Wish u all happy new year!!

Looking Forward - 2009 !


2006, 2007 and 2008 was when.........

when we got a job.........

when we passed out of college....

when we made new amazing friends.....

when some of us moved to a new city.....

When some of us celebrated our 21st - 25th birthdays.....





When we waved good bye to our buddies...

when some of us fell in love........

when some of us fell out of love

when some of us got hurt

when some of your 'friends' screwed up your love life...

when some 'one' you liked, did not like 'you'....



when we would have made mistakes

when we made life decisions.......

when these decisions turned out to be a tragedy

when some of us felt lonely ....

when some of us made an amazing friends in a new city

when some of us would have learnt to be stronger.....



when some of us would have realized that everything happens for a

reason.....

when some of us let out our anger.....

when some of us never opened up to our friends about how we felt....

when some of us felt so glad and happy to be the way they are.....

when we go out everyday and meet up with our friends...

when we had serious talks with our dad about our future.....



when we missed each other like hell...........

when we missed our mom here .....

when we cried for each other .......

When we celebrated with our friends ....

When we walked around the streets late in the night ......



When we put budget for the next month (but strictly not following it)

Last year has taken us through all our ups and downs we faced in our

life...









2009.......one more year.....A year to....







To find our life partner (for those who haven't yet)

to forget old crushes...

to still fall in love (for those who haven't yet).........

to smile........

to let people know how much u care...

to learn from our mistakes.......

to cry when we are feeling down.....

to follow our dreams.......

to fight against everything for our dreams to come true.....

to be more confident.........

to be more strong at heart and mind.....

to enrich our knowledge.........

to make others happy....



Lets take each day as it comes........

Forget about the downs we came across in the past year........

And remember every lesson we learnt through them........

Let's Enjoy Life to the Fullest............


HAVE A WONDERFUL YEAR AHEAD - 2009 !!

Thanks to Anina for making them available;

Nokia N95 Software Update - v31.0.0.14

Though this update has new features, this update is not hackable. If you’re using illegal apps or hacked mods on your Nokia N95 (I really don’t suggest it) you cannot use them anymore with this update. So if u r using such applications, no guesses to make decision not to upgrade :)

However if u still want to update, here is link. Please share your experiences with this update.

Indian Government asks Operators to ban Chinese and Korean Handsets without IMEI

The DOT [Department of Telecom] has asked all Operators to ban handsets without a legitimate IMEI number on January 6th.

This directive comes as a fight against terror as these handsets are being used by terrorists as they do not have an IMEI number in them.There are as many as 25 million unbranded handsets imported from China and Korea that are believed to be on the knife’s edge.

They have asked operators to block mobiles with fake IMEI numbers like all zeroes .

The Indian Government has postponed the previous deadline for Operators from 6th January 2009 to March 31 2009.

So be careful when purchasing these Chinese or other imported handsets ..
