It has come with

Intel Centriono Duo core 2 Processor

1 GB RAM

DVD Recordable (Dual Layer)

15.4" screen

Original Win XP OS loaded

Fingerprint authentication

100 GB HDD etc etc. ( to be frank, I dont know rest of the technicalities myself!)

Its performance is good & am really enjoying the computing experience more than ever!

Daffodils!


Sometimes some poetic verses that one reads in childhood keep coming back, start meaning alot & remain special for the entire life!

"Daffodils" by William Wordsworth is one such poem that I read in primary classes but it still holds very special to me!


"Daffodils" (1804)


I WANDER'D lonely as a cloud
That floats on high o'er vales and hills,

When all at once I saw a crowd,
A host, of golden daffodils;

Beside the lake, beneath the trees,
Fluttering and dancing in the breeze.

Continuous as the stars that shine
And twinkle on the Milky Way,

They stretch'd in never-ending line
Along the margin of a bay:

Ten thousand saw I at a glance,
Tossing their heads in sprightly dance.

The waves beside them danced; but they
Out-did the sparkling waves in glee:

A poet could not but be gay,
In such a jocund company:

I gazed -- and gazed -- but little thought
What wealth the show to me had brought:

For oft, when on my couch I lie
In vacant or in pensive mood,

They flash upon that inward eye
Which is the bliss of solitude;

And then my heart with pleasure fills,
And dances with the daffodils.


By William Wordsworth (1770-1850).

Howdy!

This post comes exactly after my seventh semester practicals have ended! Though the exams weren't that gratifying this time ( I'm really scared about th result, to be very frank), but am happy about the fact that now I am left to do things that had been pilling on for a while now. My MBA preparation had come to a halt because of the end semester exams, so I propose to resume that first of all. I didnt quite score well in the CAT this time, which calls for another round of preparations now... though am really confused between going for a job (If atall I land up with one ;)..) or to again try for MBA (with full spirits this time!)
Soumya has been away from home since a year & a half and I really feel the void. She surely is very important for me to "be-myself" all the time! And I quite realise it now... probably more because of the fact that we're in Noida now, I have no colony friends here...Nikhil too is good 30 kms away & I just find myself shunting between Soumya & Nikhil on phone!!
But at the same time I can't thank God more for making Nikhil come into my life! He surely has become my "teddy bear" whom I continually love, punch, adore, hit & cuddle all the times.

Well, now that I have some time to relax form college, my ageda for the next 15 days:
~To study for the FMS exam.
~ To get my driving license made so that I can drive without annoying papa (th cops too :p)
~ Join a Gym.
~ Read 'The Fountainhead' : have been eying it for quite a while now.

Rest is all left to be still explored. lets see where do I head for this year...! There are many options that I can consider at this point in time, all lead to a successful career, all thats required is some labour & commitment.. that I promise to put in.
In the meanwhile, there's a small even to be written about... We went for the New Year's Party to a disc 'Staying Alive' in Gurgaon & I taught Nikhil to dance! I myself never dance in parties with friends, but with Nikhil, am always teaching him to dance!!! He has definitely been "tailor-made" for me by someone up there... I feel so free, so happy & so complete with him! Now both of us are looking forward to go to Elevates again (we'll get th passes!) it surely has been the best disc that we've been to. The music is real good & th ambience is reasonably romantic.
I pray to God for blessing Nikhil & I with courage for striving for whatever we've been aiming for, all this while & thank him for giving me the good moments!!

I'll write again as soon as I get something to pen & opine about...!

The Moon!
