Rejection Dejection

Disclaimer:All names used in this post are fictious.Any resemblance to characters living or dead is purely coincidental.
Also the interview between the interviewer and Superstar Rajnikanth has been removed coz I myself cant kalichify my thalaivar...............ENJOY!!!!!!!!!

Report from the U.S. Government

After denial of visa to Narendra Modi, we have noticed that terrorism has been curbed to a great extent. Osama, who called up last night from Bunker No. 49, informed us that he is extremely pleased with U.S. action towards anti-Islamic nations. Observing the positive developments, in the best interest of world peace, we are hereby cancelling the visas of Manmohan Singh, Vajpayee, Laloo Prasad, Kris Srikkanth, Vijaykanth, T.Rajendar, and Subramania Swamy.

The reactions... (from todays news)

Interviewer : Manmohan-ji, what do you feel about this decision? What do you think is the reason behind this? What impact is it going to have on the country's repute? What is India going to do about it?
Manmohan : I welcome it. I feel Musharraf's mother has played a vital role in this, I would like to thank her. India's power has thus been made evident on the global front, thanks to Congress government. The Indian Government will make sure that Musharraf gets prime seats and pop-corns while watching the match and will take care to ensure that he is comfortable.

Interviewer : Ji, I was asking you about you the U.S. decision to cancel visas of many important Indians.
Manmohan : Baap re baap, is this true? How come Sonia ji never told me about this? I am sorry, I will be right back.

Manmohan (to Sonia) : Arey Sonia ji, you have given me the wrong piece of paper to memorise from, these people are here to ask me about some U.S. decision. They say visa cards are no longer valid in the U.S. Can I please apply for a Masters Card, please Sonia ji?

Interviewer : What are your thoughts on this Vajpayee ji?
Vajpayee : Is desh mein ganga *looks around for 7 seconds* behthi hai. Bharath desh mein *looks around for 12 seconds* kyunki saans bhi kabhi bahu thi. *looks around for 6 seconds* The people *looks around for 2 3 seconds* of India *looks around for 29 seconds* are by no means *looks around for 4 seconds* lesser *looks around for 7 seconds*.......

Interviewer : Due to shortage of video tapes, were winding up here folks. We assume that Mr. Vajpayee is not taking this lightly. We will continue live telecast of this event tommorow at the same time. Mr. Vajpayee should have reached the conclusion part by then, hopefully. Thank you folks. Good night.

Interviewer : Does this disappoint you Laloo ji?
Laloo : Yes. I very disappoint. Doctor tell me I have mad cow dijeej.
Interviewer : Not that Laloo ji. Do you know the U.S. has denied your visa?
Laloo : How they can? I influence high in Buffalo region. Train and bus no run in bufallo tommorow.
Interviewer : How is that possible Laloo ji?
Laloo : I cowboy they cowboy. Cowboy to cowboy good relason. They protest for Laloo. I give fodder to Buffalo, buffalo faithful.

Interviewer : Are you worried about this Mr. Srikkanth?
Srikkanth : Arey, yeh kya. Life mey yeh subkuch bilkul hotha hai aur teek hai. Apnae influence use karke mey isko nothing kar dhoonga.
Interviewer : What would you do sir?
Srikkanth : Sirf natural game khelna. U.S. ke beech mey time spend karthi aur green card paathi.
Interviewer : Paathi?
Srikkanth : Hamarey gaaw mey "paathi" katti hee soar eat-they hai. Paathi kattinae se buthi aatha aur mere aatha kush hotha.

Interviewer : We will let you know what he meant pretty soon folks. We have sent it to Dan Brown to decode the message. If you know what he meant please SMS your answers to 7878. Thank you.

Interviewer : Did u expect your visa to be cancelled Mr. Sidhu?
Sidhu : The American policy is as unpredictable as Laloo's butt, they explode at any moment.
Interviewer : Any comments?
Sidhu : If only people had brains the size of JLo's butt this could have been avoided.
Interviewer : How are you feelin now?
Sidhu : As comfortable as having a porcupine below my bum.
Interviewer : How should India react to it?
Sidhu : India is bending down in front of a bull with a red cloth on its buttocks. Time to get up.
Interviewer : Why do you always stick with bums Mr. Sidhu?
Sidhu : It is important that one puts his bums to proper use. Or else you need to use perfumes like pesticides.

Interviewer : You know what happened Saurav?
Ganguly : Please don't disturb me now, I am going in to bat, come back later.
Interviewer : Ok, I shall go to the loo and get back, see you then.

