WIBU: What I’ve been upto ;)

April 25, 2009 by Mohammed Ameen

I know, its been a long long time, so he’re’s what i’ve been doing in all that time,

Became a Pro COD4 player ( a man can dream, can’t he? =P ) with the online alias – aMjAZz  & joined a clan STARR which just recently bought a COD4 HC cracked server @ 38.105.81.73:28960.  Founding member of the LAN  Chennai clan CONS, which comprises of my best buddies! =D

Numerous trips to Blur (LOVE that place ;P )

Made tons of friends on Xfire. ;)

Made a few trips to the beach.

Sathyam Cinemas – Fast & Furious, Transporter 3, Dev D, etc =)

Cedar’s — Awesome place, had tons of fun with ma best buddies! ;)

Cleared TOC in Re-val! ;)

Re-discovered Snow Patrol.

Dumb – C Pro! (muhahahahhaha) *not quite* =( But nevertheless, won a few of  ‘em =)

Part of the Earth Defense Force (The Final Defense battalion of humans against Aliens, Dinosaurs, Kim Jong-II, Osama Bin laden, Rick Astley, Linsday Lohan, White Martians, etc)

Note: If your wondering why I’ve specified the Martians is cause they don’t count as Aliens, cause The Martians, J’onn J’onzz  & Roh Kar visited earth and concluded that we were all one and the same. Hence, the then Commander of the Earth forces Salah Ibn Nasri conceeded that Martians will no longer be considered to be Aliens.

Working on a work of fiction, about an expat Indian. More on that later. =)

Started to use duplicate cartridges for ma printer, print quality = decent, worth the price I pay for. All 4 cartridges at MRP340 as opposed to 1 original cartridge @ MRP450!.. Which is daylight robbery!. :@

Sported a Mohawk!.. ;)

Seeding ma heart out! I’d have seeded nearly 10-15 TB by now!.. Proud to be a Pirate! *aargh*

Note: Just to make things clear, I do buy things which deserve to be bought, I just pirate stuff that isn’t accessible in India. =)    I’m a Good Pirate ! ;)

Gave the Principal the MIDDLE  FINGER! (Ofcourse, Behind his back ;P )

Got my mobile serviced!.. Damn, dealing with these service people is just so painful!!

Enjoyed Adebayor’s Goal !

Rooting for Arsenal for the UEFA Cup!.. =) (I’m an anti-Man U footie fan, But I respect Christiano Ronaldo & Rooney)

Started to twitter as of now!..

Thats just a slice of  What I’ve done . Hope you’ve been good too, have fun!.. =)

Peace Out!.. =)

Back on track..

May 30, 2008 by Mohammed Ameen

After being depressed for a while, I seriously tried getting out of it.. Being melancholic feels good for a while, after that starts to drain your life force out.. (sorta like “Extra Damage” vials which deal heavy damage but drain your life source).. So, I’d been reading a lot.. Trying to get outta this manic depression and finally, my uncle came from the US.. Sorta like Santa Claus :D ..(Abt that later!!).. But that didn’t get me outta the depression too..

Finally, a miracle happened.. I’m outta it now.. Feeling so good and positive.. I’m like “Look on d brighter side of that” kinda person.. And yeah, been listening to Yves Larock – Rise Up.. I really did rise up.. Hope, I’m back on track and start getting my Holiday checklist done soon.. :D :D :D ..

Be Happy folks.. You get to live just once, live it to d fullest.. :D :D

Being Melancholic..

May 25, 2008 by Mohammed Ameen

Why does it have to be so hard to get what we want?.. Why does life strike you down so hard when you’re just about to start enjoying life.. Why do people have to resort to lies and deception? Why does the world around me change? Why am I the same person that I’ve been all along? Why do people change? Why do I want to linger in the past? Why do I remember even the smallest details of things which happened years ago? Why cant I move on? Is it because I want to relive those good old memories. Why do I listen to all those old songs, is it because I want to hold on to those memories so badly? Why are we just unable to make new memories? Why do our dreams have to be crushed so hard? So, that we cant even pick up the pieces and move on?

Well, I would just go joking about that the RAM was full so no new data could be stored :P .. And say that I’m listening to all those old songs cause I just didn’t update my music collection :P .. But being melancholic ain’t a easy job.. Time Out!

Back from my Hiatus.. or Exam experiences!

May 24, 2008 by Mohammed Ameen

Well, I’d not blogged for a while now.. Had those big-ass Anna Univ Sem Exams.. I didn’t do well in the exams either.. Thanks to my mental state at that time.. I had become this creature who literally refused to do any hard work at all.. So, I pretty much hope that I should atleast clear all the papers, which seems a lil’ far-feched.. But, hey.. Nothing wrong in Hoping, right? =P

I did miss out a lot from the Cyberworld. But nevertheless, the g33k in me somehow did actually help me in my Studies.. Woah! It was a great ride though.. Studying over the phone, getting up at obscure hours.. Using the “Buddy System” to its fullest.. Irritating them “FRUITS”.. Sending them long “Text’s” wishing ur friends Good luck and stuff, Thinking that you’ve wasted a lot of time, and dreading over the time wasted.. Lots of Fine memories, a few bad ones too.. But hey, whats life with out a few bad fries? :P .. Hope you all cherished
those moments..

Btw, I actually made a gr8 text before the last exam.. So here goes..

Tomorrow is de last exam of this dreaded semester.. Hope you enjoyed it.. Because, the Journey is more important than the destination.. With this half of our college lives have come to an end.. We’ve all gained and lost a lot. Lots of pleasant memories to to cherish, a few bad ones to be forgoten.. As they say, take life as it comes.. And thanks a lot for being with me when I needed you the most.. Well, I know that you tried!! Anyways, i’ll always be there for you. Lets face tomorrows final battle with renewed rigour and do our best, for we’re warriors in this battle, and we shall strive to emerge victorious.. All the best.. Take Care.

