My First Love


First of all Happy  Birthday.............................. :) :D to my laptop DELL INSPIRON 5520 (people who need specification can google it).

Today its a great day for me since my laptop is turning a year old .Thank you for being with me in my good,bed,bad times (bad because I have a habit of sleeping with laptop on my stomach , sleeping and browsing is my favorite time pass).

Yes this was my first love , it is and will be . I don't know how I got so much attached  to my laptop but there was something that led me to love this laptop more than my self . I can't sleep when anything happens to it , like  now even when I'm writing this article  pointer doesn't respond properly , it get's stuck in between  ....    :(   ,    I'm facing this problem  from last 4 days so yesterday I tried to reintall the drivers , for some time it worked properly and after some time same thing started again so I restarted thinking it might work properly and go to see , it started giving continuous beep sound ................ maaayyyyyy god , my heart was literally in my hands  ..........really I was almost about to collapse  .So I switched on my Pc which is now 6 years old and  googled , I got some troubleshooting tips but none of them worked, I tried all of them  . As I Had  dell customer care no I directly called them and whole problem got resolved with their guidance through several calls(I had to call them several time and sit infront of my laptop doing whatever they told me ....................... fist time i tested my passions and found that "yes I really have a lot "). At last it was working fine .

Although I got this in replacement for my first laptop DELL inspiron  N5110 which stopped working just after 2 months ,that was a mild shock to me .as it was under warranty I got replacement for it .This might be the reason for me to fall in love with this laptop ,it may be this that because first one left me quite early I dint wanted the newer one to leave too early.

I used to call my laptop 'aatma' which means soul  (yes it is my soul...... ..........please don't have a silent lough ) . My friends used to always tease me when i least  bothered my laptop , Once due to over excitement I forgot my laptop in one of our lab.  

I still remember how I was careless about our electronic/electrical gadgets when I was young (I broke one of our radio and one half broken still working, I think I even broke one of our mixer/grinder). When I Got my PC which was under Cyber age scheme  and when it first stopped working because of RAM problem ,I just started banging CPU with my  fist thinking it might work (.... as you know I was kid that time) and finally my father had to call call technician to fix the problem and then it was all done . Now its working fine..... we had to spend around 15-17 thousand (2 times SMPS ,once Mother board,once processor,2 times RAM).
I think my PC loves me a lot because whenever I'm in need for something it is always there for my help .

I want my laptop to be with me forever.Since it is my first laptop and while purchasing my father had said ....."You may think this as gift to you from my side ...... since you did well in 10th and 12th std" ................ My parents never gifted me anything when i scored good marks in my SSC and HSSC exams and even when i got admission in Engineering and neither did i demanded for any gift nor I wished for any but  I know they loved me a lot and they even knew the fact that I never wish some gifts or surprises , whatever my father said that day was really like golden word to me.

My dream was to own a laptop by my money  (which was not possible since I dint had any source of income that time neither do I have now)    . But this laptop turned out to be special . May god bless it a long long long life .................... lot's and lot's and lot's of love .

Purane kapde....ya naye

It was the last day of Ganesh Chaturthi I was wearing a beautiful white chikankari kurta hand-stitched by one of the local tailors. It was looking so pretty and me too definitely 😉. I actually had stitched it specially for Ganesh Chaturthi but for the entire 5 days did not get time to wear it or you could say it was raining very heavily so I was worried about it getting dirty. Finally, on the last day, I wore it while going to my cousin's place.  All the time I was just worried about what if it gets dirty, my manstruation date was due so I was worried what if it gets stained. Since it was raining heavily what if some car splashed water on me. Not one but a thousand questions 😏.  And to be frank with all these questions I wore it till Visarjan and when I came back home just changed into my old clothes ... started doing all the work wearing that same old t-shirt which has one hole on the sleeves given by a stray dog. My old clothes were already stained with turmeric stain whic...
 GEC day's will i get back??????? No never even if i want i won't get this days back , I Won't get my friends back, neither will i get those teachers, that time back ..... GEC i.e the Goa college of Engineering , there is something in it's name that only people studying  in this college will understand it makes you a true 'Engico' , a true person,  teaches how  Engineering life can change  any persons life . I'm in love with GEC from 1st year on words when I was in first year  I loved this place I loved the rainy days in GEC , I loved the chilling and silent nature of GEC slowly I also started loving people over hear . I was living a true college life , every day was new , every semester was new , everything was new to me everyday  . It was my one of the favorite place . The day every semester ended used to make me cry because there was one counter which decremented the no of days i would be in the college. At least once in a ho...