*After 2 mins*
Interviewer : It is good to have you back. What took you so long?
Ganguly : These stupid bolwers, they keep bowling no-balls.
Interviewer : Do you know the U.S. cancelled your visa?
Ganguly : Oh no, I was planning to play baseball there.
Interviewer : That's why they cancelled it.
Ganguly : I will take up the matter with Jagmohan Dalmiya. He knows Powell very well.
Interviewer : That's Ricardo Powell Saurav.
Ganguly : Oh. What do I do then?

Saurav Ganguly kya karega? To find out, tune in same time tommorow to Kyunki Saurav Bhi Kabhi Player They.

Interviewer : They have cancelled your visa Laxman, any comments?
Laxman : Why? I am no terrorist. Why should they cancel my visa?
Interviewer : Your name doesn't fit on the paper. Vengipurappu Venakata Sai Lax is all they could manage. They tried processing it, but ur name overflowed onto the next guy - Mr. Anketavan had his name printed as Mananketavan for which he is planning to sue the U.S. Government. So they are pretty angry with you.

First Day of Sixth Sem

Well after a fortnight long leave we are back in college,its a friday this is the day when our thalaivar SUPERSTAR RAJNIKANTH's 1980 blockbuster Billa remake by Ajith is being released.And also the controversial film Mirugam also is being released today only.
I got up by 6:30 and started to college by 8:20.On the way cycle chain got loosened,while making it right ...all hands full of grease.Reached there by 8:50,msged Srivatsan regarding where was the class allotted.He himself had nt come to class by then[:D].Somehow found it to be a class in ground floor,third one on th right.Valliyamai mam was there ,she would be handling Software Project Management it seems.Then it was N/W lab by Gunasekharan big aaapu this sem......he would be handling Mobile Computing too it seems.After lunch at shanthakumar's room [...well he was nt back from his native so far...] me karthi and kamlesh were reading some very interesting news on newspaper.......don ask wat it is....it is suspense.
Then it was Visual Programming lab..no staff alloted for it so far..so jus attendance and we left.Reached home by 2:30..then on jus wasted time on worthless things on the net........

Confucius quotes:

About Confucius:
Confucius (551 BC – 479 BC) was a Chinese thinker and social philosopher, whose teachings and philosophy have deeply influenced Chinese, Korean, Japanese, and Vietnamese thought and life.His teachings may be found in the Analects of Confucius, a collection of "brief aphoristic fragments", which was compiled many years after his death. Modern historians do not believe that any specific documents can be said to have been written by Confucius,but for nearly 2,000 years he was thought to be the editor or author of all the Five Classics such as the Classic of Rites, and the Spring and Autumn Annals

Confucius quotes:

"Silence is the true friend that never betrays."

“It does not matter how slowly you go as long as you do not stop.”

“Learn as though you would never be able to master it; Hold it as though you would be in fear of losing it”

“What you do not want done to yourself, do not do to others.”

“I want you to be everything that's you, deep at the center of your being.”

“By three methods we may learn wisdom: first, by reflection, which is noblest; second, by imitation, which is easiest; and third, by experience, which is the most bitter.”

“I do not want a friend who smiles when I smile, who weeps when I weep; for my shadow in the pool can do better than that.”

“Our greatest glory is not in never falling but in rising every time we fall”

“Life is really simple, but we insist on making it complicated.”

“When it is obvious that the goals cannot be reached, don't adjust the goals, adjust the action steps.”

A Happy Ending to a Disastrous End Sem

Well what to say,today the day after the most bizarre month i ever faced in my life,have not faced such an exam in my life.This sem I had a very poor attendance.And also a new order was issued by Anna university dat attendance carries 10 marks in internals,that is according to attendance percentage if
  • 0-75==>0 marks
  • 75-80==>2 marks
  • 80-85==>4 marks
  • 85-90==>6 marks
  • 90-95==>8 marks
  • 95-100==>10 marks
And before even the sem began I was down with chicken pox and one of my dear friend said dis attendance marks information

I returned to college only on July 12 Whoosh already 10 day attendance gone!!!!!!
And this sem I was involved in a few paper presentation at some symposiums with my classmate Arvin again no OD was given for that.But on the last working day only I came to know OD was there,I tried but did not bother to look it up seriously All this led to a poor attendance marks and eventually a very poor internal marks with the lowest being 29 in System Software with 0 in attendance.

Anyway sem came to an end on Nov 7

And it was time to concentrate on the end sem beginning with OOAD on Nov13
It had full of stories except in dat question to draw class diagram etc did i have full confidence in.

Next was System Software
"I had nothing to lose"
Given the poor internal marks in SS,so did study hard but to my bad luck the 1st chapter which i studied very well not even a single question came
any way hav done average only,it all depends on DK sir now

Then it was graphics on Nov 19(prepounded by a day coz the xam was actually on 20th)one of the misleading paper where in class totally irrelevant to syllabus was taught and wat came was strictly to syllabus, and also the previous day got the message from class rep that it was enough to study his notes:-(.Bullshit!! As a precaution i studied syllabus portion only an hour before the exam in Shanthakumar's room and managed the xam somewat.

