No time for blogging

These days blogging is not the same fun it used to be. May be because I've grown lil "extrovert" as one of my friend says.
Okey. These are the hot news from life these days.
  • Screened out from the HUL GD for intern. I thought I made it through for interviews but was proven wrong. Oh! I suppose I missed by an inch. Before all of this I was much confident of getting selected for intern in HUL. Don't know why but it was a feeling. So here we see feelings are proven wrong. Now the search for intern remains.
  • Mid-sems are up from 30th this month. With all the time spent over StockSim, there is a reason to worry.
  • Stock Simulator is uploaded on students server. All the problems are fixed except that the JDBC drivers aren't working on students server. So the problem will be fixed after the Mid sems. Probably after 1st next month.
  • Yesterday there was a lecture organized by AME (Association of Mechanical Engineers) by the first HOD of Mech. department, IIT Kanpur. By this way it sounds like a usual buddha-type image. But after meeting him I was amazed. He was such a man with clear vision about everything that I've never seen. You can talk with him over anything, just anything.

The only thing is med-sems in mind. So I'll be off for some more days.

ITC intern. No

Current Mood: All fuss in my mind. Lot amount of heat coming of it.

My mind is going wild now. Just to think if I made the right decision.

In the morning session was an informal talk with ITC representatives. They were proving the points of ITC being best and blah blah. Talking about the working condition and the kind of job/interns only for tobacco. They said ITC is not all about tobacco, they have other products too. But the are here to recruit mainly for tobacco. It was hard for me to imagine my self working for improvement cigarette production. This was main drive for me. I came back and mailed to sposecy to withdraw my application.

But I hear in the evening from my friends that my name was there in 36 shortlisted candidates for GD. How come that. After some phone calls I was told that ITC-men want to meet me to know as per why I wanted to withdrew my application for interns. What should I tell them? I don't know. I went there but it finally so happened that the meeting was not able to materialize.

At the end of the day I abide by my conscience. Let alone the so called one of best industry interns. I stand here satisfied by what I have done today. This is a building day in my life and of my life.

My cubeing page

I got my personal best today. 74 sec. It came as a birthday gift. A good one. I'm improving. I've got my own cubing page on the webhome server. Catch it here. Now next target is sub-60. I'll do anything for it. I've tried much with my old cube. Lubricated it with wax, talcum powder, Vaseline jelly. Still can't get it right. I want a good cube now. Also working on finger tricks.
It used to be my passion. But recently my friends say that its not passion, its your obsession now! hah! Anything it may be. I'm lovin it!!! SPEEDCUBING!

It's B'day again

Here I am after a long interval again. Its been quite lot difference between some of my last postings.
Today I will talk about "this day". As I sit in hall 2 I see time repeating itself. days passing into months and months in years. Little has changed hence. I recall my last B'day (here are some memories of it.) and then this one today. It was too much same bit different. It was a day of few realizations. I think this time over 70-80 people wished me today(including orkut/college/phone calls). Last year the figure was much different. How is that. Am I really overcoming my as-people-call-it "introvert" thing. I never realized but this day that I have many friends and buddies around now. Well Sauce, its working now. The book has changed the course of life. Today I stand on cloud and compare my first blog post(Acquaintance/Relationship Unexplored) and this one. Its really worth man!!! How u say?

Well it was large day in terms of happenings also. At first it was dozens chappals striking my bum with the stroke of 24th hour of yesterday. Then it was surprise party by wing mates. I tell you these wing mates of mine are one of my biggest assets. God save it! From morning it was quite the same old story of lectures, assignment. I tried to keep the album of the day but I could only produce these: http://picasaweb.google.com/saurabh.chawdhary/BDay. Freshers for juniors of Mech. dept. was today. Put up for some time there. It was decent show and a good dinner indeed



One more GPL from dept. friends. That was my day.

Morning comes. And comes again the sore throat problem. oh God. It was same as experienced at the end of lst sem. And then remember what happened after I took medicine from HC(Health Centre). Damn it! Those Morons of HC.

Problem furiates me more and more in the day. I think I need to visit home coming weekend for treatment.

Lets wait and watch how things shape up.

And now on I've decided to put on blogs

Boring is Normal

(Current Mood: Nostalgic)

Days passed and I have been proving wrong the header of the blog. I have written nothing since. Now I'm into new semester after having my last over-month visit to home. Never will I get such long time for home-stay. Life has been hassle in the short span after return to Kanpur. Registration was sting. But now its over. I'm in MTH506: Optimisation course after much do around with DUGC of my dept.

So the days are normal again. I read this oneliner somewhere: Normal is boring. Hah! For here, boring is normal. Though days have changed a little as this year saw me moving to third year. Seems there are lot of studies this year with 6 courses of the sem. Once again I have lots of plans but no promises this time after I encountered last sem. Besides, I will be happy if I learn to break the monotonicity of my life that's been following from few years. This post was a step towards the same after staying away from blogging for so long.
