Toothbrush and Teacups...

Yet another day in the class. Interesting stuff is what we are doing. Yesterdays assignment was to write the product specs of a toothbrush. Just the headings. Now don’t go ROTFL. It is a tough job. Do you know how intricate a toothbrush is?

We have to write it for a person who has been in coma since birth and has just woke up. Interestingly though, the dude knows English and can understand things! Just that he has forgotten about toothbrush and the details regarding it. So we have to write something for a toothbrush, which is akin to a user manual!
The dude thanks us:
“I have more friends now!”
Yeah sure…people can come within a mile radius of yours now!

Why do we write such mundane things?
A toothbrush!
Why not some cool mobile phone or a new motherboard?
This particular toothbrush it self has around 15 headings…when expanded it would certainly reach around 3 pages.
So imagine a motherboard…dozens of ICs, many a function…it will be a large document…
Wrote the specs of the toothbrush in the morning in a chaayakada (tea shop) sipping on a hot cup of tea... :D

Too bad the university exams are on…I will be missing core classes next week…3 theory papers and our screwed up system in college may give us a very hard time by keeping our labs on the very next day of our exams. God save us all if it happens…
Has to start studying for the exams…but today gone as I have to face a tough battle today. That really warrants another post, as it would be my final outlaw stunt in college.
After the three in next week another three are left…one of them really deadly…Database Management Systems…
I have high hopes of passing what I have written so far…really hope the university will be benevolent as well.

If tomorrow was today, today would be yesterday...

One of my favourite songs by The Beatles. Pressure is in an all time high with stuff piling up left, right, and center. These are the times where you long for a better yesterday than a better tomorrow. If tomorrow was today, today would be yesterday, But I long for my yesterday, Your yesterday, And our yesterday. I hope there is yet another day, Will it be any good like yesterday? P.S: These words are mine, song lyrics is there in the song itself. Trivia: Paul McCartney had a dream in which he heard the tune and he immediately composed the music. He didn't have any lyric and used to sing "Scrambled Eggs" instead of "Yesterday" while composing the song,

A Party...

Just came home after a party. A housewarming party. A horrible experience to say the least. Me and my parents went there just after me and mommy had a very uncomfortable talk. Looks like I have to be really careful... So was not in the best of moods. I usually hate these kind of parties when I have no company. My cousin is out of station so one is crossed of a precariously small list. When we reached there were lot of familiar faces. FIxed up a cheshire cat smile on my face and lit it up any time I saw anybody looking at me. Woman: Do you know me sonny? Me: *cheshire cat* (Who are you?) Woman: Don't know? You *blah blah* Me: *cheshire cat reloaded* (errr, I have no idea what you are talking about) Woman: Still no? Your mother *blah blah* Me: *cheshir cat revolution* (y do u bother?) Woman: Still u didnt get me? Me:NO! ( I really mean No!) Woman: Aha! You got me! Me: *smug smile replaces cheshire cat* (Did I?) Went upstairs...they were making food and the dining area...bad place to...
