Cooks and Books

Okies... Amazon has an excellent book store. I like reading reviews there. Sooo...I have linked it from here.

First....lets talk about cooks.
Cooks. They can be awesome or awful. In India, having cooks is common enough. I have experienced a fair share of both kinds. But the best part about cooks is they rhyme with books.

Today, I went back to the library to pick up some books. Having finished the alchemist, I have had no good reading material for a few days now. Today, I picked up 3 books after returning Pride and Prejudice.
1) Narcissus and Goldmund by Hermann Hesse
2) The Glass Bead by Hermann Hesse (He won the nobel prize for this)
3) Sense and Sensibility by Jane Austen.

I also put in a request for "A Suitable Boy" by Vikram Seth that was checked out.
And most importantly, I managed to recollect the name of a book I read a few months ago. This book managed to bring tears to my eyes... maybe because I related some of the characters with people very close to me. The book is "Ladies Coupe" by Anita Nair. I had picked it out of the "New Books" section of our library last year as it was an Indian Author. Do read it if you can. Here is a link abt the book:

Well, with that, I take leave of you all. Babye:)

lateral thinking or how mohan became a romantic

Well...I was gonna answer Enjay's question in the last post directly... and then I realized... I just cannot afford to fit it all in a simple comment. So... here is a blog on that.

First off, I myself am not sure as to what brought about this change. I do have a few speculations.....

My sis is romantic to the deepest depths of her heart. Seeing her, I always knew that I had to balance it by being as unromantic as possible. Sooo... now that she's married ( she got married this March) ...I feel more able to express myself;)

On the other hand, this seems to just be something that has happened mostly in the last one year. Maybe it is because I see so many of my friends hitched. Or maybe it is because I just happen to meet so many great gals!!! But it just happens that I am hopelessly in love with em. As Abhishek Bachchan tells Saif Ali Khan in the movie "Hum-Tum", no matter how tough and strong guys may appear on the outside, when it comes to the heart, we are always weaker than women. Or so it seems.
Now, I know that my affections are totally unreasonable. And I know that all this is a by product of having too much time on my hands. So...I simbly try to wait it out. I believe that if I wait long enough, the feelings will just pass. That I will become more realistic. But... there needs to be some outlet right? And thats where my blog comes in. And thats why I appear so romantic on my blog (at times). Coz... this is where it all ends up.

And my Chicago trip was really nice. I met up with a bunch of my younger cousins ranging from 3years to 10 years old. And their parents. Hehehe. Had fun calling them Uncles and Aunties when they are all only in their mid thirties. Hehehehe. The best part was my 3 year old cousin. He would ask me to come upstairs with him. Then make me sit down...on the carpet.. and then lie down. All so he could tickle me!!! hehehe. As Lisa keeps saying.. Kids are soo much fun!!!
Another cousin / neice (she is both to me .. as I am related to both her parents) demonstrated her abilities in climbing trees, something I was very proud of doing as a kid. Memories of the faithful guava tree in our front yard came flooding back. Those were the days.. when I would climb up on the tree (not for the guavas as the street urchins would pluck them before they ever got a chance to become partially ripe)... simply to hang out. I would use it as a swing.. as monkey bars.. as a hammock. It was a special tree!!!

Blogs have this amazing healing ability. To me, my blog is my diary. It patiently listens to whatever I want to say without ever passing judgement on me. Thank You.
And thank you dear S, for getting me started on blogging.

Why???

I have this outstanding ability to deny myself of sleep. Take today for example. I could have easily gone to sleep by 3 am (late..but still...with my first class at 1:30...doable). But guess what?? I had other plans. So I started watching this film called Varsham (meaning 'rain' in telugu). The heroine was pretty cute... and somehow...since I have become a sucker for love stories....I just had to see it. Being an Indian movie, it had its share of song and dance sequences. Some of them were really nice songs. Soo.... just sat watching it till 5:40am.

