' 3' * ' 3' = 09!

On December 3, after fighting a 3 hour long gruesome battle with the Department of Chemical Engineering's most elusive Course - CH203 (Material and Energy Balance), Semester 3 concluded. Sigh!
There's hardly anything I can indite about the battle as everything I wrote appeared Greek to me, then God knows what would it seem to others.
Anyhow, Semester 3 ended but eventually proved three things for me:

1. Chemical isnt the coolest branch on Earth,

2. Your CGPA is destined to revert back any time to the same figure from whence it started ,

3. Getting a C or D grade is a part and parcel of one's life. So one should get used to it as soon as possible, because the earlier one gets, the better it is!

Anyways, Year 2010 is around the corner, and thence is the fresh list of resolutions in the making. The bygone year bagan with a similar endeavour. The time is ripe now to analyse all of those good "365 days-old" resolutions and to psychoanalyze on how much I was successful in living upto them. So here it goes:

1. I will never loose hope and will always be highly optimistic. (Starting on a pretty serious note.)
The Year 2009 was devoid of any such day when yours truly lost hope or whatsoever. Thomso-09 was approaching, and it seemed yet again a Fest when yours truly would be without any Girls around him, but there yours truly didnt loose hope, and eventually a day before the Event from nowhere amidst the darkness came a girl (an old friend) with whom the time spent was wonderful. In many other cases, after performing dismally in few tests, I didnt loose hope and came back strongly in the next ones (However I still cannot understand why the hell did I perform dismally earlier, and consequently had to come back strongly later? Heights!)

2. I shall try my level best to enhance my knowledge in my domain (point to be noted : my domain), which will range from Hack-tips (next Ankit Fadia?) to Web-D and programming skills (XML in my hit-list!). (However no clue on what is going to be the fate of my conventional departmental and core courses . God save me from them!)
I did try my level best to enhance my knowledge in my domain, which ranged from learning XHTML, DHTML, Python, MySQL, PHP Programming languages to having good knowledge of Joomla, LINUX, XML. I even tried some hand on Hacking stuff, but in vain. I managed and did coding for few websites (Criitique, SAE, HawkTheMetallion) and preparing an 'Alumni Portal' is the next big thing to be done.

3. I will try not to spend too much bucks on insti canteen from the following semester. NO more maggis and late night paranthas. Only Bournvita (still thinking: hot or cold?) (This will not only be a relief for my parents but also good for my all-time bad health, as my mom says. I’ll try living upto that, but cant swear on that mama.)
Darn! I spent twice as much money I did last year. I ate Egg Fried Maggis and paranthas more than ever before, sometimes at least thrice a day. Many other items followed therafter. It still seems no relief for my parents on this one, but anyhow my health is improving. (Courtesy: Egg Fried Maggis?)

4. I will love all those who matter to me more than ever before. (Yes I will!)
Yes I did and Yes I will. Still when it comes to expressing your love towards your loved ones, I fail! I know I love them, but I cannot tell them how much I love them. I know this sounds weird, but this is the truth. I feel like shouting and saying "Why do I fail onto this?"

5. I will apologize and forget all my so-called enemies. (“Enemies” is a harsh word though. “Bad friends” seems good. Unfortunately met few such people this year, and unfortunately got into few hot-steamed arguments, but fortunately I do apologize and forgive all of them, and fortunately will refrain myself from such happenings in the future too.)
I kept myself away from all the brawls and fights. I accepted everyone the way he/she was, consequently loved everyone's company. As goes the saying – “The best vitamin for making friends: B1”.

6. I shall try to be more tactful and factful. (By the way as far as being tactful is concerned, I have shown such traits by fighting debates on net on some booming issues, and have turned out to be victorious. Thanks to my sheer intelligence! Ahem ahem! However as far as being factful is concerned, Engineers don’t need to worry on that. They do have lots of facts and never ending theories and laws. I hope this to exponentially increase in the days to come.)
Neither was I tactful, nor factful this year. I fell short of all the facts and tacts during my Fluid Dynamics Viva-Voce in 2-1, and Electronics Viva in 1-2. I performed miserably in both of them. I didnt participate in any Debates this year, neither did I read any serious Science stuff nor did I pay any heed to the outdated thories and laws. Hence, had to suffer badly.

