Hi….
Now this is like
dream come true. Yes I loved it like anything. I had my feelings for it. I had
my plans for it. I had everything for it except the way to get it. Let me recap
those days of my passionate love towards technology.
I first saw the computer in my school when I
was in fifth standard. It was the reopening day of school and school fees were
intimating to students with addition of computer fees, this excited us as if we
were going to see something new. Almost everyone paid I think so and one day we
were called to computer lab which is far away from our regular classrooms. It
was kept far because it was the only concrete roofed rooms we had in our
school. We were taken to the lab with all earlier instructions on do’s and don’ts
in lab. One of those was to remove our shoes before entering in to the lab, we
all did it in style as if we were going to the temple. I don’t know the logic
behind it. Then entered into the lab with all expectations. It was a big dark
room, from the entrance everyone were eager to see computers but there was only
one computer. Monitor was like white box arranged over the CPU. We crowded
around it and sir instructed to sit down and he went on explaining parts of
computer and so on. I listened it a while later lost concentration and went
into my dreams as usually. This continued for two months and the systems repair
made us permanently to be away from computer lab.
Thereafter it
took two years to see computer again it was in Nellore, here when I was paying
my computer fees I felt what happened to me in earlier. But it was good the
computer lab had many computers in 4:1 ratio and is fixed with air condition. Firstly
I learned to switch on the computer then handling mouse and started painting
something on screen. Thus it went for four good years. By the end of schooling
I learned how to switch on the computer and some very basics in operating,
that’s all.
In 11th
and 12th I had never seen computer again. It happens to every
student in Andhra self mounted pressure on them. After all hurdles before
joining B.Pharmacy I used to go browsing centers in Srikalahasti.
Then in B.Pharm 2nd
year I had computer application and biostatistics subject for which we had
university lab exam. For this we were attending computer lab, one day I
experienced continous four hour browsing and this made me to think influence of
internet on us. Later browsing long hours were continued quiet oftenly.
Next part of my
touch towards computer was completely because of my project guide Dr. M. Alvin
Jose, man who made me to sit before systems and browse daily. Anyhow I used
most of my project fund for browsing and printouts. At end of the thesis
Gangireddy brought his 60 GB hard disk and 512mb RAM desktop from home. For the
first time in room everyone felt that we had something special with us. Then
with urgency we fixed local Internet connection of unlimited usage plan. From
then started the new exciting world of mine, by then I had finished my thesis
collection and typing. Everyone in room were busy with their projects and I was
enjoying something special in internet. It took me to the journey of blogger,
twitter and most infectious thing “ FACEBOOK”.
Within this
period of six months I virtually travelled different parts of world and met
some exceptional brains. This made a huge mark on my thinking. Correspondingly
THE HINDU too had its effect. Finally left Tiruchengode with 71.25% of marks
and fear of “WHAT UP NEXT”.
Returning to home
really pushed me on to the edge of fear. Everyone whom I know are well settled
and had a clear stratergy for their future. Off course I know they are
pretending but what can I do I am not that good actor. I started my expedition to
Hyderabd where in the city of techies I learned chemistry.
By this I
realized I am missing something most needed things to me i.e, GAdGETS.
Yes I am equipped with the weapon,
don’t worry I will not harm anyone. After a long time of anticipation I got a
laptop in my hands nevermind whatever the pain it takes I will take to my side
and make use of it. I swear.
