cant help but blog on pune...

its true, i cant help but blog on pune...i hate the place...hate the ppl...hate the general attitude towards life here...

but still few things i felt like sharing are out here...

1. our house cleaning lady - she said her son has failed in school, her daughter studies...but she doesnt know how to make her son study...now he failed a year...he is not dumb, nor uninitiative..he is suffering becoz of bullies and his solution to that is skippin a year.

2. the rickshawala - i hate rickshawala...but this one guy made a difference...he spoke to me in english..i was shocked but was too egoistic to admit it so i told myself he was a show off...turns out i was wrong...this man was retired...he spoke in fluent english coz he had a B.A. in English literature, he had a diploma in engineering coz he liked it...and later on workd in many famous foundries and industries...he taught himself all abt physics and math before learning engineering...

i was awestruck...i was still too adamant to accept i found someone out of ayn rand's book...further..he owned this rickshaw and gave it to some guy to rent...and after he retired he help that man buy a rickshaw on his own...so to get back the auto while not harming the other man...

3. the 'bhangarwala' - its a term used for ppl who collect trash like tins, glass bottle, etc by going from street to street basis and selling it off to get money...oh yeh and they collect it on 'hatgadi' which is a big cart on wheels very heavy to push...

so this man was old, when i say old i dont mean just old i mean a person who has worked all his life to get very little for himself, he looked tired, he was probably starved...he wore a red cap, his clothes were ragged...its was around 2 in the afternoon...damn hot and my mother and i were sweating and dehydrated...you can imagine the scene...this man cud barely push the cart he was so...god...i cursed myself for not asking him whether he ate anything or not...thats the least i cud have done...

i went and sat in a restaurent but cudnt bring myself to order anything...i was full of guilt..and i am still feeling guilty...i went out i looked for him...but cudnt find him...he must have disappeared into some lane..i looked for him and walked almost a km...but not use...

then it striked me...all of us talk abt one day doing some good in the world...but wat abt today? what have we done today? the least we can do is ask these ppl who try and survive without begging if they ate today...i still remember that man..and i wish peace on his soul and his life..

signing off with emotions

so many thoughts


today i had a detailed discussion on lots of topic with my LG...it made my brain work after a long time...

....i read a book...its known...'many lives many masters by Dr. brain weiss....excellent book...one must read it...i initially thought it hoax...but it isnt...i dint agree with all that he had to say...but i believed him....to be precise...my brain dint believe until half the book...but inside i knew it was true...

anyhow...other thought...i was walking over mula-mutha river...infamous...in pune of course...and it was so dirty...every year approx. one person commits suicide there and its so dirty...why wud anyone want to die in such a horrible place...its like a sewage...i was so grossed out with the thought...its horrible...

oh yeh...and wats up with swine flu H1N1...man i wish they cud find a cure for it...which as being a biotech student..i know how difficult it is...seriously where is the world headed?

the other day i was surfing and found a link which showed a photo of a 2 year old african boy...walking with a plastic barrel...the quote was...'he walks 1.5 km to daily to get water'...my heart ached....i am already a conscious water and electricity user...i further started using only what i really really need...

william wordsworth was right...What Man Has Made Of Man...

Twilight Fever


ok..i am hitched too..i admit the books drove me crazy but the movie and the utube interviews have made me an addict.

from past one week all i am doing is: check email and search more on robert pattinson.

God there is something about him which is very genuine at the same time i wonder if he a good person or not...everyone knows he doesnot wash his hair, keeps proposing to kristen (bella swan) is losing his mind bit by bit due to press pressure...he said he is scared of dating coz he doesnt want to ruin anyone's life...well if you act responsible i dont see how anyone can get hurt...and by saying this does it mean he wont date anyone...coz since he is young, his fame wont be convergent

anyhow...bigger the people, bigger the problem...

as for me...i love it...cant get enough of it...and i am not ashamed to say i google it every week...

The cliche of weddings

Ok, here is the thing, all my friends are mostly double. The most unexpected friend recently left back her single status.

Some are fixed with marriage commitments, others are shopping away in recession, without a concern, for their marriages.

