First Day at Kodiak Networks

Last Monday i.e July 7th was my joining date at Kodiak Networks. Well, I am not new to Kodiak Networks. I actually joined Kodiak Networks in Jan 2008 as an intern. Our internship was for a duration of 6 months. I was happy with the work at Kodiak Networks and most importantly Kodiak was happy with my performance during the past 6 months and they offered me the job. End of Intership meant that it was end of my course work at IIITB. Its very hard for me leave my college IIITB. But then its time to move on.. This marked the ending of the most happiest days of my life and begining of the most purposeful days of my life.. Straight away my manager had some work for me. I had to troubleshoot some issues. This kept me busy during the day. I left to my room at around 6.30PM..

Trip to Hyderabad

Since my joining date was july 7th.. I had a one week break. So I thought of finishing all the formalities at my College and then leave to hyd.. I was eager to go home.. Its has been 2 months since I visited hyd. One of my iiitb friend Raj said he would also like to come to hyd.. so I asked him to book the tickets..As we are done with our course work.. we were told to leave the campus by july 30th.. so we also had to find a room and shift the luggage. I along with Prabodh and Chandu were on the hunt for a 2BHK near Domlur.. After looking at around 4 flats we decided to go with the one near kemp fort. We gave the owner advance and said that we would come on july 30th.. We shifted the luggage from IIITB to room on 30th of july. I slept in the room on the 30th and in the morning left to college. I had to pay the remaining amount that was due. With the that I finished all the formalities. In the evening thought of returning to the college. However it was clody, so stayed in the campus. Next day put my luggage in my room in the evening. It started raining heavily mid way thru the journey to my room. As soon as I got down it started pouring down heavily. I took an auto and reached the room. It was already 8 and we had our bus to hyd at 9.15. Got myself ready and went to Raj's room. Their room is very close to ours. From there both of us went of indiranagar. the place we had to catch the bus to hyd. We reached hyd the next day morning at around 8 am.

The next couple of days I met my B.Tech Friends. We went to Gandipet.. There was not much water. The water level came down drastically. It was cloudy and the atmosphere was very good. We stayed there and enjoyed the weather. We had our lunch in the near by Dhaba. Food was good. Then we got back to our respective homes. Overall had a very good time in hyd. Partied hard. Had a good time in Hyderabad..

Trip to BIA..

It was time for Ranga to leave iiitb and take a flight to Germany.. All of us were very happy for Ranga.. He worked hard during his internship and he could see the results immediately.. However on the other side we were litte unhappy as Ranga was leaving us.. All of us were together for the past 2 years. Almost everyday we used to go out for breakfast, lunch, tea and dinner together.

It was also our last day at IIITB.. We had to vacate our rooms by july 1st.. So all of us packed our luggage. Ranga booked a cab to airport. We left the campus at 6.30 PM.. First we left to our new room. We kept some our belongings in our room. Then we went to hyderabadi house at kemp fort. Biryani tasted good. It struct 9PM. Ranga had his flight at 2 am. We had our plan to reach airport by 11 PM. We wer on target. We started at round 9.15PM from kemp fort to the new BIA.. All of us enjoyed our journey. At around 11 we reached the airport.

The road to airport was good and the traffic was not heavy.. However, all of us felt that it was too far from the city.. I think people would prefer rail and bus for places like Hyderabad and Chennai rather than flights. The journey to and from airport itself would be more than what one travels thru flight to reache hyderabad and chennai. We roamed around the airport for few mins.. After around 1 hr we started our return journey.. Myself and chandu stayed in the new room. Prabodh and Praveen left to campus.
