hi! Long time no see!
As usual tons of work and I have this wonderful habit of keeping everything for the last minute...
My first internals are in progress now - which is why I finally found time to blog! ;-) Management in Engineering and Cryptography are the two subjects for this semester. Got my text books only a while back and I have absolutely no idea what is in either of these two subjects.
My college fest "anaadyanta" was held succesfully on 6th, 7th and 8th of April 2005. It was a great hit and saw a much better response than the previous year. More than 550 students from 28 colleges in Bangalore took part in the various events of the fest! It was great to be a part of Team Anaadyanta for the second time and I am sad that this will be my last fest since I graduate later this year. It has been a huge learning experience being a core committee member of the fest.
Along with some of my fellow Student Champs, I was awarded the Microsoft Student Ambassador Award at a function held at Hotel Rama. It feels nice to see our efforts being recognised by Microsoft. All 6 of us got cool Student Ambassador Kits and have our profiles listed on the Microsoft India Academia Site:
There was a secondhand books sale near my house and along with some of my friends, I "attacked" the place and found some great books and I walked away with a cool deal of 7 books for Rs. 270/-. That is an average price of about Rs. 38 per book!! Keep looking at my Recent Books section on the right to see which books I'm reading.
My technical seminar presentation date has been fixed as Monday - 18th April. My topic is XML Web Services and I need to submit a 40 page report latest by Saturday and a 30 minute power point presentation on Monday - so more last minute work for me.
In the middle of all this, I also managed to fall ill (I suspect - thanks to a curse of a certain "Un-Handled Exception"!) and was bed-ridden for two days.
All these distractions and my project work at perot (mon-thu all day) have reduced my time for the all important imagine Cup :-(
I seriously need to learn how to manage my time better. I really want to do a lot for IC - I even though of leaving Perot to concentrate only on IC, but unfortunately some wierd rule in VTU prevents me from doing that...

i am interested in books but lazy to go to the libary.
Do you get nervous when you have a presentation ?
Thanks for the wishes!
