			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I think we all know about the rumor from a tabloid about Facebook is closing on 15th march.The tabloid ( <a href="http://weeklyworldnews.com/headlines/27321/facebook-will-end-on-march-15th/" target="_blank">weeklyworldnews</a> ) said that &#8220;Facebook has gotten out of control and the stress of managing this company has ruined my life,&#8221; the tabloid also said Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg said in a press conference outside his office, &#8220;I need to put an end to all the madness.&#8221; Yes most of us were relieved when Facebook declared it as a rumor.This picture below shows how Facebook is deeply attached with our life and how badly people are addicted to it.<br />

<p>Isn&#8217;t this an interesting reading ?Yes It is.Well there are so many things right about me in these stats like  I daily check my Facebook,I check Facebook right when I wake up,I check Facebook on my my smart phone before getting of bed,Facebook is one of the source of new for me.What about you?</p>
<p>Just for your info this social networking giant is now worth at $50 billion <img src='http://www.aritrasen.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_surprised.gif' alt=':o' class='wp-smiley' />   and now you can access Facebook by only typing <a href="http://www.fb.com" target="_blank">fb.com</a>.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Yes writing a blog post after a long period and from a new place.This is my first blog post from the city of joy-Kolkata.Hope that I will get time or will be able to make more time for me to write blog posts.Yes it is all about managing your time schedule,I do believe that no person in this world is so busy that he/she can&#8217;t be regular in blogs or he/she can&#8217;t date or hangout with friends.Its all about your wish and your eagerness.</p>
<p>I have joined a company,its my first job,trying to settle down in a new place.I am missing my home,my birth place,the pleasant weather of Siliguri, my friends and those hang outs with them in YMA,my all day long chatting and tweeting habits,my favorite TV shows and live cricket matches and the most I am badly missing my parents.But this is life you need to move on.Things which I am liking about me that I am getting along with new people very well which was lacking in me in last few years.I am lucky to have few friends here who hate to stay home in weekends <img src='http://www.aritrasen.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_razz.gif' alt=':P' class='wp-smiley' />  .</p>
<blockquote><p>Just came know this so true quote today</p>
<h3>Those who have not yet accepted their own  imperfections are the first ones to judge and criticize the faults of  others.</h3>
</blockquote>
<p>Yes I am accepting my fault that I used to judge people too much that&#8217;s why I failed to get along with new people.Really my dear friend stop judging people,this life is too small to judge people near you.If you keep judging the person near you when you will gel with that person?so stop judging people and get along.You don&#8217;t have the rights to judge others and so do I.</p>
<p>Hope this &#8220;City Of Joy&#8221; has lot to offer me.I have only one life and I am trying to live it king size. <img src='http://www.aritrasen.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>Thank you.</p>

<p>I am writing about yesterday and yes it was one of those when you fill touched,surprised,amazed by the fact a friend is there and that friend really remembered you and wished you in the auspicious occasion.Well I am not good with words and expressing my feelings as I am more a technical person (Girls reading this post don&#8217;t you worry I am a full on romantic person <img src='http://www.aritrasen.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_razz.gif' alt=':P' class='wp-smiley' />  ) but jokes apart,yesterday it was <strong>Holi </strong>(the festival of colors here in India) I have not played it but a friend really made my Holi special by remembering me and also by a token of friendship.</p>
<p>Well a friend of mine used to say that someone is your true friend when you met that person after ages and then you both just get along and without dragging on the fact that why you both were not in contact/not blaming and asking the other person why you were not maintaining the contact by any means.To me a person gonna be you true friend if at your first met or in your first phone call with him/her you get along very easily and started playing pranks  without any hell lot of introductory speeches.</p>
<p>and who said that you can&#8217;t get good and real friends in virtual online world?2009(and also the starting of this year) was a year of getting very good friends for me .Came to know some(not much but yes few) amazing people through Twitter and Facebook and yes they are now my close friends in real life too.</p>
<p>If you read <a href="http://www.aritrasen.com/aboutme/" target="_blank">About me</a> in this blog you will come to know I have very few friends and they always played a major role in my life.I know my good old friends are with me and but I also do hope that my few new friends which I got they would be also with me and they would get me whenever they need me.</p>
<p>Wishing you all Happy and Safe Holi.</p>
