Happy Republic Day
26th January 1950, India adopted the constitution and we became a republic country.
http://septemberthe22nd.blogspot.com/2004/01/happy-republic-day.html is a post that I made exactly a year ago on the last republic day. Things have changed since then and I also realize the fact that its been more than a year since I am blogging. WOW !
I wanted to get up early today and be there when the flag would be hoisted at the compus but I woke up only at 1:30 and missed the entire thing. Aastha tried to wake me up she gave about three missed calls but I was so lazy to get outta bed :(
Anyways Happy Republic Day :)
P.S. here is the image that I posted a year back ...
Ok I tried posting the image but could'nt post it. Actually I could'nt find a way to post it :D

I almost never had a wallpaper on my desktop or the laptop but then during one of the boring Corporate Finance lectures, I used a Bart Simpson Wallpaper and I found it kinda cool. After Bart Simpson, it was a map of springfield. Next I thought I would put in a Harley Davidson wallpaper. Since I din't have any Harley wallpapers, I logged on to my favorite Google Image search and keyed in Harley Wallpapers.
I found quite a few there and one of them was from the website http://www.metalmodels.hu and believe me they were sexy. I would recommend every one to go to the site and admire the art. I have'nt come across anything like that ever in my five+ years of internet career.
Here is a banner from their website...
I was so impressed that I almost thought I would also start working on metal models. I was also thinking of places from where I can procure stuff, but then I thought, let the experts make the beauties and I backed out.
If anyone ever comes across this post, I would urge them to please visit the website and have a look.

People @ Blogging
Recently I realized that there are lots and lots of people on the Blogging Bandwagon. Some expected, some totally unexpected.
And BLOGs are BIGTIME into Media. Recently ABC rated Bloggers as the People of the Year and then was this article in the Times of India about Bloggers. Wow we guys are going great guns and getting accolades for it.
Lee me try to figure out why people BLOG.
May be there are people who don't have anything special to do and just to kill time they BLOG. Example could be ME. Yes ME. I BLOG whenever I have spare time. This post is a good example. I don't have anything else to do right now and thought posting this post would be a nice idea. Its 2:46 in the morning/night and I could'nt find anything special to do at this time. Coming back to the question - Why people BLOG...
Apart from killing time, next best reason would be to get famous. BLOGs are treated as regular websites by the search engines and hence are indexed by them. People would search for keywords and land up at the BLOG. These BLOGs can be identified by the hit counters and heavy use of keywords. Example - ME ! Try searhing "ben_mario_piano" on your favorite search engine and you would know what I am talking about.
Another thing would be ...mmmmm... to express may be? I BLOG when I feel that I need to go out there, yell and tell people about it. BLOGging makes it easy. I can rant as much as I want and no one would ever try to stop me. After all its my space and I get to talk about my opinions, my prejudices. No one can question what I am saying. Ok I don't want to sound as a self-obsessed person here but serisouly there are times when you want to vent out watever is inside you. Blogging comes in handy.
More reasons... Dunno, people say they want to make world a better place to live in. They want to add value and dunno wat else.
The matter of fact is people BLOG and that too in huge numbers.
And I am kinda bored with this post now and would like to end this before I delete the post.

Mansi Balwani
Nishant asked me if I had Yahoo id of Mansi Balwani and I realized I din't have it. I tried searching on Yahoo People Search but could not find anything on her. Then out of curiosity, I tried Googling her and there was only one return and that too from a competition that she participated in.
Crux on the entire thing is that my friends don't have a e-identity ! I try hard day and night to be among the top few results at every search engine for Saurabh and/or Garg and some of the very good friends are absent from the internet. So here is the post, mentioning all the names...
Mansi Balwani - did BFIA from CBS and worked with McKinsey Knowledge Centre for a year
Nishant Nigam - Chemical Engineer from IIT Roorkee and two years with TCS
Surbhi Gupta - Mechanical Engineer from IGIT
Shubhi Sood - BIS from Delhi University (yes same as mine)
Siddharth Sinha - Electronics Engineer and two years with Baan
Satyajeet Gandhi - Computer Engineer from Indore and six months with Syntel
Jeetendra Bhojwani - Computer Engineer
Aastha Gupta - BIT from KMC (again Delhi University) :D
And in the end a disclaimer - These are the names of the people who are going out on Surbhi's birthday. The list of friends at MDI is huge and in due course of time, I would post the details here.

