IntenTrack 2008

Posted by Joel | Filed under General

It’s been a long time since I had logged in to my dashboard and made a new blog post on my blog. Well, had some spiders, cockroaches and some mess around my admin area. Got them cleaned up and here I am with an update on my blog since August 15th 2008 :P

Ok, sort of very busy with college and studies and also last week we in our college had a fest conducted. The so called fest was named “IntenTrack 2008 – If you miss it, it’s upto you“. What the hell in the world did they mean by this slogan! They had taken Rs. 200 from each and every student as fund and they display such arrogant slogan!!! Duck them!

Anyways, this fest was exclusively for the students of MCA and BCA. It was a 14 day event consisting of both technical and non-technical events in which I took part in Debate, IT Presentation, Web Designing and Debugging. And yesterday was the final day. Though we did enjoy the events, but I wasn’t that satisfied coz it was nothing when compared to Joseph’s :(

With so much of politics, partially and more preferences given to our seniors and super seniors, we (I and my partner) made it through by winning the 1st place in IT Presentation, competing with over 12 teams which included our seniors too. Thanks to those judges for making such a wise judgment and gave us a place…! We did work hard for this and I was confident about getting a place and I did get it :D Thank God, at least I won something. And now the worst part. Friends…yeah friends! They are now behind me for a treat… :-w I seriously hate this part!

Well since now everything is over (except for the treat :-L ) will have to get back to studies and I have my internals coming up by next week. It starts from September 8th and I freakin no nothing.. :-SS God alone should save me!

Ok, I better leave now. Cya people… :-h
P.S  To all my readers: Please don’t mind as I am not that active in passing/sharing my comments on your blog. Please do forgive me. If I do find some time, I would surely comment on your blog and hope I do get some time in updating my blog too.

Happy Independence Day

Posted by Joel | Filed under General

Happy Independence Day to one and all! It’s now been 61 years since India became an independent country. Time to celebrate… \:d/  \:d/

Now the interesting part! If you are a Times Of India newspaper subscriber then do check out the 4th and the 8th page. Have a clear look at the ads. Yediyurappa (surprisingly found him on wiki), the Chief Minister of Karnataka, (Ad) says that it is the 62nd year of independence on page 4 and 8. Is he an illiterate or something? :|

I have taken the shots of those ads. Check them out!

An update…finally!

Posted by Joel | Filed under Fun, General, Tag

First of all I’m sorry for not being active very much and posting regularly. As you know that my college has already begun and I am not finding any time to write a post or keep my blogs updated. (I am free only on weekends :( ) And also I’m sorry for not being very regular in adding my comments at your blog. Will try my best and visit your blog. Hope you don’t mind :)

Ok, now the next part is my pending tag. I was tagged by Vishesh and Hasit. Both of them have tagged me with the same tag. The tag is that I need to write some quirky things about me. I mean some things that I do but most of them don’t. In other words something very unique and different about me. So here they are:

  1. I have a habit of tearing out my nails with my thumb nail. No, I don’t bite them but I use my thumb nail to cut it. It sounds weird but it is true. I do that whenever I think very deeply or sometimes even while I am tensed…
  2. I sleep upside down. I mean, I sleep with my stomach facing the bed. If I don’t sleep that way then there is no way I can get sleep. I guess this is quite common but still wanted to mention it.
  3. I don’t like to listen to RAP. God knows who can understand what they actually blabber… :P and also I hate those Hip hop music…Sounds eek!
  4. I am very humorous at times when I shouldn’t be :D Ya, most of the time I crack jokes at times when there is something serious happened around :D I dunno what happens to me but it suddenly comes to my mind and I just say it. This happens mostly while I am among with friends. :D
  5. I am actually interested in photography. Yeah, I actually started liking this very recently. I like to capture pics around me and probably have huge collection of all my shots.. :) Something I really found it to be interesting…
  6. I hate Chemistry, Hindi and Kannada…! Chem is coz for those annoying little names and equations.. Hindi and Kannada…! I don’t like to study them as my subject. Writing and reading part sucks of mine..! I freakin take 5mins to finish one line. But I am fluent in speaking though… :)
  7. Ok, now comes the boasting part :P I like to be systematic at whatever I do. And also be neat in my work… And my friends always tell me that my dressing style is brilliant. That makes me wonder… :P

Well I guess those 7 were more than enough. I could have gone more….but thought it would bore you and you people would go to sleep. Ok, if you have already slept, wake up now…its over… :P

And what else? Yeah, I just wanted to share something interesting with you. I would like to share with you these couple of flash movies. Watch it and enjoy them.

