Small chapters from my life, lessons learned and random thoughts.
Enough! The huge defeat of the no. 1 Cricket test team at the hands of the English side was enough humiliation for the players already. But think about it, the Indian team lost the match because they didn’t have the will to win? True that the Brits had a seemingly more fierce hunger for a […]
Sometimes watching a movie, a TV series, or reading a book can be so inspiring as to spontaneously start a chain reaction of beautiful thoughts in mind. I just happened to watch such an inspiring episode of a science documentary called Into the Universe, presented by Stephen Hawking on the Discovery Channel. The episode titled […]
Finally the Apple App Store has crossed the outrageous figure of 10 billion app downloads. Well, with the increasing adoption of Apple devices (iPhone, iPod Touch, iPad), one would have seen this coming. The 10 billion figure can be a little misleading as it probably includes app update downloads and app re-downloads which contribute to […]
Aah… another weekend, another two blissful days of playing PC games, peacefully. An added bonus this weekend has to offer are the two movies I’ll be going out for. First one, which is going to be today (company-sponsored), is the critically acclaimed, short-&-sweet flick Dhobi Ghat. It is one of the serious-type drama films one […]

At least that is what the situation is like […]
Now that I am free from all the MBA entrance tests I was preparing for, I am thinking a lot. Thinking of watching more movies per week, playing more games & reading more novels per day, and wasting more time per hour. Apart from that, I am working on a plan (read strategy) to get […]
At times, friends keep asking me about updates from the Granular Project. As it’s been going since a few months, I am being kept very busy due to the office work schedule and some other stuff (CAT prep). But as soon as the exams are over (a matter of 2 more months), I would be […]
So, what’s keeping me busy these days? It’s office work, of course. Working on quite a challenging and bigger project has its side-effects as well (working till late and missing daily fruit juice doses in my case). Other than that, I am enjoying the work as it has to do with web development, my area […]
Saw this today as “Quote of the day” on my office’s notice board. The best way to succeed in life is to act on the advice we give to others. – Anonymous That’s 100% right, Mr. Anonymous. Very well said. So, that was about the quote. I recently got an Internet connection at my place, […]
