Mecca of Sports

Yes people ,I have moved to melbourne couple of months back ( I know some of u might be cursing my luck and some of u might be wondering what on earth is this guy doing there ).But for me I just slowly started loving it .

As soon as I moved here ,There was something called a flemington race dubbed as the race which stops the nation .I think it does , I mean the people on the road , the way they dress to that race ,to the betting and the actual prize money.. to the eupohoria surrounding that race oooh this is something else .I never knew bunch of horses running around could cause such a phenomena .

Next it was boxing day and this time around it was  the Indian team against the Aussies and  like a billion other people i thought this is the time India can win a series in Australia . result I think we all know and as a true Indian cricket fan this is the series one should completely erase from memory.. but I had the privelege of attending the boxing day test match at Melbourne Cricket Ground and let me tell you people.. the experience is amazing ,the people the ground the game oh it was awesome .

Next came the Australian open ,like everybody in the world I watched the top 4 gladiators of the game bring out the best in them one more time and enthrall us and take the sport to a next level.
During  one month of Australian open.. the city has a vibrant feel to it and as the tournament closes on the finals ,it just gets amazing and the finals is a spectacle.

With soo many awesome expereinces  and it happens every year wow ,as a true sports fan I just love this place ,with so many memories I think i can safely say that Melbourne is Mecca of sports .....


ps I forgot to add this ..Ive got the tickets for the F1 Grand prix would be watching from close range the worlds fastest machines on road battling each other ...I know dont get jealous people I will post my experience until then seeyaall.

Software Syndrome

Lets me just straight away put some facts b4 u and ull know what im taking about :
And b4 stating these facts let me tell that these all are genuine observations made by Dr.G.Sri Kiran (alias myself ) aah cant I call myself Dr bcos I saw recetly in MTV that even vijay mallaya (the booze guy) was conferred doctorate except for the bank balance I beat him in all respects man ok no more deviation from the topic I am just plain srikiran .
Coming back to the observations, I have made these on my roommate and these are genuine and are not fabricated.


Observations:
My roomie for my own security reasons lets assume his name to be X .X who used to not even spend a single weekend without coming up with some strange plan of spending the weekend which always had one thing in common and that was having a glass of vodka or beer o etc has suddenly stopped drinking ,no he has not met any girl or anything he has just lost interest in alcohol .Shocked and appalled at this sudden change of behavior I started off my serious observation ..
And I found out this was just the beginning
Next this guy is a great movie and tv freak and now he doesn’t watch tv and whats worse started reading novels daily and the most horrifying thing is he started reading novels like” pillars of the earth “.
So I had enough and to get it off my chest I had a face to face talk with him this weekend and asked him straight what his problem was .


He just said he was feeling strange these days and theres nothing wrong with his health but is not sure wat the problem really was .
It seems he’s not even feeling like appreciating beauty nowadays (to be more precise observe the beautiful chicks and appreciate the quality time god spent on them by saving it on people like me ) .U can imagine how serious his situation is which can do this to a young healthy guy like X.
He was and ardent fan of cricket and used to always make sure he bowls the next ball faster than the previous one and I had to bore the brunt of it by either getting hurt if I played at it or getting bowled if I left it .Now he is bowling spin …..
See these are all the dangerous symptoms of some syndrome and it took me a little time in finding it out that this is all linked to one place our workplace .
After all my observation and examining couple of other roomies I have found out that this is due to nothing but of our job and named it Sofware syndrome to explain it in plain terms many of the guys who are subjected to heavy workload during deadlines and when being suddenly left alone to only chat and browse could not handle such extremes and are being affected by this syndrome ….
This brings about some serious changes in ur attitude and ur likes and dislikes and has a serious effect on ur mental abilities too
So Guys and Gals of the software community be ware u could be next Mr. X or Miss x .
So here is my suggestion how to beat it ,no matter what the situation is even if it’s a deadline keep chatting and browsing so that u wont feel the change aa I think this shud suffice .If ur already affected then join the club lets cease worrying and start having fun …… god bless us all amen
