"Integration"

Got up late as usual ....headed straight to class and then came to lab and called to my close(school) friend narendra,from my office(lab) phone coz...no minutes in my cell phone (I don't know how people are managing with 600 minutes a month ..!!!!!as iam short on minutes...and long on calls,.. Office phone comes to my rescue often!!! Happy are the times when we meet our close friends with whom we can be ourselves...(no need to remind urself that u shud be smiling......coz the smile which goes miles comes naturally) !!!!!!! after that sat down to do a bit of integration required for my code.."INTEGRATION" I like this word , but am afraid of the mathematical interpretation of it..!!!!(iam a C.B.S.E guy with M.Bi.p.C in my +2 so all i could learn in my school was the spelling and pronounciation of this easy to spell and hard to do thing).
u know this saying "ae dhaari leni vaadiki godari dhikku " in a similar fashion "ae lekka raani vaadiki softwares a dhikku" y late I jumped to Maples software and got the integration done..
I thank all the techies...
who gave me games to play..
chat rooms to talk..
search engines to get waht i want ..
last but not the least s/w s to work....

Happy news :my friends returned from INDIA (who cares whether they come or not wat is imp here is whether they brought sweets or not..)and luckily they got loads of them...I have nothing to do except to get myself buried under those stuff(ah...those arisalu,kaaralu and stuff...they simply rock....!!!).was awake until 4:00 am talking to Mr Cool phani..about hyderabad and about the traffic there...decided at that very moment that I should visit INDIA Asap....
Hopefully the wish goddess grants mine.....

hey Komal I too took the colour test and my colour was yellow...

Tagging....

Does this girl know only "Ragging and Tagging"?????? was my initial exclaim after checking my comments......Guess what?? I have been tagged (am I a paper??).Wait ..don't aim ur lasers on me but point them onto Rohini for further details ..
Initially I thought I maynot manage to blog with the kind of schedule i have but somehow Iam just manging to do it..kudos to myself..Here goes my details..

Gender:Female

1. shouldn't be a blogger...coz I don't want to be overshadowed by someone from my own house or one relaxation allowed in this condition is that she should blog for me also..

2. every act of mine should always be returned by a sweet smile...

3. nannu poddhunne niddhura lepakudadhu..(she shouldn't wake me early..)punishment:first day warning istha second day dismiss chestha...

4. you all know that i don't like praises but she should say that Iam the most handsome person and whatever I do can only be done by me...in the best possible way..

5. She should be the best cook ever to enter a kitchen..God Iam bored of eating the self made food ....

6. She should be so humorous that it should take only seconds for a joke to follow another......:p

7. She should be honest enough to admit that she is the alltime Blockhead...and together we make a blockbuster couple...

8. Should never ask for any jewellery..know waht she can buy me anything if she would like to ..no permission needed for that....!!!! This is the greatest privelige she can ever get..!!!!

wow!!! 8 is such a sweet number to arrive at..Iam happy iam finally here..

It took more than my sweat to describe my sweetheart!!!!!!!

just kidding guys....)
To tell you the truth..She should fill the void in my life which can be done only by her...She should bring happiness unbound into my life...She should make me laugh,cry,happy and sad(when she isn't around..)!!!!! She should be both my strength as well as my weakness..I should always feel that she is the best thing happened to my life..Together we should be complete.....She shouldn't be withoutme even for a nano second(10^-9)....Hope it isn't boring....

To Sum up..
She should be"karyeshu dasi , karaneshu mantri , bhojeshu maatha, Kshamaya dahrithri".
y did i use "should " all through this??? coz I don't have a lover yet..which is bad..hope against hope hopen taht I get one this year..(no Americans please..only Indians!!!)

Now come the victimes...
as the tagline goes "always search where you lost..(english translation sucks...)"!!!.So,So,So waht?? Always victimise those who made you a victim..so the list goes thus..
1) Rohini
2) Archana
3) Rohini
4) Archana
5) Rohini
6) Archana
7) Rohini
8) Archana..

Sorry Archana and rohini I don't know many bloggers to tag..hopefully next time when i get tagged I will definitely try not to tag you...

