My First Blog

I started to write my blog. It was about 6’o clock evening with my laptop having my fingers across the keyboard I was about to start my blog.


“Why peoples write blog?

Why they share their experience with others?

-this is really bakwas”


This was what I had in ma mind 6 months back. Now you may ask me what has happened to me in this 6 months and what had changed me to write a blog about myself?!?!?!?!?!?........ This is what I’m about to share with you now….


September 7-‘cRyInG mOmEnTs’


This was the day with lots and lots of dreams in ma life and about to miss ma home town – ‘Chennai’. I really wonder at times how peoples are staying away even though when they are in need of others. Its no matter that I should wonder now as a matter of fact now me too had experienced that. Now lemme allow ma blog to cry out for me…..:-(


September I woke up by 9:00am started off to think about ma B’lore life then had some little chat with my mom and packed up things for my new life.


It was about 12’o clock from there my fingers started to scroll down the contacts in my mobile to leave out a message for my friends and relatives saying I was going to join great IBM, so I was starting tonight in 2 tire ac train by 11:15. All where really happy and greeted me for ma future life.


It was about 5’o clock things started to happen faster and me got thrilled and excited for the much awaited B’lore life. Suddenly the scenario got changed ma mom with tears about to fell down on the floor stood aside me and peoples started to convince her, I ran short of words for ma cute mom, because I felt the same.


It was then 6’oclock. I had no time. I had to finish off things soon, ran to temple to get blessings.


It was 9’o clock I was at the railway station with a pride that I was going to join IBM then an hour later some of my friends, relatives and ma brothers were with me. I felt so much by holding my friends hand then it was time to say bye to ma friends, hugged each of ma friend which I would never ever forget. A long horn from the driver made me cry out loud inside ma heart, no other go ran and climbed up the train holding the door tightly ma hands slowly raised up to say bye bye.


After this day sep-7 l had learnt so many things in ma life which made me to write a blog about myself. Here is my B’lore life….@>--



Ma 6Months B’lore Life(Rather Life At IBM):


September-8 I stepped into B’lore. I expected that I would smell a different part of ma life, but still I had an instinct that I would be in B’lore for shorter period only. Three days went rapidly. Even though it was cold in B’lore then I felt the heat. I was not feeling well.


September-11 this was the day I joined at IBM (What a day to start with!!).I prepared my self for the first day wearing ‘Rugers’ pant neatly tucked in. I reached Grand Ashoka Hotel at 9:00 am there was a chunk of crowd where guys speaking to each other, and me too clubbed with them and it was about 9:15 am me and 2 of ma college friends entered the induction hall, about 300 peoples were sitting in the hall. The day started off with a sparkling speech by the IBM staffs then at the end of the day list of contacts in ma mobile augmented.


September-13 this was the day I stepped in to IBM office to collect my white ID badge. The first six days I had no trouble as I accommodated myself in ma aunt’s house then I was forced to think about my accommodation, so the same night I went in search of a paying guest at a place called Marthahalli. From there only I realized how tedious it to survive in this world is!?!?!?!....luckily for me I got a PG so the next day me and 2 of ma friends decided to stay together in that P.G but the same night(SEP-14) one of ma friend withdrawn from that P.G. So ma another friend also refused to stay with me. I had ever experienced this sort of situation. I had no choice in ma hand, so I walked back to ma aunt’s house.


After 1 week r so I got in to some other P.G. The above incident really taught me a lot …….


Training days at IBM:



My training was at an external venue and it went for 45 days this was one of the happiest moments I’ve ever had. We had free food or 45 days. I admired so much that I couldn’t envision guys with talents like this!!!!!!!!!.... In out training we were 19 in number. Each one talented in their own way. The one moment which I shall share with you is October-17 if not its no worth writing this blog.


It was about 11:00 am guys surrounded me for a birthday bumps…, I never really expected to happen then in front of me was a cute little pink cake rather I can say it as the love of 18 guys.


November-22 our training got over. I definitely want to quote a couch for this day-‘changeover from heaven to hell’.


The Bench Days(Nail Biting survival):



At first I was enjoying the bench days where I met lot many peoples from different regions. The only resource for me on bench is ‘Bommarillu’ the awesome film which I had ever admired from other films.


One month passed away some of them got in to projects, but me got some familiarity from ‘Bommarillu’ and managed to gain knowledge of some words in Telugu then came the real entwine the ELTP(Entry Level Trainee) test rather termination test. We had the test on jan 1st week I don’t remember the date exactly. After which I was in a complete anarchy, where several questions I asked to myself.


”What if I’m out of IBM?

How do ma Parents treat me?

Do I dserve IBM first of all?”


Two weeks later IBM- the big blues debanded all of the ACE Associates (arts and science students) to band-4 from band-6. we were given a BPO kind of work. Then I was in a clear chaos –“Should I quit IBM or stay back for its brand value??”


In the month of feb ELTP results started to come out many were fired and me kept my fingers crossed. I realized I need to uphold so I went in search of job, but nothing favored me atlast at feb 16 I got through TCS interview from there all things favored me on feb 18 I got congrats mail for ma ELTP test.



Then again a small chaos –“should I be in IBM or TCS?”. At last I made up ma mind for TCS and resigned IBM on feb 29.(what a day again!!). Now I’m in a feel that ma life wheel has rolled a lot I could have down pat those days (Sep-11—Feb-29) even when years pass away. Lemme look out what happens in ma TCS voyage .


The quote which I can add for ma IBM life is

“WAR ENEDED AT IBM, BUT I LOST THE FIELD”

Look out for my next blog.
