Watching Kung Fu Panda Alone

Yesterday was the last day Kung Fu Panda was screening in MC and I decided to put a half day leave and go watch it. It turned out to be a wise move because the 7PM show was fully booked.Until about 7PM yesterday this was not how it was supposed to be. The plan was to meet the GF at 9 in Kolptty , Have breakfast , Go watch Kung Fu Panda , Have lunch , watch Hancock in Savoy ( I have seeing it but she hasn't watched it yet ) and go home. But all those plans changed , what did I do ? I forgot to inquire my GF why she was late when she didn't send the usual SMS saying she was home :( .
Why girls always picks on those small stuff is a mystery to me , For my sake I hope not all girls are like that , In any case the relationship doesn't seem to work , Things that seems trivial to me is a big deal for her and more often than not it lead to confustion and dissapointment. I still love her but I guess you need more than love to keep a relationship going :-) .
Watching movies alone is never enjoyable and even more so when your in a bad mood , but since this was the last day I had no choice so I went to watch it yesterday. I'm no expert on graphice but I have to say the graphics in this movie were great. The story line was kind of predictable but it had enough funny scenes to make me laugh and enjoy the movie. So its fair to say I walked out of the cinema in a fairly good mood. And it got that much better when I found that computer guy had brought the new PC to our house. Guess its not such a bad day after all :-)

IFS confirmation treat

Well finally we gave our confirmation treat , We have being in IFS for four and a half years but the first four years were spent as trainee students , so we only got our permanent employee status at the begining of this year. The treat was a grand affair , around 600 people were invited to the event and by the end of it the hands were aching from all the handshakes. Since we were there for around four years every one was expecting a grand treat so we decided to give a big Mac , Cornetto and drinks.
Sukitha was in charge of organizing and he did a good job organizing it. Guess he learned a lot from managing us in the last year project :) . In the end there were some left overs and I think I had two big Macs and around four Cornettos.
I guess one person that I would have liked to come for the treat is my former PM Chintha , she migrated to Australia and she was very helpful and understanding when I first started here at IFS

English is Pretty Confusing

Attended a Toast Master Club meeting today ,this was the third time I participated in the meeting and it was kind of fun. A very nice lady gave a presentation and if you follow it closely you can understand why people find it hard to learn english. I do have a fair understanding of English but the difference meaning given to different words according to the pronounciation was facinating to say the least. All in all I think I like the idea behing the Toast Master Club

Sports Day Around the Corner

Well its the sports day of our office on the coming Sunday.With the company growing to around 700 Employees we are having very few events for the whole company,Annual IFS night and the sports day being the only two occasions where the whole company get together.The sports day is held after 3 years and unfortunately participation isn't that high.There are four teams and surprisingly I'm the leader of one :).
Well its not something that I was hoping for but somehow or the other I became the leader.Luckily I got a great team to co-ordinate with other so the things should go according to plan.With 150 in a group I guess its a bit surprising that it was hard to find 7 gals for netball , I guess sports isn't a girl thing. Other than finding girls everything seems to be going fine so and the draw for events were also a bit favorable for our team.With a bit of luck we could be the champions :).
Tomorrow we are preparing the decorations for the tents and finalizing the details of the Mascot , One of our group members Shifana did a great job of creating the Mascot so we might win the Mascot event as well.

IPL is giving me headaches

I'm sure most of you are watching IPL , but aren't you all a bit confused about who to support ? When its Mumbai Indians vs most other teams I support Mumbai Indians because Sanath is on there side.Same when Murali is playing for Super Kings and when Sanga and Mahela play for Kings XI. Problem comes when Mumbai plays against Punjab or something similar like Chennai super kings against Punjab. Finally I decided I will support Kings XI punjab. They got two Sri Lankan players , has a great batting line up , a more than decent bowling line up , fields very well and best of all they got Preity Zinta :) , Thats one cheer leader you can't find everywhere in the world.
