Still THINKing ..
Well, the idea came to me yesterday while I was excogitating over the existence and evolution of human beings/mutants while watching Heroes.
After my Grand Viva on Thursday, I had nothing special to do the following day. Also, after another rejection from Google’s side, this time it was Google Summer of Code, I was not in the mood to give my pending projects a hand. So, decided to delve into the brighter side of the life(according to people surrounding me) for the next 3 days. That means giving another shot to completing one season of any of the TV series available on LAN in a day.
One friend of mine told me that first season of “Heroes” is quite a treat to mind a good show to waste your time over, so Arpit, you should give it a shot. Well, I accepted as I always do. :) .. Woke up around 1 PM on Saturday…. had chat with a frnd for some time.. roamed around here and there to find something good to do …… disappointed then came back to room Downloaded few starting episode of Heroes and started watching it never to stop…
As I was losing myself more and more into the plot of the serial, I forgot all about the fact that I have a presentation to give on Information Retrieval on Monday.. Also I forgot to had my dinner ( breakfast and lunch I already skipped)… So was just lying on my bed doing nothing but downloading and watching episodes of heroes… and with the increasing count of the episodes, I was losing the characters of all the characters .. with every new episode two new characters with different capabilities were introduced and it was becoming increasingly difficult to capture the essence of the theme. Anyway, completed the series at 8 Am in the morning (15 hours straight..:( ) … closed kplayer just to watch plenty of messages from Google Talk just to remind me that I have more important issues to take care of.
Well, nothing can be done then, as it was already 19 hours since I woke up… so went to bed :)
