Some Mixed Feelings ...

This was the last cpl of days, some mixed feelings ...

SE exam (16.00 hrs to 17.30 hrs ) :

It was a '*$&)%%#@$&@#^@#' paper ... I went to the exam room at 16.10 hrs and wrote all what I could by 16.20 hrs, but I couldnt get up at that instant itself coz of some crap ...

1. I was sitting in the first bench.
2. I see left, I could see Santosh Raju and Saraschandra going all guns blazing ...
3. I see right, I saw Sugandh and Sukesh drawing some crap with a PENCIL !!! ..
4. Then to the extreme right, was Anand, who was in his usual spirits, cant say anything frm tht.
5. I turned around to see Bull writing (fuck) ... I've never seen him write like tht in a long time :P

So, I was sitting there till arnd 17.10 hrs when I got fed up and finally left the room to see trappi , who btw said tht he screwed up the paper bigtime, which gave me some much needed relief.

Thursday :

I woke up at 6.30 am in the morning, god knows how ... I realize tht the PC is behaving in a strange manner ... What followed was a problem which I still cannot understand...

- Around 25 times, the system hangs / restarts from 06.30 am to 06.45 am.
- I cant play a game
- I cant play a movie with VLC .. it hangs if I do so ...
- If I try it with Winamp, the screen goes blank and comes blank .. this process goes on for 5 - 6 times and then the system restarts ...
- I cant play even Solitaire ..

I remembered ivy whose PC started giving beeping sounds at 3.00 in the morning .. :)) . So, I finally decided to install XP again. Installed successfully, but the same problem in a smaller fashion repeats itself ... :(

So, in the afternoon, evening, and most part of the night, it was some chatting, watching FRIENDS, random listening to songs, and doing BTP .. (finally)

Bushi finally gave the Felicity T-Shirt .. but crap, I cant wear it coz its of a smaller size ...

Friday :

Went to the SE and robotics classes in the morning, watch a lil more of FRIENDS till the afternoon, and then did the BTP again till evening, when I went to play football .. it was surprising tht a pretty gud number of ppl turned up ...

Btw, I made my highest score today in Solitaire ... 11323 .. done in close to 60 secs ... :D ; Take tht monga .. beat tht and show me .. :)

Tommorrow, there's a CAT class again at 6.30 in the morning, ppl pls wake me up at 5.00 am ... whosoever reads this ... thnx in advance :) , and hope we win again in cricket tommorrow morning against UG1 ... Best of luck ppl ...

Exams suck ass !

Why do you need to keep exams ? ... Why cant every course be like Intro to Cognitive Science. It was an awesome course, no midsems, no endsems ... just a presentation , a term paper, and some assignments ... And added to that he grades well ... (got an A- in the course :D ).
A good week before exams, went for Rang De Basanti on Saturday evening (finally). And then home on Sunday Morning, coz of the new car - Maruti Baleno. It was nice driving it... compared to Zen. Fkin Zen was 1000 cc and this was 1600 cc. This baleno was jumping even with a small acceleration, and brakes were too powerful ... Took a little time to adjust, but after that it was a nice ride to the college ... Will drive it more in the coming weeks.. :) .

Coming back to exams .. I had 3 till now .. Globalisation and Social Development .. the course is good ... nice to listen and argue, but crappy to write [learnt tht in the exam :( ] .

Then, it was time for TOC and DC. Venkaiah rocks ! He makes such nice papers, that you would love to attempt at exams. Started DC portion at 6.00 on Monday evening, finished the portion by 10.00 in the night and had a tute till 12.00 covering all the portion, thanks to ntr ... Started the fked up TOC portion at 1.00 am on Tuesday Morning with the exam at 8.30 am. I finished the CFGs by 2.30 - 3.00 and then slept ... woke up in the morning at 6.00 am ... then started reading PDA ... the theorems suck !! I woke up Vishnu at 7.00 and had a small tute abt PDAs and CFL properties. By 8.00, I was ready for TOC ... then went to the exams

Result :
Globalisation was just alright, with lotsa crap which i felt made sense ...
Toc was pretty ok, expecting some where arnd 12 -15 out of 20. ( With tht kinda prep)
DC was ok, except tht i kinda screwed up 2nd bit of 2nd question.

And now, enjoyin' life again with games and a lil hope tht SE wont be screwed up as it was last time ...

Vishnu's Bday and bc ...


Yesterday night, Vishnu was kicked for the first time ... we had a nice time in OBH, where he finally cut his cake, a cake from Country Oven, Begumpet where I and Monga went at 10.00 in the night to get it ... It was nice one, worth the trouble.


Then, the group photo, each one posing in a random manner - and then he was kicked. Then tipo showed us how to dance, and iv showed how a robot would be like - a small video of this will available soon on one of the ftp servers ...

Then, some FRIENDS and sleep at arnd 2.30 ... got woken up by an alarm of the cellphone at arnd 4.30 ... FUCK !! Its time to get ready for the CAT Class at Ameerpet - Career Launcher. I went to CL and came back by 8.45, in time for TOC.


