---------------------
Got back home late and just managed to wake up by 6:30 and rushed thru to get ready by 7:20 and out the door.
Filled up gas on the way and reached Bethlam by 8:30.
Got to drink coffee . lucky they had breakfast and lunch serverd there for FREE ;)
The training was okay, was expecting more. Kind of left with a feeling of unsatisfaction. As thou the lady teaching was avoiding much of focused training.
Got to meet a malu guy working on a different project of diff client. got a few pointers from him as to the Malu places to go for food and grocerries in and around Philly. As he was from the South of Kerala , Trivandrum, kind of felt the wall there of some one who I probably would not have as too close as a friend.
So we both did not even bother to exchange any particular details.
Reached back home around 7pm and was considering going to brasils again tonite, but was still feeling the effects of no sleep from yesterday nights exciting evening at Brasils. Got to know more about Carol the french gal and Trisha from upstate New York, who is an Environmental engineer. It was so naturally interesting to be talking with a gal who is an engineer too. Its like we think or are trained to think alike. Logically and rationally, unlike others who are into HR or Arts or Literature.
OR is it that the IQ of people who end up doing Engineering is naturally higher?
Carol is here from france for 3 years to teach french in some school along with 3 other girls. And she is going to run the marathon on Sunday, so may not make it to Vango on monday either.

Sep 17, Friday Guilia may meet in Madrid for salsa ;)
Friday, Sep 17 2010
-------------------
Woke up all groggy as I was having issues with my stomach. Again the bad effect of not having dinner at night and just munching into the veggie chips.
Sas msg from Guila that she is interested in meeting up in Madrid for salsa dancing ,,, hmmm she is now in Germany. Would be interesting to meet the one great artist I know, credited with painting the childrens hospital in Snobby Milan. And she is a great cook of a range of Italian dishes. yuuummm miss her cooked food.
got to work around 7am aprised sweta to be careful about the possible defects that might come up and the possible solutions. As the system testing seems to have got delayed at the MOC end. Did not expect Li the chinese gal to go and talk to the testing team about it. As I had told her not to talk about this to anyone. But she had to try and shift the attention and focus from her short comings and missing dates and not able to connect with avay on to me.
Well atleast i have a solution if its at my end. Thou the original issues is at the avay end that dennys code needs to send across to us.
Fixed the issue with the indian bank. :) with out having to call India. phew! that was a relief.
9:30am posted the below on evas page
-------------------------
Everyone keeps searching, some are lazy to search, so they settle down at the first opportunity.
Some people are restless and are motivated to travel around to different places and search. And they keep searching.
When everything you are searching for is just with in yourself and around you.
Peace of mind and Happiness is with in our self.
Some search for a time and then decide to give up the search and settle down.
Then they suddenly realize what they were searching was right there.
People go to India, Himalayas, Temples, Churches, Mosques, Synagogues and other holy places. The purpose is the same.
To satisfy your desire to find that missing something. Control your desires and you control your happiness. (must be Buddha's teaching)
Happiest is the person who has very low level of desire. And at peace he is in his life and his smile and laughter are real. He smiles from the heart. His eyes twinkle with sincerity and openness.
He does not have to pretend to be happy nor act happy and put up a fake smile.
Within yourself and your thinking lies your own happiness. Once you learn to thank the universe/god for the great day, the wonderful family, people who love us for what we are and accept the simple things in life every day. We will have found the root of happiness and peace.
The great teachers did not find maturity and nirvana by traveling around the world. They realized the core by been still at one place. Then with the realization that followed, they went around spreading their knowledge.
-----------------------
12:30 went to dosa hut to have indian food. not dosa. $12.
kind of no mood to do any thing or check anything. And tomorrow there is training in alentown, about 1.5 hrs drive away from home. Atleast they have food there tomorrow.
So today do I go to brasils as others have asked me to come over there with the hope of having some sexy dances after vango on monday. ;)

Thurs, Sep 16 2010
------------------
Woke up at 5am, thanking the universe and god for another great day ahead. Slowly went about the early morning functions and reached work around 7:10am.
Tried doing some call transfers for Nsc with Sweta so that she could get her logs.
Took copies off all my cards. And a print of the flight to madrid.
Coming sat have to go to Allentown for whole day course on Conflict resolution and management. So no hiking and salsa. OR maybe sneak in one on friday night. or go there after returning back.
IT was almost a 12 hr sleep that I had last night. feeling of leathergy.
Also pissed of a bit by the self centered snobbish behavior of Malin. Good god, she is so, someone I would not be able to live with. So many of the same self centered princissy attitude that eva showed.
Its like non of these gals learned anything from their parents. Guess they grew up pampered and spoilt.
And I am no longer going to be the guy who is going to clean up and take care after them and their irresponsible shallow behavior.
:)
Guess I have built up a block against these type of people, hope it stays and I can be strong for myself.
Got mail from Cathy about the trip to Madrid, she is like an encyclopedia on Europe.
No longer able to log on to Google chat at work.
got home early around 5:30 after solving or finding possible solution to the moc focus issue. should something like this come up should be able to provide immediate solution for that.
Went home and watched the footbal of La Liga (spanish leauge) seville v/s devanport. ended in a draw.
Then went to temple near lansdale around 9pm. Looks huge , did not get the dinner there as it was closing time.

