Its 3:30 am in the morning and we three (me, lavlu da and morshed) are still working as we have a release of our group bangla blog tomorrow. we are running against time but having lots of fun. We are doing pair programming, reviewing each other work done so far and finding bugs and solving them. Don’t know when we will go to bed, our office will start 8:00 am in the morning. so planning for a quick nab for atleast 3 hours. Music is very loud and fueling our engine to work so late in the night. We are all having coffee and tea to fight with our sleep.

lets hope we can finish up our target task and make this effort successful.

I have forgotten when I last wake up 6:30 am in the morning to prepare myself for office. Actually last two years I used to go to bed at 7:00 am every morning after working whole night and get ready for office around 2:00 pm. It’s just like reversing my daily routine now. But I am happy to change my daily routine for a good purpose. At last I am going to get more time for my family and friends.

So let me get in to the details how my first day at “somewhere in…” went:

I woke up at 6:15 am in the morning and finally get out of the bed at 6:45 am. I started for office at 7:30 am and after having my breakfast at a restaurant nearby, I reached “somewhere in…” at 8:10 am. Though I was the first member of my R&D team to attend the office but I could not beat Arild on arrival. My day started with a discussion about the business model of somewhere in.. and the core objective of the R&D team. Around 11:00 in the morning Arild called a meeting for the new R&D team with 10 members including Me, Hasan, Lavlu, Morshed, Emon, Rossen, Rhythm, Yameen, Mishu and Ajanta. I must say this team just rocks. In a single day we came so close that it gave me the comfort level I was always looking from my team. I also received warm reception from everyone in the company. It is nice to be a part of the BOBs (Best Of Bangladesh).

We had a two hours long meeting and after that we went for our lunch. After lunch I started with my PHP team to discuss the current status of the team and to set our next milestone. I am excited to work on my first localization project. As I can’t type Bangla that well, I faced little bit problem to work fast. I spent most of my time staring at my keyboard rather than typing code. In the afternoon I had a great time playing cricket with my colleagues. I just had a great day in “somewhere in…” and I forgot that the office time is far over. I got out of the office around 7:30 PM.

It was an amazing day for me with so much fun and excitement and I hope to continue to enjoy my moments more and more every day. Actually that’s why everyone in “somewhere in…” is focused to do.

We create colorful moments…