Please "kshamaya Dahritri"

Happy Pongal

Can anyone just tell me what it takes to Get up at 6 in the morning???coz..On a daily basis I make a promise to myself saying "Today is the last day Iam getting up late and from tomorrow 6 am sharp is the wakeup time".Asusual I woke up Today at 9:20 am and Thank God realised early that today is The Festival(Bhogi..)and managed to take a head bath so that when I call up my mother Iwon't get any scoldings(atleast on a festival it's a No-No) and then walked into class at 10:00.In INDIA festivals have been real source of enjoyment where we enjoy the entire day with our relatives and friends..This is one of the things which I miss here..It's just another day devoid of anything special except that it is the last working day of the week and this is a long weekend.Also missing are the sweets which are specially made on festival days. who can forget those days when we used to compete so as to make eachone's "Bhogimanta" as big as possible. These are only some of the many things of fun which we had on festival days.After the class I went to the Seminar by a technical expert of FORD Company who lectured on Port Fuel Injection.In the seminar I was thinking of the dishes which mom used to prepare for "pandaga roju" Naturally, these thoughts made my mouth watery but soon I was pinched by the reality tat if u want to enjoy the "Pandaga vantalu" the first and basic thing is that you have to do them(By urself of course...which anyway cannot happen because the only things I can make are pappu and annam(I can make some very good rice.. in Rice cooker ofcourse..)) So decided to call my home and ask mummy about how to prepare some sweets which was stopped by my friend..because he cared about the well being of my room mates.(heard of the dialogue.."VANTATHO CHAMPESTHA..." adhi naadhe!!) . So emi chestham maa roomies ki sweets thine praptham ledhu ani saripettukonna..ThenI came to my lab and while I was checking my sentmail..I found this joke in my sent mail(Endhuku check chesanu abba...endhukante.........sorry Naaku theliyadhu..)....Kopam gaa vundha ..kottalini vundha..antha voddhule kaani ee joke chadhavandi amma.
A friend of mine kindly pointed out to me that this is a joke from sherlock holmes' plays....so friends please don't mind...sometimes ctrl+c happens.....

A MBA and an Engineer go on a camping trip, set up their tent, and fell asleep. Some time later, the Engineer wakes his MBA friend.

"Look up at the sky and tell me what you see

The MBA replies, "I see millions of stars."

The Engineer asks "What does that tell you?"

The MBA ponders for a minute:

"Astronomically speaking, it tells me that there are millions of galaxies and potentially billions of planets.

Astrologically, it tells me that Saturn is in Leo. Time wise, it appears to be approximately a quarter past three.

Theologically, it's evident the Lord is all-powerful and we are small and insignificant.

Meteorologically, it seems we will have a beautiful day tomorrow.

What does it tell you?"

The Engineer friend is silent for a moment, and then speaks.

"Practically...Someone has stolen our tent".

have you already read this joke?? NO problem it doesn't matter now..because it's too late , you have already read it second time too..
All Southies enjoy the Pongal (I don't know if sankranthi is celebrated in north)
Wish you a Happy pongal..

perfect disaster

what is the time required to turn a perfect scene into a disaster?? I was wondering until yesterday,y until yesterday?? because I got the answer yesterday and the answer is just a few minutes.It hurts when you are at the receiving end(but who can help it??).I was hoping a perfect semester with only 2 courses until yesterday when I walked into my prof's room, who barely managed to land in the campus from vacation and asked me if I could manage another 4-credit hour course(normally each course is of only 3 credit hrs).The baton has been passed!!Now what?? That was a perfect disaster I could imagine of because that makes my credit hours to go upto 13(4 more than required..).That made me to go into a depression until I read this article about "COURAGE".Now folks you too have a look at it......

This is a famous paper written for an Oxford philosophy exam,
normally requiring an eight page essay answer and expected to be backed up with source material, quotes and analytical reasoning.
This guy wrote the below answer and topped the exam!

OXFORD
EXAMINATION BOARD 1987


ESSAY QUESTION


Question: What is courage? (50 Marks)

Answer: This is courage

I don't know if this is true but I appreciate his Courage.......

Love Is great

Credit goes to my school friend who sent me this:

Nurse: "It was a busy morning, approximately 8:30 am,

when an elderly gentleman, in his 80's, presented to have sutures
(stitches) removed from his thumb.

He stated that he was in a hurry as he had an
appointment at 9:00 am. I (nurse) took his vital signs and had him take a seat, knowing it would be over an hour before someone would to able to see him.

I saw him looking at his watch and decided, since I
was not busy with another patient, I would evaluate his wound. On exam
it was well healed, so I talked to one of the doctors, got the needed
supplies to remove his sutures and redress his wound.

While taking care of his wound, we began to engage in
conversation. Asked him if he had a doctor's appointment this morning
somewhere else, as he was in such a hurry. The gentleman told me no, that he needed to go to the nursing home to eat breakfast with his wife.

I then inquired as to her health. He told me that she
had been there for a while and that she was a victim of Alzheimer Disease.

As we talked, and I finished dressing his wound, I
asked if she would be worried if he was a bit late. He replied that she no
longer knew who he was, that she had not recognized him in five years now.
I was surprised, and asked him. "And you are still
going every morning, even though she doesn't know who you are?" He smiled as he patted my hand and said. "She doesn't know me, but I still know who she is."

I had to hold back tears as he left, I had goose bumps
on my arm, and thought, "That is the kind of love I want in my life."

