2 months of freedom come 2 an end !!!

seems like yesterday when i was cribbing y the hell do we have holidayz
and when will this long timespan end!!!

but as the grass is alwayz greener on the other side ... so is the case this time!!
its practically been just one day in college that too with no regular studies and i've
already started missing holidayz!


so this post goes 2 bid farewell to amazing 2 months i had!!!!!!!!

i cant make my mind on what im gonna miss the most???
is it gonna be long sleepy afternoons?
the ones in which i pretended i was reading something and dozed
off listening 2 some nostalgic numbers. those sleepy hours which
ended only when my stupid phone rang( although i love it..) or when
my door bell sang the age old song(ting tong.. open the door.. ting tong..)
or.....

rare but long and exhausting badminton sesions with my bro??
the ones for which i had 2 bribe him making him remember every damn favour
i did for him. the ones in which we fought hard till one had no energy left...
the one in which we screamed so hard that my mother said one would murder
the other one 4 sure..:)) the one which now ceases to exist because we have either
spoilt all shuttles we had or they are lying on neighbour's balconies......



meaningless but damn entertaining msgr chats with noops??
the ones in which we chatted 4 uncoutable hours.the long hours which ended when
one got totally talli with neend.the ones in which we cursed every damn person on
this planet except each other..(hee hee :) )..the ones which prooved girlz can talk
whatever whenever whereever TIME or TOPIC no bar....

or..

long never ending walks which ended only because of darkening skies??
those long walks in which we chatted like crazy... in midst of dogs of all kinds ( :) )..
with a very narraow escape once (remember getting into a marriaga pty dd?? )
these meant so much 2 me.... the ones which made us realize how imp is to be normal
in this abnormal world...


reading whatever i felt like whenever i felt like??
this was also a fun part..i miss reading editorials like nything. not that someone
has stopped me from doing that. but i cant relish them as much as i did earlier..
and how can i forget how i enjoyed fountain head.. i really miss my vella time...


welll.....
mylist will never end!!!


but one thing is for sure, the holidayz had a grand end with trip 2 simla........
something we are just not forgetting pretty sooon!!

that i'll cover some other time!!

this one was 4 my holidayz!!

3 cheerz 2 me!!!

nothing and everything!!!

now that the placement feelinghas finally sunk in,its time to look at the world around again.
its really gloomy scene i might say!!well i'm not talking about anythingon personal level( na...)

its actually what's happening in our country that bothers me..

first of all the news channels havesuddenly woke up again to the sabrimalatemple incident..what a shame 2 our global image??imagine a country called as a hub 4 IT boom,country of modernists ,country having foreign investors lined up 4 trading..imagine such idiotic acts of discrimination against women of certain age group..i have no comments but 2 say its patheticthat such acts are still prevalent in society!!!

then when one starts looking around its not hindu religion who's been actinglike this! there are arguements like whyhave we never seen a female pope or female padri!!!(i can go on nd on nd on ..)


then one comes across plight of farmersin maharashtra. the very fact that thesuicides have continued even after PM's latest announcement of financial aid sayz a lot!!!its again really dispiriting 2 see farmers giving away their lives succumbing to financial pressures :(


then comes then news of indians struck in lebanon and fighting 2 make their way back 2 their home nation!!!


all these plights make our own appeargrotesque !!! how can we be cribbbing over our petty problems when there's so much to worry about!



all we are supposed 2 do is study during examsand manage good percentage!get a job somehow and start working@@while there are others fighting hard 4 basic necessaties@@how can we be complaining about right to informationwhen our right to pray has'nt even been granted!

there are girlies making statements like"one can never b too rich or too thin" well how can u be concerned with how u lookwhen ppl are dying in front of our eyes and u're nothing 4 that!
i have no idea what i want 2 convey from thispost!i just wanted a vent 4 my feelings and this one's the best available!


i am suggesting no reforms ! well i don't know any@all i wanted 2 do was tickle those jammed brainsto see what's happening all around!!it tells me i've been blessed with such great environment to live in with everything i'll ever need around me@@i don't want to spoil things by making any wrong decisions in life!

and if someone wants 2 take something gud from this post read on....
i've seen ppl fighting over such non existentissues that make u feel like slapping both andshaking them hard till they realize they are just wasting this beautiful life over absurd isues!!!
as far as i can recall most preposterous deeds areoutomes of clashing egos ! if one could just learn 2 cut out their attitude life would be so much moreendearing :)



so just chill!

