Bidding Adieu To The passing Year

Finally time has arrived to pack my bag and head towards home .In less than 24 hrs from now i would be on howrah - puri express heading towards howrah and finally to patna by poorva express .The very feeling of reaching home gives me immense pleasure not because i really miss my home as i have been staying away from home since 1990 and i have moved forward from all these sentimental stuffs .My home is the only place on this planet where i am at peace with my self in the context that i have nothing to worry .No classes hence waking up whenever i desire (conditions apply).Well i am at the mercy of my mother in the morning as she does not allow me too sleep for too long and my boasting of it as "desire" is something that happens very few times .So unkind of my mom keeping in mind the cold weather waiting for me where i dislike even to bring out hand out of a quilt . But i can bear this all without complaining just because of the food that i get at home .The overnight transformation of myself into a glutton amazes me often leave aside my mom .There the food not only fills up by stomach but goes far beyond satiating my hunger .Such high are the stakes that i can no longer wait to reach home .For such a life i don't mind anybody waking me up from deep slumber .These thoughts makes me nostalgic for which i often blame myself when returning back . Today i finished with the novel "The Monk Who Sold His Ferrari" which teaches us how to lead a life having everything in it .This book has loads of "gyan" for everyone who wishes to read it .If you have read swami vivekananda 's work then don't go for this book.Stay away from it if not accustomed to hear philosophy of life . Anyways i have begun reading "The Alchemist " a marvellous work by paul . I have planned certain things for myself as a part of "planning" so i have my task cut out at home .Lets see how things shape up at home .With another year coming at it's abrupt end it reminds me of the lost time together with the hope of a new year ,a new beginning and a new self .

ThE LAST DON

Finally i was able to finish reading "The Last Don" -a novel by Mario Puzo . The author is none other than who wrote "The Godfather " one of the bestselling novels of all times which was latter made into a blockbuster hollywood movie with the same name as the novel itself .The bollywood blockbuster "SARKAR " was the upshot of the indian adaptation of the great novel where the pivoted role was played by none other Big B himself .But i haven't watched any of the above movies till date and the above informations are strictly in accordance with data provided by the media itself .Well one must be pondering that why am i writing such stuffs when everyone out there knows about the author and "The Godfather ".But not every soul out there knows about "The last Don " by the same author which i began reading i don't when .Here my friend Rahul needs a special mention as he is the person who "persuaded" me to read the above novel after having read himself and more importantly finding it thoroughly enjoying . The word "enjoyment" is however a relative term and it differs from soul to soul . Meat to a person is poison to the other . I began with the novel having high expectations from the author only to be left disappointed in the end . All my expectations fell flat as i didn't experience the various emotions while going through the novel .The novel was able to keep me engrossed while for a short duration and that too at the fag end of it. The reason for disliking the novel is that it's story seemed to me too outdated thanks to numerous hindi movies which have more or less the same old story . I am not being too critical about the novel but it's just that i didn't quite like it ."The last Don " revolves around the lives of the members of a mafia clan and their relationships . Nothing more to" glorify" about the novel and read it at your own peril . Maybe my expectations were sky high . However this whole damp affair won't deter me from reading the classic novel "The godfather" obviously by the same author and revolving around the underworld again . At the moment i am going to kick off with "The monk who sold his ferrari " -a novel by Robin S . Sharma . So guys wait for it's review .

THE REAL BATTLE LIES AHEAD

Finally i have a lot to cheer about as my exams ended today though not on a good note .But overall it was a smooth sailing through some rough tides (read question paper ) and most importantly it lasted for a few days only ( thanks to my ETC department for showing some mercy as the sem included five subjects only ).So i can" relax "a bit as the results will be announced only after a month and gone are days when sem results kept me on tenterhooks .Compounding to my joy is the fact that my next end sem exams are about some six months away . So i can "relax" for such stuffs but the real battle lies ahead as coming months are very crucial for me. I will be sitting for the campus placements somewhere around march-april when companies begin pouring here . So that is an area of concern in the context that i haven't really put myself into it .Besides that i have as usual "planned" to finish off with Quant and have allocated a reasonable time for it keeping in mind the anomalies . I will strain my every nerve to stick with the task as this itself is going to decide a lot in months to come .So my friend get ur a** ready as we will not let this time slip out of our hands . So get ready for some real action.

