Unlucky luck!!

Luck- Defined by variables good or bad[say L:) and L:( ]
This gives rise to an length 4 truth table along with the translation below:

L:) L:) ->The World at your feet!![You're a like jubiliant zoozoo in love]
L:) L:( ->You're just about fine.[You're a zoozoo who's had trouble understanding his bills]
L:( L:) ->DITTO![ "" ""]
L:( L:( ->Dude!You're screwed! [You're the zoozoo who reads the market updates from the newspaper and has a stroke]

I've been in category 2 and 3 for the past few years with occasional outbursts of candition 1. But the periodicity of the 4th condition is almost baffling nowadays. The periodicity being 6 months.
Humans use a concept called 'lucky number' to foolishly increase their chances of being in category 1. And I use a concept called 'unlucky number' to stay away from category 4

104

The number which brews within me, a storm of uncertainity and anxiety. A number I stay away from more than a 420 or a 21/12/2012!
I hate this number!In case you're wondering why..Here's why--It is the one classroom in BMSCE that always manages to threaten my chances of clearing a paper despite the level of easiness/difficulty it poses to others. One foot into the classroom and I know something is amiss. My adrenaline level peaks expecting a bloody onslaught. Stupid brain of mine. How I wish I could let it know that it is the neurons that need to run at blinding speeds..not my legs!! Ironicaly, with each new dose of adrenaline being pumped into my body, my legs harden and refuse to embrace the darkness that stands to obliterate me completely. The exam becomes a war with only one casualty -just me!
*Sigh*
How I wish I could obliterate the classroom somehow!:(



PS-If the date of birth is a lucky number, in my case, my lucky number== my unlucky number!
Hmph!!Talk about luck!!:X

Shit!!;)

The following promises to be a butt-load of crap..but then again..like the Surf Excel ['Daag achhe hain 'ad]..I imagine the advertisers of Harpic saying 'Crap acche hain!' to convince myself in order to keep up with the weird nonsense my mind is conjuring up right now.Wow..I'm unminding my own mind!! --My mind became the butt of the kannada jokes..the likes of which are--[Diversion No 1]

Suryan ge torcha?!


Conductor ge ticketaa?!:P


You get the idea!

Before Diversion 2 comes along I'll get to the main point of this post..SHIT!Just a couple of days ago, I happened to watch this movie-500 days of Summer. Absolute bullshit!Well, boy likes girl. Girl likes boy. A couple of days and a dozen of make-out sessions later-Boy's fallen for the girl, loves her, skips along in the park, hugs strangers in his merriment on having found the perfect girl.[*yawn*]The girl says 'Err..this is going nowhere. Lets just be friends'![*Way to go girl!Clap clap clap!*] Well you get the idea. Nothing profound about the movie --except for one dialogue; The dialogue delivered by the love-crazed maniac after being dumped by 'the one'.He says[while referring to his job as a greeting card writer] -- 'There's enough shit in this world without me contributing to it." I paused the player, stared outside the window for one long moment, an act which my family would've mistaken for a momentary black-out taking over me had they been in the room] ..I asked myself if the same was true in my case. Would there be no difference if I stopped contributing shit to this world?![And for all you extra creative[?] people shit is not a similie for potty!!]
The answer clearly rang in my head!And for the first time in ages I got an affirmative, almost encouraging answer from somewhere within the depths of my [?] [head mind or heart?!It's all very confusing when people use different allusions to the same squeaky, irritating voice that originates in places unknown within the body!--crap!Diversion No -2...Dammit!]
As I was saying I got an affirmative, almost encouraging answer from ___[I give up! you decide!]It seemed to show confidence and pride in my skills of making up shit! And for the first time ever in my pessimistic existence I found hope; a hope that guaranteed the fact that I was sent to planet earth for a special purpose..even if it meant making up shit. ![Yay mee!!]
Okay..Unminding my mind in order to mind it was kinda weird.Now I'm minding it to help it unmind itself..
Shit time up! Sadly, I've to allot my time to the different kinds of crap that confounds me. The crap being my course "Optic Fibres" in this case..Peace Out Amigos!!:)


PS-[Legal Diversion no 3 :P]If you're grumbling by now, I'd warned you that it was going to be a butt-load of crap!
Oh! Talking about crap reminds me-A kickass 'crap' joke features in Paa..[the real crap--don't be alarmed though- nothing graphical has been included;)]

30 things people know( or dont know) about me

Okay..Here's an idea I've totally ripped off from another blog I saw..But the idea was great nonetheless..So..what the heck!

