Just a short note to say that I am alive (atleast for now).
Life here is hectic and we have been constantly getting only 4-5 hours of sleep every night… can be a pain in lectures…
I’ll try making a detailed post sometime soon.
As of now my datacard is disabled so I can’t get online in the [...]

After two travelling days in Goa, we didn’t have any plans for the third day and so decided to take the day off and recuperate.
We spent the whole morning and afternoon at home, though Crispin and Ruth did pay a visit to the fields which Marise and me visited later.
You must note that I am [...]

Two comics that will brighten up your day… courtesy XKCD and XKCD.

The first gives you a perfect example of overworked electronics engineers and the second is for all of you online!

It was waiting to happen and it has.
Regular readers would have read a few rants about my internet connection.
I have a “broadband” connection with Exatt.
It works using PPPOE and am assigned a dynamic IP everytime I login.
That is fine, but of late I have been noticing that the IP Addresses are all blacklisted in Spam [...]

Update: The internet connection was still down as of yesterday and as of today my plan is expired. I may get it renewed on Saturday.
My internet was down yesterday. This time power failure of my overhead switch. Have no clue when it will be online again.
Will upload the pictures once I can get my home [...]

I’m really pissed off once again with my internet connection.
It has been down since Friday. Guess as usual once monsoon has done the necessary damage?
And as usual no better option. Hoping that they finally get their act together and get the damn connection up and running!

Am home early and typing this entry once again because EXATT SUCKS!
As I mentioned earlier, I began Sunday by waking nice and late at 10.30am.
Went over to Melody’s house to help her mom. She needed some data to be restored to her Sony Ericsson P910i. What I expected to be easy, turned out to be [...]

I’ve been really irritated these past few days.
Not just one thing in particular but a lot of things combined. For one my net keeps conking off every night. I thought the shift to Exatt would have helped, but seems far from it
Next, I found out that I forgot my bag and tiffin box in [...]