CSC unleashed !!!

there were 5 rounds
-aptitude
-technical written
-extempore
-technical interview
-hr interview


i'm writing detail of interviews


TECHNICAL INTERVIEW !!!
my technical interview lasted about 10 minutes and ppl had there's lasting till half an hour so i was not sure wheather it was gud or not . but now that i have checked it seems i gave most correct answers :)
I WAS ASKED THIS

1.
INT I=5;INT J=7;INT K;K=++I+++J; COUT<
I SAID ERRORBECAUSE lvalue is requiredas ++i+++j will be reduuced to
++i++ +j
++i++will give ++5++which becomes 6++now it should have been 6=6+1but this is not true as 6!=7
we require a variable on left hand side hence lvalue required!!

then he changed the question to what will be output now
i+++j
ans is 12

2. what are deadlocks ?i gave a definition of system halt and 4 deadlock conditions!!!

3.write functions on call by value and call by reference

4. 3NF ??

2nf + there should be no transitive dependency
5.what is RDBMS ?

6.heap sort
i just said the upper key has higher value then lower key valuesin a heaprest i had no idea but i guess i defined heaps right so he
did'nt bother

7. binary tree ??


ABOUT PROJECT:::i had made an online testing software "analytica" using ASP.NET and ms access
he asked me to explain what i had done in that that was easyyyyy
may b there were more that's all i remember!


HR--educational background--family background--did u have any breaks in ur studies??--again he asked about analytica?( nd this was supposed 2 b HR) -he asked whether i did as part of some project or extra curricular activity--do u have any problem with our bond?? ofcourse not!!!


some more questions i heard.....something called aloha, all normal forms, mux-demux, arp, some crap about java,scope resolution opearator, abstract class, virtual class, os


will write more if i remember!!!

and yes i was selected :) !!!

Fountain Head Revisited !!!

before i forget all that i had read this summer i thoughtits better 2 make it permanent on the net!

so i read this book called "THE FOUNTAIN HEAD" (although the reason why itwas called so is not clear to anyone i know! i'll give my interpretation later).
the protagonist here is a banda called howard roark (an architect whonever finished college ) who's portrayed as an individual who's really rare to find these dayz!

the story unfolds different situations of roark's life nd gives the reader his perspective of looking at things and how other characters look at things.

roark is presented as a person who does'nt give a damn about what peoplethink about him! he believed that his college had nothing gud to offerhim. he believed that architecture should not be about creating fancy buildings but cheap affordable accomodations.


but these were not the qualities which made him different the thing which struck me most that it did'nt mattered to him what others felt of his work.he has been shown completely stoic to what he believes in and changed for nobody!!!just nobody!!!

well this kind of ideology might look as a daring one BUT..Is It Really Feasible???
can any one of us today just abandon the society we're living in and start living as we feel is right!can any one in today's world neglect the importance of group activities and find oneself potent enough 2 deal with anything?????

Audacity may appear as a gud quality of an artist, as he dares to try out new things but where do we draw the line??howard has been shown as a person who defies all norms that exist of present day society!


as we'll be part of the corporate world in near future we are supposedto dwell in groups and work as teams so i have some serious doubts whether there are any howard roark's in today's times??


well anywayz, he comes out as hero in the end and the book is gudreflection of how a person is exploited at hands of some smarter ppl!!!


advice:: ppl who wish 2 read the book must be ready for a boring start but as the story progresses u'll b totally into it!!!!!!!

rating:: ***(out of 5)


and about the title::well i think it was "fountain head" because howard roark was an abundantsource of knowledge!!( compare with fountain having abundant source of water).

don't expect any head with a fountain as i did!! :)

Muzic Unlimited!

sometimes i feel what would i do if there was no muzic in thisworld???
that's a really scarry thought....

with holidayz on verge of completion and placement fever runninghigh the one thing which made me feel gud all through this scorchingheat was gud muzic.though i know i can listen anything to anything under the sun(that just suits so perfectly !!) but this time round i fell for some really nice mesmerizing no's which i thought i must write down ,so that in case if i see this blog after sometime i can some tips 2 feel good!


the list goes like this..

->celine dion-beauty nd the beast
well this is what's written as song title but it has no beauty or beastin its lyrics.its a bewitching song nd these dayz i can listen 2 it all day long.

->james blunt-u're beautiful
although this banda is pretty freaky but he sings really well.this is one of those rare songs u'll like on the first go..(exception being there if u're deaf yr 2 gud muzic)

->ankahee- aa pass aa
the first time listened 2 it i was like wow..but alas i did'nt had this song although i had the whole movie'ssongs.that's when net came in handy nd i had it in no time nd enjoyed it thereafter..

