Time.....

Time has been an unkind teacher, It taught me to love, at the wrong time. It taught me to lose,  at the wrong time. Time is an unkind teacher. Time has never been my friend.. Whether it's the fleeting seconds or the never ending hour, How much ever time we spend together, It never taught me to move on. Time will always be an unkind teacher.

PS3 Games / Movies: 2010/ 2011

List of movies, old and new watched sometime in the past 2 years. Most of these movies I have watched more than once. Guess this is what I do when I have too much of idle time. I’m planning to start writing reviews on the games I play than the movies I watch. You could say that I have become even lazier, as a movie review will eat up a lot of my time considering that I watch about 4 -5 movies during the week and about 6-8 movies during the weekends. So the movie tally is about a 10 – 13 movies in about 7 days. In comparison, I would play about 2 – 3 games in a month. Hmm, I think reviewing games will be much more time consuming though the quantity is less; I’ll need to cover a lot of aspects for a game review. I think it’s going to be a tough ask on me. As of now I own 24 PS3 games which will be augmented by another 6 games. The below mentioned games will be in my possession by March 20 th or so: 1. Timeshift 2. Dragon Ball Z: Burst Limit 3. IL-2 Sturmo

Poem JUN2010

You are the only thing on my mind, You put me on a bind. I would rather be alone, Cause I can't take this for long. My heart's a beat away, TO make you feel this way. I want you to be here, all alone with me near. This feeling ain't gonna stop, you are always on the top. I would rather be on my own, Can't take it being alone. You are the one for me, how else could I ever be, without you in my life, There is sadness available in rife.

Do you think it's harder to be a Business Development Manager at a small company compared to working for a known brand?

My response to a LinkedIn question asked about Business Development in a SME as compared to a Name Brand. Here are my 2 cents having hands on experience working in SME’s and Name brands. SME’s Advantages: · Target Accounts: You are spoilt for choice. Normally, you can run free and work on any account you choose as there may not be too many Clients and too many other people working on them. Mostly you won’t be hampered by some other BD guy working on the same account from the same company. In SME’s communication is seamless and you’ll know who is doing what. · Relationship: It’ll be easier to forge relationships and rapport in a SME as the number of people you need to know are lesser and mostly there will be 1 or 2 POC’s for each division or specialization. · Multiple Roles: Most people may not find this as an advantage; however for me this is what drives me.

28JUN09 Posting done now :D

This was supposed to be posted back on 28JUN09 ; Just shows how lazy I am. --------------------- As I start writing this, I wonder where I am headed with this post or this piece (would like to call it a piece of art, but then no one else will except me). Lots of things have happened these past few weeks I am totally disconnected with reality. Want to race through life at the same time don’t want it to be a blurry haze when I do look back. Had the opportunity to interact with several different types and kinds of people for which I am very happy and they made me realize how lucky I am to have such a good life and upbringing. I am extremely blessed to have a loving family, friends who genuinely care about me and my well being with no expectations. If one would ask who Siva is to you, I wonder what they would say, is he someone you can depend upon or someone who is irresponsible and careless. I do not want to be someone who knows everyone in the world, I just want to be a person who can

Wonder what's been keeping me busy ?

If you are wondering what has kept me busy for the past 8 months.....wonder for a few more days cuz I plan to update this blog with stuff that has happened to me these 8 months. I just hope that I find time to jot down whatever I remember, just to keep record for my own future references. A day will come when I can go through all these posts, reminiscent and get nostalgic about. Having my fingers crossed that I do find time for some personal space and work.

Movie Reviews - Sivi, Katrathu Tamil, MalaiKottai, Cashback, You Kill Me, Lucky You, Breach, Hot Fuzz, Wild Hogs, I think I love my wife

Movie Reviews: The order of this list does not have any meaning. The only reason Sivi is Top of the list is because it's one of my nick names :) Sivi New Faces, an interesting story line and some extra-ordinary sound effects. I went in to this movie instead of Marudamalai for the sole reason that this movie had my nick name as it's title. Only after some time did I realize that this movie is a Thriller. Apart from all the cat calls and the general movie histrionics that can be expected from a crowd that comes to a theatre like Sai Shanthi, this was a decent movie flick (Probably thanks to the only girl in the theater, who was also really good looking, who happened to sit right in front of me :D ). One can watch it once in the theatre just for the histrionics of the movie going crowd. There were certain scenes which were really scary, though one would expect such a shocking scene, thanks to the background music, you still can’t be well prepared for it though. All round bad actin

Hope is Life...

Another month goes by and I still exist in this world. Though I bring no value to this world, I ensure I don't take anything away from it as well. Another one of my creations penned way back in 2002-2003, the Golden era (not literally) when I was at my creative peak, so to speak. I don't consider this worthy of bearing my name, however, here it is: (I do need to post something here, the solemn promise I made to myself lives on for another month) Hope is Life Once in your lifetime, You would have thought that What am I doing with my life? You might think that your future is blank. You may think your career is in a crossroads. You may think that you have made bad choices. You may even think that life is full of shit. But know this, Whatever happens, happens for a reason. You are here for a reason. There is a purpose for your existence. Think of this whenever you feel down, whenever you feel that that life sucks. Everything happens for the Greater good, Always think of this after
