I’ve got my vacation coming up in 2 weeks. Sweet hard earned 3 paid weeks off work. Never thought I’d be looking forward soo much to a vacation – at least not until I realized that life is screwed up when you live in the middle of nowhere in a small university town… haha. So what are my big plans for vacation?
Go to Philadelphia and continue my research at Temple.
What! yeah, you heard it right. I’d be working even during my vacation but this time doing something that I absolutely love. Data, statistics and building my CV towards a career in GI. I thought I’d be taking a direct flight but thanks to the airlines 1 bag policy I wouldn’t be able to take my music gear along with me. Then it dawned, If I did the math correctly, even if I take a flight from Chicago to Philly, I would have to start early in the day and it would take about 8 hrs from start in Champain to reach my destination in Philly. Instead, I’m making a road trip – a full 800 miles, 12 hrs and 150 bucks. Unfortunately, a better half of the trip would be spent in the fugly mid-west plains but once I’m in Pennsylvania, it’s a beautiful last 250 miles of the journey (can’t vouch the same for the return trip). I’ll be taking pics along the way at my pit-stops and upload them on the blog. Planning for a reunion show for dFusion (my band) or a tleast jam along for 3 weeks.
Cheers to the trip. If anyone is interested and wishes to hop in during any leg of the journey, leave a comment. I’m sure I can work out something.

- M15x ready to crush some locust
My M15x is finally here. Cannot wait to load it up with some games and crush the competition. It looks amazing and is a big power workhorse. A full review will come later when I have the time to write it up. I thought I’d share the images with everyone
It’s official! I am an alienhead now. I’ve been dreaming to own one of these alienware PC’s for a very long time and finally took the plunge this holiday season. Pretty shortly, I will have a brand new Alienware M15x in my hands – that is if dell does not goof up… Oh wait! they just F*$%ing did 
My order was slated to be shipped yesterday and I was so excited when I got tracking number
And then I click on the tracking number… Lo and behold. This is what I get
I have no f@#&ing idea how my order, which was shipped on Dec 5 2009 to Illinois, was delivered to Newyork on Apr 23 2009. It’s either a big nutjob by the dell shipping guys or Dell and FedEx have discovered time travel. The future is here! 
. (Apparently they still need to figure out the exact co-ordinates while time traveling)
Now I’m stuck for the last 45 minutes (on hold) on the phone to sort this matter out.
