Some of you may be fed up by the amount of talking that we did and do about our one-month internship at Huttambakkam. Another bunch of you are interested in knowing the story, but haven't had the chance to catch up with us. Yet another bunch of you heard about it and are burning with curiosity. (Okay, so maybe that last group is in a minority, nay, non-existent.)
For the convenience of all and sundry, here's an introduction on what this blog is going to be about.
From mid-April to mid-May, Boltu and myself worked at a company we like to call Huttambakkam, for a variety of reasons:
For the convenience of all and sundry, here's an introduction on what this blog is going to be about.
From mid-April to mid-May, Boltu and myself worked at a company we like to call Huttambakkam, for a variety of reasons:
- A play on the actual name of the place the company was situated in.
- The fact that being on the outskirts of the city, we passed quite a few huts before getting to it.
- It being so far from civilization, where we lived, our consistent desire to just rent a hut there for the period of the one month.
During our days there, we were exposed to not only excellent work, but also the most esoteric, mind-boggling, nature-defying and maddening species existent. The fact that we named all of them, and even invented back-stories and movie settings for a few of them, must not show you how jobless we were, but instead enlighten you about just how irritating they were!
Since it isn't possible to rationally explain the characteristics of each new speciosa in normal conversation, this blog was started as an attempt at consolidating our near-encyclopedic categorization of said specie.
Of the reader, we only ask that you laugh heartily when you feel like it, ignore us when you feel we're overstepping bounds, and to always keep in mind that this was only a source of entertainment, nay, our only source of entertainment, in the long journey to Huttambakkam, and that we really mean no ill. There is no malice hidden in this post or those to come; it is all in good fun. I'm sure the very species we talk about must have had names or colourful characterizations for us, anyway.
Let the guffaws begin.
