Happens" as Karthick always says. :) Sometime later I started using FB. I needed a Username for that. I decided to use "Sowmy". But, so sad... It was already taken. :( I did not like to add any numbers in my Username. So...

Here I am blogging. Thanks to  singer Chinmayi  for the inspiration. :) I have linked Chinmayi's blog here. Hope she does not mind.. :) I guess this will be a very good alternate whenever I get bored of Facebook and Twitter and of course, my work. :) I joined my company on a Thursday, 15th. I have also started my blog on a 15th, Thursday. That rings a bell. :) Oh, I just notice that I have :) ed at the end of each line. That is wat I am - I like to smile - A lots. :) So this is Sowmy - working for IBM - married to Gurusamy - leading a "2 software engineers get married and the rest is left to their companies" life. :) I am the kind of a person who doesnt like what I do and want a change. :) Though my "Developer" position was my childhood dream come true. Hahaha that is me. All said, my husband is on the way back home. Have to rush to make something to eat. "Wife". :) Bye for now my dear blog (U have become dear to me in a lesser time). ...
