Finally I have managed to tackle the quals with confidence I cannot imagine in myself! Now, hopefully the record matches the rhetoric and I get to clear it. I have to start packing to the India trip but as lazy as usual and keep postponing it. What’s weird is that I am not in panic [...]

Yay! I am now a Humanist!
Posted in Uncategorized on August 18, 2007 | 1 Comment »
I have been toying with the idea of joining the American Humanist Association for quite some time but I was hesitant to meet new people and pretty leading a monastic life. So I started reading up on Humanism and finally built up the courage to joining AHA. There is a local chapter (interestingly, the meetings [...]
So it goes…

It has been a depressing week overall. Not counting the work I have done (or the lack of it). Then, as Jon Stewart put it right, the world got a lot greyer and little less interesting. I guess I must be in the wrong generation or something. Sometimes reality just sucks. How much ever you [...]
Philosophical Awakening
Posted in Uncategorized on December 3, 2006 | 1 Comment »
The last few days I was reveling in the company of a few of my labmates and one thing was clear: that my tolerance level for stupidity has hit the bottom. My ability to look at things in a simple perspective has completely vanished. Some nights ago, I was discussing about world politics in large [...]
What goes?

Here I am sitting with dread,
On the keyboard my fingers spread,
Waiting for my work to be done,
Boredom seeping through to bone.
I have nothing to write yet everything to say. When you start thinking back, why do you stop going forward? Is it really possible for someone to forget the past and move on? I find [...]
An Inconvenient Truth

As mentioned in my previous post, I watched a docu by former VP Al Gore, “An Inconvenient Truth” about global warming. It is interesting to see how in the last 20 years we have done damage not even possible in 10,000 years of human civilization. I may not have liked Al Gore a lot, [...]

Hasse Verpacken! Aber keine Wahl. (Hate Packing! But no choice.)

I did not realize that I had got so much stuff from Arlington which needs to be taken back. I have to credit Harini and mom who did the packing both ways. Most of the time I was like a retard not knowing what to take and what not to take. Anyways, how the hell [...]
Packin’ up

Roughly 5 days for departure back to Arlington and the rat race. The stay till now has been idyllic bordering on lazy. 4 months has whizzed by. My hon told me it would be more difficult to leave home this time and she is true. I thought I was detached and after some time came [...]
Woah, long time since I blogged…

Hmmm, the last few days has been really interesting. I don’t think I have ever shopped this much in my life. I have been going up and down shops looking for bargains etc. My mom can tackle any hard nosed salesman with ease. I mean her bargaining skills are way over the top. I just [...]
