AIM - PowerPC
Recently, i was reading a note on powerpc, yeah right we have it in computer system architecture. I'm really surprised with Apple IBM and Motorola RISC development by this alliance. In 1990s Motorola came up with its first RISC processor, it was doing poor in market. Soon they got combined with IBM and Apple. These vendors came up with PowerPC like G3, G4 and in 2003 IBM came up most powerful G5-64 bit powerPC. Motorola exited with chip market in 2004 by giving birth to FreeScale semiconductor, soon IBM announced to hand over its computer market to a chinese company Lenovo to get back on PowerPC development for Sony Playstation 3 (Cell processor), Nintendo and Xbox 360. In 2005 Apple announced they'd no longer use PowerPC in Macintosh. Apple collebrated with Intel for its computer production. Thats how a era of onr of the great computer architecture turns to game consoles.

Programing with AJAX
Now a days web programing is getting more and more intractive Beside Macromedia developers are using something which dont require 3rd party s/w and if you're a web programmer you always keen to learn about these technology. Recently i was trying to understand Gmail, I was wondering how a new page is coming with actually refreshing the page, at the very next moment i thought its Google they might have written new webserver or something. But today when i saved that page using IE/FireFox i couldnt because i didnt really imagine these things. When i didnt understand what is happening, i start exploring Paul's Blog. He is gmail first official engineer, I was trying to understand the technical words. Suddenly i focused on AJAX (Asynchronous JavaScript and XML) and when i explore this work at wiki, i thought thats it!! Google is using AJAX for its variouos applications like Gmail, orkut, Google Map ..etc! I played with it for few hours and i found it auit useful!
What is Ajax?
Ajax applications look almost as if they reside on the user's machine, rather than across the Internet on a server. The reason: pages get updated, not entirely refreshed.
“Every user action that normally would generate an HTTP request takes the form of a JavaScript call to the Ajax engine instead”, wrote Jesse James Garrett, in the essay that first defined the term. “Any response to a user action that doesn’t require a trip back to the server — such as simple data validation, editing data in memory, and even some navigation — the engine handles on its own. If the engine needs something from the server in order to respond — if it’s submitting data for processing, loading additional interface code, or retrieving new data — the engine makes those requests asynchronously, usually using XML, without stalling a user’s interaction with the application.”
Traditional web applications essentially submit forms, completed by a user, to a web server. The web server responds back by sending a new web page. Because the server must submit a new page each time, applications run more slowly and awkwardly than their native counterparts.
Ajax applications, on the other hand, can send requests to the web server to retrieve only the data that is needed, usually using SOAP or some other XML-based web services dialect. On the client, JavaScript processes the web server response. The result is a more responsive interface, since the amount of data interchanged between the web browser and web server is vastly reduced. Web server processing time is also saved, since much of it is done on the client.

Inside you
Stars shining near me,
wind blowing around me.
still missing something without you,
My world is empty without "Loving you"
Trees telling me beautiful stroy,
Peaks telling me tales of glory.
River is making its own way,
My world is looking far away.
Wow! these beautiful landscapes,
no one would like to escape.
Oh! my pictures are without you,
My world is inside you.
wind blowing around me.

