Orange Sitara, here is my post!

Articles, Blogging, Fun, General, Leisure May 4th, 2008

Did not really want to write any further posts on those competitions organised by our National Television, but, could not resist after that of today…

stage.jpg

I will try to recap everthing which happenned….

I as quite surprised, as well as most of us watching it here at home, after the announcement of the voting results, the girl there started crying….

candidates.jpg

Come on, its only a miserable competition, no need to do as if u r on Sa Re Ga Ma Stage or any other famous competition…

lol, and guess what? She was crying, not because she lost, but because she won!
Initially all of us thought she was quite dissapointed!

Online SMS Display Messages

Nice innovation, live sms on your screen….

but quite unpleasant for their image, i agree they should display everything,

however, its not always nice!!!

Judges….

Lets talk about the choice of the judges there…
One in particular(to the right in the picture below)…

judge.jpg

On his first appearance before the camera, he was unable to speak correctly before the camera (”ti p gaga”) and how is he going to mark the performance of the candidates???

Female Host, totally lost in her words!

Again, MBC has put 2 new female hosts, which are completely “amateurs” just like the one they put on “Hum Tum” Singing & Dancing Competition some months ago…

Today one of the female hosts talked nonsense at one instant (when there as a tie -candidates with same points )

She told approximately the following:

The first time something like this is happening here in this emission, you can send your sms to vote!lol,

In fact, at that instant she meant “You can send your sms to comment!”

That are the disadvantages of being live!

Orange Representatives

Orange, being the sponsor of this singing competition, its quite normal for their representatives to be there….

Just a small comment (since most of them being french or english, hence not understanding anything!):

Hey banne representants Oranges, attention zotte beze mangue labas!

Mentors

mentors.jpg

The concept of the mentors, was completely stolen from Sa Re Ga Ma Pa.

Be Original! At least prove you can be creative!

Time to leave u here, dont hesitate to add further comments below!

front.jpg

I have also rewritten nearly all the text + added new stuff while removing other pages.
Any additional stuff that i may find interesting will be added in the Cool Stuff section, for example, simple articles showing you how to use any email add with msn messenger or how to compress a picture, the easiest way

blogging.jpg

Innovations in this version:

  • Use of lightbox script for image zooming
  • minimal text as far as possible
  • use of pictures to make the site more interesting…

lightbox.jpg

Future works:

  • use that banner (or another one )or a lighter version of the banner onto this blog
  • use criticism from my friends and visitors to make the site better
  • make a new intro banner, by replacing the existing one, dated 2 years back too!

Have a look now and do leave a message ;)

Happy birthday to me! Version 2.3

About Me, Blogging, Fun, General, Leisure, News, Work-Boulot March 22nd, 2008

Wow…hehe, am a bit older, 23 yrs now :D

0094.gif

Nice surprises since yesterday, so i will start from there itself…

It all started by a lunch, prganised by my project team members

lunch1.jpg
lunch2.jpg lunch3.jpg

Then, i distributed sweety sweets to the whole DCDM 5th floor, got a nice card and pen as gifts…

I didnt expect that the 2nd part of the birthday celebration would be so …surprising!

We planned to meet in Shooters after work and at about 7pm, i joined Dhaneesha, Veronique, Richard, Rama and Nirvini…
After a drink, and of course “bane kouchou kouchou” between those present, who were organising something, which turned out to be nice :D

Suddenly, some (nice & hot) waitresses of shooters came before me with a nice and large cake, with a Happy Birthday song being played in the background, in the whole shooters!

Everyone there gazed at us, with the birthday cake, and its candles…
LOL, it was so ….nice of course, and embarassing for me, with everyone looking at me, just imagine! i dont have words to describe that…

Thnks Dou, Vero, Richard, Rama & Nirvini!

shooterscake.jpg
shooters1.jpg shooters2.jpg

After that small party, we ate at pizza hut, after making rounds and rounds in port louis, trying to find some food at about 10pm!

I reached home, nearly 0030hrs!


I woke up by the loads of happy birthday wishes being sent through sms at about 6am and immediately, i contacted the others to wake them up, koz i had organised something for my birthday since the last days…

A “Randonnee Dans Black River Gorges Natural Park!” Organised by the Underground Committee, under the code name “Underground In Nature Version 2.0″, the first one being, “Monte Le Pouce”

Participating members : Nisha, Vero, Vana, Steve, Chandra, Ravi, Michael, Sandra, Vissen, Fadil, Zainab and myself…


gorges1.jpg
Everyone was worried, because of the loads of rain during the night and we didnt know if we would be able to climb down from Petrin to the Natural Park as planned…
A van picked all of us, as scheduled and despite the HEAVY RAIN, we started to our journey down to the Nature Park Parking, at the bottom.

gorges-forect.jpg

Oh yes, before i forget, thnks Fadil and Zainab for the surprise birthday cake in the middle of the forest, with each and everyone in the group singing happy birthday! that was original!!!

Lots of us fell down, full of mud, drenched 100% and everyone was worried if u would succeed in reaching the bottom, on time and without hurt!

But, as Usual, WE DID IT!

4 painful hours later, we reached the bottom, near the river where Sandra, Vissen and Myself swimmed in the water for some mins, well, at least, tried to swim!
The van picked us back and at 6pm, i reached home, where the birthday celebrations continued!

My next door cousins, Deepa & Neha had a nice time, crashing eggs on my head :D


eggs.jpg

Thats how i have been celebrating my birthday with my friends and family :DI would like to thank everyone who participated today, but also, the loads of friends who wished me happy birthday, either on mobile, sms, msn or facebook!

