The Real Struggle

During the Last couple of months I was struggling with ma exams and FOSSed works. I'd Plant Breeding Exam last 13th but missed Plant Physiology on 14th. FOSSed made me miss it. FOSSed................. FOSSed...................FOSSed ! The FOSSed was started on 13th Monday. Last Sunday Suchetha, Ven. Mettavihari & I visited the Exel world for a few arrangements. Few of our dudes were down there. Oh ! nothing to arrange. After a small talk & a walk we returned to the TLC. We were overloaded with a hell of work that night. no sleep, no sleep,

no sleep......................... @ about 0500 I went to sleep.............

The time was 0600 Ven. Mettavihari kicked & woke me up....... C'mon guys its high time..... hurriedly we reached the venue by Suche's cart (no clutch).......... no one there. still closed.......... damn! ............. At about 0900 The FOSSed was started.


Oh....... what a big crowd

Second day..... it was started about 0830. but I & Dassa was late. we had to go to his department. ...The Apache guy came......
( Brian Behlendorf) At the end of the day... we had ...fun ....fun ...fun... fun.... fun... fun..... We played bowling........................ Oh my finger....... had a funny time with ma buddies.

Finally we finished the FOSSed successfully. @ the end of the last day of FOSSed we had fun time & had a splendid dinner.

Last month I started with ma Geology practical. I had a nice time in Kandy after 99. Met a few new friends & had a fun in hostel. After the Practical we had the field visit to Randenigala. We had fun & got knowledge too. We were guided by Dr. Rohan Fernando who is an excellent character. After the field visit I had an overload of work. Had to prepare Practical reco rds.

Today I see most of my buddies have their own blogs. When I see those I thought it's a nice way to let know all of my friends and relatives around the world, about me. So here I am starting my own gossip site.



Even though I'm in the field of Natural Sciences (Level 5, Bachelor of Science, OUSL) my interest for IT is huge. And I am highly impressed with GNU/Linux, that gave me the extra strength to move in the IT field as well.

So, from where to start or what to include in this blog, is not in my mind yet, but this would be a good kick-start of my blogging.


Life with GNU/Linux.

After I heard and came to know about the philosophy of Open Source, and Linux I sat and thought about it for a while. Then realized that, it is the way how computer systems can be developed in a better way. in a case of all the brains put their effort to achieve a common goal, the open source concept is very useful in many ways. So I started to love it. Millions of minds can't be wrong!

So I became a member of the Lanka Linux User Group and took part in some events organized by them during the past year. The biggest event that I could attend was the FOSS event 2005.

I have a set of crazy friends. And we do lots of crazy things too (Apart from studies and job)

Catch ya later ....
