A Rosy Week

Hiee... and I greet u with a very warm Hiiiiii.... haha... welcome to my second post :) In case you've read my earlier post, then I'm frankly surprised that you've returned... haha.. As I knew I would, I'm back to my usual self.. thanks guys for ur concern. Days are flying by here in kgp, temperatures rapidly raising to arnd 40 deg... god its HOT.. very HOT here. So hot that I'm even skipping lunches just to avoid the 2 min cycle ride to Veggies to have my lunch (mess ko bhool jaao yaar .. it is its usual self... n come on final sem mein hoon.. so i force myself into the mess just a couple of times in a week).
And thanks to the courses I've taken ( 3 - of them completely stopped going to 1 ...actually haven't been to more than 4 classes to the DBMS course this sem), my week ends on the evening of thursday... hahaha :P .. And let me recall my week now... it has been WONDERFUL, LOVELY n the whole world started to look rosy again :)
(N now had to hold this writing for now... some mugging due :( ... )
(Resuming - 3rd arpil - tuesday... back frm my class where as usual slept while sitting in the first row.. :( lemme continue frm where i've left )
As i said, the week had been quite exciting... got in touch with school frens who r currently in the US. And also decided to wake up frm this slumber(had been sleeping for 15 hrs a day during these 10 days) n then get back on track... realised that the deadline for my paper submission is closer than it seemed... so had finished it up... BLISS!!! finally felt that I've done something in KGP :) and then tuesday brought me back to ground... dad called me up in the afty and told me that they've received a letter frm UIUC.. n then instantly felt the final nail in the coffin... felt bad for dad when he read it out... though expected, it was painful as dad n mom had to know abt it so early. But then things are things :). Posted my tax return forms and so waiting for my bank account to refill :D.
Had been leaving meebo ON through out the nite and frens started complaining if I ever sleep.. :) .. Wednesday had been memorable... won the baski semis against the 1st yrs.. was a tight game.. but then my team is quite patriotic.. follows the indian team for making things interesting :D .. thru to the finals!!! as far stats r available.. we haven't been to the finals at least after '97.
My sleeping hrs or rather timings have seen a huge change n i'm glad they r continuing into their 2nd week... "Sleep early.. Wake up early"... for those who r laughing at "early"... 5 am :P ... reasons arcanum for the moment :P ...
Thursday had been quite hectic... stuck to my desk.. trying to find manuals on "How to" to get the final stats for my paper.... uff!!! n so don't want to write anything that wud bore some of u or call me a geek...i wudn't want it..(but lemme throw some hints.. to get the % processor time used by my Process n get the Run time... u know wht to call me :D )
And coming to friday, we lost the finals in the last 4 mins :( but fought like the Spartans all the way :)


My Team -
(Standing) Sunny,me,goutham,pratyush,mangal,yuvi,makdi,KC,bandela
(Sitting - vijay, harsha, iota, tejaswi,ratan,satyam,tejas)

Saturday was completely dedicated to mugging... got a test on monday... sometimes I wonder if all these things still matter to me.. but then had to read :) Cursed the univs for remaining open on saturdays as well :(

And Shils, is pretty excited these days, she was finally able to leave her boredom n join a call center for these 3 months... so had been describing her induction into the company, all the jokes in the class, the funny things they were made to do to get know other members of the batch... and I had been teasing her since then, calling hers a Nursery ..hehehe. ( to describe Shils.. hmm.. my schoolmate... n .. n.. not now coz I would like to dedicate an entire post to her n i'm sure it wud still be the tip of the ice berg :) ).. and she promised to keep track of the good looking girls in her company.. frens do hep ..hehehe :D :D

Dedicated to my books the whole of sunday, haven't heard frm ppl much.Hurt my mom the most I've ever when I had to answer her regarding the apps and then abt my future plans. What a fool i'm !!!!!!! :(((( Could have lied.. but then cudn't :(. Dad called me up in the nite asking me what I've told Mom to have made her so worried. I told him to take care of her till I come and lied to him that I'm happy and everything would go well....
And then Shilpa who was supposed to have a day off at bhimili, called me up late in the nite n told me in the most dispirited tone that she had a ligament tear in the morning and had been in the hospital till then.. I was dumbstruck and could barely speak... gathered myself n asked her how it happened and then she cried "April Fool :P".. I couldn't believe myself !!! how easily i had been tricked n more than that was happy that she is alright. and then she continued saying .."stuppid!! this is my revenge for ur sms(happy ur day :P) in the afty"..hehehehe

And hey almost slipped out of my mind...
took our wing snaps in the afty.. hehe..
Had good time clicking at all the funny drawing on our walls :D And congrats Mohan for TAMU!!! :) Makes you feel how dear things are when u don't have them....

And haan, things are looking much clearer now. Thinking of quitting Oracle n joining a start up instantly .. or work for a year n then shift to google/ MSR bangy... dekhte hain :) ...


(Mohan - tamu,transwitch.. Rohit - Inductis... Neeraj - market RX... himanshu.. kheti da - deloitte, Adi - transwitch.. chinka n CK singh - realiance) ( Me - oracle..Loadu... Maiti - Magma, Wisconsin just for the moment.... Arka (drums rolling) - Cisco, stan, berkley,purdue,USC :D )

I hope I haven't bored u much with my never ending blog... n come back again next week for, a lot of things happening at the moment... grand vivas, term papers, meebos n more importantly ********* (shall decipher it next week if i get thru it :) )

And before I sign off, lemme leave u with one of my writings ( don't rate me by it in any means...), something for the cherubic girl I would meet ( now don't come to ny conclusions... don't have nyone in my mind for now.... but then thrs always meebo and if not shils' promise will take care of it :) )

"come away with me.... along the dewy paseos of green

walk away with me..... beside the sandy beaches of coral

sail away with me.....over the dreamy waves of blue

fly away with me.....across the mily clouds of white"

so bbye for now!! have a gr8 week... shall catch up with some more happenings :)

As I once told you, you should have applied to PhD in poetry at Cambridge
They would have been impressed by your poetry skills :)

blogging is more interesting when it comes to feelings and emotions..
