Yes, I dont have work to do, that is why I write programs

For the past few days, I have been working on Activity Log system for our Sales Consultancy department.

Techpiece

It has been for a while since I wanted to be a more serious blogger. While telling about my life, opinion and feeling on this blog serves my emotional and psychological needs pretty well, I always had hoped to have a higher purpose of existence on the Internet.

(..not) All My MSN Nicks :)

I chat quite often, although not a hardcore. I use MSN. Few of my friends said that I often have my User Friendly Name hinting around Love, Being Single, Girlfriend etc. I disagree!

When I first started out at my job, I moaned “I was born to excel, not to do Excel”. I didn’t know why I had to do silly things like adding and removing specific data from a worksheet, merging tables, rerepresenting data in a new format and so on.
At the point when it became unbearable, [...]

Awakening of a dormant dream

Although it makes my life seems very dull to others, I benefit a lot from my part time Master course in Information Security. The gain is not just in the form of hard knowledge, but also subtle understanding of many aspects of different functions of the world. The latter is the reward exclusive to part-time course.
Classmates are from [...]
