well there is this good news... bt not really for me bcoz now I wont be having a sister to visit for Rakshabandhan.... sad. relly sad !

hey had bought a cute little photo frame for her. mom also did gift her something... bt this was my gift for her. well in the photo frame i selected a pic of her and mine together when we were small and cute [shes still is cute]. with it i also put this "maar... ahe na" [ a small incident which i will never forget... ]

once whn she had come at our place long back... we were passing our time playing.. dnt remember wat. the next thing i remember is that i hit her with a cushion. she said "maar maar mee tujhi moti baheen aahe na... maar ! ". then i started bashing her up with more blows and later stopped {dnt remember Y?} bt she did bear all of it.

did reach the airport early an hour before... [surprised.. ? its bcoz of mom. whn moms there this is wat happens. bt better tan reaching late]

whn i did gift her the case ... she was damn xcited to open it...! which she did and i cud feel and see [glowing eyes and big smile] tat she loved it. she showed it to everyone around[... offcourse relatives only.. ya and her frnd Shalaka]

did pakofy others esp. Boss [Sushil dada] a lot while she was chking in... jst wantd to create a lighter ambience before the final good-byes.

Won the WebD competition in Technozonva'05 organised by VJTI. I liked the format ...didnt hav to whack my brains for long like in other fests where the format of the competition demands you to work on the website for 3hrs [sometimes 3hrs elims+3hrs finals]. At VJTI it was a 20 mins elims where we had to recreate a website which they showd a glimpse of and then a rapid fire finals of 1 hr which rawkd. Never ever had i tried to make a website in a hour. It was FuN. Wanna see what I came up with in just one hour... click here >>> FuN Mall . A lady Prof. judged the event was particularly impressed by my work.

Even Nishant was there for programming contest which was in the same lab. He never misses them. Another interesting fact is that he knws most of the programmers in the college that he goes to and he makes sure that he tells them about me. They end up comming to me and saying "Hi hello.. I am Nishants frnd.. he tld me abt u .. tat u r good @ webD and u wud probably win.."
Feels good !!! Feels good !!! Feels good !!! bt i may not be da best at accepting compliments even if i like them ;-) Do let me knw wat u feel abt da same... !


Sure this sem would be rocKiNg... Its started good already !!!

Cheers!!!

i LiKe...

on the terrace a few days back after dinner saying to myself...

I like the darkness when there is no electricity
I like the moonlight when there are no street lights
I like natural breeze around me instead of the fan
I like sounds that I miss in the daily chaos

I like to observe things which I miss
I like to think where am I heading when I am lost
I like to be unpredictable when ppl try to predict my moves
I like to surprise by acting foolish

I like to smile just to avoid other negative emotions
I like to lead when no one is ready to
I like to find my weaknesses from others' viewpoint
I like to hear good things about me that other people appreciate

When Sir Amiya Tripathi came and announced the dismissal of lectures,
it seemed a great relief from the unstoppable, "nothing great",
exhaustive DSP lecture. It was however unknown what would soon follow.

Bridges were washed away, rail tracks submerged, telephone lines hit
and large areas suffered power cuts. Among the worst affected areas
were Bandra, Mahim, Matunga, Dadar, Santacruz, Byculla, Kurla,
Ghatkopar, Mulund, Thane and Badlapur. The city's lifeline, the train
services, were paralysed due to waterlogged tracks and thousands of
people camped in the stations where food stalls were kept open through
the night.

We (Myself, Akshay, PD) started our journey through rains viewing it
as an adventurous, thrilling experience filled with excitement.
However, later when we found BEST BUS then half dipped in water with
lots of DBITians inside, a wise thought stuck us to return to college
premises; which we did but not all DBITians turned up to our proposal.
So the fellowship(Myself, Akshay, PD) again made the move to the BEST
BUS. However, we could not make it due to impactful nature of rains.

Returning to college was like taking a shade under our own house.
Well, we had a great fun filled experience; who wouldn't have when
there are ppl like Adhwait, Neto, Ravi around!

Strange incidents were all around.
Myself and Akshay went in heavy rains to bring something to eat for
all. We went through the canteen wala back gate and to our shock, when
we turned back with vada-pavs we found it locked! Then Anna's Dal-Rice
were overheard being appreciated. Atleast Anna has something in the
good books!

Astonishing statements were made by all the profs around:

"Anyone found on 2nd floor during night would be directly rusticated."

"Don't even turn your head while you r on the second floor"

"(At 9'o' clock) Did u guys had your lunch already?"
Still curious to know what was on the second floor!


We played all the games possible out there. Then came the time to
sleep! We struggled here n there on the chairs to sleep, but in vain.
Thanks to Akshay, he came up with an excellent idea to remove the
curtains and sleep on it. So when our bed was ready, everyone jumped
onto it to grab a place! Sorry Adhwait, as we could give you just 6cm
of the place.

Morning due to cold , we found our throat chocked up, may be due to
cold, laughter, screaming. Even Adhwait could not sing his Morning
Raga. "I can sing only BASE songs properly" in his own words.
Anna's FREE Black tea would have done the trick for our singer. We
were all reloaded then to spend one more day(may be even night) in
college.


It was indeed not a good time for Hygenious (hopefully correct
spelling) Neto around. Neto came on bike the same day. Neto
undefeatedly, patiently trying to call to his house right from 3 'o'
clock made a striking statement: "Mere ghar ka cell no. yaad nahi re
barabar se." Anish offered a great help by himself trying to call
from his cell atleast 100 times. Neto ended the first, and started the
other day by the same statement :- "Ae Anish, phone try kar na re!"


I had a good experience at hand and heartously SALUTE the SPIRIT of Mumbai
inspite of being SIX FEET UNDER, still keeps on going. Mumbai never stops,
Mumbai never sleeps! It has to go on. That's AAMCHI MUMBAI. Yeh Hain Mumbai Meri
Jaan!
