Hit poker

I got my shoulders bulldozed by vinayak and arun gopal(My classmates),all thanks to the great sport called Hit poker. Its an ordinary 7 card poker but without any betting. once all the seven cards are on the table whoever has the best cards gets to hit the one with the worst cards. And it doesn't end here you can hit him anytime when he is least expecting it. Oh man , It's double the pain when you are not expecting it but it is double the fun!! ;-)

Science fest in college

Today we had a school level science fest in our college. There were many weird and interesting entries like " conductivity of urine". I see that as an eye opener to people who urinate on charged train tracks or near transformers. So next time you want to do it find a public toilet or else get your weeny fried. BEWARE!!!!

A nipple?????

A man reportedly bit off an officer’s nipple during a fight outside a Chicago bar on Monday night.

The Chicago Sun-Times says the man got into a physical confrontation with the off-duty officer and bit the officer’s nipple.

A doctor said the bite was so severe, the officer “lost a body part”, according to the Chicago Sun-Times.

mobile throwing!!!!! Oh come on!!!

I bet half of you reading this didn't know that Mobile Throwing is a sport. You have a world championship for the event that is held in finland. The sport is mainly supported bye companies that recycle mobile phones. The prize for the event is a new mobile phone. And that's not the end.... there are mainly four categories
  • Traditional: an over-the-shoulder throw with the farthest distance winning
  • Freestyle: contestants get points for aesthetics and creative choreographics
  • Team original: up to three competitors have one throw each with their scores added together
  • Junior: for children aged 12 or younger
Now that..........is a sport!!!!

Eclipse viewing

I saw todays eclipse with my own eyes through an indigenous pinhole camera. Took me like 5 minutes to build it. i took a long plastic poster of krishna(the god) and rolled it into a cylindea. covered on end with aluminum foil and made a small pin hole in it. On the other end i put a tissue paper and taped it around the mouth of the cylinder.Then i pointed the aluminum end at the sun and i was able to see a miniature image of the sun partly covered and at around 1:40 i was able to observe the ring of light around the moon ....was an awesome sight.... i also made a video of the eclipse towards the end i will post the link after i upload

T.O.C.K

I know you must be wondering what that word means. Okay it is a great contribution from my friend Sai Barath. he came up with the idea to make the funny T.O.C.K sound with your tongue whenever someone cracks a poor joke.It seems to have spread on at least among us friends. He has even stared a community in orkut. So next time someone cracks a pj give out a TOCK,,,,

Remembering Praveen

Today we had a condolence meeting in college. We had organized a candle lighting ceremony in praveen's honor. Everyone turned up and prayed for his soul. Later we were discussing about our memories of praveen and soon we were all laughing and that's when we realized that all memories we had about him were on the lighter side and that's why he is a great loss.Even in the picture he was smiling as usual and wearing the classic "praveen shirt"(black with white stripes). I pray that his family copes well with his demise.

PRAVEEN
"Your memories shall sprout roots in my heart"

First tragedy in my life

I make this post with a very heavy heart.I lost one of my good friends and classmate to a road accident yesterday. Praveen was the kind of guy whose side, you never want to leave. A very jovial,funny guy. It is very difficult when you find out that the guy who was sitting in front of you the other day is no more with you in this world. they were going on a road trip to Mysore when tragedy struck. The others who were with him had a narrow escape,with some fractures.
He shall alway live in all our hearts.

Praveen we all are gonna miss you da....

ring a ring o roses-not so funny

yesterday i came across an article about plague. one particular fact got my attention. we all know the nursery rhyme "ring a ring o........all fell down".but did you know that the rhyme was about the "black deaths" that struck europe. the deaths were caused by plague. the ring of roses refer to the inflamed rose coloured ring of buboes(buboes-swelling in the armpit and groin).And "all fell down.."signifies the ghastly deaths of these people...........phew...who saw that coming!!!!

pandit ravi shankar

today our digital communication professor told us about pandit jii's concept of tuning his audience before his show. pandit had come two hours before the show's start but then he went into meditating and then went 15 minutes late. when asked why his reply was,"they were not tuned to listen to my ragas thats why i took time and tuned them". i don't know if all this tuning and all is a valid concept but if the story is true then there must be something true about it.

Uploaded a new video

i just finished uploading a video in you tube. must watch if u have a mac. it will help a lot with your download speed.

Awesome class

Today we had a placement and training class which was nothing less than an experience. oh yeah she made us sing the nursery rhyme,"old mcdonld had a farm ee i eei o...". she made us quack like a duck moo like a cow, woof like a dog and at the same time made us act the whole rhyme out. but it wasn't all just fun she did tell us the basics of how to present yourself in a group discussion,the body posture,how to address others and all. she took two mock sessions one on-"women are better managers than men" and "love marriage.is it better than arranged?". people should take classes,that are a whole lot of fun and not just dry and boring.

new year resolution

i have decided to blog regularly..yeah thats rite i will try to post as frequently as possible
