Girth

Some times i think of things which i could never tell to someone.....not even my best friends. Couldn't share it with people who are close to me, don't know the reason for it. Things do get sorted out sometimes but it doesn't materialize always . Few moments do come into our lives when we create a girth around us that we allow no one to interfere..........but its really of no use, isolating thoughts is a good technique but somtimes it hurts the other person. This post might be abstract to people reading but cant help it.
Again a little peom by my friend who wishes to be anonymous:

It’s for a nobody who was somebody for me some tym ago
It’s for a nobody for whom my words were true
Somebody who thought of me as a nobody
Somebody who faked it all just like the words

It’s for a thing which remained incomplete
It’s for a thing which remained in dreams

It’s always for things which I didn’t hear
It’s always for thoughts which never realized

It’s for promises which couldn’t materialize
It’s for heartbreaks which were silent

It’s for things which I thought happen for the good
It’s for things….those same which saddened me

It’s always the same all over again….
But this time the November rain ends…..

Diwali of my childhood

So this year again Diwali round the corner, makes me nostalgic once again(i bet all the readers would feel the same recollecting Diwali of their childhood). Its again all those sweet aroma in the house, lanterns and decorations adding to the beauty of the localities, new clothes and meeting old chaps & relatives. But this is dedicated to the best part of Diwali, bursting crackers........really miss those days when we all friends(all guys) would gather together and hunt for the best combinations of crackers(obviously purchase them economically-- mind you we were being trained in money management & investment since a young age ;)). Those 3-4 days of Diwali were like only time to give headache to people officially.
The first day and that too morning time would be the competion who cracks the crackers first........after that a the main thing...........destroying a mud castle made with such great efforts during Vacs(the destructive mentality).
The next follow the same pattern every evening........still remember those goof ups and accidents while synchronizing to burst crackers at the same time :D.
Things have really changed a lot with more maturity(people might still laugh at this when reading) and things getting bored(rather people making it bore........especially MU). Still miss those days, just one wish to relive them once :)

The no 3

The last weekend was a real eyeopener in terms on various fronts. Got a real glimpse of how things(and notably people) can turn around in an instant.Really wanted to write about things which bothered me the entire weekend(including the preparation for term tests).While thinking about the same i found a real common thing

the entire weekend revolved around the number "three-3".
The Friday earlier to the weekend had to wait for 3hrs in vain for a friend of mine and getting to know that its not possible to meet in a sms chat for 3mins ,after that at home had to wrestle with PC to get it started it also took about 3hrs to get it done, then the next day......probably the most difficult TO STUDY PE for 3hrs(that too i didn't do sincerely). Then getting a call from (computer allergic) friend who had to struggle to get her gmail a/c restored that too after long and arduous 3hrs. Its always a three word(sumtyms 3 alphabet in 2day's sms lingo) which mends a heart or breaks one.Thinking much further a today's nuclear family consists of 3 individuals.
Talking about electronics, generally a semiconductor device is 3 terminal(BJT, etc), we generally use 33k pot or resistances(its a crap joke so ignore) and many a thnigs which i could have thought but quite late now so some quick facts about 3
 It might feel while reading that i'm exagerating the no.3 but after reading few things about it on wiki:
  • Counting to three is common in situations where a group of people wish to perform an action in sync: Now, on the count of three, everybody pull!  Assuming the counter is proceeding at a uniform rate, the first two counts are necessary to establish the rate, but then everyone can predict when three" will come based on "one" and "two"; this is likely why three is used instead of some other number.
  • In Vietnam, there is a superstition that considers it bad luck to take a photo with three people in it; it is professed that the person in the middle will die soon.
  • There is another superstition that it is unlucky to take a third light, that is, to be the third person to light a cigarette from the same match or lighter. This superstition is sometimes asserted to have originated among soldiers in the trenches of the First World War when a sniper might see the first light, take aim on the second and fire on the third.(NOTE: This is specially to all SN regulars :) ) )
  • The phrase "Third time's the charm" refers to the superstition that after two failures in any endeavor, a third attempt is more likely to succeed. This is also sometimes seen in reverse, as in "third man [to do something, presumably forbidden] gets caught".
  • Luck, especially bad luck, is often said to "come in threes".
Thanks for reading :) :) :)

