My Musings..

Behavior solely decides others attitude towards you.

To an extent at least, you see being nice doesn’t necessarily mean you will be treated equally nicely.

So I guess the foremost thing that one need to understand is that you yourself can only satisfy ones need.

Others may be able to compliment it, because what satisfies you is decided by you.

So raise the bar for yourself (so that you work hard to achieve your target) and lower the bar for others (waiting for others to do your job is plain laziness and foolishness on your part).

So called final year project ......

Last final semester and all I have done is time pass.

In between studied for may be 4 to 5 days during mid semester.

For rest I can safely say all I did was finding different ways to while away my time.

But all this was broken with the unexpected project presentation that was expected from morons like us who had done nothing to present.

Our project topic is fault detection using wavelet transform and all we had managed to understand so far was wavelet transform.

Every project session (which itself numbered very less) was marked by finding few more IEEE papers related to the research papers done in our topic without going through any of them.

Yet we were unperturbed by the prospect of the presentation, after all this whole thing was arranged for our juniors.

So with this happy thought we made an entire ppt with 32 slides and started reading serious stuff.

All this crashing down when we showed our ppt to our guide who clearly ordered us to change the whole damn ppt with more focus on the detection techniques.

This meant going through all the ieee papers.

Oh by the way before all this mess we did try genuinely to learn matlab to use it for analyzing signals.

But after one week we had to accept we have too less time to learn that properly.

So yesterday we went through all the detection techniques and found after all it’s not that bad.

Infact it is interesting for the most part.

After properly understanding we made slides which took us some 4 hours, and then our pc crashed so we lost all the slides.

We tried all possible options to retrieve the data but ended up making the slides again.

So an entirely abnormal but fruitful day ended with us reaching our home at 11 in the night all exhausted but glad.

As far as the presentation is concerned, am sure none of my juniors must have followed all the mathematical mumbo jumbo that we spoke today.

Total tp...

For the past few days am racking my brain as to what to write about.

Went through all my previous blogs and trust me am baffled that how in the world did I write all those serious things.

You write the best when you have got nothing else to do (meaning you are all time bored with nothing constructive to do) or when writing is the only medium to vent out your charged emotions.

Off coz the blogs that I have written to do away with negative feelings are the ones that actually elude me.

So where was I, yup what’s up with me?

Well nothing much, just adapting to new changes in my life, doing time pass, basically having a jolly good time.

Not that this is any different from my usual days but yes the change that’s going on now is a good change for a change; because as I said before I hate changes but that’s the only thing that is constant.

Recently a close friend of mine gifted me a special book by the name The Kite Runner by Khaled Hosseini.

It’s simple but a powerful story of journey of two people as different as you can get yet bonded by a bond which goes beyond the bond of blood.

The language is at its simplest form but the words provoke you to think beyond what is implied.

Subtlety at its best; that’s the best way I can put it.

On one hand you have got Amir who has got everything that a materialistic world can provide him with and you have Hassan, poverty slapped onto his face yet has got everything.

But some how Amir is the one you can relate with and Hassan some one whom you can idolize.

The story begins with these two people sharing a curious bond with no name, set in the time when Afghanistan was obscured from the world map because of its normality.

Through this book you get to know a beautiful world which once existed in Afghan before it was ravaged by one and all.

It makes you realize what we have lost due to our human errors.

The pulsating culture, the pride, the exquisite cuisine, the scenic beauty, the action packed kite running etc that existed in Afghan once upon time has been beautifully put down.

Between all these intrinsic details you have got our lead pair living a life at its innocent best.
