I finished my AEC lab internal exam with much difficulty as it goes. Apparently, I got the easiest experiment among all the experiments, and then again the easiest of the bunch of easy experiments, still the output was obtained when there was only 15 minutes left to the deadline. Seriously, how do they expect us to get the right output with all the wrong components? I got a series clipper circuit, that being a very simple connection, all I had to do is use a diode, a 3.3K resistor and a power supply along with some connecting wires to obtain the required output on the CRO. But, the components not being up to the mark, as they say it, I had to change the diodes and the CRO two freaking times! If I had to change it once more, I'd have considered doing it without the breadboard! So, now that the lab is over, I have no regrets, because in the end I got something which could be considered as the output. And the external seemed pretty okay with it and with the viva voce as well. It all went good, considering the party we had the previous night on account of Karthik's birthday. :P and well, the picture attached is not my experiment, but clearly depicts some IC on a bread board. :P
A first person view, of My life, Engineering and The RC phase shift oscillator=random shit. Fact or Fiction is up to you to decide. ;)

Inexpensive Hostel Birthday Cake :D
So, it hit me, "What if we don't have a cake?" looking at the banana and apple on Shreyas's table, we could make a birthday cake dish, out of the world! So, armed with Vijesh's white plate (the base of the cake), some almonds, raisins and a rose syrup concentrate, we ended up making a 100% pure vegetarian cake fit for all and even cost effective. The best part was the dressing on the cake, with blood red rose syrup waiting to be slurped and licked upon. No doubt, the birthday was over whelmed provided he was told that there was no cake for him that night. We all relished the cake, but Rashmit did the most. So, a tip for all those who forgot to bring chocolate cakes for their friend's birthday, some fruits could do the trick. ;) Now, I'd have to go back to studying given the AEC external practical lab tomorrow morning at 8. Happy Birthday Karthik! :D Keep reading folks. :)

Infamous Chicken Noodles.
We hail from a city where Chinese food is present in every nook and corner of the streets. Thus, when we come to a place where people have just invented Chinese food, the hunger to gobble it down the moment I see it, never stops. Plus you get cheap Chinese food over here. In Mumbai, if you ask half a plate of Chicken Fried Rice or Noodles, they'd straight away tear a bill of 50 rupees in your name! But here, even a full plate of Chicken Fried Rice or Noodles cost 44 rupees. What we usually eat is Half plate Chicken noodles. The usual food every student of our college eats, except some people ( pure vegetarians, my room mate, etc. )
Earlier, the hotel from where we eat used to test our honesty. All we have to do is go to the kitchen and tell what we need to hog on, and then pay at the counter. But, human nature as it is, most of them go home without paying, so the very smart but rude owner of Hotel Ramakrishna found out a new " COUPON " system. Where we have to pay first and then take food from the counter. Hence, the owner gets more money in his pocket than usual. One more aspect of the owner, my blogger friend Shreyas Bhat pointed out, is that almost every other work in the hotel is done by the owner including cashier/cook/cleaner/bouncer. Yes, Bouncer, he calls people who haven't paid back and shouts at them as if he just stole his life away from him. In other words, he did. Well, apart from that, there is nothing around our college that fills up a students stomach better than a Half Chicken Noodles from RK, or sometimes a Kebab to make the dish more luxurious. Yes, Kebab is indeed a luxury with 12 rupees a piece. Earlier they used to charge 10 bucks for a piece. I know, for most of the rich people reading this, 12 rupees might see trivial but ask those who stay in a hostel and they'll tell you the importance of money. Moreover, ask my friend Abhilash Shetty, he's pretty good at explaining things. ;) Here's an attached image of Half Chicken Noodles with and without Kebab, costing Rs.34/- and Rs.22/- respectively. :D Yes, one more thing, the taste of this noodles varies daily, and yes, daily, i.e. every single day!

