X & Y Chromosome


I have started to believe that I am not cut out for an IT job. It really is not getting to be my cup of tea. Either the tea has been over-boiled or it has become too cold to drink.

I want to work into something where get to interact with the actual market rather than interacting with this intelligent machine!

The biggest problem that exists right now, apart from recession, is to take the plunge. The apprehensions and other social responsibilities are a big barrier. Plus our society where women entrepreneurs are not highly encouraged. It is astonishing to see that men in our society are still confused about the skill set of women. Who are the men who shake a leg greater than their respective women. I feel women work more, are more multi-tasking and pick-up things faster.

I was reading this article in the Asia magazine that talked about evolution of a cell into a child, where it said once the baby grows that his Y chromosome becomes active(boy) or inactive (girl). The intelligence, the demeanor, the ability to learn it all starts there. So I think when the leg of X is broken we get Y , which is quite logical to speak for itself that why men behave like they do :)

Summers of 2009

It is such a scorching heat in Mumbai and the moment I step out of home, it feels that I am entering the oven and all set to be baked, considering I am already oiled up due to my skin texture.
Managing life without A.C feels like an alien concept. I remember the times when we were kids and used to work around with coolers & fans only. The moist air of air-coolers was such a delight especially with the smell of cologne thrown in by my dad. Today it looks like we were living in cave man's age. I feel I was born with an AC around me and if someone asks me to move out in sun without an AC vehicle, I just cannot do it. I feel the sun rays will penetrate into my skin and blast me from inside with their heat rays. And the glaring light will blast my eyes and my brain !
Quite strange, but its not just the heat in the physical system of body, but this heat enters our mind and so more heat is experienced among peers as well.
I wish we have rains soon and we could get a whiff of cool breeze in and outside office :)