7. I will try to minimize my laziness and will try being punctual. (Ah! This year I will try not being late to my lecture and practical classes. In the last sem, there was not even a single day when I was on time or in time. Always coming after the Prof had delievered the gist of that day’s lecture. Consequently had to sit like an idiot with everything going OHT(Over head transmission) for me. Laziness? Who really cares!)
I did abide by this resolution of mine completely. I wasnt late in any of the classes, practicals or tutorials. The only exception to this was a Fluid Prac Class (consequently got a Grade D), and Transport Phenomenon Lecture Class (was marked absent after coming late by just 2 minutes).

8. I will not laugh unnecessarily and will stop acting like an idiot knowingly. ( Had to tolerate few consequences of the above habits of mine this year. . . and they were big blunders. An example is here :read. Somehow just saved myself from these few embarrassing situations.)
I did laugh a lot - a lot! However didnt find myself in any of the embarassing situations or critical ones as last year. I loved laughing and enjoyed the company of people who laughed! LOL!

9. I wont call a nerd a 'ghissu', not tease anyone and not even pull anyones’s leg. (Never ever I dared to do such things in my school days. Was always calm and quiet (not like the usual nerd though), but hesitated being a part of such activities. However things changed here drastically and I love being a part of such idiotic stuff. Cant make sure whether I’ll live upto this resolution of mine or not?).
I was a part of all such activities this year also, and supported the groups doing such stuff. However after getting a branch change to Chemical, the Chemical people had a misconception of me being a 'ghissu' which was soon removed after my dismal performance in the TS-1. As Limp Bizkit puts it - "Everything happens for a reason!" So did it!

10. I will find out why the Google people unexpectedly removed their logos and Adsense feature from my blog. (I even got their letter in which they congratulated me for subscribing to this feature of theirs . . .and even promised me to send few dollar cash. . but then now its all over I guess:( )
I hardly cared about the Adsense case later. It looked wonderful last year after the letter I received, but later it just seemed an eye-candy which was of no big issue. (Grapes are sour, eh?)

11. I will keep on trying, trying and trying till I ultimately achieve what I actually want. (No doubts on this!)
I feel like laughing at this one now. I still can't figure out what I actually meant with this one. Was I looking at the Spider at that time, which reminded me of that good old story of the King Bruce of Scotland? Whatever it was, I hate writing anything more under this.

12. I will be a radiator to all those who wish to be with me. ('Radiators' in terms of Preety Sheenoy, a great writer, is a person with whom when you finish interacting you feel happy, positive and recharged. People feel happy to see them. They look forward to interacting with them. Radiators are fun to be with, upbeat and full of life. Ahem ahem )
I did interact with a lot of new people this year. Meeting a completely new class of 60 students, and then enjoying every little moment with them was something awesome. However the question of me being a radiator to them cannot be answered at the moment. This is yet another stupid resolution I made!

13. I will keep myself away from all the bad habits of this world, including fagging and boozing. (Yes! I will never indulge myself into this crap! Hmmm! This time serious.)
I did keep myself away from all the fags and booze stuff. All this seems crap to me, so no point in indulging into all this until and unless someone kills me and then forcibly make me do this. (Heights of insanity!?)

14. I will call you up everyday. (Guess who?)
I still wonder WHO? Ah, you? Did I, or did I not? I think I did, eh?

15. Oh yes! Forgot about grades and CGPA!. . .(Ok will write about this next time or next year :P)
As goes my second hypothesis "2. Your CGPA is destined to revert back anytime during your 4 year long time span", one can get an idea of what it means. CGPA has been all time fluctuating wave function for me. And as far as grades are concerned, I don't know why the hell am I so much obsessed with B’s and B+’s so much? I always end up getting an A or A+ in low credit courses, and getting a B or even worse in high credit courses. Try calling this Luck now!?

16. Try my best to keep up most of the above mentioned resolutions! (I am a bit apprehensive of this fact but i guess, I would).
Yes I did keep most of them, and effectively!


P.S: The Year 2009 seemed wonderful to me. Everything I did, everything I got, everything I managed to do, includes blessings of my Ma, Pa, and loved ones. Above all this, God was always there.

