Bye to Ottawa..
This post is just to say bye to Ottawa...This time i stayed here exactly 4 and half months. The first 2 months summer and 2 months winter..Not bad. Enjoyed the stay and work in Flextronics. It was a nice experience.
And this time we experienced a Bus strike here...in the last few days. It was quite unexpected one.
Enjoyed the night parties in weekends and busy week days..:) Had a time to catch up old friends in Ottawa, got some new friends. So, tomorrow we are flying back to India..it is a mixed feeling now...like the thrill of reaching back India and the sadness of leaving this nice city. Yeah..I liked this place very much. Really nice people, good eat outs...( I agree some time people are crazy though) and this time winter was not too bad.
So, thanks to all friends in Ottawa who made this four and half months a real fun and memorable..So, i am pretty sure we will meet up somewhere in life...this world is really small right..?

After a long time, i am back in to blogging
It is a long time back i stopped blogging here..I used to update new entries in my technical blog. Now again, i am having a lot of free time - thats the reason i started blogging...:)
Life is going fine. As most of you know, i am in Ottawa, Canada now. Here winter is about to start. So, going out is not a good option. So, roaming in the city is limited to weekends. I will be here in Ottawa for one more month(It can be less also..not sure about that).
Now i am spending most of the time in reading blogs, learning programming in python, updating Linkedin contacts. Just add me, if you are there.
My Linkedin profile is here: http://www.linkedin.com/in/rakeshradhakrishnan
Today i read one blog entry of Marcelo Toledo - about google workplace. Very interesting...Hopefully all the companies will follow this model. soon...:) So, it is time for dinner..bye now.

Post from Kerala
I am writing this post from Kerala. I reached Kerala today morning to attend one of my friend's marriage. Friends from bangalore are coming to Thrissur for attending the marriage. Planning to visit Athirappally waterfalls today afternoon. Will return back to chennai tomorrow afternoon.
The life in chennai is very busy. We are planning to shift to a new house in chennai, mainly we are looking for a very good residential location. All brokers are asking for rent above 12,000/ only. Still, difficult to get house in a good locaton. Search is going on. Because of this, not getting much time to spent in Office.Luckily, not much work in office.But planning to start work from next monday. I bought a second hand splendor bike and a new mobile, Nokia N73.Traffic in Chennai is not bad compared to bangalore. Otherwise half of my salary i have to spend for auto itself. One thing i dont like in chennai is uncontrolled auto charges. New mobile is having a lot of good features i was looking for. 3.2 Megapixel camera,GPRS, MP3 player..and i got 2 GB memory card with mobile. Now i can save as many contacts i want in my new mobile. That was the biggest problem i was facing with my Nokia 1112.
Planning to start house construction in Kerala next month, hopefully. Plan is ready. Some formalities are needed for applying loan. The process is going on. A very good financial planning is required in the near future.

Blogging after a long time
I am blogging after a long time..Blogging sites are not allowed in Office. So getting very less time for blogging. Life is going fine in Chennai. Started work in Office. But not much work. 2 Weeks vacation was good...3 days I was in Bangalore. Rajesh too returned back from onsite, Nepal.
It is raining in Chennai. So, not much hot here. But planning to buy one AC. Else, next two months will be difficult. Started playing football again. Will post new blog entries in other two blogs also...
Planning for some trips in the coming months. Will update latter.
