Chronicles of Gautam

In sharp contrast to what I have written below(in the last post),right now not only can I access blogger,I can access it very quickly.Yipee!!:))You can read all about how this transformation took place in my new blog at this link here Though now I can use blogger,I won't.I guess its no use looking back:P

Ok,so first things first-its official,I have decided to dump blogger.The damn thing simply refuses to open in the hostel rooms.What am I supposed to do then?Go to the IPC at 2 oclock in night(for some reason the only time of the day when my mind generates ideas)??.But let me be clear.Its NOT that I DONT like Blogger.Its just that it is not useful to me anymore.I can't read my brothers blog.I can't write my own blog.I can't read any blog on blogger.And the whole blame goes to the net connection.It seems some dislike towards sites of Google.. Gmail.Orkut.Blogger.Is it because they are so damn popular.Must be. Am switching to wordpress. I have slept 10 hours since the last 48 hours.Pretty low by my standards.around one and a half months since I haven't been home,but it doesn't feel like it.Thats the beauty of BITS.I feel home here.Saw 'A beautiful mind' the other day.One of the best movies I have seen.Before sunrise and Before sunset w...

This post has come after a pretty long time without a change in the subject that the previous four posts pertain to,but considering what a lazy bumass(whatever that means!) I am,I can safely assume that the people reading this will excuse me.Actually I had initially thought that I would put the photos at one time but the IPC is so wonderful that it compels you to change your ideas.And thus the blog remained until today- unchanged,untouched(except for a comment or two by my dear sidey,and yes Neha too).So enjoy the animals.. Jackal..looks surprisingly like a dog,doesn't it? Don't know what these birds are,but they were very cute and they momentarily perched on our palms to take away the titbits which we offered them.No fear at all of humans! This is a nilgai for those who don't know(Its supposed to be blue or something but this was a female and hence isn't-thats what the guide said). Cute antelopes. And deers-chittals to be more precise..

Work of Art! Dinner at hotel just outside the sanctuary gates And We Finally enter the park(in open jeeps-its not allowed to step out of the jeeps).(Well,I must confess..we had to get out at one point of time due to unavoidable circumstances.)

These are some photos near the town of Alwar..where we had stoped to enjoy the view.There were lots of Bandar-log around(excluding us of course)and turtles in river.And the majestic Kingfisher too!!Unfortunately I cant upload all the FOUR HUNDRED snaps that we took on our trip.The rocks where we are all sitting are opposite the river with the road in between. Some of my friends Junta Yo kingfisher! The River

This weekend I had gone with my wingies to Sariska national park.For those of whom haven't heard of this place,its between two of its more famous cousins-Bharatpur Bird Sanctuary towards the north and Ranthambore Tiger reserve to the south.It was one of the most enjoyable weekends that I have spent after coming to BITS.A weekend to sac out(relax), and have gen fun with mainly wingies and pseudo wingies.They say that a picture is worth a thousand words and hence I am devoting the next few posts to photos only.Mind you,NONE of them are edited! On the way to Sariska... Tunnel in the mountains..Hurray!! There are a lot many more photos..Just wait and watch...

So finally I have decided to write something in my long stagnant blog.Was somewhat busy during the past few days because of APOGEE(A Professions Oriented Gathering Over Educational Experience)-the technical festival of BITS Pilani held during 21st to 25th March. We had initially started out to conduct a Workshop.And the topic was "Free space Optics" which was chosen by my dear friend Rishi Mathur.(http://araiessechai.blogspot.com).To make it more impressive we tried to make a working model which worked 2 days before Apogee and the seniors were so happy that instead of putting our work in the 'workshop' category they put it in the 'project' category.And surprises of surprises!Our "project" made it into the top 5 in the "best concept" slot in the division which contained Comp sci,instru,EEE and infosys.That was a real stunner so to say.On the other hand it says something sad about APOGEE,in fact,BITS in general-that the level of Apogee ...
