I was born on August 17th, 1980 and was browsing to see what else happened on Aug 17th.  Here are a few things that matter to a lot of people.

The first Compact Discs were released to the public in Germany in 1982. 200 Billion CDs were sold since then!
Gabon gained Independence from France in 1960
Indonesia […]

… and I got Married!

Tuesday, September 12th, 2006

This August was a month for me to remember for many things. It all started with a trip to Manali - I had the faintest idea of what was in store for me after I returned from the trip. I came back in the early hours of 14th and by 15th everything was on […]

Note: All images are available in the gallery.  Sorry, could not add links to the thumbnails.

More than a month ago, from Aug 5th to Aug 13th, I went on a trek to Deo-Tibba base. The trek was good and it was the first time I went into the wild, away from the civilization. This […]

A Volleyball Match

Friday, April 28th, 2006

This happened a couple of months back in a match against one of the corporate teams.
Our opponents were 14 and we at 13. It was our serve and I knew that this one point would take the game to dues (game for 16). The serve was good, so good that the opponents did […]

Have I found what I love?

Thursday, June 23rd, 2005

Read the commencement address by Steve Jobs at the stanford university and kept thinking about what I loved and if I knew what I like? Well, am not sure if what I think I like is what I actually like. If I knew it, then I would probably have been one of Linus […]

LiveCD - Another productive weekend

Monday, January 17th, 2005

Its been quite a few weekends since I used a weekend productively…
Last thursday when I was thinking of making a LiveCD that can be used to demonstrate a product, I felt dissapointed that neither Knoppix nor Morphix meets my requirement. Slax was close, but still failed to meet my requirements. Now its my […]

Stuffed Toys - my new hobby

Monday, December 27th, 2004

Finally, after three weekends of planning, cutting and stitching I
managed finishing my first stuffed-toy, the TUX. Its now part of my
workplace.
Unfortunate for me, very few people are ready to believe that I made this. Of course mom helped me by stitching all the complicated curves, but It’s me who did the calculation of shape, […]
