31 December 2010 Small Entry

Last day of the year. Last day of this vacation at home. Going back to college. Will be reaching on Sunday.
I travelled a lot this year.Attended a couple of marriages; met so many people; old friends and relations; Made some new ones too.
The year taught me a lot of things. Especially my friends. They became even more special than earlier. They unknowingly taught me a lot of things. They are staying in places distant from me. I seldom hear from them. But whenever I talked to them I heard things which inspired me to do something good and better. Another important one was Naruto (why??? may be someday I will type the reasons in this very blog) It was as if this year was teaching me how to live :D
Sometimes it was tough. I used to have so much of dilemma in mind. But towards the end of the year things started becoming clear. It all looks like a Trap of Time. Every one comes out of such trap, successful, only thing that differs is When people fall into it and When they come out of it. It feels good now on this last day of 2010 when I realise that I have clear thoughts in my mind. I think I now know myself better. Things like what I want to do in my life etc.

 There are still a lot of questions unanswered but there is also this self-confidence that I can find the solutions myself in my own way :P
I hope that you too had a wonderful, joyous and successful year
Wishing you a very happy and prosperous New Year ahead

27 December 2010

Last time it was just missing a train, little delay in reaching destination etc. But this time it crossed almost all limits. What fate!!! I had to pay 17456/-(only!!!) for a laptop repair which is still under warranty. I left college on 16th by bus to Hyderabad. Packed up everything cleaned my room. Locked my room . Handed over various things to different people, ate for the last time in 2010 in the Mega Mess and finally boarded that bus, that KSRTC airavat bus.
I had packed my laptop in its bag and had kept it inside a bag full of clothes. Actually it was my mistake. I should have kept the laptop with me. But the laptop bag was torn a little. I was worried that I will damage it even further and I might even end up dropping the laptop so I kept it inside a bag full of clothes. :( I even told the guy who kept the luggage inside... keep it safe there is laptop inside... dont know what happened. He kept it safely in front of my eyes and removed it in front of my eyes. I traveled along with the bag in a local bus in Hyderabad. It was a one hour journey from the bus stand to Chandanagar. Now i am getting a doubt if something happened in that one hour :(. Whatever it is ... my laptop LCD screen broke.

I think someone is putting all curses on me. Whoever it is please tell me the reason. Lets settle things by talk (and not by break :P). Huh... I went to Maha Electronics in Somajiguda showed them my laptop. They said I will have to pay as it is a physical damage :( . Part came to Vijayawada (as I had requested since it is near to my home) and I went and got my laptop screen replaced yesterday.
The only happy thing after all this is that I am looking into my laptop screen (working) now
:D

Lot of things might have happened in wrong way but 2010 was another great year and carries some really awesome memories for me to sit back, recollect and smile. Thanks to all (mighty, universe and relations)

Hope that 2010 was a happy and enjoyable year for all. Wishing you all a very happy, prosperous and cheerful new year 2011.

Yours Lovingly

16 Dec Lots to say

Its been long since I have typed in something into my blog. As I see the last one was on November 19th which said about the completion of my fifth semester at NITK. Most of the grades are already out and after a lot of "kirkiri" with the grades in energy engineering and finally a ten in a maths course I seem to have kept my cgpa safe above 8. There was even a small confusion that I had got an Unsatisfactory grade in a course which I audited. But later I came to know that the U stood for aUdit and not unsatisfactory. Thank God.. great relief. I actually started laughing at a facebook application which had shown a result stating I will have zero flunks in my engineering exams.

There is actually a lot to say. Whenever I encountered something interesting or thought provoking I had thought of putting it up as an article in my blog. However those interesting and thought provoking things kept me from sitting in front of my Laptop and typing one article for my blog. Finally today I made it here. Actually I am packing up to go home. Yes !!! Holiday Time. Sixth Sem started off with those usual course registrations with a difference however due to the large number of electives to chose from. I don't know why it always happens to me. Last semester my top priority course (Hydraulic and Pneumatic Controls) was removed due to less number of students and it happened again this semester for a course( Synthesis of Mechanisms) that I so badly wanted. I finally ended up taking only three courses (HPC, Automobile Engineering and Linear Algebra). Well this sem since I am comparatively free I think I will be able to work more for SOLVE.

