One for the new year.

Oh boy, been a while since I posted something out here. Well it's a combination of multiple factors for my sabbatical which kept me from posting this, I can promise that this is the culmination of all my drafts which had been sitting for the past 2 months. I promise that I will make a posting regularly this year and to that I will stick too.

I forgot that it's my sixth anniversary of my baby(my blog of course). After glancing through my archive I have had this sense of fulfillment which gave me this euphoric feeling. It's not an easy task to keep a blog running among the six years and every time I want to reflect on a part of my life these provide more illumination and clarity for looking at the same issue in a different perspective. This blog is part of my evolution and it showed me how much I have come far from that time when I started this. A long way indeed.

As for the new year I would've to admit on the fact its a very special new year from the moment the clock chimed 12. I have a feeling it's going to be a very special year indeed. Reflecting on my past year I've had a rather very rough year for the initial 7 months and a wonderful 5 months to make it up for the hardship which I was put through. May be its the pattern of life and I can vouch for the fact that the fulfillment I attained in this past 5 months was well worth the 7 months of hassle and especially the last 3 months. They have been wonderful. I could write a blog on everyday for the past 90 days ever since I was lucky to gaze those emerald eyes. It's really amazing how one person can make a big difference on the outlook of life. 

I have been really productive at work. My mom always says the mental satisfaction is the one which could drive you to an Utopian state where all your senses  feel synergistic with the world and gives you that spark which would make you love everyday of life. I used to be really skeptical about her words if i really would go to that place because I am that sort of person who never gets satisfied with anything. Always looking for the next level to ascend too, but for once I felt I was disproved by mom's theory. I concur with her on the fact which could be the new transition which is taking over right now. I feel extremely happy everything synchronizes now work, family etc.

On a rather nostalgic note. I started off my blog with a post on Sherlock Holmes. Well I have always been an ardent follower of the series created by Doyle. I wanted to add a note about the modern adaptation of Sherlock Holmes in Sherlock. It's pretty amazing I haven't written a detailed blog on the series yet but quite possibly the best adaptation of Sherlock Holmes yet and had Doyle been alive how proud he would've been? One of the many reasons I love the show is because of the fact that the creators of the show are lovers of the original and they do their amazing best to allure to the original in all they could and very little attention to detail which makes the book readers proud of that fact. Most people who watch it for the sake of watching a TV show won't really understand the complete analogy and the root of the show. I will do a more detailed posting on this after the finale of the Season 2 which airs next week.

It's been a truly wonderful start so far, Among the six years I have been logging my experiences on my blog this year has to be the best new year's eve ever. I have to add the word Classy to highlight the significance. I feel so tempted to end this blog with a tune of Ennio Morricone but I have a special song specifically to end this post for a very specific reference.

Until Next time!!


The song is a cover of Immigrant Song by Trent Reznor & Karen O.

A Very Dull Christmas

Sad but true, My Xmas so far has been that way. Marathon of Indiana Jones, Die hard and Home Alone. The song better explains it than my writing.

Professor Chaos

I have been a firm follower of the actions driven by the heart despite my professional analytic abilities. The fact that whenever i want to make something right so badly, it backfires on me so badly.

I am well and truly the architect of my own destruction.

I can only ponder.....

Missouri Diaries - RockNRoll Queen

Not the ideal time I ought to be posting this. I put my YouTube favorite video playlist on shuffle mode and bumped into this song which I am hearing after a good 2 years. Hearing this song at this time of my life and I felt it was the song of the moment. I add songs here all the time but this song goes back a long way and to come at this time I could only point it to one Mr.Destiny.

In a way it's always more to the heart (in case you haven't noticed the connection to the Title) so I couldn't resist but post it.

"You're the sun
You're the only one
You're so cool &
You're so Rock & Roll!!!!!"




RockNRolla is very much alive thanks to the Queen!!  Until Next time!

