a post to life!

Thursday, March 13, 2008
i sincerely didnt know where i had lost myself. there were few things more important to me than knowing, or appreciating the beauty of mathematics was once.
the Feynman lecture down there will help rejuvenate myself in the future, i hope.

but my serious apologies to myself that i had let myself be carried away by considerations other than those that are central to my very nature.
believe me, i dont recognise myself anymore, when i try to.
i am all today i ever wanted, but lets draw the line here, okay! its a personal pact, and this time --it stays!

over to some catching up.I always meant it as a joke when i said the blog to be turning out to be an annual online diary (the almost-alliteration is intentional!), but this is turning out to be true guys! yours truly is so self absorbed that he cant even spare 5 minutes for himself (i fashion you---- DEBANJaN'S paradox!)

try to figure this out though,, this is the liars paradox.
need i say more? what can the liar's paradox be??
"I am lying". this turns yours head inside out once you start to recognise the invalidity of the arguement.
compare this to the no-paradox- "I am speaking the truth!", it reiterates itself allover again!
this semester we had electromagnetism to look up to, and let me tell you that i transitioned from give-me-physical-examples to its-all-mathematical-abstraction to the-field-picture recently.
i particularly liked to believe the electromagnetic field as a action-at-a-distance thing till now.because, you had to have a test charge to detect the field at any period of time right? and theres this principle that says that you dont know anything till you observe--- so i kept on thinking about the action at a distance as my refuge till now, but now i realize late into the semester that the field picture actually has a lot of beauty that i missed out on.
the genetics is going on really welll, and so is the mathmatics course: end of sermon, with the message that i am starting to live life really well now !