Four hikes above numinous Lahaul Valley

Prologue
I am always fascinate toward mountains, since Aditya told me about Lahaul and Spiti valley; i was kinda crazy about it. I was making some plan with my peer Shaurya to travel Lahaul and Spiti Valley but unfortunately again we got some hitches, being an engineer student in India, you don't have time to travel. One day my junior Vibhu wrote me an email showing his interest in travel, we started to work on it but no one agreed on Lahaul and Spiti. After my brief presentation and emails everyone finally agreed to travel to there. True fully, i didnt know that everyone is damm serious about it. I thought its paper plan. On 26th Sept 2005 finally we bought tickets of HRTC Volvo bus to Manali which cost us 810 INR. On the very next day we shoppe some medical stuff from CP, New Delhi for this laborious journey. Shuarya was still in dreams, while others Vinay, Vibhu and me thought its almost done.
Peoples: Me, Vinay, Vibhu, Shaurya Places: Delhi-->Manali-->Rohtang-->Kyelang-->Jispa-->Darcha (Lahaul and Spiti valley) Budget: 3000 INR (include travel expenses) Travel Expenses: 1610 (Delhi-->Manali-->Delhi: Volvo HRTC Bus) + 174 (Manali-->Kyelang-->Manali HRTC Bus) + 80 (Kyelang-->Jispa-->Darcha--> Kyelang HRTC Bus): Total = 1864 INR Machines: HRTC Buses, TATA Truck 501, Army Ashok Leyland, Volvo Buses.
The Travel Night
I was waiting for Shaurya at Metro station, i had imagined him with his bag only, and I didnt know that my imagination is too fallacious. He came with his family in a dashing car. I thought we're going to airport or something and then to Switzerland. Soon i realized its natural. Vibhu the most punctual guy in our group was also late to this tryst. Soon we left to ISBT and fortunately we were there on time. We're trying to find dashing VOLVO bus at creepy ISBT and we found them, they were quite different. I was expecting some young girls near me but unfortunately i was stuck in honeymoon couples.
The Travel Day: Day 1
We were in Manali after a comfortable journey in Volvo, tasty dinner at Haveli and rubbish movies shows. We poked around Manali Bus Terminal, it was same as ISBT but quit small. At 1330 Hrs we had a bus to Kyelang so everyone rushed to a paid locoweed put our stuff in a mini bus named "Hibachi Roadways Transport Corp. Keylong". I was seated with a young man from Kyelang, i start talking about that place. He told me about life and lifelines, BSNL Cellone service and winter stories. As soon as bus started Vibhu shout on me "We dont have water for this 6 hrs journey". 115 kms in 6 hrs it was beyond my imagination. I took myself over the bulky bags, accidental i crushed one eye of a banal old man, it wasnt too hard but i was sorry for it. I bought 3L "Neer" mineral water. Our bus had started and i was surprising, "is this is a Manali-Leh Highway? My town streets are wider than them". I should call that driver a highly trained driver, who roamed us over narrow roads. Within 2 hrs of our journey to Kyelang our bus had stopped for a Tea and Lunch at Marhi, it was very beautiful and quite town. Shaurya was hungry; he bought some cigarettes from Manali and was burning them in that innocent bus. We bought 2 roasted corns which cost us 10 INR, i couldnt eat them because of false teeth, but i guess others had enjoyed a lot. We were again in the bus and passing 13500 Feets Rohatang Pass, i just said "WOW!" i dont know how it came, but it was from inside. It was chilling; wind was string icy rocks and passing our bus. Suddenly i realized that Id die in this single T-shirt. Vibhu was quite bliss with Rohatang Pass and started to take pictures from running bus. "So, we are here" said Kyeland man who was seated with me. It was very dark and only few huts over there, it was Kyelang. Vibhu and I got a warm welcome in that cold night while Shaurya and Vinay jumped over that burning dump. I was scanning the village into my mind and trying to find some resources. We tried cheapest feasible room for a night. That room was quit decent but it was small, its designed for visitors from outside and loaded with all modern facilities like HOT WATER. Soon we took our Dinner from owner which was "Chicken and Veg Chowmin", Shaurya was pretty delightful and waiting for his dinner. As its served by a pink cheek boy his stomach was unplaced with acidity. He took pepfiz(antacid) and slept on a 2-bed set couch with us.
Searching for Adventure: Day-2
We all were fed up of traveling so long in distant places, according to our plan we should visited to Kyelang and nearby places but we headed to Jispa. We took an early brunch which was served by pink cheeks boy. Vibhu was paying the bill and i was asking some man about Jispa. He wears Army clothes and he was drunk. I just show my interest in traveling with him, he agreed to take us to Jispa. Vinay and I were with a new man, he was a nice man and knew many things about this valley. He suggested us to drop Spiti plan as it highly risky. This BRO truck driver knew many things about Leh too. We had a great time with me. While we were enjoying, Shaurya and Vibhu had worst time of there life. We reached to Jispa earlier than them, it was quite strange because we waited for someone about 30 mins during our journey. Jispa was simple and surrounded by big mountains. Bhaga River was passing though its heart. This village was very small and quite. I saw a truck coming toward us and then i saw Vibhu and Shaurya getting off from it. "Thats retarded man" Shaurya shouted, "He was drinking alcohol and driving" Vibhu added. Its quite hilarious for me to imagine that condition. Both vibhu and Shaurya took a deep breath and thanking god that they were safe. We hiked to Advance mountaineering and trekking institution in Jispa, its quite small and limited. As soon as we were into out room, Vibhu started to explore Jispa; he found beautiful river and small sandy beach. Everyone eked creativity and start exploring that beautiful town. We were at river bank after some awesome pictures Vibhu got an idea to cross the speedy river but Shuarya wasnt interested in it. Vibhu and Vinay crossed that river, somehow i convinced Shaurya its quite easy. As i stepped into the water; i realized how wrong I was, it wasnt easy to cross it with shaky Shaurya. I slipped 4-5 times into icy water. Hot stones were something best for our feets, Vibhu was kind of crazy about river i guess he crossed it 6 times while i was happy with twice. We played some other games too, junior was impressive in all adventurous games. We came back and were really hungry, we called home and shopkeeper was Delhi Return and pretty good in English. He