Hello there! My trip was successful and I enjoyed myselves a lot! I am yet to post my pics over the internet. I was interested just to post a pic and inform that I am back. Huh? What else? I am pretty tired. Above is a pic of water droplets over a small plant in Dubarak Forests... Shall keep this space updated.

off to blr!

I am going on an industrial visit to Bangalore,Mysore and Coorg for four days! I shall be making the last post for this month on Monday.
I am saddened by the fact that I have made only 14 posts this month. But I have taken it as a responsibility to keep this blog space alive!


Cheers,

Garden visit

I happen to visit my garden three or four days back just to capture some of the pics to check my camera batteries. Test batteries? I had to do so since my dad struck the panic bells telling me that those which I bought were local ones and they may or may not work! I had to charge it for an over night and test them to ensure that they work. I took 14 to 15 pics with it. By God's grace it did. I am going on a 4 day long trip tonight. Hope I don't face any technical hitches with this cam.
Coming to the pics that have been uploaded, my mom is a great gardener. So are my bro and dad. I am the only creature who isn't really interested. I was surprised by the fact that my people preserve a place which is too photogenic. Wish I cultivate an interest soon!

Potter mania reinvented






I happened to read this in one of India's leading daily newspaper. It was regarding the release of deathly hallows.... I was quite shocked to see the craze for the book in my city too. Good! Coimbatore seems to be adopting westernisation. Does all these fun mean westernisation?

I meant the other way.. Usually Coimbatore is a conservative society and step of introducing a western thought would land you in total failure. I was quite shocked to read about this particular book shop over the news papers. I made it a point to visit this place and take a pic for myself. I was so happy that I uploaded them immediately and I wanted to write a post on it too.


I have got another good news too..... My book arrived this evening through mail. I have kept it safely and I shall be patient until I finish half blood prince.

Results are out

I was fast asleep in the noon after having a sunptuous meal along with a delicious mango from AP(actually bought it from a local shop). I received 10 calls which kept disturbing all through my deep sleep. I was shocked to see 10 missed calls. Later, I checked 15 messages in my inbox. All had the same matter. What was that?

I re-checked my eyes several times to ensure that the results were out. OMG! It is true. A friend of mine called me and told that the juniors had seen theirs a long time back. My damn internet connection wasn't working. It took several minutes for the page to get loaded up. I was almost fed up. Finally I entered my number over the site. My pulse ran high through those few minutes since I typed.

The page displayed "B.E. Mechatronics Engineering" and never turned up and I managed to keep my cool only after seeing a P beside all subjects over the right hand side of the web page. I was quite happy about that and I informed my parents that the results were out and that I managed to pass the exams.

They were quite shocked and they asked me why didn't I tell them previously. I said that I didn't want to panic them this time(Usually I create a hype about the publishing of results!!!). The overall turn over of the class results went low this time! The toppers were pulled out and for no reasons, few friends of mine were not able to make it. I believe it is a matter which would be fired in the revaluation.

There were many happy incidents and the shocking fact is that the results were out without a hype. Usually the university sends a panic wave for 15 days and then releases the results.

I wish my people aren't complacent about the exams this time.

Love,
Sai

The D-Day for Deathly Hallows?

I am getting used to reading Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince for the past three days. I wanted to finish this book before deathly hallow arrives.(I happen to purchase one for 630 bucks... cool na?)
What did this potter mania bring among the student community? I feel that the craze for the books have brought good reading habit among the kids. I was watching a kid talking to a reporter the television replying to a question whether she would read the last chapter first and the kid replied that " I want the first to read first and the last to be read last". I was shocked by this comment. But people are going mad which makes them finish 600 pages in a matter of few hours!!!!
Well! here comes another potter fan who does not mind being slow to come to know what happens to Harry Potter eventually.

I have a question lingering in my mind.. Do people really finish the books or they are just first edition snobs.

I got a call while I was typing this post from a friend of mine. He did so to inform me that he bought the book for 750 bucks from a place. It seems he was the first person to get the book. He has been following the Potter series and I am very curious about what drives these people to be so mad.
I have friends who just hate harry potter for the reason that it is a book meant only for kids...
This situation reminds me of a dialogue from the movie Bunty or Bubli. I wanted to type it in Hindi but let me explain better..
There are two of people in this world: One like Harry potter and the other dont....

Wish the outcome of the book is a good one. I am getting a copy of the book in a day or two as I checked my book status to be "Ready to Ship!!!!" I was quite happy about it.
