Living itself is an achievement to her... A Real Rebirth...

Life to most of us means going to college, or work place, hangouts, fights, exams, chatting, surfing, projects, movies, eating, sleeping, other any regular day-to-day life activities and few exceptional bad experiences and what not.. But life for few people is more than what we encounter in our daily life… In my life one of such kind of person is “Ramya”... Her life is much more and more than what I/We have seen in our lives… After hearing her life history I must admit that I have got a new inspiration for my life and that ma spirit of living is raised to 200%.... We might have heard from some one or read somewhere about so many inspirational people but when the same person is living next door it certainly makes a difference... “Ramya” has shown me that difference...

Here is chat with the inspirational person in ma life...

"I don’t like worrying or being sad... I hate worries... This characteristic of mine came from my birth... I never changed it at any stage of my life... This is the introduction Ramya gave to me, who like being happy and making others happy is the motto of her life...

Ramya was born in Hyderabad. Due to her family problems she was left alone in grand mother's house at Pudukottai at the age of 2 while her two brothers and two sisters were living with her parents. Since then she learnt to have loneliness as her friend. She completed her schooling in Pudukottai and BSC in Chennai. After her college, to enjoy the holiday she left to one of her relative's house at Mumbai. It was when the most tragedy incident happened to her life...

She continued...

"At the relative house, to make a cup of coffee I went and switched on the old fashioned kerosene stove... With no prior experience in doing it I think I triggered the anger of stove, which all of a sudden bursted and the fire started spreading on me. All the relatives came immediately and put off the fire and when they took me to hospital, there wasn't single inch of skin left, and all were burnt in fire... "

They took Ramya to near by GH. While carrying her, there were whispers saying its waste of taking her to GH itself, and it will be good if the soul is separated with out any more pain..."Will I leave the earth soo soon" were her words then... She was put in bed for 46 days. Her pulse started to go down. 47th day the doctor who tested her told that every thing is finished and they can take her 'body' for post mordem.

"My post mordem batch number is 13...Who will get the chance of telling this... “She said with smile but seeing her narration of having touched the death bed and sharing this painful incident made me feel amazing about her....

There was an experienced Plastic Surgeon at the hospital who took an extra care on Ramya and wanted her to come out of death bed… But when he heard that she was taken to post mortem he couldn’t believe it and immediately he went in search of her. When he examined, he found that there was still beat in her ankle joint... "Thank god they had not performed the post mordem yet" she sighed...He then took her to the ward and exactly three days from then she regained her consciousness…

Even after getting out of the death bed, life hasn't been so easy to her... "Since I was put in bed for so many days my body got into so many infections... The time it took for cleaning all that... Apppaa... Even if I think of it now its makes me damn stuck... Even though I took medicine for suppressing the pain, it would be as if those medicines failed to work on my body.... The damaged skin would be replaced by the skin from other part of the body and have to wait for both injuries to get cured and again perform next operation. Like this uncountable operations have taken place...

On the whole two-an-a-half years of my life were spent in hospital itself...By then many incidents had taken place in the outside world... My grandma and father have taken tickets to heaven... But to everyone's surprised I have come out of the death and started to breathe...." she exclaimed and her decision after that is most important...


When the discharge date was announced her brother came forward and arranged for taking her to his home. But Ramya decided to come to Chennai for searching job. Doctors had told her that you can’t go to city and search for job an all. But she dint listen to all that...Her thoughts were, if she decides to live with her brother it would be fine for few days, she can get on well but what is her future? Will it be good to have her entire life spent with at her brother's place...She was not interested in marriage and was reluctant to have a life of a normal girl, it was due to her loneliness which she had experienced in her childhood and started to love begin alone... She also have to do costliest plastic surgeries to make herself fine, to whom is she going to depend for all the money??... This made her to decision of landing in Chennai pretty stronger!!