P.P.S: Its time to bid adieu to 2009, and welcome 2010 with full zeal. I still wonder why the hell is the administration of IIT-R calling us back on 30th December? Why cant they start the new Semester's proceedings few days later? Darn! One cannot even welcome 2010 being at Home!

P.P.P.S: I continued listening to my all time favorite band - My Chemical Romance, and continued to support my evergreen Liverpool Football Club even after their dismal exit from the Champions League.

P4S: As far as the title of the post is concerned, I have put it as 3*3=09! which is undoubtedly the correct Mathematics. However if thought otherwise, the 3 refers to the mighty number which had a great impact on me throughout the year, be it Semester 3 or CH-203, or December 3, or 3 hypothesis. 09 indeed refers to the Year 2009, which will always be remembered for many things. I have started loving 3-some also. LOL!

Cheers! Ciao ...

Into My Chemical Romance ...

With only 10 days remaining for the first dreaded thing of 2-1 at R-Land, I find it a perfect time to wake up my blogging spree and come out of the 4 months long hibernation. My inactivity at blogosphere could be accounted to the fact that I was way too reluctant to type anything. However I decided not to make this 4 month thing into 5 or even more, so i thought it was better to type rather be a slothful blogger.

The begin to the Second Year, rather 2-1 as they keep it, was something unexpected. Just after reaching R-Land leaving Doon 80 kilometres back, I shockingly came to know about a “Branch Change” on the very first day. Chemical, it was now, about which I would not in a thousand years be unhappy about. The idea of leaving Metallurgy did chafe me a bit because of a “little” friend circle I had made there. Though Changes are a part of life, so are Branch Changes, hence there i was in the Department of Chemical Engineering on the very next day for the Registration Bummer. All new faces with very few identifiable ones excited me. Everyone kept saying, “Welcome to Chemi-Cool”, and i idiotically kept nodding my head and saying, “Thanks” monotonously. I found many of them very helpful and nice, though only time would tell the real “Them”.

The only thing I dislike is the very fact that after this branch change I have to very soon shift my base from Jawahar to Cautley, which is like moving from a metro to a slum. This, however, I haven’t done yet and isn’t in my things-to-do list. However a trip to Cautley had been my everyday routine since the very first day. However my room at Jawahar is simply the best. It is quite spacious and with my stuff being placed systematically make it look more nicer and brilliant. A new pair of speakers echo superbly within Room No. FT-18 to the tunes of “My Chemical Romance” and my another stock of lovely numbers.

Life is really hectic here at IIT even after you enter into the second year, and that too in something called Chemicool. Workload remains the same, plus tutorials, practicals and quizzes still exist. Nothing like Cool yet. However I am accepting this with a smile because if I don’t I know this would prove to be fatal in the days to come.

P.S : I was always an Atheist, but one thing shocked me to the core. Read my last post – “Green Black Chemical Romance”. That was when I was in 1-2, i.e long time back. I never knew that whatever I ‘ll post at that time would be true in the days to come. Thank You God!

P.P.S: I have been doing coding for some of the websites, and very soon formation of a Local Chapter of an Organization is in the pipeline at IIT R, plus an e-Mag is under construction. All this would be highlighted at my blog in the days to come.

P.P.P.S: I love “My Chemical Romance” like anything, indeed i am into it. Only time would tell the real Chemical involved in this. (Its nothing like pun here.)

P4S: Life’s really like hell for me as of now. With no time for anything, it might take another some months for my next post. However if it is not so, that’s obviously a bonus.

Cheers! Ciao ...

Green-Black Chemical Romance . . .

Going ga-ga over Cobie amidst TS-1 left no stones unturned in leading my way through an average kind of performance with ballsing up most of the courses. Now with Season 1 completed and half way through Season 2 of How I Met Your Mother, i feel it a perfect time to wake up my blogging spree. Curse TS-2 and few allegiances which hindered me from doing this for the past one month or so. Moreover I expect the same in the ensuing one month. Curse another End Term Examination for this. Anyways enough of what i always hate doing, i.e. writing such stuff! There’s much more which i am willing to pen down.\

The aftermaths of TS-2 were contrary to those of TS-1. Both terribly different from each other. The former always keeps on taunting me, while the latter does gratifies me somehow. Mechanical Drawing yet remained a big conundrum to me. So was Thermo-D! Anyways talking about all this is like discussing Chelsea’s win over the minions Blackburn Rovers. Both of which I despise like anything. Moreover I just wrote another Conversation With God for the upcoming Youthzilla Issue, and writing this one was in itself a big experience. I might even get balls for being so rude to the Almighty. Perhaps God might even do this honor.

