Pre-ILP 2 days at Trivandrum

The journey of my IT industry life started on 11 november 2010 when i left from bareilly for Trivandrum to join TCS. Wasn’t prepared yet to travel a long lasting 60 hours jouney but had to do anyhow. Adding spice to condition was that i had to change the train at New delhi. I first had to go to New Delhi and board direct train (kerala express) to Trivandrum.

The only thing which was positive was that 4 of us were together in kerala express. Himanshu, chandan, pavas and myself so passing time was not a problem.The only problem was food. Only a single time we got a veg meal. And rest all time the menu was idli smbhar, vada sambhar,appam sambhar,dosa sambhar.So much of sambhar na...Till now  u must have got sambhar taste. The journey to Trivandrum made us feel what is going to happen in kerala with the food. Train was just a trailor...picture abhi baaki h mere dost.

 We reached Trivandrum on 13 nov at 3 pm in noon. I have got Amritha hotel , ulloor for my stay which is in the center of the city in main market..that’s the best part of it. Rest all my classmates got  different hotels. Lodging room is good enough...

2 seater room..

neat and cleaned...

with a cupboard, table, two chairs, attached washroom.

So before joining TCS on 15 nov, it was time to expore the local market..On 14 evening i did it with my neighbour  room TCSers. Big bazaar at a distance of 5 min by walk from my hotel..that’s  the best.

Today was my first day at TCS..but i will write about  first day in my next post.

Bareilly to Trivandrum @ TCS : Ab Kanniyakumari door nahi

It was 29^th September, the day i was waiting for, after some how completing my B.Tech (Bachelor in tension of engineering and career halucinations). This was the day i got my TCS joining day as 22^nd Nov 2010 at Trivandrum (THIRUVANANTHAPURAM).

Yes Thiruvananthapuram, the capital of southest Indian state Kerala, which is at a distance of just 80 km from kanniyakumari (south end point of india). The city which is approx 3200 km away from my home(in bareilly) with a travel duration of 60 hours by an express train.

This beautiful district is considered to be the abode of the sacred snake Anandan and hence the name Thiru ‘anantha’ puram. India’s finest technology park is positioned in this district showing the progress in information and technology.

● It’s time now to adapt to latest fashion trend---LUNGIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII (It would be most difficult for me,so sorry kerala)

● It’s time now to learn Malayalam.

● It’s time now to say good bye to north Indian food.

● It’s time now to get addict to Idli sambhar- Idli sambhar- Idli sambhar in breakfast,lunch and dinner.

● It’s time now to greet someone as Namaskaram instead of Namaskar.

● It’s time now that people conversating infront of me and me just trying to get a little bit of it by just their expressions only.

From childhood i have only listened ‘Kashmir to Kanniyakumari’ about india. But now i can say ‘Bareilly to Trivandrum’...Ab Kanniyakumari door nahi. Wo kehte h na paisa kamane ke liye log kahin bhi ja sakte h !!!!