This always happens. Somehow...I read a book...or watch a movie...or just randomly browse...but I dont sleep early. Sad:(. Especially as I simply adore sleep:(

*yaaaaaaaawn*
Gnite folks. Sleep well:)

Why am I the lonely goatherd

linking to another blog relating the story behind the song by that name in that...oh so awesome movie: The Sound of Music.

So.. why am I the lonely goatherd? I dont know!! I really dont know. I selected that name by random. Maybe I had some hidden subconscious reasons. I will try to elaborate on some of them.

I am a star wars fan. Noo..I am not crazy about them and I dont go around buying star wars merchandise and enacting star wars stuff. But I like the movies. Especially the first three. They were well made movies with nice plots and amazing graphics for that time. Soo...I liked them. So.. naturally Han Solo was a name I was familiar with. But... my name is Mohan...or Mo for short (yeah yeah... my sis calls me that.. and my neices call me Momama {meaning Uncle Mo}). Sooo.. Mo Solo.

Now, I know solo means single. Single means lonely:(. And since another of my fav movies was The Sound of Music (the songs of which I have been listening to since my childhood... some of those rare songs that I actually listened to actually). So, the word Lonely automatically got associated with the song... and I called myself.. Mo Solo, the Lonely Goatherd. Or so...I have analyzed and figured out.

As Numphol said...I AM in Chicago now. Drove down here...to meet my neices and other relatives. Yeahhh..I have been travelling a lot nowadays. Have driven a lot this sem, especially as I have confidence in my driving now!!!

well..I better go and sleep now. My cousin fully intends to wake me up at 7 am as she has been having difficulty in staying asleep later than 4:30. So...adios ppl. cya all soon.

Alchemy.....what might it truly be?

I just read the book "The Alchemist" by Paulo Coelho. It was gifted to me by a friend, and I had almost refused it, if only she hadnt made such a big fuss about it. The vagaries of life eh!! Well.. it's a nice book.

The book is an easy read. You can actually find the text of the book at the related link. It's a small simple book.. and it attempts to figure out how to be truly happy. And that is..to follow your Personal Legend. To seek out that which your heart wants for you. And to not fear anything that may obstruct your path. For, if your heart truly desires it, you will achieve it. Just listen to your heart. For if you wont, you may be happy for a while.. but you will not be truly happy.

So.. be yourself my dear reader. Follow your heart, even if it means changing your life totally. Even if it means risking everything in pursuit of something that you have no clue about. And dont worry about harming those that you love or those that love you. For, true love, will only push you along.. give you the strength to face your fears and achieve your Personal Legend. (Personal Legend: That thing your heart desires and you have always wanted to be or do.. but may have covered up.. in order to listen to the wishes of someone else or because you were afraid to hurt someone)

I speak of personal legends as if I know about them like the back of my hand. Unfortunately or fortunately, I have never really felt that desire. I have had temporary wishes... desires that last a few days.. a few weeks..or even a few months. But seldom have I felt it affect me for long. Maybe I am already in pursuit of my personal legend. And dont know about it. But I think I am happy. And I believe I will be happy. And so I live. And so I live.

Mohan Rokkam soon to be BSEE

Me going for job fair ... smart and savvy;)

Yeah, it's been a decent time. My roommate had an interview with a company!!! and they called him for dinner... and again..he has another interview tomm!! Greatt ehh!! I do hope he gets the job that he wants!!! He sure works hard enough:)

in other news, I am happy and sad. Sad..as my cell phone company overcharged me by around 14$ for this month. Happy..coz my new shared plan, with a friend just arrived from India, gives us 1100 minutes instead of the 900 that we thought we had!! Some special deal!!

I'm getting set to do some travelling. Going this weekend to Chicago to visit relatives. After that, on Oct 9th, heading to San Francisco to meet my sis!!! Yeahh.. I'm spending money like water as my dad would say:(. But its all for a good cause:D

Good Luck people. Have a great time:)

They took our jooobs

yeah..its that time of the year again.. when I get to dust out my suit and tie and wear it to the Industrial Round Table (One of the largest job fairs on campus with around 200 companies visiting). Anywayz...today was the first day of the fair. We dressed to kill and went out early in the morning. I did manage to get into a lot of the lines before they got too long. The only problem was...I am not allowed to apply for a majority of the jobs (or to a majority of the companies) at the job fair. Why? Coz I am an international student:). Yeah... so... I went there... passed my resume out to a few nice ppl.. and now.. am at work. Well Well Well.. what else can I do?