EXECUTING OUR PLANS

Today i pondered over a matter which i feel is my staunch opponent and weakness too. What is that which frustrates me the most ? Is it the failure ? No way ! But that if neglected can cause complete doom. Neglect it and you are one the way to failure . No one can avoid it .Those who stick with it tastes success irrespective of the field they are in.Well i am not concerned a bit about others. But surely what has frustrated me through thick and thin of my career lately is the under achievement of my planned strategy . All the "efforts" that go into the planning goes in vain as our " efforts " are restricted till the plan. No such "real" efforts are shown even to come near that plan . What's the reason for it ? Do we plan our task beyond our capabilities ? Do we overburden ourselves not realizing about our limitations ? Well we may say so in some cases . But definitely not always at least in my case where i plan certain things well within my reach but never cares to finish it off . So why does it happen ? Do i plan beyond by capability ? The answer is NO as i know my limitations and everyone must it . Then what is it that separates me from the execution of my plans . I can't blame anyone as i cannot credit them too . After doing hell a lot of soul searching i got my answer .It was the consequences of a weak will power helped by some lethargic show by the body itself.But the major contributions came from a feeble mind which i possess of lately . The absence of a determined mind was the "real" culprit. But then is it the dead end ? Will i spend the rest part my "career" accompanied by "a weak mind ". No there's a way out as this was not always the case with me . It happened during my preparations for IIT and now when i am determined to bell the "CAT" the past is haunting me once again. Well certainly it has something to do with the insecurities which has crept into my mind and i can't escape them whatever i do. Then what's the way out ? Simple just keep asking yourselves some basic questions every day .What have done i done today to meet the efforts involved in the plan.? Have i executed my plans accordingly? And be honest to yourselves .Ask these questions and you would get an honest reply. Work upon if you have fallen short the next day to complete it .Always think positive as this is only the way to build a strong will power .This may sound as a lecture but this is the truth . How many of us execute all the plans we make ? Of course very few of us . Now people will say that every idiot on this earth knows about the above facts. But i ask how many of us execute the above self testing procedure ? Again the answer is very disheartening .Very few souls on this planet .Whatever i give a damn care to others and i will follow what i preach. The planning is essential but execution is the final blow to put it away. This is the most apposite method for me at least .Rest are free to follow their heart .

CAT :I am on fire

Welcome back !!! I am here after a long gap of few months and thus ending all the speculations .So my blog readers ( if any) have a reason to rejoice as this time i am here to stay for a longer duration. I don't know what forces compelled me to blog again but it has got something to do with pagalguy. Each time i browse the site and each time i come across some pagal's blog link .Compounding to the above reasons were my inner quests which i could not suppress for long.My sem exams are going on but i am no more concerned about my cgpa holdings. After the last sem fiasco i have grown a bit more stubborn .Thanks to my stupendous result which left me scratching my head in bewilderment (if not shock as i had little expectations) . Sorry exams for such a harsh treatment but you can now never threaten me atleast in KIIT.But this will not lead to my becoming complacent as i have more serious exams to look forward to. The first hurdle which i will be facing is CAT and others will then follow.Well to give an impetus to my preparations i joined TIME with more than a year to go for the D-day. With little over than three months of classes i am still not sure what i am doing . I made certain promises to myself but all ended in smoke as i lost the motivation in between reasons for which were inexplicable to me myself. With this dodgy approach to my preparations i am not going to land any where around my dream .I was not sure how badly i wanted it .I don't know what went wrong during these months but after putting in a conscientious thought i am regaining my lost "self" with determination as solid as rock . The stage is set for me to act and take the world by storm . Planning less and more of execution part is essential . Looking forward to my peregrination towards IIM'S . And of course now i know how much badly i need it . Really my a** is on fire and so am I.

