The Great Fall!


Humpty Dumpty sat on a Horse,
Humpty Dumpty had a Great Fall!

 Today was the ultimate day. Some may call it aar ya paar(now or never). Today 'Sniper' tried to snipe me. Luckily, he missed the bulls eye. :P

 No sooner do people start appreciating you and patting your back for being a good learner than the atom of pride shadows the real you and you try to deceive yourself by believing that, ‘Yes, I have done it!'. And then comes an eternal force slapping you hard on your face, making you realize your true strength, saying, "Dude, you're nothing in front of my power!"

 A Whip in your hand and the giant beast below you, you think you're the boss, and you try whipping him hard and the next second you're on the ground and that beast is above you. It happened in the blink of an eye.

 All praise be to that eternal power who is all merciful and who created us and that powerful beast. There is no way any human could have controlled what happened in that second. I believe every dedicated rider who thinks he has learnt all should experience that moment once, if he hasn't. It will clear all your doubts and bring you "Down to Earth" literally down to earth (lol).

 I would have walked out of the arena but it was the motivation from Naved, my coach, that made Sniper miss his bulls eye.

 This day I learnt a lot of things like making a horse listen to you, whipping is not the only way,
appreciating a horse, preventing a fall(but if you're destined to, you will :D), you can always improve through continuous learning but you can't be perfect, of-course you're not the boss :P and other lots of subconscious learning which even I don't know.

 And so this time,

 Humpty Dumpty sat on a Horse again. :P

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...