The main reason I went to the job fair was to pick up some free stuff. Companies always bring these nifty little cheap made in china gadgets to hand out. I got mini radios..staplers...sticky notes... T shirts...(almost always a size too large).. pens.. soaps... stuff!! As long as I was handing out resume's, it wouldnt look good. Once that's done with, I will head out again.. and pick up free stuff!! (maybe a change of clothes.. and sunglasses will allow me to stay incognito. mwuahahahaha)

awrighty... take care pplz and njoyyy. I will update with some pics if possible. Till then.... laterzzz

Current Affairs

Of late... I have noticed something about me. I have become totally indifferent. To everything. I mean..I do my work.. I talk to ppl...I get on with life.. but in reality..I dont give a penny for anything or anyone else. I sometimes wonder if it was the same Mohan. I mean....earlier...I read 2-3 forums regularly, read the news every few hrs.. and was really concerned with the lives of ppl around me and my own. Now..I dont really care. True...I still read a few blogs.. but I am no longer that interested in anything anymore. I dont have the drive to really go and do something.

And to tell you the truth...I wouldnt have realized this till a friend said that I was acting different. He was worried that something was wrong. And my drinking all of a sudden convinced him that I was some kind of Devdas (ref: protoganist of an Indian tragedy who takes to alcohol to overcome his dejection). Anywayz.. I just realized that I didnt care for anyone anymore. That.. nothing really mattered.

Maybe it is senioritis. Maybe I am just tired of thinking. Whatever it is... It doesnt really matter.. coz... nothing seems to be able to affect me. I mean.. even my computer or my crushes dont bring any kind of feeling out of me anymore.

Yeah.. the word is indifferent.


P.S. Coming to think of it... this really happened the day after I got drunk. Hmmm.

Addictions galore.

It's been a long weekend. I have done nothing at all. Just decided to take up another addiction this time around. So.. started gaming.

Am playing Call of Duty: United Offensive (The expansion pack to Call of Duty). Now... this is the kind if game that I am typically addicted to. I started off with this tiny game called God Of Thunder (2-D, ooold game.).. after my 10th. Then...after finishing that over my summer break, I got addicted to Wolf 3d during my 11th-12th. (that first famous game by Id software). Then came Duke Nukem 3d. There was this other game that I also played... but I simply cannot remember it's name. it was a first person shooter too. All these games...I finished during my 11th-12th. I also played Spyro (Ripto's rage), Demolition Derby (I think), Gran Turismo (3 I think), Tekken 4, Duke something, all on my PS... but this was mostly during hols.. and later... when I was tired of studying and the stress started getting to me at the end of my 12th. I didnt finish up all these games at that time... so I played them.. and some others.. especially in that 1 year b4 I came to the US and after my 12th.

After I came to the US, halfway through my second sem, I got addicted to Medal Of Honor, Allied Assault (The precursor to Call of Duty). I spent an entire week on it.. and at the end of it.. my college life was a wreck. I was out of sync with a lot of classes.. and by the end of it, I could not catch up properly with most of my classes. It sucked. Since that day, I have rarely played many games. I am too scared that I would become addicted. I have played Need For Speed(5, HP2 and Underground), Warcraft3, Call of Duty... and thats about it. And that too... I played mostly during holidays.. etc.

I do have a great fear of getting addicted. I have this uncontrollable fear of being unable to control myself. I feel I should be in complete control over myself. Rarely happens... I know... the heart and mind often come to conflict... but atleast..I dont want to be under the control of some external influence. Or atleast.. not be under it's influence for long.

Wonder how long it will take for life to play a cruel joke on me.. such that I end up doing those very things I vowed not to do.


