At last,
Guys, for the past one and half week i was eager to this day. At last the post release i was working got released, though it was not as smoot sailign as i would have wanted it to be. Anyways the hard work paid off and the version has been released successfully. I also got an extra mile award for this release for the amount of work i put in.
But i believe this extra mile award is just a management funda and every one on the team will get this at some point. Anyways keeping with the tradition i would be sharing this for a booze treat probably with my colleagues.
Now last week i watched quite a number of movies though none in a theater. I had watched Wanted, nice one, Art of the war not at all good, the last one was much better. I had also watched Under suspicion and other movies.
Movies lined for this week Mummy mostly on monday and Felon downloaded today. I had watched snatch at last. The movie had a bad begining and good ending.
My patience was tested well too, i mean i chat with this person almost daily and i tease her a lot. Well she can only tease me one thing which was being me going offline very regularly. But how on earth should i make her understand that if i ever were busy i would just tell it straight. Whenever my computer gets restarted i go offline and by the time i come again she says if you are busy you should say so. Tired off explaining that i was not busy, i said i was and i would chat later. I mean well give me a break, i know i would not like to be teased and you pulled my leg using the same thing for god knows how many times.
Anyways, i understand now why people get pissed off with me. I tease them using the same thign so many times. But it still does not mean i am going to change. i am incorrigble in this matter i believe.
Thats the update for this week. Lets hope i write my next blog sooon too

general rumblings
Dear readers..
Welll i know there are not many, but still when i read this i become my own reader right.. so.. well i took another one month gap looks like to blog agian. Last one month i was workin on the post release of my last project. It was tough and i was going all nuts.. I realise two things as a part of this, one that says all that looks rosy is not rosy. The other being putting too much energy in one day may leave you with a lot less to offer the next day. Instead a calculative and consistent effort would probably be better. I learnt both these lessons the hard way during this time.
I do not know what Snapshots from hell was supposed to thought, but it did teach me one thing, that people should carryon with whatever tasks they have in hand. I mean one day during my previous release i was working on this terrific feature which i liked a lot, Style Size Color feature about which i had already written a blog on. Now i was really frustrated when i came back home and was worried the work on the feature was not going anywhere. Coming back home i read this book and the chapter that i was reading was telling on how the main character peter robinson i believe was having tough time in his college. He was sapped of his total energy and he was sleeping probably for about 10 hours a week. I realised how fortunate i was compared to him. I was getting around 5 hrs of sleep daily and that i did not have to keep this up for not more than one month, i was sure. So this gave me so much more confidence.
My work for the next 15 days was totally different. I was confident i would complete this and that i would do a good job at the end of the day. I should be thankful to my manager who did give me a lot of insights and was the main potent force for my confidence.
Anyways like i told in the begining this post is not about any one point but anything in particular. well so now coming back to the presnt, the feature and the code i was working was too much in a bad shape. it took a lot of regressions and bugs to bring it to the state where it was clean and function well again. I can be sure now that the code was clean anyways now. I have even learnt putting comments these days.
Well anyways thnx to blogspot my blog so far was saved. I will come back to blogging again. Today i was watching trapped and Bandidas movie. I might watch another before sleeping