Version Pirate : On s’attache…

Blogging, Fun, General, Leisure March 19th, 2008

I have no idea of the source of this song, i got that as an email attachment.

pirates-of-the-caribbean-3.jpg

komik net ! moriciens bien originale…
see the lyrics below and download the song from here(2.4Mb)

*****************************************************************************

VERSION PIRATES - On S’attache

When Navin is ill

Il devient hostile

Il veut pas que la presse nous en informe

 

Quand son ti’ vente a mal

Un ti suppo oral

 

Il a toujours l’impression qu’elle  l’espionne

Il Confond constipations

Avec conspirations

 

REF

 

Et il fait tout ce qu’il faut pour

Qu’il l’attache et qu’il l’emprisonne

Avec sa police, qui nous impressionne- même pas

Qu’il l’attache et même qu’il l’assomme

Et rien n’empêche, a c’qu’il la bâillonne

Oh non…

 

D’un chef de file

Il a pas le profil

Mais sur sa santé l’aime pas qu’on le questionne

Y s’prend pour James Bond

En Aston Martin,

Faut dire qu’il la préfère à l’Aspirine

 

Comme chacha il hait la presse

On dit tel père tel fesse (Hé, tel fils !, Ah bon…)

 

REF

 

Et il fait tout ce qu’il faut pour

Qu’il l’attache et qu’il l’emprisonne

Sa cellule de Conne qui nous impressionne – même pas !

Il rabâche et il s’époumonne

Soigne so crise lasthme are coca ek rhum

Oh non…

 

PONT

 

On le sait bien

Les quotidiens , les hebdos, la radio, ca lui fait mal…

Tout a fait anormal

Et c’est ran

Que Calikan

Lui conseille des trucs pareils

A chaque Ercéfuryl

Mais t’es qui ? 

T’es pas normal..

 

REF

Il fait tâche dans son ti caleçone

I’ faut qu’il avale un ti’immodium, oh oui

Il attache et il emprisonne

Si la presse parle de sa cortisone

Oh non…

Il se fâche, faire dimane pardone

Envoy la police pou li pose questiones, il faut

Qu’on le lache car il nous couillone

Couma ene Andrews, bizin fair li fonne…

Oh oui

New improved nomad???

Articles, Blogging, General, Leisure, Nomad, Web, myT February 28th, 2008

Hundreds/thousands of billboards, newpapers are displaying the following advert these last days…

Nomad is announcing that NOW has

  • Better experience
  • Improved service
  • Expanded coverage…

nomad.jpg

So, this proves that they accept that BEFORE this advert, nomad users had very

  • POOR experience
  • POOR service
  • POOR coverage!!!

SO BAD MARKETING for the image of a company!!!

The life of a blogger…

About Me, Articles, Blogging, Fun, General, Leisure, News, Programming, Technology, Web, Work-Boulot February 19th, 2008

Normally, it starts at $TimeWakeUp, depending on the $Mood and $Health of the blogger, for me being at about 6am if my mood and health is ok.

04-19.jpg

Like everybody else, bloggers do have their lunch, but, before starting to do anything, the first thing is to actually switch on their computer to check if there are any new comment notifications on his blog or read the latest posts in his feeds reader.

reader.jpg

and guess wat???
A new user in his blog!!!

new-user.jpg
Thats a gr8 thing, enough to start a nice day!

And now, a look at the stats of the previous day:

stats1.jpg

stats2.jpg

160 Unique Visitors for yesterday!
that makes the 2nd good news!!! but when this num increases to 200, that is something to celebrate, usually, after that the blogger posts interesting things like the post about Meteo Morice, Ki serti!

Next, get ready for work, university or college, or another boring day at home… without forgetting to sms some sweet words to someone or apologize for falling asleep without being able to reply to the last txt :P

mobile1.jpg

Once set for work, practically everything that comes in his mind, is a good topic for blogging.

For instance, the students standing by the bus stop, may be an interesting topic,

bus-stop.jpg

Special thanks to Nitin for this picture (visit his blog here)

Or on the way to his work, just before the entry to Champs De Mars, another original post could be “The famous & Dangerous 4 pedestrian crossings“, being one of the most dangerous junctions in Port Louis.

pedestrian_crossing.jpg

Truly, that critical point in Port Louis can prove to be location of a disastrous accident someday, especially with hundreds of ppl moving around, to and from the pre-primary, the primary school, Champ De Mars entry and DCDM Building ;)

Once in work, as soon as the email inbox is loaded, wow, another new email !
inbox.JPG

A comment that has been just added!

Thks fadil!

A hard day now begins, with lots of work, sometimes with small breaks in between completed tasks, a small cup of coffee, some mins talking with colleagues, helping others to solve problems related to HTML and CSS mainly.

me-work2.jpg

At the end of the day, a tiring day, the blogger leaves the office usually by bus if he finishes work early (5pm-6:30pm) or by a taxi/company car if he finishes late (at about 7pm-4am the next day lol)

house.jpg

Back home, the sister of the blogger moves away from the laptop for a few moments, so that the blogger can sign in again using his msn messenger and chk any mail that has been received from the moment he switched off his pc in office.

blog.jpg

And just right now, the blogger is writing this post and once, he publishes this page, he will add a link to his msn messenger, so that his fellow mates can check out his blog and add comments…

msn.jpg

And finally, he goes to bed, hoping that tomorrow he will get loads of comments and hits!

So,
now you know how to make him happy,
when he will be checking his mail!!!

Note : this is a true story, adapted from one of the days of the owner of this blog….

to my valentine…