CHAK DE INDIA

Hey it's me !!! Have you all forgotten me ?? May be as i never posted any blogs for quite a long time .A gap of around one and a half months. That's quite a long time considering it to be as one's daily business .Never mind i am still back ,if not late.Now the question arises as to why am i back?? Its quite obvious that something must have given me a reason to ponder over ,leave inspired .While i was pouring over the TOI today i came over an article titled "BLOGS @10" and that made me recall that once even i was an avid blogger . Number of bloggers are increasing in leaps and bounds everyday as calculated by Blog-tracker in july 2007 which estimated them to be around 93.8 million.The next was that i simply asked myself if i was one of those from 93.8 millions .The next moment i was blogging at my blogspot.

Another child prodigy shailendra is in news for becoming a computer graduate just at the age of 14. It's must be ensured by the government that such children face no financial hurdles. But their poor old classmates must be feeling embarrassed by his ripe age.Sometimes i wonder that how much gray matter such children contain .Of course from my state bihar too a child prodigy named tathagat made headlines a few years back and forced people to scratch their heads in astonishment.

After erudite debacle ,test at time was ok to say the least .With cheating in full flow as the examiners took little interest it was always going to be a good one. But then too i came out cursing myself as there was no negative marking and i had marked nothing based on sheer luck as this was an scholarship test and my aim was to get the maximum rebate .The result will be out on 16 th and till then i am keeping my fingers crossed.Let see how much can i get .

It has become more or less obvious that the 3rd test will end in a dull draw courtesy rahul dravid for taking such a bad decision that put india on the back foot .Never mind india has won the series and this win has come after a hiatus of 21 years .It's good see each and every member of the team play as a unit and contribute in the win. Thats great performance boys .Chak de india

Holidays.ahead ...Enjoy

Times up!!! In less than 12 hours ,i will be moving away from king's palace towards the railway station where patna-puri express is expected to leave at 3:45 pm.Alas i will be heading for home after a hiatus of six months .I have just less than a months holiday and this precious time has to be used judiciously with no goofing around.I expect the weather to be kind towards me as no power has shown up at my house since 1994.. Besides it's time for rain gods to open up heavily enabling a cool life out there.I am expecting all these but it remains to be seen how life shapes out there.Anyhow i have assigned myself a few tasks which i am capable of carrying out and hopefully will. I am eagerly waiting for the all the delicacies prepared by my mom to be stuffed down my belly.Of course i am not a glutton but when it comes to the items prepared by mom theres' no stopping me until i am overloaded.Blame it on the gods above for gifting "magic hands" to all the mothers on this planet.I have never heard anyone complaining about ones' home made food.Though i have been staying away from home since 1990 and i have got accustomed to foreign food but then too sometimes i get too bored visiting hostel-mess.It would be a good change of taste .Besides getting home after long durations i am at the helm of the kitchen proceedings.That simply means i get what i desire.It sounds great.Ok just leave it for sometime as it is already making my poor stomach go wild .
Well this is my last blog before i embark towards my home and when i return i hopefully will continue the good work.These holidays are just the kind of break i needed to invigorate my drooping spirit .This break would help me recollect my energies and put them together for a heavy season ahead.Ahead lies an important semester and an year as long as our placements are concerned. Right now lets forget the upcoming 3rd year and enjoy the holidays.Till then take care.It's bye from me . I will be right back in a months time.See u then..

