30 more days in Ottawa

Now 30 more days to go in Ottawa. My return is planned for March 1st. Without much work in office and a lot of experiences, new lifestyle, new friends, a lot of reading and ofcourse some extra money in my account..last 4 months in Ottawa was really a very good time. Except the boring night shifts, everything else was good.

But when we are gaining something , we have to miss something else..That universal rule is true in my case too...Missing Weekend trips to home, Football in Weekdays, homely food, Chennai friends, etc..Life is changed a lot. Life is becoming very fast. 2 day weekend is not sufficinet enough to take rest.. :)

Except weather everything else is good in Ottawa. But the snow falling was a really different experience..I have a lot of free time here. so, Read a lot ..about different subjects Linux, Embedded system, World war, Sherlock holmes, DSP, Indian start up companies, a lot of blogs. Two weeks back , bought two new embedded system boards (Atmel STK500 and Dragon) from US. Eventhough shipping charge was more(90$), it was worth to buy it. Read more about my experience of programming STK500 board in my techblog - OnTarget.

Here, Winterlude is started. Winterlude is an annual festival in Ottawa that celebrates winter. So, planning to visit Skating ring this weekend. This weekend one more friend from chennai is joining us in Mckellars( This is the our appartment name in Ottawa). Happy weekend to all..!!