told us to head toward Darcha, there were many small Dhabas. Darcha is 6 kms from Jispa, its hardly took 15 mins for us by HRTC bus. We were in Darcha, natural beauty is directly proportional to the distance covered on Manali Leh Highway; so you can imagine how beautiful place was it. We headed to very local food centre, an old man offered us "Thupa, Momos and Maggie" i was thanking god, i had something vegetarian to eat. We ordered 2 Thupa and 16 momos with a veggie maggi. I was happy with Maggie but others were not happy with their non-veg dishes. After very light lunch we made plan to trek 6 kms to Jispa; but Vibhu he wanted to explore it further. It was evening, we were into our room and deciding the Spiti valley. Everyone was garrulous about Spiti valley; Vinay and Shaurya had some problems with funds and Spiti was quite expensive. We played a game. There was only one bus from Rohatang Pass to Spiti and it reached there at 1100 Hrs. It was almost impossible but we were going to try it hard. Soon we took our delicious dinner and went to sleep.
Catching the time: Day-3
We wake up very early this morning, there was a bus at 0645 Hrs from Jispa to Rohatang. Bus stopped in front of us, it was full of local peoples, and we hardly fitted our self inside this small bus. Bus stopped at Kyelang, we couldnt travel anyone in that airtight bus, and so we decided to travel in next bus from Kyelang but it wasnt too easy. We waited for a bus and it was 1030 Hrs in my clock, we almost skipped Spiti exploration. I wasnt sure how'd we travel, but i realized everyone has reservation so i went to bus station and talking to officer. "These fucking bus and people pissed off me" i heard a mid-age lady shouting behind me. She came upright to me and starts shouting further. Few peoples understand English over there but she was angry. I tried to take her in stable state by talking. She was waiting for a bus with her husband since early morning but she didnt know how to catch these airtight buses. I explained the procedure, which i understood few mins ago to her. She was sorry for her cacophonous words. I reached to Rohtang after a comfortable and sleepy journey at 1530 Hrs, it was cold and windy. It simply implied we were late for a trek, therefore we made plan to stay at Marhi. We trekked almost 16 Kms downhill and reached to Marhi at 1745 Hrs. It was chilling, we ate Paranthas at Chamba Dhaba and planned to stay at guesthouse over there. "Hey, we have a wine shop" Shaurya said; "Yes, we should drink Vodka" Vinay and Vibhu added. I was quite shocked because i am an alcohol hatter person, but we were chilling. Shaurya and I bought 250ml Vodka and we had started it as soon as Shaurya put his creepy cigarettes down. Vinay and Shaurya had lost their control after 2 glass or pack whatever. Vibhu was thinking "why the hell we wasted our 200 bucks for this creepy spirit like chemical" and he was right. I was enjoying the show, someone should be in control; so i was the rescue man. It was quite funny to see laughing Shaurya and crazy Vinay in drunken roles while Vibhu was in full control after a small amount. Shuarya puked once into the bathroom and then we slept after a funny evening.
Most Adventurous Day of my life: Day-4
Shaurya and Vibhu planned to trek back to Rohatang uphill. I knew it wasnt easy at 13000 Feets so i was searching for an alternative. An Army trial vehicle was standing in front to our Dhaba; i found some army person eating some food and talked with them. They were from FireBrooke-3 posted at Leh. After 15 mins of open talk they agreed to take us to Rohatang pass in their trial vehicle. It was running slow but it was quite decent. Were at Rohtang in 70 mins. We thought that we were late but again i was wrong. Vinay and I waited for others for 60 mins, so we were early. Shaurya was breathing promptly but very bulky. He decided to cancel the trek. But Vibhu wasnt, we stared our 5 Kms trek on straight mountain, its called "the point". Its at 15000 feets and i didnt know that it'd be too painy for me because breathing was barely possible. I decided to stop before 100 feets to "the top" it was 1000 feets above "the point". But Vibhu and Vinay were still breathing high, they reached to the top, believe me it was very dangerous. My head was paining hard, i read in some book about high altitude diseases; so i started to walk downward. Trekking downward is most difficult thing on the straight hills. I slipped over ice, wacky stones and small plants. But in the end we all were safe to the base. Suddenly weather became worse and cold, wind was too strong and virtually we were into clouds. We took a bus very fast and returned to Marhi. Everyone was bypassing the loo one by one. It was vinays turn, after thirty mins in loo he came out with a big relief. Shaurya and me needed something hot but Vibhu was wrecked he needed some sleep. We came out and ordered black tea and coffee. Vinay came out and said "did you see my money bag" we said no. Soon the story cleared into our mind. Vinay had left his money bag in the loo. "How he can be so stupid, how anyone can be so stupid" i thought in my mind. We tried to find it but we couldnt found it. He had lost his 1700 bucks and driving license. He was feeling sad, we tried to cheer him by a delicious food and somehow it helped him. I made calls to my home and friends as we decided to go home tomorrow.
Returning to Hell: Day-5
We caught the first bus to Manali and we were back to Manali at 1200 Hrs with some hitches due to landslide. We reserved our tickets and went to eat something. Shaurya is a Chinese lover so he took us to a Chinese restaurant. It was quite and best place to tease some girls. We ordered "Tuna Sushi, some chicken, Vanilla Milk-shake, Pancakes and Noodles" Food wasnt very nice for me. Again i took small portion of it and surrendered. Then we went to the ice-cream parlor and enjoyed a big ice-cone. We still had 2 hrs, so we visited to Nature Park in Manali. After nature refreshment, its time for the books. Shuarya found that shop interesting and its was somewhat quiet different. It again shopped necessary stuff for our travel and departs to Manali. We were seated back this time. Two young girls from Sweden and United states came inside in the running bus, they were near us and waving here and there. I helped them with their big bags. Shaurya was quite attracted toward the States girl and he put some cigarettes and acted like a Hollywood hero but he was acting very stupid. Night was quite impossible for me and in the morning we were back to New Delhi. We stated thinking about School and study. It was like we were back to hell.