Anyways, they say that Crushes are short lived. Mine case seems to be pretty different. It is still doing good, i suppose. With an year about to end, the graph was supposed to decline exponentially, but for me it seems to be constant with time. The cheekiest thing which often fascinates me is the fact that all the Metallurgical Engineering students will soon be repositioned to a new Hostel (luckily adjacent to the Girls Hostel),which further signifies that the probability of glinting over the fille whom yours truly adore would rapidly enhance (And this matter is indeed devoid of any sort of pervertism which perverts should make it clear!).

I never got attracted to any sort of Chemistry – be it Physical, Inorganic or Organic. I detest studying any one of this in any of its form albeit the fact that I am yet stuck in a branch that demands nonetheless  the broaden prospective of each of these. However of late certain circumstances did lead me more into this CHEMICAL thing. The reference in the last paragraph might account for its credibility to a much broader extent. Chemical is supposed to be the coolest branch in the R-Land (reasons to me are yet unknown). Though I feel the old adage prodigy “Meta Rocks” somehow dilute the Cool-Chemical Combo to some level.  Inspite of all this freaking gimcrack, i wish I was in Chemical. Sounds flimsy, but yes circumstances have lead my way far away from all the mundane affairs. I love Chemical and My Chemical Romance (Pun intended intentionally). Branch Change was never my cup of tea nor would it be. By the way who the hell tried for it? Big Nerds sitting with their arse flashing would indeed never have let me even try to think about it. I appreciate this effort of theirs (My reference is to the flashing thing).

 Then you realize that no Meta in itself is an awesome group-cum-branch. Many a things however often narks 

me. Certain inhibitions within many of them does chafe me. Its almost the end of an year now, and  people still think once before saying ‘Hi’. Ultimately most of them end up saying nothing or showing off their dummy faces. School days were the days which were completely diametric to all this poop. Awesome group we had and amazing days were they. Nostalgia often come to its peak value when those days are remembered. Anyways talkin about all this diddly is of utter waste of time when you have End Terms knocking at your door. Though Chemical Romance isn’t!

So Meta it is as of now with registration already done for the next semester. 20 odd days to go and there yours truly enters into an all new brand world with loads of tasks to complete, which are of trifle importance as of now. I perhaps do remember my last visit to the Civil Lines, when I saw the girl in green (or was she wearing black?). Reason for the existence of this silly doubt is due to the fact that i would have looked an idiot amidst such a huge crowd staring at a girl. So i avoided doing that and that did lead me into a big confusion of the color she was wearing. Indeed i love both colors. Issue would be soon enlightened in the next post, hopefully!

P.S:  For Your Information, I just got my Thermo-D marks and as expected I did get what I deserve. Marks cant be revealed as of now. Though even the nice swots didn’t get as expected of them. As far as rest are concerned, Mechanical Drawing would get a similar treatment. Rest i assure wouldn’t be that bad. Hoping decent ones in the rest, and yes it started off with Engineering Drawing.

P.P.S: 'Chemical Romance + My Chemical Romance' sounds so fantabulous when pondered over simultaneously. 'Green/Black + Red' is another duad that would seem to be lovely (hopefully)! Moreover 'End Terms + CGPA' is yet another issue to be worked upon.

P.P.P.S: Reds fought valiantly against the Blooming-Blues, though as usual 'Nice Guys Finished Last'!  

Wish me luck !

Cheers! Chao. . . 

'G' GrOOves!. .fait ainsi. .Groupe de G ?

First things first! Friends, you don’t have an idea of the custard which I just had a taste of. It was unutterably the best. (Courtesy my Mom!). How can someone prepare such delicious food everytime I ask her for? Sheer magic! Hats Off! Thats why I was dying to reach my Home, rather “Home Sweet Home”. Indeed finally after two long months spent in the R-Land, I am back to my Home  and no doubt I am loving this all. By “all” I do mean “everything”. By the way who wants to miss “such delicious food”, “such delicious food” and yes “such delicious food”?  Though I am missing my lil sista’s late night gibbers. Credit goes to the Council of Indian School Certificate Examination (ICSE Board Exams). 

