3G, the global mobile broadband standard that has quite become a common thing around most part of the world still eludes India. India, supposed to be a growing economy, with its technologically sound citizens, and growing foreign businesses and a booming telecom market still hasn’t adopted 3G yet. With reasons behind its non-adoption being mostly corruption-related and other factors and With the Ministers being busy pocketing our Tax Rupees, it ain’t gonna happen soon.
In a age where 4G technologies are ready for mass-international consumption, tech such as LTE, WiMax has been finalized and is slowly moving out of labs into testing fields. While the rest of the world is getting ready to embrace 4G, we’re yet to experience 3G !
The need of the hour is a Telecom Revolution in India, akin to Reliance’s launch of the Rs. 500 Mobile. Something which forced Nokia and other Mobile Companies to take note of the lower market for mobile phones, and come out with a plethora of stellar handsets for the less fortunate. What we require now is not just the speedy auctioning of the 3G Spectrum but also a crazy revolutionary affordable plan from some Service provider that forces the market to adopt 3G ASAP ! 3G needs to spread like wildfire, for businesses in India are losing thousands of billions of dollars without even realizing that High speed internet is the need of hour and 3G is a goldmine for a ton of services would spring up and thereby increasing the rate of expenditure which would thereby spur the National Economy.
A Revolution in India is overdue, its time its done and bring India out of its current economic shambles !
They say that Failure is a stepping stone to success, but for how long can one fail? How fucking long? I’ve been failing in almost everything I do, My education is, My friends (still have a trusty pack of awesome friends), My project review, In the recent exams, In n no. of hands in Poker, failed to Secure tickets for the weekend flick, Failed to get rid of my laziness, Failed to catch the train in time, failed to get to class in time, failed to finish my assignments, and much more !!!
You say it, I’ve failed them all ! How the fuck can this jinx continue? Isn’t my redemption overdue !? Or am I damned to be an epitome of failure, cursed to remain so, to be an example of how not to be?
I’ve become a weakly engineered flimsy being, which is destined to fail ! Is my recall the eventual solution to all this !? Or can I be tweaked by an effectively applied patch, which shall serve as my untimely salvation ?
For my dilemma, there ain’t no Guide, or a wiki on how to get out from such a predicament ! But, there is Hope for as Lin Jensen said,
“Redemption can be found in hell itself if that’s where you happen to be.”
And for those who say that Hard work pays off, it does, but not always for you ! I’ve been given the shaft “n” no. of times and there’s not much I can do about it !
Figuratively speaking, I’m in a Hell of sorts, for one cannot lose so much, and not be shaken ! For I’m going through a very tough part of my silly little life ! But I do have Hope, For someone who has lost so much, I don’t have much to lose now. I might as well take risks and work on moving up, for its about time I got a taste of victory, I do deserve my share of glory. Prayers & Hope are the only reason I’m still standing, for I would’ve given up long back, when I had my dreams shattered into tiny infinte pieces by fate.
I know, its been a long long time, so he’re’s what i’ve been doing in all that time,

Hence, the then Commander of the Earth forces Salah Ibn Nasri conceeded that Martians will no longer be considered to be Aliens.

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
..(About 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 the 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..
..
Be Happy folks.. You get to live just once, live it to the fullest..
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
.. And say that I’m listening to all those old songs cause I just didn’t update my music collection
.. But being melancholic ain’t a easy job.. Time Out!
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?
.. 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
.. Lets Hope that I pass.. God Willing, I should.. Anyways Folks.. “Happy Holidays”..
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”..
“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..
It was not long ago, when I’d laid my eyes on the HTC Hero, in fact I believe i’d first seen it on my Opera Mini on my SE W830i, while reading Engadget about Adobe Flash on Mobiles(Cellular Phones). I was not satisfied with what i’d seen, for I am a person who believes in seeing images in all its glory. So, as soon as I’d come home from College, I logged on to interwebs and was stunned on seeing those images in HD !
