The News from January

Tuesday · 6 Jan 04 · 03:48 PM IST | Posted by Karthik | Category: General

I reached Manipal after Outbound and a short vacation, on January 1st at around 7:30 PM. A couple of friends and myself watched Johnny English, which we rented on CD. The next day Term III at TAPMI started, and we had only two classes that day. I wrote a short New Year update, and in the afternoon, downloaded Hell Revealed 2. I wrote that and some other stuff on a CD the next day. I've been playing HR2 a lot over the past few days while listening to some good hip-hop/rap songs that I got (namely Eminem's B**ch Please II, Shaggy & Ali G's Me Julie).

On 3rd, I received a surprise through post - Tobias Münch's all-new musical debut album, In the Shape of Things to Come! Thank you very much for the CD, Toby, I really like it! That night I got to see an amazing movie, The Usual Suspects, on CD. On 4th, I downloaded Endgame and tried out Knoppix 3.2, which was very cool. It was great to have Linux on my computer again, and I am going to install Red Hat 9 sometime in the future as well.

I also spent quite a lot of time writing these updates (they're huge, aren't they!) in the last two days. Whew! That's all the news for now! Next couple of posts will have a listing of the movies I watched, and also the Doom levels I played recently.

Dark Fate 2 — a Doom II map by Karthik Abhiram

Dark Fate 2 is a singleplayer level for Doom II, replacing MAP01. It's a small-sized hellish level — and there's a walkthrough video as well.