1) I need to know my life will be adventurous and colourful at all times..Else I hyperventilate-and droop down in misery and depression.
2)I don't brush my teeth in the night, unless I need to pretend and establish a good impression on my dental hygiene on my company.
3)I' m a total sucker for romantic movies..Anything lovey dovey always finds itself on my list of downloadable movies.
4)I hate people who're two faced..And hate that I've to be the same sometimes..
5)I love waking up and staring out of my window and just let the moment be.
6)I hate it when I can't retain friends..One of the most depressing things on planet earth.
7)I love it when I wake up at 9 am on a rainy Sunday and know that the day ahead will be an absolute bliss.
8)I secretly hope that the people I love don't ever get mad at me...else I'd mentally be handicapped.
9)I hope that the world will end on 2012..!Coz I know I wont die somehow n I'l find my Edward!!
10)I love talking to Manisha and Nandini because I know no matter what we talk we'll never end up being mad or angry.It sorts in the end!:)
11)I dream of a perfect proposal..Almost superhuman![Yes yes..not like me at all you'd say..We'll you dunno me enough I'd say):P
12)I'd rather be funny than pretty.
13)I know I'll have a fantastic career somehow..Despite how badly I've been faring in every aspect of life.
14)I'd say yes to Ryan Gosling in a heartbeat.
15)I adore songs that refurbish my idea of a perfect life.
16)I secretly hoped to be an actress someday..I see the hope fading away now.
17)If I had to choose between a movie at the cinemas and a quiet day at home..I'd choose home..
18)I love writing poems when I'm inspired.
20)I hate it when my friends aren't on the same level as I am don't understand what I'm going through.
21)I imagine myself sitting behind a conference table, and talk in a manner so suave that every word meant to be a whip on my peeps' ass[yeah!I'll have my own peeps!]becomes source of inspiration to them..[Wish that happens!]
22)I'm offended by sexists[misogynists to be particular]!For God's sakes!We're all human!
23)On some days..a pair of my favourite jeans is all I need to pick my confidence up.
24)I'm a loner..through and through..And enjoy talking to very few people.I categorize people into just two categories..boring and interesting.
25)I sometimes wish the person I like could read my mind and I could read his.. But then again I'd lose interest in the person ..Yeah..that's part of the deal..Cant take in too much of a human..see!That's why I need a superhuman!
26)I find talking to certain people stressful..but not talking to them makes me even more stressful!
27)If you want to make me happy, just take me to a gol gappa corner. If you need to piss me off, talk about why men are better than women.
28)You lose my trust and the deal is off..Snip..Snip..Snip..that's how long it's going to take..
29)I find it funny when people call me rude..:D Not that I'm not..its just that they deserve my rudeness somehow :P
30)I need to login to my email account atleast twice a day.It's a part of who I am and the world I live in.


PS--I don't know why I wrote what Ive written above.,..Unfortunately, I'm more complex than a strand of DNA. These 30 things make up .00003% of who I am..:D

**** **** ****!!!!

Never has such a string of profanities sprung up in my mind, in so little a time; and never have I exerted so much self-control upon my mouth to keep them from materializing into audible sound waves . I now know the reason behind the existence of the plethora of swear words in every possible language and dialect known to human kind. This new discovery makes German curious and intriguing to me. If I were a German at the afore mentioned moment, my tongue would probably have been cut into a million pieces ( Not in India, the Middle East may be :P)
In an attempt to get away from all the unpleasantness and disappointment, I write this post.Unfortunately my brain's dead,[not that it was ever fully alive anyway] and all I have are more expletives springing up.. It is ironic that one of the most disappointing days should be associated with the birthday of someone I really like![PS-Vas!!It's Carlisle's b'day today!!Just found out:)]

She's writhing in pain..
She's contorting in agony.
For her,
The loss isn't fathomable.
The silence unbearable.
The stillness unconscionable .
Refusing to believe what befell her,
Refusing to shake off her mental stupor,
Refusing to let her tears confirm the reality,
She sits with her vestige of sanity.
With a force so compelling,
With a voice so endearing,
With a passion so pure ,
She calls out for him, her panacea, her only cure;
She breathes fire at her oncoming fate,
Refusing to let the monstrous destiny have its sate;
She wanders in the wilderness of her mind,
And with every falling sand of time
She sees his face,ever so loving and kind,
And so, with every reminiscence,
She finds her resolve untwine from askance;
Spewing out of her protective shield,her seine;
She brings him up from the murky pool of deadly pain;
Caressing him in her arms,
Rejuvenating him with a love unparalleled ;
He looks at her with eyes full of innocence,
With a joy and pride devoid of any pretence;
The passionate kiss they share barely expresses their joy,
Their entwined bodies hardly encompass their delight,
And Moi, having never seen such a beautiful sight
Wonders..
Ah!what chance does kismet have against love's mighty might!