nostalgia.....homecoming

At last with the time just managing to crawl ,the gruelling one and half month's training nears it's eventful end.For me it ended on day when java was completed and since then i am counting on the remaining number of days.With movies cramped into my hard disk i have no other job but to watch them before i embark on my journey towards what we call home.When i look back and try to gauge what i have gained in last one and half months ,i am left with not much to tell.But this does not frighten me enough as i never expected myself to do much.Well i am not actually complaining but it could have been better arranged in terms of it's span .Nevertheless whatever little i have gained is enough for me .
It's been long ,six months to be precise ,since i was at home and the very feeling of it makes me nostalgic.It's true that neither i have anything of grave importance to do there at home nor do i will be able to perform with my laptop much(thanks to the absence of power since 1994).At least i have not to bear the frequent power failures or to live in the constant hope of electricity .And it's not only my village that lies in the darkness but there are lakhs of villages lacking the basic amenities of life .Well i am not going to discuss the problems faced by the people of such villages as it's quite obvious to everybody .
With the race for a berth in rashtrapati bhavan hotting up and all the parties formulating their plans and holding clandestine meetings , it remains to be seen who will emerge victorious .I personally feel that our very own president kalam should have been given a second term in return of what he has given to the country.Anyways with him no more in the fray , it remains nothing but a formality for pratibha patil to occupy that position .I was glad to learn about the safe landing of the atlantis and with it all the astronauts.To be true the whole incidents for past few days kept me on tenterhooks. One thing really baffles me as to why TOI keeps on calling sunita half indian half american just to glorify india and take a part from her credit.It isn't fair as neither was she born in india nor educated .Then why such hoopla surrounding her.With kalpana chawla it was altogether a different story..

A walk To Remember

After a ten day hiatus I am back to blogging .Though today was Sunday it never turned out to be one as I had class in which we were being told about how to do the project .What I got during two and half hours was nothing and also I never expected myself to get anything .To be true I never enjoyed this training as I never learnt much .It seemed that something was imposed on me and that too with my consent from which there was no escaping.. You cannot give your heart and soul to any stuff you don’t like . But never mind whatever little I could learn ,I learnt .Besides I was feeling quite nostalgic about home too .Anyways the training days are going to be over in a weeks time and then I ‘ll go home to fetch some some peace and rejuvenate myself for the upcoming semester.

Well I saw four movies in less than two days despite my “busy schedule “ .Out of which I liked “A walk to remember” the most . Reasons are simple – a love story with not a lovely ending but a quite good movie that would certainly leave your eyes a bit wet .It is a story about a girl who is suffering from a deadly disease named leukemia and has her days numbered .But she lives life happily expecting a “ miracle”. And then a guy falls in love with her thus complicating things.. She brings about changes in life of the guy who earlier used to despise her .but now he respects her a lot . Earlier the girl had warned the guy not to fall in love with her as she never wanted to ruin his life knowing about her limited days But the inevitable happened for the guy and did some good to him as she brought about a lot of the changes in him. .In the end she dies leaving him successful but alone. Quite a sad ending but a must see for all.

The hoopla surrounding the next Presidential elections which is going to be held in a month’s time has engulfed the entire country. . Political parties are naming suitable candidates for the post of india’s first citizen besides pulling each others legs for their named ones.All are bickering among themselves to see that their named candidate occupy the coveted seat so that they can gain full advantage when they come in to form the next government in 2009. Congress has very shrewdly named Pratibha patil , a woman candidate and it’s more or less decided that she would be the next one to live in rashtrapati bhavan . She would be the first woman President of india if she wins ,hopefully she will. To the citizen of India and of course to me it doesn’t matter who helds that position as it is not like America where there is Presidential form of government and it is the President who takes all the decisions .In India it is the Prime minsiter who does all that and the poor president is just a nominal head of the country and has the limited job of just giving speeches and approving all what his council of minister asks for whether he likes or not…. It’s of no concern to me who ever becomes the President he or she might be able to inspire the entire population .Someone like Abdul Kalam….

It's all about passion!!

