"...when a hopeless situation suddenly looks good"- Meredith
Exam times can make
one do weird things and notice weirder things.
A book, a fat red book
which teaches us the ABCD of Operating System is the sole motivation of this
post today. Nerd alert?
So as I was saying,
all those CSE students who did not care to buy the WBUT OS book and finally
chose to slog through the otherwise ‘best’ book from library, sincerely do not
have all the lack in life to read the
first and I mean the very FIRST page of an otherwise FAT red book.
So I am doing them a
favour by bringing this to their notice. Uhm, okay, did I sound like the next
big thing whose blog is worshipped worldwide? Reality Check?
Ah! Okay. The first page is basically the
acknowledgement page by the three authors. What is interesting about them is
the way they went on with the customary thank you and thus obviously amused and
entertained me and wasted my time and will waste your next few minutes. They
wrote:
“To my children, Lemor, Sivan,
and Aaron
And my Nicolette”
-Avil Silberschatz
And this man instantly
is my favourite. He calls his wife ‘my Nicolette’. My fairytale saga gets a bit
of reality dust in bits and pieces and I smile a happy smile. He remembers his
children first and then his better half and thus is a wonderful father and a loving
husband too. He is the Mr. Colour for me.
“To my wife, Carla,
And my children, Gwen, Owen, and
Maddie”
Peter Baer Galvin
So this author seemed
like a typical working class man and I have nothing specific to say. He seemed like
a responsible family man, boring at times but sweet nonetheless. He remembers
his wife first which a nice thing too. So I would rather tag him, the Mr. Black
and White.
“To my wife, Pat,
And our sons, Tom and Jay”
-GregGagne
With this man, I have issues.
Okay he did the basic the-mother-of-my-child-comes-before-him stunt by
mentioning the wife before his children but what I did not like was the use of “sons”.
I might just be super mean and hyper but this man seemed like a chauvinist who
is extremely proud of the production of the rare breed of sons in the world of
too many daughters. I would not even give him any colour.
So yes, I am done with
this post. I was my judgemental best and if you BEG to differ please keep it to
yourself. My book, my blog, my version.
How I interpret is how I interpret.
Thank You.

Mehfuz Har Kadam Karna Aye Khuda
So here is the plan.
Beg, borrow, steal a 500 ka note.
Take a train to Amritsar.
Live it off on Langar.
Hence, porashona can go down the drains.
Bas!
My future is set.
I will not die out of starvation.
Ever.
Thank God for Golden Temple and free food.
Ting Ting Titing!

To THE Two I Hardly Know :)
You would still be mine,
When my days would
mark your nights,
And my nights would be
cold.
When distance would
speak
Of the stories untold.
When you leave as you may,
While the monsoons strike and
stay,
I would cherish the memories you
gladly sold.
The songs that you now find old.
So fare well my love,
Find your star and let
dreams unfold.
And miles away as I
would long,
Your forever known
hands to hold,
You would still be mine.

And the favorite continues to be purano shei diner kotha. Now and always. How difficult your stories are how wonderful the lyrics are.
To the days gone by when pochishe boishakhs meant chondon and mishti packets and club and functions and para gossip..
Shubho Jonmodin!

One long hour into Google Translator and ami naki CSE pori and such waste of time :|
পাখি তোমার সঙ্গে যাব
পাখি তোমার সঙ্গে যাব
পাখি তোমার সঙ্গে প্রেমগভীর
দিন বদল-এর আশা ভুলে
জল ছাপিয়ে এই দু কুল-এ
পাখি তোমার সঙ্গে স্বপ্ননীর
পাখি তোমার সঙ্গে যাব
পাখি তোমার সঙ্গে যাব
পাখি তোমার সঙ্গে শান্তি স্থির
পাখি তোমার সঙ্গে যাব
পাখি তোমার সঙ্গে প্রেমগভীর
দিন বদল-এর আশা ভুলে
জল ছাপিয়ে এই দু কুল-এ
পাখি তোমার সঙ্গে স্বপ্ননীর
পাখি তোমার সঙ্গে যাব
পাখি তোমার সঙ্গে শান্তি স্থির