RIP Steve Jobs

I couldn't believe it when I saw the news, Ironically I was making a comment about the new iPhone 4s on my tech blog and just got home after work to bump across this terrible news.

I couldn't imagine an Apple without jobs, People say they admire him for his visionary skills as for me I admire him for his tenacity. The tenacity which I looked up to. Not an ideal end to the day I was seeking.

This is the song running in a loop in my iPad who is mourning the death of her visionary creator!  The void will remain for a while.

Missouri diaries - Destined meeting?

I would be lying if I were to say I didn't feel euphoric writing this post today. I wanted to write this last night but after a day of really amazing incidents it was pretty hard to get my brain to make a posting out of it. Ideally the day ought to have started on a rather different note. I was actually very interested in the LAN party which was going on my company. I couldn't believe the ad which was posted on my company game community group. 

Yes you read it right my company has a group like that amidst many other groups. Ain't it cool? Well I was very pretty excited like a kid opening a present it's been just 3 weeks since I started the work here and I those weeks I had the LAN party. Considering the fact that I got my first LAN party in buffalo after 3 years. The only let down being the fact that I didn't knew anyone in the event and primarily I didn't see Mortal Kombat being listed on the game list. One thing added to other and eventually I lost the fire which was raging like a jungle fire for the first 3 days after I saw the ad. I am really glad that I actually made that decision where in starts the beginning of the eventful night which will linger with me for a long time. 

Instead I rather started the Saturday typically, I missed the starting half of the Merseyside derby but eventually felt better when Suarez netted the second one and my body was longing for some caffeine so I took the pleasant walk to a coffee spot nearby, In the recent past there had been many instances whenever there was an initial spark of something wonderful which is about to happen in the prospect but in a few moments those instances become totally void but not this time. What started as a simple banter eventually became "The Challenge". For once there was actually something which didn't become transient so fast and all those days I was looking for a way to express my perceptions through my postings here I finally had the opportunity to express all these to one special emerald eyed person who was wiling to take that leap of faith with me. Now that I realize about the amazing night which had passed I realized I did share some of the memories which I was very reluctant to share it with anyone for that matter and actually felt a lot better after sharing them. 

The later parts of this wonderful rendezvous would have to stay with me for time being. My uplifting mood is now well above the stratosphere and I feel like I am rocking out in colosseum all alone to Metallica cover of ecstasy of gold. I want to break the norm of ending my posts with a video. I'd much rather end this on a poetic note. 

 As I went down the hill along the wall 
There was a gate I had leaned at for the view 
And had just turned from when I first saw you
 As you came up the hill. We met. 
But all We did that day was mingle great 
and small Footprints in summer dust as if we drew 
The figure of our being less that two But more than one as yet. 
Your parasol Pointed the decimal off with one deep thrust. 
And all the time we talked you seemed to see 
Something down there to smile at in the dust. 
(Oh, it was without prejudice to me!) 
Afterward I went past what you had passed
 Before we met and you what I had passed. 

 Until next time!

PS: Coffee shops can be the wonderful starting point for something really magnificent!

Missouri Diaries

Well after a long time spend procrastinating the creation of this post I finally got enough motivation to write this today to completion. I should probably say I felt motivated through a series of rather serendipitous circumstances.

First things first, Transitioning into MO has finally been completed. I still do miss my old apartment, but the transition has been pretty smooth in ways which I quite didn't expect. I was more skeptical carrying my game console on 11/9 on an airport but fortunately for me security wasn't that much stringent in enforcing severe measures to scan all my gadgets. I'd say I got lucky as I have been getting really lucky in the last month or so. Probably feels like the most serene phase I ever had in a long time. My mind is at peace and I am beginning to like MO unlike my first transition into Boston from Buffalo where i loathed Boston for at least 6 months.

