Already its 23 days since I left Salem.. So far my innings in Chennai has never extended beyond 33 days.. With Q Quest, Vision and Assessments following , it seems I would be imprisoned in this dirty, polluted Chennai for another 3 weeks, and I have to survive on the appalams , milk and curd rice in C.E.G mess for that long time.. I cant avoid the self empathy building inside me, and my frustrations get increased on seeing Dale Steyns and Warne Parnells... It attains its peak during the so called soft skills lab, and C.arch and communication.. Giving an asymptotic run to this RH curve of frustration is the german classes in evenings.. The results of the first assessment make me feel lost... The District collector inside me is already in coma stage with no proper food for thought...

Another villian for me is in the form of the newspaper agent.. Without proper notice , he has stopped supplying newspapers to my room, and since sixth standard,I have never lived without Hindu.. I have stopped offering prayers , and it adds to the sins I am committing daily.. Even small things like searching for a misplaced room key irritates me..

I am not living my life... Even hosanna can't bring me back to my equilibrium state... I am experiencing the so called theory of "Engineering Islands".. That too with this huge land, and wi-fi connection inside room, C.E.G is one such island...

Ironically, NSS , which was a huge burden to me during first year and the boring and tiring work for club keeps me going..

Something good must happen.. I badly need a free weekend to go home...

He is back

Ajith is back with his neat performance at asal.. The film does not have a great plot and all. It is very much an ordinary story.. The film spans only for 130 minutes.. Ordinary songs.. Poor dance.. The efforts of sameera in "kudhiraiku theriyum" song goes in vain, as ajith spoils the song... Also, "totatoing" will please only the die-hard thala fans.. For others,it will be irritating.. Only the intro song is watchable...The ajith hailing dialogues irritates at times.. Ajith smiles only once in the movie...

Still , his style and neat show makes the movie watchable...
Ajith really has some originality in him, unlike the thalapathies...

Love to read

The last 20 days had it all. I have started thinking of me much.. My IAS aspirations,my future, my dream car,placements,my school life,my evenings at home watching WWE,my first day in hostel, the most inspiring people in my life, the days when i sat infront of tv, hearing Harsha bhogle , Gavaskar , Geoffrey Boycott and Ravi Shastri.... What am I going to do for my country? What am I going to do for my society? Why should I waste my engineering degree? Why cant I be polite to all? Why people like me? Why people dont like me? What people expect from me? How my life would be when I have a sibling? How many people really care for me? For how many people I care honestly? How many lies speak in a day?

This is mind blowing..

I really have nothing to worry for.. The almighty is so kind to me in blessing me with good parents,a beautiful country and its loving people.. So many friends I have.. From my parents and grandparents to naveen(t) to gowtham to sabari to gnyanandha reddy(where are you?) to ramamurthy to deepak to ramakrishnan to prashanth to the vigneshs to prasanna to vinoth to santhosh to karthik to barathwaj to vivek to krishna to anand to sp to manibarathi to naveen(v,e) to tamil to vivek to jayaram to gopi to manikandan to radhika to shivakumar to sathish to shalimar to all hostelmates,classmates and schoolmates....( I cant type all of you names! Bear with me)... The list goes on and on and on... These days in CEG hostels are turning out to be a heaven in disguise.. The unbelievable fun we are having here is never going to come back to anyone of us..

How beautiful human life is? How many people I have crossed in my life? How fortunate I am by my birth? WOW!!

Let me come out of all my so called silly problems, and wish you all a very happy valentine's day!!

Love you all!!!

Pic details: Prof. Bjarne Stroustrup , developer of c++ programming language..
Venue : CSE dept. seminar hall, CEG
Date:20/1/2010
Time: 1900 to 2025 [ This professor was too too punctual]

This pic answers everyone about what kurukshetra 10 is all about.. Pucca organisation...

It is not that easy to get UNESCO patronage , and we CEGians take pride in doing justice to each and every word in the main poster of K'10..

The day 0 of the event is better,bigger and more promising than that of previous year.. Till yesterday night, I was arguing that this edition will not be a big success.. Now , I happily reverse my very own words.. The schedule card is more exciting than that of the previous year... Events like "snap" and "treasure hunt" are new introductions and promises to be very innovative... Lectures and workshops will definitely be better than previous edition, and already the "robocrab" workshop today is said to have pulled around 225 participants...

Through K, the student community of CEG sends a strong signal to everyone...
"TEAM WORK WORKS"..

Only the hostelers in chennai-25 will realise the significance of the last sentence....

History Unheralded

India is also affected by second world war!!

This statement would look absurd and most of you would not believe even after finish reading this post.. Ask someone who lived from 1942 to 1945.. They will know the impact of the war.. I am writing this post based on the experiences of my grandparents during their schooling days and this is not fictitious...

The famous 3 siren alarming system was hugely in practice in the major cities of British India.. 3 sirens will be sounded everyday , as a part of creating awareness among the general public, and it was as a part of the wartime training.. During the first siren , all the people walking on the road are supposed to find out the pits.. Such man-hole like pits were dug all along the main roads,as a measure to protect the citizens from Japanese aircrafts.. On hearing the second siren, everyone should hide themselves in the pit and on the third siren , all can come out of the pit, and can proceed with their routines..

The nazi swasthika symbols were supposed to be painted atop the high buildings and towers , to deceive the aircrafts that the place was captured by germans.. The famous Srivalliputhur temple gopuram is said to be painted with a swasthika at its top, which was visible from the planes...

These were the measures taken by the British Government on the wake of minor shelling at vishakapatnam and madras....

I am searching for books which has recorded India during the war time.. If anyone comes across sucha book accidentally , please inform me!!!

Time to look back

It is time for reviews of the year in blogs and media all over the world , and it won't be fair on my part not to look back at the year , which is declared as the most peaceful year in the history of jammu and kashmir since independence.. The year 2009 will be remembered for many reasons , but there are some things which we cannot forget very easily..

Barack Hussain Obama rewrote history in his own style.. Michael Jackson's mysterious death and A.R.Rahman's "jai ho" took the music world by storm.. Liberated Tigers of Tamil Ealam and Velupillai Prabhakaran were in news for half of the year.. Election comission of India successfully conducted world's largest elections ever, and Dr.Manmohan singh became only the second Indian Prime Minister to retain his chair at 7 RCR after a full term.. Rahul gandhi shocked Indian politics with his U.P. heroics..

Tamil nadu got its first deputy chief minister , and power cuts were at its peak.. Muthukumaran literally forced the state government to shut down all the colleges for a week.. Andhra lost YSR.. Telengana issue is still a burning issue there.. Maharashtra , Andhra pradesh , Jharkand were among the states which went to assembly elections..

Indian cricket had a very ordinary year with losses in Champion's trophy , World T20 and the home series against Australia... The only good news was receiving the ICC test championship mace..

Tamil cinema lost Nagesh.. No thalaivar movies and no maniratnam movies this year and for the year which started with "villu" and ended with "vetaikaran" , the likes of "nadodigal" and "pasanga" came as a relief..

Overall, 2009 was more eventful and , for India it was more peaceful than 2008..
