Life is ...good!!!

well...Life is "Tough"!!!Yes, I know i named this post as 'life is good'..but right now life is tough for me.why?
I am not very good with words..but in this particular case,i can write a pretty good essay about a few things/incidents - which is causing some discomfort to me.But that will be the subject of another post.

Still, I really thank those things/incidents for teaching me some more things about life - the day i get through this, I would be richer ...not by money,but by some 'gyan'.

And because i am going through some discomfort now, i will cherish the coming sunny days more than what i would have w/o all these.


I know its not easy now...but w/o it life would not have been so enjoyable.


Signing off for today,

MAC OS cmd + tab not working!!!

Its 1:41 am and although tomorrow I will be working from home,its pretty late.As I was about to hit the sack, I found some issue which I may need to take care of tomorrow(actually, today as it is already past midnight).So other than taking some early measures for that I see that my Mac is not working, specifically cmd + tab is not working along with the supercool Dock and as most Mac users would agree with me, without this you feel kind of strange(non-productive).
A simple solution exists- just restart the system and most proabably it would start working.But as many fellow engineers know,restarting the system is just not-the-thing we look forward to.

So after some soul searching , I tried the following few simple tricks:

1. Somehow open a Finder window ( cmd + m ).
2. Then search for Terminal.app in Applications.
3. Start Terminal
* do "ps -eaf | grep -i Dock"
* then kill the process for Dock
* in my machine it looked like: /System/Library/CoreServices/Dock.app/Contents/MacOS/Dock -psn_0_45067
4. The Dock would restart automatically ( as probably it is some kind of service driven thing) and tadaaa- cmd+tab also starts functioning.

Goodnight :)

Pteromechanophobia!!!

what is it actually?
To answer your question pteromechanophobia is nothing but fear of flying

Yesterday, when i was coming to kol in a spicy flight, i realized i am still not over the fear of flying 'fully'.Though the situation is better than my first time in a flight,but still some fear is there whenever its time to take off or land.

So, how do i handle the situation?Few common things come to my mind when the plane is about to take off - I have had a reasonably good life till now, I have a life insurance , I am sitting near the tail of the plane - so if it crashes the impact will be less here(no laughing please!),there are so many ppl around me - we'll die together (WOW!!).

At this point, i do a series of things in some random order -
1) look for a person who looks scared already(specially someone older than me)

2) some pretty faces (of the fairer sex)

3) some kid who is laughing unaware of the possible dangers of the current situation


All the above things serve different purposes:
point 1 - it helps me think i am not the only fool here

point 2 - helps me take my mind away :D

point 3 - try to learn few things from them


after doing all these things, i try to look as normal as possible so that the person sitting beside me doesn't think that i m scared.

now, sitting in my room, i cannot help but laugh at those silly emotions - but be rest assured, i would be doing the same thing again :)

Everything's not lost




When I counted up my demons
Saw there was one for every day
With the good ones on my shoulders
I drove the other ones away

So if you ever feel neglected
And if you think that all is lost
I'll be counting up my demons, yeah
Hoping everything's not lost

When you thought that it was over
You could feel it all around
And everybody's out to get you
Don't you let it drag you down

'Cos if you ever feel neglected
And if you think that all is lost
I'll be counting up my demons, yeah
Hoping everything's not lost

If you ever feel neglected
If you think that all is lost
I'll be counting up my demons, yeah
Hoping everything's not lost

Singing out
Oh, oh, oh, yeah
Oh, oh, yeah
Oh, oh, yeah
Everything's not lost

So come on, yeah
Oh, oh, yeah
Come on, yeah
And everything's not lost

Oh, oh, yeah
Oh, oh, yeah
Oh, oh, yeah
And everything's not lost

Come on, yeah
Oh, oh, yeah
Come on, yeah

Come on, yeah
Oh, oh, yeah
Come on, yeah
And everything's not lost

Sing out, yeah
Oh, oh, yeah
Come on, yeah
And everything's not lost

Come on, yeah
Oh, oh yeah
Sing out, yeah
And everything's not lost

Now I never meant I to do you wrong
that’s what I came here to say
but if I was wrong then im sorry
but don’t let it stand in our way
cause my head just aches when I think of
the things I shouldn’t have done
but life is for living we all know
and I don’t want to live it alone
sing ah, ah, ah
sing ah, ah, ah
and you sing ah, ah, ah

...

thats it ...for now!!