The best part was that the total travelling time was close to 35 mins, 15 while going and 20 while coming back - courtesy, Alankar's car while going, and my car while coming. The normal travelling time would be close to 45 mins while going only ...


Two classes followed - TOC and DC - where I slept for most of the time... After coming back, I and Aziz went and booked tickets for Rang De Basanti 6.00 p.m. show ... btw, planning a movie in March 1st week with a girl .. any recommendations pls ... recos for the movie :) ..

Will post some more pics of the bday soon ... btw, vasan .. i think i'm gonna start bloggin everyday, and Sudeep took today's class - Quant - TSD and Work :)

Making it a habit ...

Mehdipatnam on Fire ... says ntr, I dont fucking get it - why shud someone here put a bandh, strike or whatever, if some dumbfuck somewhere does something ... and that too after almost a week after the incident ? Serious dumbasses...

Anyway, yesterday was nice ... I went in the afternoon to Andhra Bank for the 25k they promised for Felicity '06 with the photos and a video which they had asked for initially , and they asked for a advanced receipt, the covering letter and also their banner ... I thought of going to Country Oven, when they called me up and asked me to come on Monday ... It was a f***ing useless trip. The way back was nice ... From Tolichowki to college, 80 kmph was the average ... empty road ... it rocked!!

Came back to lab in the afternoon, randomly browsed thru blogs, and finally made my Tagging ... blog It was time for football, ran back to the room, and finally played in a match that I would like to forget asap. Another pathetic match resulting in a DRAW ( 0 - 0 ) against PG.

Then came back to my room feeling a bit bored, dejected etc ... Started playing Solitaire ..
got fkin bored with that too after sometime, dinner followed ... I had gayam raja's bike (Pulsar) with me ... then decided for a nice drive outside ... Awesome feeling .. driving at 100 kmph on the road's adjacent to IIIT... the one to HCU and the other to ISB and etc ... It was an awesome ride, for abt 90 minutes , came back and watched some FRIENDS and then fell asleep ...

Today started with that SE class, where ppl frm Microsoft came.. and started some programming stuff. It was pretty good compared to the normal boring SE classes. Then, it was time to go to Andhra Bank for the 25k, when we realized that the banner of AB was missing. N
Nobody has got any clue abt this so far ... So, the fate of the 25k still stands unknown...

So, it was evening (after some FRIENDS and BC ... ) when I planned to go to library for some studying before mids, but football ... 2 hrs of football was nice ... screw library ... and now I'm here getting ready to kick some arse tonight (coz its vishnu's bday) ...

One last comment :

Hope that I will be able to go to the CAT Class tommorrow at CL ... without any hiccups, coz of tht Mehdipatnam shit happening there ...

The trip to Goa, welcoming 2006 ...

A nice trip at the end ...

The pic sums it all, No holds barred for 4 days ... I welcomed the twenties into my life, with all the booze etc... If I rmr correctly, I had Kingfisher beer, breezers and the local made 'Fenny' - about 36% alcohol... f*** !!! ... that threw the life out of me for one night, I slept like a log ...

It all started on December 9th, 2005. My friend and I were discussing about the earlier trips to Mumbai and Vizag ... They rocked!! A small joking proposal about a trip to Goa, and he said he was ready. I asked everyone, all were ready except 2 (of 8). So, I went and bought return tickets to Goa. At the end, everyone except 1 guy was ready. So, we were off to Goa on 28th evening. We reached there by 29th Morning 11.00 am. A fucked up bumpy shitty road from Londa to Panjim awaited us, and we suffered all along the way.

The pic on the right ... is a brief desc of the road ... for abt 20 kms...

When we went to Goa, we resided at the NIO quarters, coz my dad's brother works as a scientist in NIO, Dona Paula. This place was awesome ... 5 minutes from the beach... a lovely place.

Next day, we went for a tour of South Goa, enjoying at each and every place. Colva beach was nice... The water there never came above our knee ... All churches etc were covered.


The next part was the North Goa tour... on 31st ... This place had the best beaches in Goa covered. The Calangute beach was one of them, we spent the night at Calangute and the Baga Beaches. This beaches had some awesome parties on the New Year's Eve.

This pic shows the estimated ppl on the beach ... close to 2 lakhs !! .. We went for a boat ride into the sea ... and SHIT HAPPENED... The boat overturned, we were into the sea, about close to 3 kms from the beach. Luckily we were saved by the lifeguards, that was one heck of an experience. It was time for one of the most grooviest night parties. It rocked. WE loved each and every moment of it.

Then, it was time for those beers to flow... - the time for celebration of the New Year 2006. The fireworks display was exhilarating ... about 30 - 45 mins of fantastic rockets display...
















These two pics above just made me think that this celebration was worth the entire price I had put on my trip.

More details to be added later ....

Signing off,
With dreams from Goa,
Sid...
