Surprise Conversations

By -




The clock struck 12 and the cell rang. I felt the vibrations of the cell and I lift the call. I could hear people talking to each other. None of them talking to me. I waited for a while for them to respond and when I was about to cut the call I heard a sweet voice in the background wishing me ‘Happy birthday.’ I couldn’t recognize the voice, but yeah I had heard that voice before. Trying to recognize that voice, I sprung up on my bed and to my surprise the cell was switched off. I was stunned at the first sight of the cell being switched off, but later realized that I had turned it off in order to have a good sleep. 



Was it just a dream? If yes, how come that came sharp at midnight and who was the person talking on the cell? Everything seemed to be so familiar but still everything was different. Every voice in the background was heard but yet remained unheard. If not a dream. It could have been a telepathic conversation. Sounds like exaggeration, but as of now these are the only assumptions that I can do.

  The whole day my mind was revolving around that. The search for the person behind the so called ‘telepathic conversation’ became more and more interesting when I could feel people talking around me and when there was no one close by. This had now turned into a suspense case which had to be cracked at any cost. In a while, there was another day dream, which hopefully I guessed it right was my grandpa saying, “Stay patient everything will fall at place.” These words were very comforting, but I found it really difficult to let go thinking of the voice behind the call. 

The day passed and thoughts kept creeping in trying to figure out the person behind the telepathic call. The birthday wishes from almost all my cousins were telephonic and all were at night. The calls were done and the day had almost come to an end, but the mystery was still a mystery. It was bed time and I lay on the bed still thinking about the voice. There was a flashback of all the things happened in the day starting from the midnight telepathic call. There was a peculiar sound in the background which went unnoticed when I first heard it. It was ‘Lo***i’. Finally recognized the voice. It was Ruchi my cousin sissy. The sounds in the background were of all the cousins together. When I sprung up on my bed my sister gave me the phone saying that I had received a call from my school friend and when I was done with the call, she wished me ‘Happy Birthday’, this was the same voice I had heard at the end of the call.

It started off in the early December’15 and went quiet for a while and then came as a blessing in the mid-January’16. When things seemed to have settled down, there was a surprise call which said, “You have been shortlisted for the interview.” For a moment I was awestruck and couldn’t respond to it, but then yeah, I had a feeling of something good was going to happen and it did. The short listing was on the PAN India basis and being among the few from all over the country is a great feeling in itself. ION T rading; that was the company we were going to give a shot at. The best part of it was that it was supposed to be held in Noida office and all the expenses of the students appearing for the interview would be borne by the company itself. Adding to that, it was a blessing in disguise for a person like me who loved travelling. After a week, our wait came to an end when we received the mail containing the details of the flight tickets and the hotel as well. A little bit...

An idle mind is a devils workshop.

"An idle mind is a devils workshop,isn't it??"             This was back then. But as the time passes, interpretation of these quotes change as well. Let’s try to understand this considering the various stages of a human’s life starting from the childhood to adolescence and finally the old age.                                 No one actually knows what is going on in a kids mind. Moods can be easily understood but not the thought process. Even if the kid is sitting idle or there is a pause in the flow of thoughts, the idle mind can’t be turned into a devil’s workshop as the mind is still in the process of growth and it hardly knows anything about a devil or the evil stuff around. The only thing that their mind can do is give birth to the creative instincts and a whole new world of imagination. So, a kids brain no matter what, hardly gives ...

A branch of Computer Science named Artificial Intelligence pursues creating the computers or machines as intelligent as human beings and it is a true fact! But what is Artificial Intelligence? According to the father of Artificial Intelligence, John McCarthy, it is “The Science and Engineering of making intelligent machines, especially intelligent computer programs”. It is a way of making a computer, a computer-controlled robot, or a software think intelligently, in the similar manner the intelligent humans think. It is accomplished by studying how human brain thinks and how humans learn, decide, and work while trying to solve a problem, and then using the outcomes of this study as a basis of developing intelligent software and systems.