Autumn is off to a rather wonderful start. In a way to illuminate on the reflections of that effect I have made this new template change to my blogger as well.  The only distressing thing I have faced so far after coming in is the fact that my Macho Windows Phone died on me. I learned a valuable lesson from all of this though with ATT i should take insurance on anything without asking a question. I was thinking with this being just hardly 4 months old I was hoping they'd send me a replacement. I thank you very much for depriving me of my beautiful Windows Phone. I don't even to start on the spare I am having for time sake. I want this blog to end on an uplifting note rather.  Bring on the iPhone 5 I say. The story's true irony happened to be the fact that when I set up my Windows Phone Dev Tools on my work lappie my phone had to crash. Kalla Kanda, Naaya Kanom. Duh!

On the other note. I really am looking forward to September 30th with eager eyes. I am currently chewing something very interesting thought process. I do need to do lot of data collection and consider other interesting pointers from very important external sources to make it effective though. I am pretty sure next posting will have the glitter to it. 

As usual I will leave you with a song. 9/10 people would bet me to end up with Enter Sandman considering the fact I have been rocking out to them on Youtube live. Instead I leave you with this. On a more happier note Bills are ruling. Ba Ba Bills!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Until Next time.


No spring nor summer beauty hath such grace
As I have seen in one autumnal face.

A New Dawn

First things first, September as usual is pretty eventful for the number of birthdays they usually have one of my father's and my best buddy. Happy birthday SV..well a special birthday considering the event of his marriage :)  still 2 more birthdays left one being the occasion of my brother's which falls towards the end of this month and another one tomorrow for my chicken-aholic buddy Shruti.

Personally it's a wonderful month for me in all perspectives still euphoric from the amazing last 2 weeks and with my travel preparations to another new place for a new start yet again but Boston had some wonderful memories which I would cherish forever.

A long post is due on Boston times, well I will keep it short for now and will conclude this post with a picture.


After all they say a picture is worth more than 1000 words.



My Angels...
Sexy ain't they? I still am working on a theme name for all of them. More details will be divulged about them in my tech venture, while I am working on that I will leave you drooling for now. Until next time!!

Incredible month indeed

It's been a real eventful month not just for me, I just can't put my finger into number of items that I want to blog about. Personally couldn't ask for a wonderful month after the stint of horrid months I've been facing recently. It's so nice to get a bunch of new offers and I had the option to turn down plenty at this juncture. The silver lining happens to be the job which gives me the foray into Android Development which I have been itching to get my hands on in the recent past.

As for the other jazz we had the Google's famous Moto take over and the retirement of legendary Jobs. I was really impressed how the social media is so powerful and in a ways its a double edged knife which I don't like. The news of these events spread through twitter, facebook & even LinkedIn of all places. It's good to see people staying trendy top notch.

I definitely have to add in the feeling of experiencing my first tornado last night which emphasized the fact that man no matter how smarter and effective his weapons and tools have evolved over each year it still doesn't compute a little to the nature's power. I also did manage to experience my first blackout here in US the weird feeling gave me the sensation of being back at home. It was nostalgic and lack of power made me complete the last part of Millenium Trilogy - The girl who kicked the hornet's nest though the book lacked the initial charm first book had it picked up pace slowly. I was satisfied to finish the trilogy finally and I am looking forward to David Fincher's adaptation later this year.

I am also thankful that my affair with Irene isn't long term but rather a stormy one night affair which took my power away ;) (Alright this song is for Irene you twisted minds).



As I am posting this I have a really content serene feeling lingering in my mind for this past one month. It's so good to have this phase after a really stormy phase. Song for the moment.



I started on my writing venture finally, I am currently on the data collection phase until then this project will be in total wraps (of course I will churn the rumor mills here). Until Next time!!

YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

August 11 2011..... Best day ever!!!

I never thought all those times in stackoverflow would come in this handy in a crunch time in a very grueling interview. Danke stackoverflow. Euphoria will take time to subside!!

This calls for a high voltage songs running wildly in my head.
