FYP...

This is cool ..there are around some 40 days remaining for the final submission of the fyp .. but we haven't done any thing so far. Today we had to submit the progress report. I was wondering what to write in this ... that for the past two months we have done everything except contributing anything to final year project. What will I write, that I went to Shimla and we had a real gala time over there or we enjoyed rain dance in Ramoji or we ate chocolates in Majj's talk or the boating was fun in the class picnic. Anyway, as we are very good in doing BC ; especially me and Utkarsh. So it didn't take us much time to finish the report. It was full of lies that we did this thing and that thing and some 90% of this module is complete and the only major work remaining is the integration part ;) .. Well this time even our project guide was a little reluctant in signing the progress report. But as usually we convinced him. Well !! One thing is sure. Our final submission is going to be very tough. We will have to do so many things to save our face . Ok tab ki tab dekhenge .. for now its party time ... Felicity Rocks ... Going to participate in Online Treasure Hunt .. -- ‹^› ‹(•¿•)› ‹^›

P4Runs

Well !! Its not the Pentium 4 Processor which is running on my system :) Even I thought the same when I get to hear about this for the firsttime. It is our gang @IIIT and stands for the eight of us Pankaj Madhukar Pankaj Kumar Parivesh Pushpam Rakesh Utkarsh Nirnimesh Sunil Pankaj just created this blog p4runs.blogspot.com, dedicating to our friendship. Visiting this site and seeing all of us at a same place felt very good... but suddenly I felt that we are no longer gonna stay together. This is the last sem and after this all of us are going to choose our own paths.And who knows may be some of us will never meet again (though its highly improbable, meri shadi main to sab log aayenge hi :D ). This all thing reminds me of DCH.. the sea and the ship.. feels like I am that ship.. going farther away from my friends... ok ok ok ... need to study.. have a test tomorrow.. God save me from this God forsaken biology. -- ‹^› ‹(•¿•)› ‹^›

Yaaron (Nice Song by Kay Kay)

Yaaron, Dosti badi hi haseen hai
Yeh na ho to kya fir, bolo yeh zindagi hai
Koi to ho raazdaar, begaraz tera ho yaar
Koi to ho raazdaar,
Yaaron, Mohabbat hi to bandagi hai
Yeh na ho to kya fir bolo yeh zindagi hai
Koi to Dilbar ho yaar, Jisko tujhse ho pyaar
Koi to Dilbaar ho yaar.
Teri harek burai pe daanten woh dost.
Gham ki ho dhoop to saya bane, tera woh dost
Naache bhi woh teri khushi main....
Are Yaaron ! Dosti badi hi haseen hai
Yeh na ho to kya fir, bolo yeh zindagi hai
Koi to ho raazdaar, begaraz tera ho yaar
Koi to ho raazdaar.....
Tan man kare tujhe pe fida, Mehboob woh
Palkon pe jo rakhe tujhe Mehboob woh
Jiski wafa tere liye ho....
Are Yaaron ! Mohabbat hi to bandagi hai
Yeh na ho to kya fir bolo yeh zindagi hai
Koi to Dilbar ho yaar, Jisko tujhse ho pyaar
Koi to Dilbaar ho yaar.

Finallly ..

I compiled and installed the new kernel (2.6.10) on my system .. I was kind of ashamed that it is my 4th year and I haven't yet compiled the kernel. So today I woke up early in the morning at 8:30 (he he this is quiet early for me ) and came to the lab with this mission. Though when I used the new kernel for the first time .. It came with a littel surprise that the X was not working .. but that was a minor hiccup because it was the problem with Nvidia driver .. I reinstalled it .. and everything seems working pretty well... Well that's it now .. Have to read the wonderful world of Linux 2.6. U too can have a look here -- ‹^› ‹(•¿•)› ‹^›