<p>Thanks for being my friend <img src='http://www.aritrasen.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I think most of us aware of this phenomenon.when we leave the Google search box blank the press the <strong>I&#8217;m Feeling Lucky</strong> button then a decreasing  counter comes up.If you have not tried it try it now then come back to read my post.Actually it shows how many seconds we are away from the next year.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.aritrasen.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/im-feeling-lucky.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-238" style="border: 2px solid black;" title="im feeling lucky" src="http://www.aritrasen.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/im-feeling-lucky.jpg" alt="" width="512" height="123" /></a></p>
<p>Yes it is 2009 review of my life.Its a year with with so many happenings.I think I am back to so many things.</p>
<p>Starting of the year was not good because dad was not fit.He was suffering with lumbar spondalysis  and that time he could hardly walk for 2 or 3 mints.He had gone through a operation in  December-08 but which was not successful.Then we decided to visit Chennai apollo hospital there he had gone through a successful operation and Thankfully he is fine now.But that Chennai visit was a great learning curve for me because there was only me and my mom was there.Mom was always with dad in hospital to take care of him and I had to do take all the other responsibilities.That was the first time I took a mighty family responsibility and which went well for me and my family.</p>
<p>Then I came to my college the forth and final year.I missed out lots of classes and also was lagging behind with the project work.Actually in forth i was hardly in college first was with dad in Kolkata and then in Chennai.As all to be Engineers do,some how I managed with the project works and last semister.After that I finally became a graduate in this year.</p>
<p>Oh I forgot,meanwhile In march 28th I opened a Twitter account.That Twitter was a total crap for me and I was freaking out Orkut.From August I started doing  <a href="http://www.aritrasen.com/tech-off/my-twitter-guide/" target="_blank">Twitter </a>seriously.Gradually I realized what a platform of sharing and source of knowledge is Twitter. Not only Twitter is a great source of news/knowledge for me and its also a source of Great friends.I really got some amazing friends in Twitter and I really mean it.This blog is the perfect is the perfect example; this blog is a product of the helps I got from my Twitter friends. Yes I don&#8217;t want to mention names, just which I don&#8217;t feel good and also don&#8217;t like mentioning names. I think they are reading this post now. These friends are one of the best thing happened to me in 2009.I hope in future they will be in touch with me.</p>
<p>Speaking about the Good, Old friends they are with me and will be with me. Distance with few friends is getting big but I still remember their contributions. Yes it is the case that I wanted the distance back in last year. These small things helped me a lot. For my happiness now I only depends upon few close persons and who are with me.</p>
<p>2009 is the year of getting good friends, getting into Twitter and Blogging, becoming more independent, happy, matured, getting back into old Aritra, enjoying life at its pick and also waiting because I am waiting for my joining probably which I would get soon in next year.</p>
<p>Wishing you all that 2010 would be a flourishing year for you all….Happy New Year.</p>
<p>Thanks.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>After long time here I am writing <a href="http://www.aritrasen.com/aboutme/" target="_blank">about me</a>. Today I will write about my college life. If I ask you which life you have enjoyed (or you are enjoying) at most school or life what would be your answer? I know it’s a tricky one and the result would be an even steven one.</p>
<p>But for me school is the winner with so many reasons behind it. Well my college life was a strange one. In one way I can say it was my biggest learning curve so far and in other way I can say it was a very dull period of my life. I was the same guy from first year to third year. In first year I was having mighty home-sickness. From fourth year onwards I have started to change in a big way. Mainly I have enjoyed my last year because I took a decision at the end of third year, which was not an easy one for me. In first three years I hardly made a good friend as I have seldom talked with anyone except my mess mates. Actually they also found me strange enough. In my college few know me because our team won the robbo soccer championship in college fest.They took me as a self-centered guy who hardly takes any side. That time I used to miss my school friends to share my problems. Yes I was weak that time but not weak enough to effect my carrier or others peace. Actually it was that sort of situation when you are in a hole and you cannot come up neither you can go deep. That time I was reluctant to make new friends and share my problems. I used to fight with myself .But trust me or not I still love those day, I learnt a lot from those days. I am what I am only because of that period.</p>
<p>At last at the end of third year I got the strength to come out. From fourth year onwards I am that school boy-Aritra who was always cheerful, who may not have the greatest sense of humor but with not a bad one, who loves to spend time with friends.</p>
<p>Now I am enjoying life at its peak but we tend to miss that pain which made you strong.</p>
