A two weeks at home that went by like a Shinkansen

Shinkansen(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shinkansen) is the train that holds the world speed record of 581kph. Literally, that’s how fast the past two weeks have sped by.

I reached home quite by surprise actually: no one expected the college to close this all of a sudden a week early. And then came the rumours of swine flu, H1N1. And, after that, as usual, people started wondering if college is really opening on 7th or not(quite a lot of people asked me about this; sorry to burst you bubble ).

A rocking two weeks that saw a flurry of activity online for me(I was so long in front of the computer and rarely did anything else that mom started saying “You go back to college this instant. Then at least you’ll talk somewhat to me ), including the ubuntu developer week(I scarcely understood what they were talking about; where they talking english I wondered throughout ; but made some sense thanks to my common sense I’d say), GCJ, those chat room jaunts(that often results in me IMing a bot ) and mainly the tweeting (man it is so addictive! Initially, I used to tweet like IM but now I IM like tweet!).

But, now all that has come to an end and I must pursue with new hope(seems CS engineers have best chances of getting a job post-recession: http://www.infoworld.com/d/networking/career-advice-high-tech-healthcare-best-choices-college-students-013) and i must head back to college and listen to the interesting stuff made to sound like useless drivel.

I’m really going to miss home. Perhaps it’s due to my complacency I don’t know: I don’t like change I guess. But that has to change(kind of ironic don’t you think? But well it is the right thing: I have to change:) ).

This two weeks has been the best time of my life so far I’d say. Learning PHP was so much fun, I’d like to get back to it soon. But, Varrun and Zubin are correct: I need grade points and I need to improve on algorithm too. Will now try to focus on these.

These two weeks has impacted me well and changed me a lot I believe. For the better or worse, I’m yet to see.

Ciao. Catch ya sometime I come to blog. Else, follow me on twitter; but no updates will occur when I’m at college . Take care and have fun.