Leaving to wonder
In four hours, i am leaving to Lahaul and Spiti valley. Its one of the nature nourish valley in India. We'll begain our journey from New Delhi (ISBT) at 8:26 PM IST. Our first stop will be Manali (570 Kms from New Delhi), hopefully we'll be there in 10-12 Hrs. Manali is a famous hill station in India, we dont have any plan to stay overthere. With in 2 hrs we'll depart for Rohatang pass and then Kyelang followed by Gondla. Its the famous check point for a journey to Leh, so we'll get all facilites there. On the very day, we'll leave to Jispa and Suraj Taal. Our next step would be Spiti valley, if everything run smooth, no hectics no landslides no illness then we'd be in Spiti valley. We'll end our journey to Kaza.

The Billboard
So perhaps it's no great surprise that Google utilizes unusually mathematically oriented recruitment techniques. In fact, these practices have received widespread coverage in the last few weeks and months following the erection of a mathematical billboard in Silicon Valley on southbound Highway 101 near Ralston, California in July 2004. The billboard poses the question of finding the first 10-digit prime number occurring in consecutive digits (i.e., the decimal expansion) of the mathematical constant known as e, which is a transcendental number whose first few digits are 2.7182818284.... The unusal nature of the billboard prompted coverage through numerous mainstream media outlets such as National Public Radio, The Boston Globe, and the Oakland Tribune, as well as (of course) on the internet.

Ed mentioned the puzzle on his MathPuzzle website on July 13, 2004. Minutes after its posting, Wolfram Research CEO and A New Kind of Science author Stephen Wolfram sent the solution as a single line of Mathematica code:
Select[FromDigits/@Partition[First[RealDigits[E,10,1000]],10,1],PrimeQ,1]
{7427466391}
The Billboard, Level 2
Upon determining this value and typing the corresponding URL http://7427466391.com into a web browser, a potential Google employee (or curious MathWorld news story reader) is taken to a web page congratulating him (or her) and providing instructions for the second level of the puzzle, which involves finding the next term of the following sequence:
f(1)= 7182818284
f(2)= 8182845904
f(3)= 8747135266
f(4)= 7427466391
f(5)= __________
If the first two terms look familiar, that's because they are 10-digit portions of the decimal expansion of e given above. In fact, a little extra analysis shows that they are precisely those 10-digit portions summing to 49. After having determined that, it is easy to find the next number, again using Mathematica:
FromDigits/@Select[Partition[First[RealDigits[E,10,1000]],10,1],Total[#]==49&,5]
{7182818284,8182845904,8747135266,7427466391,5966290435}
This is sequence A095926 in Neil Sloane's On-Line Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences.
While we could likely continue this discussion at least a little further, we prefer at this juncture to leave additional levels of the billboard puzzle to the enterprising reader.
Son of Billboard: The Google Labs Aptitude Test
On September 30, Google concocted an even more challenging recruitment device: the Google Labs Aptitude Test. Hardcopies of this test were also distributed to University of Illinois students in the October 12 edition of The Daily Illini. While some of the questions on the test relate more to computer knowledge and general creativity, many of them are highly mathematical. And for the these problems, Mathematica clearly shows its extremely high mathematical aptitude by solving them easily, especially when guided by a little research on MathWorld and other online resources such as the On-Line Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences.

