To my old friend....

Sometimes you make me feel happy
sometimes you make me feel sad
You make me laugh at times
You make me cry at times
And you scare me at times
But still you are the one i can't resist

You are the one that showed me
the light on the surface of moon
You are the one that made me hear
the calmness amidst a violent tide
You are the one that made me feel
the pleasure in the air, on top of a peak

I loved a girl, out of my reach
you brought her, made us meet
I hated them, i can't dare to touch
you blew the heads off their bodies
I was scared watching a horror
You played pranks frightening me

Thank you dream, thanks for
everything you have given
And for staying awake,
all the time i slept............

The philosophy of one century is the common sense of the next

This is one such quote that actually made some sense, infact lot of sense, in orkut's today's fortune archive. I sat upto spend my mid semester break on something and this shows up , leaving me in a state of serious thinking about the history of various scientific breakthroughs. Immediately i wanted to log this somewhere, like this place.
Speaking of 'log' I remember reading about the discovery of log[logarithm], which is one such invention that startled everyone who didnot know that a sequence of flip-flops could actually compute the value of 453876 x 182725 , now i seriously doubt if anyone know what the application of a log function is. Right in my school days i used to see my friends hating the exercises of computing multiplications and divisions using log-tables. But no one ever knew that such complicated operations turned out to be simple additions and subtractions. I was fascinated by the simplification offered by log-function. The person to be praised for this is the great mathematician john napier , he is such a fascinating personality that he got this idea like bolt from the blue. There was no history for log-function, he is the person who created it. All other things in mathematics are mostly developed progressively. Hats-off to that genius..........

Sweet little nanni..

It is quite evident that if you know a person beyond a certain 'stranger' limit, and have been in touch with him/her for a quite a long time, you must have hated him/her atleast a few number of times. It might be anyone like a relative, a friend or anyone. But there is one person in my life, and only one to be sure, whom I know pretty well [seen her from the days she couldn't walk or talk and now, she is a completely grown youngster.] and never lost contact with her. I have been talking to her all long. I never hated her, not even for a micro-second. Though we play pranks at each other all the time. Our conversations were never formal. Whenever I think of her or talk to her, I feel very nostalgic. I don't remember most of the stupid games we used to play in the childhood. In what ever situation I am, i try to have a chat with her[except for some times, when i overlook the tab i opened].....She is sweet little fatty[oops...nanni, nandita].....