Sep 15, great looking day
Wednesday Sep 15 2010
---------------------
Woke up after a very long sleep, skipped salsa at Reef, maybe next Tuesday.
Feeling much more awake after a great nights sleep. Sleep and recharge the body and mind. As they are connected. Everything is connected.
Walk into work around 7:30am with a Big smile (ear to ear) and greeting people right in the parking lot, opening doors for pretty ladies. hmmmmm
Around 11am there was a fire alarm and every one had to rush out. Only to be told that this is a fire drill.
Talked with AV in San francisco. he is at home now that he is not able to travel every week. Waiting for a new opening around the bay area.
He wanted to go thru the SAP with me. but I am kind of not in any state of mind to take in SAP. Maybe after the Euro trip. God only knows if I will have a job when I come back after the trip.
well just have to be prepared of the worst case scenario.
then had a talk with anil v in texas. nothing much other than they had heavy rains there the day before.
Got back home to sleep a bit before heading off to Wed night Salsa. was not in any mood to wake up, laziness seems to take over. So in the end just went to sleep with out having any dinner. That is becoming so much or has already become so much of a way of living for me. No more dinners. just lunch. And I gained 10 pounds the past 2 weeks.

Sep 14, Euphoric from yesterdays dancing
Tuesday, Sep 14 2010
--------------------
something special about this date, not able to remember what. But just a gutt feeling.
Got up around 5 again out of bed by 5:45, tired but Euphoric from yesterday nights salsa at Vango and connecting with many more people in Philly salsa circuit.
hahaha,, what a night it was yesterday,,,, from Mia, a beautiful Nude model with a heart warming smile to Trisha, a sweet gal with the sweetest innocent smile who is studying to become a doctor. It was intersting meeting them and connecting with them.
Also got to meet the first gal I met in Philly salsa, it was nice meeting and connecting with her after about 5 months now... time sure passes. Atleast she came over and talked to me, I had completely forgotten her exact face.
It was a great start of the night as I just decided to dance with one and all, any gal left standing, I just went over and asked to dance.
Ended up dancing sexy merengue most of the time with one particular gal. Looked like she wanted to give me her number,, aahhh I maybe some other time.
Monday night at Vango rocked. Maybe tonite I will also try the reef. Just buzzed with only 3 hrs sleep have to catch up on that.
Talking with Mia, got to know more about her. Its a strange thing, how a very beautiful gal, so down to earth could also be into so much of life issues and seemed to be low on self esteem. Does nude modelling and very much into camera and pic taking.
I would have jumped and given my heart to her and tried to play the role of the person who wanted to bring about a positive change in her life and take care of her. but this time around I will just harden my heart and let her sort out her own lifes issues. Non of my business.
Around last month, when she first came out dancing, ended up breaking her toe nails when dancing with me. She was very sportive about it even thou she was bleeding.
Atleast gald to know that her toe is doing better.
12:noon went to dosa hut for dosa, idly and wada.. with aji and murli
3pm and i am feeling the effects of not having enough sleep.
Should I go to the Reef?

Sep 13, Euro trip with the ladies
Monday 13 sep 2010
------------------
Lethargy was the word, waking up was easy, but getting out of bed was a pain. Its cloudy outside, just like in Vancouver. Honeymoon climate.
Looking at the correspondence with friendly group of ladies I will be with in Spain. Wow so much of info all of them seem to have and they all seem so helpful about it. It would be interesting to meet them all and get to know face to face all their travel experience. :)
Suggestions for Places to visit
Seville : the Southern cultural capital of spain, Columbus set sail from here.
Cadeques-Salvatore Dali’s stomping/painting/artistic grounds
Girona
Cabo de Gatos in the sunny south
One of the top 5 restaurants in my life was next to a small B&B near Carbonneras.
Granada is also a wonderful easy to get too/interesting college town
Alhambra is amazing.
Minorca
I am also looking at these two place at the border of Spain and France.

Sep 12, Rainny day
Sunday, Sep 12 2010
-------------------
woke up around 11am.
Light rain outside.
around 12:30 called up home and talked with mom for a long time.
It seems that the upper portion of our home has been rented out again to the Principal of the school near by who came here from Pondicherry.
have been having an idea of cooking some dry beef fry, going to try that out. :)
It was a okay night of salsa yesterday night. Some good energy dancing with one of the gals.
around 9pm got mail from Sidney that Marty passed away this friday. He was a member of our hiking group and lived close to where I live.
Life seems to change so suddenly. Things come to an end so suddenly.
Reminds me of my buddy, Miroslave, who passed away in an accident in Vancouver, this Feb. Just before the olympics.
The Olympics seem such a distant memory now. Just have a bag full of memorabilia.
Working on the Euro trip, just checked out the train to Barcelona that goes all the way into France, by the sleepy Mediterranean border.
But before that maybe make a trip to Lisboa in Portugal around the 12 as its a national holiday in Spain.
