Digging up some old stuff...

I am have been trying for the past week or two to come up with a new color scheme and design for this website. While on it, I thought of trying to dig up some old sites that I had written. I remember publishing my first page way back in 1997 when all I had was just Shell access to the Net and an old 386 Notebook with a grayscale display. No fancy browser and no way to see the colors I was using. Later I did a complete site for my engineering college (VCET) and the first inter-collegiate cultural event we organised at VCET. Next came the websites I built on my personal space at WPI and also the ISO site that I co-authored. Finally comes the present site.

Using Google I was able to dig up these:

Yo.. What a co-incidence that you asked about the weekend? We went white-water rafting and i was thinking about the first we went camping and white-water rafting in Maine ...

I quote that trip every time I talk about camping or white water rafting. That sure was a fun trip. I and Minal spent 2 nights camping in Martha's Vineyard past weekend. Was fun.

That was because of blood sucking courses that we took through fall and winter semesters :)

Cannot forget this one... I dont talk about it, coz it was so scary.. the whole idea of getting lost in a forest in the bitter cold and no way to call for help... Thankfully we all made it back...

Hahaha .. Didn't know we had time or light to take pictures on that trip. Funnily enough I was just reviewing the Miami trip photos yesterday. I'm still trying to find the group that played music on New Year's.

Alright now. Who is posting under name 'Muki'? Is that you Mukund?

Re: Digging up some old stuff...

by Mukund - July 12, 2006, 12:31 pm • [Reply]
You can have Muki or Muks and I can take the other one.

Re: Digging up some old stuff...

by Mukesh - July 12, 2006, 1:07 pm • [Reply]
You can have both. It is just that reading the post by Muki had me thinking if I was drunk when I posted that. Because I do not remember writing it :)

The trip was full of quotes - "Water Chaddi - Water Chaddi" - "No U turn. But I will turn" - "Lets use rocks wrapped in foil" - "No MEANS NO" - "Sab log camping karke undie fry banate hain, aur hum undie sukha rahe hain". Do u remember the name of our raft guide? one of the highlights was she kept telling us to hurry up because she wanteed to pee and our Phirke oblivious to it kept paddling at a snail's pace..

Rotfl !! I had completely forgotten about that incident. At first I thought why is Vishal ignoring her emergency and then when I realized he had not been paying attention I felt like throwing him off board. If I had even our guide would not have pulled him out :) I forgot what her name was but it did start with 'A'. Ashley? Alisha? Remember how NK kept jumping into water only to be pulled out and thrown atop her by our guide?

The other incident that throws me on the floor laughing is Nikhil complaining about poison ivy attacks a couple of days after the trip. Looking back made him realize that restrooms on campgrounds were made for a reason and he should not have gone leaking in the woods behind the tent to avoid walking to restrooms in the middle of night.

I am doing fine. Got an offer and have 2 more interviews scheduled. Started working my internship and trying to complete my thesis. Went to India in April. A little health problem.
