iLike is so cool!!!

Today, I listened a song from a friend’s profile page using iLike on facebook. After that I have decided to use one in my profile page. I add the iLike application in facebook. Update my favorite artists and songs. In fact I had an iLike account since very beginning of iLike. After adding the iLike I download the desktop utilities of the iLike. And login in my old account after that I tied both of my account together. After that I was stunned for few moments what going one???

The real magical part starts then. Somehow my facebook profile is updated with the songs I played most. Even when I play a song I can see who played it recently!!! This is okie but don’t you think this is too much. In some cases it suggest me few songs that should be in my favorite-list but somehow I missed them. I am impressed!!! There are very few computer application impresses me and this is one of them. I am very interested to see what they are gonna do next days. Here, I am sharing the widget from iLike. Eventually I will add it here.

Host Family

I met an American family here today. They are the first one I have ever met here in Oklahoma. This is one of a kind experience in my life. It was a great experience in my life and loved it so much. You know what my first reaction is: Something is common all over the world, the mom the dad. I am missing them too much today.

Sagar intimidates me about Americans but I found them very close to my mom and dad. I know all people are not same but at least there is a Harun-ur-Rashid and a Shahnaz Parveen here. May be I will meet lot of American family here but you know first cut is the deepest. lolz. I was wandering, so many things are common. May be my mother will be like her if she brought up here, the same intimidating father, the same family value and so forth. The only difference is culture. Just they are from different culture that’s it. I loved it, I loved it so much. I don’t know they liked me or not but I liked them a lot.

They are my host family here in Oklahoma. I don’t know the whole things is all about? But I consider myself lucky that I got such a warm loving host family. They are just wonderful.

Sometime I wonder there are so many things in this world to see to explore. I wish if I could have little of them. I wish if I could walk around the world with my tiny bare foot. I don’t know for some reason the whole thing makes me sad. I wish if I could cry. I am missing you guys, missing you hell of a lot.

Bad Day

I couldn’t sleep last night. Therefore, came to the school early in the morning may be 08:00. Start reading some as usual fucking research papers. Weather is horrible today even I can’t go outside for a while. There was a class at 10:30. After that, those fucking research papers again! It is almost 18:30. I feel very sleepy. The mother-fucker sun will take two more hours to go. As I am fasting today I am hungry too. I couldn’t go back to home before 21:00. A complete mess!

And the most important is my brain is not working. It is completely fucked up. I don’t know what the fuck is going on. I spend the whole day in my office and trying to read, but for some reason it doesn’t work. Don’t know what to do. No I am trying with Theory of Computation book. It seems Hebrew to me. Horrible feelings!

My Chinese colleague already went away. I am waiting for the dusk. Tried with Youtube but not much luck. Every moment seems eternal to me. I don’t know what to do or where to go. It’s like I’m trapped in eternity.

You know one funny thing; I didn't use a single word today. My colleague is horrible in English and I don't know Chinese. It is better to learn Chinese than asking him for English. So most of the time, we don’t talk with each other unless some inevitable situations. :D

All The Pretty Horses

Get together

We had a very good get together before we leave Bangladesh. It was nice party. Rassel & Hasib’s activeness (in fact hyper activeness) along with the Helal’s efficacy made it possible. Special thanks to all of them and to the guests too. Here are few photos from that party.

When A Blind Man Cries

If youre leaving close the door.
Im not expecting people anymore.
Hear me grieving, Im lying on the floor.
Whether Im drunk or dead I really aint too sure.
Im a blind man, Im a blind man and my world is pale.
When a blind man cries, lord, you know there aint no sadder tale.

Had a friend once in a room,
Had a good time but it ended much too soon.
In a cold month in that room
We found a reason for the things we had to do.

Im a blind man, Im a blind man, now my room is cold.
When a blind man cries, lord, you know he feels it from his soul.