Talking of the bygone two Months, I tell you they were simply the worst days for quite a few reasons and simply the best days for the left-out few reasons. However the latter ones overruled the former ones, and in the nutshell the time spent was just OK (these two little words sometimes say it all). I had a hell lot of night-outs (don’t know why? Probably because I was busy doing stuff which i have always loved to do. This included some Programming fundas which none of you would give a brown krill about! ). Then i had another hell lot of bakars with my friends on so many many issues of this earth – “Why did Liverpool play without Gerrard?”,  “Why don’t we have a subject like Body Language in our courses?”, “Why was that not-so-hot chick pretending to be hot?”, “Who was not sleeping in the Electronics lecture today?”, “Should Slumdog Millionaire have got an Oscar?”, ”What  new article did you write for the Youthzilla Mag?”, “Did you see that awesome girl again?”, “Is she your crush?”, “ Why was she staring at you?” and blah blah. All this pretty non-sense illogical talk can sometimes go so long that sometimes when you by chance happen to look at your watch amidst it, you will find it is 4 in the morning. So involved you get into all this!

Anyways few days back an online friend of mine asked me- “Dude! How are your Batchmates? You don’t write about them in your blog articles!” Hmm! Umm! Ohh! Eh! Uh! Duh! Ah! Umm! Yes! Point to be noted. Did I ever write about them? Well being a blogger is it necessary? Or if it is so, then who am I to write about them?  Though being a proud member of BATCH G I should actually write. Aint it?

So folks here it is! A strength of 61 people make a "Batch G 2008 @ IITR". Thats how our community looks like on Orkut. In these 61, you’ll get a mix of everything. We have people from all parts of India. Each one of them a geek of its own kind. Few blab a lot, few rarely speak, many never speak, few always want others to initiate, and many have well-defined regions (i.e.groups) of their own beyond which they don’t dare to speak (Thats not within their range). This number if broken gives you 55 gu(a?)ys  (I doubt one!) and 6 gals. Check out this emphatic difference and the strange sex ratio. Perhaps six isn’t that bad a number when it comes to IITs.  If I tell you about the last Meta batch they only had one fem-sex , and she also got a branch change!  Now hows that for a nail in the coffin? By the way two of the six we have are also on the tragic path of making a branch change (their sky high CGs demonstrate this fact), but still we’ll be left out with four. Not bad! Eh? Lots to write about all of them, but better wait for some time. Let go this year!

P.S : All natives of R-Land. Do check out my two articles on the upcoming YOuthzilla issue. Comments would be awaited!

P.P.S : Mr. Vegeta! Muster your opinions for the upcoming match against ManU! LiverpOOl is surely gonna rock this time.

P.P.P.S : Six isnt that bad for a number. Even four is fine considering the IIT factor!

P.P.P.P.S : Batch G, no doubt is the best! Meta Meta ; Always! Keep Groovin!

I too Crush?

I just completed 17 episodes of HIMYM (How I Met Your Mother!) Season 1, and I tell you it was legen. . .wait for it. . .

I have been loving this series for two yet-so-weird reasons – “Graciously beautiful” Cobie’s smile and “Womanizer”  Barney’s attire (That rhymes! Aint it?). Even amidst the deadly T-S I couldnt avoid it. Result: Another horrific result expected. However the subjects which I love the most didnt face the repercussions of this insatiable love of mine. I “probably” wrote the best answers in Behavioral Sciences, and “probably”drew the correct figures in Engineering Graphics.

Flashback !

Sem 1 Day 1: Saw a girl, which I couldnt believe was going to be one of yet another bunch of great Engineers (including me :P) to be admitted in the R-Land (as they call it). They usually say that this world is devoid of the species which you are used to in your native land . My native land being Dehradun, so I was unable to comprehend this obviousness of watching a damsel in this dreary world. However they say, “If you really try to achieve something, the whole world conspires in your favour”. So did the  JEE Committee by sending me? Or rather “her” to the same place! I tell you I was completely lost, enraptured and mesmerized. That girl was just awesome! Awesomeness can‘t be solely personified to describe her. My eyes were continually following her. Darn! It seemed like i had detected an oasis in the middle of a dreary desert. The beauty showering from her face seemed to be ineffable.  “Abhishek Bangrania, BTech Metallurgical & Materials Engineering”. . . .”Abhishek Bangraniaaaaaa.....”, . . . . “Are you here?”. . .I was still appreciating her beauty unaware of the whole world, when suddenly my father nudged me from behind saying, “Go Son! Go! What have you been waiting here for so long?” Startled and dazzled, I moved to the counter where our registration was being done thinking whether my father noticed me admiring that beauty  or not.  On reaching the counter, I confronted a Bald Man(BM) sitting beside another Bald Man(BM2).

