If you are a cricket fan, you cannot miss out the latest season of IPL which is happening currently in South Africa. And, if you miss TV for some reason, watch the matches online LIVE from here.
Interesting to see Microsoft Silverlight lighting up the site.
On a side note, the team I support (CSK) is low on the points table, but I’m sure MSD is capable of turning this around. What do you think?
April 9, 1983 : It was a fine morning in the town of Tiruppur where a middle class business man was tensed, and looking nervous. His wife was admitted for delivery, and both were praying for a male child for 7 years after their 2nd girl was born.
He jumped with joy when the nurse came out with a little boy on her hands to show his treasure. He went ahead and expressed his happiness to all his friends, and family. Soon after the little boy was brought home, he was considered as an angel to his 2 beautiful loving caring sisters. They did almost anything for him.
When the boy started going to school, it was his sisters who got him ready for school, right from putting shoe polish, to combing his hair. His mom used to take him to school very early in the morning, and wait in the bus stop for the school bus much before anybody else in the village.
When the boy started growing up, his dad had developed a lot of dreams. He dreamt his boy study a bit, and at least becoming an engineer. He just went to high school(SSLC), and never attended college. He wanted to see his son being an engineer.
But here his son is. But God had different plans for the dad, he was such a lovely person. God thought he will place him in heaven, just near him. He was not able to see his dream come true, but his wife made sure she is going to make anything and everything to get her husband’s dream come true. It might be a very small dream, but for a person coming from such a background (wealthy, but not literate) it is a very big thing.
26 years have passed, not really sure what I’ve achieved other than fulfilling my dad’s dream. Much life awaited, and it should be more challenging than ever.
