Neocortical Impulses!

I came back to my beloved first blog after what felt like a few months. It sure doesn't feel like more than two years since the ice-cream cake! A lot has happened since then though. I am a proud father of a cute little boy now. But, I am stuck in another country because of the ongoing pandemic and miss my family and friends very much.  I was just going through my old posts and they brought back a lot of memories. Also, I couldn't believe that I had 85 posts. Wow! Many of the posts are more or less status updates😆 I didn't remember many of the things I had posted here and am starting to feel old now. What else... I am trying my hand at video game making. Started another blog with my wife, it's called Elevated Nine . Have been living alone for the first time in my life and it has been more than a year.... tried my hand at cooking too!  I guess these are the most significant updates since my last post. I am mostly writing this to myself; this blog has become my diary. I d...

The icecream cake was from Ibaco, movie was Jurassic World: fallen kingdom and dinner was buffet at Kabab Studio. A relaxed day after a long time, all to ourselves. The occasion was my wife's birthday :)

It has been more than 12 years since my first post on this blog! More than 10 years since I seriously started blogging. And more than 3 years since my last post on this blog. Time seriously flies! I was just going through my previous posts, most of them from the year 2008. It was as if my life was playing out in front of my eyes. Lots of fond memories, few frustrations.... Feels good to look back on old memories. Should get back to active blogging. I have started a new blog related to technology: Technology Addict Hoping to continue writing!

Yup, that's what I've been for more than an year now. It also has been more than that since I've posted here. Marriage might be one of the reasons!     Done with comprehensive ophthalmology fellowship at Dr Solanki Eye Hospital.... Currently, I am working in Sapthagiri Institute of Medical Sciences. Those are the significant updates in the past year or so.      Happy New Year😃

      Have joined dr solanki's eye hospital as a general ophthalmology fellow. Have been working there from July 1st and got my first pay cheque today:-) this is my first real salary, with deductions of professional tax as well:-p. During internship and post graduation, my pay used to be called stipend....        Lots of camps that I've been going to have been enriching experiences. Some pics from the camps

and by the way, am feeling very happy to have completed my MS ophthalmology....

http://www.deccanherald.com/content/315728/doctors-stir-strikes-sacred-oath this was one of the articles published in deccan herald on march 1st. i gave a reply by sending an email to the editor. the letter never got published. here is my letter: Sir, This is with reference to 'Doctors have a legitimate right to strike' (DH, March 2) and 'Doctor's stir strikes at sacred oath' (DH, March 1). The rigors that a doctor has to undergo just to become a doctor, to complete his MBBS course is well known. After 4 and a half years of studying and 1 year of internship, the coveted degree is conferred. And then, most 'doctors' have to do post graduation in a field of specialization. During internship and post graduation, doctors are considered students and paid stipend as pay.  Some doctors do not get any pay. So the plight of married people who are doing post graduation without any pay can only be imagined.     And for doctors who are still considered studen...
