On My Mind Today

I think these two are quite similar. > The girl you are hitting on is like your gsoc mentor. > And the relationship that you are proposing to her is like your project. Now you all will agree with the following points: You have to work very hard trying to convince the mentor, that you are the right person for this job and will successfully complete the project. There are different types of mentors. Some are impressed when you immediately start contributing to the project ;), whereas others want a detailed timeline from you of how you would be doing the project. Nobody has ever been able to understand the ideology of mentors. You think they are supporting you in the start, but they are doing the same for every other candidate. Sometimes, there are other fellow-mentors also (girl's friends). In that case, you have to impress them also with your work. There may be other candidates that are trying to achieve the same project. They often try to convince the mentor that they...

I have been planning to write this for a long time. So basically you all would have observed that whenever you go out in a group for a dinner, there are always some specific kind of people and it's fun to observe the activities of these eclectic characters. I will try to list a few based on my experience. 1) Who is in charge of maintaining the law and order Let's start with this one person in each group who has considered this his topmost priority right from his birth. From placing the order to collecting the money from everyone, he has to make sure that the law and order is maintained throughout the process. He faces this obligation whenever the group goes out. This person often complaints that he has to do it everytime and publicly warns others that he is not going to do it in future. But everybody knows what's going to happen the next time they go out. 2) Who talks with only the adjacent person This is the person who very rarely participates in the convers...

I was searching for a clue for some english crossword and came across this site, which offers various word games. You can find the list of games here: http://www.wordplays.com/help/word-games/ Most of the word games are very interesting. My favourite one is word morph (Mention in the comments if you are able to beat 920 ;) ) Apart from the entertainment part, these type of exercises if played on reguar basis, can improve the cognitive functions of our mind (mainly memory, attention and executive function) significantly, and also, provide a nice way to enhance the vocabulary. There is also an android app for similar type of games, named "Text twist". Give them a try, you'll defnitely like it.

I wrote this almost 3 years back, in the summers of 2012. When will the ac start? 3 am the time is, and I am lying on my bed as helpless as today's economy, under these 3 blades, who are though producing some air but I don't know where it is going. Powercuts have become very common these days. I notice a ray of sparse moonlight entering the room through the window. What a pleasure it is to watch the beauty fabricated by this light on the front wall. Striking the tv screen and then scattering to the rest of the room, the light rays were never so visible before. It's quite endearing to see this accompanied by some thundering from outside. But when will the ac start. By the way, the sky is not clear today. It is only on these nights that I get a chance to take a stroll on the terrace. Its a kind of fun to point out the stars in the sky. Last time, I learned to locate the north using the Dubhe and Mirak. Sadly, I am not able to identify any galaxy today.  ...
