Personal loss

Jagjit Singh is no more physically. Many artists have demised but today it seems a personal loss. This is first time that I am so bothered about a celebrities demise. I guess its the attachment for him in the sad/down moments. He glorified the sadness, made post-breakup and other sad situations musically beautiful. This post is not an obituary or tribute. This is about the connection that people [do not read fans] who has heard and understood ghazals have for him. He was the reason for my understanding of poetry

tu mujhko aur main tujhko samjhaun kya, dil deewana tera bhi hai mera bhi.

Lyrically rich is term that i associate with this music, with due to thanks to awesome poets and lyricist like Gulzar sahab, Javed Akhtar and other lesser known ones. The tappe he sang with his wife Chitra ji are super fun. Hey Ram is much serene and devotional. Like others he sang poems of Ghalib, Kabir and Meer. I came to know about these people by his ghazals. Sarfarosh's "hoshwalon ko khabar" has cult following as "pehla nasha", by this i mean almost everyone around like these songs. I started listening to him since school days, first bought his album Saher. After listening to this album backtracked all his non-film music. Feeling sad right now[ yes, everyone is saying it], cant help it. Would just keep on listening his ghazals and songs. Thats it.

Hard time for symbian and nokia fans :(

Hey all..
In the timeline of a nokia + symbian fanboy’s life, these last 2 years have been pretty tough. Android and iOS are trending everywhere. pheww.. they are soaking up all the lime light. None of the Symbian OS updates have been fruitful for nokia in quite some time. Sony and Motorola have jumped on the Android wagon [and that’s good], after all android is free, open source [not to say pretty cool too].
But what went wrong for nokia.. thought a lot about it and i concluded- HARDWARE is the issue. they need to put some heavy hardware to boost up the things alongwith a NEAT OS [what was meego anyways ;)]. Unlike samsung’s BADA OS, what a waste of good h/w [1Ghz processor, Good graphics engine and shitty OS].
Nokia is still banking on Symbian, after all other companies have left interest in it. Last one was Symbian 3 [OCT 2010] and its still kicked about making it better. Nokia is going to make some announcement on 12th of April about Symbian.
Lets see if it something worthy !!

Advance Computer Training School, PUNE = bliss :)

It's been a long time since i have written anything. so this piece better be good.
past 6 months were a roll. resigning from Hcl bpo - Joining ACTS,CDAC [turning point of life].
CDAC is a wonderful organization. I'm all praise for it. Being a GOVERNMENT body under ministry of IT, it works very efficiently.
It redefined me technically, learned and loved many technologies. I met real geeks- guys who talk in programming languages. without a doubt i was the least studying student on first floor of sheetal hostel. A bit nostalgic at the moment- made some good friends [ sushant, mama, tameem, kiran, babul, vivek, mohit n deepanshu ] and a bonus nigga sistaa too. ha ha :)
It's one of those times when you feel thankful to everyone around.
highlights : counter strike session in ACTS lab, sheetal hostel, 24 hrs computer lab, 200 gb movies, feb 2010-aug 2010 pune, mahabaleshwar, first month in manu's room[ shivaji nagar], 24 bean cafe's noble aunt and her daughter ;)

pune

The big things n then small nothings.

Recently started following _robin_sharma on twitter. He tweeted a good line. "The way you do the little things is the way you'll do the big things. Everything matters." quite impressive and thoughtful. I am going to apply it. Its the base of all the actions. Whatever you do give your best shot. The blend of different thing that runs in our mind everytime is the enemy. We have to shoot everything from point blank. Vacate all other things from your mind when doing any task. It seems like i am goin off multitasking but thats what i am goin to do now. Well regarding my rona-dhona for my last friendship or my first brush with a girl is over now but the thought still irks me that it would have been better if she was still here. Oh my god.. This is what called aftereffects. I am ending this now. I am amazed. Bye.

2 days long bliss

Hey all. Here i am super recharged. I am on a 3 day off from work. Attending a wedding n it has been a wonderful time yet. Right now i am able to find solace amidst of all wedding chaos. Met a good friend after long time. Befriended with 2 children here. A child's affection for you is the purest thing you can earn they dont need any favour or anything. Children's purity always inspires me. Listening to Ambar by raghu dixit. I still feel sometimes that girl that has just gone from my workplace team, if she would have stayed for some more time i would have hit the record for best friendship in limited time :) Well jokes apart it was going on the right track. Coming sunday is my CAT exam. Haven't prepared a dime for it yet. Well signing off.

You ppl have gr8 time. C ya.

Bugs in my mind

It was today when i came to know how haunting is the siren of ambulance is. Just don want to elborate it. My friends father is sick and i cant do anything about it. I have just slept for 4 hrs today. Again same question takes u turn and comes back to me.. Why god doesnt treat everyone equally? Plus my friends have become mere colleagues these days. This all feels too sick for a person like me.. Who is fond of his friends.. Maybe god is indicating me.. these new relationships are temporary. But i wont let em go like this. Lets see what happens and if it turns in my favour then i will surely thank you God:)
