Needed to write a post on 2013 towards the end. Somehow finally, managed myself today to sit and write this post!
As usual, at the beginning of every year, I am pondering on how fast the last year too has gone in a jiffy. Moved my base from Chennai to Bangalore; shifted jobs; Helped a client in solving a problem that had been troubling them for more than a year. Learnt a lot on and off work. Met a lot of new people and shared interesting thoughts. A new country that added to my visited-list was South Africa.
Got my first android phone - Galaxy Grand - birth day gift from wife. But somehow not comfortable with the 5 inch screen and weight; exchanged with my appa's Galaxy Young - for it will be much useful to him, as his regular usage involves both hands.
After 2007, re-started my car trips to Salem - for I have never driven Chennai-Bangalore or Chennai-Salem stretches to this day.
A lunch-table chit-chat turned to a very quick and memorable trip of Yercaud on one fine day at Salem. Deepavali at Salem, family functions at Salem and Chennai helped to connect back with a lot friends and relatives.
Read a lot of books in the year which include - The Oath of Vayuputras, Outliers, Design of Everyday Things, The Lost Symbol and portions of The Man Who Knew Infinity.
Now for the new year resolution - jogging / walking daily. I have already been following my walking course on and off for the past 2 years, just made a resolve to make it a daily habit. Also, planning one book a month policy - started with Jaya by Devdutt Pattanaik now.
And last but not least, able to make a quick-planned trip to Tirupathi on the eve of New Year!
I hope 2014 will be even more promising, challenging and interesting.
Wish you an interesting and happy 2014!
