Hi all,
My Orkut profile would show you that I have been changing things around myself, shaking my routine up and my outlook, etc... This has been taking up a lot of my thought and time... A lot has happened in the last 3 months (since my last blog!), let me list a few,
1. Filed my annual report at my work
2. Attended an International Conference in Knowledge Representation and met a lot of researchers
3. My room-mate left for India
4. I left for India in mid-October - met my friends, profs, relatives and many others. It was a nice feeling. For the first time, I was taken a bit seriously... hahaha!!
5. The all-famous economy crash struck just before I left for India.
6. Obama won the election easily.
7. My holiday plans for x-mas and New Year were canceled due to the economy crash (would you believe it!! Its a long story, and I do not know it fully yet!) and I had to make back-up plans.
8. The Indo-US Nuclear pact came through.
9. The Bail-outs took over - The US govt. started making big-time x-mas donations to big corporate companies.
10. The attack in Mumbai - boy! can one forget that!! Its sad to lose that many lives, but I guess the attack has worked in India's favor a bit. If only India plays its card well, it might one of the nails in the coffin of terrorism.
11. I went to Moree, Country NSW, for vacation. It had nothing. But nice to go as a big group.
12. Australian cricket team is going through its worst luck ever, with many out-of-form, heaps injured for long! It is a pity! I love Australian cricket and believe steadfastly that they would come through this disastrous period.
Many more things have happened, which I am not able to remember right now. It has been nearly an year now, since I started blogging. On that note, I wish you all a happy new year-2009!!
Raghav.
