I can't write long but just want to update that I am busy for the recording session that started yesterday. Not that I am complaining. The hard work is tremendous and I have lots of fun.
Today is the last day for this recording session. I am happy and satisfied with all the good work and the co-operation from all the singers in the group. It was because of God's guidance that keeps our voices united.
It is winter season in India right now. I like winter season in India because it has not been too deadly cold that I cannot tolerate. It is fresh and cool at night though it is hot in the day. I survive.
December means a lot to me. Not only is it Christmas month but it is also holiday seasons which we can celebrate Christmas with our family, friends, and loved ones. We could also take time to travel to a new place and visit long time friends. I wish I could do this over this holiday seasons.
The results of the comprehensive exams were announced last week on Friday afternoon. That was the day all the comprehensive students had been waiting for including me... and I was not that overwhelmed. WHY? I was over-confident that I passed the exams not that I wanted to boast but I know my capability...I rather not say my passing percentage...enough for me to say that I passed. I am so thankful to God for the strength and wisdom he gave to me for the exams. This is sufficient for me to exit college...
With all the ups and downs which I had gone through for the past two and a half years while doing my Master's degree, I have come to an end of this education level. Excited...yes...sad...not really. This may be the end of my master's education level but this is not the ultimate end of my education cos we all know that education is the ongoing process, right! In our daily basis, we learn and grow naturally.
For now I have done my comprehensive exams as well as the MA oral defense so what's next? Next, I want to return to the 'real world'. I want to go back there and experiment myself again in the education world. Let see whether all the knowledge that I have gained will do me good...hehe..can't wait..
It is the same place but with different name. One from the old era and the other is the post era. Once Mumbai was called Bombay but it was replaced to Mumbai following the new ruling of Raj Thackeray. It raised my attention upon knowing that nobody is allowed to call Mumbai with Bombay with or in whatsoever mean, not even for the Bollywood screens 'cos if we they or we do, the punishment is quite severe.
Karan Johar had used the old name 'Bombay' in his latest film. As the consequence he was intervened by Thackeray and was asked to apologized publicly for that purpose.
What can I conclude with this dictatorship or Thackeray? I bet this blog will also be in threat...phewww...
It has always been like this for the past two years I have been at Spicer. The Master's thesis defence has always been postponed. It would never follow the schedule and it has made me pissed off so much. The schedule that they posted is meant only for re-scheduling for the next time's event. So it has made everyone whoever related to this upset just like me. We were ready for this defence and we just could not wait to finish all this. Since this event has been postponed, we just have to wait even if we did not like it. What to do naaa....
I had been awfully busy these days with thesis work to be done and the upcoming defense this Thursday. My brain was like out of my head...hahaha...if it was the case, I wouldn't have completed my thesis...The truth was I was so mentally tired for shedding all the knowledge I could for the thesis. I am not complaining but the reality is like that. Anyways, the work is completed but the defense is another headache. Though I am ready for it but I might not be ready for the unheard questions out of my field or knowledge. But anwyays, wish me luck...
A friend of mine forwarded this wonderful message to me and I found this to be so delightful so I would like to share it with you all. Hope it makes you smile and will brighten your day.
Through the eyes of a child:
The Children's Bible in a Nutshell
In the beginning, which occurred near the start, there was nothing but God, darkness, and some gas. The Bible says, 'The Lord thy God is one, but I think He must be a lot older than that.
Anyway, God said, 'Give me a light!' and someone did.
Then God made the world.
He split the Adam and made Eve. Adam and Eve were naked, but they weren't embarrassed because mirrors hadn't been invented yet.
Adam and Eve disobeyed God by eating one bad apple, so they were driven from the Garden of Eden.
Not sure what they were driven in though, because they didn't have cars.
Adam and Eve had a son, Cain, who hated his brother as long as he was Abel.
Pretty soon a ll of the early people died off, except for Methuselah, who lived to be like a million or something.
One of the next important people was Noah, who was a good guy, but one of his kids was kind of a Ham. Noah built a large boat and put his family and some animals on it. He asked some other people to join him, but they said they would have to take a rain check.
After Noah came Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. Jacob was more famous than his brother, Esau, because Esau sold Jacob his birthmark in exchange for some pot roast. Jacob had a son named Joseph who wore a really loud sports coat.
Another important Bible guy is Moses, whose real name was Charlton Heston. Moses led the Israel Lights out of Egypt Pharaoh's people. These plagues included frogs, mice, lice, bowels, and no cable.
God fed the Israel Lights every day with manicotti. Then he gave them His Top Ten Commandments.
These include: don't lie, cheat, smoke, dance, or covet your neighbor's stuff.
Oh, yeah, I just thought of one more: Humor thy father and thy mother.
One of Moses' best helpers was Joshua who was the first Bible guy to use spies. Joshua fought the battle of Geritol and the fence fell over on the town.
After Joshua came David. He got to be king by killing a giant with a slingshot. He had a son named Solomon who had about 300 wives and 500 porcupines. My teacher says he was wise, but that doesn't sound very wise to me.
After Solomon there were a bunch of major league prophets.
One of these was Jonah, who was swallowed by a big whale and then barfed up on the shore. There were also some minor league prophets, but I guess we don't have to worry about them.
After the Old Testament came the New Testament. Jesus is the star of The New. He was born in Bethlehem in a barn. (I wish I had been born in a barn too, because my mom is always saying to me, 'Close the door! Were you born in a barn?' It would be nice to say, 'As a matter of fact, I was.')
During His life, Jesus had many arguments with sinners like the Pharisees and the Democrats.
Jesus also had twelve opossums.
The worst one was Judas Asparagus. Judas was so evil that they named a terrible vegetable after him.
Jesus was a great man. He healed many leopards and even preached to some Germans on the Mount.
But the Democrats and all those guys put Jesus on trial before Pontius the Pilot. Pilot didn't stick up for Jesus. He just washed his hands instead.
Anyways, Jesus died for our sins, then came back to life again.
He went up to Heaven but will be back at the end of the Aluminum. His return is foretold in the book of Revolution.
You must share this delightful story!