Post 3:Internal Affairs!

OK..This is going to be a little tricky..My memory is betraying me.It's giving haath !![Ashwin coined that term by the way:P]I'm not sure if we went to Muninagar before or after internals.Lets not digress.Assuming that the date doesn't matter I'll carry on with my monologue.
I've somehow always always been staunch and diligent as far as internals have been concerned.I've been ridiculed a billion times for that,even been derided a couple of times.And unsurprisingly I haven't made any attempt to change that. You see the reason I'm so staunch is simply because I'm a big fat lout when it comes to unleashing my non-existent skills that my classmates are endowed with. Their success stories span so far and wide that even I, the stubborn critic can't help but admire and laud them. I thought I'll spread the joy and make their exploits well known;)
The paragon for people like me definitely has to be..Manju and Arpitha
Arpitha for her flawless imitation of being the perfect student and her stupendous confidence with which she carries out her work .[And also for having written internals for the wrong paper!!!Beat that!!!]
Manju for being the boldest, unabashedly reckless student who was honored by the Principal himself with the coveted novel 'Alchemist' for having figured in the list of the top scoring students!!:P
Notable among the others are Nandini, for her eclectic mix of talent in understanding the psyche of the teachers to predict the questions that would appear and her compass like sense-of-direction while determining the seating arrangements of the people who surround her.
Deepika, relying on her intuition to decide if the time and is favourable for copying ,Archana for her innovative answer hunting techniques. Chotu,Manisha,Ipsita,me are on the side of boring virtue and bland goodness.
Micros, Writing Out of the class , and endless hours of discussion for procuring the question paper..Man!!I thank my stars for not having made my friends as boring as I am!Glad that their esoteric talents have never failed to impress upon the importance of courage and confidence in me. I hope this continues for all eternity!Or atleast be imprinted in my unreliable memory for ever!:)

Post 2:Unemployment or Funemployment?!!

Well the saga of 7Th semester continues..Rather the raga continues..With every moment honey coated with the conked up jokes that the gangsters of 13B[literally:P!!] come up with.The next significant event that came up was the placements.Attending placements is like going a wedding.You dress up.You go with the hope of giving your taste buds a vacation from the mundane food,only to realize that you're in the wrong wedding hall and your presence is no longer solicited!Gaudy dresses replaced by bland formals,the gift to the bride and the groom analogous to the embarrassingly little technical skills of the resume.NDS ,NetApp ,Subex ,NI..the companies comeand go .End result..no one from A section gets placed!!This reality is somehow oddly comforting,sometimes even soothing to the very core!It isn't every year that a bunch of the 40+ EC crowd[read- brillianter than the brilliantest] do not get placed by any of the big shot companies!We're creating history here!The twin brains somehow manage to make a guest appearance in all the interviews .The story never goes beyond that.I wish they could show their twin middle fingers to the interviewer the next time they're shown the door!I mean.. common!If they don't make it,what hope do half baked brains like me have?!!For all our sakes I fervently hope that the twins get placed!and then may be we can placate them to treat us[:P].Okay okay..! My imagination goes outside the realm of possibility sometimes!
So bottom line--Who am I now?!!
The seal in the picture above!Someone not placed.. fat and unemployed..someone who's going to turn up to the Aricent placement tomorrow minus the formals and the resume.
Hopefully I'll be able to smile back at this post in a few years time finding it churlish and actually be placed and thin and employed!![to be read as ..rich,famous,smart and owns a private jet]
As for now I've a feeling my IQ will drop ten points if I continue penning down this nonsense..So..Peace out!

First day of the Final year!!

I write this post with the sole intention of making a chronicle of the seventh semester.I do this mainly because the past few days have left me awed and frustated..Awed because every day has brought with it joys and surprises I couldn't fathom; frustated because the days seem to be escaping from my hand like sands of time.Stupid unreliable time!
Anyway my first day in the Final year[I'm a senior now!;)]I see the the people who matter the most in my favourite place..C bench..I smile a big smile ..[which i rarely do..] at everyone ,thrilled to see every one of them,following which we start trotting the campus to find our classes..Up on the 6th floor[which we walked to btw..!] I take in all enormity of the scene and the situation.The fact that my "happy" days are numbered hits me,giving me a physical jolt somewhere within the depth of my being.I see the perpetually happy girl Arpi,my mood brightens up and we sneak into the 7th floor..and actually try a few dance moves..We talk,we tease,we laugh..just the usual routine..yet so profound in many ways..
And few question here..my memory is getting hazier by the day,,
Did we eat lunch that day?!what did we do after we came down?!!
I dunno what I was thinking when I started writing this post!Damn!It's impossible to compress and cram everything into a single post..!
Know what?!It isn't right to leave out the beautiful moments of this semester..So I'm just going to take it slow..and enjoy the process of penning them down ..:)

"Food" for thought!