While some of the questions on the test relate more to computer knowledge and general creativity, many of them are highly mathematical. And for the these problems, Mathematica clearly shows its extremely high mathematical aptitude by solving them easily, especially when guided by a little research on MathWorld and other online resources such as the On-Line Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences.

Sangeeta's birthday - II
That was the turning point of the day and i wanted to eat some more stuff, but i really didnt want sangeeta to spend her parent's hardearned money. "We should leave now" i said .."Yes sure" she replied in dumpy vocals .. "so, what to do now?" i asked her, as i imagied that she'd like to attend some more seminars .."we should leave" she replied very softly. Soon we headed to the main road of IITD campus and preparning to exit from there. "Wait Deepak!" sangeeta said ..some girls were coming from upright. i guessed that they were her friends and it was well guessed.
No introduction with the girls .. it was pretty obscure for me, i mean it was a manifest! Girls were saunter .. i mean walking in a lazy manner .. and i common thing bt sangeet and me was that we both walk quite fast. We came out from the back exit. 3 girls left us, one joined us .. she was Soumya, I talked with her and i found that she is quite intelligent and serious girl .. really nice.
We came back to ISBT, sangeeta offered me to eat the leftover, its like i was helping her to finish the delicious cake. But her intentions wasnt wrong. I was near to main hall of IGIT. "Deepak, wait here, i'll be right back" she said ... "sure, come back soon" i replied ..you know waiting outside a girls hostel is quite dangerous thing to do atleast for me. Few girls crossed me and saw me very strangly .. i wanted to describe, why the hell i was there .. but i couldnt. Again running Sangeeta came with a big box in her hand, she opened the box and it was a chocolate cake .. girls fav. "Please deepak have it" she said .. i took small piece .. and she wondered that a leap boy just taking the small piece. she joined me .. it was a tasty cake!
"where is my party?" i said after the cake .. "okay you want party, Mc'D?" she asked miserably .."Yes whynt" i replied promtly ..Again i waited for her ... and she came quit fast this time. We enterned in the Mc'D and talked, watched the photos of her childhood... didnt odered anything ..and leaft the Mc'D .. "why you didnt order anything" she asked me ... "surely i'll.. but later its late" i replied .. she thanked me(i saw the emotions on her face) for spending my half of the day with her ..and i guess .. it was the best preasent for a sad friend.

Sangeeta's birthday - I
My friends knows that i am a party lover guy ... i mean the one who likes the food and fun in free. It was sangeeta's birthday, i've already wished her .. and i wasnt expecting any party .. hehe you can ask this question to sangeeta! It was holiday and i was working on my computer, my phone rang ... i surprised to see "Sangeeta" flashing on my creepy mobile phone. I picked it up and said "Ohu Hi, how are you" .. she replied in typical girl voice "Hey i am fine thanks and you ..." and then suddenly something happened to her .. and she started speaking continously .. i dont remember what she said .. at last i listened "acha .. there is a workshop in IIT of computer graphics .. we are going, you want to come?" .. I tried to say no but couldnt .. may be its her birthday thats why! "Okay, i'll come and please carry your peers too" .. i mentioned Diksha and Malvika's name .. you know why .. so that it shouldnt seems to be a date ..lol!
I reached to Metro Station on time .. that was my mistake .. it wasnt first time .. but still i did the mistake! I waited her for 30 mins .. and suddenly a P.T Usha kinda girl .. running towards me .. i didnt recognized her .. but it was Sangeeta with a big sigh and red hairs .. you know ..she was looking like a girl who just came from a beauty parlour..lol I gently asked her "So, i am on holidays? where wer you?" she replied with sigh "uff, sorry! i was preparing and washing clothes." .. then i asked her "Where is Diksha and Malvika" .."Diksha is now in IIT as she have MBA classes so she have to leave early and Malavika declines this idea" .. she said.
We sit in the bus and headed to IITD, in 40 mins we were in IITD and I met some friends of her ... i dont know what a girls thought, if she see a boy with her friend. I told sangeeta .."Hey tell them, we arnt on date " .. she laughed on me .. but it wasnt a date. Soon we are into the audi, and we sit togather ..without holding our hands...lol! she was quite interested in stuff, which was going on .. but i was enjoying .. the cartoon and animated movies. We came out of it .. and she had shown her interest in viting Graphics and simulation lab, but i was interested in b'day party. "hey i know the CS dept" she didnt believe on me .. and went to voulenteer near desk .. she might tought "isko kya pata iit key barey mein, yeh yahan padta thoda na hai".. i.e i dont know about iit.
Soon we moved to CS dept .. there we met Mr. Parag ..he was very nice us .. and he already knew her. Beside Parag, we saw very innovative projects and that was the turning point, we came our of the lab .. and sangeeta was so excited ..thats the problem with girls .. excites quite early, especially with boys. "Deepak, i always wants to work in this arena" ..she said .. I wont lie peer ..i thought she was joking, but soon i got to know she was serious. Suddenly some peoples came to us, and again i wondered ..Sangeeta knows them too, they were from DCE IEEE ..and the boy out there asked me "you know room number 328 in CS Dept" he probably thought that i study in IITD .. i was pretending like a IITD guy and said "Ya, go straight away and there is a room number 328"! soon they left us .. so i asked sangeeta about food .. and a party things.
On the way to holistic, i had spoken too much about ..what i gonna eat .. and i think Sangeeta was calcualting the bill into her mind. We reached there .. and asked her .. "what you'd like to eat" .. she poked around the canteen .. i guess she was seaching for raj kachori .. but she couldnt find it and then she asked me "Deepak, what you'll have" .."Orange Juice and you?" i replied promptly, "Mango Shake" ..it wanst a good choice for me ..because i hate it... and the worst thing about it that i paid its bill .. which was 20 bucks! pretty economical .. we sit on a classy chairs .. and we talked about future plans .. but She stucked with "Animation" .. After few mins ..i asked "You want something more ..? Dosa Utpam ..blah blah" she said no ..i didnt wonder about it ..she is quite slim .. so i concluded to a wrong conclusion. After few mins .. we walked to NESCAFE and I odered Cold Coffee ..and she odered the Hot Chocolate .. i knew it isnt a good choice, because no one like IITD hot chocolate .. but i didnt tell her about it. Bu the good thing was she paid the bill this time.

