Stuff....

My dad ended up buying my new mobile for me.So much for my getting a job and then buying one for myself.Actually he' s got me a handset that is a lot better than i could have dreamt of with what i expect my pay to be when i do get the job :P.

My old handset kinda refused to get charged up after i made the mistake of cleaning the plug with a pin.It shorted and died :D

So i go for my hr interview and when i come out see my dad waiting at the gate. Said he'd get me the new handset then and there. And did so too. Got me a Nokia 6100 which cost about 3 times as much as the one i asked for.

Thanks a lot dad. I'm in love with it, inanimate as it may be.

Today was kinda fun in a way. We (as in me and four of my ex classmates) gave an informal lecture of sorts to our junior batch in college.
We had never got along with them in the three years they have been our juniors.Hated them and they dont have a good rapport or rep with anyone else in college either. They have never ever sat in any lecture or seminar or any kind of meeting for more than 5 minutes without disrupting it .

Today they sat for almost two hours and listend carefully and asked intelligent questions.Did not make much of a fuss about the time either. Finaly someone got their attention and had to be us :P

Guess when we told them all that we knew about facing interviews and getting through aptitude tests to get jobs and more they just could not refuse to listen....its their future after all.

And it feels good. Considering that we now gave our juniors the kind of guidance there was no one gave us.

Coming back to mobile phones. I kinda miss my Samsung. Although it gave me a lot of trouble and made me go around mobileless for about 3 times in the one year i had one thing was certain....its battery would last me 3 days with normal usage...well normal for me,cos i switch the backlight and other stuff off.And when i did use the backlight at nights, it was as good as a small torchlight.

The only gripe i have with my new Nokia is the battery. It lasts for a maximum of 48 hours and ther is no way i can switch certain power hogging features off-like the backlight :(
