I am having a very hard time to getting to play these very simple tunes right, probably a lot more practice will help me in getting it right.
Song Video
This song is a classical masterpiece, only now ever since I started with guitar, I am able to listen to and relish the beauty of iliyaraja’s music.
I would also suggest ‘Iliaya Nila’ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=owiXDr1xQ8Y , this song is classic too, the guitar strip in the middle is just too good.

Geek and his Guitar
I joined guitar class recently, for reasons unknown I really wanted to do something which is not related to computer science, I have been trying different stuff for a long long time and after a fairly satisfactory performance at photography, I turned my eyes towards music, especially guitar because some of my college friends were talking about it and I recently (read as 6 moths ago) watched Vaaranam Aaiyram. That was the right time when Suresh and Mathu were talking about joining guitar classes and the rest is history ( or at least I will try to forge some music history books to talk about my guitar life.. 
)
Its been a couple of weeks since I have joined, looks like the only good thing I know about guitar is that I am able to hold it properly and have been able to pick the right strings. The last class I attended, my teacher got very tired because he had to spend a lot of time to get the rhythm right. You can’t blame him, he hasn’t seen me as a student before, he should speak to my college Maths/ECE professors or my school Tamil teacher, they probably know how hard it is to teach me something which I have no idea about. But the good thing about guitar, which it doesn’t share with Tamil or other hard(useless) things is that I want to learn guitar, and never in my life did I ever wanted to learn Tamil. So, lets see how far I go with this new exercise.
I am now able to play a couple of movie tunes to some extent that people are able to recognize these as some kind of music, although they were not able to guess what music it was.
And these are my goals
- I have to learn to play guitar really well
- I have to learn to play “En iniya pon nila ve” Song
- Gotta find the train in which Meghna (sameera reddy) is traveling, and the rest will be history
I am a firm believer in having simple goals .. he he

Passed ZCE-wo-hoo-I am a certified PHP developer now
May 23, 2009 General, Technology
After days of preparation and studying, I at last took the courage the take the Zend exam last Monday (18th May). I have been preparing for this exam for quite some while, even though I have passed in all the mock exams, I was targeting for the ‘Excellent’ grade in order to confidently put myself in a position to take the exam.
About the exam
- This is exam full of trick questions. So don’t expect direct answers, there is always a trick around.
- The real exam can be a lot harder that the mock exams offered by php|architect
- The certification guide will cover a lot of basics of most of the units, but is not all; you will need to buy additional books and materials in order cover the complete exam syllabi.
Materials
I had the following study materials at my disposal, this doesn’t mean that you will need all of them if you are preparing for the exam.
- Professional PHP5 (Programmer to Programmer)
- PHP in Action: Objects, Design, Agility
- PHP: The Complete Reference
- (To get started) Professional LAMP : Linux, Apache, MySQL and PHP Web Development
- php|architect’s Zend PHP 5 Certification Study Guide
- 10 Online Practice Test Exams from php|architect
- Certification exam voucher
Zend sells the last three things in one package at a discounted price; you might want to check that out.
Benefits
It gives you a good sense of satisfaction and achievement. This to me is the greatest benefit. The preparation that I went through for this exam makes me feel like an expert in php. I don’t have to go back to the php manual for every odd function, now I can tell them by names.
Secondly it gives you recognition among the developers and others. They allow you to use a logo, which looks fancy on your resume (Checkout my CV). They also have your name listed in their yellow pages directory.
You can call yourself a Zend Certified Engineer, except when you are in Ontario, Canada for crazy reasons….
