Superman is back!

 It's been a while. Last post had come on January 26th, and a lot has happened, some things good, some things bad, well gladly most of them are good. For starters, I got converted to Amdocs pay roll from Magna Infotech, so that's like a personal milestone. Another good thing happened is more settled at work with no night shifts since quite a while. Also another good thing is I joined the gym finally! Went to my first ever aerobics class and also learnt a few Bollywood dance steps.

 Cricket, well yes that's what I blog about most of the time. Mumbai Indians won the IPL this year, 2013 defeating CSK in finals. Sadly it was Sachin's last IPL, but well...all good things come to an end. Before IPL, India spanked the Aussies, 4-nil in the test series at home, it was a series where Shikhar Dhawan came good and the emergence of Sir Ravindra Jadeja. Currently champions trophy is going on in England. India beat Sri Lanka in the semis today, to meet England in the final, it has been a boring and dominating performance from India throughout. Somehow, I feel, this India team is equal to the team Australia was in Steve Waugh era, and it will dominate the cricketing world for a while.

 What else do I blog about, well Samsung launched Galaxy S4, it's pretty pricey, but I gotta say it's quite worth it. I did get a chance to play with it and it's amazing. Apple came out with it's iphone 5, but it still has the boring UI it had all these years. iOS 7 seems fresh, but speculations are it has been inspired from various places. Well those things are gonna be there forever in the tech world.

  Well talking of technology. Courseera.org is a fabulous site I have been using to take courses. It led me to learn Python and it's fun. Always dreamt of being a programmer, surely learning some programming these days.

 Well, finally coming back to the subject. Today I saw Superman- Man of Steel. And yes...at the end of the movie I did feel like flying back home with my fist in the air. On a serious note, it's a good movie, has a story, well logical story to give some credit. Good action ....and most importantly, Superman learnt how to wear the underwear ;) . It's definitely worth a watch. Well speaking of worth a watch, I also saw, Now You See Me,  last Sunday, that's pretty good too, only the ending is a but dull, but good fun. One movie to watch in my list is, The Dark Knight, many say it is the best super hero movie ever, well I din't like it the bit of which I say the first time, because everything is in dark environment, which I don't like, will see it again though..

 Global Warming...hmmm summer was too hot in India, it's raining like hell now. Cloud bursts in Uttarakhand, lots of lives lost. Too much damage, well it's easy to say things, everyone should try to give their bit and help the ones affected, after all they are also Indians and more importantly humans like us.

  Manchester United. I enjoy having debates about it with my colleagues in office. Well they did win the EPL this year, but the legendary Sir Alex Ferguson retired and how good the new guy is...lets keep fingers crossed. Jose Marinho  ....hope I spelled right is back to Chelsea to add some spice to EPL. Bayern Munich is currently the best team in the world....gosh too bad I have never seen a single match of theirs :(

 Finally, the funny thing about the new Superman movie is Superman and bad guy hit each other through buildings and iron rods, but nothing happens to them. And...how does Superman kills the bad guy...by simply  twisting his neck....that even we can do :P :P
