“Punctuality is the art of guessing how late the other fellow is going to be “
I have admired this quote many a times . :-) :-) . Infact it is one of my fav .

Today i got a message saying
“Hey..Dulta meeting today.. At 8pm .. Sun Lab ..Every1 must come.. So be there.. !

Being confused about whether i am a dulta member or not, i finally decided to attend this meeting . Not because i decided to work dulta, neither i am afraid about chucked out of dulta , but i was jobless and anyway i will be in SUN lab working for my SOC. So i did not mind attending the meeting .

But things went really great . I never realised that the 8 PM is “dulta’s 8 PM” . And just today i came to know that there is a timezone difference of 30 minutes between IST and Dulta’s Time :) :)

I went to sun lab at around 7.45 (foolish me) and started coding for LDTP in the SUN systems. Yazhini,
Padmini and Deepak Kumar Jha came there on time (all three compsci’s ) . Some 10 mins after that , Nitin (a prod guy ) came to me asking whether there was a dulta meeting there or not ? .

I was really really curious to know who sent that message. I really hoped that DK sent that message ( he was the only senior present there ) . But seems he did not send that message . Finally i asked yazhini and padmini not to waste their time and they went back to their hostel by 8.30 . DK also went to room saying that he has to finish his English report.

Finally “the man” who sent that message came exactly at 8.35 :) :) . I expected him to say a sorry to the members waiting there . But again i was surprised to see him to start directly as
“Ok everyone check http://dulta/info and i want it to be nitt.edu by tonight . Think we have to work tonight blah blah blah blah …”.

I also like this quote
If I have made an appointment with you, I owe you punctuality, I have no right to throw away your time, if I do my own.
Richard Cecil

I really wish these people learn this someday soon .
But yes , i learnt some new stuff from this strange experience .
1. Dulta is always waste of time.
2. Never ever make anyone wait for you.

Two stories :)

This is my blog and i have all rights to crap here . This blog may appear as total crap for few, may mean more to few . I really don’t care what you are gonna think about me after you read this .

Read the following two stories

Story 1
Once upon a time , there was a crow and a fox . Both of them were hungry and the crow somehow managed to steal a vada from a paatti . It flew to a near by tree and planned to eat it there . This fox was very cunning and planned to steal the vada from the crow . It said all nice nice things about the crow and asked it to sing a song . The crow started singing kaka and the vada fell down . Fox ate the vada and ran away .

Moral of the story
Dont bring the vada outside the canteen and don’t sing while eating a vada.

Story 2
Once upon a time there lived a crow . It was very thirsty . It searched for a water everywhere but could not find water anywhere . Finally it found a pot with very little water . But the water level was too low for it to reach . But this was a clever crow and saw pebbles lying around the pot. It dropped these pebbles into the pot one by one and slowly the water level rose. The crow drank water and flew away happily

Moral of the story
Dont know :)

Again i was jobless :P googling something arbit , when i saw the “I am Feeling Lucky” button in google.
It is one of the features in google which i have never used. I always prefer seeing the list of search results and click atleast 10 of them :P

But it made me think for a moment . Am i lucky. And the answer is “YES” .

Why should i be feeling lucky ???

I think i have got the best seniors one could ever have . They are friendly, simple and spending time with them , anyone will have loads and loads of fun :) :) :) . And yes they are real “fundoos” who has done amazing things during their college life :) :) :)

And the best part is i never felt anyone as my senior. They are actually my “best friends”.
The list goes like this .

Satya Madhav Kompella (Madhav)
Met him in my first year . Taught me C and C++ in the cry classes :) . A real fundoo but simple down to earth . Wish i could meet him sometime
Shankar Ganesh (Shagan)
My LDTP senior :P . OMG . This guy surely rocks . FUN FUN FUN . That’s all i had when i spend time with this guy.
Manu (Manu)
Learnt a lot from him . An ideal senior :) . Mr . Perfect in everything. Only kandu without a GF in college :)
Allagappan Muthuraman (Alagu)
Helped me learn lots and lots during my second year in lrsl . :) He is really an amazing guy
Manas Garg (Manas)
My Spider senior . God . That explains everything :)

Note :: Sorry for few mistakes in the blog :P . I wrote this one in prasanna’s algorithmic tricks class and obviously you tend to make mistakes when someone is disturbing you with dfs , bfs , dp etc :) :) .
So got confused betweeen a mallu and a kandu :) :)
And yes , i should have put “AJAX alagu” there , that would have made things clear :P

This is what www.shutdownday.org says

It is obvious that people would find life extremely difficult without computers, maybe even impossible. If they disappeared for just one day, would we be able to cope?
Be a part of one of the biggest global experiments ever to take place on the internet. The idea behind the experiment is to find out how many people can go without a computer for one whole day, and what will happen if we all participate!
Shutdown your computer on this day and find out! Can you survive for 24 hours without your computer?
International Shutdown Day

I voted for “I Can” , though i have no clue what i am gonna do on that day.

Hmmm , maybe sleep , spend time chaating with friends. I just hope i dont go mad after few hours without computers :P . Cha without computers no movies, no coding , no songs , no games , no browsing :( :(

I am planning to shutdown few servers under my control . Let us see how it goes :) :)

Wow , this suits my college cycle tests also . The one and only thing which i hate in my college is CT’s :( :(.
Those 3 days ,
I try to read something and end up sleeping the whole day.
I think that i wont go to octa, end up making a night out there.
At the end i always find that i have never read the syllabus even once and wont be able to finish the full portions :)

And this time i noticed that some of my friends who are real padipps were also getting frust coz of CT’s

Some of the messages or quotes which they mentioned during their peak of frustration .

1. Dude , tell me one thing . Why do i feel so sleepy when i try to study and never when i’m in lab ?

2. It is study time :( i mean sleepy time ;)

3. Aah i never disliked studies so much

4. Cycles prep Aa? It sucks !

5. :( :( I’m going to himalayas. No more CT’s in my life.I will take lots of food stuff, eat and roam aroud there.

6. CT SUCKS

7. If there were one more CT, i would have killed one of these prof and gone to jail..

8. Lets kill mala, then they will postpone the CT’s

9. Lets mail Bush that Osama is hiding in CSE dept . He will bomb the dept and they will cancel the CT’s :)

The list is long and i cant post everything here . God save these frust people. Save me from my dept :) :)

Was checking out the settings of google reader and found this quite interesting .

The next bookmark is an innovative way to read your subscriptions. It allows you to use Google Reader through just one link – clicking on it takes you to the next unread item, marking it as read in the process. It is particularly useful for subscriptions which only include snippets or when you want to read an article in context.

But when i clicked the tab i got a page saying
I myself dont believe in end of internet and the page was not the end of the internet , since that page still had a link to some other page . The links said it all
http://www.shibumi.org/eoti.htm

The contents of the page (for those who dont want to go to end of the internet )
The End of the Internet
Congratulations! This is the last page.
Thank you for visiting the End of the Internet. There are no more links.
You must now turn off your computer and go do something productive.
Go read a book, for pete’s sake.