True love is neither physical, nor romantic. True love
is an acceptance of all that is, has been, will be, and will not be.

Good friends are like stars...You don't always see
them, but you always know they're there

Girl Friends!!! Y aren't they there


The often repeated topic. It seems to be a mystery until you really start thinking. One of my personal favorites. Why some men can never fall in love ornever get girl friends? Many of us just keep complaining without thinking onwhat the inherent problem is.

Thankfully I did it as a case study and found out some important issues whichmight concur with a majority of people who are rocking the same boat as mine.

1) You always sit in the last bench with the other class rogues and otherpeople who feel that its possible to get marks sitting in last row. In caseof workplace no girls are there in your project and u have like minded peoplelike you as colleagues and whereinyour entertainment oscillates between the bars and cinema theaters.

2) U obviously cant groove and dance and dance around in a group in a disc byjust shaking your head or grooving your hip. Desi music directors are yourfavorites. Devisri prasad simply rocks and u cant wait for a gaana or a bangra number to crop up. And you are too adept at dancing theenmaar or desi dance not the americanised western hip hop dance.

3) U perceive discotheque to be a place where u will have a chance to unleash your dancing potential(theenmaar) and occupy the center stage with 10 other fellow rogues immediately throwing out the babes from the vicinity of the dance floor. This automatically repels the women from you( they consider u as out of civilization, and we are the only ppl who can really dance..)

4) Your intelliegence level mostly can take in just jackie chan, arnold and stallone flicks. It can take in just action films whose contents can be absorbed. You just can't take major english romance films. Desi romance rocks.We invariably are the DDLJ and hum aapke hai kaun types. Rajni , Kamal,Shahrukh, Amir, Chiranjeevi rock. Tom Cruise is a dud!!! and invariably sucks...(obv..its becoz of jealousy..)

5) You obviously dont know how to make use of yahoo messenger and is used to scold your online friends with the best choice of invectives, spread rumours abt other guyz,and ask them to book the latest movie tickets. You unfortunately don’t know how to flirt using yahoo messenger and are frequently at loss of topics when you want to chat with some girl. Whereas u r deluged with strange topics to discuss with your friend with whom you had lost touch for the past decade or so.

6) You cant eat spanish, Italian foods and fav: restaurant invariably happens to be Andhra Mess, udipi restauarant,any road side fast food,gupchup types. We frankly are clueless as to what are bella, ciao, Tangerine and things like that unless we happen to go an a treat organised by the other guyz...:)

7)You dont see a reason why u have to go to barristas or qwiky's when the local corner naidu chaay" tastes like nectar and satisfies you more than a barristas. lime tea is the best tea to have been invented by an human and you are thankful to naidu for providing it to you.

8)Most of the jokes you know are adult jokes which you can discuss only with your other fellow comrades and which again takes the opportunity from telling a joke to the girl and impressing her. Besides you seriously tell very good jokes which the blondes can't comprehend or think it is vulgar. You have to tell some absolutely "stale jokes"( terrible bores) to make them laugh which though you try hard u will never be able to.

9) you seriously cant start a topic with a member of the opposite sex. I have seen guyz chatting with girls purely with emoticons for more than a hour. You can never do that. you will have to crack real dumb jokes to start the conversation or falsely extol them. The
most important drawback we have is that we cant talk about what she had for breakfast.You seriously can't talk about that. We refer to those kinda talk in telugu
as sollu...

Boy : what did you have for breakfast??

Girl : i had idli ....

Boy: Is it??? same pinch no back pinch i too had idli ..(he slyly pinches her) and laughs..

Girl : Ouchhh(artificially)...it hurts..

Boy: ohh.. I am sorry and (tries to apologise..)..then say "; i had sambhar for idli.."

Girl: (excitedly)..sambharrrrrrrr............ i had chutney....and giggles...

I swear I cant tolerate any longer than this...this is not figment of
imagination. I have seen this...though I agree there may be
exceptions..

10) U cant sing bryan adams ,sting,george michael's song.. when they talk about linkin park you cannot even imagine who they are and the closest link you can associate with them is nehru park.

11) U seriously are clueless as to what rock music are

12) all thru college life u belong to this boyz gang and even in your gang nobody has a girlfriend so there is absolutely an absence of the inspirational factor.

WITH ALL these attributes its difficult for guyz like us to fall in love or find a girl. But it is not a sin after all. I guess we are not made for it. Let us accept that and be proud of that we are one among the few in the vanishing tribe and amen to it..

we have THE uniqueness that we remain single till we get married and having that trait is really a virtue and who knows, we might be the elite clique in the future. so all those of you who feel sad that they dont have Gf's chill !!! we are not made for it and I swear for our characteristics a GF would not have added any value addition and we are better off staying single till 28 or 30.