Well, that was my “awe-inspiring” text about.. Hope, it got my friends all pumped up to study.. But I didn’t even bother to take the book :P .. Lets Hope that I pass.. God Willing, I should.. Anyways Folks.. “Happy Holidays”..

A day of Errors..

April 5, 2008 by Mohammed Ameen

The Mighty 404

Well, yesterday was a day most would’nt have even recognized.. Well, everybody’s lives doesn’t actually revolve around computers and stuff.. But, mine surely does :) ..

Well for the under-privileged and the uninformed it was 4.04. Get it? Well, some would’ve understood but some would’nt have.. So, it was “4.04“, an error code, which we geeks, nerds, and pretty much everybody connects with..

Apart from the tech-jargon, we reflect upon it as a day we look back at most of the errors which we may have done and reflect upon it.. We all have lost something we wanted soo badly.. But then what does life give back to you? An Error 404“..

Yes, we geeks do “philosophize”.. :P

Why does life have to be soo fucking complex??

March 27, 2008 by Mohammed Ameen

“Why does life have to be soo fucking complicated, Cant it be just straight-forward? Why do we have to go around all those up and downs, all that mistrust and slander and what not? Cant life be as simple as it sounds??”

Well you’d be probably be wondering about what I’ve said over here.. Well, thats exactly what is running through my mind right now.. Why? Why would I be pondering over such a deep thought rather than about say – The ASUS Eee PC desktop, or the latest album from Moby?

‘Cause, I’ve been a victim of slander and that too at the hands of a person whom I considered to my friend.. And notwithstanding that, apart from the fact that he had made stuff totally up, by loosely connecting a few of my words with numerous additions, subtractions, etc..

And it seems he had to do that to save his own skin.. What am I? His personal poultry animal?.. And the worst part was that he totally had my reputation as a good person totally blown away.. You know what most people think about me now as – “A weirdo”, I mean WTF!!?? Are you Shitting me? I’m like just doing my work and some crap-head makes me a total scapegoat for his personal “social-status“??.. and goes about gossiping about some crappy fucking theory around.. I mean, did I fucking ask for this?. Do, I even deserve this crap to be thrown at me?

Well, as a matter of fact I don’t. This probably ain’t gonna be the last handful of Bull Crap that’s gonna be thrown at me.. So, I’ve gotta become pretty much accustomed with it.. I hope this serves as a lesson for myself and maybe i’d be mindful enough to avoid these people in my life from here on..

The Advent of the Testing Times…

March 20, 2008 by Mohammed Ameen

Well as you guys probably know, there are some phases through which every person goes through in his/her life.. These times are reffered to as “Testing Times“..

Well, I’m about to enter into that phase as well, I mean literally! As in, we’re going to face our Semester Examinations..

The Submission of records, assignments, etc.. All the fuss about internal marks and stuff. Its gonna be Iwo Jima all over again.. Those dull dusks and reminiscing about all the time wasted.. All those Guilt-ridden evenings, and all those Remorseful Mornings..

What we hope for is to be able to fast forward through this part of our life, but as much as it sounds tempting.. We eventually have to give in to our future and have to pass through one of life’s tougher times.. But, then all my memories state otherwise.. Reflecting back on my memories, I actually seem to the enjoy the trials and tribulations one faces during these testing times.. They tend to be one of the most memorable ones ever!

As much as this is true, I hope that it ends up as a delicate memory rather than a harsh reminder of all the times I spent on silly pranks and thinking about usual stuff, technology and reading about stuff like Nehalem, Westmere, Falcon, etc.. Well, it wasn’t actually a waste of time.. But, I hope that you get a picture of what I’m trying to convey..

Here’s to Hoping that I wont get tested too much.. May God have mercy on me!

An Eulogy:

March 12, 2008 by Mohammed Ameen

Well, as I bid farewell to my iPod nano, i think of all the good times we’ve had together. I got it as a gift from my Uncle, well it was one hell of a surprise that I never even dreamt of. When I first held her, in my hand I could actually feel all those NAND cells humming along.. A feeling I would never forget, She was my first Apple product. Sort of like a first love, but a lil’ different..

My life would never be the same again, I could listen to “Lux Aeterna” in the middle of a crowded train, “A Place for my head” in the calm of a dull day.. We went through all those joys and sorrows together, those were great times.

But the fearful day came, when my darling was plucked away from my gentle palms and she became lost into this ugly wicked world of pendrives disguised as mp3 players and cheap knock-offs. Where ever she is.. I wish that she is safe and sound. What more can a lover ask for his true love?

So, long my love.

Life goes on..

When a geek gets philosophical ;)

“As you know this thing called “Life”.. Its actually a silly thing.. It often throws its worst at you, but in the end all that matters is whether you emerge unscathed from the rubbles or that you eventually succumb into the pressures and give up and spiral down into self-destruction..

So, what we all want to do is to emerge unscathed from the dust, right! So, sing along guys.. Dance the worries away and Enjoy your life limited only by your own morality and imagination..”

And for people who don’t actually get it.. What my Right hemisphere of my brain is actually trying to explain is that, “The thing called extended warranty is nothing but horse-shit, and what you get out of it is nothing but that you end up losing a few extra dollars. So, don’t limit the usage of your stuff to avoid getting your warranty voided, but instead use it beyond the manufacturer’s intended purpose of your device and modify it, hack it to the level that you’re only limited by cash and your sanity”..

There you go.. God gave me two hemispheres of brains and I intend to use them differently.. And th(is)ese post/verses actually depict(s) that..
