These days I am in the preparation mode. Actually its already  a long break from job for me. And seriously I feel like i have lost touch with many of the basic and advanced areas of my profile. 

Yesterday I went for an interview, just received the call from the consultant so thought of giving it a try after such a long gap (1.5 years) and evaluate myself for my preparations to join the workforce.
After this interview I am able to conclude that seroiously I need to make more efforts and have more practical knowledge for it. Only theoretical knowledge is not going to work for me in coming out of my hybernation. Let me do mention, i was able to clear the written test which comprised of SQl, and LINUX.

But yeah the technical interview was much of the real time scenarios and practical approach. And here i missed out, the lost touch to work cost me by getting rejected in the interview :(
Not to be so sad, i am happy that I went for it, as it helped me in gaining confidence to get back.Thanks to that consultant for pestering me to attend it.

So after this experience of  mine, I have thought of writing one more blog which will be totally based on my learnings, my interview experiences...as i think it can take a lot rejections till i get final selection ;) , some helpful websites offering good stuff to read and learn, and so on....in all 'A studying blog' it will be. Blog name i havent thought yet ...readers any suggestions for the name are welcomed !!

My hubby, dear S is off to US for a week's official trip. In all the preparations of his visit, my first priority was to get the international roaming activated on his phone. And ghosh look at the charges 40rs/min for outgoing call and 30rs/min for incoming call for the airtel subscribers. I was most worried how we  would be able to contact each other. 
'VIBER' the free app on the playstore came to our rescue. It allows one to make free calls via internet. S's hotel is having free wi-fi connection, and yeah it has a great speed ..just the clause of free does not hamper its service quality :)
We talk every morning, evening, night to him. We do not feel like he is so far away from us. The good communication and internet connectivity resolved our all worries. It just feels like he is around us, whenever want to call we can call him without worrying for the international roaming.

Thankyou VIBER for making his visit a pleasant and economic one for us.

Those two weeks were so hard and frightening for me. Earlier Pari got stomach infection, and just it was settling down, one night she got 102 degrees fever for the whole night. I was really scared, mind was not getting what to do. Medicine I gave was not of much help. Whole night went on putting cold water stripes on her forehead, which she was resisting as much as she could. We all were waiting for the morning desperately. She was not able to sleep, only she demanded feeding. I was deep scared, dont know whenever anything happens to her i feel weak and scared from inside but pretend to be calm and strong to S and everybody. Somewhere the fear of something bad haunts me...God forbid those thoughts from my mind. 

Finally, in the morning we rushed to the doc. He was also concerned why she is getting sick so soon within weeks. Firstly she had viral last month, now this month she got loose motions and stomach infection, and now she has got this high fever. The doc recommended Blood test and Urine test for kido. Thankfully his medicines always suit Pari and on the completion of the dose she is healthy and happy. But this sickness, it breaks her diet.Everytime she learns to eat something new, this sickness takes her taste away.

The sample collection is really a hard task for me, be it the blood sample or urine sample. It is such a pity sight to see the pathologist take the blood sample from the little limbs of Pari. The sight of blood and her screams and tears makes me sad and distracted. 
By the way the urine sample collection is another story, totally funny. I have to ask her everytime if want to do 'shu-shu' , on saying yes I have to rush with the sample collection container. She saw that I am trying to make her urinate in it, next time she enjoyed. Point to mention, she never give sample in one go. Everytime she feel the urge to pee, she will ask about that container :D Quick learner :P

After the successful completion of sample and tests, so relieved to know that the reports are fine. She suffered from urine infection, and not malaria. Taking medicines, she is now perfectly well , touchwood..back to her routine and activities.

Now a days Pari has started biting :(
While I am in the kitchen she will come from the back and put her teeth on my thighs ....and really that hurts..Her new coming out teeths are making such a mess for me.
Congratulations!

Whoa, what an amazing feeling it is to get adsense on my blog. Actually during the early days of my blog, my request for adsense was rejected by google. Felt unhappy, but waited for having some materialistic posts on my blog......and the result is bang I got the adsense :)
I dont know if everyone feels so happy about it, or its me just so super happy. Anyways, now the question which arises is what is the meaning and use of adsense on the blog. In short, it is a means of generating revenue on each click on the the ads placed by google on the blog. Every time a reader lands on the blog and clicks on the adds present there, the google keeps a track of it, and I wil be get paid by google once i reach a certain USD as per their norms.And yeah the most important part is I cannot myself click on these adds else my adsense account is going to be disabled.

You Click , google pays :)
Hopefully someday my blog will be eligible to get paid !!