IBM Thinkpad R51 - KQ1
IBM Thinkpad R51 - KQ1, I finally got a laptop. I had been waiting for about 6 months now and I guess by the looks of things, the wait was worth it. I bought laptop on 31st Dec and I am taking it as a new year gift. So this is the first post off the laptop.
Another important thing about this post would be the New Year Wishes and Greetings. I am one of those people who would make resolutions and then try to keeep them. I don't know how many times I have been able to actually keep them. So this year following are the resolutions...
- Drive Safely
- Spend yet another year without drinking and smoking
- Try to be good to everyone
Plain, simple three resolutions. I hope I am able to keep em going throughout this year and througout my entire life.
That would be it for the time being.
Oh yes and I would like to add that I saw a Suzuki 1300 R on the Delhi roads on 2nd Jan. WOW. I can still feel the excitement inside me when I saw that bike !

Sholay - Title Theme
Sholay - the baap of all Hindi films opens up with a very very cool music piece. I wish I would post it here. It is an amazing piece of artistry by R.D.Burman ! I hope I could be atleast half as good.
I would try to find a few places where you could locate the song and listen to it.
There is this part in the piece where its all whistles and nothing else and probably thats the best part of this wonderful piece of art.

Keep Walking !
Keep Walking ...
Keep Walking is the tag line and brand identity for Johnie Walker and I kinda love it !
The words Keep Walking leave an indelible mark. Gives a lot of inspiration to people, at least me, to keep trying hard, keep working, keep striving, keep winning and above all KEEP LIVING.
There are lots and lots of people who would be very very good at things, great minds, excellent at thinking but would stick something stupid to their hearts and mind and drag themselves back.
Keep Walking is just a plain advertisement, but it epitomizes a way of life. People should take an example and learn. I have been collecting a few images of the Johnnie Walker advertisement campaigns and do I need to say that they were EXCELLENT.
Would be posting a few links in future... and till then KEEP WALKING !

The Best Of Me
Imperium, Delphique, Illumina and e-Blast are the MDI's window for the outside world. People know what happens at MDI, how hard we word, how harder we party, how we enjoy life through these events. Somethings are exclusive and people do miss them. Arena 2004 is one of them.
Arena is our internal sports and cultural meet organized once every year. We have competitions like races (in all flavours Dash, Relay, backward etc.), badminton, table tennis etc. I would leave the rest of the details for the lucky few when they get into MDI.
So the point here is not Arena 2004 but the matter of the fact is the competitve spirit that sports bring out of people. At Arena there were my classmates - some freshers, some with work-ex of 5+ years and everyone was striving hard to participate, to win ! There were faculty members (who anyhday would charge in lacs for consultancy assignemnts), there were FPM students (who would be the professors in some time to come), kids (the future), exchange students (who would fly off to their countries in few days). Almost all were very differnt people but had something in common. The spirit to fight, the spirit to participate and the spirit to win.
I can take myself for an example. I am one of those who HATE walking, leave alone running. So there was this race and one of the classmates were looking for someone to complete the team and I pitched in. I was'nt decided that I would be able to run and do justice to the team's confidence in me but I decided to go ahead and be a part of the team. And I left even myself surprised with the kinda effort I put in. I forgot everything, I wasnt concious of the girl I want to pataofy, I was'nt worried about my grades, future anything... All I was concerned with was running and putting in my best effort. The feeling can not be replicated. You have to do it to experience it. Sports brought out a hidden me. I always thought I can't concentrate on something, can't put in my best, would never be satisfied but when I was running, even thought I didnt win, I was happy, I could tell myself that I had put in the best effort and I knew that nesxt year, I would put in even harder effort and try to win.
It was a sort of enlightenment for me. (Wow am talking like Aasaram Bapu) :D. So the bottom line is that if someone can put in so much effort in sports and be motivated like anything, why can't people realize it themselves... Confusing thoughts I know but who said life was easy...
