@JAN'07

Its been long , i have written a long blog. I am starting it and i dont quite know how long it is going to be, but supposedly, it will be long enough. Ok , let me long start! Conscience: such an attention seeker. grr.. grr..

The end of January 07. My Spring Semester has started. Lots of work already! Lots of TODOs. Someone had warned me to be prepared for a *rude shock* in winter, and when it is ON , i am NOT at all finding it rude! Its just a pleasant surprise how the cold tries to make me feel "noseless"! :_) Of course, when i put some wet glossy look at my hair and walk outside, feels as if the threads of my hair have turned brittle! Believe me, its so much FUN! nothing RUDE! :P The part i hate about the weather is : its so much COLD only during the way to the campus n home. The moment you enter the building, you'd have to dispose your "WARM" clothes on your Research Lab and go onto your classes with Tee or Shirts alone! as if , it was never cold!!! What if , sometimes you are running sort of time for the classes! Ah well, take all your BULK within the classroom and hang it on your seat. NICE CUSHION! Well, some people might find adventure on getting to OPEN - PUT ON - OPEN clothes here n there! To me, thats RUDE! :)

One other good impact that the winter has done to me! NO SOMNOLENCE! YUP! I don't get sleepy anymore in class! [ i must live up to my words in that, cos the semester's just started ;) ].

I recently tried this experiment on one of the classes and it worked! I probably worked late night the day before! So, had this feeling i would get drowsy in the class that day. So, took my baby along with me! The class started, i was concentrating. I had this urge to start my baby but then restrained as it was NOT that necessary as i wasn't feeling drowsy at all. Amazingly, if it was really the power of my affection towards my baby, drowsiness showered on me after some minutes in the class. VOILA, started my baby, and browsed some frequenters like never before. It was like then, " OH! the class ended up so fast? " to my colleagues! :P

conscience: I shouldnt have done that! who are you cheating, Mr. ELF ? Ah, STOP that intuitions, i know! i know! :)
(Never mind, my conscience interrupts quite in a while , THEN and now while i am writing this BLOG.)

Days are good! Courses are nevertheless LESS boring! Research - they always are tedious! After some extensive paper reading and implementation during the semester break few weeks back, i have been at ease now. I foresee lotsa efforts to be put upon the research as days come by , but then, if i have to - i will. NO WORRIES ! :)

Apart from that : my usual lifestyle! it rocks! as always! I am updated with latest tech flicks going around, and we discuss it on one of the courses. Its fun! One of the other courses has piles of assignments/project/research and in fact , i hate to say : that is a part of my lifestyle too ;) [ aint it rocking enough ? :_) ]

A little fun fact: I have been listening to Jagjit's Gajals quite frequently since last few days and MAN! i really get "lamentable" at times. These songs are simply superb!
As for example: [ you'd love this song ]

" tum nahiin Gam nahiin sharaab nahiin
aisii tanhaaii kaa javaab nahiin "

( the same song with FULL LYRICS: http://jagjitsingh.info/tum-nahin-gham-nahin-sharaab-hindi/ )

What else: i think i pretty much summed up my where-abouts! :) And it really is so late for me to be waking up now!
Good night world!

LOL - strictly hindi! :)

"Jeevan ke safar mein rahi
Milte hain bhichar jaane ko
Aur de jaate hain yaadein
Tanhaayi mein tadpaane ko"

Confessions:

• I am not drunk right now! :)
• Kishore Kumar is SUPERB! i like his songs!
• NO NO .. i am NOT at all nostalgic. [Well, it isnt my time to get nostalgic on this song. Might be my DAD would have been.]
• http://66.45.233.12/Jeevan_ke_safar_mein_rahi.mp3
• Call me a LOVER , Call me INSANE .. Call me STUPID .. i admit , i am all of these! :P
• As always : i get time to blog when i am in pressure! lol , you guessed it right! I got a proposal due tomorrow. ;)
• aurr aakhir mai , mai ye kehna chahta hoon ki mujhe hindi nahi aata. [lolll]

Phir Milenge!
ELF

captured the moment!

"Sleep Dont Weep - Damien Rice" on the playlist. There is a red sky. My balcony has some inches of snow. The street lights is seeable from where i am blogging. The Lamp on my desk , the ambience it imparts to the moment of bliss i am having. I have a Pen / a report pad where i just scribbled something about "responsiveness" and "bandwidth efficiency" as the major factors on routing domain of wireless network protocols! [ **yawns** ]

And i am on my "PANTERA" tee shirt. On a tee , yes! i am NOT sweating at all! and there is this song that shuffled on the playlist.

I wouldn't want you to want to be wanted by me.
I wouldn't want you to worry you'd be drowned within my sea.
I only wanted to be wonderful, and wonderful is true.
In truth, I only really wanted to be wanted by you.