Just after the registrations got over I had been to Chennai to attend a wedding reception and when I started back I witnessed FATE :P . My return journey train was at 1130 from Chennai Central and I caught a local train at Velachery metro railway station at around 1015 and the time was sufficient to get down at Park Town, walk slowly to central and board my train. But as I said something different was written in my fate that day. I boarded the local and got a window seat and started thinking of all kinds of different things, work, friends, relations and so on. There was a nice breeze blowing. My tummy was full and my laptop bag acted as a pillow. I DOZED OFF. I got up suddenly to look out at an almost empty platform Chennai Beach station staring back at me. I looked at the time. 1136. I knew I had missed it. Still I prayed to God, started making some deals about coming to temple, but he was not at all interested. I boarded another local to Park, rushed to the Central and as expected it had left long ago. I had booked my ticket for that train just reach early to college next day morning so that I could attend the first class of the semester. Aftermath of this consists of me searching for all possible ways to get back to college in time to go to class. Bought a ticket to Bangalore, Boarded Hubli express and booked one ticket in KSRTC airavat bus to college and expected it to reach college by 0700 (as the time mentioned in the details was 0630). However my FATE EFFECT was not over yet. The bus that I got into had a breakdown some time at around 0400 ( I remember because I was asked to get into another bus, Rajhamsa this time (unfair naa), and I had asked the time) and this second bus dropped me at college at around 1100 :( .Missed the first two classes which were the only two classes on that day which had something to listen. FATE MAXX.. Can't Help.There were a lot of other silly crazy things happening but then I just avoided them as I have eaten your brain enough
Today there ain't any classes and our holidays start from tomorrow. I am leaving for home by a KSRTC airavat bus at 1620. I stopped thinking about that missed train and delayed bus. All I hope is today's bus; I catch it properly in time and it takes me home as fast as possible.

19 November Sem V

It surprises me but is true. Today was the last day for classes of fifth semester in B.Tech. I was a little busy during the last one week with last moment submission of assignments, a test and my mini project (group) in Mechatronics. But today morning as everything was done and I was coming back after presenting our team's mini project (Haptic Arm) I felt it. It is almost over. My fifth semester in Mechanical Engineering is going to get over after the exams which are coming up (starting on Monday).
In these five months of time away from home I learnt few new things and gained some good experience, turned some acquaintances into really good friends, learnt a lot about myself and my interests thanks to a few dilemma which I had just before the beginning of the semester and, something worth remembering, boarded a flight for the first time (to go to my cousin's marriage).

Vivek and me worked like probably never before to run our remote controlled car at Shaastra 2010 ( sad that it didn't work out properly at the end, but yeah we learnt a lot of things) and again at Engineer 2010 ( this time there was a boat too but both failed before the competition itself).
The semester was full of presentations and seminars other than the regular assignments and tests. I gained a few new names (other than Rules Ramanujan from my first year and Audi from my second year) like Saare Auditya (pronounce as Audit Ya) Raman for taking two elective courses extra, and the name Kuchi or Kuchi Baatla also gained usage thanks to the wing in which I stay with my fellow Mechies (my classmates). Actually it is Kuchibhatla, my surname, and they made it Kuchi baatla :D Can't help it :P :P :P Of course the enjoyment with the gult gang was always there...
well i don't know how to conclude this one ...the clock keeps ticking... and this sem has also come to an end... i can say just one thing ... thanks to all and the almighty I had another very enjoyable and memorable semester at NITK.

