Longest blogging.. ooops scribbling break.

It’s been nearly 4 months since I wrote my last blog. Probably this is the longest blogging break ever since I started scribbling a year back. There have been quite a few interesting events in this 4months of hibernation.

Initially I thought I will put down couple of lines about each of those in this blog, but then decided against that and I guess I will write in detail about each of them later. Just to get back into the groove of writing I will be scribbling on the week long hibernation that I managed to squeeze in last week in Chennai.

Over the last 3 weeks work and home had almost merged as I ended up working on Saturdays and holidays. The only reason I went home during that period was because my workplace didn’t have a room for me to hit the bed. Though those 3 weeks were physically taxing, it was a great experience in terms of the exposure I got working with few senior management people.

Last week though I managed to slip off from work and spend some quality time at home with my folks. When you are working at a place away from your house even one or two days you spend at home makes you feel good. But 5 whole days at home is a real luxury and I managed to have that last week. 5 days away from computers and work was a real relaxing experience.

Last 5 days at home were essentially spent catching up with few recently released Tamil movies, enjoying Mom’s food , spend some real quality time with my lil sis and visiting few temples in and around Chennai. Most enjoyable part was Mom’s food which was of top quality as always :)

With my sis getting into the crucial and busy time of preparing for her class 12 board exams this year, I guess this would be the last time, when I can spend some quality time with her before her exams. So in that sense this trip back home was very rewarding.

Of the movies I watched I think Saroja was the best amongst the lot. Though labeled a thriller this movie scores because its humor. The best part of the whole movie watching experience was the timing of the comedy scenes and the unexpected scenes in which they appeared. Generally comedy scenes are forcefully injected into the movie but the ease with which they formed a part of this movie was simply amazing.

On a whole this small break in Chennai was the best I have had in the last 2 years when I have been away from home.