Darbari Ka Darbar

Last night was fun ... we had Darbari ka Darbar .. in continuation of Majj's talk ... well for non IIITians .. this was just an get-together of our batchmates, but it was really something special for us .. we didn't do anything .. and neither publicised the event but may be because of some sentiments for the batch, that we are leaving in a few days.. it became very special ... anyway the beginning of the event was very bad ... all courtesy to some bad organizers like me :) and there was a point where me and Adi were almost sure that this is going to be a big flop show... thank God that somehow it ended pretty well ... we had the usual games like dumb charades, Antakshari and the "Ghoda Badam Chai" as usually in our own ishtyle ... The dumb charades involved the enacting of faculty or students. I gave a really tough question to Vidit .. he had to enact Amba kulkarni :)) .. Bapu came with this very wild idea that in Antakashri that if a team is singing someone from that team will have to dance on that particular song... I think this added life in the Antakshri ... though I was an organiser ... I shared the dancing stage with some of the teams ... The final game was Ghoda Badam Chai .. I have played this game many times in my childhood .. but wasn't aware that it is called so ... anyway this game was the biggest attraction of last night... where Adi Become a Murga ... Amal Sang a hindi song in a Girl's voice and told about her BTree ;) ... KBJ did the famous Veena number of Indra... Swati enacted DVD and Patke (though I am not sure whether that can qualify for acting)... Lahari enacted Jaya :) and Javahar Sir. The best part was when Parivesh mimicked PK and Manas and Prof Garry.... and when Jayaram enacted Paddy... It was too good to be explaind here ... Poor Darbari was again the victim of Jaya's jokes :D .. well just for a change this time he was not all alone .. Shetty too got his share with that special comment .. "Perfect Marriage Material " :) Well this was the end of the events... as it was Swati's birthday.. she had brought us a very delicious cake ... which was followed by the sweets that we had brought for the event and the Coffee party (again by Swati). PS: Kunal if you read this .. please give me one snap of maharaja Abhinav Darbari's so that I can add it here ..

Ramoji Trip

Well !! Surely there is nothing which can beat the Shimla Trip .. but this trip to Ramoji Film City also holds its place among the tops. A very memorable trip. Another example of my utter laziness. rest of the content of this post is shamlessly taken from Kunal's blog Space Of Kunal :) 28 of us went for a trip to Ramoji Film City.

Nerd test ...

Well!! Seems I am becoming a geek ... just see the results ..

Happy New Year

to me ofcourse.. this is my blog isn't it :) any way just joking ... a very happy and prosperous new year to all those who have accidently come to this page. Thinking about the last year filles me with some of very good memories. It was a kind of dream fulfillment year for me. Earlier in the 6th semester (January to June) I got a good chance to know the work culture of IT industry in the form of internship at Computer Associates India Ltd. I earned my first salary also, officially I finished my honours project (thanx to pankaj), did my best for Felicity and Farewell, got my first experience of social service with NSS. In the seventh semester (July to November) I became class representative as a side effect of which I become the studement parliament member also, did some voluntary work for campus placements, got placed in Oracle and worked as an tutor for first years. Well this semester was little disappointing for me in terms of Academics. I was about to fail in some courses due to the recent attendence rule of our institute but due to the latest modifications in the rule I ended with Ds. The year ended with a happier note as our gang went for a trip to Shimla. We enjoyed a lot. It was a wonderful and unforgettable experience with the mountains. I am leaving the details for my next post. There were many new things from the cyber space which I would like to write here. I started blogging and got addicted towards reading and writing blogs, Got invitations to make an Orkut and Gmail account both of which have revolutionalized the internet. Talking about the college. We became the seniormost UG Students. Got to see many new teachers and also the departure of our beloved Physics teacher Dr Naidu :), we experienced the trauma caused by the new attedence rule and at the same time enjoyed many events like Felicity, Freshers Day, Birthday of IIIT, The R&D Showcase and many others. The College opened many new research labs like communication lab and Robotics lab. We got to see the new CVIT and also the work for new Data Engineering lab started. IIIT got its share of publicity another time and OUTLOOK magazine praised the work done by LTRC. Many known faces left the campus making the room for many new faces to come. Though we gave the farewell to our seniors but it was looking like it is our own farewell. From that day onwards I get very sad and emotional whenever I think that this is my last year at college and in this June itself we will leave the campus and its very possible that some of us will never meet ever in life.
