Where the heck is my towel?
I’ve been here for 21 years, and I see that people don’t enjoy this cool place. Enjoy with full awareness! So if it’s fun it has a good chance of being here. Though you might find some random stuff which might be boring. If you haven’t experienced boredom, you won’t enjoy fun
I am called Abhishek Dasgupta by most other people and I study science in IISER Kolkata.
My interests (in alphabetical order): computers (a lot) and also knowledge (about almost anything which catches my interest), and reading science fiction, popular science and books in the fantasy fiction genre. My music library is mostly gentle instrumental which I can listen to while doing my work.
Didn’t understand why I’m looking for my towel? Then you must read about DNA. (and if you haven’t read Hitchhikers’ Guide, go read it now!)
