Losing the vision... :D

This incident occurred when I was doing my Masters a year back and was living in a hostel, I shared this on FB when I wasn't blogging, thought to share here because my blog seem to be very empty and needed some content... ;) :D

Well, here it goes....

As usual I woke up this morning, opened my eyes and was petrified. I realised I couldn’t see. I closed my eyes and tried once again to open them and see but in vain. The first thought came to my mind was, is it still dark? I turned to the window to see if it was dark, and can see light coming in but the vision was blurry. Fear started swathing me, I started shuddering, weird thoughts plugged my mind, and I went into a state of quandary. What was happening to my eyes? Did I lose my vision? Is it because I spend a lot of time on computers? Am I dreaming or is it happening in real.

I cried for my roommate timidly, he got up from him sleep and asked me what had happened, I asked him the time, he fumbled for his cell phone, it is 6:30, said he. I told him, I cannot see anything, everything seems to be blurry. He turned around and saw through the window, light was peeping in but he couldn’t see beyond that, he exclaimed “DAMN IT” I too cannot see. We both were in horror, gaining some courage I got up from my bed and switched on the lights, we both could see our faces though not clearly, but we could. There was something very suspicious about our eyes; they were bloody red, puffed-up as if filled with air, and some kind of thick green sticky liquid around them.
He said “aapna banne ni aankh aavi gayi bhai...”.  :D :D :D :D

Chennaiyaa... :D

When I came to Chennai and joined the company, I wasn't aware that I'll be in the city among aliens speaking alien language, or saying in a better way, I wasn't aware that I'll be an odd one out. Like every fresher joining a new company, I was doing the same, greeting everyone, smiling at an eye contact, trying to befriend people. Days passed, I was assigned to project, I made friends but still I felt disconnected. The reason was, everyone around me talked in the language Alien to me, i.e. 'Tamil'. The Technical discussion also usually happened in Tamil, they cracked jokes in Tamil, and also laughed in Tamil. :P When all this was happening, I felt an urge to learn Tamil. I started learning with some basic stuff like counting numbers, 1: Oru , 2: Randd , 3: moonre , 4: naal , 5: aanj , . . . 10: pattu , " Unga peru enna? "(What is your name?), "Evalavu? " (How Much?) and my favourite " Teri Yaad Tamil " which mea...

#NetNeutrality

15 August 1995, a day when India celebrated its 48th Independence was another revolutionary day in the history of India when Indians got access to free information all over the world via Internet and within 6 months ten thousand people took access to this free information. Today there are 243 million users who are connected to this network called the Internet. After all these years of using internet for free have you ever imagined, what would you do if you are charged for sharing your status on Facebook? Whom are you going to complain if Wikipedia took a very long time to open up when you have to complete your project the next day? Where will you go if you are forced to pay for viewing videos on YouTube. What other best alternative will you have when you are not allowed to use Google to search content on the Internet. That will be a black day in the history of India for every technocrat, every student, every person who has an urge for sharing or gaining information which ...

Brainy Walk

Any one using a Windows computer will know some basic features of the system, like My Documents, My Pictures, My Music, and many more... I would like to share one of the nice feature of this powerful device, comparing it with our real life example. It is the "Recent Documents" which helps us to keep a track of all the recent activities we did, like stored a file, viewed a file, played a song, some movie etc... Reaching office this morning, I was wondering how God carefully designed our brain, considering the smallest details which help us to remember things, keep track of them, and triggers it to remind us of certain events, that happened in past. I was walking to office from my Home in Chennai to my Office. It is a 15 minute walk. But in these 15 minutes, my brain observed things which I was discussing the previous day with my roommate. I was walking casually thinking how to solve some problem in the code, but No sooner I saw some lady, my eyes automatically started...