Me: “Sir! I am Abhishek Bangrania,  BTech Metallurgical &Materials Engineering.“

BM: “So what?”

Me(Stammering): “Sir! You called my name. . . .f for that re. . registration thing.”

BM(after looking into a sheet kept on the table):”Yes! I did and that too three times. Where were you?”

Me: “Sorry Sir! I am really very sorry.”

Then followed my first ever advices in the IIT life.

BM(sarcastically):  ”Do you know? Being late is a crime here in IIT!”

BM2 (supporting BM1):  “Boy! This is not the Registration going in your School. You ought to be punctual here. By the way what were you upto? We called your name three times, and still you didnt reply?”

Me:  ”Sir! I was admiring the beauty of that girl in White. Hope you also do the same. Will you?”, was what came to my mind initially. Howeverer i just said, “S. S. . . Sorry  Sir!”

BM: “Yes you should be! However as of now  we have skipped your name . Now we’ll call your name after everyone’s turn gets over, more precisely at the last.”

Me : “Thank you sir!”

Thus I came back from that embarassing  situation, and narrated everything to my father. He too started giving advices that i should be vigilant in such important times.

Dad(angrily):”I have always told you that you should be active in such important times.”

Me: “I know dad.”

Dad : “Then what were you doing outside this hall when you knew that your name was about to be called??”

Me(stammering): “Me....nothing. . ..what could i have been doing? Just admiring the beauty of  an all new awesome place.”

Dad: “You got time for this crap right now,  when they have already announced it so many times that all Metallurgical students should be present inside the Hall. Regarding admiring the beauty of this place, you have 4 long years for that.”

Me: “Sorry dad!. . .but nothing can be done now. Aint it? However I wouldn’t commit such silly mistakes from now on.”

 There I sat again on  that about-to-break chair with my eyes searching for that beauty again, but in vain. Darn! She was gone. So were my hopes. “Will I ever see her again?” “I couldnt even find out her name”. I felt so hopeless, but ‘Ah! Life’s like this.’

Sem 2 Day 46: Yes! I did find out that girl. I like this girl. Her name, department and everything on this Earth. I like this girl. This girl always makes me to smile and feel so pleasant whenever she is around me (somewhere). I like this girl. A goofy grin on my face proves the same. I like this girl. A big crush? Is it? I like this girl. Whatever it may be hardly matters because if this is a crush, then I dont know if I could take the real thing if it happens. I like this girl. Crushes are meant to be like this only. I like this girl. Everyone has one or more?  I like this girl. Mine first in College (and probably the last). I like this girl. However , “Why do they call it a crush?”. I like this girl. This question always confuses me. I like this girl.

P.S.  Barney! Your style is just too good. Cobie! Your smile is just too good. #$^&#%$! I got a crush on you. Though, I like you all.

P.P.S. I hate those two bald men, who eventually turned out to be my Physics lecturers. Another brick in the wall. Err! Another nail in the coffin.

P.P.P.S. I like you! But why do they call it a Crush? Probably because that’s how you feel when the same way in return. Ah! Life’s like this. Aint it?

. . . . . .dary.

SHE says: "YOU cant beat ME for a DOLL!"