So i inferred two things (A) I will be married sooner then I thought & (B) Life has changed!
I am no more a teenager, in few months I graduate, I will be officially an adult. i am no less than a baby when it comes to the thought of leaving college.

The memory is so fresh when my elder cousin told me before college had began - that these will be the best days of your life. I remember being aloof to the fact.

But then again after 3 months I will be telling it to all my juniors. Its not just about leaving away college or job or money,etc. Its simply the fact that my life will change drastically after just few year.

Some of my married friends (females) acknowledge me that 'I am no more myself, or what I use to be'. So every time the transition for women is much more than for men.

Isn't it sad? We worked so hard to get our lives right to get it as we wanted - we struggled so hard to make ourself as we are since the first time we realised we were an individual. We give it all up just like that in one day, in just few hours, we turn from a Miss to Mrs. - a smaller and different entity in a big household.

Don't get me wrong, I am not a female chauvinist. Its just that we educate women, we work equally with men. and yet what she is in her life is not payed much attention to by her blood relatives and nor by her 'in laws'.

bye.

i wanna be a rockstar

well it has been such a long long time since i heard a song that made sense...that wasnt meant for seducing, or traching someone...with a good beat...

well i heard rockstar by nickelback...awesome song...i am amazed as to how come for such a long time i havent heard this song before...

anyways..the song is perfect...great lyrics...great voice...good notes...well the guitar is perfect..not too soft nor too much...the video was also quiet impressive..they dint ruin it by showing chad kroeger....all the time...

well his voice...i am a huge fan of his voice....so i am biased there...

well i just cant stop singing that song...it just keeps going on and on...in my head..i was napping..and i was huming the tune tooo!!!!



lol...sure i wanna be a rockstar!!!


hehe

anymore good songs u know about???

lemme posted

well well well

ok since i have gotten mixed views on my blog on sex...i have decided to suspend it for a while...coz hey i am not here to hurt...

well well well...there are so many things i wanted to blog abt...but i guess since the time has passed, i might as well let it go...i wanted to mention abt me being aired on tv...for like milisecond and then having a close affinity to hardworking children...well...but thats that...

recently i have been faced with a dilemma though...wat can one do if he or she has changed drastically over a time of 1 year...and later found the older you...do u stay like u r or do u change back to older you...i guess everyone has to face similar cliche at some point of time...

for me as it goes...total solitude is a solution...for once you figure out urself then u can grip hold of the surroundings..but in this world can one get part solitude if not total?

no natural spaces left, no soothing sounds for streams...our nose does not even get colder in the wind anymore...its such a stuffy world...yet ppl run behind it...

sometimes i wish to become a billionaire and own an island and stay in population of 100...or return to 4 centuries back...earn money the hard way...work 16 hrs a day and get a peaceful sleep...no cafes, no restaurants, no bike or cars...just a stretch of grasslands...a horse and dog for companions...with a straw hat and big boots...just walking to find work and working to find peace...no music, no loudspeaker...the loudest sound that of the breeze....and of course....a partner to be with....

well well well...

wat say?

the part two of ***

back again with more views on sex...well i feel that i have to express on this topic...coz if i am conversating with someone on this subject, they might missunderstand me...or consider me as a nymph...both are untrue...

the new thought araised while i was reading the book - atlas shrugged by ayn rand...AMAZING book btw...so anyways she expresses her views as...sex is real when both ppl consider themselves equivalent...that players are nothing but kidding themselves, where as they have low self esteem on the contrary to what they portray as...

well i couldnt help but appreciate her analytic thought...evne i had similar ideas abt seeking partnership...if u r weak, overly sensitive...in short sad...dont look out for love or sex to protect u or save u or make ur life full of colour...coz all u might know...it might be just pseudojoy of few minutes and back to sad life.....

as i see it a person should be complete in his own life...i mean he should be satisfied and at peace...i know it sounds wired...but its true..coz then when u get a chance to experience physical joys...u are in it fully...its not being done for a feel better act...its done to enjoy the moment with u and ur partner...mutually...i believe its far more better..

