I just got selected into Design school. Making it through to the final 15 was one heck of a ride. Now that i made it through i hope the next 2.5 years will be AMAZING!

Redesigned my personal site. Made it a 8 bit tribute. The old design is still the first one you see when you visit but input the Konami Code(↑ ↑ ↓ ↓ ← → ← → B A Start(Enter)) on screen and you will reach the 8 bit one.
At the moment, the pixel background is stolen from Gmail. Will rectify it when i have time. Only then will it be the default design.

Okay, After writing the NID design aptitude test in January, i had to wait a long time for the results in March. Work was stressing me out and i had nothing to be happy about and during a bad week in college i got the news that i qualified for the second round. Man! was i overjoyed. Then the panic set in. 37 students had qualified and i wondered if competition would be tough. At the same time i got sent to Mumbai, which made preparing my portfolio a bit tough. But somehow with some help i was able to make it. April 12th came around, and i had to book a flight to Bangalore to attend the Studio test and the Interview.
The studio test consisted of a Psychometric test and a written exam. I did my best to answer the questions. As an afterthought, i realised i could have done better but i was happy. The interview was scheduled the next day noon. I was the third in the session and was called soon enough. The Panel consisted of 4 members and i started out confident and then a couple of mistakes and bad answers turned me into a wreck. I dont remember much of what happened in the interview and i dont know if they were impressed. I showed them that i was passionate about design and user experience and i hope they realised that. I mean, i am willing to forego a “stable” job for my “passion”. Ever since i realized that i could actually make my “passion” my profession, i have been continually working towards it. NID offered me a solution and now that i am so close to getting in, i am constantly on tenderhooks waiting for the results. I am sure i did my best, but will it be good enough that i can fit in the elite 15 list?

My humble attempt at minimalist view of band names. First up is Coldplay. I am just learning Photoshop on my own, if you want to suggest any changes please guide me. I know this design is far from complete and i am only uploading this for feedback.

Coldplay Favorites by =HermioneJeanWeasley
Coldplay is the band i listen to the most. It difficult to choose my favourite songs among their list. They have a lot that most fans have not listened to. Off late people are accusing them of selling out and going mainstream which is sad.
Coldplay recently released their second album in their current trilogy and this album grows on you. My favourite song is ‘Us Against the World’, a hidden gem.
This share is because i love minimalist posters and just chanced upon this while on deviantart.
Don’t fear failure so much you refuse to try new things. The saddest summary of life contains three descriptions: could have, might have, and should have.

Its been a long time since i last posted here. Here’s a picture from my movie screenshot collection. Its from Almost Famous. Its a coming of age story and i watched it along with Pirate Radio (another wonderful film). If you like music especially classic rock then these two movies are a must watch!
