Too too much lukhagiri these days .. so many posts just testify the statement ...

Party !!!

Yup .... Piyush threw a dinner yesterday ...... he got two admits, one from UIC and one from UOA. I am also waiting for my UOA decision, but thats not the point. We went to the favourite IIT place : Feeds; formerly Flavours of India. Had lots of chicken and then I had coffee and then we all had ice creams at JB's. I have felt lately that i am loosing my taste for chicken.

I do not know for what reason but yesterday I felt like eating vegetarian food. But then the urge was not so much as to make me switch for real :-) .... but its growing by the day. May be I have had too much non veg lately and I am kind of bored with it ... who knows ...

well scheduled later for the day is a meeting with my BTP guide. And yes one particular thing about today is that this is the first working saturday in my B.Tech life .... we are following friday's time table today to make up for the lost fridays ....

I will be uploading the party pics but the problem is that yahoo photos is too slow. I have registered with fotopic.net, but I need a browser that can work with java to be able to upload the whole folder. So right now I am downloading hotjava.

Thats all for now

Some success

Finally got some success in my BTP. I could extract the sync information out of the NTSC signal using a novel cross correlation method :-)

good to see some of my ideas actually working. For some reasons in the past i felt as if i am not capable of creative ideas !!!

well lot of work still remains to be done.... its just that most of the things should follow fast after this step

as to the other things in life .. nothing much .. no new movie after "Meet the fockers". Have to attend a seminar now ... sounds really boring

signing off

Finished !!!

Just finished "The Street Lawyer"..... turned out to be quite good. I liked the element of change occuring so fast in the protagonist's life. I had not heard much praise of the book, but it was quite enjoyable. Now I am upto my BTP. These days I think a lot about my project work but sadly do very little. Lets hope things change fast !!!

Sunday !!!

A typical sunday. I feel that there is a lot of work to be accomplished, get up in a mood to do just that and here I am in the evening with nothing much accomplished. The day went by reading "Street Lawyer" by John Grisham. One good thing about the book is the way first year at college is referred to. Everyone comes to college thinking of accomplisihing something great and by the time we graduate everyone starts running for money or a fast track career. Well I personally think that it takes a lot of guts to not do that :-(

BTW most of the tawang pics have been uploaded and in case someone is really interested in it, here is a link to the yahoo photo album

Tawang Photo Album at Yahoo Photos

Some great pics taken by Groys camera. Not very vivid though as we were really low on memory space (had only about 16 Mb of space). I still have to write some entries on the tawang trip but that will be only after this week.

Also saw the movie "Shall we dance". Brilliant it was. In particular I enjoyed the conversation there was between Gere's wife and the detective. She asks why people marry after all that they know about marriage and then gave a great answer herself. She said that we marry to have a witness to our life. There are a billion people out there living the same life and when someone marries, the other person is there to make sure that his life does not go unnoticed. That he'she will always be there and it matters !!!

Thats it for the day then .....

(Great that I am here for two consecutive days :-) ... lets see how long it goes like this )

Back to Blog

So finally I am back to my blog after a long long time. Its not that i have not had anything to write about in the past, but its just that I somehow always manage to not get the time for the same :-)

Well returned from a 4 day trip from Tawang (Arunachal Pradesh) on tuesday early morning around 2 AM. Will be writing a detailed account to the wonderful trip soon. After that it was just making up for the gap in apping and BTP.

Yesterday went to city to try out the newly opened "The Yellow Chilli". Yup the Sanjeev Kapoor's restaurent. As it turns out, they will be opening up in March 05 and therefore could not get anything more than a cup of excellent coffee at CCD. Later on had a wonderful meal at Feeds and for a change, I had a purely veg meal. It tasted great.... esp the khatte aalu and the vegetable biriyani.

I am reading Gandhi's autobiography and so this experiment with veg food really gave me a lot to think about ......

thats all for now ...
