Farewell to my old CRT TV :*

Farewell to my old CRT TV :*
Its time to blog on a thing , which stood with me making me laugh and cry and thing ,
and even sleep on times .
I remember watching black and white TV at my grandfather's place.
I still remember the Black Solidaire tv , with 10 channel keys .
Infact We never got a chance to use the 10 keys as all we had was just 2 channels -
DD1 and DD2 :)  Those were good . Myself and sister used to run from school ,
not to miss the Alladin cartoon they put in DD1 by 4.00PM .
Its on weekends we get to watch a movie in DD1 .
We hardly had some serials in DD1 , and those were really classic .
Not to mention the rush and hush , we had a great time with the TV.





Then came the Cable !!
Lots of channels , all time programs .
Lots to choose from ...
You dont need to run anymore to watch a cartoon program :)
You have channels dedicated for Cartoons , and channelds dedicated for films :)
DD1 and DD2 was no more a favourite ..
Then time came to buy the new BPL tv, with remote :p
Now we have cable to watch many channels and a remote in hand to sit and change the world
Thats cool . Someone is the operator and others just say , Next Next Next :)
From thrills to cheap adds, we sat together a lot of years in front of that box,
and time came after 10 years , that it started breathing its last breath ,
and we had the choice to choose from LCD to LED :)
Then i went to the shop, and found a pretty cool AKAI LED .
Now we still have the BPL . It works some how ...
Over the time , one thing we found missing ...
Sitting together and watching programs ...
When there were only two channels , the entire family sits together
and watchwed a program .
Now that we have many to choose from , we have choices.
Dad watching news channels , mom watching serials ,
sister watching music channels and me watching good same cartoons and Movies :p
With direct link to AV , we dont even need to walk to change the modes.
Life has changed , and so do we .

An old hobby :)

This is been pulled back . Today in my office , after almost two years gap, there it comes again !!

Photography competition !
I remember days when i was searching out for beautiful locations for Shoot !!
Early mornings and late nights , playing the shutter sppeds and lights !

That was long time back , when i was free , waiting for my first job , with almost 8 months gap after my graduation !! - Oh no ... It had nothing to do with me . It was a college placement and i have nothing to do with this ! It was an absolute break ! An absolute offer from GOD !

I learned some animation , some photography , and some music this time ....
Went for guitar classes, roamed around with camera to click anything that moves to anything that never moves :)  Bunked animation classes to go for new movies released , and it was a lot of fun ..

As i got stuck with my works and Photography never been my passion , but just a time passing hobby , i just stopped clicking ... Just like that !!

Now that after years , these competions reminds me of those days and i thought of posting some of my snaps which i took those days :)

Are we seeing any secure future here ??????

Are will living in a poisonous world ?
Its the new Facebook and Twitting Era !
Sitting at the comfort of our chair, we know whats happening around the people we want to know !!

What is the so much hype about this ?
Well lets re-wind a little ...
I know how my parents used to highlight their school days
and compare it with our days .
They can never be convinced of the beauty of the present !!
Our Internet, technology development , all are the reason .
Well .... to know what we missed , we really need to feel what we had !!
Recently i saw a post in one of my friend's facebook Wall, a very strange post!!
I am not going to retype what i read over there ... It was sooo strange that ,
when i checked his wall later after one day , his post is removed!!
The point is a person's stupidity will be realised later and he might remove it.
But this era has captured it . It captures every moment .
By the time you realise your stupidity , it would have been viewed by many !!
Mobiles are studded with 10 and 15 MP Cameras !!
Along with high speed Internet connections handy with everyone!!
Internet accessible from almost all devices !!

Years back,When people say something stupid , or do something stupid,
it stays maximum within a limited number of people .
But now the case is different !

Are we seeing any secure future here or a rather poisonous years ahead ,
with an eagle eye watching our moves daily ?

One day even Taj Mahal and other wonders will be digged out !!

We are digging out the Mayan remains and having fun!!
Yippee.... there is some skeleton . May be a Mayan King ?
Or Queen or at least a Mayan Servant ~!
Who knows , may be one day people will dig out Taj Mahal and say ...
Wow ... Good construction . This is made of Marble . Good ...
Life has changed a lot . One thing is clear .
We might be far from the Dinosaurs period ,
but not too far from the humans ,
but still we find gaps and doubts of how many places are hidden beneath the land and sea!!
How many civilisation vanished ?!!
How this gap was formed ?
What happened ?
Why even the Mayans who are really the best as claimed in reading the signs of nature
and following calendars which can detect the changes in the nature and the solar system ,
cant find the way to escape their death of the entire civilisation ?