Wishing all NITKians Best of luck for the coming sem exams

Cheers
Aditya

13 November Dilemma?

I wonder if it happens only with me or with every one in this world. Just today morning at around 4 am chatting with an old friend I was feeling soooo happy... I thought that joyous mood will be enough for me to finish my exams which are coming up and then by the end of the day it is all changed. I am feeling so depressed that too without the knowledge of the reason. Till afternoon I was perfectly fine and ... and... and .. I don't know what happened and I start feeling all negative things. I had a long chat till now with another friend of mine who was trying in all possible ways to cheer me up but then I don't see anything working because I am still in that same mood.Am I feeling home sick. I don't know why I suddenly started feeling so lonely from today evening. Is it wrong to expect a call from at least .. at the very least one friend who hasn't talked to me for a long time... any one friend. Does this world make people so busy that they can't make time once in month to call a friend or a relative.Yeah may be I demand too much.Sorry guys. May be I still don't understand the definition of Life and Living and I thought I have grown up. LoL :P . I think I should go back to kindergarten .. may be after another 18 years I will be able to realise what I am supposed to do now. Wait a sec . what am I talking. Oh my God!!! I started bulbing* again. Something actually has happened to me. Something is seriously wrong with me. I am being told that I am thinking too much. Is it just that much. But how do I stop thinking when something wrong is going on. Leave things to happen the way they are happening, even if wrong... just get your thing out of it.. don't even bother what happens afterward.Is it the way one should live... Okay now I am in such a huge dilemma that not even the words are coming out properly. Sorry guys I think it is better I put a stop here else I may keep blabbering some non sense.
Good Night
Aditya
P.S. Sorry for the trouble of making you read this if you didn't like it 
* Bulbing is a word in NITK lingo and means.. confused and doing random things with no results or use

5 November Happy Diwali

It has been a month since I wrote a blog entry. You can say I was a little busy because of a couple of assignments, Engineer (my college's technical festival) and few other things. Many a times during this month I used to get depressed about a lot of things. At times I felt I should write those things as a blog entry but wasn't really sure about it so I just dropped the idea at that time and I didn't come out of the mood I didn't use to get any good topic to write on. Well just in case you grew curious about what those topics were let me tell you they were all lame and lousy topics about my understanding of the people, the system, and myself. After sometime I came out of all that but I keep visiting those dilemma once in a while (most recent was yesterday night :D). By the way, in spite of going through these things (keep my assignments and tests apart) I watched completely the fillers between the stories of Naruto and Naruto Shippuden, watched code geass season one and recently watched the episodes from Jiraiya fighting with Pain till the talk between naruto and nagato after their fight in Naruto Shippuden. May be some time in future I will post something on how much I get influenced (excited and inspired) because of this anime.

Keeping all those things apart I wish all of you a very Happy and Safe Deepavali. As I type I recollect the way my teachers used to tell me about this festival when I was in my primary school... " Deepavali ka arth hai deepon ki aavali yaani pankthi jab Sri Ram yudh mein Raavan ka samhar karke Sita maatha aur bhai Laxman ke saath ayodhya laute the thab ayodhyavaasiyo ne is khushi mein deepon se apne gharon ko sajaaya tha......" ["Deepavali means an array of lights and was first celebrated by people in Ayodhya to express their joy on the return of Lord Rama along with wife Sita and Brother Laxman after defeating Raavan in a battle"]. I also remember how I used to come across an essay on Deepavali umpteen number times.. there was one even in Sanskrit... Those days were great. Deepavali not just brings in happiness and joy with all those crackers, new dresses and sweets but also brings back lots of sweet memories..... isn't it ............
For some random reason if you are not able to burn crackers tonight then lie down on the rooftop just like me look at the glow in the sky and go back into your sweet sweet memories
Let this Diwali also be as good as those you have celebrated earlier
Once again wishing you all a happy diwali....

3rd October It's All Part of the Game dude

Guess what. I am writing this entry of my blog in Chennai Central Railway Station. Do you think I am jobless. Actually I am. I have nothing else to do in the coming twenty minutes expecting may be something like talking to Vivek who is sitting next to me (with almost the same fate as mine). 
Good if you have observed by now that my day has gone totally against me. If you have not felt it in my words then let me tell you. MY DAY HAS GONE TOTALLY AGAINST ME. 
First trouble came with our so called battle tank's steering (in Shaastra 2010, the techfest of IIT-M) not functioning properly (which was actually working perfectly fine yesterday night).Fate didn't leave me at that. I got delayed in coming to the railway station and missed my train (of course Vivek also missed his train). I thought of catching the train in Katpadi. But then I dropped my idea completely when the taxi wala talked something in thousands.
Whatever it is both of us are sitting in the railway station now. After getting almost disqualified in the final round of Fire N ICE, after telling a girl acquaintance that she looks beautiful, after getting delayed because of random things, after missing my train to go to college, after missing a friend soooooooooooo much and feeling sad that I wasn't able to meet her even when I was in near vicinity of her residence for four long days... though i feel that i should leave everything... should go home and lock myself up inside.....random thoughts coming into my mind... I can do just one thing......
Go to the reservation counter.. get a general ticket to mangalore... go back to college by next train... and continue my impractical engineering.
So bye for now I am off to the reservation counter.


