    Last Day @ KalSoft

    Today was my last day at work. I started working at Kalsoft in May last year and the last 14 months have had its fair share of ups and downs. It was a unique experience working there and I think I learned a lot. Apart from that the money was good and I enjoyed spending it but now I see that I wont be earning till my MBA ends, I regret not saving a sizeable amount.
     
    Anyways the day didnt start as usual, we had a heavy downpour of rain yesterday and early morning and new heights were set. The underpass that our Government takes pride in development set a new world record when it completely submerged in water...hehe... I regularly take that way to work but today I had to choose a different route and getting to office didnt seem to be a problem it was getting back home... I was supposed to be at work by 10 as the CMMI L3 audit was scheduled for my project and I was half an hour late (hey I had a valid reason and so did everyone else) During lunch a few of my collegues forced yes forced me to treat them and I was left with another guy (who by the way is also leaving) and we had to treat them to lunch at Pizza Hut. I also had an Exit Interview scheduled for 15:00 and it went okay. Once all that was done I said my good byes to everyone, collected the Expereince letter and started one hell of a trip back home. It rained heavily during the day and had already been told that therez knee high water near my place. I didnt come across much water on the way however it all changed when I was within 5 minutes walk from my place. THe underpass that was completely submerged and the road going towards Teen Talwaar was filled with knee high water and I still dont know how I managed to drive my way through that much water. All eventualities came to an end and I was safely parked at home.

    Superman Returns and a waste of 2.5 hours

    last night I saw the new Superman Movie: Superman Returns.. I usually wait for the good print to come out before I actually see it but in this case it was different as Iv been waiting to watch this movie for sometime now and as soon as I saw the movie at the movie shop nearby I decided to get it even though it was a Cinema Print. I sat down at around 1am last night and wasted around 2 and a half hours of my precious life watching the stupid movie... The entire story line sucks and the movie as a whole... I just want more and more ppl. to watch it and curse the asshole who came up with the story and the others arses at Warner Brothers who approved it in the first place... Im not going to tell u why the movie sucks, I want u all to watch it and tell me  why u think that movie sucks...
     
    Brandon Roth, the guy who played Superman played it okay but he could have played it better especially the Clark Kent part (not that there was much of it in it)... I fell that Tom Wellings from Smallville would have made a much better Superman but sacrifices need to be made if Smallville had to continue and with him playing Superman, Smallville wouldnt have been the same... The babe who played Lois Lane didnt had that Lois Lane thing in her... and dont get me started on Lex Luthor (Kevin Spacey) what the hell was he thinking, has he even read the Superman comics or not? Frankly speaking for an evil powerful, billionare dude Kevin Spacey made Lex Luthor look stupid and the way he acted...a guy with no acting experience would have acted better than he did...
     
    A Pathetic movie and I know people will simply watch it cause "hey its Superman..." well lets hope the other 2 movies in line have a better story though I would prefer if they started from the begining and do not continue where this one ended cause no matter what u do, u can not ignore the stupid things theyv added to this story line...

    All Hail Rafa

    finally a dream show down between Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal is about to happen. Federer is a damn good tennis player but I beleive he is over credited cause personally I feel there is no competition out there or atleast there arent as good players as there used to be a decade ago.
     
    Roger Federer currently hold 3 grand slam titles and has lost to anyone this season besides Rafael Nadal but most of them were on clay and Nadal is the best player on clay there is... most ppl didnt even thought that the number 2 seed would make it to the final of Wimbledon as they regarded him to be a purely clay player but he has silenced all of them up. I just want Nadal to win and I beleive he can do that... Federer needs to cry a little, I dont like him cause hez damn arrogant / proud and a sour looser (just see his face and the way he acts when hez loosing or havig a tough game).
     
    Rafa is getting better and better and Im turning into a bigger fan of his... I kinda lost interest in watching tennis since Sampras retired and when the dominant days of Federer started, there simply was no point watching as u knew who the eventual champion would be...but then steps in Rafa and teaches him a lesson, hez not the best yet until he beats Rafa... go Rafa...Vamos Rafa