Well , thats quite a stupid song i think![The rat within the grain] But what the hell does it matter anyway ! He is so cool for this moment and i am enjoying my ride.. OH YES, i am!

Well , i must confess something now :
1. I asked a friend for some timeout to blog from my regular MSN session. Sorry! :)
2. One of my other friends is sick. GET WELL SOON!

Well , its amazing! and i ask one of my friends !

why is it so difficult if i have a time-frame to finish sth ?

thats the thing with creativity..
never try to frame it..never try to force it!

IMPRESSIVE!!! [ Now, i would call this part of the blog a little creative ] lol ...

" Rootless Tree - Damien Rice " - the music marks the end of the blog.

strange!

Hey ...

Thats so strange! I can hear voices , no ppl around! I can hear sounds nobody can.I know how it is on mars. I can feel how it feels like being on the bed of an ocean. I know what you are thinking while reading this! CRAP :P , isnt it ?

Ah, comeon! thats an old trick ! ;) tryin' to grab your attention to this boring blog again ! OH NO... ;-)

Alrite. I am with "nothing" today! It feels like i have left my creativity far behind! :P , and i do BLOG only when i SLUG! Poor ELF :( ! Life does quite take a U-turn every now n then , thats for sure. This week was a confusing week for me. I know , i want to get out of studies as early as possible , and i know , i would like to do some thesis works as well, in the area of my research. I went to talk with the professor and he says that i can go with the thesis only after his course, that is due next fall .[ He doesnt have this semester :( ] DAMN! if i go with the course option , probably , by may 2008 i would graduate , but then .. if i go with the thesis option , might be i would have to devote 2008 for all !!! Ah .. confusions , confusions ! as ever!

Well , it took me one day to come to a conclusion , me sticking to thesis option , and tryin' to finish early i.e the end of 2008 ?

OKAY .. i can wait ! what else have i been doing all this time , nonetheless.

Just Then, i came to realise , this spring session is going to be fun again ;) . OH YES! FUN FUN FUN !!! Procrastinator ELF !!! - FUCK YOU! [ well , thats what i would call myself at my mirror ]

And since, there is nothing constant in this world except "CH_N_E", [ you know it , fill in the blanks ( small brackets inside big bracket :P - just to exercise some of your brain cells again )] :P , thats as of my thought right now! As always, lets see ....

And thanks for taking some of your time reading these . Appreciated! :P

songs playing in my mind!

I was just checking around some Google Videos. Came up with this wonderful person who just hold me stunned with his presentation of songs, that i liked most.

And voila .. there was this other song too , one of my best ones.. David Gray " Sail Away "



Well , there is another one too .. OASIS , wonderwall! let me not pollute my blog with songs embedded like this , but yeah! this blog post is in appreciation to this guy! He sings so well.

just a thought!

why facades? lies? and false positives?
let know anyone how you feel for them!
you'll have a great life !!!
dont exaggerate , dont minify!

isnt it true ? just a thought!

You are what you think. You feel what you want!

I have been having mere headache since last night , when i pretty much drank too much it seems. I have papers to read and present tomorrow and i am in fact having hard times letting my eyes follow the words!

Suddenly, an idea comes into my mind! What better than having a good night SLEEP! :) Well, yes .. why not take rest, for my head , for my eyes;) ! Why try too hard when you just cant! Isnt it better to hold back the energy to study when i really can?

Hmm .. that leads me to this page !! The Power of Positive Thinking !! Amazing article it is. A MUST READ i must say!

killing oneself - a kindergarten story

take the air to the woods
admire the creation, mother nature!
a golf course nearby
a small pond within
those ducklings go "quack-quack"
his heart filled with wonders

the thaw - oh , is it going to snow again?
little johny wears his cap
the current of air passes him
he just ignores
relishes the moments as never before
or rather never after

peaches to the woods
babbles to the birds
little corporate he is - negotiates!
no one ever understood him, it seems
not even the woods, not even the birds
the duckling - what could she do?
she was as numb as little johny was!

johny looks up in the sky
the sun smiles at him
the trees throw twigs at him
the birds litter on his cap
with disgrace, he moves forward
the twig, there still is
he finds a reason to be there
he is happy .. happier .. happiest!
takes out a knife
starts playing with the twig
he explores yet another potential
he creates a shaft with a barbed point
he is a genius!

looks around
is there anyone who respects his creation?
no-one , infact no one ..
he looks at the sun again
a smile again, a wicked one
trees look at him astonished
the birds have flown away far
the duckling is indifferent now
little johny takes out the spear
uses it for what its best at.
oh yes! thrusts it into his heart
wow! he exclaims!!!
that was indeed a sharp one
i respect my creation
i do
i do
i ..
little johny falls asleep
forever!
