Digerati

UI finally bothered me enough to get me to follow this tag. Basically you have to-
1. Go to Dictionary.com and find out the word of the day.2. Using Google search for images, find a picture of this word that strikes you the most.3. Write a ten line riff such that the meaning of the word is brought out within the first five lines.4. Tag three unsuspecting souls.

Digerati -Persons knowledgeable about computers and technology

Fitting, considering I’m a bit of a geek. As for the picture…




And the riff (I'm crossing my fingers for this one)-

Jock says:
Digerati Pimply Smartie!!!
Lord of the geeks,
Bespectacled computer freaks.
Never touched a girl,
Dude, you make me wanna hurl!
Digerati Pimply Smartie!!!

Geek replies:
Man! Maybe we the nerd,
But u the real turd,
Wanna know what’s funny?
Dude, we got all the money!

Home Sweet Home

The other day I was riding in a car down the bypass, with my cousin’s husband. DD-da is a very successful computer engineer and is currently living in Hyderabad, though he’s basically settled in Boston. He’s relatively young and that’s why I like addafying with him. When I asked him whether he wanted to stay on in Hyderabad he gave me an odd reply. A reply which I found (rather inexplicably) that I could relate to. He said ‘I can picture myself dying in say…Boston or Calcutta…but I don’t see myself dying in Hyderabad.’

Is that what we mean by home? A place where we would be comfortable dying? When I thought about it seemed right. I personally would like to die in the house where I presently stay. Maybe that’s why they say there’s no place like home.

Notun Feeling

My results are out. I remember during our semesters a friend came up to me after a particularly gruelling exam and said —‘jaanis?aamar notun  feeling hochhe…ei porikhhata mone hochhe paash korbo’. At that time we howled in laughter (albeit very klanto haashi). Now that my results are out I kinda have the same feeling…

What the hell?