"It is passion ,not pedigree that wins in the end".The old adage once again has been proved by Govind Jaiswal who cracked an all india rank of 48 among 474 successful candidates in civil services examination. Now why i say it's passion and nothing else as because Govind is the son of an uneducated rickshaw vendor .Being from a non-privileged background with pauper parents ,he overcame all odds proving his mettle and setting a burning example for people from all spheres of society.Reading his story on REDIFF was a really inspiring one.Thanks to rediff.
Well my 4th semester results were declared yesterday and to be true it isn't an inspiring one. I had a hunch that this time around i won't be up to the mark but marks fell below by expectations .Thanks to some great marking by our teachers from ETC department not to mention patro sir.During my transition from IT to ETC i was expected to face the brunt of the teacher's .Nevertheless standing at this juncture i have no qualms about it. Now i am not going to discuss my marks in detail and make this space a monotonous one for my readers.
Thank god the week long agitation by Gujjars finally came to a halt .Now it remains to be seen what action in their quest will be taken by the Raje government. Now even if these Gujjars get the ST status at the expense of around 30 people loosing their lives ,the Meenas wont sit silently to let the Raje government please the Gujjars which of course is not happening in near future.This isn't the way to get your demands fulfilled as it can inspire many more lower castes to do the same shameful deed.Actually this whole quota system is hogwash certainly needs a slight alteration. Wait if i start discussing the pros and cons of our quota system it will take a toll on my reader.So better leave it aside. One more linux test to haunt me .Never mind come along

No More IIT'S

"Small -town boy tops IIT-JEE" .This was the headline which caught my eye while i was browsing the TOI today.And perhaps reminded me of the days when i zealously prepared for the most prestigious engineering colleges of india.The days when i gave my heart and soul just to bag one of the most coveted seats in any of the IITS. There was not a single moment when i didn't give a thought to iit.I always remained preoccupied with thoughts revolving around my one and only ambition - to crack iit. IIT is a fierce battle fought between the best brains of our country.The only thought of competing with the best brains use to send jitters down my spine. Leave aside the pressure of the deed day .the burden of preparation only took a heavy toll on me.I could easily call myself a "book-worm" having my head deep into the books. Failure of many diligent and studious personalities filled my mind with plethora of questions asking for a self-introspection .I did question myself but the kind of answers always confused me .A part said no you cannot make it (the real answer) while the other part reiterated that i could always make it(self created). I tried to remain positive always invigorating my drooping spirit. It was then i started readings books on swami vivekananda.Though i remained positive all the time but this isn't enough to secure a birth in IITS. I was always cheating on myself -it's not that i wasn't working hard but i always had the doubt which eventually turned out be a harsh reality.The results didn't sprang a surprise at me as you always know how have you performed in exams and in case of IIT you cannot expect a turnaround...Preparing for IIT has made me stubborn for the rest of the battles in life...Capturing a seat in screening test was easily one of the apogee of my so far less distinguish career .The failure of not making into the IIT’S no more rankles me . The busy man has no time for tears. In hindsight I guess that I was never made for IIT but something even prestigious than that. My family always stood by me through thick and thin and always supported my moves, though they felt crestfallen too when I couldn’t make it to IIT. That was one of the horrible periods of life when I couldn’t find success in any of the prestigious colleges leave aside IIT. People started doubting me as i was the only hope of my family . They began pinpointing at my failures and tried to persuade me to switch my stream..At times my career seemed murky. I the understood as theold adage goes like -this world only salutes the rising sun .I had no option but to turn a deaf ear to their calls. But the two years that I “wasted” for IIT has almost blemished my CV unless and until I rise to dizzy heights which can partially eclipse that .With the amount of grit and gumption I possess it remains only a imminent . I have my own modus operandi to achieve targets and standards I set for myself.. Learning from my past trysts with exams I have outmanoeuvred every rival in myself and ready to cave out a niche for myself...Nothing can now emasculate my grit to conquer what I desire of .I cannot renegotiate with myself anymore on smaller feats and condemn myself afterwards.. Now I am ready to take the IIM head on..