"That time I was only 36kgs... I can neither resist cold nor the hot summer. My body condition was so week, with this I searched for job... I neglected those people who rejected me by seeing my face. I believed that only the companies which give preference to the talent can be good one... I started for searching a company like tat. The computer course which I had done helped me in getting a software programmer job. I took a working women's hostel and started earning my money... I would earn, save it and do the next level of operation. Till now my life is going like this...” Ramya finished telling her life history to me, who owns a blogspot which says Willtolive written in Tamil... After hearing her life my eyes were filled with tears, with few drops already flowing down my cheeks.....

But now she is not anymore a hostelite... She is living with her sister, Gayathri... To say about Gayathri... She is Quite by Nature which is parallel to the naughty character of Ramya. Probably this difference made a strong bond between both of them… Ramya has pursued both MCA & MBA degrees and now she is working as Project manager in a private concern where Gayathri is in the marketing division...

The magnitude of Ramya’s life resides in her ambition. She is one of greatest disciple of Mother Theresa and wanted to serve the people by starting an orphanage and fulfill her life by shouldering her responsibility towards the needy people. Ramya’s saying goes like “My amount is little but my support is Sincere”.

Gayathri also has the same aspiration of caring for people, which made her not to think on the relationship of marriage… This also holds good in making Ramya and Gayathri’s life to travel in the same boat….

The challenges and defeats faced by Ramya had never stopped her from pursuing the goals and desires and regardless of the setbacks her determination and spirit to live had made her life beautiful….

You may wonder how I know about Ramya or Gayathri... Both of them are my Brother's Colleagues... I feel proud that my brother is working along with such great peoples and I bow my head for these two inspiring ladies and hats off to their spirit of living.....

Missing My First Job....

First is always best in most of our life.... First schooling, First few close friends, First love, First outing at college etc etc... But the "First" always go very soon leaving a mark or pleasant memories to be cherished for life time.. To me my "first" employment was THE best...

Here I go narrating to you about my first job and how much I mean to it....


Having inspiration from my Father, I always wanted to work from my school days.. As soon as I finish my graduation I wanted to go for an job, this was the only plan I had for the future. Though I wanted to continue my learning process in the form of post graduation, all I thought was to work for a while(say three years) and then proceed to higher education. I have always been keen on knowing how it would be work and earn. But since completion of my graduation in June 2008 I never got an perfect opportunity so easily. Or put in other terms the recession dint like me getting on to the right job. But after a small struggling period of 6 months I got an oppurtunity to get hold of my First job oppurtunity which came on its way in Jan 11th 2009, though it wasn't in any way related to 4 years of my engineering studies...

Eagerly anticipating, I put my foot forward on to the first Job on 21st Jan 2009. Only very few dates in our life can be rememered till our death. This day is one like that to me.. First day on my work in life ever... The concern where I landed was a small one but had all the necessary aspects which one would expect out of working environment. The first day experience was little similar to my thoughts. Had the Induction program giving guidelines about what would be my job, intro of my collegues, Do's and Don'ts etc etc.... But after a weeks time my thoughts were eaten up by the experience which i encountered. It was much more than my thought process.. Had fun through out the day while performing my duties on job. Never had the stress of working under pressure. All throughout my tenure the work environment had the elements of hospitality & satisfaction of having come to work with an excellent team. The everyday lunch we had together, the bday parties we celebrated together and more than that the interviewies we joinedly performed still remains fresh to my eyes and close to my heart.


After having written quite a lot it would be fair on my part if I do not mention the company name of where I had all these memorable experiences. I worked for Falcon Services, an international placement company with its head office in Mumbai. I worked their as Jr. Recruiter. I do have to mention about G. S. Muthusamy, he is the sr. Consultant there, who gave the induction to me and since then full hand support in performing my job in every possible way he could. My other collegues were Murali & Santhosh. They both we real awesome collegues, never sure whether I would get to work with guys like them again. I really thank all of them who made my First employment so much enjoyable and sooo much memorable... Missing you all...

Though my journey in Falcon is very short, I had had a quiet a lot of experience which enable me to strenghten my soft skills and learnt the entire process of international recruitments.


Recently, I started with my new assignment Software support in Logic Information System who have Oracle Technology in their Base.. Though I never wanted to quit my first job, I shifted only to give justice to the fours of my Engineering studies. Hoping for the best to occur here....