Edit:
p.s. Just wanted to add that I have finished this game. So.. onto better things now:D

Drinking

Yesterday...I decided... I have had enough of a dry life. So...I decided to go get drunk. And I did. First time in my life... and probably the last too. The alcohol wasnt really that great.. and I realized I could have the same amount of fun when I was more in control of my body:).

Eyes on Me

Another song I really like... My Korean friend TJ sent it to me.. and I never really liked it much then.... but it grew on me... especially.. the lyrics. I have put in bold... parts that I like best:)

Faye Wong - Eyes On Me


Whenever sang my songs
On the stage, on my own
Whenever said my words
Wishing they would be heard
I saw you smiling at me
Was it real or just my fantasy
You'd always be there in the corner
Of this tiny little bar

My last night here for you
Same old songs, just once more
My last night here with you?
Maybe yes, maybe no
I kind of liked it your way
How you shyly placed your eyes on me

Oh, did you ever know?
That I had mine on you

Darling, so there you are
With that look on your face
As if you're never hurt
As if you're never down
Shall I be the one for you
Who pinches you softly but sure
If frown is shown then
I will know that you are no dreamer

So let me come to you
Close as I wanted to be
Close enough for me
To feel your heart beating fast
And stay there as I whisper

How I loved your peaceful eyes on me
did you ever know
That I had mine on you

Darling, so share with me
Your love if you have enough
Your tears if your're holding back
Or pain if that's what it is
How can I let you know
I'm more than the dress and the voice
Just reach me out then
You will know that you're not dreaming

Darling, so there you are
With that look on your face
As if you're never hurt
As if you're never down
Shall I be the one for you
Who pinches you softly but sure
If frown is shown then
I will know that you are no dreamer

I wont dance

I won't dance, don't ask me
I won't dance, don't ask me
I won't dance, Madame, with you
My heart won't let my feet do things that they should do

You know what?, you're lovely
You know what?, you're so lovely
And, oh, what you do to me
I'm like an ocean wave that's bumped on the shore
I feel so absolutely stumped on the floor

When you dance, you're charming and you're gentle
'specially when you do the Continental
But this feeling isn't purely mental
For, heaven rest us, I am not asbestos

And that's why
I won't dance, why should I?
I won't dance, how could I?
I won't dance, merci beaucoup
I know that music leads the way to romance,
So if I hold you in arms I won't dance


I won't dance, don't ask me,
I won't dance, don't ask me
I won't dance, Madame, with you
My heart won't let me feet do things that they want to do

You know what?, you're lovely,
Ring-a-ding-ding, you're lovely
And, oh, what you do to me
I'm like an ocean wave that's bumped on the shore
I feel so absolutely stumped on the floor

When you dance, you're charming and you're gentle
'specially when you do the Continental
But this feeling isn't purely mental
For, heaven rest us, I am not asbestos

and that's why
I won't dance, I won't dance
I won't dance, merci beaucoup
I know that music leads the way to romance
So if I hold you in arms I won't dance!!

I wont dance.. from the soundtrack for "What Women Want" (Frank Sinatra).. also other similar versions sung by others ..can be found on google.

I like this song a lot. What can I say...I cannot dance as it is.. but the words.. are so what I feel like saying.

my latest crush is tC

with that..I take ur leave for tonight... dreaming of someone tap dancing in the background.. and myself.. swaying around a dance floor.. singing this song...with a nice girl...who will be wearing a long flowing dress (with frills too) in white...or pastel shades (or something like peacock blue)....siigh...I can see it all in my mind's eye... just not her face:).

To wake or not to wake

Today .. I had an interesting start to my day. I slept late, as usual, though I knew I had a class at 7:30am. So..I sleep around 3ish (am). 7am, the alarm in my computer goes off. It is this awesome little program (linked above) that uses the computer motherboard speaker, to make a screeeching sound (I think 1996hertz is the best frequency to wake me up). Anywayz.. I woke up with a start on hearing the screeeching noise. But... decided, half asleep, that it wasnt worth it. Till I realized that my roommates were still sleeping. One of who was in the 7:30 class with me and typically woke up before me to shower and get dressed. Anywayz.. so..I jump out of bed.. and move my mouse to get my monitor out of sleep mode. Till I realize.. that my roommate, in his sleep, has pulled out the plug for the monitor (dorm room's have wierd plug locations). So..I ended up rebooting my computer!! Thats like the 2nd restart in 2 days. WOW. I usually reboot my comp once in 1-1.5 weeks:D.

sheesh....life!!

