Am back with another blog. Thanks Roselin for your comment. Gave me the encouragement to put in a new entry.
Chennai Kickstart is over... So whats next? "AJ024"... Wondering what this encrypted code mean??? Its.. "Advanced Java 024". The name of our batch at Cognizant and by the words of my batchmate Sriram, "The" Batch. Comprising of 24 people, though we shrunk to 22 at the end of two months long training period, our batch was a community of enthusiastic youngsters put together in a single classroom for the mere reason of... "Celebrating Work"(Cognizant's Ex-Caption).
I still remember day one, sitting at a corner wondering how it would be to spent two months with these 21 people I didn't know (I had introduced two of my batchmates, Sathya and Anjali in my previous blog) who come from different place. But at the and of our training, we became one big group of friends.
Our batch can be called a prototype of our sub-continent. Albeit at Chennai, we had people from different states and different languages. First among them, our Rep.. Sandip Chandarana (Rappai, as we call him). He knows.. well, I dont exactly know how many languages he knows. A Banglore born, Tamil Nadu brought up, Gujarathi. Next is Sriram, Gujarathi brought up Tamilian. Not to mention, Mallu Anju, Telugu Srini, Chaithu, Srikanth and Geddada, Urdu Hasi, Kannada Goje, Chennai born and brought up Mallu Ani, "Vat are u speaking Naansense" Ammu, Chennai born brought up Telugu Sathyendra(appu as said by Anju), Jharkandhi Praveen Kumar Singh, Sourashtran Sathosh and the rest Tamilians Sudar, Lakshmi, Sathya, Mohan Raj, Dinesh, Anu, Gnanavel, Bhavani, Vignesh.
Two months went away in no time, just happy and happening. Starting from the boring sessions to the online tests and the fourth floor lunch in hot sun and MFRP and the movie "Kisna", we had the most of fun. And the round of treats, viz., Sriram's B'day treat, First Salary Dutch treat, McRennett Pasteries and so on. Above all these was the fun we had during the last closure treat at Ravi Resort. Can't forget those good times we had together. In a single word our batch can be described to be always "Rocking".
I had all the fun that anybody can have during a training period. May be it was because of the realisation that fun cannot be repeated the same way again. After eighteen months now, those days stay as pleasant and beautiful days in my memory. Today Chennai is not a foreign land, but a place with a big group of known people called "friends". All thanks to my training. Thanks Cognizant for "AJ024" and thanks to my batchmates for being there.
I can keep going on and on.. but I prefer my entries to be small. So Will come up soon with another blog.
