So for starters, let me tell you that I now have a dev.to account ( FINALLY 🎉). I'm looking forward to exploring the awesome dev community and posting a lot of tech-related stuff. 👨‍💻 Also, as I said in this post ,  I just used to track if I learned something new today or not. Now, I track what I learned each day. It can be anything from simple vocabulary to tech. I just created a simple HTML form and a PHP script which updates the data in the database. Other than that, I recently changed the arrangement at my workplace, making it a lot cleaner and spacious. I just removed the extra cot and voila! Now I have a lot more space. So I just flipped the table ( earlier I used to sit on my 🛏 ) and arranged the tripod and stuff for later use. 🥳🎉🎉Guess what? We ( I and Rohit ) won the PICT ACM Pulzion "Web/App development" contest! You can check out what we developed here . That's it for today! See you in the next post! Peace ✌

I know... I know we haven't talked much since last few days. I just want you to know that I really want to tell you what I'm upto. I want to know what you're doing and how's life in general. But the thing is I'm really caught up in the app that I'm creating. Most of my time I'm either thinking about it or how to fix the bugs. Sigh. This doesn't mean I've stopped caring about you or I'm too busy to talk to you. No. I still care. Sometimes, I wonder if I would regret spending so much time on that app that I don't even talk to my parents properly let alone friends. Of course I talk to them but mostly I listen while working on the app. I wonder, what if I never get to talk to you again? I would definitely be devastated and I would think, "Was it worth it?" Probably not. You mean a lot to me. All of you guys. IT, VC, RD, PN, KK, KP, MK, everyone. It's you guys who make me who I am today. I'm really grateful that you'...

So as you might know from my previous post, I made a checklist for the 15 day summer holidays - yeah they were 15 days only :( And here's an update on that. Umn so out of 12 things I needed to do, I did 5 of them which you can find here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1rFBGp4EjieYJEjVMtREZguNyGijFgBWNjkheTetkWIw/edit?usp=sharing So, I completed almost 42% of the tasks I wanted to do. Haha! you thought I wouldn't do any one of them, didn't you? Sorry to let you down. But wait there's still more... There were 3 things which I had to do every single day 1-hour study every day 1-hour code every day ( maybe start #100daysofcode challenge )  1-hour creative stuff every day So I used an app called Loopz habit tracker . It's actually an open source android app where you can track your habits. And, here are the stats: 1-hour study: 5/15 days ( 33% ) 1-hour code: 3/15 days ( 20% ) 1-hour creative stuff: 6/15 days ( 40% ) Average: 31% :...

Finally! Exams are over! Not that I'm excited because I know that my excitement won't last too long. The summer holidays are only for 15 days. Meh. Does it even count? It feels as if they're like you wanna have some? okay here's something. Nevermind. I knew what I was getting into while I took admission in this college. So they're almost only 15 days... technically if you count today and tomorrow too and the few days I won't be going to college, it's more like 19-20 days. You know when you're exams are going on but there you are planning your vacation instead of actually studying? I've talked about it before. Even in  this  vlog... If you haven't watched it yet, what are you doing man? go watch it. So, what I did this time to focus on actually studying, is that I wrote them down. I created a list on google keep of the things I wanted to do this summer vacation. That way I can focus on things I'm currently doing and remembe...

Hey, guys, I made a fun trivia game for google assistant which you can play right now! Basically, it is a quiz on the Marvel Cinematic Universe Here is the link to play the quiz. Let's see how much you know about MCU https://assistant.google.com/services/a/uid/000000b66a81c237 Tell me in the comments, how much you scored and d o share it with your friends who love MCU.