A girl with a smile
A girl with a smile
-------------------------
I was feeling sad,
someone smiled with me.
It was beautiful,
too beautiful.
It was a girl with eternal smile.
I was sitting alone,
Someone walked to me.
It was close,
too close.
It was a girl with eternal shine.
Sometimes,I lost hopes,
Somone came to my eyes.
It was lovely,
too lovely.
It was a girl with eternal bliss.
I tried to recognize, the girl
I tried to look behind the curl
It was you,
always you.
A girl, who always loves me.

After the Pianist!
Watching a good movie, is the best thing that can happen with me. I still remember that friday, when i was watching The Pianist and Shaurya was disturbing me by making test call from his Skype phone, I was wishing "Oh jeez, break up the net connection". Soon i disconnected and went to watch movie, i was watching it for the first time, some friends told me that its nice movie but my damm bad luck .. always hangs around me, i couldnt watch the first half.
The second half was very impressive, infact i didnt know all these stuff and Nazis were soooo cruel!! I got the sympathic feelings for Polish peoples. After the Pianist, I turn my net on and searching about movie, i got remember "i have someone in Poland". Its my uncle .. he has given me some IDs of his friends, but i searched and the first ID that i got was of a girl whom i call Flower during this post!
"Hello" i said ..after 5 mins she replied "Hallo" .. then i said "How are you?" ... she replied "No english :(" ..it was a little unfortunate .. but i found a Polish-English dictionary .. and tried to communicate ..truefully ..it wasnt my Polish that helped me to talk with her, it was her English that helped me to talk with her. Soon we become very good friend .. i really start admiring Polish peoples .. soon i made some more friends .. they holds my expectations true! .. Alicja, Ania, Anka, Ewa, Ada, Justyna, Asia thank you all!

