Pet Shop Boys - Can you forgive her?
One of my favorite songs of the 1990's. How can I ever forget The Pet Shop Boys. Just found a high quality video on youtube. So here it goes into my blog. Just love the song.
Still remember the days, when I used to watch the video of this,, Go West and Liberation on MTV.
Good old childhood days. Reminds me of loads of things.

Hyderabad Memoirs Part 2
I had been to Hyderabad, to attend my cousin's marriage. So we went by train. It was an amazing ride. No second thoughts on that. We arrived at the Kachigudda station early morning. Bride's relatives had come to the station to collect us.
I was carrying my Tourister travel bag, which was rather huge and heavy. It had clothes of me and my father and let me tell you, it contained nothing that expensive items.
So when we landed up at this station, people were waiting to collect all our suitcases and load it into the pickup van. But I was quite reluctant to give my luggage. I wanted carry my own luggage, I did not want any helper to load and unload my luggage. That was my point.
But since we, being from the groom's side, are well in for a royal treatment. We were not supposed to lift our luggages but instead come like kings and queens or whatever, which did not looked apt to me. You can imagine the scenario, me reluctant to let my luggage go, at the same time, the bride's relatives not letting me lift my luggage.
My cousin's thought it was comedy and started laughing. Infact they made fun of me even whilst returning from Hyderabad.
Apart from this, two other things happend which I can recollect.
I was trying for a cross domain transfer in my current company itself, so a friend of mine who was leading a team called me whilst I was in Hyderabad telling me to come for a one on one meeting with his manager. I was all set to resign from the company, but since I was in Hyderabad, told him, I would be back to Bangalore and then discuss upon it.
Also, during the time of the marriage, I think it was Saturday afternoon, precisely, I got a call from Bangalore from an anonymous company. Never heard of that company before. Somehow I said yes to the HR guy that I am ready to take up an interview over the internet, via gtalk.
So when I came back to Bangalore, I was kicking myself for saying yes to a company which I did not want to join, and after having two offers on hand. Somehow reluctantly I took interview over Gtalk and then was interviewed by two Italian people and ended up liking the idea of joining that company. It was located on the other side of the town. But I did not mind though. My profile was later dropped. I feel the salary may be the reason.