I really wonder now, how I have written so much, am I the same girl who would search for the words even to write a single paragraph?? ... May be I have written the most interesting part of my life and most memorable events that I lived in my life....

Success

This is one of my favorite short story which I had read long before and I enjoy narrating it to all my friends from the time I have read it.. Here I go putting it in my own words... The story inspired me a lot and has got quite a lot of deep meaning to it..

Success....

There lived a boy who was inquisitive in knowing more about the life and he experimented various things in his life to know what the world is all about. He researched about scholars and investigated in knowing about how they have reached success and great heights in life. He also went in person to many people to interview them to know about the secret of success. But all went in vain. He couldn’t get the result which he expected. During a holiday time, he came to know about a saint who has visited his city and about his fames. He decided to go to the saint and ask about the secret of Success. One fine morning he went to the Saint and asked what is the secret of achieving Success is? The Saint did not answer him immediately instead, asked the boy to come to him next morning. The next morning, the boy went to the saint and asked the same question of how to get Success in life. The Saint this time asked the boy to come to a near by river the next day morning. The boy with anxiety went to the river the next day morning.

The Saint and the boy met near the river the following day. The boy once again raised the same question. The Saint and the boy walked few distance into the water such that the water leveled near to the neck of the boy. Suddenly to the boy’s surprise the Saint put his hands to the back head of the boy and pushed his face into the water and made him remain into water until his face turned blue. After couple of minutes the Saint released him and boy with difficultly took deep breathe.

The Boy with frustration questioned the saint why you did like that? The Saint then asked the boy what did you required when you were under water. The boy with puzzled face answered him: "I required Air to Breathe". The Saint now explained: “When you want Success as intensely as you wanted air under water then you will achieve it, and this is the secret of success.”

Watch out for IMEI number in Mobile phones.....

Phones without IMEI numbers to be disconnected from 1st of December 2009!!!


What is IMEI number ?

Every phone manufactured in India or outside comes with a a unique 15-digit code that identifies a mobile. This code is known as the IMEI number. It stands for International Mobile Equipment Identity. It prevents the use of stolen handsets for making calls and allows security agencies to track down a specific user.

Three Co-ordinates:

There are three co-ordinates to every phone call that we make. The first co-ordinate is the IMEI number which is the official identification of the phone according to internationally accepted standards. This identifies our phone to the operator.
The second is our SIM card number which changes when we either switch operator, or switch a plan without changing the operator. This identifies our specific SIM when we make a call. The third co-ordinate is the tower that routes the call. This variable changes as the call is switched across cities and continents.
IMEI number is therefore very important in tracking down the movements of a phone especially in matters of national interest.
If one has a phone how does one locate it on the phone?All phones allow users to access their IMEI number. In Nokia phones for instance, one can press *#06# on their phones to access their IMEI number. In case of theft, this number can be registered with the police.
In the apple Iphone the IMEI number can either be located by accessing the 'about' icon on the Iphone or by attaching the iphone to the itunes software on your computer which would display the IMEI number.
A simple google search saying IMEI number + 'your mobile handset model' should help you fugure how to access the IMEI number on your phone.
Which models are going to die?

The low end Chinese phones that have flooded the market are going to be hit. According to one estimate there are 25 million such phones in the country.

What to do?

Readers who have a Chinese make phone need not panic. All they need to do is contact their mobile operator and ask them to implant an IMEI number on the phone. Remember the government doesn't hate Chinese phones, it only hates the phones that don't have an IMEI. The cellular phone operator association of India had made provision to incorporate a valid IMEI into such Chinese handsets through the use of a software mechanism but the response hasn't been on expected lines.

My First attempt to Write...

This is my first attempt to write in the blogs.. I always had interest to write more but had lots of hesitation to do so because I had never been so good in my language.. But today I had overcome my fear of writing and started this blog to share all my thoughts...

I want to start with thanking my Parent's because of whom am here now and the Almighty for giving me everything best in my life...

"Dreams pass into the reality of action. From the actions stems the dream again; and this interdependence produces the highest form of living." - Dream more and make your dreams into reality...
