So how was my Birthday on 28th July

I will not say that I do not give special attention to my birthdays. Specially, I take some resolutions, some aims ...and, though resolutions do break ... but aims, interestingly always get accomplished(well my aims are not so heroic kinda). This time, I planned to celebrate my birthday myself. Actually, my brother who stays with me, was at home (my hometown) and my birthday was on Saturday this time, so I planned something new for my own goodness.
The first thing that came to my mind was to release my project "Tarang", which is one of my three personal, open source projects that I have planned to work on for rest of my life. Well "Tarang" is quite a bit technical at this stage, and at present it will be comprehensive to developers only. I chose 12O'clock, (the usual birthday bashing time) for its release. And yes, finally I released it ... I really felt nice at that moment --- it was not that I have submitted it at BOOST, or I have completely released it in public, ... neither I have done some really extreme geeky thing ... nevertheless I enjoyed the moment. One cause was obvious --- "Tarang came on some surface", and other cause was --- it was quite a moment for a person who worked so hard on it, that his evenings, and weekends were well defined, quite mechanical for almost 6 months (even more). And you know, when you work like this, there are good enough chances that you will keep loosing friends. Those who say that there are people who do understand, have very weak micro level analytical skill!
I was waiting for phone calls by 12 ... Interestingly none came ... my parents thought I would be sleeping, my sister Nandi was ill ... But as the morning started I got lot of phone calls. Though all of the calls that I got, were not very charming kind ... and I also answered in a very formal sense ... thank you ... great, you have remembered me ... and so on ... As usual ... I took it as a reality ... Most usually, any friendship has an interesting attribute --- people do not want you to be much socially conscious, they want to be in a closed system with you. If you are describing a bigger canvas, of which they may not be a part, of which they do not have prolonged benefits, there are good chances that they will abandon you. Please do not analyze these lines keeping usual meaning of canvas, benefits, etc. However, if you have time, keep thinking.
Cook came in morning. After that, I went to bank. Borrowed some amount ... I waited whole evening, I thought I may have to spend some money over party ...

Is Education becoming too costly ... ?

Thus, I am back to Bangalore . It was (as should be) very nice and refreshing Home going, also the social thinker within me was kept alive (in silent mode) and lot a many social fabrics were unthreading themselves in my imagination. I do not have wide study of Social constructs, neither I have the chance to participate in any relevant discussion, so I am not going to make any assertion, rather it will be a compilation. Of the many a things that touched my mind set during this journey, education was one of them. Particularly the cost of a "good" education can be any thing these days. Also, degrees are easily available for those who have money. This essentially means, you can buy engineering, medical, business management and many other degrees. Dilution of Courses and Examination -- The standard 10 th and 12 th examination ( CBSE ) has become lot easier. I have heard of Sample Papers being distributed among students, in Kendriya Vidyalaya (they conduct pre -exam tests usi

Praying for "love"

Dear Love, I am sitting beside you. I know you are ill for several days. Your health looks miserable and many a times you were not able to respond. I have been busy in my work, and could not take care of yours. I am feeling really bad and guilty for my behavior. I remember those moments when we were talking, laughing and enjoying every moment of our life. Watching your pale face I am feeling sad and disheartened... It was almost two years back when we met. I came to this place ( IIITb ) alone, with none of my old friends with me. No one was here with whom I could talk, share my thoughts and was feeling as if I am in desert. True, it is that there were folks around me, but effectively, even then, life was dry and relentless. In those dark moments I met you. Initially you were unresponsive in many contexts, but gradually I came to know lot of things about you. Believe me, at the very first sight I got enchanted to you. You were the real fashionista, always wearing in black embroideries c