Looks like we've to start wearing "health tomahawks" [By "we" I mean the girl gang(havent really come up with a name for the gang yet:P)]One moment we're all laughing like maniacs[which is nothing different from the ordinary...]and the next we're all down with "gale ki khichh khichh!" which brings me to the point I want to make.."Certain habits are better left unaltered."After one and a half years of convincing our dear ol' classmate "Manju" to get food from home..He takes the leap and gets "pulav" from home..Two minutes after consuming it,Archana complains of "gale ki kharash"...two hours later Manisha's meter is down by 50%..Two hours before eating the food Nandini's more worn out than ever...!And two days later I'm getting the initial symptoms of sickness..And four days earlier Arpitha's throat was double toned!
If you notice the 5 of us have been completely knocked out by the incoming Pulav monster..In a time when all people can think about are"will we ever get placed?!".."will i clear CAT?!""Will i be able to pass the internals on the 14th?"I pose you with the most thought provoking of all ."Should manju get food to college ever again?!"

Three days to internals and I'm obsessed with food judgrment!!HElppppppppppp I yelp!!:(

Dubious thoughts...

Be a Roman while in Rome..
On the other hand..
Be yourself..Life's too short to be someone else!
I wonder and wonder about my life like an inebriated addict..Constantly work to expedite my progress(emotionally,physically,intellectually)...But somewhere along the sodden paths of emotional roads this question haunts me like a damned ghoul..And during this time of "soul searching"[see!!literally ghoulish x-(!] I wonder how I respond to the constant interruptions from the brutally real world durin this time of ghouling!!Does another mannerism take over me?!Do I have multiple personalities?..Was I secretly the inspiration of "Anniyan"?!I dont even know if I'm in possesion of a fourth one!In Harry Potter terms I've split my soul..meaning I've committed four murders!!I'm a frickin' dark witch!!Is that why I've the unusual gift of predictions?!

I wanted to tell you how enraptured I was by every single moment of the past week that went by!I digressed.September 3rd or 2nd..Classes suspended by teachers and for kicking the door! .September 4th..My brother's birthday..Spetember 5th..A teacher's day celebration that brought tons of hope into my existance..[not that im a teacher..but simply that there will always be people and instances who'll conspire to get you back into the happy times of the past:)

Anyway..Its been long since I blogged...Longer since I've felt more alive...If you were bugged..I congratulate you..!You'll feel alive in just about 5 seconds from now..!How's that you ask?!;)The ghoulish prediction always comes true:^)

Pff!

Its 10:51pm and I've officially started freaking out!!!!!!!Exams due in precisely 23 days!!
I really wish i could write more..but a lotta conflicting thoughts would only pave way to the maze of abstruseness that my mind mind is all about...

If only there was a way to rejuvenate my mood...
If only I weren't in my manners so crude..
If there was something I could do to keep my ego in check..
I'd be a happy l'll earthling without a single reck..
But if I did so,wouldn't my soul dwell in a bottomless perdition?!
I may be exagerrating,but I wish I could find a way out of this bloody damnation!
If only someone understood why I do what I do..
Wish the universe gives me the much needed cosmic clue..

gyaan!:D

be happy!

be jolly!

be cheerful!!:)

We're soaring..Flying...:)

If you're happy and you know ..clap your hands!!:)

CLAp!

CLap !!

CLap!!!!

Faux-pause?!

Well...Not entirely!!;)I was a product of the "Faux-pause" at the beginning of this semester...Little did I know that with the element of fear removed..one could do anything!!One could commit a faux pas and still get a kick outta it!I'm so much more reformed and renewed with hope and energy now!I'm not afraid of putting myself out there coz  i've realized...The brain is extremely supposrtive of your mind at moments of incurring potential social embarrasments!It jumps to your rescue in a matter of nano seconds!:P..

Oh and  btw!!

With each NAno seminar I've a renewed confidence in myself!With each seminar I'm assured that engineering was the right choice for me afterall !I can proudly say..I'm an electronic Engineering in the makin!!:)Whaaaaaad upppppppp!!!!:D

PS-Sorry for having been soo narcissictic in all of my posts till date...will change....

