Picture Time

Our team has the largest number of photographers than any other team in hyderabad.. :)
So Preethi and I got inspired and thought of taking some photographs..and who could serve as better models than ourselves...hehehehehe...Also as some great personality has said "Charity begins at home ".... so there we were doing modelling in front of the Graffiti wall..

This Graffiti wall is becoming very very famous and everyones fav picture spot..

The other day when we all girls came in Blue.. we decided to take a picture ..so now u know why we have so many photographers in our team.. Girls just need a reason to smile ,while guys just need a reason to click... :) So here we are "Ladies in Blue"

Here are our Ambassador's Francescaa (From Dublin) and Nikki (From Mountain View)

Decoration Spree

It's been a long time since we shifted in a new office.. approximately 4 months.. This office was not as "Colourful" as the previous one.. It had dull walls and a typical coporate setup..
So we thought of decorating "our home", our "Office" the way we like...
Hence there was "Go-Decon" competition, where each team was given certain amount of money and were asked to decide on a team theme for decorations :)
We were given 20 days to complete our decorations.. Every team came up with excellent ideas.
This was a great oppurtunity to display team player skills.. we enjoyed every moment of it..
One team took up the "Hollywood" theme and had all pictures of old and new hollywood movies displayed. They had one lane decorated as horrow zone, one lane as Love zone..
By the way this team Won the prize.

Another team took up "Jungle" theme , they had all trees and a "Tarzan" hanging on the trees.
Then there were themes like "Beach party", "Football", "Music","School days" , "Advertsing"
and finally the theme for our team was "Video Ghthere desk accordingly, while for the Area decorations we had posters of every game with a slogan written on it..
The main attraction was the Graffiti wall, for which I cut the logo for every game , while Sasi and Aruna did the spray painting..First we were doubtfull , about our idea... however once it was done it looked Awesome!!!
This is how it looked when we were working on it...

Mario was the game that I selected and my desk was decorated with Mario pictures. There was also this painting of Mario game which I made....here is the pic of how my desk looks now after the decoartion is complete..

This is what I put of on the roof above my desk...hehehehehe

This is how my desk looked after decoration was complete...

I also did Mario drawing on the white board... here it is.. "MY DESK"

here are the pictures of my other Team members desk...

IMAX Adventure

Yet another adventure...
We had a recruitement drive in IMAX (For those of you who dont know what IMAX is...Its a Multiplex). Few of us had volunteered.. and there we were, helping people to know about the vacanicies in our office.
It was an amazing experience, we got to meet various kinds of people.
I categorized them into various species:
1) Mr. Know It All - They actually thought we were dumb and they knew more than we knew :)
2) Mr. Lost - These were the kind of species which found themselves lost, and didnt know what was going on.. They strolled in and around our setup...
3) Mr.Desperate - These were the kind of species , who always carried their resume with them. Even on weekends when they came to watch a movie :)
4) Mr.Confused - These were the species which were completely confused..They had never heard of our company before :( ... here are few incidences
- Few people came over to ask us , when was the movie releasing
- Some came over to ask us the directions to the toilet ...yuuuuuuuuukkkkkkk
- Then some also came over, thinking that it was a studio setup and wanted there photo clicked with the bean bag....hahahaha

Overall it was a great experience... And ofcourse how can I forget to take a picture... here it is ..

6 Months

Its been 6 months and time just seemed to flew by...

I remember the first day at my Workstation
The warm and friendly welcome..
The colourfull walls around..
The table full of choclates, and soft drinks all around..
The lunch in the Cafeteria..
The variety of Food..
The friendly looking people..
For a moment I thought It was a Dream that came true..
I had my moments of laughter and also moments of Tears..
It gave me Great friends who will always be dear..
Love you for all that you do..
To make us all feel Special in everything we do..

Its a nice place, with lots of greenery, botanical gardens and indoor games. However the most exciting thing was the Swimming Pool..... when the temperature outside was above 35 degrees , swimming pool was a BIGGGGGGGGGGG soothing factor.........There were some cool water slides........

This one gave a waterfall effect..... I actually tried taking this snap 4 -5 times to get the perfect timing.