Apple iPhone for 13k in India from Vodafone

Posted by Joel | Filed under General, Mobile

You all know that Vodafone would be selling the iPhone in India the next month. If you’re not aware of it then let me tell you. It’s been scheduled that the Apple iPhone would be launched by Vodafone on the 18th of August 2008 in India. Most of the iPhone lovers in India who are desperate to grab it, would get some relief finally!

As far as I know it has been priced 13k. I don’t know whether this is the exact price…but I guess it would range from in and around Rs. 13,000 for the 8GB model. (Worth enough)

Any further info regarding this will be updated here (if needed…)

Don’t mind

Posted by Joel | Filed under General

Ok here’s a small lesson that everybody (somebody) must learn. Just taking it as an example to explain what is the message I would like to convey.

Intro: There are three members in a family. The father, the mother and their son.

Scene 1: Once the mother took her son to the market to buy some vegetables. As she was the only costumer at the shop, the eyes of the vendor were on her. A couple of minutes later another costumer came by to the same shop. The man was diverted his attention by the second lady and he turned the other side. The mother who was collection some vegetables, slowly put some in her bag. The son standing next to her is observing everything what is going on. As soon as the man turned towards her she started to pick other vegetables and bought a few of them.

Later while they were returning home, the mother told to the son, “Look son, these things are all common here…So don’t mind it”. The boy never opened his mouth and they returned home.

Scene 2: The next day, the father with his son were riding on the bike back to home from somewhere. A cop caught him as he had no helmet and license which he had forgotten them. The cop demanded 700 bucks as fine. But the father hesitatingly gave 150 bucks as bribe and were back on their way home. He stopped a little further and told his son, “Look son, these things are all common here…So don’t mind it”. The boy was obviously shut and went back home.

Scene3: The boy was caught in his school as he was copying answers from his neighbor. He was taken to the principal and the parents were called. The parents who were fully fumed came to the school and gave blastings for 5 mins. The boy was cool. Later after the blastings he told, “Mom and Dad, stay cool. You need not have to worry about it. These things are all common here. Don’t mind it”. Now, the parents were shut!

The thought of the boy was all seeded by the parents into his brain. Ultimately they are the ones who are responsible for his arrogant behavior. This is a lesson to all (most probably for elders). Children are innocent. They don’t understand what they have to do. They learn the things that they see around them. To make them go in a right path the parents/elders have to be sensible. They must stop fighting, cheating, speaking slang words in front of their children (this doesn’t mean that you fight or cheat when your child isn’t around you :| ). See that you avoid such things and take your children in a right path.

This instance above was actually told by someone to me and also suggested me to write this up on my blog. I found it to be interesting and something thoughtful and hence wrote it… :)

Early to bed and early to rise, makes a man healthy, wealthy, and wise

I guess I will have to follow this from now on. College would be starting from tomorrow College has started from today and will have absolutely no time to sit and stare at my lady in white. Wake up early in the morn, get ready and off to college. Come back home, hog something and straight to my room for my studies and later to sleep. This would be my daily routine from tomorrow. I really hate this… :((

Here is a small chart I have prepared where you can see that I have no time at all to spend some time with my lady in white :((

early to bed early to rise makes a man healthy wealthy and wise...

And here’s a small message to my readers.

To,

I would be offline for quite a few while but I would see that I would read your blog posts on every weekend and share my opinion…! And please don’t forget me… :-s

I would also see that I may post something on my blog every weekend. (not a promise) So that’s it and before I leave I would like to each and every one of you reading this, especially my readers. :)

Will miss ya people..!

Time to leave :-t … Adios amigo… :-h

Regards,

Joel