As I said..to sleep or not to sleep. Thats the question that begs an answer of me but rarely receives it.

Proud and Prejudiced

Ok... I finally got done with 'Pride and Prejudice'. It's a nice book. And I feel compelled to write a few of my own thoughts about it.
It is a nice romantic story.... set in very romantic times. However, the book does have a timeless appeal due to the absolutely adorable nature of the story and the way it still applies to people today. After all, times change... but people dont. I think I am a bit romantic...so I find such things nice and entertaining.
The story, is one of those oft repeated stories (especially in all those romantic comedy movies) where the heroine hates the hero in the beginning... but later realizes that she does not really hate him as he is really awesome guy. So... yeah. But I really like the way in which her emotions are depicted at various instances. One gets the feeling of oneness with the character (even though I am a guy...Hmmm).

Anywayz.... the book I was reading seems to have been done in some english class as it was full of notes and underlined parts... and what not. But I am not distracted by those silly scribbles. I actually noted that some of my favourite parts were underlined...making it easier for me to find later.

Well...it's done. And so am I

To talk or not to talk

Good Morrrning people.

Today... I wanna talk about talking.

Talking... is something I love doing. I was not always like this... but this is how I am now. So... technically, I know both sides. I sometimes see people who behave the way I used to.. and I feel like shouting out to them to change. To get practical. To speak up. To let people know what their way is.. and demand it. But then...I suddenly realized.. life is not something that can be taught. Life can only be experienced.. and learnt. Especially when it comes to your personality. Unless you experience something, you cannot really understand why it may be better...or worse. The book Siddhartha comes to mind instantly. In that, the protoganist (?), Siddhartha, is on the lookout for salvation. He is in search of the true knowledge.. to be free from all worldly problems. This is based in the time of the Buddha.. who has achieved salvation and knows the true knowledge. Siddhartha's close friend decides to stay with The Buddha in order to learn the truth from him. But Siddhartha realizes that the truth cannot be taught. It should be something that will just dawn on you. You can only learn things to a certain extent. But without experience.. it will just be like bookly knowledge. One knows it... without feeling it. It is like knowing all the words in a dictionary... without knowing the language or the grammar.

So.. anywayz... now, I love to talk. I like being nice to people.. and I really like keeping my thoughts out in the open. I am still very shy when it comes to some thoughts... and very careful when it comes to some others. But most of the time, I can keep my feelings / thoughts out for people to see and know. I just cut myself off from them... because few people can actually hurt me. And that too.. in very few ways... and these people dont even know that. Heck, I myself dont know that till they do it. But most of the time... it is the lack of words that hurt me more... than the actual presence of words. It is those unseen gestures... those unsaid words at times of awkward silences that scare me. Thats why I dont like silence. If people are silent, I go ahead and talk.

But I wonder, why should I hide that which I hide? If I like a girl, why cant I go tell them that? Am I scared? Of what? That they will not be friends with me? That they, who have always taken me to be just a friend, or acquaintance, or even unknown person they smile at around campus.. will stop being that? Maybe I like too many women... and I cannot make up my mind. And why does social decorum keep me from being direct at those rare times that I am not? Gah. hehe. I am venting. I really vent on my blog all the time. Maybe I should think positive.. but I AM positive. My blog serves as a vent.. so.. I can remain positive all day long.. and smile and grin and scare people with my big fat face stuck in a permanent happy face.