also another aspect is that if u are indulging in physical activity out of stress or despair or desperation...well the other person comes to know of it...even if u dont hint it....and spoils the whole thing...

well lemme know ur view on the blog...

thats it for now..

the true about the ***

well no matter how modern you are or orthodox...one thing is alway just around the corner of ur mind...yes ppl i am talking abt the three lettered word that esp. indians dont talk on large...sex

we see it in all movies, mentiones or hinted on tv....ppl doing it all the time....but then many of us are actually deprived and guilty about it. we cant help but always wonder about some or the other context about sex.

if we forget it for a day, the world around us reminds us...so no use being all saint abt yourself.

we do despise the thickly romantic and players but we do wish to plung into a whole new land like indiana jones, on an adventure...which many of us dont end up doing..just dreaming.

but the thought that crossed my mind is...why do we indulge into thinking so much over it and instead not do it...on an average a youth thinks abt sex for say about half an hour a day..makes 3 n half in a week and 14 in a month...now imagine what its like in a year...

the hours he or she spents in order to make himself or herself as an 'irresistable' candidate...five times that of the thought process of sex thoughts...

the chances of getting laid?? maybe once or twice in a year..sad really..but this is the average...

atleast thats wat my current research and resources suggests..

also to be honest i am thinking a lot abt the way society and individual react to sex...they have stereotypes for it...its sad that one cannot venture along without having few eyebrows raised in his direction..

there is also a fine line between the playboy types and the honest venturer types...to be honest how can u tell the difference between the two??

lemme think over it...

but for now...c ya..

A bookish idea..

so heres the thing...i have been gone in hibernation for a while to read books..like harry potter 7, that thing called love, five point someone, a bit of catch22 and the best of speaking tree...

i had heard ppl say that book r the best way to spend time, and that its kind of a frnd...and since my childhood i use to think that all book are writen by 'them'. them, u know the smart beings..but now that i have come to realise is that these are book written by ppl like u n me...

they r not gifted or smart but went a step ahead with perseverance, which most of us lack. i did probably come across a thought which might turn into a good book, or as now there is a craze of movie made from books...but i wont, coz i lack wat it takes to make it possible...

but then wat if most of us try writing a book...it wud me insane i thought to myself...then i realise something...i have heard some ppl say that u shldn't watch tv series or certain type of movie becoz they brain wash u....but isnt wat the books do that too???

i mean we have so much faith in book...but they r afterall written by us not super beings...then all r brain washin us...in a way to say...but we just accept it, read it and love it...but not thinkin that the only reason we appreciate them is becoz we think they r authentic...

i mean i dont know if it sounds sane...but u r being brain washed when u think u r gettin knowledge from the ultimate source...let it be any book...encyclopedia, fiction, non-fiction, biographies, to religious books

the author manupilates fact n true components in order to sale it...the authencity is vanishing...but still ppl are voracious readers..and that is upsetting me for some reason..i tryin not be cynical...but hey who knows maybe i am manupilating this blog to brain wash...

no one will ever know.....

I am not commercial !

haha...not literally...but today a friend of mine told me that by blog is not commercial one but more like a diary and thats like a good thing...

i had heard it before...many ppl got blogs n stuff and they get money according to how many ppl log onto it...so thats kind different...but i definately dont dig that...

thinking of it...my blog is more like a dialogue between me n the sometimes unknown readers....ha ha...whom i kidding...its something i like doing...dont ask me why...but it wud be more supportive if u guys COMMENTED...its not that hard u know takes like 2 min. i know that atleast 10 ppl read it...they tell me there views while chating on msn...but dont take time to comment!...come on ppl...tell me if i am getting better at it...tell me if i sux at it!...anything!

hmmm....well thats all i want to say abt that

i wanted to put in something new that i realised today...young ppl r completely freaked out over commitments...well thats not new...but think abt it...if u do find someone good and inturn that person likes u..ask ur self why not? esp. guys out there...

wat r u waiting for? a better person to come around? maybe he or she will come...but may not like u...
and regarding being true to that person? how hard is it? sometime easy yet other times crazily out of control....

