Reached first milestone



70.00

Not even a gram less or more !! This was the number shown on the electronic weight scale today at one of the restaurants where I check my weight on a weekly basis. I was so over joyed that I could not believe what I saw. This would not have been possible without the great books, fitness videos, blogs, my hall of fame photos of people whom I want to become, and definitely motivating words/ tweets by hundreds of health/fitness lovers on twitter. And best of all nutritious and healthy food by my fiancee that just goes along with my daily exercise routine. Thank you all and a BIG thanks to you Jesus :)

Indexing our life - Dreams

[ (c) stock.xchng]

It would be blinding to ignore the fact, or rather the truth how much my friend wants to be in a job, more than anything else and could go to whatever extend to get that point across. It just brings to my head, how much powerful our minds are in creating situations that match our personality/ beliefs and value systems.

Today I realized for the first time, the true power of focusing. If we focus our efforts on one thing and constantly think about that, make ourselves believe in it entirely, Its just a matter of time before you can see it unfold in front of your eyes.

As a matter of fact, it was not my friend's dream that I see around me, right now. I had dreamed my friend dreaming about this. Which means, when my friend's dream came true, it was my dream which came true in the first place, so this is very interesting indeed.

A great b'day gift from my dad

(A cool 6.1 mega pixel, Kodak c653 easy share camera)

Last Sunday me, Swaroop and my dad went for one of the coolest shopping days of my life and at the end of it, I had a cool Kodak easy share c653 camera in my hand. It was one awesome camera. And as a special offer, we managed to get some really cool goodies.
  • A really cool superb battery charger
  • 1 GB memory card
and 1000 Rs($24.69) off too !!!


It has some really cool features like
  • Anti blur
  • Auto focus
  • Color Adjustment
  • Auto Flash
  • Fast mode, "moving fan" shot, seems as though you have taken it while the fan was still
  • Video mode with support for 640 x 480 resolution

All these and much more. And this was one my dream come true.

More than taking shots for nice occasions, one of the major reasons for getting a camera was something else.
I do a lot of (in my view, i feel that way)networking and installation(linux) stuff. And I badly needed some way to document all those. Or if I got a new computer(Old computer from someone-for me, its new) and wanted to get a snapshot of its antique motherboard, or some other hard to find feature, there was no way I could get pics of them. Note that for old computer parts and no so popular companies, searching for them on the net may not be such a great idea after all.
But now having a digital camera, it feels really good. Hopefully, all these documentation stuff, might be useful to someone someday. But I bet its surely going to be useful for me.

The charge for the battery that they give withe the camera is depleted and I have put the batteries for charging, and after that, it is PHOTO TIME !!!. And I hope to clean up my site and upload some cool photos to my site pretty soon. Also you guys too could expect some work of art in this blog soon ;)


Things on which I will blog tomorrow include:

Amrith's linux install
More experiences with c653 easy share
Visitors from my native place
A cool voice chat with my brother