Yeah. Ask all those people who hated me for being the only person to come out grinning after one of those dreaded EE exams... (Though I was just happy that the exam was done.... and since there was nothing else that I could do about it...I would just be happy)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I drove for 6 hrs yesterday!! Yay... 300 miles added to my tally. Thats 1300 (road trip) + 950 (road trip 2) + 300x2 (2 trips to Chicago)... = ~2850 miles in a month and a half. Thats more than I have driven in a few months in india. (I think I drove a few thousand km on my li'l two wheeler in India....over 4 years). So.. basically went to Chicago to watch a movie. A Telugu Movie (Telugu being my native tongue). The movie was awful... but it was fun. Just spent some time with people.. learnt some new things abt them.. and got back at 2:30am after eating dinner at a nice Indian restaurant at Chicago.

That be life.. and this be college. Welcome back to college Mohan.

It's been a hard day's night

It's been a hard day's night, and I been working like a dog
It's been a hard day's night, I should be sleeping like a log
But when I get home to you I'll find the things that you do
Will make me feel alright

:)

Been having a lot of work nowadays. Last 2 days.. were more or less like...

lab.. class.. eat.. lab..lab..lab..eat..lab..lab.. homework.. sleep. But then... I feel good to be doing the work. Happy/ fired up.. but tired.

More.. More.. Moore.. gimme more:D

To BMW or not to BMW

The above article on a chinese guy having problems with his BMW... has truly pained me. The 'beemer' does happen to be one of my favourite cars (having had the pleasure of driving it 2 times.. and riding in it many more times). If only ... I could afford a car. Or maybe.. fate has destined for me to buy a BMW as my first car ;)








P.S. I can dream..right??

Web Work

Well,

I finally got most of the website done. It is linked above. And what else... spent most of Saturday, and a greater part of the wee hours of the night into Sunday on it. Later ... did more homework (team meetings) and then.. chilled out with some friends. Then watched the movie "Shaun of the dead". If you dont mind some meaningless blood and gore, this is a HILARIOUS brit movie!! Yeahh!!

Now am reading Pride and Prejudice.

I was reading about the terrible incident in Russia. Just a few months ago, a large number of school children died in a fire accident in Tamil Nadu, India (Link). And now... around 350 ppl dead... including atleast 150 children. Many kids are missing too... as young as 3 years old. It pains the heart to think of those parents and children. My heartfelt condolences to all those people who have lost someone near and dear.

It is at times like this, that I wonder, is this one of nature's ways of controlling population. No, I DO NOT condone such acts. I just wonder. Is this how nature reacts when some species becomes a parasite. The parasites turn upon themselves... cleansing the earth. Maybe I am just in denial. I often wonder .. if someone near to me died... would I be happy that the world has one less person ... or should I be sad... because someone died. After all, in the larger scale of things, the smaller the population, the better it is. It's just a thought that strikes my mind every now and then.

Just to confirm... I AM NOT in favour of killing people. I just wonder about the advantages or disadvanages of such human behaviour in the larger scheme of things.

Love....seems to seek me out for no reason whatsoever. I wonder if it is a true feeling. Whether I am truly capable of loving. Maybe I am just a shallow being... just like I have always been... just like I was extremely fascinated by a fish tank for the first few weeks. And then...got bored of it.. leaving my mom to do all the work. Maybe that's the reason I feel scared to commit. Because..I spend too much time trying to decide on what I truly feel. And maybe...I am too scarred to be open with my feelings.

Actually..I am just lying. I am not in love now. But the above thoughts still hold true. I still have the problems.. and the strife .. I associate with love. Maybe I am only meant to be a "nice guy". Sorry V, you did say that nice guys dont finish last.. but ... nice guys do find it hard to get ahead in the game. They place the loved one on a pedestal, and are too afraid to take advantage of her at the point when she is down. And thats the only time one remembers the nice guys. Thats chivalry, isnt it.

Or maybe...nice guys are just too much of scaredy cats to really do anything. And so... life goes on.

I do think of myself as a nice guy. And I dont intend to be one all the time. I guess it'll take me a while... but I'll be out flying on wings of confidence soon enough:).

~>Ode<~...to those who really dont have a clue in life. To the nice guys.

Cheers.

Updates from a sloth

Hellooo ppl.