I semi-promise;)

awaiting BLAHNESS!

Read "Windmills Of theGods" by Sidney Sheldon today!

One heck of a book!

The damned thing kept me glued to it all day!!

Loved the characterization of Mike Slade!Great build-upto the character!!Solid style!;)

I'm still figuring out how to spend the rest of my day!

The one word that seems to perfectly describe the impending day[and night] ahead is..

"BLAHNESS!!"[Courtesy Bambi!...]

PS-Loved the coinage of the term!Kudos to blahness!![:D]

My diary!

Well ..looks  like the announcement of the 'Dream diary' to the outer world somehow managed to tranquillise my inner crazy world..!:DFinally!!..lol

Will post dreams only if they defy all established levels of daftness!

Anyway...I realize I've not been able to blog regularly.That's coz I've finally begun to keep myself busy!!:)

Feels great to find yourself amidst the bustle of activities!

IEEE's giving me more than I'd bargained for!Absolutely love the feeling!!

 

Dream 1:Jai Ho?!dont think so!

This happened a few days ago...

Happened to hear that Frieda Pinto's the next Bond girl and was disgusted with the news.Went on to surmise what would have happened if I knew A.R. personally..[:P]This insane thought costed me a few hours of dreamless sleep:(

Dingy rooms...Dark corridors like alleyways...familiar..very familiar..

The next second a huge book blocks my view...Its yellow,soft-bound with the name 'Yarborough' printed across it.My mind flips through all the monstrous books we've been made to digest..A linear search or a bubble search [god knows which!] results in 'Logic DEsign by Yarborough'I look around and see people running helter-skelter towards the lab.

Must be internals I figure...

It's around 12:30pm.A few people i know come in complete desi apparel.Not very surprising,especially during the internal time:P.

Suddenly the man of the moment makes an entrance.We pray its Venkatesh Sir,the ultra cool new lecturer who's hardly a year or two  senior to us.Luck shines scorchingly on us!Turns out its the OScar winner A.R saab!

The scene's almost comical.HE enters,smiles and waves...The extra tensed,sleep deprived friends of mine stand up and begin to cheer..loud and enthusiastic..completely forgetting that an exam would commence in a few minutes.Ashwin and a few other die hard fans stand up and salute as though the national anthem is being sung.He responds in kind and then makes an announcement that numbs us all.

"Yes thank you"..The applause and the cheer slowly dies.

"Your test has been postponed for twelve hours .It will precisely start at 12:30 am."

Manju and Kiran hug and jump around like long lost brothers.Ashwin bows his head in great respect for AR.The Gandhi's swear under their breath.The girls make  hurried phone calls back home.

Anyway the dingy rooms and labs get dingier by the minute...Everyone's groggy eyed..Its almost 12:00 am..And I'm about to puke on the book..The atrocious ____ that had befallen us was mind numbing![___ because I really dunno if the situation was nice or crappy!]On one hand we had AR inv

igilating us..On the other we've to wait for 12 hours for a LOGIC DESIGN test!Whatta crappy logic and a creepier design!!At this point of time...I  wake myself up..curse again and fall flat. .As strange it would seem the dream continues..but its all very hazy..AR introduces us to his fiance who's teeth on the upper left mandible seems to be strangely blackened...Gives her an initially awkward but a tight bearhug,asks her to take care of us.So at 12:30 am,Logic Design internal..and who's the proctor?!A lady with half a jaw that's white and the rest black!!!!How much more crappier can a situation get?!?!

By this time I am so infuriated I wake myself up again..look outta the window...thank my fortune for having never met AR and finally go back to dreamless sleep...

FYI:My cousin's had the fortune of meeting him though..:)

I've uploaded a pic of the same...

Way to go Vasu!!;)

DREAM DIARY....

Well..Itš been happening for quite some time(by some time I mean a couple of years..:P)People I know have laughed at it,scolded me for it..even been embarassed by it.But most importantly they've always wanted to listen to it...My dreams ....are what they call...an enigma..they've a flow thatš extremely difficult to foresee.I wake myself up sometimes in the night to stop the madness of it all..but once the shutter closes...I'm back in the same game again!Damn!!!Anyway Ive come to the conclusion that thereš no stopping them .I guess I can bear this ultra creative torture by simply sharing it with you!;)
So here we go...Youŗe gonna fret..Youŗe gonna laugh..Youŗe gonna cry..at the madness of it all..
Dont tell me I didn't warn you before....
[Im jus blogging the latest dream that I can remember...nothing goes in order..]
Caution:Nothing stated below is real.It is purely ficticious and a unique work of art contributed by my sub-conscious mind.Any resemblance to your semblance is purely co-incidental;)

Agent Krithi reporting :P

A bright sunny morning.

