secret
When you’ve scaled unprecedented heights, climbing up a bit more looks like a chore. Soon you grow tired of it and jump.
The secret lies in climbing down safely and proceeding towards a new mountain.
Think about it.
she
The more she wept, the more she wanted to weep… The more tears she shed, the more miserable she became… The more she ran away, the more she wanted to cling to it…
Her body then shriveled up, and she died.

She could have just said, “fuck off!” and gotten along! Why does life acts that way?
I happen to know someone who has a huge appetite for gossip, bitchiness, misunderstandings and penises.
(It’s sarcastic, actually!)
the itch
In my case, the itchiness to write is inversely proportional to the number of days left before exams begin. :P
satire
There are three kinds of people in this world:
- Those who understand satire.
- Those who don’t.
- Those who choose to ignore it.
Some politicians fall in the third category, and my mom falls in the second!
o.s
Disclaimer: OS here does not mean Operating Systems. It means Open Source.
Open Source. For the layman, here is the definition: Open source describes practices in production and development that promote access to the end product’s source materials.
The Operating System I use (Ubuntu) is open source. The blogging software I use (Wordpress) is open source. The Office Suite I use (OpenOffice) is open source. The instrumental music I listen to (eg – Fairytale) is open source. And now, the study material I use for mathematics, is open source!
Open source is the revolution of, not just the future, but also the present! Hail Ho!
Project file? Done. HTML/SQL file? Done. All now remains is the physics and the maths assignment. Easy.
Happy that things are finally happening.
Its Deflation!
The telecom sector in India is undergoing a revolution. Instead of rising, the service charges are actually falling!
We already have th cheapest call rates in the world (1p/sec… How much lower can it get? MTNL already has a plan of ½p/sec!) Then we have companies fighting for the lowest SMS tariff. Currently, the crown is held by Reliance, which offers SMS at 1p each, valid for 30 days, with a recharge of Rs. 11. It is closely followed by Vodafone (20000 SMS free for 30 days @ Rs. 89) and Airtel (700 SMS free per day for 30 day @ Rs. 88). Reliance is the cheapest, because no person worth his salt can send close to 20000 SMS in a month (Ask me, I could manage only about 5000!)
And then there is the all mighty (almighty?) MTNL. Starting March 1, it has unveiled a new broadband plan – 512kbps with unlimited data download for only Rs. 600 a month! Plus, all the subscribers of the 256kbps unlimited plan are upgraded to the 512kbps plan automatically, at no extra cost!
This is going to increase the piracy rates in Delhi and Mumbai (where MTNL is present) multifold! :P
farewell…
Fourth of March, Two Thousand Ten – a day that will always remain in my memory forever. It was the day of farewell… Farewell to the APS class of 2010. 962 days of being in college – with all those memories and incidents – major and minor. All of it has, finally, come to an end.
It was a hearty experience, this college! It’s got to be, for you taste freedom for the first time, isn’t it? New friends, new accquaintences, new relationships… All of it and more. New philosophies, new tastes, new experiences… All of it and more.
Funny, isn’t it? When you forge new bonds, you feel that you’ll keep them with you forever. And then you become sad on the last day of college. When you’ve already decided to maintain those bonds forever, then why be sad? Think about it.

A few words about the farewell ceremony though… It was a very hearty affair. The juniors had organised it very well (hem hem!). It was in the auditorium, which was a privilege in itself! I delivered a speech, in which I talked about the memories that have come to be associated with college, and friends. It was well received, I must say! Everyone laughed, everyone remembered things, and everyone applauded!
It was then followed by title-giving-ceremony, where the junior gave us “titles”… I was given that of Mr. Robotic Mind or something… (Didn’t listen for I was too busy clicking pictures! :P)
Then came the PJ King competition, where Dhruv won by a w i d e margin! A dance party followed, where everyone enjoyed and I clicked pictures (again!).
It was fun, yes. A special thanks to all my juniors for making the day memorable. :)
PS: On my way back, a momentary distraction resulted in my falling off some 18 stairs at the Tilak Nagar Metro Station. I survived, with minor scratches here and there; but the gift I’d received at the ceremony could not. It got smashed into two pieces :(
The Guide
Have you read The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy? If yes, kudos! If no, then read it as soon as possible… You’ll love it!
Try searching “answer to life, the universe and everything” (without the quotes) on google. You will get a surprising result. For more details, read The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy.
What do you get if you multiply six by nine? The answer is forty-two. Shocked? Read The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy for more details.
Somebody who can stay in control of virtually any situation is somebody who is said to know where his or her towel is. Why? Read The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy to find out.
The Guide acquired a cult status in the generation that preceded mine. Please read it, for after reading it, you will tell me – So long, and thanks for the fish. Yes, another reference to The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy.
Read it. Read it. Read it.
lot.of.things
Lot of things happened when I restarted writing here. My flair for writing has returned. I have to deliver a speech in college the day after tomorrow, and the content is coming up rather nicely. :) Also, something happened that didn’t happen for even a single day when I was out of action… The site went down yesterday! Another thing.. My freakiness (if it’s a word) for web-design has returned, which is a really bad thing. :P
Studies are going on as usual. I’m on physics for the moment, studying about pn-junctions, transistors, amplifiers, rectifiers et al. The amount of mathematics associated with them is mind boggling! Regular college has ended, but the numerous infinitesimally small tasks associated with it (read: getting files checked, getting assignments submitted) are far from over. No wonder college sucks!
Yesterday, I tested my twitter account via sms. But what to write there? I’m still thinking. Any ideas?
anon.
i’ve started to long for an anonymous virtual presence, much like freya.
There are times when you seriously like to bitch. backbite. and be mean. without making your victims know that. and then deriving secret pleasure in knowing that you have successfully ridiculed them in front of the world.
alas! all the people i would like to ridicule already read my blog!
why can’t one have all the things in life?
Edit: ‘rant’ is the word i wanted to say..
Finally, after much procrastination and other types of putting-things-off things, I have updated the About page! View it.