Everything, except God.
Once, I decided that I'd blog every single day, and then I just left that decision there, to rot. But today, as I fell down with a thud in front of one hundred people, something deep inside of me told me, that I had to blog. I don't know why, but the fall had something to do with this, all. Today, I come before you, not as a person who talks what crap happens to him in his day to day life, but rather a more wide aspect. Religion, caste or God moreover, who we are accustomed to worship earlier than we learned to speak. I remember saying all "Shlokas" by heart, but not knowing the meaning of a single of them. Now, when I look back, I think I was such a fool when I was a kid. Don't we all feel the same way? How stupid we were when kids, getting angry for no reason whatever and doing everything what elders tell us to. But as we grow and learn, we understand that its not the way shit works. How many of us know the actual meaning of what shlokas we blurted out in front of statues of Lord , Krishna, Ganesha and Saraswati.
My point is, people do not try to understand God, and so in that lazy behavior, they either stop worshiping the superior power, or turn into atheists. One thing about atheists is, they turn out to be very arrogant and they go all like, " We do not believe in God or whatever, f*ck you!". I simply do not understand, if they do not believe in God, why are they angry for no reason at all? Well, if you knew what the superior power is about, you'd not be angry as much as you are now. Food for thought.
Ultimately, it comes down to one thing, whether or not one should worship the almighty. If yes, why? Does something like that even exist? Or is it just the human brain acting all funny? Or is it just the ancestors that thought of acting crazy centuries ago and made up a new deity? Whatever the reason might be, Science, our predecessor still hasn't proved some shit yet. So what I believe is, till Science totally denies that God exists, or reveals all the secrets of the universe that even the brightest brains of the world are not able to decipher, would be the world I'll stop having faith in a superior power. Till then, I'd like to believe that there is a superior power, and that is what is controlling the universe or more over guiding our lives. Fair enough, atheists? Until then, it is in our hands to save the light of the supreme power in our hearts. Keeping reading people. :)

Internet=Blogging
Yes, I agree its been pretty long since I last put a post containing my verdict about the everyday random shit that happens to me. And every time as I fail to keep my promise, I henceforth do not promise to promise that I'll post regularly. Well, there are not much people who read my blog. A mere 65 people like my facebook page, half of whom could be unaware of what the page is or why they would have probably liked it.
Well, in the past two to three weeks or so, we couldn't get wifi anywhere near the hostel, but now that I do in the comfort of my bed, why not blog? so, I grab the opportunity and post some stupid shit right here. Like the rest, I do not promote my page on random photos or comment on random pages. That is just lame, isn't it? Exactly. Anyways, If I get this kind of internet connection at my doorstep every single day, I promise, wait not promise.. I shall try to blog (every single day), I hate that word. While my friend reminds me of the topic "Retarded potential" in "field theory" while listening to Katy Perry's Firework, and I try to struggle through the slow internet connection looking for a picture of some technical stuff.
I found out, if there are pictures in your blog, people read alright. !! Here's a picture of... better luck next time, Google images is giving me a hard time!

Sole to soul
So, after a day or two. I finally decided that I'll blog today. I recently finished reading this book of Durjoy Datta which goes by the title, "Now that you're rich, lets fall in love". I never really understood the point of giving such huge a title to a book.
He could might as well written the climax of the story on the cover page. He is a swift writer, no doubts about that, but his books would be a lot more decent to the eye if his titles were, maybe a bit shorter? Almost all of his books have very long titles, I need to ask him. WHY?
Apart from the regular shit, I'm going through a period of my life, when everything and everyone seems to be happy, and those who aren't, well, they atleast pretend to be when I'm around, and that does the trick. Hence making me, by default the happiest person on the planet. :D
Mean while, all of my friends are headed home during the mini vacations, in the upcoming week, "On account of" Dusserah. I prefer staying back and attending lectures, because I cannot afford to miss the love of my life during the semester vacations( The perks of not having a cell phone or a facebook account, I'm telling you.) So, well I'm attending lectures on Sundays also. If you are wondering why? Read the above sentence once again. The irony being, the sole of my shoes went rogue, and so did my soul. ;) "Agar baat samajh aayi to ek dabaye" :D
So, yes I'm going to stay at both of my Granny's places and....nothing. I'm just gonna stay there and wait for the vacations to get over. Plus the young lady sitting next to me is peeping into my computer every now and then, so I'd rather publish this post, than be recognized by everyone in the college the next day as, "THE GUY WHO BLOGS! OMG! :O"
Keep reading people. :D

Yes. Blog update, Here it is.
After two weeks since I last blogged, finally I got time to update. A lot of stuff has happened in the past two weeks, exams and all that kinds of shit. But more importantly, I write this blog because my senior always asks me where my blog update. I keep promising her everyday, but at the end of the day I get pretty lazy to actually take out my laptop from the locker and type in shit when my hours in the college past so well and life is bliss. I shall give the reason later, for now, its just that, I'm the happiest guy on the planet. :D
Right now, in my friend's room after a intense counter strike session, I decided to blog when Manjoosha texted me "Gn sd tc" which interprets, " you do not update your blog, and I'm not talking to you" so yes, here is the blog update. Well, this isn't much but there's a lot more coming in store. All of this shit I've been through these two days is worth sharing and yeah +=> it is some funny shit alright. I've nothing to write about as of now, because I'm sleepy and I'm writing only because I do not want to piss kind people off :P Till then, keep reading people. :D
