The egoist !

Thanks to Jan here...I unleash myself !


I am thinking about...
hitting the gym from next week

I said...
last week that I'll do the above from this week

I wish...
I could bunk work tomorrow and get sloshed on Budweiser

I miss...
those rocking hyd days

I hear...
irritating noises of pop-up messages on my roomie's comp

I wonder...
if I can ever get rid of my back pain

I regret...
flunking miserably at high school

I am...
without the slightest qualms, the laziest person I've ever known or heard of

I dance...
horribly

I sing...
not as horribly as I dance

I cry...
when I see my poonal photos where I am as thin as thin can be

I am not always...
irritable but I get really pissed off when somebody(with very little exceptions;-)) wakes me up with loud music or TV or open windows

I write...
huh?

I confuse...
others when they ask me to take decisions for them

I need...
to control my temper when I hear those grumpy good mornings from Mr. V(More on this personality coming up)

I should try...
to get my driver's license before my roomie kicks my ass out of his car

I finish...
a big fat burger two hours after a supposed heavy lunch(C'mon dude it's two full hours!)

I tag...
Sekar

Rambles...

A folly committed back in time
Makes me fret,whine and pine.
Of no use are all these tears
For they do the heart nothing but pierce.

Those bitter shreds of truth
Are doing everything but soothe
The heart that badly bleeds
But in vain, it's never to get what it needs.

A million hopes brick by brick built
And all that is left is guilt,guilt and sheer guilt.

Only to find that...

The match was called off yesterday...grrr! But you know what...fighters never say die!!

Blistering Barnacles!

Nothing can be more disheartening than falling low in your own eyes. Trust me. Absolutely nothing. I had this tormenting experience yesterday and the result - Blistering Barnacles!

Yesterday, after four long months I decided to kick out the lazy b*@#$%& in me and hit the cricket field. Only to realize, not once in the past 25 years had I felt so very unfit for the game. I felt the entire cricketing community yelling at me asking me to quit.

It all started when after a couple of warm ups I started the match with my spell. To say I put my entire country to shame would be to say the least. I bowled three consecutive wide balls without a minuscule realization that it was the first over of the match. Way to go. Isn't it? Fuming and cursing myself, I bowled the next ball only to slip and sprain my ankle. I gave up and turned to try my luck at the field.

To mention my miserable botch ups at fielding would be tantamount to inviting all you folks to spew third degree expletives over this piece of crib.

My attempts with the bat are needless to mention. Never in my life had I faced difficulties facing pace bowlers. Good old R used to be one. In fact, a good one. I know I used to have it in me to manage him and I did do my bit at woodrich (a resort in Bangalore) to salvage my team then. And here...I was hitting the dust and sweeping the ground at this supposed fast bowling attempt by this stupid greybeard (His action sucks!). His kids would have done a better job managing him.

If I were to be doing all this back home with my gang, to say I would've been beaten black and blue with the very 'balla' would be an understatement. All I could do then was to thank my stars that A and R weren’t present there to see me flounder with due diligence !

After all this, the only thing that is giving me hopes to venture into the field again today is the fact the I won my team yesterday in the last match with a modest 30 off the last over.

Here I go all set to keep the fire burning...

Note to Self: Never let the Lazy B!@#$%& even surface out again!!

My first post

Ah, so here I am.....tapping my keyboard, spinning my wheels of mind, contemplating what to fill in here. This is supposed to be my first post and I am supposed to write something. Well.... what do I start with? A tribute to my inspirational blogger? My miserable fiascos at school in writing?(despite my innumerable unfazed attempts at "creativity") Or what's currently cooking in my life? I don’t know!


Ok. So let me start with what this blog is all about. This blog will on the surface focus on writing device drivers for the Linux system with discussions on a wide gamut of topics beginning with setup of kernel modules, to concepts like Network Drivers, kmod and Advanced Modularization and mmaps and DMAs. Folks with interest in C programming, Unix Shell Internals and advanced Digital Signal Processing may also find some relevant literature here. This and other new stuff that's brewing in the tech world.


I really wish I could say all this. In reality not a single word of this is true. In fact it's a sheer disgrace to the entire tech fraternity if I were to speak about all this! I frankly don’t even have the remotest idea of what all these mean. (The fact that had if I had had atleast a shred of knowledge about the afore mentioned stuff, I would be miles from where I am right now is a different issue!) This space shall carry anything that happens to me or relates to me or manages to catch my attention. Might be anything from some mushy stuff from down the memory lane, tales of drunken revelries from the good old days to how I learned to make veg pulav yesterday. Absolutely anything under the sun!


So here I come, with promises to fill this space with drivel and only more drivel!
