Yahoo !
Air Tickets, Newspaper Ads, Online Ads, Yahoo has decided to make its presence felt.
The past few months, Yahoo has been in the limelight once again. They have gone on a mad hiring spree. The HR people there also realize its mad in itself and hence are moving ahead with dual proposals. Selected, Permanent Employees and Contract workers. Looks like we are back to the age old Government Systems...
A List Of 43 Life Goals
Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.
Contemprorary Tribute to Mandela
Many years later, I had a chance to ask him. I said, 'Come on, you were a great man, you invited your jailers to your inauguration, you put your pressures on the government. But tell me the truth. Weren't you really angry all over again?' And he said, 'Yes, I was angry. And I was a little afraid. After all I've not been free in so long. But,' he said, 'when I felt that anger well up inside of me I realised that if I hated them after I got outside that gate then they would still have me.' And he smiled and said, 'I wanted to be free so I let it go.' It was an astonishing moment in my life.
Stumbling on Happiness
Normal day, let me be aware of the treasure you are ... Let me not pass you by in quest of some rare and perfect tomorrow. One day I shall dig my nails into the earth, or bury my face in my pillow, or stretch myself taut, or raise my hands to the sky and want, more than all the world, your return.
Finding Forrester ..
I returned from work early today. Did some shopping for mummy and then sat down for dinner. As I sat, I browsed through the channels and halted when I saw Sean Connery. I dont think there are many actors whose films even if horrible are worth watching just because of their actor...
So there it was "Finding Forrester", a movie I have always thought I should see some day. But until now, I could never think of myself in a mood of lonliness that warrants me to sit and watch it.
Kingdom of Heaven & King Arthur
I was in a very melancholy mood today. Life sometimes does that to you. For the first time today I had a host of questions asked to me about the whys and why nots of life at Poornam. :) I had a bunch of the freshest batch of kids, all less than one year, show their mettle. I loved their reasonings and I felt nice seeing their energy.
Here we were over a coffee at Cafe Coffeeday, me and Sojish having our meet the press sort of question rounds. The enthusiastic kids ranged their questions from, "Congrats to Poornam" to "Management is slow to respond to Issues" to " When is the next payscale revision" and so on.. :)
