Studies for what ?

of course the title of the post is very confusing. Well my idea of writing this blog is to express my views regarding the studies. What should be the motive of the studies ? knowledge ... getting a job.... of getting out qualities within you...

so many things. when i finished my schooling i was a person who used to be involved in all kind of extra activities. learning music, drawing and whatever chance to play any games. i did Karate classes, football and cricket coaching played volleyball and basketball matches, moreover i have been part of the teams visiting for attending any competitions. Doing all these things i have not been able to keep my scores high.
+1 and +2 also gone with same attitude towards studies and i was able to score 59%.

now i was decided that i should not get involved into these many things i left all and started serious studies
i have done a regular hard work and scored 83% in my first semester. i was surprised with my performance but when i looked myself i was changed. I was not the real Amit who was known for some other things, now amit was known as a topper in the class. i dont find it good at all again decided to change my life style back but here it was not easy i was in Hi-Tech city Bangaluru (Bangalore at that time). I made some friends and started playing football. i got some good friends on the ground some of them were from africa having cool good stamina. Then i got a chance to attend a singing competition and not some other got to know me for my voice. whatelse i need i have good friends and nice friend circle. Ofcourse, studies are necessary i studied the things but not with the feeling to score much marks just to get the knowledge and finally i passed graduation with 76%.

Now comes the post-graduation from NITC with full of resources and so many nice friends who are somewhere near to my ideology i enjoyed a lot again leaving the fear of scoring less marks, and just focussed myself to learn what i really need. now at the time of placement my learning process is still continued with a queue of so many things where i am learning from one side and inserting things on the other end to learn ... here also same low CGPA compared to others for myself its enough..

Sometimes i feel bad i should have scored some more marks sometimes i feel satisfied for what i have learned. This was just my style of learning i learned and feel satisfied but coming to comments from the people who may feel my way is wrong i feel something can be done..

Just wanted to know your viewpoint regarding that

My PC in a bottle

When i open it after a long time, I feel very happy to get some my old pics back which i have lost in some experiment computer when i was doing BCA. i had a pc with very low RAM and some 40 Gb harddisk. so the first thing i did in bangalore is got an internet connection. so one day i have cleaned my PC that was the first time i have removed the heatsink from the CPU and seen the actual processor. but after that cleaning the paste between processor and the heatsink was gone and my system started giving heating problem. after some days i removed it from the cabinet and put all the parts on a newsprint. now it used to work better for some more time with my table fan cooling it.

One saturday night we had a party and later on i was not able to start the system because of some loose connection the friend was kidding on me saying that u better put this in some box. i felt bad and from somewhere idea came to insert system into the bottle we have finished just before !

you can see the real scotch we enjoyed at night
finally the work started i took some petrol from my bike and diped a rope in that then it was kept on one side of bottle and set on fire, after the rope turned into ash the side wall of bottle came out after as firm shake . then we made other requires hole using same technique, i tool out the motor from my walkman and cut the wings of a old heat sink fan it worked and was used as exhaust fan.


now the major work was done yes we fixed the components and dropped the components we can insert to bottle like Diskdrive tray and the floopydrive


so Here is the final creativity of the night


and the moments to remember the PC was playing my favorite Ghazal

but that was the last night of my old mother board and the processor. soon after playing some 2 ghazal there happened something and fumes coming out of the bottle made all things gone. unfortunately i haven't uploaded the pictures with fumes to the ringo so couldn't got them back.


My sincere thanks to the ringo people who made me to write another post for my blog when they have delivered the wrong set of pictures to me and made me think of this whole stuff !

G hostel चेट्टा

The man with a smile always on his face, with his presence in the hostel no one ever felt we need a hostel warden or the steward for the hostel. if u have ever been to G hostel you would be knowing the phone attender of G hostel ... for us he was चेट्टा yes that's we normally call to malayali male people.

He was alone enough to take care of big G hostel. It is very sad he is no more in this world. One early morning when he was coming to his duty he slipped and the small incident took his life. he had directly fell down and his neck got injured. Nobody saw him there he was lying there and he was bleeding badly from his neck by the time. When it was noticed he was taken to medical college hospital. Later on we got the news that he is no more.

I am not finding it good to use this news to update my blog but just i am using it as a medium to pass on this to my all who have stayed in hostel


may god bless his soul, we always miss his presence