the trick is analyse y u r out of ur track...n within few moments u will realise that its not u who is in the wrong shoe but ur wild side....sure i might get attracked to someone...100% probabilty...but then its the age...isnt it? at some point of time...maybe every 6 months on average u might meet someone worth falling for...but its not long lasting...

decide for urself....is this person goin to be significant in my life after say 3-4 yrs? no...buzz off!...yes...then in wat ways? as a frnds...as a milestone..as a companion...come on...no one is that dumb as to not know his or her demand....

also dont be self centered...let ur ego go...

sure the world is becomin sex freak day by day...but then there is definately a person out there who feels the same as u do...trust me...i can bet on it...ppl grow...they dont remain childish or wild for long...hehe...life screws them enough to make them sensible...

oh yeh n if u think that u feel attracted to someone else other than ur bf/gf just becoz u r young...then...think of a senario when u r lik 70 n u like ur neighbouring old guy better just becoz he got less wrinkles then ur husband !!!...lol..cud happen u know...life is full of opportunities...but doesnt mean u jump on every and loose ur peace of mind in couple of months...

choa....enough of doctor date!...

ok i am embaressed

my last blog was sad..i truely get it..i sux at it...i agree...but what is it that a girl got to do...even a guy for that matter...sometimes in life..especially when u r out of ur parents cosy shelter...when u come across the most outrageous experiences...and u dont know how to judge it..u dont know whether u shld laf at urself...or cry or just ignore the matter...i believe it hampers ur power of judgement too...
my problem is...
i always want to do the rite thing...n many a times..i do it on self toll..i go out of the ways to do a certain thing...n at the end somehow i turn up looking like the bad guy, selfish...many ppl have got that misconception abt me...that i am rude, arrogant, self-centered...not random ppl...but my relatives too...
and wat i hate the most is that i cant find words to make them understand my thinking...for eg: if i am put into some crap n i dont know wat to say or wat to do...i choose to keep quiet....n ppl misinterpret it....gosh...
n its not like i do everything as per ''what the society might say'' but on those lonely nights, on those lonely occasions...when i look back at my life and realise...that i was no good to anyone...i collapse...i cant look at myself in the mirror....not that i get depressed..but i feel worthless...
also i am sure all of us feel like that many times....then y still we go ahead to judge someone...when we know we r not good enough in our own consciousness...why we do that to each other?

the good old flirting trick

hey...heres the thing....u know how i was in europe and all rite? so there was this driver called Fabio....he was italian....ok call me prejudice but i have heard that spaining and italian guys are full on flirting....

so this guys use to give me looks one in a while and then one day he asked me out on a date when i was alone in the bus which he was to drive us around....so my immediate reaction was no....coz i am commited and all....

so the thing is...he thought i was like 25...but i am much younger....oh and btw he is like 40...but a very charming and attractive guy....like if i wasnt commited i wud probably go for him....he told me that he is devorced and now happy to be single and all...i just listened coz meeting someone like him was new to me....wat was weird was the fact that when he learnt my true age...and he realised that i was like half his age...that dint stop him....he continued flirting...he had like this cool pair of goggles and he use to keep starting at me when i was around...i cud sense that....and then one day...since its summer and it was hot....(making it clear that i dint try to seduce him or anything) i wore a haulter neck top....i swear to god...he melted....i cud see the 'lust' in his eyes.....

and the whole thing went on and on....and finally one night we happen to be in the restaurent of the hotel we all were living in....and he had like a glass of wine....and he started getting a bit too comfortable....and started touching...now i dont like strange people touching me...and then he says...i love ur lips..i was like thank you in a polite sort of manner....and he tries touching them...i move back and warned him off...and in a matter of a second i just walked off....without saying a buy to him....

now in normal circumstances...i wud feel bad and apologise...for being rude....but in this case i feel that flirting is good but upto a limit...i dint mind him flirting with me but i just dont like ppl touching me....so wat i did was rite? or i cud have handled the situation in a better manner?

dont really know....but i sure hope that he was flirting with me coz he like 'me' and not just a girl that he thought of hitting on....oh yeh thats wat i hate...why dont guys just say that they r hittin on u coz they though u were good....and not make up personal stuff and endup hurting the woman....

