Down Memory Lane
Posted by anas on Dec 21, 2008 in Life | 14 commentsSaturday mornings are invariably lazy here in London (for me). The day is dedicated to do all the stuff I wouldn’t like to do during the weekdays during heavy workload. Not much of grocery was needed today and the success of Operation Cleanup meant some free time today. Not to forget, I managed to achieve a great feat my going a step ahead on my major coursework (I won’t bore you guys with the details, for now).
So, completely free and at east, I plugged in one of my portable hard drives and started going through the videos and pictures on my mobile phone backups. I do this whenever I miss the great time I had at PNEC and those awesome friends.
The word ‘robot’ forms an integral part of my life, and especially the year 2007 of my life can easily be called the Robot Year. I won’t even give any details of that robot but due to that most of our time (4 of us) was spent in the project lab at PNEC which we had the freedom to use at all times.
I have found some nice videos of the robot during its development phase which I plan to post at some other time, but for now here is an interesting video of how geeks light up a cigarette. The location is, unsurprisingly, the same project lab. The time is probably very late at night and the action is definitely a consequence of frustration. The guy in the video is a brilliant techie!
Isn’t this innovative?
NOTE: I was forced to remove the original background sound

Kia baat ha feetay ki…i miss those days at PNEC especially when we were in tennis court
Hahahahahahaha, that’s why I love Atif. Atif’s hair, Munzir’s car, Uzair’s car, Munzir’s mobile etc etc. Awesome memories!!!
@Awais: me too!
@Talha: Everyone loves Atif, and to prove that I have another veryyy special video which I will forward to you guys by e-mail soon. Trust me, you’ll love it
Munzir’s car…Should I post about the events of that car during the Robotic Age when BB was attacked for the first time?

Of course I remember Munzir! Sobi ka bhai na? They weren’t people you could forget easily…. neither their car… OR their driving!
Yar abhi YouTube chal nahi raha idhar, but I’ve also uploaded a couple videos of our robot to YouTube. It’s funny how people find even that impressive
