The Indian Thread #19

<p>Wow! Compared to ‘waka-waka’ our World Cup theme song is just @!&%$#!@#$%&*!@#!</p>

<p>Spring is in the air! As the sun comes back I can feel life seep back into me. I’m a child of the sun.</p>

<p>And it has suddenly just struck me that this means I’m probably going to be dead for the next four years of my life. Unless I get into Pomona that is.</p>

<p>@chromey: I know why you mentioned BU <em>wink wink</em> ! I know her.</p>

<p>

The sun was never GONE to begin with in India. When I visit Delhi next week, that’ll be the most sun I’ll have since October. And don’t give me the whole oh-but-it-is-really-cold-and-foggy-here dialog. Delhi may have been heavily cloaked in fog, but you still had more sun than 3 months here combined. You have NOT seen sunlessness until you’ve lived in Europe or North America. So be ever so thankful. Heaven knows I never was while I was there.</p>

<p>That was a lot of winter angst speaking. Also excitement about getting back to India in a few days. Sun sun sun (and tan) here we come :D</p>

<p>Compscifan-I didn’t think it was too bad. It wasn’t good either, but tbh I thought the first version of the CWG song was worse than this. It’s a bit alarming to see how many people have reacted negatively on it. It’s not worth that much hate. Am I the only one who thinks this?</p>

<p>Relativity, nemo, relativity :)</p>

You know the girl from my school who’s at BU?</p>

<p>Do full Indian’s count Half Indian Half White people as Indians or White?</p>

<p>^ Whaaat?</p>

<p>chromey: yep. I know her course too. :wink:
gotta go. toodle.</p>

<p>Here is an interesting blog I came across today: [Ars</a> Gratia Artis](<a href=“http://www.computer.org/portal/web/buildyourcareer/blog/-/blogs/ars-gratia-artis?_33_redirect=/portal/web/buildyourcareer/blog#_33_messageScroll0]Ars”>http://www.computer.org/portal/web/buildyourcareer/blog/-/blogs/ars-gratia-artis?_33_redirect=/portal/web/buildyourcareer/blog#_33_messageScroll0)</p>

<p>Agree with Nemo and Ani regarding sunshine and relativity.</p>

<p>I have seen people in Mumbai wearing mufflers during December and it always feels like a sauna when we arrive there.</p>

<p>pixie, spring already? Must be nice. I will have to wait until after March 22nd.</p>

<p>[You</a> Put WHAT On Facebook?!? - The SparkCollege Blog](<a href=“SparkNotes: Today's Most Popular Study Guides”>SparkNotes: Today's Most Popular Study Guides)</p>

<p>hehehe. BEWARE.</p>

<p>^I read that when I used to give tests on SparkNotes.
Great site.
My privacy settings were already ‘only friends’ for everything.
I don’t know why privacy’s such a problem with people on social networks.
It’s so easy to make stuff private so nobody can see your stuff except for the people whom you want to show your stuff to.</p>

<p>@perfectpixie
Ah! Alright.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>HAHAHAHAHAHAHA. WORD! </p>

<p>Tippu you’re coming to Mumbaai?</p>

<p>My privacy settings are really strong on Facebook so I guess I wouldn’t have to worry as such.
But I think I should make my self non-searchable as well!</p>

<p>I read that Sparknotes post last year. My privacy settings were already really strong as it were (No one can search for me, only mutual friends can add me and so on). You should do a google check too on your name and see what comes up. It’s a great way to double check and see if your settings actually work!

The worst is Ahmedabad. People take the cold so seriously it’s actually funny. It’s a proper sauna compared to Belgium, or even Delhi.</p>

<p>

You better. 2 minutes on google and one can see your page man.
I tried it once for all CCers here (India forum) when I was reallllly bored but could successfully identify only 2~3…</p>

<p>Aniruddh what about your CC privacy? :p</p>

<p>Check this super-awesome thread:</p>

<p>@compsci: could you find me?</p>

<p>@compsci: you can see my facebook page? Thanks for the heads up. In the evening, I’ll spend an hour or two clearing my web history/presence.</p>

<p>@debarghya: can’t help it now. Chose a stupid username. What to do.</p>

<p>^At least your name is cool. I so hate my username/name/myself.</p>
