மகிழ்மாறன் ஸ்கூல் போகப்போறான்!
மகிழ்மாறனுக்காக நானும் ப்ரியாவும் Montessori ஸ்கூல் தேடத்தொடங்கினோம்.
எங்களின் முதல் குறிக்கோள் : விரைவில் மகிழ் ஸ்கூல் செல்லவேண்டும் என்பதே. அதற்காக MidYear Schools ஏதாவது கிடைக்குமா என்று Framingham Ashland மற்றும் பல நகரங்களில் தேடினோம். கடைசியாக Christian Montessori (Holliston MA) எங்களுக்கு கை கொடுத்தது.
செப்டம்பர் வரை மகிழ் ஒரு Preschool சென்றுவிட்டு இந்த Schooluku செல்லலாம்.

Starting Varavaramuni Sambandhis
June 8th was very special to me. It was the date in which 8 like minded people got to gether, thought the missing link in Sath Sampradaya to uphold the ideals of 13th Century acharya ManavalaMaamunigal who is the Last Poorvacharya of Sath Sampradaya and Acharyan of Namperumal.
We created varavaramuni sambandhis, group that stands with 178 odd participants across globe all devoted to the energy of Sath Sampradayam.
After that, it was VarthaMalai one day per word which tries to bring out Poorvacharyas (The Acharyas of Sri vaishnava Sampradayam starting from Sriman Narayana (PeriyaPerumal) and ending with Manavala Maamunigal) words that could enlighten souls.
Sep 8th is the DDay, for me to start to US
Have to see how life is going to be in US after 8 months of India Stay

At last @ US
Its been 1 year since I posted, (Mar 2007) was the final time, my blog wore a new look.
Post March 2007, when I completed Cingular Forms & Collaterals Project (@ Sapient), I was nominated for 2 projects. One @ UK (For a financial Client), and another for a diet & fitness Client, eDiets.
ATG was entering my life. I got trained in ATG by Mr.Srinivasan (Vamsoft Tech Chennai) From june 8th till June 15th. Then on, we were travelling towards the black hole in our Software Galaxy. Naga, Myself, Pavan, Siddarth, Bindya travelled to Chennai. I also had my wife Priya with me.
5 days of training resulted in an eye opener for all of us in ATG. After the training, Amma, Priya and myself went to Srirangam. On Return, June 2007 end, eDiets got kicked off.
After terrible planning, we started facing continuous schedule slippages. The first famous Software Story we built using ATG was Forget Password Story.
Then on till Oct 07, it was a jam packed 3 week release with a team of 16 mostly fresh to ATG and in specific fresh to J2EE. Naga, also known as The ATG God, The Naga was a driving force in the project.
By Feb 08, we had already sailed rough weather and our project went live.
During the months of June 07, Priya and I were blessed with MM. MM started to grow inside Priya and happiness grew inside both of us.
Chinmaya Mission Hospital was the pivotal health clinic on CMH Road Bangalore. I think, its the doctor Mrs. Nambiar who took a great care of Priya.
The unforgettable anxious moments of August 07 which declared that Priya is for sure going to be a Mom and I getting promoted to level of Dad were ecstasy filled.
Finally, the days of Srijayanthi were also filled with Joy @ 105 Kalpanas paradise where we enjoyed amma's delicious dishes.
For even, the moment of Diwali During November 07 was fun filled as, all of my brothers, Murali Anna, Raju Anna, Srinidhi came to our home.
In each of the occasions, my Maamanar and Krishna used to come on time for festivals and make our gathering even more happier.
It was during the month of September 07 when Amma wanted to go to Krishna Anuyatra. Amma left for that. It was 27 days in total. She was accompanied by all of my Periyammas and maamis.
During that time, Priya's Mom came over to Bangalore, had a very good time and we were going to our relative's places. Finally it was Andal Paati who stayed with us for 1 month @ Bangalore and made our place so energetic.
During month of December (27th), Priya along with Me and Amma left for Srgm. It was for the delivery time. For 2 months till Jan 31, I had to spend life in isolation. Tough time.
Feb 11 08 marked the day when Priya gave birth to Magizhmaaran. Saturday night onwards (Feb 10) She developed pain and finally she has to be operated for MM to firm foot on this world.
In the meantime by Oct 07 I got my H1b Papers through Infowave and I had decided to go for stamping on Dec 07. Dec 19 07 I got stamped. The stamping was a big fun though. I went to Venkatesan chittapa's place where I firm footed my career and life. From there, I got blessed and got my H1b Stamped.
Reaching Sapient, I got my papers ready and waited for MM's birth. After returning back on Feb 25th 08, I resigned from Sapient on March 4th. From then on March 19th I got relieved.
Apr 08 08 was the day I was prepared to Fly. Having a heavy heart I left Srgm on Apr 07 08. Apr 05 08 was my first wedding Anniversary and it was a Amma vasai. I had blessings from Amma Appa and all perumal.
Leaving to US was not so easy as I have to mentally prepare myself for all hurdles. That too without a long term job in hand. I reached US on Apr 08 08. San Jose was my destination. Karthik, my best friend and my Maapilai were eager to receive me @ San Jose Airport. Unfortunately due to bad weather, I got my flight directed towards SFO From Chicago.
Life went on. I joined BPA Inc and its still going on. Lets meet after some time. Penning down all my experiencecs as of 17 Jun 08

