Hmmm...

So be it.... :-

Statement:
When you know someone likes you... you start taking them for granted... Why?
- Hmmm...To some extent this can true.There can be 2 reasons why you take the other person for granted i think...

1. You also like the other person amd think he/she will always be there for you and take them for granted(without your knowledge).
2. You don't like that other person and want to set straight the other person's overadvances.
There's only a hairline difference between the two acts but the impact can be very very different.
To some extent this can only be an illusion or temporary blindness caused by involuntary surge of adrenaline :-)

Statement:
To forgive someone without their knowledge is really satisfying...
Yeah...You think you have done this, and temporarily feel elated and satisfied.But somewhere deep inside you should ask yourself whether you have really forgiven??
Hmmm...But one thing for sure, the temporary feeling of satisfaction, emptiness is a thing of joy :-)

Statement:
We cannot be sure of having something/someone to live for Unless we are willing to die for the same...
Yeah I know, the sentence is not that well formulated.What it tries to convey is, we long for so many things in our life, which we say is the most neccessary thing to live...
But if it is a thing(s) for which we are ready to die, then only its worth saying its a necessary thing to live for.
Hmmm...I know its still not convincing.

My Views...

Statement:
Don't ever expect anything in life, for then whatever comes will be a surprise


Looks really tempting to follow, isn't it?
But we humans haven't overcome the basic craving we all have. I dont even believe people who have become sanyasis also don't have any expections. In fact they are the ones who will be expecting to get mukti by following their own way of life.
So I just read it, admired it and forgot about it...

Statement:
If you want to get something you never had, do something you have never done


Hmmm... Even after doing somethings which you haven't done in your lifetime, most of the times it happens so that you won't get what you wanted(at least what you wanted when you did that). All depends on your lady luck.
So try it(at your own risk)...

Statement:
Don't wait to be loved, to love...


This statement, I can link to the first one(Expectation and all that crap).
I think it's very difficult or rather impossible to do something and not to expect anything from that. So samething applies to this also.
No one can be as godly as to not expect anything and extend unconditional love.
So... admired it...

Theory of relativity in speed

Statement: You will always see more vehicles in the opposite lane approaching towards you when traveling in a highway.

Disclaimer: Something like this might have already been stated more properly and proved also. Any similarity to the original is purely co-incidental.

Proof:
Assumptions:

Assume there are 2 points A and B.
And there is some finite distance between A and B lets say it as 'x' km.
Vehicles v1 and v2 are starting from A and towards B in lane l1.
Vehicles v3 and v4 are starting from B and towards A in lane l2.
Lanes l1 and l2 are adjacent to each other with a small barricade.

Suppose v1 and v3 have started together and bit early and are traveling at a speed of 60 km/h.
Suppose v2 and v4 start together but bit late than their counterparts and are traveling at a speed of 30 km/h.

In the course of vehicle v2's journey it will not overtake v1 and so it will not encounter any vehicle in it's lane.
But it will definitely it will meet v3 and v4 in the opposite lane.

So taking this argument forward for 'n' vehicles, we can say that this theory is proved(at least I am convinced).

Hence the proof.

GRE

Had thought of writing so many things on this topic.
But then realsied that it's pretty tough to equivocate.
So...
This is it.

Siblings....





I always wanted one... :-)


Yeah... I am a singlet and I realised(rather I can say repented) that I missed on so many things being the only son to your parents.I happened to share my feelings about this to my parents sometime back and they hit back on me saying "Swalpa late aaythu neen heLiddu" ;-)





Ok... now I will try to put some advantages and disadvantages of being the one and only child.





Advantages...

• You will get all the pamperings and praises for whatever you do at home(Incidentally my parents were not so liberal :-))



• Can use this dialogue often to escape from your mistakes "iradu nan obne maga anta nim sittanella nan mele teeristeera"(I happened to discover this dialogue after I became mature enough not to use that kind of sentences with my parents on a serious note ;-))



• You can single handedly inherit,enjoy,destroy all the wealth they would have earned by saving their nickels and dimes.



• Added advantage when your parents are looking out for a fiancee for you... ;-)(Not very sure whether to add this in the advantages list or the disadvantages list... Can differ from person to person)
  

May more... Can't remember everything...

Disadvantages...

• Lots of indirect parental pressure in the form of expectations... Be it on Acedamic front or any other areas.



• Too much monitoring(I can also call spying) till you reach certain stage(in their words "settle aago tanaka")



• You can socialize with persons of your age of the same gender easily in the school... But will miss out with the opposite gender...(This goes without saying that I was kind of shy/reserved guy till I joined Engineering) Which will inturn lead in future times when you get an opportunity to socialize with them... to that GOLDEN SENTENCE which Linda Goodman has told about me... :-). Sorry if this kinda felt cryptic in nature(It was meant to be.. ;-))



• I am not very sure how it feels to have a friendly fight with your siblings... People say they enjoy it... I never felt it... :-(



• You can never feel the emotion which other people(having siblings) feel when their sister leaves home after getting married... :-(



• You won't have anyone to speak your heart out... ANYTHING and EVERYTHING :-(
  You would love to make arrangements for your sis's marriage, take responsibilities, make it a dream come true for her on that day... Alas... Get one... first LOSER... before even thinking of it...



• You done have anyone to call up in case you need some help which you can't tell to your parents or to your sister(I am hinting towards a Brother-preferably elder)
  

Well... I can go on and on and on.... But i think its enough... Long time since I wanted to write about this...

