Placement heat at IIITB
Well.. I am out of this heat as I got an offer form Kodiak Networks.. I joined as intern at Kodiak Networks and I am absorbed by them. The question that is in all my friends is whether to go with a start up or not.. Each has his own opion.. I think there is a risk associated with anything you do and its upto you to decide whether you want to play safe and wait for the big companies or take risk.. The list of start ups that are visting our campus are Redbus, Perfint, Yos, ReadiMinds, Outdu, 8kMiles, Tyfone,Mango Technologies, Perfint, Mobisy.
My journey with Kodiak
Urrfff... finally I get the offer letter from Kodiak Networks.. Now I am no more an intern at Kodiak.. I am an employee at Kodiak Networks.. :).. Well, the only day when we get to know that we are interns is at the time we get our salary credited. We are always treated as employees.. we are invited for team lunch and team outings. I must say we had lot of fun at work during our internship.. All of us enjoyed our work and the people at Kodiak are friendly and down to earth. Except for the first 1 month the rest of the days I had work to do.. Initially, I just had to get myself familiar with j2me and flash.. Meanwhile our team were working on the design. Once we got started with the project there is no looking back.. At the time of internship we were told that we would get lot of work to do.. and Kodiak lived up to its promise.. we were kept busy daily during our internship .and I hope we would get to do more work in coming days..
I got to learn a lot during my internship.. I initially had to implement a generic sort. I knew some design patters but never seen them in action.. Here I got the answer for why and when to use them.. I got myself familiar with some design patterns.. Factory, Observer, Singleton..

Sudheer's Engagement..
Drafted this post long back.. sorry for the delay.. I think its better late than never.. :)
One of the reason for me leaving to hyd on April 3oth was to attend one of my best buddies engagment..Well it was Manik a.k.a Sudheer's engagement. Sudheer got engaged to Ramya. He and Ramya were B.Tech classmates and know each other well. I have been living with sudheer for the past two years and know him closely.. I must say Ramya is one of the lukiest girls in this world. Its very difficult to find a person of nature of sudheer.
Intially Jadoo said that he would be coming a little late as he had some work to do. So I and Ranga decided to go on bike. However,later Jadoo told that he would come along with us. Then ranga told that he would meet us at reception..I and Jadoo left to reception.. Parbodh , Rapaka, Raghuram and Seema joined us.. They came to hyd on the same day of the reception.
We had our lunch.. Lunch was very good. Later me along with Praveen, Chandu and Prabodh went to Jalsa again..
Later in the evening me along with the my B.Tech friend Prasanna kumar went to Kiran house.. There we talked about our college days.. We continuously laughed for around 1 hr thinking about the naughty things we used to do in SNIST.. Later in the night we went to Bawarchi to have dinner.. We had chicken biryani.. As usual Biryani tasted good.. Later that night Prasanna and i left to vanasthalipuram. My friend dropped at the guest house were my iiitb friends were staying..
The next day morning left to my house. It was time for the return journey. Within a blink of eye four days had passed.. Good thing was that we can now escape the hot weather in hyd :).. however the sad part is that I have to leave home..:(.. We had our return bus to Bangalore at 4.30PM.. I reached bus stand at 4.00. By the time I reached MGBS Chandu and Dileep were waiting.. Later Ravikanth and Co arrived.. They had their bus at 5.00 PM . We reached Bangalore at round 6 in the morning. Got myself ready and me and praveen left to office.

Trip to Hyd.. May 30th
Well sorry for posting this late.. Drafted it long back but forgot to post.. finally posted :)
It has been long since I had been to hyd. I was busy with my intership. April last week I went to hyd.. Thanks to Sudheer engagement. one of my best buddies. Also one of my best buddy Ravindra's brother marraige. I started to hyd along with my friends at iiitb on sat May 30th.. We had to catch the train at 4.30 PM at Yaswanthpur.. We started at around 12.30.. We got a direct cab to Majestic. We had to go to majestic to cancel some tickets.. as Prabodh, Srinidhi and Chandru had some work.. we had to cancel their tickets.. Then we left to Yaswanthpur by Auto.. We reached there at around 3.45 PM.. Anna and rest arrived at the station ahead of us..
So all of us reached station well ahead of the scheduled departure time.. In the journey to kill time we played cards.. Least count and bluff.. We reached Kacheguda station at 5 AM.. My home is very near to kachaeguda.. It just takes around 10 mins if one goes by walk..
At station we decided to have lunch in Paradise.. I went home and refreshed myself and went to bed.. I felt asleep and at around 10 Shanki called me up and told that there was a change in plan and asked me to come to lakdikapool at 10.30.. By this time I was in deep sleep and told that it is not possbile for me to come.. and asked them to go ahead and that i would join them in the evening.. at around 12 Shanki called me again.. and told me to come to Paradise.. However, at the same time i was having my lunch.. Told them to go ahead.
Later, shanki called me at around 3PM. They came to pick me up. so that we could attend Ravindra's Brother marriage.. However, I had to visit a hari saloon to get my hair cut. One question my mother always asks me when I go to hyd is Don't you find any Hair Saloons in Bangalore? :).. I had to get my hair cut.. Meanwhile shanki and co told me that they would go to Dilshuknagar and get another car.. Nareen recently bought Swift.. they said they would get that.. so that all of us can go..
By the time Nareen and co came back.. I was ready.. We left to Lumbini Park.. me along with Jadoo, Dieep, vijay went for a speed boat ride.. The ride was too good.. Had good time at lumbini Park.. After that we left to Ravindras house.. It was around 5.45.. Nareen, Shanki, Ravikanth wanted to go to their respective houses and get themselves refreshed.. Shanki asked me to accompany them.. so i left along with them to Bhel.. It took around 1hr from Ravidra's house.. The environment in and around bhel is cool.. I and ravikanth went to shankis house..Later Nareen and Rakesh came to shanki house.. Later we left to Nareen house so that we can park one vechile there and leave in one car as we were 5 in number one was sufficient for us..
We left to Kukatpally.. Mallikarjuna function hall.. On the way we planned to watch a movie.. Jalsa..As the marriage was at 3am we thought of going to second show.. Movie theatre was next to function hall.. Sudheer and Chandu joined us.. We went to the theatre to book tickets.. We were suprised to see a huge line.. We had to stand in a long queue. Since each person would be given only 2 tickets five of us stood in line.. We had to wait a long time for our turn to take tickets.. Finally we managed to get 12 tickets. to the delight of everybody.. We returned to function hall and had our dinner..
Dinner was good.. After dinner we went to watch the movie..Half way thru the first half i was feeling sleepy and in the second half i was out.. felt asleep.. :).. one of my friends woke me up when movie was over
We went to function hall.. I was feeling sleepy and slept on the chair for a while.. later we were served tea in the night infact mid night.... Tea refereshed me.. I was not feeling sleepy.. at around 3.30 we left to ravindras house.. In the morning we had our breakfast and dispersed to our homes..
