Today I am very sad and smiling too. Why,
My Siebel certification exam was today which I had failed due to 1 question. Criteria was there will be 70 questions and minimum passing marks will be 70% which is 49 right answers.
Today morning I had finished two sample test papers and in both I got 48 right answers. Also in final exam I got 48 and missed the crtification by 1 right answer. I dont know how this happened but it just happened today with me.
I will again try to get certification in April end.
Best of luck piyush

Last weekend we went to Rameshwaram, Maduri and trichy. It was really a very gud experience being there and feel close to god. we started from chennai on 29th December in train to Rameshwaram.Train dropped us at rameshwaram around 6 AM in morning.First step at rameshwaram station I was feeling like what a place is this (Actually Railway Station looks like some set of 70’s Hindi movie). From there we hired an auto and directly went into town searching for a hotel. But all the hotels were booked and finally after 2 hours of search we got some so so hotel at very high price of Rs.600. But we dont have any other choice so we decided to check in. After being relaxed for half an hour we changed the clothes and ready to go to the dham (temple).
There is a standard procedure for pooja. First you have to go sea beach and take bath than without changing your clothes you enter into the temple and there are 22 kund (ponds). You have to take bath with water of every kund and every kund water tastes different. After that you went into the temple. It was really a big fun doing all this big procedure :) and moreover all our tiredness was gone.
From there we went to some more places in Rameshwaram. There are about 5-6 more places to visit and we hired one auto for seeing all those places. Firstly we went to some temple. From there we decided to go to Dhanushkoti(The South end of India) but auto was not agreed to go there because the place is totally destroyed by a cyclone in 1964 and there is no road to went there but he agreed to take us to as much near as much he can. We went to somewhere near to dhanushkoti and there I have enjoyed with silence of nature and sea. From there we went to other places in rameshwaram. Finally we came back to hotel room around 4 PM.
Now we were planning to either go to maduri and stay there or move to maduri early morning and stay in rameshwaram that night, and we decided to stay.
Early morning on 31st we hired the sumo and moved to maduri. The way was too gud and we basically did timepass with playing cards. We reached maduri around 10AM morning and went to the most famous Meenaxi temple. Meenaxi temple is really huge one temple and really too much big we got tired just after completing around 30-40% of the temple, also we have to leave for trichy on same day so we decided to move. From meenaxi temple we moved to some more places in maduri basically temples and one museum.
We left maduri in evening around 5PM and take bus for trichy. We reached trichy around 9PM and checked in a hotel around 10.We relaxed for some time and went for dinner. After dinner we were thinking what to do on New Year eve as there was nothing to do at all. We celebrated new year with some pepsi and snacks and suddenly everyone’s phones rings up for wishes from their friends. Next morning we hired a cab to travel trichy. There are some very gud temple at trichy also. I like the Rock ford temple, it have 437 stairs to reach the main temple. 
In evening we left trichy for Chennai and reached Chennai next day morning and back to work.
All in all it was really very gud trip and I enjoyed a lot with my friends it was much much better trip than my expectations.

On 18th December I had completed my one year in chennai. Away from home working, you never know how fast time flies by.
It has been my one year in the metro city chennai. When I think back what changes I had gone through, I got one answer. I had grown up a bit,is it true…I thinks I need to grow up more. But still I had been changed.Now I am much mature towards life, not like college life, we have to plan for present and future. I started giving priorities to stuffs.
In my whole year in chennai I feel chennai is a good city to live. Climate here is its only problem. Life is pretty simple here no showbiz, even shopping malls get closed at 9PM.Initially.When I was planning to come to chennai I searched a lot on internet about chennai and asked a lot of people. people have negative thoughts about chennai.It was really very hard to adjust in chennai in first few weeks specially when we have to move from one place to another frequently for our different trainings. But then slowly things settled.
Now I am here from past 1 year and I enjoyed every bit of it.
I dont know how long I have to be here, may be I will write another post next year about my 2nd year in chennai or may be life takes me to somewhere else.
