Its a little late post wishing for the new year. I thought to end any further procrastination. The past year had been fulfilling on many occasions. Some of them I could document in my blog posts.
The year end parties were euphoric. Among them, the dept. party was a special one and most cherishing as I could sense the same euphoria among my colleagues and supervisors when I disclosed my personal commitments!
How shall I wish you all for the new year? Let me try in languages that I can manage to speak.
HAPPY NEW YEAR
ಹೊಸ ವರ್ಷದ ಶುಭಾಷಯಗಳು (Kannada)
नया साल मुबारक (Hindi)
明けましておめでとうございます (Japanese)
Let the new season bring out the new spirits, enthusiasm, peace and love among all. In the wake of it, some make resolutions. Well, I don't vie to make any, for I cannot limit them to few!

Marriage celebration
Japanese restaurant (Harima 播磨) and Lord Shiva temple at Mudukuthere
Most of the days in November I spent at my homeland - India, to attend a special celebration - my sis marriage. Thanks to my prof, I could get a fairly long vacation of nearly a month. As expected everybody at home were jubilant, busy in various preparations and eagerly awaiting for the event. I landed home a week before the actual celebration. Though I expected last minute tasks to be handed over to me, thanks to my dad, brother and rest of them that I didn't have to do anything other than taking photos or videos of pre-marital ceremonies, accompanying them to shopping and inviting my friends. As for me, the pre-marital ceremonies were itself hectic with lots of interesting rituals (Shastra ಶಾಸ್ತ್ರ) happening at home. Some of them include dressing the bride each day in a new saree followed by ritual blessings from married women, bangle wear ಶಾಸ್ತ್ರ, coconut leaf-roofed marquee (ಮದುವೆ ಚಪ್ಪರ) in front of home, applying henna (ಗೋರಂಟಿ) on hands and foot and so on. Those are some of the most enjoying and memorable moments as everybody in the family and friends come together and celebrate in unison.

I just now explored the way to input kannada in my computer. Its simple and easy. Just follow the instructions given here. In order to install phonetic Kannada script one needs to download Indic input IME from www.bhashaindia.com Its amazing and works superbly.
ಗಣಕ ಯಂತ್ರದಲ್ಲಿ ಪ್ರಥಮ ಭಾರಿಗೆ ಕನ್ನಡವನ್ನು ಬರೆಯಲು ಈಗಷ್ಟೆ ಕಂಡುಹಿಡಿದೆ. ಮೇಲೆ ಆಂಗ್ಲಭಾಷೆಯಲ್ಲಿ ಬರೆದಿರುವ ಹಾಗೆ ಗಣಕದಲ್ಲಿ ಸೊಫ್ಟ್ ವೇರ್ ಇನ್ಸ್ ಟಾಲ್ಲ್ ಮಾಡಿ.