Halfway through the exam now 3 more left to go.I was a bit happy that the 3 which are left I have a clear mindset what is in syllabus and what may come in exam but it proved to be misleading

So it was Networks on Nov 24 had done a decent job in studying but the question paper was a Shoaib Akhtar bouncer,a Bret Lee beamer Except for 3 16 marks I am not sure about any other question ,many of my friends had nt done well it seems

Next it was Mangalam mam's DSP on Nov 27 ;-( had bunked a lots of classes so had nt understood either IIR or FIR filter well nothing can be done about it now coz the D-Day was here.Had studied well was surprised that i understood both filters but should hav luked it up before xam in exam hall forgot both iir and fir procedure already the paper seemed to be so tough a googly coz actually the paper was direct but I had complicated my answers,I hav not written such a horrible paper in my life time,Jus after finishing the paper even had the doubt whether I will pass or not but thanx for that sweet news said by raghavan to whom his dear friend(pink peter or pep or whoever she is, leave it for now) had sed,now I hav a bit faith that I may pass just a pass is wat I am desperate for ,the internals of 41 will assure me atleast a C grade.

Anyway Past is past look out for the future.

Next is my favourite subject Theory of Computation on the Nov 30 and it is the concluding exam. I already hav internal of 40 off 40 and dunno abt attendance so even some 75 off 100 in end sem will assure me an A grade.And preps were nt that gud may be coz of the over confidence but thanx to shantha kumar whom me and praveen taught turing machine and exactly the 2 questions were repeated in the paper proper subtraction and double tape TM
rest of the 16 marks hav nt done that great anyway internals will take care i hope.

Lord Murugar was there with me from the beginning to the end of this november even my orkut display pic is Malaysia murugar and through his blessing alone I was able to perform dis exam in a decent manner.And watever grade i get is his results only.I hav done what i was supposed to do (but i dont think hav done it to the best of my ability) and I am not bothered about the results.Whatever be the result the glory goes to my creator Lord Muruga

My First Blog

Hello everyone
I am Karthik Ragunath

"நான் நல்லவன் என்று ெசால்லிெகால்ல நான் நல்லவன் இல்
நான் ேகட்டவன் என்று ெசால்லிெகால்ல நான் ேகட்டவன் இல்ல"

I think you might have understood much about me now
Anyway I am Pre-final year Information Technology,Engineering student
Studying at Anna University(MIT Campus,Chromepet)

I did my schooling from DAV,for a short time of 2 years dats the XI and XII
Did my major part of schooling from Kendriya Vidyalaya No-1,Vasco-da-gama,Goa from 5th to 10th.I studied there coz my mom was posted as PG.Teacher in that school.
Before which I studied in Chennai only
after all Chennai is my hometown and the city which is so close to my heart,I am so passionate abt Chennai
Anyway when I did my primary schooling in Chennai I had been jumping from one school to another almost every year which included MCTM(Ist std),then Gill Adarsh(IInd and IIIrd) and then DAV Gopalapuram(IV standard)

Some of the greatest blunder I did in my life:
  • Came to Chennai to join State Board leaving CBSE.I had scored 94% in Xth,due to my Mom's wish of a secure future if I study in State Board I came here.Though I did secure a 96% here,A guy with my same marks in AIEEE secured Goa state rank 3,I had secured TamilNadu state rank 357:-(. Also I missed BITSAT by 5 marks(I might hav cleared the cut-off if i had a CBSE background).
  • Stopped playing Cricket in my Xth ,I had taken hat-tricks scored tons even had scored a 201(my persnal Highest Score) in a test match jus some 2 months before 10th std commenced,But I never went to play coz of exam pressure which any other student of my class would have had then.But when I resumed playing after Xth I turned out to be a miserable cricketer worthless of even catching a straight catch jus like one of the character in Chennai-28
  • It was jus some two days after I had bought my cycle[Herules MTB DX,the red one which I am still using to go to college].One of my dear friend Maruthi was teaching me to ride,I was ready to drive myself the very second day itself,when the then KV-1 Principal Maam[Nalayini]'s daughter(she was some 5 years old i think) was playing I rang my bell,she did nt move I did nt know my cycle did have something called brake:d DASHED ON HER!!!!!!
  • Staged a play regarding the continuity of one of our english lessons,I scripted a great play with some futuristic time traveling etc but we never practiced,when the day came it turned out to be gr8 FLOP SHOW when the guy holding the curtains I think it was Ulhas pulled it down and v wer changing our dresses....and the entire class saw it[hushhhhh...an embarassing act]
  • Lots more there some are private and unsharable and the rest I will post in the blogs to come
