Virtual lectures

In his insightful article about virtual education, Robert X. Cringley wrote on these lines : …. It’s that whole “degree from MIT” thing that allows that school not to worry about sharing its lecture bounty, because in the education system lectures are viewed as worthless unless they lead to a degree. Why is that? My [...]

Back after two months. I am writing this post in one of my lowest points in life. So please bare with me. I have been preparing for a competitive exam. That’s why I was out of action for a while. Today, I wrote the test and I screwed up everything. My worst nightmares came true. [...]

Empty Silence

Today, I was consumed in a thought deeply. Not once, but multiple times. The reason is, I will be home alone for the next seven months! When I thought about it, all others thoughts simply disappeared and a dreaded silence of my place descended on me. It was scary! Next moment, I try to divert [...]

Thursday banter
June 18th, 2009 · No Comments · Reflections
When you live on ideas & thoughts. It inspires. It makes you believe you are special. It makes you think nothing impossible. It also generates impressive sounding solutions to the problems.

May 6th, 2009 · No Comments · Reflections

Number game

That was the time, when motor bikes looked like gigantic machines and had impression that only mighty can ride them. I saw them with awe. I rode, imaginarily, spelling aloud a heroic story behind my ride, with producing sounds like running bike, on a parked two wheeler. I had an innocuous confusion, when I see different [...]

An unanswered question
September 3rd, 2008 · 1 Comment · Reflections
One night, when I was still single digit year old, after an exhaustive play, a question hit me like a bullet out of nowhere. What is life after death? Will I be like same as I am now, even after my death? I don’t know, why such a question I had. But it scared me a hell. [...]

I planned to write about things that are close to me. The things which are known only to me and which are irrelevant in any context. Sometimes when you think about your childhood fantasies, they often makes you to giggle. This is what I am going to try out here. I will post stories of [...]
