Breaking the silence

Friday, November 13th, 2009

This semester has been the toughest for me, spiritually as well as academically. Maybe they correlate in some way. Maybe not. But it happened at the same time.
I am finally blogging now right after taking 2 1.5 hour EE midterms back-to-back. Also, I spent a total of at least 120 hours this semester programming 2 [...]

Gracepoint Live 2009 Intro Video

Monday, April 6th, 2009

Also on Youtube.
This video resonates with me. The longer I live, the more I realize how hard life is…
“But don’t give up. Persevere, one day at a time. You’ve been given this one shot at life. And though you’ve got regrets and sorrows, hope still prevails. Stop dwelling in the past and look ahead…”

A week of testing, and in the end, victory

Sunday, April 5th, 2009

This week was a crazy week. How I managed to sustain through it is purely by God’s grace and strength.
Started coughing for some reason on Tuesday night, and this grew to be a very bad cough and a mild fever by Thursday. By Friday I was “dying”. On Saturday I wanted to faint as I [...]

Snapshots around Berkeley

Thursday, March 12th, 2009

Well, not much, but when I did bother to take out my camera, these were what I got:
 
Dalai Lama is coming to speak at Berkeley. It’s Berkeley, so students queue up under the hot sun to buy tickets to see him. I frankly couldn’t be bothered about the Old Dalai.
 
 
 
You are in Soda Hall. There [...]

Meet my GSI

Thursday, March 5th, 2009

Irony or ironies, I’m blogging on the day before my midterm. But I’m kinda sick of studying for it already, Discrete Math, proofs and theorems and all. You either know it or you don’t.
Anyway meet my Discrete Math & Probability class GSI. I thought he was a nice Indian chap who was pretty smart. I [...]

Slumber battle

Wednesday, February 25th, 2009

I never had such a hard fight.
Against sleep in lecture. But I won nonetheless.
In Linear Algebra lecture the Professor just made me so sleepy that the only thing that kept me awake was my note-copying. But I found myself cancelling a lot of wrongly copied stuff, and even managed to dream in my lecture seat [...]

Happy to be busy

Tuesday, February 24th, 2009

I realize that the only good solution to not think too much and worry about whatever I like to think about when I am idle is that there’s a midterm in two days, with a paper due on the same day, and a problem set due a day after that, not to mention the computer [...]
