Was actually looking back into my 6th semester in DA…It was a year ago and Can’t really recall much of it… so thought to write down whatever that comes to my mind about it:
I remember how torn I was… so many choices.. I wanted to do: make some music, play with OpenGL, finish off animation assignments (We had this really awesome professor: “Binita Desai”), made what felt like awesome presentations for some courses… put a bit of me into everything that I ve done… for the first time I used to actually fill in the calendar on my N70..
and then….1 thing I can clearly remember from this semester is how I fought for everything that I wanted … each of which had it’s own way of working out(or not)….
The Software Engineering course project I wanted to do – was turned down by the team members, gave me a hard time, made me realize some stuff, pushed me to do a GSoC on it… which should be out with/for KDE PIM 4.6… I promise.
An attempt to rescue the “so called friends” from getting thrown out of the semester – Failed miserably, showed me how many things I’ve been taking granted…
Wanted to go for the Microsoft Imagine Cup…I was a bit late to register for the contest so couldn’t participate… Another “so called friend” secretly submitted my work as her own and became a National Finalist… I guess I ll never forgive her/them for that and it’s aftermath…… may be there were a few more things I fought for,but I’d rather not look back into them… at least not here…
but this is where, I guess, I was “unplugged from the Matrix”… even after looking back at things so many times, I really can’t see where I went wrong…….
hmm…..anyways… the song “Viva La Vida” from Coldplay… just popped in my playlist!!
I guess I ll sign off and ponder about things…
And ya, here are some of the Animation Assignments from Sem 6….
I Did this a *long time* ago… wanted a screensaver for my Nokia 3230…
I had to animate a galloping horse, but lost interest while doing it…
This one… I had to animate a Whip in action…
(btw. I really don’t have anything to do with Naukri.com… just couldn’t think of some other name…)
I had to animate a walk cycle… I ended up doing this though….
and…This one… I had to animate something that can loop forever….
and ya, this one is a set of system sounds I wanted to submit for inclusion in Ubuntu.. its a WIP for like the past ……so long… :O

Cheers
someone stole your work and submited as their own ? :O
@denny “secretly submited it as her work…” … One should be careful when dealing with such sensitive issues you see.. Especially when that’s the least of one’s concerns at present
btw. you guys are seriously missing out on the animation course…any idea if Bini is coming back next semester?