I have been away for a while. Classes have started.. and I have been lazy as hell. Not that I havent been busy (My darned team wants me to meet every other day to brainstorm or do some work!!)

Well, all of thursday, I was at work, trying to get a decent blog kinda software running on my college website ( As a kind of online notebook to keep track of our project ). Most such software need MySQL (That is NOT available on this set of computers). I tried PHP only / cgi scripts.. but nothing seems to be working. Waaaaaaaahhhh. I get errors like "Server encountered some error". I really have to talk to the college ppl and figure out what works.. and what doesnt!! You guys have any recommendations?

Thursday was also Pushkar's birthday. So, we had been up till pretty late in the night on wednesday. We sneaked into his dorm and wished him. Then... back to campus to do some more project proposal writing. Back home at 2 am. Slept at 3:30. up at 6:50 for class at 7:30. Sheesh. I dont know how... but I managed to stay awake. then.. as I said...worked all day. Slept early that night.. and slept in on Friday as I didnt have a class till 1:30. Went to class.. and then..relaxed. Saturday was Borna's Birthday. So.. got a cake... and wished her a little after midnight. The guys were playing a strategy game (Axis and Allies) and I just sat around till 4 am when I went to sleep. Friends were up till later. Soo...got up now.. and am at work...

My sniffles seem to have gone. I had been neglecting food a bit these last few days.. and I think that was the reason my sniffles got worse. Not enough nutrition;). So.. ate well these last few days.. and ..ooh lala.. I'm better. Sorry Lisa;), I am too macho manly to think of taking medications.. hehehehehehe;)

Well... just dont feel like sitting on the comp for much longer. Will read for a while.. and then work on my team website.

Peace out ppl. Enjoyy

Ah Ah Ah Ahchoooooooooo

I've been sneezing for ages now. For over a week now...I keep getting bouts of sneezing. Its not a cold...more like a weak cold. I sneeze... and I have a mildly runny nose. It runs a bit.. not crazily. I dont know what to do abt it tho...
GAH

Maybe I need more sleep. Its 2 am and I just got back from working on some project stuff. And a 7:30 class tomm ensures I get only 4 hrs of sleep. Ahh well. Thats life!!!

Gnite folks.. Have a Greatt time!!

I am sooo stooopid

Hmmm
I feel sooo stoopid.
I had a class from 6-9pm. Half the class printed out the online notes.. that the guy had mentioned in the prev lecture (Last week!!). Well.. anyway.. these online notes have fill in the blanks... so I missed filling them in. Especially since I am such a bad note taker.

Also... maybe filling the blanks would have kept me awake. I ended up dozing off for around 15 mins!! IN THE VERY FIRST BENCH!! GAH
See... its not coz the prof is bad or anything. I just tend to fall asleep when there is no action. I guess I am kinda like that.
Well.. anyway.. all said and done.. made a great day suddenly go sour. Well.. not that sour.. but still. If I was fairer...I would be bright red now.I still am bright red. it's just that my brown covers it all!!

Well.. do have phun ppl:D

Mohan.

My life

My life is rated PG.
What is your life rated?

Yeah... my life is rated PG. is that good or bad? Who knows ... ;)

BTW... I was totally tired yesterday. 2 days of low sleep... lotsa work..etc. was just chilling since yesterday evening though. Worked on some stuff... and then went out to get a shake at McDonald's. Now... the McDonald at our college closes early. I am talking before 11pm early!!. The drive through does remain open however. We went there to find it closed at 10:40. So.. we stood near the drivethrough... and the nice guy took our orders;). Did you know... standing in the drivethrough and ordering is illegal for insurance reasons?? But we did not stand IN the drivethrough. We just stood across from the order window..in the parking lot. Well.. anyway..took our shakes... and then... just chilled for a while. Ended up sleeping at 2ish. But... heyy... slept in till 10:45 when I woke up of my own accord!! Yayy!! thats over 8 hours of sleep... and I am happy.

Refreshed is the word. Need to go get some pics taken for some forms I need to turn in tomm. So... enjoyy people:D I'll cya all again soon!!