Cheers or no cheers

Missing someone... badly

3rd October My Friend's Advice

I don’t like the transportation methods used nowadays I hate it when I have to wait for trains to pass at railway crossing and also the way we miss trains. The journeys take too long to complete. To get to one place from another we take a lot of time what if we have a faster way to travel from one place to another we can solve many problems regarding time management. I am an engineer or more likely a would be engineer so I think every engineer has a responsibility to think about the things I said earlier or maybe we all should work together I mean not only engineers but the countries should help one another to develop their technology. So an undeveloped country will develop its technology by going behind a developed country. If every country wants to improve its technology then every country would long for a more developed country then there will be a contradiction because the most developed country would long for a much developed country than itself which is not possible because that country is the most developed so for this contradiction we should find a solution the solution is quite simple that is if there is suppose an organization or a controller of all the countries is established then this organization would see through that all the countries are equally developed then there will be no contradiction cause this organization will assign an undeveloped country to a developed country then all the countries will be equally developed hence there will be homogeneous technology development

For writing all this I wasted 20 minutes instead of doing this I could have thought of some new method of transportation instead of that we lead ourselves to blaming other countries and wasted our time this is what all philosophers do so do not be a philosopher be an engineer and change the world that now we live in

                                                                     -An advice by your friend and fellow engineer

16 September Yappy Yappy Barthadei

Had a wonderful day with all people wishing me on my birthday. Great fun which started with a grand GPL from my "wing-mates" at 12 and a yummy cake cutting. So many phone calls (may be the highest I received ever) and wishes most of them from people whom I hadn't even expected. Everybody ask me what are your plans for the day and I reply to them "seminar at 8 exam at 11 and assignment submission at 4".. hahahaha... fifth sem on its peak with with my two audit courses and mid-sems from monday.... but I forgot all those things today...with all my friends calling up to wish me.. many of those with whom I wasn't in touch for a very long time. nearly 50 odd notifications filling up my gmail inbox saying "facebook notification : someone posted on your wall".  Well that's a huge number for me... great thanks to all NITKians...and thanks to you all my old pure gold friends. thanks for all your wishes. thanks for making my day wonderful and memorable.

P.S. If i am not wrong I will be getting a gult special GPL before it strikes 12... U C you feel so happy and joyous that it never pains :P

9 September Friends...

I wasn't with them for a long time. Never used to talk so much with them. Randomly say a hi or a hello when we see each other and then just move on. Neither they nor me had any idea that we guys will gel together so much. May be it is true that time and situation brings people together. Whatever be the reasons we stay nearby nowadays. We all have so much fun.

I keep bulbing many times when they are talking. I may not actually be their kind of guy. Our thoughts also may not match so much. At times I express myself in one way and they understand it a little differently. Sometimes they may not even make an effort to understand me thinking that I am talking something lame. But still I like their company. They are all so nice guys, chilled out, cool yet some high-level PROs, one field or the other, all of them... chotu ( or bhavandar, as what he is called by some others) ... servo... sup... srk... dakota... gspot... nd...vsingh bayaan... dishwash... always united...helping each other... let it be for some assignment or for surpassing their own levels. Thanks to God and my fate that I got to stay with these guys and gather a lot of happy memories for my future. That is all for now... Will write some more later. but for now we all need to get ready for dishwash's birthday blast :P...Many happy returns of the day dude...

Cheers

7 September Sorry I can't help you.

Many times in life people face situations where they have two options. I am not talking about those painful situations where you have to choose one option to lose another. I am talking of those situations where you are the Boss. You don't lose anything (may be except some things like time) by choosing any of those options. May be one path satisfies just your requirement and taking the other path helps a few others also at the cost of a little of your time, money and strength (or energy whatever you may call it as).

If you think of taking the second path then I appreciate your thought. If not then I would suggest you to rethink. Sometimes it is good to think of others. Actually sometimes you feel better even when you are losing something but you see the smiles of those thankful faces whom you just helped. I am not asking you to forget yourself but I am asking you to remember about the needy at least once in some time.

