Million Dollar Baby

Monday, February 28th, 2005

I saw Million Dollar Baby yesterday. Quite serious. I’m not a serious guy. No further comments.

No more Google Ads

Friday, February 25th, 2005

Those of you who didn’t notice, shame on you. But for your benefit, I had Google AdSense ads on the top of my website and incorporated in the search feature of my website. Well, I think I must’ve had them up for about 2 weeks and all i made was $1.33! Because of you guys who didn’t click on these ads, I decided that it was not worth having these ads on my website. So, I took em off. It just looks nicer without them somehow.

How small is the new PS2 (PlayStation 2)?

Friday, February 18th, 2005

I just got my new PS2 (PlayStation 2) yesterday. I was surprised to see how small it was. I took some pictures of it compared to the XBox and my brother’s hand to show you how small it was. I’ll let the pictures talk -

The new PS2’s (PlayStation 2) height compared to the height of my XBox. Notice how small it is. This one is definitely worth looking at the original for. Zoom it all up (Click image for original).

Pranav sets an Example?

Friday, February 18th, 2005

On my first HW, I made a 10 out of 20. So when our TA was handing back our second quiz, he comes up to me-

“You’re Pren-Prenov?”
“Yeah”
“You did exceptionally well on this quiz…”

Now at this point, I’m like oh shit! he thinks I cheeted! God!

“…do you mind if I photocopy your quiz and hand it out to the rest of the class?”

I’m thinking uh-oh! wtf?

“yeah sure! I don’t care.”

So the point of this entry was to show my surprise!

No POWER

Tuesday, February 15th, 2005

Last night, we had no Power. Kinda makes you understand the utility of a flashlight. And the advantage of having your laptop battery charged so you can make those finishing touches to your paper. And the blessed cellphones that have built in alarm clocks because all your other alarm clocks run off of the power. It just makes you wonder how dependent we are as a civilization on electric power.

Tight Schedules

Sunday, February 13th, 2005

I have had some very tight schedules in the past week. Whoa! BTW Sue, It has started to become a habit to wake up at 7 before the alarm clocks! It is truly amazing. Basically, my day runs from 7am to 11pm scheduled but sorta over-runs to 12am usually.

Anyways, not that I’m complaining, but I love the tightness of the schedule - doesn’t give me to to think of ways to skip doing work. I guess it’s a change for the good.
