Growing Old...

welll...i m growing old now... ;-) ...i had this feeling yesterday...something triggered this feeling ....i dont know what....i have sm years of my youth left..but then i realised that middle age and old age are a much larger part of our lives than the youth part...and still we give up so soon....in their middle/old age,most ppl start thinking that they know everything that is there to know...that they have experienced almost everything that life can offer....this actually changes their attitude to the "i've been there" attitude...they are no longer excited about life...this limits their growth....i remember once i read somewhere that the abitlity of a child to learn a new language is way too greater than an adult...this just shows the difference in the curiosity level of a child and an adult..the way children lead their lives is an example for all of us...the way they see each day as a new day with limitless possibilities....but as we grow old we lose this perspective and come to arrive at the conclusion that "we know everything"....so i think the best way to grow old is to stay young or keep the child in you alive....so that u keep learning and growing in every way...

Five Point Someone

I finally had a chance to read this book "Five Point Someone" by Chetan Bhagat...I had heard a lot about it...and i was expecting it to be an important book..but then i discovered its just a fun book...reading it gave me an idea of how badly one can screw up ones college years...since i was a sincere student during my college days..but then its a good book to read for those who reallly miss their college days..

starting a new phase....

now after completing my training,i have been put into a live project.the technology is GSM..platform is windows and language is java...its going good...these days we r just having some basic training about Java Swing and how to use some basic tools and IDE...the coding will start in October..java does not seem so bad...i have seen that ppl have a very negative approach abt java...especially if they r into C...but then i also didnt have any previous experience in java...i mostly knew C/C++...when i got this project,ppl gave me very bad reactions when they heard its in java..but now that i m in the project...i have come to see that java is easier than C...what with the numerous in-built functions it offers..and the IDE that we are using makes our task simpler still...it offers drag and drop capabiltiy for designing GUIs...moreover as far as design concept goes...i think OOP is anyday better than structured/modular programming approach..and java provides all that...


apart frm the technicalities ... i m enjoying myself here....i just love my comp...and its pretty comfy out here...
lets c how it gets when i get the coding thing started..then i will have the deadlines...

boring weekends...

this trend has been gng on 4 almost every weekend after i joined office...i always make 2 or 3 plans for the weekend....this invariably includes shopping...and of course going for a movie....but it seldom materialises...i always end up spending the whole weekend at home sleeping and eating...thts too bad...coz on every sunbday nite i feel like here office comes again and it never ends...i feel like i m in office 24 hours on the weekdays and then sleeping on the weekends...nothing happens to all the plans i make and i never manage to go shopping..and this actually make me realise that how much i m earning doesnt matter too much ... all the moolah keeps lying untouched in my account......what really matters is whether i enjoy the work i m doing...