well its a cliche....

hope that fabio certainly dint feel bad about it and wud not go around like this in future....

so...wats up with the piracy issue...?

watching pirated movies is considered unethical...why so? or why not?

bryan adam was quoted saying it in an interview of some sort...that his cd's are too expensive for a common man to enjoy it...thru mp3 formats, torrents, cds etc...he has more listeners and fans, plus more ppl get influenced by his music...so he is kinda full on piracy...

my aunt says that since i do most of the things considering morals...its bad of me to watch pirated movies...or using torrent...as far as my say to that is...i watch movies in the theatre so i technically give the producers n investors my share of money for entertainment...so i may not be compelled to pay a high price while purchasing the DVD for my personal collection later on....

moreover not all movies are worth even movie tickets...eg: after super flops from J Lo...i dont think i will watch her any movie for free either...n then there r movies like 'john tucker must die'...which is entertaining for max 2-3 watchs in a life time...so why shld i spend like 10 dollars for its show...in dhs its like 30 bucks...thats a lot...

its true that unlike 5 years back, now a movies success is considered based on how well it does in the first week...and very few movies are on cd stands in the end of that first week...so when i am actually watching at home or at a fnds place...everyone has got there profit...rite?

sometimes when i watch a lame movie, i feel like i have wasted the money on the cd, n i also feel bad when i watch a good movie on cd coz i feel i am cheating somehow.....dont know wats rite...but since i am still a student n dont earn my own living i think i shld keep my movie budget per month at minimal...so whether i like it or not...sometimes i just do watch the cds....

still cant help the guilt....signing off...

packing up my bags

i am out on a tour...n suppose to be packing my bags? why shld i do it...

i am kinda lazy...so when it comes to packing...i absolutely hate it...so it got me thinking...y not just ditch..i mean when our long ancestors were living...they were nomads....then dint care abt food or water or the bags (esp. when good ones cost like 60 dollars or more) , they dint even have a pair of underwears!!!...n here we are...people carry things like sun tan lotions to blades..to crapy things like an extra pair of torches...i mena come on...surely our life styles have changed....

but there is a fine line between nonsense packing n much needed items....u r going for holidays...y burden urself with the things u got at home...get the bare necessary things n get going...why purchase new pair of clothes for summer? ppl coming there r not going to look at u..n incase u r going to look for some kind of ''company'' then i think its foolish...coz u meet ppl on travel n hardly keep in touch with them...mostly coz u got no work with them n becoz if u r still in touch then they seriously wanna ditch u....

my point is...holidays n tours n things like that r meant for u to explore the place...to explore urself too...its not a good thing to go to a splush place n spend half a million like half-headed celebs do but so that u go to place that refresh u...like go for hike...u come to know ur physical limits..or go to the artcy place that might click a spark of creativity in u....

dont be the typical stereotype...chose to be diff. coz it aint going to matter how much u r bragging abt ur holiday to ur neighbour or ur colleage but its wat u learnt there that helped u cope with ur ever boring routined life after the vacation...

hope u like this article...leave a comment!...lemme know ur views...

life plays its tricks...


i grew up thinking that if u r true n remain honest...nothing will take toll too deep..the universe tends to reveal itself in a beautiful manner...not in my case...


yest i lost a dear frnd...i wont talk abt him...coz it was mutual to break the frndhsip...but i will tell u something u need to know...sometimes the world just cant digest pure relation btw 2 humans without giving it a bad name...if u dont name it..they ruin it...


i loved this frnd a lot....the most for that matter...in among my all frnds...


his foot print will be in my heart...n it might get smuged but i will remind me forever of him...

a new beinging

here i am again...strong n half confident...its hard to cope but beggars have no choice...u need to keep building things on ur own...instead for looking out for help, be the help...it might be too heavy on the first blog but i will express myself the way i choose to n not wat ppl want me to.

sometimes life just expects too much from u and gives very little...maybe u should remind ur self that its preparing u for tougher days....i dont know wat my life is going to take me to...but i sure am ready...! more like bring it on...lets c wat life has for me in store...