Children At War

Once upon a time there was a family living happily before some goons kills the sole bread earner of the family. Poverty stricken ,the family finds it impossible to make both the ends meet.Compelled by the circumstances the son takes the another route to survival- first becomes a thief and then slowly transforms into a notorious criminal.This isn't the story of hindi blockbuster movie "roti" where the protagonist is rajesh khanna. Nor it is story of typical hindi masala movies from past. This is the plight of the children in states like manipur ,assam ,nagaland ,kashmir to name a few..In these states number of children joining Maoists is increasing in leaps and bounds. Imagine a child aged ten years holding a gun at you .At this age where they should be playing with pen and pencil , they are firing rifles at people specially policemen. .India is not the only sufferer at the hands of the child “terrorists “ but it is a global problem. If there is anything to go by the estimated figures by UNICEF around 2,50,000 children are at present “recruited” into various terrorists camps actively indulging themselves in several crimes. These children who are predicted as future torch-bearers of the country are converted into goons.. After child labour ,"child soldier" is another such epidemic slowly and steadily engulfing the whole world and thus completely obliterating the lives of the children.Now the question to ponder over is that what drives these children to pick the deadly weapons and stand against the masses including the law. It's quite simple. Poverty ,curiosity, and illiteracy together join to become the driving force pushing these children towards joining them. Several camps are held in which children are trained at using weapons and other tricks of the trade. The senior members of the group use them as messengers or use them to transport ammunition .This is quite easy as they do not arouse any suspicion.And if caught also the laws regarding minors favours them.The law cannot punish them severely and hence they are released soon only to be picked up again .I remember an incident during my schooldays which had left me aghast .A nine year boy murdering a man with a pistol handed by some unknown person.It was only out curiosity which made the young boy do this heinous crime.The boy was let free as law could do nothing to him.Taking cue from this incident it becomes the need of the hour to banish these children from joining the rebels. We cannot expect laws to be more stringent towards them and award severe punishments .Thus the only pragmatic solution to this problem lies in creating better opportunities for them to live and learn. They must be imparted knowledge and inculcated the ideologies of a good citizen .Thus the central and the state government must develop some policies ensuring better life for these children before it's too late.

Hapless

Well, i was expecting a test on linux today but somehow it didn't happen .I had prepared enough(if not fully) and was ready to take the test head on. But soon after reaching the classroom i discovered that no test was going to happen today.I wasn't sure of my feelings at that moment .I had myself split into two -one part of it happy for not having any test while the other saddened by the surprise element.The truth behind me being sad had nothing to do with the question paper which came (actually somehow the question got leaked and i knew it) in other batches but i have to again revise (at least think of it). The previous day i had studied enough hours just to crawl over the passing marks.Due to the test i had to renounce some of the precious hours besides neglecting one of my top priorities. And when the test did not happen it left me highly disgruntled .Nevermind the test may happen tomorrow( and for godsake may it be the same paper).
Days in BHUBANESWAR during summer are really hot and today was no exception .Besides sky soaring temperatures making life miserable ,high humidity had left no stone unturn to make life hell too.Sometimes leaving in this stifling conditions compel me to imagine how life would have been if only my college would have been in switzerland or such similar locations. But then i cannot have everything at the same time .Often there are squalls giving us some temporary respite .But any how i have to dwell in this life-sapping and wretched conditions till my B-TECH is over. Who knows if this is a test and a beautiful future awaits me???Then again such future cannot be handed as a freebie to me .and i need to work in right direction without loosing sight of it....

Facing test

Well i feel sorry to announce that this space won't be occupying too much space today. This is inevitable as i really need to study "something" just to get through my test.But nevertheless this won't deter me to express my thoughts which cannot remain inside me for long.Today a topic on "minority report" was published in the TOI .In it was described the plight of muslims in our country and how they are lagging in almost all the spheres of life as compared to other castes .I myself being a resident of a small village has witnessed the plight of this community. Almost all my muslims friends never went to higher classes and were introduced into other jobs except studies.Neither the muslim boys were educated nor the girls.This directly affects the literacy rate in india and as a result hampers its' growth. The centre and the state must look into the matter seriously if it wants to improve the abject condition of the muslims. . More and more thoughts are waiting to jump out of me .But i have to seriously kill all those thoughts right now .Keep watching this space till then tc byee

