Steve Jobs, the man who almost single-handedly turned the word Apple form meaning The forbidden fruit to The biggest tech conglomerate, calls it a day. And we, the geeky section of the world, are heart-broken. After all, he's the man who brought ergonomics into technology and made gadgets what they are today. Yes we are making random jokes like :
'How bad is iPhone 5 that Jobs had to quit?'
'The man who gave us iPod, iPhone and iPad finally says iQuit.'
But that is just our sorrows making an expression through humor. :(
Steve Jobs. You will be missed. And we sincerely pray for your health.
And then there is Anna Hazare. Doesn't Anna mean Grain in Bengali? Quite ironic, given this man on an epic-scale hunger strike. Jokes apart, and even though I, personally, don't think this will solve any of India's problems in the long run, this is quite an amazing movement. Anna Hazare could be the only person I have read in an Environmental Education (Remember Ralegaon Siddhi?) who is actually having an influence on our day-to-day lives.
And my friend Rohit laments,
"I miss those simpler times when I could type Anna on Google and get to see steamy pictures of Kournikova."
I understand, buddy. We are on the same boat.
0-4. We got thrashed by England 0-4. I forgot the last time I was so ashamed while watching India play. Dravid was the only saving grace in the chainsaw massacre. Kudos to him. To the rest, I don't have expletives that can justify my feelings.
Personally, it has been a low humdrum week. College hours take out a lot of toll and I can't believe I have gone two weeks without watching a single movie now. Stupid college.
Though one day turned out real fun. With me and my college buddies bunking to go the Coffee House. And, as always, the ambience of the place, that feel of old Kolkata was magical. :)

Us miserly people. We even bickered with the waiter over the bill as an excuse to NOT pay any tip.
We are gearing up for a bigger and more lucrative food hunt next week. xD
Bye now. Will catch up next Sunday. :)
Leaving you with an oven fresh Bengali song that I have fallen in love with since I heard it for the first time.
