Ok. So it”s been seven years since I graduated from undergrads. The yearning for writing hasn”t stopped. It”s not going stronger either. “Should I apply for Masters in Creative Writing?” The thought haunted me for a while. You see, education is like a discipline, a channel through which you can organize your thoughts effectively, and [...]
My best shot, I think. A thin man running, in deep thought. The old man next to him, frail, in juxtaposition with the running man. For a moment, it was like his future, or maybe the old man”s past, divided by the signal line crossing — this is his last run, he doesn”t want to [...]
It’s been a long silence on the blog. When you stop blogging, either you’re life is boring or there’s so much happening in your life. I couldn’t say more, but this year has been kick-ass so far. Lots of things happening. I’m going to fast forward to what happened last weekend where I was a [...]
I’ve had two jobs in the last seven years of my professional life. And my last job was in consulting for two and half years. Consulting is good, it’s freedom. It’s great work. It’s precise. And most importantly, you don’t have to report to any Boss. I couldn’t complain since I was working for another [...]
One of my mentors who I worked with earlier just started an independent Film Production Studio in Virginia. In the process of setting up a team, we shared our passions of writing and films and the like and I must say, it’s been a great ride in the last several months! Understanding film-making from the [...]
I’ve been thinking of blogging my home theater setup for quite sometime, here you go. If you have a hi-fi A/V Receiver and want to setup some sort of Audio Server based out of your mp3/aac collection, or even better ITunes Collection in your house, and possibly setup remote control for managing your music collection [...]
Oct 11 – midnight: Reached Madrid late at midnight and met Ines. Four and half years back, we were here. The smell of fresh memories vivid. Oct 12 – Went on a stroll to the familiar places around Madrid, I was pleasantly surprise that I could recollect so many buildings, gardens from my past visit. [...]
Oct 8 (morning): The random sights at the station: dirty, disorganized. Certainly the worst looking station in Europe so far. The people looked “different.” The hostel, Carpe Noctem was a large 3 B/R apt converted to fit around 20. Fresh shower and off to the “Buda” side of Budapest. In case you don’t know, Budapest [...]
5 Oct: 09:16am – I ran, and ran, and ran faster. I’ve missed trains and buses before, the last “closest” call, I can remember of, is the train from London — Leeds, when we were back from Paris, back in 2004. I missed that in 39 seconds. And this time, I saw the train, moving [...]
Oct 1, 9:45 pm : Reached the station. Trains were dirty, so was the platform. People looked “different”. Czech, athough in EU, doesn’t accept Euros, had to change the currency into Kronos. I got to my hostel — Czech Inn, perhaps the best looking hostel I’ve ever been. I got into my room, the only [...]
