My world came crashing down on Friday the 13th, March 2009

Friday the 13th's are always unlucky for me. Read the label of Friday the 13th to know what happened on the previous one. What happened on this one?
Read at your risk- Warning- It's yet another depressing post by Depressed Devastated Dads...Mads :(

Friday the 13th started off on a horrible note, when I got up at 8:15 for my 9 'o clock class and I still ended up being late. They rang the bell 3 minutes before 9, but yeah, I got attendance (after running at Usain Bolt speed) My legs ached hell lot since I'm not supposed to run and specially exert my knees. And as to why I'm not supposed to exert my knees and blah blah, never mind, and any questions asked regarding this will be left unanswered. Don't tell me I didn't warn you.

We got our project deadline extended till 16th, instead of 14th, so we were really happy and Non Dostanta gay. We had only 3 classes, so I came back to my room thinking I would work on the project and finish it off so that I could party during the weekend (with my other project who's deadline is on 18th.Gah!)

I discovered my laptop wasn't working. Now. I adore some non living things in life. My laptop is one of them, and I hate it if anything happens to him (Yes, my laptop's a HIM!!) or anyone bad mouthes him. I guessed the hard disc had crashed (from the blah blah it mouthed in its code language) but I was hoping I was wrong.



I brought him home. Gah. The hard disc HAD crashed. All my data has vanished. All the cricketters pics, MY pics, my SONGS (Wahhhhhhh), my stories and poems. And the worst part is the ganda icing on our mess ka cake. All my research and all the data I typed out from books at 68 words per minute (Yo, that's my typing speed) is all gone. I had saved a little on my gmail, but most of the drafted and edited parts is all gone.

My parents are pissed with me--What did I do? I never saved porn videos or anything which made the hard disc so full that it burst :-(

This is yet another cribbing post, which makes it 3 cribbing posts in a row(Whoopie, hattrick che), and I was not going to make my next post a cribbing post.

But I'm devastated.

P.S- Daddy ji promises that he will try to recover the data. Jai ho Bapu ji ki....

Trust me, I can totally understand how you're feeling right now!

"My parents are pissed with me--What did I do? I never saved porn videos or anything which made the hard disc so full that it burst :-("

Like they say AIDS choone se, haath milaane se, saath main khaana khaane se nahi failta, in the same way, porn dekhne se HDD crash nahi hoti!

When it comes to sympathy, there won't be anyone alive or dead who will have more sympathy for you and your HDD (may you get the data back but it is a bleack chance.. RIP) than me...

I feel sorry!

U can call me your attorney said...

ohh....crashed?! this reminds me tht i hv to put all my important documents on my inbox..bt y r ur parents pissed wid you?
guess laptops hv short shelf life.

Onward said...

tsk tsk tsk...how sad..but come on yaar..how stupid of u not to save all of ur files on gmail or write them onto a CD!!
But more importantly, u can type 68 wpm!!!
PS - Get a toshiba!!

Anil Sawan said...

68 words per minute!! incredible yaar..!!!

and for u and petzie, try buyin an external hard drive, its goin cheap these days and keep a back up of crucial data.. redundancy helps..

Trinaa said...

abbey hota hai bey..teri koi galti nai hai..

btw ye hard disk kaha hota hai comp mein?? :o

vanilla sky said...

I was checking the calendar yesterday, and the next Friday the 13th is in November, so you may expect a happy time in between.

For songs, write them into a dvd if you have that option and imp proj kinda stuffs , keep them in RW cds.I think C drive always crashes, so next time show your love to D , E as well.

Akansha Agrawal said...

Hope your daddyji succeeds!

Computer crashing is something that hasn't happened to me (upto this point * fingers crossed *) but yeah even my HDD is sooo full that it gives me red warnings all over!

Do not worry ji btw... and yeah kabhi kabhi achhe mood mein bhi apne blog to yaad kar liyo!! :D

Sarath said...

Best of luck with the recovery.. Would be a bugger losing so much of data..

And a typing speed of 68 goooood.. I myself have only about 50-55 ..

enchantinganki said...

Ohh..tats sad re!!
i can u'stand.. :-(

I had all my data saved in my pendrive and my bro forgot it in a cafe.. :-(((
and my parents were pissed off from me for not keeping its back up!!

shyad rule hai ki clg life mai aisa 1 baar sabke saath hota hai..!!
doncha worry...i hope daddy will suceed re !!

//I never saved porn videos or anything which made the hard disc so full that it burst

Dear, companies like Seagate, Intel, Microsoft, AMD and others would not have made so much money if the above was true ;)

Haan par I think ke snail pace pe batting karne wale cricketers ki pics store karne se shayad HDD slow hoke crash kar sakti hai :P (Don't get mad at me.. Just pulling your leg.. I adore that guy :) )

All the best with your project submissions :)

PS: Don't want to sound gyaan-giving-uncle types but always keep backups of important stuff. When we were doing our projects in college, we daily used to take backups in pen drives and every once in a while write to CDs/DVDs

life's like tht dearie.. That's why I use sky drive,blame the world wide web and sue MSN(hotmail??) if u lose data.. :p

Btw,who told u tht watching porn meant ur HDD shud crash??or even storing for tht matter..??U have been doin this all dis while rite?? :p must be some other reason.. :)

Izzokkkaaayyy..!!!

Take care..

Nikhil

Random Guy said...

hope ur dad succeeds in his efforts!! :)
btw.. y does it happen ki techies ke lappies and comps dnt crash?
even though we abuse them lik anythin...:P

Dutta said...

Oh .. thats bad ... songs etc can be understood but Data and results from research work ... disaster !!

Don't you keep back ups ?!!!


talking about rant/cribbing post .. it has lot of energy in it .. so no probs if you come up with another one ..

Anonymous said...

Ahh... Long time and what I see here ! Damn !! Damn !! Damn !!

Trust me,I can understand how you feel right now. Have been through this couple of times.Don't worry about the data- its all recoverable at any level of wreckage.Try seeing some tech fellow and if in case,you do not find any,then try calling your laptop company's helpline.

Good to see that you are blogging well in tandom. See you around

abhishek said...

my sympathies...

moral of the story:start storing porn, it doesn't matter anyway :P

Anya said...

and watch "yeh rishtaaa " and see how frustrated a mother can be! these serials are so much fun!

Random Guy said...

Arnab Majumdar said...

I know how it feels when your computer gives up on you, and you've got no option but to curse it while it stares mutely at you (yes, I still consider the computer to be an It, not a He... actually, even my French teacher insists that the computer is masculine. What is with that??)

There's quite a good chance that your data is gonna be recovered... and since this is quite an old post, chances are that it already has happened! Anyways, good luck with it... belated, in case it came a bit too late :P

Cheers...

alx said...

never knew saving porn videos wil lead 2 such a disaster....but then at some point f time every laptop has 2 crash n its advisable 2 back up important data....somebody told me gals wake up half an hour b4 guys n damn its true-they need 2 put d make up on it seems

Unknown said...

awww! i can so much relate to you there... happens with me every six months or so... (I fiddle with him [my desktop] so much you see) In fact, one of the few moments that makes me turn into a believer agaibn from the atheist that I often am... 'pls bhagwan, is baar recover kar do... main tumhara yeh upkaar kabhi nahi bhool paaoonga! :D :D