She was happy!It was the perfect day..

She felt her heart sing...

H-a-p-p-y!

We are happy why not try!

Skip smile thoughtout the day 

Happiness is here to stay!

It's a sunny,funny day!

Flowers and trees in their happiness sway..

Hey HEy!

Skip smile throughtout the day!

HAppiness is here to stay!

Chop Chop Chop goes the horse..

Up and down it hops and trots,

The sparrow lilts,the cuckoo sings;

The squirrels dance ting-a-ling-a-ling!

Soooooooo be

H-A-P-P-Y!!!

She sang,the glow shone on her face ,she was giggling..she was joyous and why not?!The world was at her feet!!And what happened in the next few seconds was ....well..it's what people call 'a once in a blue moon occurence'

She turned to her right and in a matter of seconds...she'd almost had her first kiss!

Sounds like a fairy-tail doesnt it?!

Wanna know what really happened?!

:D

She got down from the departmental alleyway with a group of her friends,she was undoubtedly happy..yet she had qualms..She confessed the same to her friends..An orgy of the best heads got together to rid her of her problems.They came up with solutions so indigenous that she could only laugh in merriment.By this time her gang and she were out of the dungeon of a department and had entered a narrow corridor.It was teeming with people;a few coming out,and many more entering the dungeon.At this precise moment several things happened at once.A peal of laughter rang from the group as someone made a witty comment..She laughed and swirled around to her right and in an instant,a bloke who was entering the corridor had the fortune of 'almost' kissing her.It was only for half a second but it was timeless!Her gang,as shameless as ever went on a laughing spree..He blushed and paled at the same time.She was laughing at the incident..rather exhilarating,with tears streaming down her face..Tears..not of happiness..but of a wild collage of emotions..

I guess all fairy tales did have a provenance of comedy.A comedy whose depth one can appreciate only after a certain period in one's life.

Probably the one who visited Cinderella before the ball was just a wealthy patron of hers!

May be Sleeping Beauty was renewed of her life after the kiss because her lover was also a medico!:P

You never know!!

I'd like to heartily thank the protagonist for having given me the pleasure to witness a  surreal fairy tail in my extremely materialistic and technical college.;):D

Chandler:You know Donald Duck doesnt wear pants.But when he's out to take a shower he has a towel wrapped around his legs.I mean ....what's that about?!

:D

:D

:D

It isn't a comedy...It's a Laughter Gala!

It isn't a melodrama..It aint a soap..

It isn'y just any other sitcom...

IT'S FRIENDS!

It's the one show which was responsible for adding a new colour to my engineering livelihood..

It unleashed a part of me I never knew existed..It brought me face to face [rather mind to face!]with my wacky self..

Its taught me

That it rocks to be a moron![HElloowwwww Chandler!!]

It aint such a big deal if one's unemployed! instead it gives you all the more time to hang out with the one's you love...[Courtesy Monica]

To never stop beliving in yourself and your instincts...[Thanks Rachael!]

To always say what you feel no matter how weird you me llok or sound[Heyya Pheebs!]

n most importantly..

YOu will find true love even if you're dumped..not only by your life but also by your three wives[Howz it goin Ross?!];)

PS....

In my circle of friends I'm Ross..!

The others are Shru and Teju..they're Chanoey...a complex homogenous mixture of Chandler and Joey..They're inseparable..just like the latter are..!:D.The martinet Monica's our very own Manisha..![true to her character she showed her volcanic self when I left her out of this post..A thousand billion apologies...Dontcha worry..I'll compensate by reciting to you my dreams;)]

We've yet to find Gunther and Janice though:P

All applications for nutcases are invited....

Minimum qualification-Must be atleast 80% all conked up.

We're waiting;)

PINK CHADDI BRIGADE!!

Smile....because when you do...your victimiser loses his thrill to victimise you.

Brilliant that they are,the IT and corporate honchos of Namma Bengaluru seemed to have understood the significance of the above quoted words.They're out to dismantle this madness simply by slashing the egos and maniacal fanticism of the jobless Sri Rama Sene with the sharpest of satirical swords and words.[and ofcourse pink,polka dotted chaddis!!]Hats off Bengaluru!!

As I sat comtemplating the 'mission' and 'responsibility' the Sri Rama Sene have taken upon themselves I could not help but smile at the obvious loop hole of their Valentine mission.Thanks to them tens if not hundreds of couple who are betrothed but cannot muster up enough courage to stand up to their parents will be duly given a mangal sutra and be married in a couple of minutes happily bidding farewell to all the family drama that would follow otherwise.

