The Web Design Gang at TI

Hi People

Yeah, Sorry for no blogs last couple of days, had to do a lil catching up after the Ganesh break. Took the time to touch up some of our clients sites. 

Well September 11 is back again. Ever since the WTC, 9/11 has been a real eventful day ever since. In 2002, September 11, my Grandmother passed away while we were in London at my sister’s place on a holiday. We got the news early in the morning in London, and everyone in unison said, OF All The days in the year, she chose that day. Being in London that time, we could not make it for the funeral. As it was the first anniversary of 9/11, the mourning still continued and you could feel the sorrow, 1 year later.

September 2003, i think it was at the time, i submitted my resignation from my job at NIIT, to set up Team Inertia. Being at NIIT, taught me a few things, Quality and its actual meaning, Teamwork, which is the basis of any organisation like ours, and of course comradrey. Have wonderful memories of the place, but more importantly i made some of my best and special friends there.

September 11 , 2004, I was doing something that i dont do quite often in recent days, COMPERING! NIIT had organised an ALL GOA SOLO SINGING COMPETITION, a kinda spoof of American Idol. Well my first reaction when i heard they were doing the show, was ARE U CRAZY??!??! But since they had already made up their minds, had to be there for them. Well i had fun that day, I’m kinda a Stage HOG, so i love being a solo compere, and with a cordless mic, the adrenalin rush of interacting with the crowd is huge. Yea, thats a lil wild side of Vernon, who very few people have seen off, until that day.

September 11, 2005, Well Today is Alfy’s Baba JOEL’s Christening, and usually they have a mass on this occassion since they are very very devout family and have more than 3 priests in the family. It was a nice simple occassion, a gathering of friends, relatives and loved ones. The trips to Calvim are quite pleasant as the island and the roads that lead to it, are always lush green and the paddy swaying in the tranquil breeze is a joy to see.

Well, its back to business tomorrow, Nilesh brought a wonderful tool to work on our UML, which is very essential now for us, as our projects grow bigger everyday. Also have to manage our resources efficiently and optimally, never compromising on quality and customer delight.

Today, is the last day of Ganesh, so there gonna be a total lack of sleep. I hate it when people break the cracker into its singles and light each one, its such a pain. I remember 1 year bcoz of that, we slept thru an earthquake.

Well Bye Folks