We see lot of people starting business, settling down in foreign nations, earning lots of money one way or the other. Can't those people spend some of their time and money on those who need support to live a happy life. Why should a child walk barefoot to a construction site to lift bricks when another child of the same age is going to school probably to become the project manager of many such constructions in coming future. I don't call for international syllabus or air conditioned classrooms. I just ask for the development of the condition of the municipal school. I don't say triple bedroom flat for everyone. I just want everyone to get some shelter which they can keep clean to stay healthy and safe. 

If you like the idea then do something when you get a chance.If you want to argue with me may be I can spend sometime convincing you even after that if you think I am demanding too much then sorry I can't help you.

3 August A Diary Entry (purely imaginary yet real)

It was a wonderful moment when I realised that I am in love. It was such a nice feeling that I had started liking someone with my life. I had even started thinking about my lovely life with my sweetheart. I wasn't living in this world from then on. It was a dreamland, a wonderful place where there was me my sweetheart and lots n lots of happiness. I hadn't expressed myself in front of her, but I was pretty sure that she also had the feelings towards me. We just knew somehow that each one of us couldn't live without the other. Our bonds of love were based on trust, something without which there is no love.

But hold a second. Did I just say TRUST. I wonder what it is that my parents have on me. My parents also love me. They believe in me and only hence could send me this far to study. My father toils hard day and night so that I can sleep comfortably here in my hostel.What I am doing.. Is it right? Am I not breaking the trust they have on me? Am I not supposed to think of them before thinking about anyone else (at least now)? I think I shouldn't tell her now. Sorry sweetheart... you will have to wait. I am bound to keep my feelings to myself. I hope you can understand. If you love me I know you will.

Love

13 July It was actually simple. It was me who didn't see

I had a Transcend JFV10 4GB pen drive which I got free with my first Compaq Laptop. My father uses the laptop and I use the pen drive I was very fond of the drive. Its design its white color.. I liked it very much. Accidentally it was lost when I gave it to my seniors when they needed it last semester.My seniors gave me a similar pen drive (may be they felt responsible for the lose of my pen drive, such nice seniors ain't they!!! ). The second looked the same as the first, except that it had a problem. It had some stupid file in it which couldn't be deleted and I couldn't format the drive. No file could be copied on to it. So though I had a drive I couldn't use it.

I tried to repair it. Don't remember how many softwares I used...Number of google searched... threads in different forums...random softwares from the internet to remove write protection, recover pendrive... the list goes on and on.  Six months or may be even more.... no results.. I recently gave it to a batch-mate here... he also seems to have tried hard to repair the drive... but no luck...He was saying we need to do some "delete volume" thing like how we do before formatting the OS on desktops and laptops.
Then finally today (which seems to be lucky for me) I gave it a try. I went to the transcend company's website and checked for a recovery software ...gave the details of my drive...installed a software..ran it... and clicked on a few OKs ...i think just 2 or 3... and tadaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah.... it was done.Didn't take even a minute That stupid file was removed... my pen drive formatted and on opening it looked as good as new (hahaha it will look like that after every format obviously). I remember trying the same software at home also but it didn't work at that time.... but as I said may be this day is lucky for me.
Soooooooooo what I would suggest to all those who have problems with their pen drives is to go to website of their respective company and try something like that online recovery tool first and then if it doesn't work then I can say only one thing ... Good luck
Thank You God
Thank You Transcend  ;-)

7th July an eMail I got (a forward worth reading and remembering too)

I have been a little busy during the last week. Couldn't write anything for the blog. Today I read an e-mail and felt it is worth sharing here. Read on.. it is very nice ... I am sure you'll like it 


Written By Regina Brett, 90 years old, of The Plain Dealer, Cleveland, Ohio.

"To celebrate growing older, I once wrote the 45 lessons life taught me. It is the most-requested column I've ever written.

My odometer rolled over to 90 in August, so here is the column once more:

1. Life isn't fair, but it's still good.

2. When in doubt, just take the next small step.

3. Life is too short to waste time hating anyone.

4. Your job won't take care of you when you are sick. Your friends and parents will. Stay in touch.

5. Pay off your credit cards every month.

6. You don't have to win
every argument. Agree to disagree.

7. Cry with someone. It's more healing than crying alone.

8. It's OK to get angry with God. He can take it.

9. Save for retirement starting with your first paycheck.

10. When it comes to chocolate, resistance is futile.

11. Make peace with your past so it won't screw up the present.

12. It's OK to let your children see you cry.

13. Don't compare your life to others. You have no idea what their journey is all about.

14. If a relationship has to be a secret, you shouldn't be in it.

15. Everything can change in the blink of an eye. But don't worry; God never blinks.

16.. Take a deep breath. It calms the mind.