Meeting the girl!
I still remember the day after InfoXpression, actually i hanged all the night at USS hostel .. i reached at my home at 7:10 AM, no dobut i drowned into a deep sleep .. I am sure, after raeding this both Anubha and Vinay gonna hit me .. but who cares!! After 2 hours i got a call from Vinay .. I didnt know, how he was calling me .. he was with me at infoX .. "Hey Deepak, get up and come to college now!" said Vinay in constant harmonics ..."Areey, i am sleeping .. dont you know that?" I replied in sleepy voice ... "No, I dont know anything please come fast, we'll be have fun!" Vinay said before disconnecting the phone.
As i entered in the class .. allmost every student in the class was making a file .. i didnt know how Vinay gonna have fun with file stuff. "Abey, hello .. why did you called me here .. to make bloody file or something" i said ..like a professional killer ... "No No .. we are going to InfoX" Vinay replied .. "What? the hell you'll do there" i asked vinay .. "No nothing much, Anubha wanna meet Shaheen" Vinay replied .. somehow Anubha and Vinay convinced me .. and we walk to IGIT ... i called my friend Sangeeta .. to know wheather she was there or not ..she wasnt sure!
Somehow we couldnt meet her .. and we had a OS Practical .. so we had to come back ..we followed the shortest way to NIEC .. but unfortunatly ..we had to walk from PUSTA ROAD to SHASTRI PARK .. "Hello buddies .. lets go by Rikshaw" Anubha said .. like a CIA Agent .. "No, Lets Walk" Vinay Said .."Toldyaaaa" Anubha replied ... I remeber the palce of incident .. it was wedges and some tables on the road .. i guess it was a PANDAL of last event .."Lets jump over to it" Anubha said .. again like a CIA Agent ... "Oh yeah we should .. i am flying" Vinay said ... "Be carefull .. i am going to cross it slowly" .. i said in sissy tone.
Vinay was first to go .. he jumped over a 4 feet table .. like a James Bond, i didnt surprise but Anubha did .. now its Anubha's turn .. she was aware that it could be dangerous .. so she jumped slowly with little bit of mine help .. Finally we made it .. "Where is Vinay?" Anubha said ... "Oh he is that alley" i replied surprisely ... "What are you doing there, Vinay?" Anubha asked vinay firmly walking to him ... "Hey dont come here!!!" .. Vinay replied in femina voice ... "What! are you all right?" She said getting close to Vinay ... "Hey Deepak, stop her" Vinay odered me like a army person .. i didnt know why the hell he was saying to me .. but suddenly i focused my eyes to vinay's hand ..they were in front of zip of his jeans .. i laughed .. and Anubha also noticed that quite quickly that his jean had torned from the zip .. i was able to watch the color of Vinay's Underwear ..hehe .. Anubha gave a novel to vinay to hide the hole while walking ... "Whats the color of your underwear?" Anubha aksed ..Vinay turned his face to me and smiled ... "Tell me which brand you use to wear?" Anubha again asked vinay with enthusiasm!! "Jokey!" Vinay replied .. by the way .. i saw "Rupa" on vinay's underwear ..hehe! ..somehow we sent vinay to Ritesh's room ..which is next to our college .. and i ran to my class teaches and ask him to help me the buddy! .. when i came back with Ritesh to his room .. i saw Vinay is watching HARRY POTTER in towel!!
I was a great funny day, i am sure .. We all still remember it! especially Anubha!!

The Best Flower I Have!

Technical festival is something to earn money as well as to show my talent to my friends .. but i still remember the end of Jan ... a very friendly college had orgranized the techical fest, As Vinay is always a money and excitement lover like me, we made a team of two and planned to have fun overthere.
The Zenith ....was not only a tech fest but also a cultural fest, so we imagined we'd have lotta fun, so i carreid my camera .. to capture some moments as i did!
Here begains the story that happened in igit zenith 2005, I and Vinay just able to attend the last day of Zenith 2005 .. Prof. Gupta hangged us for the rest of the two days. We stepped into the IGIT, an eternal bliss came into our mind ... haha after seeing some many beautiful girls, something will definitly come to anyones mind ..secondly we arnt gay! I hopped my mind state everytime ..when i saw any girl..hehe i dont know about Vinay, may be he was stucked with one.
Finally, we're back to our target, that was money ..so we registered our team of two .. we had pleantly of time before get into the competetion. So i picked out the camera and played with it. Eventually i got this flower, smiling as always like wishing me "all the best".
Event started, i always though that girls has some problem with their commom sense .. which was proved on that day, we got a notepad ..to design a College website in 1 Hrs .. "What just you said?" I asked the girl ... "You have to design a website for your college in 1 hour in notepad, we dont have anyother tools" girl replied .... suddenly some other vocies were added to mine .. and i was feeling like president of some student union... but we couldnt do anything .. after 15 mins some more funniest quotes added ... "You have to do validation also using JAVASCRIPT" .. the girl said in monster tone! I lost hopes .. and just wanna to get out from the room as soon as possible. Ultimately i finished the stuff and i was out of the room! .. the websites we under examinations ..meanwhile we enjoyed the Mr. and Mrs. Zentith .. after watching the show, i reached at two conclusions, the one ... girls are best to host any cultural events ... and second ... you should always carry a camera to capture the girl ... lately i got to know that it was Shaheen Bardwaj's show. "Web Designing Final's Result is out!!" the girl with monster voice shouted on the mic ... "Hey vinay result is out, so what we gonna do" i said in diggy vocals ..."Nothing enjoy the Mr. and Mrs Zenith" vinay said in confident tone .. "Vinay is right, how can i miss the show, for bloody web-designing result" .. i thought my mind, as i belived that we had lost. After few mins, Vinay said "come on lets go an watch the result" I wondered .. but as i saw the helpdesk ... i got why he said that. Vinay asked the beautiful girl on the help desk "Hey, howz the result of web-desg final" in stylish tone .. like he wanted to impress her! ... she tolds some names ... included ours ..I wondered that we grabbed the second prize ..500 bucks! Ultimately final festa came to end .. we had some fun in JAM .. I was hoping Shaheen in dance session ..but she was eating sandwich on helpdesk ... "Where is my cell ... where is my cell phone" i heard someone shouting ... when i was turned it was Vinay ..hehe .. we ran to Help Desk .. where Shaheen was eating the sandwich in a stylish manner. "I forgot my cell phone in Lab during web-desg" the yellow coloured vinay said .. for his 1500 bucks creepy mobile .. "Yeah, we have recovered a mobile phone from lab" the girl next to shaheen said in heavy tone like they have recovered a lethal weapon! .. then the girls whispered .. i dont remember what they talked. Suddenly a new name came to my ears "Mrs. Jain" .. "Your phone is with Mrs. Jain" Shaheen said in cutey manner .. as girls ought to talk in that manner. She picked her mobile phone from her tight jeans .. and asked Vinay to call on his cell .... Vinay didnt hegitate and called his cell ... i knew that Vinay thoda saa beshram hai .. i meant he isnt a coy like me. All efforts were in vain .. Shaheen finally said "please follow me you guys .. we'll get your cell from Mrs. jain..she is Audi" ... Truefully, for me it was a great opportunity to follow a girl .. as i never did it before ..hehe .. But i am sure vinay was thinking of his creepy mobile ..Finally, Vinay's creepy phone was in shaheen's hand ... i am sure she'd have thought that these guys were searching this creepy mobile phone!!!!!!! Vinay got his mobile phone and i am not sure .. that we thanked her or not! .. i gues we forgot to say the finaly words.
I added those photos on the college website .. it was like when Tendulkar hits a ton ... i searched igit website to share that photos with them .. i got 3 names "Swati, Diksha and Sangeeta" .. i sent a common email to them .. and i wasnt expecting any replies .. but first Sangeeta ..then Diksha and then Swati replied in row .. so finally that flower has given me some beautiful friends .. so its a best flower for me!

