I tried skating for the first time and failed. I blame my shoes.

PS: It hurts a lot when you fall on the snow.

Party

This winter I cooked for more then 2 people for the very first time and results were not that good. I took this picture when everyone left just before washing the dishes.

Sometimes I take pictures with my mobile but then don’t do anything with them. So I thought why not upload on my blog.

Bullets

You can see two “WiFi Bullet” devices. I used them for the first time in a project. I have been told If we use them with antennas then these can cover at least 10KM.

How we read each other’s minds

Mostly I don’t criticize anyone because I believe they are not mature enough to make a decision (or I’m not mature enough to understand them) specially the people who talk/blog about politics. They think only they have mind and others are robots.

Watch the following Ted Talk to understand a little about decision making …

Rebecca Saxe ends her talk with this quote

” The fact remains that getting people right is not what living is all about anyway. It’s getting them wrong that is living, getting them wrong and wrong and wrong and then, on careful reconsideration, getting them wrong again. That’s how we know we are alive: we’re wrong. Maybe the best thing would be to forget being right or wrong about people and just go along for the ride. But if you can do that-well, lucky you.”

Life Status

9th July 2009 – an ordinary summer night

2AM: Summer Nights are mostly not dark in Sweden but today it’s.

It’s raining like crazy and I’m loving it. It reminds me of home but I guess Swedes do not really like rain (they like sun more!)

Sitting in my apartment all alone here in Stockholm.

I haven’t eaten my dinner yet thinking to fry chicken or something.

SVN server is down at the moment so I can’t really work.

about work well, I’m not really doing any serious work mostly wasting time and 1 or 2 hours of programming or related things

I have 3 web based projects in my mind on which I want to start work as soon as possible but this INTERNET wouldn’t let me work. so many other interesting things to do here.

I haven’t watched a single movie in last three months

Just noticed mostly I listen sad songs. I guess I need to shut down Spotify and start listening some Radio that plays happy songs

two and a half men

Listening “Kaminey” from the new Bollywood movie “Kaminey” on repeat. It’s not like I’m a BW fan. It’s not about BW it’s about Vishal B.

I would like to end this blog post with this clip from the movie “Trainspotting” Do watch!
