I wanted a complete toolset when I moved out of my parent’s home. Until then, I used my father’s set. He had them collected for a long time. I borrowed some from him, but I also built my toolbox. I will probably write a post on other tools. But here is the first one, and it is about power tools.
We celebrated Echo’s 3rd year with us. He joined the family on 20th March 2022. We can’t imagine a life without him now. Anju baked special cakes for them. Both Echo and Pathu loved it.
I love driving. I love company, but I also love driving alone. I have not driven alone in a long time. Last week I did. I drove around 500 KMs all by myself, and I loved it. It reminded me of my first solo drive to and back from Coorg, which included a night drive. Maybe because it was solo, and I left Thrissur around 3 AM.
So slowly, I am going out and meeting friends. Thanks to them for inviting me. Given how much time I used to spend meeting friends and acquaintances before COVID-19, the current amount surprises me. But I will try.
This year marks my twentieth year of engineering practice. I got my first actual salary in Jan of 2003 from Infosys. So it has been 20 years. It will take several posts to explain this twenty years. For now, I will list some things about which I might write in detail later.
News this week was very disturbing and heart-wrenching. One is from IIT Bombay, where a Dalit student committed suicide, and another is about Bangalore’s Jain university students’ very casteist mad ads play. All in the same week. How is it our educational institutions are failing so badly?