<p>Thanks.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Sorry to disappoint you first, after reading this you will not have a place where you can go and celebrate events. I will blog about  a virtual place where you can always stay, enjoy and celebrate any event like we did in children’s day.I am talking about Twitter. On 14th of this month we Tweeps celebrated the Children’s Day by changing our DP i.e our profile’s Display picture to our sweet cute little kid picture. My timeline of Twitter  was filled with all cerelac baby tweeps . It was a great feeling. It was like going back to your childhood with the help of ‘<strong>TwitterTimeMachine</strong>’.<br />
The Day Sachin scored 175 against I was traveling in train that time the only thing I was having to know about the Score and match updates was my Twitter timeline. I know it’s not better than watching the match live on TV but trust me it was better than any TV commentators commentary or going through any other live cricket score site. Because of all those tweets #Sachin or #SachinIsGod became the no-3 trending topic in Twitter.To me It was a great tribute from all Sachin’s fan. To my knowledge there is no other celebrity or Indian person even came close to reach trending topics. Another instance which is coming to my mind is our Independence Day that day my timeline was flooded with all India tweets and India was in the top 10 trending topics.<br />
Twitter is one gem of a place to celebrate and share along with your followers. When I am in this place I never feel lonely or lack of friends. Thanks to Twitter I came to know so many beautiful people through Twitter….Twitter you beauty.</p>
<p>Thanks.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In Last few days I was reading ‘2 states’ by Chetan Bhagat.In that book you will get a detail description about the culture and people of Chennai city. When I was going through that book my terrible experience of Chennai was flashing out. In January this year I was in Chennai with my family for my dad’s spine surgery. My dad was admitted in the Apollo hospital and my mom was with him. I was going to Apollo hospital from Chennai central in a ‘BUS’. That time I have gone into the bus by front door. I was standing in the middle of the bus then the bus conductor came to me and asked me something in Tamil. As usual I could not figure out what he was saying, first I have told him in English then in Hindi that I don’t know Tamil as I am not from this state and I want to go Apollo hospital, what is the bus fare?  But he also cloud not figure out what I was trying to say.</p>
<p>That time I was expecting the same thing what we experience in West Bengal that you can give the fare when the conductor comes to you or you can go to him and give the fare later. After few minutes bus stopped at a stoppage and a cop came to me. He said something in Tamil and signaled me come out of the bus. For five minutes or so he was saying something to me which I could not figure out .In the mean time the bus went away from that place. As that cop was having communication problem with me another cop came to me who could speak in English. He explained me what has happened. According to him I have done a crime and I have to give Rs 500 fine or I have to spend a whole day in jail. The crime is that &#8220;in Chennai you have to enter the bus from the back door and while entering you have to give the fare to conductor who is seating right next to the back door&#8221;-according to the cop. I have explained him the whole matter that I was about to give the fair and I was having communication problem with the conductor as I am not from this state. I have also told him that I do not know this rule so how could you impose the rule on to me?  I had a argue with him for next 10 minutes but he did not agree with me. So I had to give him the fine. This is one mighty dreadful experience of my life because of the communication problem. I think most of us have faced this communication problem when they were in South India.</p>
<p>Thanks.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-53" style="border:2px solid black;margin:2px;" title="Flag_of_Norway.svg" src="http://aritrasen.files.wordpress.com/2009/10/125px-flag_of_norway-svg1.png" alt="Flag_of_Norway.svg" width="125" height="91" />Norway is a country in Northern Europe and majority of its portion shares it border with Sweden, Finland and Russia. Today it ranks as the wealthiest country in the world as a result of large oil deposits.Few days back Some Doctors mainly a group of social workers were in my place. They were here to provide free medical checkups for the distress people. That day I had a conversation with a Norwegian lady.She told me that she was fascinated by the people of India.I was interested to know about her country. She shared a lot about Norway but the most remarkable thing was to me that- School <span style="background-color:#ffffff;">education is free of cost. Everybody has to go school up to 15 years and if they does not go to school parents would be responsible.Let me tell you that it’s a crime in Norway and police will file a report against the parents and this is mainly why the literacy rate in Norway is 100%(In India Currently about 70 million children receive no schooling, and more than a third of the population is illiterate.). She also told me that Norway spends  7.6% of its GDP on education(India spends a little over 3% of its GDP on education).</span></p>
<p>Yes it’s an abrupt end….</p>
<p>Thanks.</p>
