Will You Always Love Me....

Love is a feeling which defies time, age. Love should have no limitations of caste and creed and most importantly, person must have a faith that his/her beloved will love him/her for forever doesn't matter what will happen? Even when the times will not be smooth and winds will be hot, the love will not fade away. Its just so easy to say but its so much tough to do. It takes a lot of guts to stand beside your love and hold his/her hand all the time without caring about yourself. As it is said,one has to dance on the streets even when its for his/her love and there must not be any shame in it as its for none else but for that person whom you love. Not many actually do it or I should say are capable to do it. Its very easy to say I love you but its much harder to actually prove that love! If there is some time, one needs to ask his/her beloved that whether he/she will always be besides , will he/she always be in love with you, I guess these are the best lines which one can say to hi

Test Your Oracle Knowledge....

I am not sure how I got to this link. I was looking for some information on Oracle 11g and some how I landed up on this web page. I shall post the source once I shall be able to find it again. This is a test that is made to check one's skills about Oracle database. Though not so tough and may be a little deprecated one too , still its a good fun to test your skills for Oracle database over various topics of it. Check it out here, http://www.orafaq.com/wiki/Quizzes I took the DBA 1, 2 and Performance Tuning tsets. Well your truly scored 90% in DBA and 80% in Performance Tuning. Never mentioned that I am an expert in anyways so I guess no issues ;-).

A Disaster Dinner....

Ok I should not be that much rude in my words. But the issue is that I am unable to find any better word. It was a long time since I had gone out for a dinner outside and the same is true for my sister too. So I decided that we will go for dinner and will also take  her colleagues, Jahed, Rini , Nupur along with us. So the message was passed and finally we were told that they all will join us too.  So far so good. So I left in the night at about 9 to pick sis. Before that I had to meet my manager who was leaving for Malaysia today. He wanted to talk to me over couple of new ventures and plans. Well it didn't go so well. Also there was another colleague who was more interested in knowing why I went to Malaysia rather than anything else.  I guess all want to know that only and I really don't find myself comfortable talking about it. That was enough to put me off the track. Anyways what happened there is not having importance, at least here in this post. So I was saying that I

Bad Luck....

I thought I am going to attend my brother-like friend Gaurav's wedding but I guess it wont happen. Its too early to mention why so but I know from now only that it won't happen. Its sheer bad luck that I am going to miss it but I really have no other choice. I guess I have to add one more missed function in my list and get ready from now only for the enormous bashing that I am going to receive! Some times you pay a huge price for taking some decisions  and I guess, I am paying my installments.Just can say this only!

Just Lost In Thoughts....

Today my manager called me to give a news that he is going to Malaysia for a program. He called me up to ask about the place , how one manages there, which are the good hotels and about all other usual stuff that one needs to know when he is visiting at a place for the first time. He told me that another colleague of mine has told him that I have been there couple of times so he thought its a good idea to ask me about all this. As much I knew I tried to tell him. Everything was fine till the point when he asked me how many times and I visited there and what was the reason? I have been there 3 times and there are very few who know about this that I have visited there and most of them know about 2 times only. The 3rd visit is yet unknown ( and will be) to many, even for those are among the closest ones! He was completely shocked hearing and he insisted to know the reason what made me visit the place so many times? And he sounded more confused when I said that it was for some personal vi

Krazzy At Rush Hour....

No I am still in my senses and I have not struck in any rush hour too. Its just that I happened to see two movies in a row today which were absolutely equal in everything of them. So at the end of the movies, all I am left with is with this confusion that what was that in both the movies which can be called either a story or action or acting despite both were made by some of the biggest names in the movie business? Yes I am talking about Krazzy4  and Rush Hour 3 . I don't whether I should say it was my bad luck or good luck that I saw both the movies in a single day. So here are my thoughts about both of them. Yes only thoughts as the review I can't do because for that I should be able to understand what the movie is all about which sadly I am still trying to get my hands on. Krazzy 4 Rakesh Roshan is one of the finest directors which we have in Indian movie industry. Despite few bad movies , mostly all of his movies are good entertainment. And with that last sensation tha

Blog Update To Version 2.5....

Wordpress has released the version 2.5 of its blog. My public domain blogs are already upgraded as being managed by Wordpress itself. But I had to upgrade my private domain blog to the current release myself. I tried it yesterday but some how it didn't work well. Today I tried with Wordpress Automatic Upgrade plugin  and everything worked like charm. So if you can read this blog  , I guess everything is up and running.

Wedding, Shopping, Makeover....

So you thought I am getting married :). No its not the case. I am talking about my friend G whose marriage got fixed just few days back.  I shall say that's its really nice to see him so much happy. His would-be wife, P is also very good in nature. So as the marriage date comes closer, the preparations have also become more rapid. There are a lot of things to be purchased and the time is very less. So its a little chaos at times that happens. But its fun anyways. So in the same process, me and G went today to see some Sherwanis . It was the first time that I was going along for some thing like this so it was all very new for me. As me and G didn't have much idea about that from where we can buy and what to see in it regarding the quality and all that so we took along one more close friend of ours, M who got married a year back and had done some real good shopping for his wedding. You can imagine from this that he actually went to a very renowned designer to get his Sherwani

WWW & Me.....

Well I am using this internet stuff over quite a some time now. As you are reading , I maintain a blog too. Over the time, there are couple of places where I am over this world wide web. Just thought to find all the scattered pieces together and put them here so that I can at least remember where I am :-). So in case, you have not noticed ( no prize even if you did already ;-)) , I have added my profile over different sites where I am. Besides these, I am also on Orkut  . So if you are on any of these websites, feel free to drop me a message or friend request. If you are on Orkut, leave me a scrap. This list is updated over this blog of mine, over my Wordpress blog  , my Tripod website  and on my APEX website  too. I am still feeling very lazy to update and launch my own official site. Though its already out there and running but still its not in the shape to bring it out. As soon as I shall be able to put it together, I shall introduce you to it. Till then , visit the other sites whe

And They Call Themselves Professionals....

I visit Oracle Forums  very often. Its a good place to have a look at lots of interesting issues, interact with a lot of genius people from around the globe. I do try to answer questions with my little knowledge. Its an open and free forum but some times , its really weird that how on earth some one can be like this?  I am not really sure that the original poster really have an issue or he is just making all the posters over the forum fool by asking this kind of question or behaving like that? Its kind of sad and funny both but to be more precise, its actually more sad to see these so-called professionals ( if they can call them so) behave so silly and then blame others for not being friendly and helpful. Hope the original poster will get the answer or better he would learn how to behave in an open public forum. For those of you who don't do/study/work in Oracle Database, don't be worried.  Just read the post and enjoy. There is no technical content in the post already :-).

Back, Tired & Sick....

I just got back few minutes ago at home. Its been a tough tour. Partly because the modules were tough and so were the audience but the major reason was ( and still is) that from the day when I landed up at Delhi, I again fell sick, some thing which is happening since last 3 weeks continuously. Its really tough I tell you when you are coughing every second minute and you have to speak for 9 hours giving a lecture. Believe me its not that easy! And the same happened with me since last 4 weeks. I don't know the reason but I guess what some one said to me long time back about how I work and its side effects is coming as true. He said to me that I shall burn out very soon and I believe the process is started. Well its okay. I am known for pushing the limits so lets see how long I can push me and everything else :-). It was tough program as the audience was very sharp and to add on, the modules itself represented lots of challenges. Not that I had not delivered the modules before but t