Wooah!
Finally, i was into the books. I always thought that books are for loosers ..i mean .. movies are much better than book! i had a great debate on the books and movie stuff with Anubha and Diksha. I always been attracted by IIT, so i decided to read a book called "Five Points Someone" its based on IIT. Anubha told me .. once she started the book she just stick to it ..untill she finished it .. For a tough timed man .. it was like a good joke, you know i never into the books, i doubted on Anubha's wisdome.. but finally i got our end semester score in my mind ..Anubha has probably better scores. On that day .. i was crossing our pusta road ..i saw Aditya ..in front of me .. incidently i asked him "Hey Adi, you have five point someone?" knowing his answer that is NO. He nodded his head .. i said "What?" he said "just got today from a friends of mine .. you can take it and return me in month" .. i smiled and thought "Aditya Beta! jaa ab tujhe yeah book kabhi nahi milegi" which means I cant finish 270 pages book in a month ..lol
The day i started the book .. just read preface and a prologue .. nothign interesting i closed the book and sit on my PC.
On the next day, i was damm ill .. i was cold and sneezing blindly .. it was like my all girlfriends was missing me the same time! hehe .. i took that book .. and started the first chapter exactly at 2:50 PM ..i just planned to read 2-3 pages ..After finishing first 2 chaps in 30 mins .. i found nothing interesting .. so i decided to get back to PC ...but then my didi .. wants the PC and i started the 3rd cap ..lol.. i remember it was "Barefoot on metal". I had the whole IIT in my small mind .. when the girl NEHA came to my imagination .. everything was looking so beautiful .. i continued my reading till 9:10 PM .. when i finished that 270p book in 6 hrs.
The after effects of the book reading was great ... i have imagined everything .. the book was so great ..that i have canged my views on books and movies.. of course "our imagination is better than Directors" - Diksha said ..and all true! But book was little disappointing for me .. the story was damm fiction .. and i hate it .. i was expecting a real story .. and finally i got the story that written to earn money! .. its awful!!!
Final words .. thanks Anubha, Diksha .. and virtually Ania(who sent me great books) and remeber your nutty buddy! now i am into the loosers gang!

The Green Mile
Ah! finally i've seen the green mile, it's very nice movie full of humour, drama and fantasy. It's story of death row gaurds of penitentiary, who noticed that one of the prisoner at the penitentiary had gifed some extraordinary magical powers by god. The prisoner, John Corffy was eight fight black man, he was wrongly accused by a family of killing its two children. The gaurds had discovered him correctly and now they were in dilemma of execution of John on electric chair.
Beside various humour and excelltent direction, the movie is parsed with great emotions. You should see the scene when any one is executed by electric chair. But the Gaurd did their duty and execute John. In 1999, one gaurd was narrating this story to his friend and mouse that was saved by John extraordinary powers was still alive.