The Redemption

It's time for me to unleash some thoughts on todays' proceedings.In reference to the comments which was mailed to me i sincerely apologize for the mistakes committed in my last blog.Being a cricket fanatic at least i shouldn't have spelled "bowlers" incorrectly . Again the misuse of "agog" wasn't one that could be let off easily.Anyways thanks for the precious comments .I would compel myself not to repeat such blunders .Though my exam on "linux" is well round the corner but there are some things which when i begin doing, others take a backseat.And blogging is one such thing.My day began with me sleeping late till 9am(thanks to hollywood for making some fantastic movies) and of course it was a sunday -a rest day(at least it's my right). Today while going through the "TOI " the news which struck me was that of MIT asking IIT to share it's courseware on the web .Thats something great .Lets see what would be the next step in this regard. As expected india pulled out a spectacular win over bangladesh .My happiness new no bounds when i heard sachin bagging the "MOS" award.But the real "acid" test will be now when they would be touring other dominant countries where they find themselves in hostile conditions.It was great to learn the we are the worlds largest diaspora.
Past few days something has been disturbing me .It was as if i was cheating myself or trying to avoid some tasks which i had consigned myself to do.It was the failure of not doing the job that was giving me the feeling of a convict. I cannot be dodgy to myself thats for sure and i cannot live a life out of it.So why not better carry out the tasks with great enthusiasm .The upshot would be there to see.Neither i am a workaholic nor i have paucity of time but somehow or the other i fell short of my commitments. On the spur of the moment i declare that i would leave no stone unturn to satiate myself(in term of commitments). So lets hit the nail on the head.... tc byee

The Reiteration

Two days and no blogging ???This was not the kind of commitment i had desired from myself when i took up the job. Whether or not i get the time to do my usual stuffs i must have to ensure that the number of my posts are disturbed regularly. I reiterate here that i will do this task with penchant and would leave no stone unturn to posts daily. Brushing all this aside i was agoged to learn that india piled up 610 runs with all the top batsmen notching up their indvidual hundreds. It was a day when each baller from bangladesh got clobbered all over (please feel sorry for them).Lets see how the match shapes up at the end and hope that india wins.Taking a cue from today's match i must also need to show the same commitment as Rahul dravid and others.Well i am lobbying myself to cut down on other jobs only to see that i can blog everyday.Today while pouring over the newspaper i learnt that bollywood has made hindi language course popular as it is being offered by the sydney 's centre for continuing education among Australian students.It's great to see hindi making foray into international arena.Coming to shilpa - gere controversy,it's really sad to see that how some people are harrased inorder to get cheap publicity.I think the law must be more stringent towards such cheap-minded people.One has got the every right to showcase his or her feelings keeping in mind the reverence and honour of our fellowmen.We indians are still captivated by the sexual stigma and we project ourselves as one of the developing nations.What a pity???More of the objectional contents are being shown in drawing-room .I firmly believe that it must be left to an individual what he desires to watch.

Well i am going to have my test in coming days and so i have to prepare for it(atleast i can hope so).I always have been a conscientious person.(now thats a bit true).Say no to movies for a day or so(though i watched "convoir" yesterday).Keep watching this space for more stuff and i promise i won't disappoint you. tc....byee

the beginning

winning elections on religious grounds still prevails in india.truly india is an amalgamation of different religions and we really proud of this fact. But these politicians fully rely on the majority of votes from a single force. They flourish due to a single sect alone . they are no better than the englishmen who ruled us by dividing as per our religions .Some rely on votes from muslims or yadavas or brahmins to name a few. its a really sad and grim affair. Elections must not be won on such cheap grounds but on humanitarian grounds. i personally hate these brand of politicians and will to do so. they are drums -all air and noise anyways one should and must vote as your vote must not be misused. thats all .........