BOTTOM LINE:
LOVE your siblings... coz... I* don't even have them to HATE...

*People like me

Dreams Unlimited...

One question...

Does this happen to many in this world or is it only me... No Idea...
Sometimes you wake up in the morning and you will be still fresh with that latest dream of yours(incomplete) and you feel like continuing with that dream...

And you go back to sleep hoping to continue with that sweet dream of yours and guess what... That dream of yours actually continues and you will find it really really easy to recollect the contents of that dream later in the day and your mood gets elated whenever you think of it(Well... In my case I can never forget such sweet dreams... :-))...

FIVE POINT SOMEONE

Masterpiece!!! No exaggeration here. Although I do feel good about most of the books which I read(Completely), this one is really an exception. I kind of felt all types of emotions reading this book. And yes, I am cursing myself now for not reading this one during my college days ( as if I would have implemented any of their pranks in my life ;-)... Well... You can never say... as you don't know me... ;-)) I can say this is the first English novel which made me feel "Che... Its getting over... Its finishing... as I reached last of the pages."
I generally have the same feeling when I read Tejaswi's Kannada Novels.

I thought of reading this novel when one of my friend recently said that she read it recently as I had to do something for the weekend, I bought this book by paying a mere 95 rupees(and not bucks)Its worth every paisa(and not penny) of it...
As I said I felt the pinch of not reading it during my college days... But no... It was fun reading it even after the college... I imagined myself in such horrenduous situations and My God... I did it only once...

As I start reading a book, I have this habit(Some may say Its Stupid... But I like it...) of mapping the characters present in that book to some realworld people whom I know. Same thing happened with this book also(involuntarily)... No sooner did I start it, I found a typical Hari(Or should I say... A Potential Hari...) Alok was an easy character to decide upon. A typical Indian lower middle class guy with lots of responsibilities... Let me tell you, Ryan's character was a bit tough to decide upon. I had almost decided on one person, but then too many complications came out and I left that character as a blend of some 2-3 persons whom I know(One person taking 50% of Ryan's character... :-)) And then came Neha's character. I actually thanked myself later that I didn't map this girl to anyone whom I know(Reason Unknown)... I just saw someone in the Shopping complex and thought "Perfect" :-).

And I had an IIT in mind also(You know guys what I am referring here) and I stayed in the hostel for one year also. And guess what, I had taken some ragging also (Not exactly what these guys had... Uff... :-) ) Well I must say, even seniors who call us for Intro have some fear... and my Height played a big role in rescuing me from some of the pranks I guess.
We were called on by the seniors(Karnataka guys... We had this strange rule in our hostel wherein only Karnnataka seniors can rag their karnataka juniors and Non-Karnataka guys are not suppose to get involved in this... And vice-versa was also followed). On my ragging day, my bad luck was that I had a senior who had a same name of mine and don't know for what... he got a bit pissed on me... He started asking my name's meaning and I frankly told what my mom had mentioned it to me someday but, no ways... He wouldn't let it go till I tell somemthing which is there in his mind. Finally I gave up and he enligtened me only after I went to mess and filled all his empty water botlles and came back. And there was this one squinted senior who was also in the gang to rag us. When he started asking me some questions, I just couldn't make out where was he seeing... So I kept quiet thinking its none of my business... But then when he raised his hand towards me, only then I realised that was for me and later got some sever scoldings from him for no fault of mine(What can I do if he is squinted???)

I don't even remember now who else was there with me on that day . But one guy was made to sing the same song 3 times in a row(Well... he took it with pleasure I suppose). I had another round of ragging next day with some other seniors where one of the guy was almost of my height but when the figures were revealed, I beat him by 1.5 inches. :-)... He wasn't at all amused by that fact. So he decided to take it out on me and for the entire half an hour duration of the intro I was made to stand in half leg posture(>).Not on kness mind you ... that would have been a lot better... And after that they let me go after telling some Non Veg jokes.

Nothing really exciting happened after that and I must admit I really had a sad ragging experience(as if I had longed for more then... ;-) )... One more simillarity was my first Internal marks... I must tell you this... :-)

I always did not like maths that much... Only when all hells break loose upon me, I used to study(STUDY... mind you and not workout problems) maths... I used to get ok ok kind of marks also in that... The whole of my college maths I just used to do it for the last 3 days as it used to be the first exam everytime. I had got some good marks in my PU and I was brimmimng with confidence and I DID NOT STUDY AT ALL FOR THE FIRST INTERNAL MATHS. And when I saw my marks I was actually surprised for a moment, 23!!! Cool marks I thought.... Then someone told(I had cursed him then...)," Its out of 50"... Then I came back to my senses and there I was, having 12 out of 25(Its still around 50% mind you...) But our college had this strange rule, Only 15 is considered as pass and I had actually FLUNKED for the first time in the my entire life time. Had I done a Alok for that,( I don't have that much guts I know... But still....it was an option for me... ;-)) I was told that my parents will be called upon and I will have to attend extra classes and all(None of them materialised though... :-) )
But I had to figure out something to say to my parents...
Naturally when the report card went to my home, Dad called up asking whether he has to come down or what... as it was mentioned in that card to contact the Head of the Department if the marks are below 60%. Even I didn't know what to tell... and I just ignored his question then. Nothing really happened for that matter and then I learnt to take things lightly in the college and after somedays one more situation came where I had to keep my cool to prove myself that I had grown up and not a "fattu"... But Did I?
