Life and its intracies, fallacies and challenges

BusyBody

Been quite sometime since I last posted. Lots has happened since then.

My grandma has come down on a visit and two days later my uncle too(On Friday).

Then, finally the day I had been long waiting for came.

Bout of Madness

Well I finally had my bout of madness. I got wet in the rain today.

It happened this way. My cousin who has come down for a visit wanted to go meet up with another cousin of ours. So we went. Had dinner there and while we were there, the power went twice and it started pouring like cats and dogs.

We waited for the rain to abate and were just chatting. Well the rain did stop and the power also came back, almost simultaneously. So I decided to make a run for it and left for home.

Nearing completion

The project report is done. There might be a wee bit left here and there, will know tomorrow. But besides that, I just completed the final draft of the report. Whee….

The presentation is being done by the others. I hope it will be completed by tom so we can be done with going to the company. Tomorrow will most likely be the last day of our little trip to UGSI :wink:

Ah well.. It was fun while it lasted. A long lasting memory for all of us I am sure :-)

A good day after many

I had a good day after quite a many days. My cousin has come down and was with him the entire evening.

Once I left college, I was home for sometime before going over to meet my cousin. He was like lets go out, lets go out. So we went out but the damn dude could not decide where he wanted to go or what he wanted to do.

Mistaken Identity

This is the second time and it is getting weird. Today, I was chatting with an online friend and she realized that I am not who she thought I am. It was due to my Y! id, which partly was similar to a chat friend she has in IRC.

And this is not the first time that it is happening with me. Earlier too, another friend of mine mistook me over Y! for someone else and chatted with me for almost a month thinking I was someone else. Hmm.. I think it is me and Y! which are incompatible :neutral: I should give it up I guess…

Anyway atleast this time the mistaken identity lasted only a couple of days before it was realized :grin:

Prankster – Who me?

This is one of the most awesome pranks that I have ever played on anyone.

I recently changed my Y! id to a new one but still retain the existing one. Now the prank idea came when I was chatting with a friend of mine on Y! and I rememberd a utility which allows me to start two instances of Y! which is normally not possible.

Now I started chatting with her through both the ids pretending in the old Id to be me and denying that it was me who was using that Id. I pretended that it must have been hijacked since I was not using it anymore. What made it even more plausible was that she did not know about the hack which allows multiple instances of Y!. I said check for yourself and see if you can indeed start the multiple instances.

Me vs Girls

I have had it with girls. This time it is them who do not seem to understand me. Well its like this. I am a guy who usually pulls his friends legs, irrespective of who it is. But I also usually make it a point that I tell ppl that I am usually joking unless I explicitly say I am serious.

Now recently I was on chat with a girl over IM and was just joking as usual. I even made it a point that I used all sorts of smileys to ensure it conveys I was joking. It seems she still took offence and has been frosty since.

And this is not the first time. Makes me think that it must be me who is doing something wrong. Well I am just about ready to dump it all and block all the girls over IM. And I have taken a new resolution to never try and be funny with girls again if it makes any difference to anyone reading this :-(

Guys vs Girls

One thing that I have noticed with a lot of girls whom I know and have spoken to over the phone or chatted over IM is that they all use a common phrase “so what else” to continue a conversation. Personally I find this phrase very very irritating. It almost makes me want to clam up. My reasoning is this – If I have something else to tell I will say it out. Do not try to continue the conversation by saying that.

Now guys, it is different. If two guys are speaking or chatting, it is limited to how much is to be spoken or conveyed and once done will be the end of the conversation. Both will go silent or disconnect as the case may be. It is such a simple scheme and easy to manage. With girls you would have come up with filler conversation so as not to seem rude.

Another of life’s little mysteries :-D