One of my friends even pointed out..If a girl's rejected a boy's proposal,all that he has to do is simply stand beside her and mouth the words 'I Love YOu Too' in full glare of the Rama Sene...I swear!He'll consider himself the luckiest man in the years to come...what with all the recession clawing at your wallets , an immediate marriage to someone he madly loves without having to mindlessly empty his wallet in numerous cafes is indeed a blessing in disguise!;)

Ironically Rama Seneš ridiculous modus operandi sounds very similar to the SPice Girl's Wannabe lyrics in my head..:D

It goes something like

[as told to the guys by the SRR :P]

If you wanna be her lover,

if you wanna be her friend..

Make it last forever coz our Hindu rules wont bend!!

If you wanna be her lover, you've mangal sutra to give,
Romancing is too easy, but that's the way it is!

If you wanna be her lover, you gotta, you gotta, you

gotta,
you gotta, you gotta marry or we'l be your fiends!

we'll

Slam your body down and wind it all around!
Slam your body down and wind it all around!
Slam your body down and wind it all around!!
Slam your body down zigazig ahhh!:D

It's coming...

These dark and murky days of recession is something that has touched everyone's existance.

From the chaiwala who's already diluting the tea to great extents to the corporate giants who've begun to dismantle and dilute the man-power in their respective organisations.

It's hit everyone..and it's hit 'em hard.

As an engineer I cant help but wonder if it's going to devour on our career as well..

Just a few days ago I underwent pre-placement training along with scores of others to ensure that we wouldn't be left behind in the rat race for 'THE" job that would set-off in 6 months time.For few the entire affair seemed outlandish while for a majority of them it seemed to be a bare necessity.For me it was as if I've been put to steer the tiller of a barge and made incharge to sail it through a hurricane.It seems to me all I've been able to accomplish is just head it straight into the face of the hurricane without being able to manoeuver it,sailing against the tide,rather than with it,not because I was ignorant but simply because I did not know how to!!

The entire affair seems very war-like to me.The corporate sector waits ambushing with prodigius patience to hire the right candidate.Hundreds of them hope to be that 'right candidate'.Considering the recession,its common knowledge that only the best would be chosenEveryone's getting their swords sharpened,saving the best of the tunics for the D-day.

All I'm doing is simply keeping my sanity in the midst of this hurricane.I've a long way to go before I reach the shore and face the corporate giant.While on this journey,my gamut has been increasing far and wide.It has somehow given me a new perspective to the entire scenario.The recession's devoured the livelihood of millions.Warriors are trying to best it by their wile or their smiles.No one knows where and when we shall see the shore.Everyone's destined;but to what is camouflaged by  nature.

So while I'm finally halfway into the treacherous mouth of this hurricane ,I know I do not need the answers now.I absolutely do not!There is nothing much that I can do other simply enjoy the madness of this hurricane....

TV Nerd:(

I got up this afternoon (coz it was eleven thirty when I woke up)thinking "Screw it!",I aint gonna look at the comp anymore..I've got Eragon to read!"I was sick of it!!Lately I've been addicted to my PC not because I chat a lot but because I catch my fav sitcom Scrubs online.Day in and day out I've been watching it and what normal people watch in 5 years I've watched it in a matter of 10 days!You'd think I'd be ashamed..But like all addicts I didn give a damn...until now..I finally starightened my mind ,resolutely signed into blogger and put on an anti-glare spectacle to be used for the comp...[sittin for hours together in front of this addictive monster does take a toll on one's eyes I've heard]

I started out with Obama's coronation ceremony in my mind when I put on my mom's super powered spectacle instead of the one with anti-glare and got a scorching glare from my inner eye!'You wanna end up in the hospital just like in Scrubs so much that you wanna destroy me?!'it roared in a funny puppet voice..

That's when I immediately changed my mind about what I had to write.What the heck!As long as Obama doesn't make people say 'O-Bummer!' at the end of his term we're gonna be alright.

I've seen different classes of nerdiness in my engineering life..

--->The nerdy nerds-those who've no qualms about what people around them think or do as long as they aren bothered.

--->The defiant nerds-those who are non-nerdy on the outside and super-nerdy inside.

--->The non-nerds-who barely slog yet make it to the top thanks to those precious strings of inherited dna.

now coming to the last category...

--->The TV Nerds-people like me:(

I need help!

I need to go and blow some steam  off  else I'm pretty sure I'm going to end up inside the monitor of this damned computer!

