Unwinding 2k22

The last day of 2k22. 2k22 has been really good. Thinking about all the things that happened this year. This hasn't been the best year of my life, but what makes this year special is that there were many lows and ups. I am grateful for all the ups and new people I met this year. All the lows of this year have given me a lot of teaching. Remembering all these memories makes me happy, and some also make me sad.

In the beginning, everything was calm. I had my Computer Science studies going on and academics going online. In April, when I arrived at the campus for offline studies. Things were very different. There were so many things that I didn't expect at all. I met so many new people and made amazing friends with whom I share many memories. I also met a girl who is now my someone special. The first few months of college, or the entire semester, were filled with craziness and joy. At the same time, my coding journey took a hit. But it was okay. 

I explored so many places, did things I never thought  I would, and had great adventures, and it was all great. Academics were average. My friends and I went to beaches; I took them to my home; we went to a lake here in the city, and of course, so many great lunches and dinners.

I finally asked her in June, and that's when things began. Since then, we have had great dates and romances. We have special restaurants that we like to visit often. Those after-meal walks and relaxation at night are the best part. She was with me all the time, and that's the best part, I never faced anything alone this year. She really is special.

In July and August, I studied a lot about finances and stocked. I made my first investment in sept beginning. I have been learning more and more about the market for the past year and a half.

The next semester began in august, and it needed to improve, but it didn't. I don't know why but it just doesn't feel like it. I did study a little. Sept and Oct could have been better. There were some hard times, but I got through. And things are much better right now.

At last, in December, I took a trip to the Andaman Islands. It is such a great place. I did scuba diving and water adventures and had a great time with my family. It was an experience like no other. Also, it was my first flight experience, and it sure scared the hell out of me(Trains are much better). I spent my 31st eve with my best friends. It is always a perfect way to end my year, no matter what or how that year was.

First Week of 2022

     I am gonna post a lot of great memories of mine, so I don't forget all the fantastic experiences I had in my life. This blog features how I spent the first week of 2022. Honestly, it was only the 2 days that were amazing. The rest of the week had nothing that special. As I told you in my last blog, I recently shifted to Valsad. I haven't got any time to make friends here or meet anyone. All my friends are in Surat. My original plan was to run off to Surat on the 31st have a blast party on 31st eve. Spend New Year morning in hangover, eat aloo puri for breakfast and lunch, have dinner at BBQN, and some other unique plans for the day. But none of that happened. Unfortunately, I had classes on 1st Jan, so I can't leave on 31st.      So, I booked a ticket for 1st Jan evening, in the evening of 31st, I got to know that classes on new year had been cancelled. A little late, but not that anything can be changed now. I spend 31st eve...

Unlimited Memory by Kevin Horsley -Part 1

  As you already know from the title, this is a book review blog. As this is the first time I am talking about books, let me tell you that I mostly read books related to productivity, motivation or something that I want to learn. I also read fiction but that is very limited. I have been planning to begin The Song of Ice & Fire Series, but I haven’t yet. One of my favourite books is Attitude Is Everything by Jeff Keller and in fiction, I like A Fault in Our Stars by John Green. I will talk more about this and many other books that I have already read and the ones which I will read. You can buy yourself a copy of Unlimited Memory by Kevin Horsley from this link. Before diving into the book, let me tell you about my obsession with memory and IQ. If I talk about my childhood, I would say that I was quite intelligent, but I never realized that I lacked the confidence to believe in myself, a story for another time. Even now, I have a pretty good brain, some might envy it. But if ...

Beginning of My Tech Stack

 Currently, I am working as a freelancer on Upwork. I have had a few gigs. I have 3+ years of experience in developing IoT systems. My tech stack includes C++, C, Esp32, Arduino, HTML, CSS, JavaScript, MATLAB, and Python. I also know Circuit Designing & Testing, Hardware Architecture, Mechatronics, Networking, Competitive Programming, Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning. When I look back, I often wonder how it all began. Very few people know this story. My 13th birthday was about to arrive; it was in 2015. I always remember those October evenings when I wondered what present I should demand this time. What could a 13-year-old boy want? We recently brought a TV. So all I wanted was a PlayStation. Fitting our budget, we decided to get PlayStation 2 in 2015, unknown to the world of GameTech. My mother and I went out hunting for a PS2. We went to one showroom after another, one dealer after another, and all I found was disappointment. Apparently, PlayStation 2 were old tec...