Nature is great . It can create as well as destroy.
It was natures idea to create Mayan like many civilizations and make them live for some time ,
and then destroy them completely !!
Nature dint want us to dig and find it !!
But we did it .
So do the coming civilisations !!
So my thought is , why not the next generation digs out our culture one day
One day even Taj Mahal and other wonders will be digged out !!

If we want to save anything, we first need to truly appreciate it

7 wonders of the world !! If we want to save anything, we first need to truly appreciate it

I have been going through this just like that a striking interest felt in the 7 wonders of the world !
How this is decided !! who decides this ? And stuffs like that !!
This is the website which gives a lot of information on this topic :
http://www.new7wonders.com/en/the_whole_world_of_new7wonders/about_new7wonders/mission_statement_new7wonders_of_nature/

The story goes like this :
Need to thank an Athens Engineer who came up with a list of 7 places in the world which he needs to travel and see ....
that's how this number 7  comes into action !!
Scientifically this number "7" is a great number .
This is according to the scientists, a number of things which a human brain can
remember as the number of things to be kept as remembering .

If we want to save anything, we first need to truly appreciate it!!
Lets check the present 7 wonders of the world
The Pyramid at Chichén Itzá
Christ Redeemer
The Roman Colosseum
The Great Wall of China
The Taj Mahal
Petra
Machu Picchu


and the best part is the there is a new list coming up !!
The 7 wonders of the nature's official declaration is going to happen on 11.11.2011.

Now that he is dead........

Finally News Channels have a real BREAKING NEWS !!
"Ravana was killed by Raman"    Oops ... sorry ... thats an old news .

Osama was killed by Obama ... Hey, this sounds cool.
In fact just a letter is different !

World is fighting against Terror !


What happens when the Founder of an institution dies ?
Institution is closed down ?
Well the answer depends on many factors :

But its a sure "NO", when the founder has foreseen his death and planned everything ,
and made sure steps for running the institution even after his death !!

So ... now that he is dead ..... what next ?

Wait a min ....
Well how many times will you kill someone .
Is this an old news again ? :p

Lets hope the struggle for fighting the terror continues ...
Lets save the world .

Long live Peace ....

World ending Dream .

World ending Dream .
I know ... too much of movies , can make you a little creative.
But it was a little sentiments added to this thrill when i saw this horrified dream.
Yesterday i saw this dream :
Its pitch dark . We all have closed all the doors and windows.
Its actually in the morning 11.30 , but no electricity and the sky is dark .
Nothing is working . No mobile phones , no lights , no nothing ...
We know in some time the earth is going to crush and we all die.
I am in my home with my sister and parents.
Suddenly this huge rush of sounds of rocks crushing , water falls,
and its followed the same for about 15 minutes.
Thats it ...
I can see some light falling through the window. The glass is broken and i can see
a long clear vision , no buildings , nothing .
I saw around ... Parents and sister is alive.
I am alive to see them alive. Its over . We have survived this.





I opened the door and i see crushed buildings and dead people .
First thought was "Where is my girlfriend now , and how is she now ? "
Its just few kilometers from my house (In dream its just few kilometers. I real i need
to travel a day to meet her :)  ). I run to check if she is fine .
I saw her house intact . Happy . Signs of hope flushes my scared off heart.
Thug Thug . I knock the door . (Remember ? No electricity there :) )
Her dad opens the door . And says . "She is no more . Dont come here ,  Bye".
Slammm........ The door closes in front .
Actually the door of my Life closes in front of me .
I felt i am dead that moment.
Cried ....
Cried and ...
Cried ..
I am a guy who hear my heart before my brain .
Suddenly my brain told "Why would her dad have no feelings over her dead girl?"
"Why would he just say something like that"
I jumped up, and started climbing up the house to check out her room.
The pipe i used to climb is now broken :(
I found some cracks here and there and climbed all the way up .
THERE SHE IS !!!!!!!!!!!! Weeping over there in the corner of the room , like a baby :)

It was a trick played by a daughter's dad to avoid me .
God !!!! World End can also turn up to be good for some people .

We saw each other .
She was having the same happy and shocking feel seeing me .
(I understood , she was also shocked to her from her dad , that i am dead , LOL )
We got married and lived happily for ever :)


Ok . Now i woke up . Dream is over. Came back to reality :)
2012 is yet to come and we still are yet to get married :(

Scared ... Isnt it ?
