Whooping(twice) and waiting


Well, hello once again...
"Good things always come in threes." - modification of old saying: "Bad things..." etc etc.

(Long time no see. Actually, I was biting my nails. Well, no more dilly-dallying. I won't waste time. I'll be true to what I wrote earlier. I won't waste words either, well...no more than I already have so far)
Well, here we go...

Good Thing 1. Federer beat Nadal!!!!!!!!! A harrowing match...Wimbledon's longest final ever I believe, it consumed all my nails.
Good Thing 2. "You will lose everything"...Harry Potter releases this Friday...who hoooo!!!
OK Thing 1. Long, long, very long(ting tong) wait for my DD to reach Pilani - I'm worried, anxious, eager, insane...phoning the dumb office that refuses to pick up the idiotic thing!!

Ahh...nice to let off so much steam...blogging is a godsend.

Take care,
Janus the Janissary

P.S. : More about Janissaries later.

Khush-khabri (Good news)























Hi everybody!!
"Every endless night has a dawning day, every darkest cloud has a shining ray"-Ricky Martin, Private Emotions

Today's the sun's shining all right!!
First thing, Roger Federer got past Safin. Wait a bit...got past?????? He practically made mincemeat of bechara  Safin!
Second thing, I got into BITS Pilani,that also IT Dept!! The institute, like the 7 IITs, is practically hallowed ground for all of India's millions of Engineering aspirants. I simply can't believe my luck man!!!!!!!!

Cheers, from

My Bekaar Results Part 1

Namaskar, apka swagat hai...
"Today is D-day, today is the day" - BBC (on the day the Allies invaded Normandy). 

Same 4 me today? Not quite.
Indian Institutes of Technology Branch Allocation List(whew!!) is finally out. I have, most graciously, been awarded a seat in ISM Dhanbad, a side institute of IIT (Some gnashing of teeth & some resigned sighs, please).  IIT was my dream & I just lost it.

The good thing is, however, that my friends Basu, Shamik & Sarajeet have made it through, and brilliantly so. Sarajeet gets I-don't-know-what right now cuz his phone is engaged throughout. Shamik gets Design in IIT-Guwahati. Basu will get IIT-Roorkee Pulp n Paper. Pretty cool huh?

And anyway, India's teeming with other superb institutes so I needn't fret too much. Hey, it's not the end of the world!!! 

Cheers, 
Janus(hehehe)

EDIT: Sarajeet gets Oceans in Kgp
