I got to learn lots of things, and got to do lots of things. Got to talk to lot of cool people. Though I wouldn’t forget that it also brought 7th semester which was like the most difficult semester I ever had. This semester probably took my anxiety level to top. Some of the highlights of 2007 are below:

  1. Got a job at Microsoft, India. I am excited about it.
  2. Got involved into Free Culture activities.
  3. Shifted 99% to open source softwares. (flash :( )
  4. Shifted 100% to free songs. (though, this is true.)
  5. Shifted to wonderful KDE. I will write an entry for it.
  6. No more Gentoo, it takes time. Ubuntu on other hand is wonderful. (Apologies to all those who are on Gentoo or are thinking of shifting to Gentoo because I asked them to do so. :P )
  7. Hiking :)
  8. Another hobby now is Photography :( …. need money to buy DSLR.
  9. Bought a new web space to play with different things. Its been wonderful till now.
  10. Zeropage removed restrictions from their songs.
  11. Kelly Allyn sent me her autograph, need to go home to get it. :D
  12. Met some wonderful people during internship at Virginia Tech.
  13. <compressed because its personal> :P

Hopes from 2008 :

  1. Grad School or a good job (or a startup?)
  2. DSLR
  3. Free Culture Club at IITK
  4. Passing IITK :D
  5. openmoko / android
  6. make IITK music club release an album under CC ( www.tempostand.com should help us)
  7. Finish talk with Vox Populi guys

He was sitting in corridor in front of my room. I heard Shankar doing some thing, so opened the door and found Shanky patting this dude. He probably wasn’t feeling good because of cold, and hence came to our wing. Its an awesome experience to have a room in front of lawn. I get to see lots of animals, and sometimes shoot them with my FE210 camera. Well, I will soon buy a DSLR, but till then I am trying with this camera.

So, I brought my camera, started taking photos. This guy didn’t like flash at all. He tried running, I ran after him. And when he found that he can not beat me on this relatively slippery for dogs floor, he stopped. I patted his head so he feels comfortable, and then started photo session. Though, I didn’t mean to take any good shots (lolz), and rather I thought I didn’t take any good shots, my friends asked me upload the photos on Orkut. And I did. And I got some cool responses. One guy even copied the photos, and posted it on his album. [:)] …. and this other guy, who probably never sent me a message, asked me how I got that dog to do all those things? I hope it’s not just because it was my first time. :)

So, anyways, the photo captions goes with the saying of Mahatma Gandhi : ” Bura mat dekho” which means don’t see bad things. “Bura mat suno” don’t listen to bad things and “Bura mat kaho”, don’t speak bad words.

Bura mat dekho

Bura mat dekho

Bura mat suno

Bura mat suno

Bura kahna allowed hai :P (speaking bad things is allowed)

Bura kahna allowed hai :P (Speaking bad things is allowed)