Google Insight for Search

Google has released a cool new feature “Google Insight for Search”. With this, you can compare search volume patterns across specific regions, categories, and time frames. This is really a cool feature to get idea about what people thinks right now. You can know which is more popular than others. For business point of view it’s very cool. You can know about your rivals easily.

Until now for me it is total fun. I have tried with lot of keyword and compare the traffic from different regions. I got something very special. I have tried with few keywords that drive little traffic toward my blog. One of them is “social networking”. Using this keyword I compare the traffic from all over the world. Now see the result.

Most of the people of our country are searching for “social networking”. That is very interesting. I have tried with lot of combination but none of the combination brings Bangladesh frontline other than this keyword. I guess you know what I mean. :D Funny, complete funny but it has some insights that you can’t refuse.

First day of Fall

Today is the first day of fall. I had a class today, “Formal Languages”. It is a seminar class for the graduate students. Professor Changwook Kim is the instructor for this class. This is my first class in USA. I thought I would write some of my reaction about my first class. We were twelve students in that class. Class room was adequate for this number of students. I did enjoy the class. I guess this is because of my first class in a new country. I am not gonna give much credit to Professor Changwook Kim. But he is good and he is a very experience professor. He has been taking this course for last ten years.

I was impressed about the crowd. It is the first day of fall and University is full of students. I came here couple of days ago and I didn’t such crowd before. Lot of happy faces was around there. It seems like a festival. Lot of temporary stalls were there representing different clubs and fraternities and so on. It was very similar of my first day at Notre Dame College.

:)

Actually I don’t know what the fuck I am doing now. Last week was a busy week, well not too much busy. Rather I would say I am becoming little bit lazy these days. So I don’t get much time for doing lot of things. I had slept for twelve to fourteen hours every day. What the fuck??? I don’t know!!!

I guess I didn’t left much moribund word for this alien life, because I didn’t know how much it sucks. So I can’t write much. But surely it the cruel part of my life. Either I have to be cruel enough or … or … may be rollback, may be something else. I thought I am cruel enough, yes I am cruel enough but it is too little for an Alien life although it was more than enough for Bangladesh. First thing this life taught me is how to be cruel, more cruel and more and more.

Last week I had written few posts offline. I will publish them very soon. Hopefully cox will setup their connection by tomorrow in my home. I will be working as a TA and RA for the next semester. I met the professors. They defined my responsibilities and duties. What I understand is I have to run faster and faster until I break down. Then I will be declared as obsolete and they will send me back. Sometime it reminds me “Run Forrest, Run”. This is the start.

Sometime I laughed; this is the life I pursued for last one year. No, this is not that life. That was colored by my dreams. That was not so cruel. This is my mistake. I forgot that shits are everywhere, everything shits. And it should be in the dreams also. Let me see how far I can go…

Norman in my eyes

Norman is a little city in Oklahoma. People of Norman seems very happy to me. All they have a very stable life unlike big cities. They don’t have much to achieve or to lose. They are pretty happy with their life. They are doing the same things repetitively and tirelessly. Even they don’t to explore much: at best, Oklahoma City not more than that. This is very common in Oklahoma too. I met one who never went beyond Oklahoma. Norman is very slow. It seems slower than Dhaka to me.

Most of the bread n’ butter of its inhabitants comes from OU. OU is the source of their livelihood. Most of the people are related to OU directly or indirectly. People usually goes to office at 9 am and came back 5 pm. In week end you will see lot of drunken people. They don’t have much room for their entertainment. Few clubs, bars and so on. The most important is Norman will not push to the rat race.

They are pretty habituated with international student. This is because they see lot of international graduate student every year. Lot of international student came here every year to pursue their higher studies. And most important is they like the international students. And they know very well how to deal with them.

Most of the residents are not permanent here. You see lot of young people around here. I guess all are related to OU and come here to stay for limited time.

There is not much place for natural beauty here. But the government tried their best to make it beautiful. Most of the houses and trees are stereotype. You wouldn’t see much variation here.
