Bored at home... sitting, sleeping and eating I'm now learning web-designing. Something that keeps me busy these dayz. Also trying to design interfaces, with the success of Mac4Lin I've now gotten my hands on UI designs :) Yet to get call from any university. I hope I do get at least one this time! :D

We will open the book. Its pages are blank. We are going to put words on them ourselves. The book is called Opportunity and its first chapter is New Year's Day. - Edith Lovejoy Pierce Wishing everyone a very happy and prosperous new year!

18th December 2007 Your favorite Mac4Lin is back! A new version, more changes, better looks and an overall more polished product. Please read changelog for information of changes in this version. It gives me immense pleasure to inform all that downloads have crossed 2.6 TB till date! Please go through the Documentation for illustrated installation instructions. Also some entities like GTK Metacity theme etc. now include two versions. Hence individual README files are included only if there is a need to convey release specific information which the generic documentation does not include. Please read the README file for more details in such cases. Changelog Apply it, flaunt it, enjoy it! ***************************************************************************** Mac4Lin has been approved to be a contender for FOSS awards.

I can now breathe a sigh of relief. I am done with applying to universities; submitting the online application as well as sending the supporting documents. I now await their decision. Guess I will get to know by February. I can now concentrate on applying for a job. I am dead rotten sitting at home for the past 6 months. Time to hit the road :)

Today is a day of relaxation. I submitted my application to two universities (Ohio State University and University of California, Santa Barbara). One week of hectic life ended yesterday; filling up the online application, readying all the supporting documents, finishing my Statement of Purpose, requesting my Professors for Letters of Recommendation etc. All this has given me a week of sleepless nights! More work ahead. But then everyone needs a break and here I am, getting my much needed break!

I had a wonderful birthday, yesterday; though I'd thought otherwise. We are a group of 11 and celebrate each other's birthday with much fanfare. However, things are different this year. Most of us are scattered all over the country. Everyone's busy with their jobs. I didn't how what to do, since only 3 of us remain in this city. But Raveesh and Bhavya surprised me with a Card, Gift and a Cake :) One of the first to wish me on my birthday was my sis. Wishes came pouring in from everywhere, relatives, friends, seniors, teachers, professors.. everyone! I'm so happy :)
