Now a days, the minimum temperature of belgium is touching 0... snow falls r predicted in a few days... in my childhood, i used to dream a lot about these... going to be a dream-come-true event! hoping to have a nice time with those snows... but these snowfalls will be very light... for seeing heavy snowfalls, we've to go to french border... planning to go for ice skating & skiing during these winter days...
few of my friends planned an italy, venice trip during a 4 days holiday... unfortunately, flights got cancelled due to bad weather & they came back & spent the 4 days @home only... i think we cant go out in the year any more... i suspect that most of the coming weekends will be spent @ closed houses only... :(

My Dreams
Sometime back I've gone through an interesting blog Me and My Memory - 1. The author of that states the brain remembers things based on LRU logic. I felt the brain's logic is more complex than just LRU. It has lot more parameters like number of times accessed, importance, interest, etc, etc... Still it is a very interesting thing to start thinking about our brain behaviors.
While talking about brain, one can't forget dreams. Today morning, in a dream, I saw three girls whom I've met 5 years ago in my college. I've seen their faces with the clarity of maximum possible resolution I can imagine. When they asked me if I can remember their names, I said the name of one of those girls & when I was trying to say the second girls' name......... booom... the dream was over. From that moment, I've tried very hard to recollect their faces (of course, at the cost of my early morning sleep :( ) & I couldn't get even a single piece. Now I couldn't even confirm if the name I said in the dream is the correct one. May be the brain is surfing through all the memory links when we are sleeping & bring out the interesting ones as dreams.
Many of my dreams used to have very normal & realistic incidents with only few strange things. I used to break my head for quite some time to know why that thing happened in my dream in that manner. Most of the time, I could find out a really complex but very logical reason for those incidents. Definitely the brain is doing a lot of rehearsals before playing that dream for me. Hats off to the brain!
But few of my recent dreams are quite illogical & I couldn't find out any reason for that. I don't know whether my dream creator is going blunt or my active brain. Anyhow, I'm becoming dumb... that is very clear :( ... In yesterday's dream, I was surfing the net & my friend asked which site I was looking into. I was looking for the URL in all parts of the keyboard, then in monitor & after a lot of difficulty I found that at the bottom of the screen. All the browsers I use (firefox, opera, IE) have URL at the top. I dont know why I searched that in the keyboard & found that at the bottom of the monitor. May be I was looking into the keyboard I'll be using in the future? (crap!)

So the game comes to an end... smart karthi is back with a full clean shave... ok guys, you are lucky to escape this time... anyhow, it wont be much long before I become crazy again & feel like having french beard or something even crazier...
For the time being, bye bye french beard.

My french beard
When I shaved today, I felt bored of seeing the same face again & again. Life should have change, right? So, I shaved leaving a bush around my mouth! Yes! Finally I've executed my loooong time desire of having french beard!
Till then whoever I meet I'm asking how I look with the great french beard. I also torture them to tell me the name of a movie hero who looks similar to me. Poor fellows... they are forced to quote some very famous personalities. This game is very interesting. I'm planning to torture everybody by showing my face like this for quite some time! ;-)

First Blog!
Yep... I agree, I'm far far left behind in the world of blogs! Hope I'll catch up fast. Actually for long time, blog looked like waste of time for me... but, am very much impressed by few of the blogs I came across in the net (http://www.joelonsoftware.com/, http://chitrapandian.blogspot.com/, ...) & finally decided to join the community! Hope u'll find something interesting here in the days to come.
My life has always been an open book. I used to share all the interesting, sweet & bitter moments with my friends. Hope this will make that circle bigger.
Njoy reading my life!
