PRINCETON is calling...! If you think that i am gone nuts... sorry pal... you gotta believe me at times... Sometime in the afternoon, my guide sent me an email... and it read " finally the paper got accepted".. i am happy to hear those words from my guide... afterall its today that my Masters thesis got its reward, though i passed out from IIT long before ... but at the same time, if you give a closer look into the wordings.. the word "finally" caught my eye... its true that my guide tried a lot submitting my thesis for acceptance to a number of journals.. some accepted but we rejected and some which we wanted to accept, rejected us... and atlast the one which we wanted to accept, accepted us.. The workshop seems to be a good one.. LANMAN2007.

This is going to be held at Princeton from June 10th to 13th at New Jersey, U.S.A.
Some words about Princeton.. "Princeton is a state of mind and a place where the mind is valued more than the body." and "It's like another world of it's own where geniuses discuss politics, history, economics, math, and literature. It's hardly believable that some of them probably don't own television sets because they think it's waste of time and a distraction but they probably have computers instead."

I am happy that my paper got accepted and my guide is happy that , the time he spent didnt go waste... thought of travelling all the way to princeton but seems like the cost factor is making its importance felt in my life now. One interesting thing about this workshop is that.. the very company that i am currently working with "Cisco" is sponsoring the Event. I made my attempts by talking to my manager regarding the same. After his small chat with the Director, he said that its not possible for Cisco to sponser my travel.. anyways... whatever happened ... happened for a reason.. and whatever is happening .. happening for a reason only... atleast this answer makes me sleep tonight...
Long live LANMAN2007 and Long live Princeton......!