So, the online exam is going on. There are MCQs and it is on 4 out of the 6 units that we have in our syllabus. Its during the exams that our mind want us to do everything creative and cool. It just doesn't like studying. During exams, I'm like I wanna do this.... I wanna do that... I wanna do that too... and I end up thinking about how I would've done it and searching about it on the internet and stuff. You feel me? So yesterday I was thinking about trying a new linux distro I had deepin installed and then I reinstalled windows so the boot loader got overridden and stuff.( I would've done update-grub but I thought nevermind lets just try a new one). Ubuntu? naah fedora? naah debian? naah solus? not really and the list goes on So I came across this distro known as semicodeOS. It's an OS specifically targeted for programmers and developers. So I was like yeah... I can try that but then I saw that it was in early development and last release was in 2017...

 I promise to you my crush that I'll already be looking at you when you would want to look at me I promise I'll never miss a chance to talk to you I promise I'll never miss a chance to be with you I promise I'll always listen to even the smallest of your troubles I promise I'll always help you I promise I'll always be madly smiling at the ground while thinking about you I promise I will ask your friend to talk to you about me I promise I'll bring you roses anonymously I promise I'll talk about you with my best friend for hours, making strategies I promise that someday I'll tell you what's in my heart I promise that that day you'll feel my emotions and connect with me like never before I promise I'll tell you the uttermost truth about my feelings for you I promise you'll be amazed by how beautiful I think you are I promise you my crush that I'll be the most amazing boyfriend in the world. I promise you, my girlfrien...

Yeh zindagi hai akeli Akela yeh sama Akeli meri saasen Akela yeh jahan Akeli meri aakhein Ek saathi ko talashe Akeli meri baahein Usse apne me bharna chahe Zinda toh hu magar Akela bhi hu Apni hi baaton ko mai Dohrata bhi hu Aakhon me sapne mere Kahi ansune na reh jaye Pure hone par Khushi adhoori na reh jaye Chal rhi hai kaise Na pata ye zindagi Kehte toh sabhi the Do pahiyo pe ye chalti Adhoori wo gaadi Adhoora mai Bina dusre pahiye ke Na jane kaise chalta mai Na jane kaise chalta mai

Kinda going through an emotional breakdown right now. Feels like I'm suffering from social anxiety and loneliness. I'm not alone but I particularly feel like I have a companion. Feels like everything is going wrong. I've never felt this before. Everything is wrong. People I love or I care about getting away from me, things thay should've been normal have gone horribly wrong. I'm not able to focus on task in hand. Haven't been much productive lately. Not able to work on my goals. Why do I care so much about people who possibly don't even think about me. Why do I care about people so much. Why do I get attached to people so easily. It's weird. I this world of more than 7 billion people I feel lost. And alone. 

I'm feeling low. And my head is screaming that I tell you this but I won't. Because I don't matter to you anymore. Because you don't matter to me anymore. I remember once i was feeling sad and how we talked for an hour and I felt better... Much better.. But those were the days.. People change. People get busy So busy that they forget about others. Ever heard your best friend saying I was busy, I had work, i had stuff to do, hence I couldn't talk to you / text you. Sounds funny isn't it. Not according to the "friend". According to the "friend" friendship is more about understanding someone. Great. I agree. But when will you understand me. When will you understand that how I am always free when you want to talk to me. When will you understand that I sometimes feel low and want to talk to you but you're too busy to talk to me. When will you understand that its not always about yourself in friendship. I agree we all have thing...

So, it has been a while since I tried making some games and experimenting with game making. Recently I decided to continue my good old RunStickRun ( player has to avoid obstacles ) and make the graphics a tad bit better ( for obvious reasons ). And from the past two days, I was watching some tutorials and decided to go with the free assets available on the Unity Asset Store. And ended up creating this. And it is a windows based game with basic controls like A & D to walk, holding shift to run and space to jump ! You can download try out this Demo Scene from harshsaglani.byethost13.com/Games ( If the URL loads a blank page, reload the page. It's just an issue with the hosting. ) So, now I'm thinking of making a whole new game out of it. Maybe I just drop things out of the sky and the user has to avoid them. It will be like an endless game. I might also make different endless levels. Also, there are almost 60 characters to unlock making the game even ...

