Yay! It snowed today. I looked out of my window before the snow was cleared.
Everything looked so white. To quote Bill Watterson's (Calvin and) Hobbes,
"Everything familiar has disappeared! The world looks brand new. It's
like having a big sheet of paper to draw on!". That last cartoon of
Bill Watterson is really poignant.
I'd like to name these days as "Postcard days", because when I was walking
outside this afternoon, everything was so still and motionless, it felt
like I was walking through a postcard.
The only final exam for me is on Friday, the coming week. I have a
foreboding that the week is going to painfully long with the exam in the
back of my head all the time. I guess I can make it better by preparing
for it as late as possible.
I have been doing a survey on compiler intermediate representations. I
was awed to find so much work done out there which I don't know anything about.
I am reminded of the Tamil poetess
Auvaiyar's saying,
"What we have learnt amounts to a handful of sand.
What we are yet to learn is of global proportions."
