Sushovaner JibonJatra

Really, I actually saw this coming. I Knew that at some point of time I would dwindle off and write no more of my "JibonJatra" as such. I didn't realize it would be so soon. Anyway, what has happened in the mean time? Well mid-sems are over. Went so-so. Digital was good. After that I had Google India Code Jam Competetion, for which I forfieted going home this weekend. That went OK too. Although I felt miserable about not going home. The good part is that I can go next weekend. I made the Azad Competetion Arena website. Probably They'll host it on my comp. Oh, yes, Tushar-da got married. Boudi is quite good, I liked her. Met rupu-didi, and tumpa-didi, but it wasn't so very strange meeting tumpa-di because I haven't been in Patul without her, so I couldn't get how exciting it must have been for her. I have a digital class in 20 minutes. This is crazily the first time I have been happy that the classes are restarting, I have been a bit lonely this weekend. We

Well I did participate in Ataxia. Although my hands were shaking like a tender leaf on an otherwise bare tree in the Sahara desert-storm, we actually made it through Part - I and were, say 75 % through with Part - II when they closed submissions. Man! somebody could dissasemble a toy motorbike in like 30 seconds! OK, then, I did complete the Quine McCluskey Program. I discovered a strange bug in Microsoft Visual Studio, though, it's Release Build was not quite as good as it's Debug build. I had thought that I would do the last part of the QM algo quite easily. Deceptively, that was the hardest part! I had written it for so long that at the end I cheated and did something that did not follow the algo perfectly, but it works. I have been watching Friends a lot lately. I simply love the way they live, and the acting is so very natural. Oh, yes! I met Prosenjit today at Kshitij arena. He was a bit changed and I could not recognize him at first. I made Nath ask his name before I

Today Kshitij, an aggregation of equally stupid minded fellows is happening in our college, with a record accumulation of sponsors and money being thrown down the drain. It is the tech-fest of our college. Yes, I am participating, but in just one event, Ataxia, that too because Loadu (Swarnavo Sarkar) forced me to. He was one short of a team member. Funny to think of it, our Ataxia team is the same group of guys in Electronics lab first year. Me, loadu and Sovik Kumar Nath. A couple of important things happened today. Well, I woke up a 8:20, which is a perfectly reasonable (hoo-haa in fact) on a Saturday, thinking that Soumitra will come to discuss the Quine McCluskey Algorithm. What I had forgotten was that we had decided to go to Gol-bazaar to get ourselves some of the amazing digital chips we found in digi lab. We went to Tech-Market, Soumitra and I. We found our marked out shop closed, so we had a sweet and Soumitra was wanting to withdraw money from the bank which had not yet open

I thought that I would say in the very title that I am at such and such place but whoa... It suddenly lost all meaning and I gave up the idea. I think I am not going to mention where I am, just what I am doing. And I am not going to say how I am doing but how I think I am doing. I am Sushovan De. I live in West Bengal, and for sons of Uncle Sam, that happens to be in India. I have a free internet connection and a Pentium 4, so I made myself moderately net-savvy. I study in a school where at the end of four years you get a hard-paper certificate which tells whoever is concerned with it that so-and-so has actually the guts to make thorugh 4 years of his life in this crazy way and is awarded the Bachelor of Technology degree. There. I already have given you some hints on where I am. Just two years ago I was at this absolutely amazing school where I had these absolutely amazing friends. Now, somehow, the friends I have in this crazy place have something with them that never
