engineER...ERR

Completing my junior year,came home with flying colors for summer hols.I was well greeted by the leaking pipes,flickering bulbs,a new laptop and of course street dogs at home.The very next day happened to realize the robustness of electrical home-appliances like refrigerator,washing machine,mixie etc.Almost all are serving efficiently and effectively for a decade.This gave a great inspiration on how to design products.Unfortunately the truth sprung out in a different fashion,when i shared this with my parents.The refrigerator doesnt defrost,the washing
machine's spinner stopped working and quavering mixie.

Hmmm,a sudden strong sympathy ran on these engineering products. Subconsciously,refrigerator ogled me.Of course,i am a bit hazy about the working of ref. But to prove myself,i wanted to repair.Then precipitously ran into the store-room and got a screwdriver.Wait!! first i got the manual of it.I looked at technical and troubleshooting aspects ardently.But astonishingly,i couldnt find even a detail.Gathering all memories of thermo-dynamic cycles of refrigeration and opened the door of ref..The cold breeze hit my chest.Wow!! it was nice which immediately triggered me to switch-off.With alacrity,i opened a box having a mechanically actuated switch for light.As usual,the light didnt glow.

Aaaah, A hopeful gleam entered my eyes i found the problem .Well, its just a loose contact and hence the bulb doesnt glow immediately when the door opens.But thats not the complaint.Well on careful observation and deep investigation,i found the spring in the defrost switch is stuck.

In an attempt to pull the spring out,i used the screwdriver's tip.Unfortunately,the moisture was formed at that place in the wrong time and the tip slipped on that glossy metal frame.As,i was using an enormous force,the screwdriver just flew like a bullet and the tip was sharp enough to cut a wire.I left it there and packed everything lickety-split.And the results were out within an hour.The inside temperature of ref. rose to the ambient.Felt that, refrigerant flew off on cutting the wire.

With dismay, told the fact and apologized to my parents but they encouraged me with a saying
"FAILURE IS A STEPPING STONE TO SUCCESS".After a moment of down and self-realization,
concluded that engineering is a skill that comes by practice and not by years of study.After 2 days,the new replaced the old and everythingback to normal.Need to admit that it was an unnecessary and futile attempt.Still, deep down the heart,something hurts.A working one became a scrape goat for my ego.

Bengaluru Times

Once upon a time bangalore is pensioner's paradise.....
Now, its being called as bengaluru........a youngster's paradise
MG ROAD, FORUM,BRIGADE ROAD..people just go crazy

Instead of following the rat race I happened to go to BANNERGUTTA National Park for a safari.
The 3 cubs (about 8 months) is almost like me (in size).They jumped into the pool played carelessly, the scene took me into my childhood.It was a wonderful experience.Iwas lucky enough to watch the two cubs in a feet distance for about a minute.The eyes were sharp and clear like stars.

Coming to eateries bengaluru is far better than chennai.of course Hyd is god.For me .It was like a beggar got a sumptuous banquet.Believe i had a burp at the end.

Well,last but not the least home stuff...dal makhani,uttappa,pickles and the priceless salad.i could feel i was just in heaven when i ate that salad.All the credit goes to my bro.It was just perfect.

This was one of the best weekends i had in my life time.
