Today I was really happy that India pulled out a great victory over the Australia in the final test of the four test series between the two teams.

The exam on 6-november-2004 is : BME 505 :: Theory of Machines II

I am quite confident in that subject and was relaxing a bit. The blogger.com website gave an unexpected error when I tried to post my blog here. Hence I wrote this blog in a text document and saved it in my hard drive and then am posting it late here. Hope the error will be repaired and I can post in the blog itself soon. I can't guess the error there.

I am afraid some of the search engines, I had applied for might have done this. This is just a thought from me and migt not be true. Hope so. I slept in the evening for sometime and woke up at 12:15 late in the night, so that I can complete my nightout.

Thank god. I am writing this blog from the blogger.com itself. Thank you blogger.com. I can't believe this. The first half of this blog was written in a text document and now this part, I am writing now is from the site itself. Finally I got it back. I shall meet you tomorrow.

Today was one of my great days in this semester. I wrote the exam terrifyingly well considering my study limit. The paper was so easy, thanks to Rajagopal for helping me out in what to study and what not to. It helped me a lot and also the way I looked into the exam was heartening for me. I wrote the paper as it was a 'apti' paper. I understood the questions with it's logic and not the physical meaning.

With that knowledge, I was able to do it very simply. I went through the questions carefully with not doing any hurry for attempting it. Before writing the answers for any questions, I made sure whether all the required data as I thought is available and if it is not available, I thought of some other idea.

Today was Rajagopal's birthday and I was so happy that I thought it's my birthday. Anyway, a good day for me. I relaxed very much. I slept at 3:30 P.M. on 4th november 2004 and am going to get up only 6'O clock tomorrow morning. I understood from the exam that when you study the textbook, you get to attempt any question from that particular topic atleast to a level. When you study the notes, you can attempt that particular question better than anything.

Today was a big day again. The exam on the previous day was OK for me. But now is the tester. Tommorow, I am having BME 504 :: Heat and Mass Transfer

I didn't start studying it until now. This has become my fantasy, studying in the late nights and then going to write the examinations half-asleep, then coming here and boring you people with some real bad news. I could have, rather should have done better in this matter of when to study. I thought of starting it the previous day itself. But then I was too irresistive towards browsing. I came out here to the computer center and started doing it.

This time, it is an easily scorable subject. It is known that if we can cover all the theoretical questions in the syllabus, we can ignore problems. The choice pattern in the previous year's question papers tell it. Well then, I need to study, we shall talk a lot in my other blog - http://praveenonsports.blogspot.com

Today, the exam is over. Yes, the mechatronics semester exam is over and I hope it is that's it for the subject for me. Hope I don't get any arrear of that. Though the preparation was not that great, the paper was attempted in a better manner. I attempted many questions. He has given the question comprising of purely application oriented type questions as predicted.

Anyway, it was cool at the ending. Hope I wrote it well to my potential and preparation. I studied until 7:30 A.M. in the morning and went to octa for watching the newspaper through epaper from TimesOfIndia. Today, I saw many good sites like Malayala Manorama. I logged on to it as well. I got an email-id praveen_satya@manoramaonline.com

He is also having a epress. It is a real good software, it seems. They are using it to perfection. After the exam, I went to octa and was browing something. I was checking may mails. Then I went to my room at 3'O clock and slept. I woke up only now. I came to octa to wrote this diary of my own. I updated some of my website -- http://free.omnilect.com/praveen_satya

That's it for today. I dont think much is going to happen further in this day. I am writing this blog at the stroke of the midnight. I'll post again tomorrow.

Today, I wasted a lot of time of playing around. Next day exam was
BME 503 :: Mechatronics

I didn't study that well today. I started studying at 11'O clock tonight and pulled out night out. I studied in the TV room infront of the idiot box. I was watching movies, matches, songs etc and was studying at the same time. This helped me, I think in completing the syllabus. May be, I didn't complete it. I had to search for the things that are to be studied all night and almost nobody knows what to study.

The teaching was a hell in the class. No body knows what he has taught. He is actually a gem of a teacher but he could not make himself impressive to many people. I dont want tomention the name of the faculty. He is the faculty of ICE department and comes for us for the subject.

Any way, let's see how am I going to attempt the paper. People who wrote the paper before told that the paper will be purely application oriented and we have to attempt everything given in the paper. They also told that the correction is going to be linient. Hope I do it better.

Today was also dedicated to browsing. Lots of javascripts are seen today. They were really superb. I saw through the sites - http://www.java-scripts.net and http://www.dynamicdrive.com etc for the scripts. I tried them on my blogs and most of them are put up on my, other blog http://praveenonsports.blogspot.com

Most of them were games that are put up in my site, since it was a page devoted to sports and games. The games like shuffler, snake, tetris, lotto, toggler, Tic-Tac-Toe etc. are put up. The scripts are taken from the site http://www.dynamicdrive.com Thanks to them for having such great scripts online, available freely available to everyone.

I did no other work today. I didn't even eat tonight only to go outside the college gate and having some noodles. With that my day ended. I forgot even to write down my blog for today. I am writing it late. Tomorrow, there is no exam. So, I will be feeling relaxed tomorrow. That's all for today.

I created my own page today. The address of the page is [omnilect webhosting services]: http://free.omnilect.com/praveen_satya

Today was that day when I had to curse myself. The exam was actually easy and since I didn't prepare that well, I could not write it well. As in my post, the exam was
BME 502 :: Compressible Fluid Flow

The preparation was like a hell by me. The last chapter in the text book carries 28 marks as it covers 2 units in my subject. Had I completed that chapter well, I could have gotten those marks quite easily. That's the mistake, I made. I could have done better if I had studied. But never mind. What happened has happened and I should able to concentrate on the next one. The next exam is on 2nd november. So, I have ample time to forget this.

May god give me some concentration. I slept today afternoon for the sake that I will not feel tired for a long time. Sleep gives such a mental relaxation.

Two days back, Mr S A J Shirazi sent me an invitation to join the Orkut community. I was perplexed to see the site. It was so good and well maintained. It has many members. We can always find friends for ourselves according to our wish and interest. There are lots of communities there and you can create one if you think there isn't one of your own interest.

Thank you Shirazi for inviting me to the Orkut.com...