17. Get rid of anything that isn't useful, beautiful or joyful.

18. Whatever doesn't kill you really does make you stronger.

19. It's never too late to have a happy childhood. But the second one is up to you and no one
else

20. When it comes to going after what you love in life, don't take no for an answer.

21. Burn the candles, use the nice sheets, wear the fancy lingerie. Don't save it for a special occasion. Today is special.

22. Over prepare, then go with the flow.

23. Be eccentric now. Don't wait for old age to wear purple.

24. The most important sex organ is the brain.

25. No one is in charge of your happiness but you.

26. Frame every so-called disaster with these words 'In five years, will this matter?'

27. Always choose life.

28. Forgive everyone everything.

29. What other people think of you is none of your business.

30. Time heals almost everything. Give time time.

31. However good or bad a situation is, it will change.

32. Don't take yourself so seriously. No one else does.

33. Believe in miracles.

34. God loves you because of who God is, not because of
anything you did or didn't do.

35. Don't audit life. Show up and make the most of it now.

36. Growing old beats the alternative -- dying young.

37. Your children get only one childhood.

38. All that truly matters in the end is that you loved.

39. Get outside every day. Miracles are waiting everywhere.

40. If we all threw our problems in a pile and saw everyone else's, we'd grab ours back.

41. Envy is a waste of time. You already have all you need.

42. The best is yet to come...

43. No matter how you feel, get up, dress up and show up.

44. Yield.

45. Life isn't tied with a bow, but it's still a gift."

1st July Darling... I would love to come here with u once

It so happened that I went to the railway station of Surathkal the other day. I am going to Shirdi in this month with my parents for the Darshan of Lord Sai Baba. I told my father that I would get my tickets myself and so for that I (of course due to my laziness :D ) went to surathkal instead of Mangalore railway station. 

It had drizzled till then and though it was just 2 o'clock in the afternoon it was cold. I got down at the usual market stop of surathkal below the fly over (which is under construction for the past two years :D and I have no idea how long it will take. Actually I don't even know which places it connects). I had checked out the google maps to figure out the route to which I had to take to reach the Railway Station.

I stopped by at a bakery and bought myself two cream rolls and a 7up can (as usual ... lose control on seeing a bakery :D ), confirmed from the keeper of the bakery that the station is at a walkable distance and moved ahead. He had told me that a board showing the direction of the Station would be visible. I finally located it (by that time I had already finished the two cream rolls :P ) and walked in the direction it showed.It was as if I was walking into some colony. I was wondering how there could be a railway station in a place like that. I kept walking and as I reached to what appeared to be the end of the street I saw it " The Surathkal Railway Station". An old building which on first look appeared as if it was the place where postal luggages etc are kept in the railway station. But then I had read the name on the wall which clarified my doubt. It reminded me of railway station of the place Akaltara (in Chattisgarh) where we used to stay during my childhood.

I don't know why but I like places such as these. Silent. Surrounded by nature yet not away from civilization. To add to all that was the pleasant climate. Moreover I like small railway stations very much. Not very crowded. Few trains come as if they have come from a long way just to come and see if everything in the village is going on fine. Many a times these trains carry with them hope and confidence of the village too. But may be I am too young to explain things like that. We leave it for future :D

25 June NetBeans

Today morning I came online signed into my blog and just signed because I had nothing which I wanted to write at that time.Now it is time I go to sleep and as I was packing up I was recollecting what I have been doing for some time and BINGO I found my today's blog content. Java and NetBeans.
I was trying (not very seriously) to learn Adobe Flash for the past two days and today I just changed my mind and decided to try something different. I always had Java in my mind for my work and finally today probably the "Muhurtham" (can be called as Sacred Timing :D I don't know the correct translation) was good...I took out a DVD in which I had a few ebooks on Java and picked probably simplest one book "learn Java in 21 days" read the content of Day 1 and was feeling good that I finally started it. The book said that there are a few things to be downloaded. I went to the Java website referred a few things and started the download of a JDK (Java Development Kernel) with NetBeans 6.9 and after the installation I found it was awesome... I am referring to the GUI of the IDE... I read a getting started with GUI article in the NetBeans website and could simultaneously design an application for adding numbers. This may appear childish to the "Pro"s of Programming but for me ... it feels great.
Hope I will be able to work explore and learn more about Java and NetBeans tomorrow. If you are interested in programming and like designing applications then I suggest you should definitely try Java. It is simple, it is useful and (the best part) it is free.That's all for now.
Have Fun

