the loneliest day of ma life 30th April 08



its the end of the academic year!!! tomorow is officially the last day of the semester... and also of the most awaited year in colg...ma Third year!

was it long hoped? i don remember, thoughts of the life before being a T.E. are pretty obscure today! to say it was the most dynamic year of ma life.
it was a year of misunderstandings, of misconceptions, of pride, of running around, of begging, arguing, quarelling, debating, crying, enjoying, fucking up...... (the list is long)

a really long year!

with our annual gathering.. i thot it all had finally ended, no more being responsible!!!!!!!!... for stuff thats nt related to u, but it wasnt! we had another event to do.... i had no endurance left in me, and the last thing to piss me off was probably the lack of interest by the masses.

there is a large chunk of people out there.. who are stubborn! they know precisely how not to think! they have reasons beyond logic. they have principles that sway right or left depending on the situations. they have big mouths, they are like barking dogs.. who chicken out frm a cat in the middle of the night.

there are others who voice their support, and they do only that much...Voice their support, and when u need the support even the voice is gone.

then there are selective supporters. they'll analyse wats happening around, then match with their egos and ambitions and then decide if to support or not.

but what still keeps the flame of hope alive is the presence of a small minority of what the world wud term as "bekar" people cos they are alwes hanging around at the scene of action, getting involved, triggering involvement.

when u take a step to do smtin...
rule 1) ······assume u r never going to get any help. no one besides u wants it done... so u are on ur own!

rule 2) ······never involve ur best friends, good friends, close friends or remotely friends for ur help... u wil surely end up into weird situation ud rather not be in. its better to involve third party people ... relationships are much more professional then. u d b surprised how susceptible ur so called friends are to "loose talk"

rule 3) ······you will be demoralised... its only ur determination that will help u get over the red tape, blue tape, green tape ( n all tapes)

rule 4) ······when you want to get some work done, u never have the upper hand

rule 5)······ when you find a way to do something, there will alwes be someone who will find ways to stop it from being done so be prepared

rule 6) ······you will be accused for things you have done n not done ( yes accused ..i have chosen the word carefully)

rule 7) ·····if you are hoping someone will appreciate your work... then probably u rather not do it.

rule 8) ······everything has a past.. and it will alwes loom over u... "Haunt u"

rule 9) ······everyone wants to be given importance. everyone wants an invitation in golden ink...

rule 10)······Assume nothing..... u will alwes find the most unexpected people turning up to help


i know the title doesnt kind of match what i have written, but thats what the day was for me.... and all these are jus afterthoughts!

The Damsel in Distress Syndrome

Many years ago, a male friend quoted, “a girl/woman in a relationship is somehow more attractive to other guys”.  I didn’t really give a thought to it then, it could have been well merely his opinion. But what with guys liking girls who are already with someone else (and vice versa) I thought it wasn’t as simple as that. At a broader, abstract level, we as social creatures, seek conformity in our actions, a kind of acceptance. We are more willing to conform to something that has been already accepted. More than often we conform to social codes, rules, without questioning them because they already have some acceptance for them. We tend to believe that anything that has been accepted should be worth accepting. The other way of looking at it, and this one’s a personal favourite, is the Damsel-in-Distress Syndrome. Okay, there’s no such syndrome really, and I came up with the name, but it fits. So a couple of years ago, I had this friend who thought a girl was driving him nut...

smoke off yer life

Its been some time since my last post…..but I was preoccupied with other matters… Back to ma writin What is the difference between addiction n habit…if any!! The first thing that I turned to for an answer was a dictionary! In the GREAT DICTIONARY (no adjective, the dictionary I refer is itself called the GREAT DICTIONARY…nt oxford, m a bit unorthodox) i found this: ADDICTED is defined as being physically dependant on a certain thing, or, being devoted to a particular interest or activity HABIT was defined as a settled or regular tendency or practice!! This may sound drab, n my reader may wonder what I am heading to, but I have a point to make, n I hope you bear up wid me The definitions above are not complete, what about mental dependence? I come to the crux of the matter now!! SMOKING: is it an addiction or a habit? its not supposed to make u mentally dependent...but then ppl do behave lyk they r aft some tym...lyk i need a cig to think, to relieve ma tension!!...

a story

Once upon a time, th ere was a bird . He was adorned w it h tw o perfect wings and with glossy, colorful, marvelous feathers. In short, he was a c reature made to fly about freely in the sky, bringing joy to everyone who saw him. One day, a woman saw this bird and fell in love with him. She watched his flight, her mouth wide in amazement, her heart pounding, her eyes shining with excitement. She invited the bird to fly with her, ant the two traveled across the sky in perfect harmony. She admir ed and venerated and celebra ted that bird. But then she thought: he might want to visit far-off mountains! And she was afraid, afraid that she would never feel the same way about any other bird. And she felt envy, envy for the bird’s ability to fly. And she felt alone. And she thought: I’m going to set a trap, the next time the bird appears, he will never leave again.’ The bird, who was in love, returned the following day, fell into the trap and was put in cage. She ...