Hello people! Today I am going to write about my favorite topic…My Doll! Ha just kidding!
Even if a little girl played with her little lifeless doll, still she would be beaten up black and blue…just 'coz some people might "suspect" her of stealing Rs 280! Yeah you got it right…I was indeed approaching THAT same topic which presently you are thinking about. But as we head for it…lets take a diversion and just see what we actually wish to discuss. Police Brutality? (hey that's a level in the Max-Payne 1 game!). Arre what to discuss about the thing that has existed for all these years! As Dr. Kiran Bedi had said…the policemen beating up the little girl were not doing what they did as policemen (?) but as frustrated human beings. Frustrated 'coz those guys are controlled by higher position guys who in turn make these guys do whatever THEY want them to do. Perhaps she is right. We never really imagine the situation of the police personnel out there…having to be insulted by the public coz they don't do their duty, and being bullied by their "seniors", who don't LET them do their duty! Yeah it sounds much like Hindi-film melodrama….but can't help it. Like imagine….you are in a thankless job…where the pay is not so hi-fi like the tech guys, and the slightest mistake gets you the attention of all the public of India who just love thrashing you for every rhyme and reason….and on top of that…you are not even allowed to do the job for which you have been appointed! And enter the guys who break rules, and tell you people "we are so and so's son" and that's the end of it…you get transferred to some place! But also imagine,somebody is telling you that they support you….and that you kindly change….but like a stubborn bull, you just refuse to budge. And as a demo of your power, you beat up little children( coz little children don't know about their rights and they are easy targets). Two sides of the same coin? Or like Anit-matter and matter? Whatever it is….nobody has any rights to beat up a person who has "supposedly stolen" something! Least of all,a little 6-year-old girl. So what exactly do WE do? Wait and Watch? (as usual)? Or try and take a resolve to help the police beat up more….oops…I meant help the police to maintain law and order? (as unusual). In the end…perhaps the cliché about India does ring in our heads - "Yeh India hai yaar,yahan kuch nahin hone waala."

P.S: Truly said ANu! This one is superb, fantastic, fantabulous! Really such an amazing article on a yet so booming issue. I hope that the desired message is conveyed to one and all. Moreover I really appreciate your efforts for writing something for this silly blog of mine :P. Loved that seriously!

C2D? C21? CCD? or Cognac?

Is another FPS in its making? When one’s College Life moves onto a track full of hurdles, “beware” is the word which strikes the cerbrum (or medulla?) of one’s brain. In such situations, one needs to unzip this conundrum by finding out some soothing solutions, which could steer the sufferer to safety. However neither am I an expert nor a pychiatrist. How about being a sufferer? Am I ?

By the Way, the System is not to be cursed. All Hail the System! A new sem usually brings a lot of hopes and expectations, both way.  Another lot of Prac Wok, Assignments, Tutorials is however quite irritating again. Moreover  speculation is rife that second sem usually brings a downfall in your existing performance. “Existing was disgusting though”, but what could be more worse than that. God knows!  “Chill” is the word i love the most. “One needs to chill in such situations”, my friend says, who his himself another FPS. What can one expect from such people? Obviously such advices! Its all about “Be Positive”. However i still do abide by this saying , because i love the word “chill”, or rather the letter  “C”. This January month will soon pass by giving me nothing except the pleasure of the world of such “C’s”.

It started after the First-Sem sabotage. Everyone was inflicted with lots of tribulations. All were in a state of turmoil (leaving out the big Nerds though. The dont belong to “C” group. Theirs is an elite group called “The F group”, which is not obnoxious anyhow. F= Fantastic + Fantabulous +. . . . :P). The results mysified my chronicles too. Then came the solution. (By the way whose was it?) We decided for C2D, i.e CoOperae to Dominate. The logic is however dissimilar to that of Chetan Bhagat’s. His depicted the revolt against the System. However, ours is not the revolt against the System (else surely another FPS will be in the Markets!). This is against the big F Nerds (‘F’ you know why :D!).  Lets see how it goes. Chill, as of now!

Life’s like that! Isnt it? Just Chill and enjoy the worldly pleasure of the C’s around you, except few obnoxious ones though. However never entangle yourselves with Cognac! It might be harmful. Hmm a serious advice.:D

P.S: ” CCD Dehradun”, I miss you! Roorkee one seems to be quite dull without “you”. How’s life over there?

P.P.S:  C-21, mine favorite at present. Lovely numbers from lovely voices is indeed lovely to hear. So dont wait and just start googling these ineffable numbers. You’ll love them and feel chilled! By the way its all about “C!”

P.P.P.S: Has CCTC to do something with my C’s. Certainly not! Dont dare to get into this misconception, else you will fall into a ditch where no one is going to steer you to saftey either from Chandani Chowk or China!

I love Coloratura also! Chill! Chao. . . . .