->ricky martin- private emotion

though its hard 2 believe that the livin'la vida loca boy can givea soft song but this one though old is one of my all time favourites..

->enrique- hero
no list can be complete without enrique and his latino accent...though his videos can not be watched with ease(nd i really mean that!)but his songs can b listened 2 all day long!!!!!!!!!

some good albums..well there are ones like of raghav and jay sean which have all the nice songs. ppl like latest indian idol(don't know his name..) orthe zee's assamese invention stand no where near them.their muzic has touch of hip hop and nice tunes all in all a gud package!and there are many more but i'll need more space 4 that nd i've gotbetter works 2 b done so.. the list ends



its surprising infact shocking to see ppl existing without having a sweet tooth 4 nice muzic. well i've got a complete set of them!so ppl chill the hot weather with this sm cool muzic as i do!!!!

ciao

The Story Of Perceptions!

So i've finally decided! actually have made my self believe that i have no sense whatsoever of judging people!

the reason !
well once again one of my judgements have gone completely wrong!
the person i had declared to be a hitler, had no grudges to announce
publically that he's totally pakau and whom i can't stand
turned out to be a pretty cool human being!
(b4 this leads 2 any speculations and controversies its a teacher
i'm talking bout !!)
that banda just gave me one of the most rocking morning sessions!
i really had a good time after a long time.


and this is not the first time!
around 2 yrs back i was totally shocked to hear a banda clear CAT!
though i thought him 2 be gud for nothing except cricket
and pranks he played on others!
(although i have no doubts whatsoever i owe a lot to him
4 inspiring me in a strange kind of way! the very idea of
great campus life was alluring enough!)


and...
remember some aunties uncles u never feel like talking 2!
and after some interaction they become kind of buddies.
i've got one aunt whom i really loathed simply cause she
did'nt followed any norms i thought existed, but when i started
talking to her it seems she's handling situations superbly!
a divorcee and a single mom she's a perfect example
of a lady holding her head high in this male dominated
world!

and my list can go on and on and on!

why can't we judge people is the question?
do people change or are we incompetent to make
judgements?
well i don't know...

i've just
given up the theory that "first impressions are last ones!"

sometimes i feel why can't we just see people and makeout
what they're like. but things don't work like that!
the intricacies of a human mind cannot be perceived
by human eyes!

and if u are a girl the matters are even worse!
let go of the fact that anyone else might get u right u might
urself might not be able to know urself !!!


the best thing is to have friends whom u can understand at
times and who in return understand u back !
maybe not in totality but a even small percentage is a welcome
phenomenon!

its really nice to be urself in front of such people!
u can say whatever whenever no questions asked!!!

so finally i will just say that don't be judgemental of
people whom u really don't know, take ur time .
sometimes its not that bad 'to not have an opinion
on something in life!
let every individual explore his /her own space
while u dwell in urs with the ones u care about!

Getting Confused!

people don't think that i'm
obsessed by word "getting" its just going
well with the title!

This is the time of utmost importance (once again!)
for our careers. Now at the verge of passing out our college
we are once again faced with 2 way street!!!

ONE
->one takes us to a job! which won't b a problem(if god forbids!!!)
this road has really large visibility range!
as u can see urself working 4 atleast 2 yrs.after that god knows.

->this road provides immediate satisfaction 2 many as one can
finally be econmically independent!

->but what after 2 yrs. do u want 2 b struck tothe same job or
????


TWO
->this is the road to knowledge.
its really foggy visibility range really low!

->this road takes u to more yrs of studying something with
which all are pretty much pissed off by now!

->but if u make a mark in here u will have more
financial security.(for dumboos this means big packages yaar!)


BUT BUT BUT
which road do i choose?
->well don't expect me to answer that 4 u! it has 2 be an
individual's decision.
no one decide 4 u yaar!

can i leave one completely?
->well here i can help! people i don't think u should ever
close any open door with ur own hands(don't take it literally ps)

given an oppurtunity u should never show it a backface,
never kill ur fate with ur own hands!!



and after all this crap!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

there's onething i fear the most in my life its TIME its the
only thing not in my hand hence i don't know much bout it!
though its said 2 b the cure of all bad things its always had
something unexpected 4 me throughout my lifetime!!

whenever i'm sure of smthing in life the new time brings with it
smthing completely unexpeced.
i'm not complaining i'm having a really blessed life(touch wood!),
but i really don't know what lies ahead its really foggy!!!!!!!!!!!!!
