Yea, the expression now returns the elusive little boolean value – true.
I gave the Sun Certified Java Programmer – SCJP 1.6 (310-065) exam today at a Prometric Center and cleared it with 88% – 64/72. Wooohooo!
While I still don’t fancy myself as a programmer, it is a nice addition to my almost blank resume. KTHXBAI!
Books used: SCJP 1.6 K&B.

There are very few defining moments in life. Buying the EEE PC was possibly one in mine.
Today is the first birthday of my beloved EEE PC, I bought it on 17th March 2008 – exactly an year back. I first actually saw it on display at Croma, the day it launched. It was love at first sight, and the rest as you know, is history. It has been a great year and it has served me quite well. There hasn’t been a single instance where it has let me down. I still find it just as BAAAAAAAP (read: extremely awesome) as I did on the first day.
Here’s the review I wrote a year back, when I got my EEE, just to show you how much I loved it back then. And the love has only grown (exponentially) with time.
My EEE PC Review
One of my best investments ever. Cheers to my EEE!

By the time you read this, I will probably be on my way to Goa for a much needed vacation with some friends.
Obviously, there would be lots of better things to do there than blogging so I won’t be updating this blog for awhile.
But don’t be disappointed, my millions of readers, for I shall be back soon (probably a week).
For now, Bon Voyage to me! Goa, here I come.

I had appeared for the MSP written exam on the Oct 19 and the subsequent GD on the same day. Got a mail that I was selected as a MSP on Oct 31. Now a couple of days back, I got the confirmation letter and now I am officially a MSP – Microsoft Student Partner. Woohoo!
As of now, I am on a 3 month probation period during which they will monitor my activities and then decide whether or not to make me a permanent MSP. I sure hope I can make it. It is a good learning experience, I get to interact with other techies, attend Microsoft sessions and bootcamps, and also a load of goodies from Microsoft. An added advantage is that I now have a high chance of bagging a Microsoft internship, and if I do well as an MSP, maybe even a job at MS.

So finally I have my own blog up and running. I have also gotten a new domain – PathikShah.com and web hosting.
I hope to improve my writing skills and blog about all things that interest me – Technology, Google, Microsoft, Apple, Opera, and also keep you updated with the latest developments in my life. I also hope that this blog does good and gets a lot of hits and manages a PR of atleast 4-5 in the first year. So do bookmark the blog, subscribe to the feeds, digg and stumble all my posts and whatever else you can.
I will try to update the blog as often as I can. Keep visiting it.
Thanks for visiting the blog. Cya!