Trip to Mysore - Brindavan Gardens, KRS DAM (Krishna Raja Sahar Dam)

Sunday Nov 12 2006- 12:45 P.M to 1:20 P.M Travel to Mysore - 1:20 P.M to 3:00 P.M Graha Pravesam
Sunday Nov 12 2006- 4:40 P.M Brindavan Gardens:
After a tough journey along the mysore road towards Krishna Raja Sagar DAM, we reached the Brindavan Gardens. A spectacular garden constructed by Vishvesharaya during early 20th century.
Tall Man @ Brindavan Gardens:
We gathered as a group and took a snap with a tall man standing at entrance. He charges per click 10 rupees. U see he can stretch his hands beyond boundaries. The Brindavan Gardens was awesome with various types of trees. The intresting thing is, there is a step down fountain which is constructed in descending order. By natural gravitational force water flows from top to bottom. A must to see place.


The Krishna Raja Sagar Dam was ultimate bench mark for team effort and engineering of our indians. The dam is 120 feet tall with a massive outstrech of close to 1/2 a kilometer wide. Behind it lies the great River Cauvery. Which appears like Sea. U see me, Thiru and couple of his friends over here.
Solo Image:
As a age old custom, I requested thiru's friend Ameen to shoot a snap of me. Me alone. With Cauvery as Backdrop. It was intresting to note that, due to security reasons, only 10 feet wide gap is allowed as visitors area in DAM. Rest is locked up.
The night we had a light fountain show @ brindavan gardens and packed off our luggages back to home. After some break for dinner (myself and thiru had some bhel poori and corn) and buttermilk, we reached Bangalore @ late night 1:00 A.M doing the cab service for all the folks in the van.
Trip to Mysore - RanganaThittu Explored



Sunday Nov 12 2006 9:00 A.M - RanganaThittu - The Bird Sanctuary:
The Travel from Mysore Highway broke its course to a bird sanctuary called RanganaThittu. Rangana - Variety of Colors; Thittu - A small Island. We entered the sanctuary by paying 250 rupees in a whole against 350 rupees (in white per head 25 rupees) for 15 people. The RanganaThittu was a beautiful spot in the mind of people.
The group of people in Boat:

Myself in red tshirt, with Thiru looking back (Man with Blue Cap and Blue jean.) Left to Thiru is Ambedkar staring at the lake. This lake tour costs 40 bugs and it shows you across the small island for 20 minutes. We saw lot of cross continental birds. A very worthy place to see. To remember the place A worth place to look.

A group Photo @ RanganaThittu:
Along with Thiru and co, We took a group photo. Near me sits Ambedkar a man full of energy on the whole trip.

I took a solo snap here. This place is a garden and its very greeny in nature.
