Finally…

Finally… I am able to act.

Zen v2.0

“Any of the great achievements of the world were accomplished by tired and discouraged men who kept on working”

He did it

My uncle did it at last. He did a big enough job. And somehow I feel so happy. My uncle never gave in, he sometimes broke, but his enthusiasm never faded. He made it through.

Today after returning from college, I heard about his success.

And I found something radical; optimism. I know what I need to change, and now I am going to change it, fast!

Losing is just not an option.

Creativity to Max!

The game came out on Oct 17th, 2008. The game has a fresh new air. I was searching for a totally new game, a game that fashions a totally new concept. Generally, the game I am talking about is a kind of puzzle game, a lot old concept but the mechanical engineering style of the game, is totally fresh, and the style of entertainment is truly original!

Meet “World Of Goo”!

Do not be discouraged by the name of the game, it is more than the name. A 2D puzzle game, “of my generation”, that I think may have cost the small development team massive amount of creativity.

The most powerful aspect of this game is it’s top notch physical simulation. The wind, the gravity, the tension through long string, are very real. It appeared to me that this is the most appealing physics engine ever used in a game. The 2D light style of the game is also very appealing, the music is good.

There are many reviews already, so I don’t think, I have to write more on this.

The best gaming resource to me is www.gamespot.com. Gamespot has a nice review of the game, you can read that out. Even World Of Goo go an “Editors Choice” on Gamespot. And the best part is that it is available on online game services like Steam.

Play the Demo.

And Google out more screen shots, plz!

Reward

I had my head scorched by the rude sun for 17 mins, to have the bird out of the silhouette. But my patience was rewarded. I rarely get a good shot of wildlife. Although the shot is not nice, I like it.

The shot

How do you like it?

Mathematical Heart

There is a function, for which the Cartesian graph looks like this,

The graph of heart

I am writing the function again: f(x)=|x-pi/2| + (1/4) +((x-pi/2)/3)^30

I hope, from the picture, you can see how the graph looks like. Romantic function! Isn’t it?

Three phase systems, 5star and music addiction

I am having a addiction. Very bad, as it might harm my ears. Sometimes it appears to me that I am wearing the ear buds all the time. Sometimes my Philips GoGear portable audio player, or sometimes my Sony Ericsson W350. I keep listening! I feel more free. And suddenly I am having a mind to list down the songs that connects me to my significant crushes.

1st I don’t remember.

My 2nd crush: Ami Jare Chai Re by Bhoomi

3rd crush: Hey Shona from Ta Ra Rum Pum, Be With You by Enrique

4th crush: It’s My Life by Bon Jovi, City of Blinding Lights by U2

5th crush: Far Away by Nickelback

I have a new fondness for the Cadbury 5star. I eat those a lot nowdays.

And I understand poly phase systems. I studied a three phase AC system just today, and had great fun learning an exciting engineering implementation. Great!

The shards from crushes still hurt, dreams scream in agony, envy ambushes mind, loneliness dominates the horizon, time appears to be much lubricated, home feels like prison (like to return late from college, but a friend give me a hurry), lost the purpose of life (trying to find it again), study seems to be meaningless, chat with friends seems so foolish and I am afraid that I am losing my ability to function.

Now, drinking a cup of Nescafe Instant Coffee, my sour tongue is finding some respite. I think it deserves some rest.
