Got a new laptop ..

 

quite plesed with it, except for the graphics card intel GMA500, which causes loads of pain working with linux,or even openGL on windows. Other than that all is as expected.

अॅसम ब्लोग !!

यह मेरा पहला हिंदी पोस्ट है

It has been high time now since I have written anything to any blog, so here comes….

Well not really …

I would have liked to write in detail about my experiences in Chicago and living with friends. (A few tips included) and maybe a few pointers to tips on cooking (A new-found hobby). But I guess I will have to leave it for a later time... Well I really don’t like procrastination and I am trying real hard to get rid of it... but again I guess I will have to leave that too for a later timeJ. The reason I have started to write again is because I have found myself with abundant amounts of precious time that I would like to put to good use. And the reason that I have so much of what everyone has so little is because I am on VACATION, back in INDIA!!! YaAaAaY!!!(Jump in the air, a double summer sault , land on the feet). So while I am at it I guess I will write more about it... so the next few blogs will be mostly be about my experiences in India. Not that I did not have experiences before but now I am able to compare it... and not that comparison will do anyone any good, but it lets me identify the experiences that define India.

The EXPERIENCE begins with an 8300 Mile (Oops 13,300 Km) journey back home. Rule no one: dare not mix up your units… it is actually quite easy... NASA does it too and the poor chaps end up with blown up rockets that dangerously veer off-course. Well you may not end up being blow to bits but it is a sure sign to your folks that something is off-course!

Well I must say, the trip back home is undoubtly the most rewarding trip that you will make… it is the sheer anticipation of getting back to where you belong that makes the whole trip more that your moneys worth. I would say that the least you could do is sit back and enjoy your flight … the cloudless dark blue skies, brilliant sunsets, sun bathed earth in golden light, swooping in and out of the clouds are unearthly experience that are added bonuses of any air plane flight.

Now that I am satisfied with the photoblogging fetures of bblogspot, I am going to start publishing some more blogs..
Let me start with showcaseing some of my favourit photos that I and my friends have captured over the past few months that we have spent in the united states.

Chilling of on Glenco beach (a part of me in the top left corner). Well if you have not realised , glenco is a beach alright but not on the sea. It is a part of the shore of the Michigan lake, almost an inland sea. awesome amount of fresh water. You have to see it to belive. This next photo might help you realize the expanse of the lake. This is what you are looking at lyimg on the pebbles on the shore of lake Michigan. Puts things in perspective..



Another favourite picture is this one, three "chamans" (Thats what ultimately everybody is) looking into the sky as if thinking what to do with these boats that they own.

Finally it is time to go home.. normally I would like to let pictures speak for themselves but one thing I want to add here is that this is the end of the glenco trip and the begening of the botanical garden trip.

Okay, I am posting this after a long time. To be frank I am just testing this photo blog. And What better photo to choose than the first veichle to be owned by me !
Let me introduce you to my 1996 Nissan Sentra. Pretty well maintained for a 1996 model huh? In chicago cars are a little difficult to maintain with all that salt they pour on the roads during winter. Slowly but surely eats through the metal of the car.