Who am I?

I'm TV Nerd[not BATMAN:(((!!!]

I heard the music!!

Yesterday was very profound..

Not because Pakistan finally started taking action by rooting out the Jamaad Camps...

Not because the ICC's come out with a very crappy list of the top batsmen and bowlers..

Not even because the Satyam board got new members to accomplish its Operation Salvage...

Lets get some perspective here..shall we?!

Its my blog!So obviously it would be something consanguineous to me!

Yesterday I realized certain situations sprout up in our lives only to test hell outta us!They sprout up only to see if a person's capable of calling the shots to prove his/her mettle,may be not to the whole wide world but to that small squeaky irritating voice in the head and to quieten the qualms that one often has about his/her capabilities.

Once that squeaky voice becomes music is when you know you've done it!You've done what is right and at that point of time the music is so exhilirating and so intoxicating that the very act of doing what was right seems like a bigger triumph than what is to come!

So what am I trying so say?

Always do what is right?!

Always listen to your conscience?!

Nooooooooooo!!!

Just that yesterday was very profound!:D

PS-For the record I did hear the music!!!:);)

If only I had shown how much I cared,

If only I had my feelings to you bared,

If only I had shown true concern,

Life wouldn’t have taken this nasty a turn;

If only I’d been truthful,

to you and to myself

Life would have been a journey far more beautiful;

If only I had another chance,

I’d break my silence and dance,

To celebrate the love ... that is mine…that was yours…

But alas, fate threw its cards on the table,

And I was cruelly woken up from my own fable…

There it lies in my eyes…the story of my love…Untold and unheard

The love I betrayed,

The love that reality did not portray,

My love, like yours, isn’t my life,

It is darkness beyond penetration,

Anger much beyond frustration,

My love isn’t my life……..

It’s simply hell…in all its glory….

Faux-pause XXXXX!

           It was one of those typical evenings before exams...incessant messaging wishing people "gud luck" in the most innovative ways...{One of them actually comparing the memory of students writing the exams  the next day to Ghajini's memory..blank after 15 minutes !}despite acute shortage of time..In between these silly forwards were bitchy conversations targeted at the audacity of VTU to put 'young,budding,minds' [like ours;) ]through such atrocious crap called "EXAMS":D...[marathon bitching about exams becomes a way of life in engineering...in any UG course for that matter:P]Anyway I was in the middle of one of these conversations when I missed my friend sooo much that I told her..'come off rashu!lets do a train dance on the last day of exams...Let Mu lead us since he's someone endowed with people skills!'All she did was giggle after which we said gunnyt and went back give an audience to our books .

          The last day of the monstrous exam series finally dawned upon us and we were all soo happy that we were clueless about what to do next!I was standing in the corridor chatting away to glory when Rashu and Mu came marching by in all smiles and a great deal of confidence in their strides and roared 'Lets Go!!'

         At first i thought they were joking...turns out they weren't...!!My stupid idea actually inspired them to run around the whole damn college!!I comfortably backed out but Mu..a leader that he is convinced me to do a simple train dance around the Library katte..I must say I was pretty embarrased!But more than that I was soo let down by me!!!Instead of doing what my crazy heart told me to..I simply stuck by the rules of stupid-boring-social etiquette!!!!Another faux-pause in the list of innumerable faux-pauses!!

        I promise you Mu and Rashu..the next time we meet up...we'll go for a train dance![for having given itna saara bhav for my stupid idea!]And this time I wont care even if the Princi's looking at me!!!

I always thought my thinking and my way of life was way more complex than any normal human being's...Well..who doesn't love to exagerrate?!;){See..even the blog starts with an 'I'..I'm not Narcissistic though:P }I thought I'd take days to just think back on the life I've led so far!Ironically,I found two words that perfectly described my existence on earth so far..! FAUX-PAUSE! I've always been afraid to take up new undertakings wondering if I'll end up in a socially embarassing situation!!Turns out 'embarassment' is my loyal companion!So wherever i go...whatever I do it's promised to always follow me{ unlike my mobile network which has irritated very many over the years}!Pausing the faux is what I've done all my life and thus paused every opportunity that presented itself before me for so long that it eventually got bored and knocked someone else's luck!But all that's going to change...It'll take sometime for me though..but I'm going to make sure I don't chicken outta anything anymore!!!!!This blog is an account of my life till date...{Which is obviously filled with THE most embarassing situations}I figured if one can laugh at them...one can overcome them!turns out its pretty easy!;)so here's my new journey on an old life ..ironically d path is the virtual .but still an  addictive one;)