23 June Its not my fault if I fell in Love

I had a feeling, when I was writing my previous entry, that I wouldn't be able to write blog for sometime and same thing happened...Its raining here in surathkal as usual. You know what I think it is not the fault of the person who is here in surathkal if he/she falls in Love with someone. The atmosphere is so romantic that anybody will just remember the one's close to him/her and who knows 'kab pyaar ho jaye'... lol...may be a little filmy to say but it really feels to be like that (atleast for me). So for my safety I should clearly state that it is not my fault if I just slide or land or fall in love :D with someone.... hahaha
As I type I am listening to the Naruto theme song, which obviously is awesome. If you get a chance do watch the first 10 episodes of Naruto and I am sure you won't stop until you have watched all of them. Hope all UG students are enjoying your holidays.
Have Fun.
Take Care

21 June Anime

Couldn't make time to blog yesterday night. Was just watching naruto :) I like cartoons very much especially when they have a story. Dragonball Z, Full Metal Alchemist, Deathnote and of course Naruto. I never thought I would like naruto sooo much.No doubt it is the number one anime being watched. Sometimes I feel animes, more than any other thing, inspire us to work hard and be good.

I see some great similarities between these anime. It might just be a coincidence but it so happens that there will always be two characters both of which are given equal importance and one of them plays a negative role for sometime. I am talking about pairs like naruto and sasuke from naruto , goku and vegeta from dragonballz, tyson and kai from beyblade. and all these stories say that they workhard to improve their skills and all is just about one thing ... to become the best. let it be number one beyblader or greatest fighter/ saiyan or the best ninja in the world. Of course the story is totally different from one another but still u can see some anomalies. Whatever it may be they are too good and definitely worth watching.
Have Fun.

20 June Ullasamga Uthsahamga

Ullasamga Uthsahamga is a tollywood movie which was released in the year 2008 starring. It is the debut movie for both actor Yasho Sagar and actress Sneha Ullal (yes the same sneha ullal whom people say "looks very much like aishwarya roy). I had heard from many that it is a very nice movie... but since I was not very familiar with the cast I dint watch it earlier.Found (intentionally) some time for watching the movie and I tell you saroja it is a movie worth watching saroja.

Two friends balaji and dhanalakshmi are separated in their childhood. Dhanalakshmi's parents die in her childhood itself and her father writes a property of 50 crores in her name and 50 lakhs in her step mother's name just like every other story. Her step mother tries to get her married to some guy and in order to escape she runs away from home.How she meets aravind in the city, how he helps her and what happens after they finally find balaji is the total movie. Though the plot is very simple and expectable with very low suspense the comedy is superb and makes the movie worth watching.
Many of my non-telugu friends tell me that they like watching telugu movies provided they have subtitles. Let me see if I can get subs for this movie...Just finished watching the movie and I saw internet was active.. so thought of making an entry in my blog.... will continue later

19 June 2010

I am not a very good writer. But this isn't any creative writing competition. So I thought I should also start writing a blog where I could write frankly about anything and everything and people (at least few) can enjoy reading.
I could have tried writing to some newspaper and all but sorry those people may not allow any kind of sensible nonsense unlike here where I can just keep typing blah blah blah and nobody would really care.

For new comers to this blog... Hai this is aditya (Sai Aditya Raman... many people recognise me in many different ways) doing BTech in Mechanical Engineering at NIT karnataka Surathkal. Eventually you will know more about me.



Great weather here at Surathkal... raining most of the time... very romantic of course... semester holidays till july 25th and I am sitting here in my college in front of my laptop.. the time is 10.38 pm

Sorry thought of typing in a lot more but i think i have to leave for now as I am signing out. will be back tomorrow for sure
Good Night have fun

Cheers