You know sometimes it's just you who's the problem and not the others. Sometimes, it's just that YOU don't find happiness around you or from the people around you. Maybe they're happy, it's just you. Basically, the title of this post is "Gloomy day" but it wasn't until 10 P.M. that I felt horribly sad. Wasn't anyone's fault. It's just me that's a little bit gloomy. I feel alone. I have no one. I have no one to hold tightly into my arms and tell them how I feel. Sometimes I just remember things. Things which I left behind 2 years ago. But they still haunt me. Those memories. I still get goosebumps. I still get sad. Sometimes, I cry. But people don't know. Because whenever they see me, I'm always smiling. As they say: The loneliest people are the kindest, The saddest people smile the brightest, The most damaged people are the wisest. All because they do not wish to see anyone else suffer the way they ...

Will never forget these 6 days Few Amazing things happened. Except for the exams, everything was going smooth, happy and cheerful. Until 12th April 12:26AM. After that, everything sort of fell apart. Lesson learned.

So, in our final year we have a subject called "PROJECT AND SEMINAR" and in that, we need to give seminar on recent technologies and develop a small project. So, our guide suggested the topic of our project ("Job Recommendation System") and here we are (a team of 5 people) developing that project. Basically, only we are developing the project. While others would just purchase it from some vendor or project maker (believe me that's normal, at least in our college). So, we need to work hard. By we, I mean me and my friend ( Rohit ) need to work hard. Cuz neither the other 3 know anything about programming nor they are interested in doing the college project with enthusiasm. And here we're 2 people developing a website. Guess what, we named it "JOBIFY". and the tagline is - Find Your Dream Job Easy and Hassle free. Actually that name is stolen from jobify.co.nz but anyway, its for a college project. But is it? Our guide says that, we'll...

So, this guy calls me up and says, "Oye, IMP hona kya kal ke paper ke?" I'm like "De bhai!" and then he tells me about 23 IMP questions which I might end up solving in the exam. I was like okay some of them are the questions I already thought they are gonna come but how did you get these questions? He was like just learn the answers of these questions! I said bata na mile kaha se? So he said "Ma'am se mile. Call lagaya tha ma'am ko dopahar me unhone diye." I was like kamal hai ma'am paper ke 1 din pehle IMP de rhe xD. Then he was like before hanging up, don't give these questions to anyone, just shut your mouth up. I said "What questions? You never game me any questions" So he was like okay, I called you at night just because you shouldn't give it to anyone. I was like you fking IDIOT, if you would've told me that you've got some questions from Ma'am that only you know, and you are telling me...

So, as you might know that my exams are over and I'm free to do anything that I want, literally anything! I could just go scuba diving, or I could jump off from a cliff(with parachute of course), or I could go on a holiday to Los Angeles and enjoy the Christmas there, or do other fun stuff. But guess what guys, I'm here at my home doing just nothing all the day! All the things that I did since my exams are over is downloading movies, I watched Force 2 and Dear Zindagi BTW, Playing Left 4 Dead 2, reading this book called The Prisoner of Birth (By Jeffery Archer) and trying to earn some crypto currency. Litterally lying around all day on the bed, watching youtube videos, getting bored, listening to music and stuff. But still guys, I'm missing out the fun stuff. I don't know what else can I do about this. Help me I'm Stuck! Suggest some ways so that I can get out of this misery, comment what can help me out PLEASE! Btw if you want to see the game I play her...

Also, I'm currently reading this book A prisoner of birth by Jeffrey Archer, its interesting. Currently, i'm on page 129/616 and I hope i'll finish this book soon. If you guys have any recommendations about which book I should read, please do tell me, I'll surely read it! ITS HOLIDAY TIME!!!!! Stay tuned guys!

Even the wall becomes so interesting to look when I have to study for the exams. Everytime I sit down and try to read, a special thought comes to mind either about youtube, facebook, blog, reddit, or even trying a new game/app, making a vlog i mean WTF! Happens to me every time! I just can't get the thoughts out of my mind. So here I am blogging to get this stuff out of my mind. If you have any better Ideas Please let me know! Tomorrow its my OOP paper!