Android Operating system

Android........android .....android man i've just fallen in love with this OS.Its become the buzzword these days. Many handset providers have launched a wide range of Smartphones which have Android as OS(Operating system). Be it the HTC-Google Nexus or Samsung's WAVE & GALAXY or Sony Erricson's Xperia, the sales of Android operated phones have increased to upto 15%(please checkout the quarter sales on the official sites), even if Nokia Symbian OS still rules the roost in terms of low end mobiles.
Basically its an operating system developed by Google GNU ( unix like operating systen developed by the GNU project) and Linux kernel(layman's terms the central component of computer operating system). Android has its applications running on JAVA programming language mostly Google developed libraries.google also has released "App inventor" for newbies.Android was developed by intially by Android Inc.(Later acquired by Google).
Being an Opensource,its really expanding in terms of application development and companies are trying to get Efficient yet affordable handsets in coming days. Hope the Androids hit the markets having prices less than about Rs.10000(height of hope!!!!) in few months....want to have one :) :)..................Recent Android operating system is the Android 2.2(Froyo) on Linux kernel and inQ4 another operating system 2.6 in this year......so "anandi ananda gade jikde tike chohikade" in case of Android development.
Its a real killer in terms of applications and functionality when combined with a great hardware....e.g a Qualcomm Snapdragon 1GHz processor in Nexus and also in terms of affordability compared to iPhones.
So look for a new Android near you, i'm sure it will charm you...............

No Words for you

While thinking about what to write for my next post,suddenly i was reminded of a story,not a story but in actual a play which i read a few days ago..........it was written by Thornton Wilder about Love and how to cure it. I couldn't stop wondering at the coincidence that it happened at the same time when things around me are more or less the same. Talking about the story,its about a young Cambridge Grad student Arthur(Note: This is set in the Victorian Era) who is madly in love with a ballet performer by the name Linda.........but as all the love stories have a twist in the tale there's ought to be one.Linda isn't interested in being in a relationship,so Arthur isn't quite keen on giving up on his attempts to let her know about her feelings and all that emotional tochan follows after that.........i couldn't get the link of the play,but you guys can read it. At the end,Arthur gets realizes that there's no point in really forcing a move,but to get into the sidelines. He at the end of the play tells Linda that(I don't remember the exact dialogues ),"Thanks for everything that you have been to me, i cant really force you to be in love with me but i'll be really happy for you..........its just that now if your happy then there's nothing i wish for....thanks for everything."
For this Linda replies,"Hey i haven't done anything for you, you've just wasted your time on such things........."
On this Arthur tries to explain her,"Linda if you think I've wasted my time on you then its totally wrong,when you'll really love someone you'll get to know what it feels.....i wont bother you again.....goodbye forever"
This really stirred a few emotions,this story was written in 1950's but still stands true.........still every one goes through the same again and again knowing the fate......just knowing one thing that's i didn't waste my time being in love.
I guess accepting what is possible rather than, running after a mirage is good on either part.As someone has said that, Do not cry about what has gone past you, be happy that it happened.
I would like to post a poem by a friend of mine who requested me to keep his name a secretso its for u buddy::::
First love all over again,
Memories that never wane,
And lately I find
You're on my mind,
and I am catching
the midnight train.

Christmas hearts are aflame,
Lights shine bright
O'er the plain.
I am travelling tonight
To re-live the delight
of first love over again.

Hold me my love in the rain,
We will shelter in lovers lane,
With no more sorrow
We will treasure tomorrow
Because I am here
on the midnight train.

Tschüess bis dann  :)
