Of Books, Friends n Colleagues

Its been a while....but then...is baar pair zameen mein gade rahenge :)
chaddo....baad ki baad mein sochenge

since i last posted....lots has happened...let me just put down few of those lots

am getting into the reading mode again....as in not padhai...bole to novel shovel
apun ko bhi ekdum fiction wagera padne mein bahut masti aata hai

now...did i in my previous posts mention that i have tried many times to put on the reading habit...but everytime...most of the times...i picked up the wrong book
now...wat is the wrong book...its basically the book i dont like...or which i think i like...but i intrinsically dont like (some of u might be inclined to ask...intrinsically bole to kaha se...phephde se...ya gurde se....iska jawab hai...dil se...applause applause)
i like fiction...i like books with a lot of emotions n no flowery language...or frederick forsyth type books :D
so if i try to read bout india's economy, or a budding entrepreneur, obviously i will sleep off every now n then...sahi hai ki nahi

so over the last few days...i read...
a few short stories by rk laxman (read two stories...i guess they were "salt n dust" and "guru". I found guru a bit....i dunno wat word to use...i felt uncomfortable after reading that...maybe a bit angry...i dunno...just that it seemed to be an attempt at humour...when i found the story quite tragic to most of the characters....)

inscrutable americans (liked the first half...baad mein kaafi drag kiya hai)

mistress...by anita nair...(amazing book...though i dropped the flowery description of the navarassas of kathakali)

ishmael....by daniel quinn (didnt like it...the idea of a preaching gorilla was good..but it was too much gyan)

now..reading snow..by orhan pamuk...liking it till now....till now also liking his way of writing by painting the picture of scenario thru words....(dunno if i will like it for long though...it kind of lies on the border of too much description/flowery language)


apart from that....on the professional front...have realized if i am angry/disgusted/uninterested etc...it shows on my face....n worse...i dont try to make any attempt to hide it...it just shows i guess...
why am i saying this...isse aage aur public blog mein nahi likhunga

today i was talking to my manager....very nice guy...he is also new in the firm...
he was saying in consulting....one has to be really flexible with his/her personal life DUE to professional committments...
i disagreed....n i told him
he said...at least in the first few yrs
i again disagreed..n i told him why...
i beleive its a choice u make....at times...for me...personal committments will ALWAYS be more important....the people i love....they are the MOST important for me...

hmm...learning to drink in controlled way...the other day...a colleague...got drunk
i dont like people trying to pry out information from drunk people....

before i end....bout friends
have been in touch with my close friends from wimwi
bhaskar, nidhi, titto, randolf...
being in KL, telephone touch has been less...but then have been in touch
but then can already see....plans to keep meeting n all....fall apart...there was a get together in blore last weekend...i could not make it...since i was visiting my parents...
titto could not make it...

baaki....old friend like deka have totally disappeared...now even pings dont get replies...log busy ho jaate hai life mein
few friends i hadnt kept much in touch with...have been keeping in touch with them
i miss sam dadda ke funde....woh bhi gayab se ho gaye hai

ah....came to know of the marriage of a a once upon a time friend...called her...congratulated her...hung up the phone...thought i would pass a few sarcastic remarks of how happy i was to (not) receive her marriage invitation...but then let it be...kaiku shaadi ke din mood kharab karna kisi ka

i guess if u dont stay in touch....people just drift away...grow distant...
n why dont we keep in touch...maybe we just take people for granted....very wrong thing to do i must say....baad mein g***d lagti hai dosti ki...

on that piece of gyan....i sign off
will keep posting dost log....
abih ke liye

Why India?

Now this is a very serious post. Can u sense the seriousness of the first statement itself.

This post is my response to whoever asks me, why dont u take a job abroad? why did u give up ur foreign job offer? kyu? why?

Here is why:

- When I wake up in the morning, I like walking up to the nearest chai ka thela n having a hot cup of chai (at least I do that here in IIMA)

- All my dreams, fantasies is about Indian girls. Indian women are the most beautiful in the world (in that assamese girls are the prettiest :D :D)

- I donot want to walk into a restaurant, ask the waiter/tress for the menu, stare at the various menu items for half n hour, donot understand shit about what the food items are, order something that seems palatable and i think its gonna be filling, n then sparkling white plate with a tiny centre occupied by some strangely cooked chicken, some cauliflower n a potato...n then chuck out 250 HongKong Dollars (250 * 5.5 Rs) for this crap (True story...though I was the one eating...pay kisi aur ne kiya :D)

- I love walking into cheap ice cream parlours and have 3,4,5 scoops of ice creams of diff flavours

- I love eating with my hands

- I love wiping my nose with the back of my arm when I am jogging n my nose is flowing...i dont have to care of what people think...coz on my way to the jogging park, i see 3 other people doing the same thing :o)

- i plan to own a bike as soon as i pass out. i dont wnt to be in a place where owning a bike is eqvt to being a hippy

- on a serious note, i want to parallelly contribute to the developmental sector through active work

- on MOST IMPORTANTLY, i cannot..n when i say i cnnot, i REAALLLLLY REALLLLY mean i CANNOT live without WASHING my arse with WATER after crapping...TOILET PAPER DOWN DOWN

Blowing in the wind...

Imagine the following scenarios:

1. 3 or more people in the room. Someone farts. Its a silent killer. Ur nasal hair is on the brink of incineration. What do u do? U twitch ur nose, and gasp for air. Now no one knows who has farted. So some of the other people would also imitate u, while some would act as if nothing happened (how can they do that, this is chemical warfare we are taking about here?!!!!). Anyway, finally no one knows or accepts who did it.

2. 3 or more people in the room. U fart. U thank god that its a silent one. But then they are the one's which are most hazardous environmentally n biologically (hazard for the others in the room). U wait for sometime to see if someone twitches his/her nose. U dont want to be the first one to jump at acknowledging the smell and get caught in the act. But after a considerable time (considerable here is contextual) if no one twitches, u either let it go, or play the whistleblower n gasp for air, and might even blame someone else. At the end of it, no one gets caught or accepts the blame (coz u farted n no one knows that u farted, or even if someone has his/her doubts, no one can prove anything)

3. 2 people in the room. The other person farts. U r about to die of suffocation. U make a face, look at him, give one of those smiles which has "I know wat u did last minute" written all over it. U try to stand the smell, but if its too much, u walk out. Now the walking out excuse would depend on the bonding u share with the other person. If its strong, u shout a few abuses, accuse the person of attempted homicide/manslaughter (it might have been involuntary u see, gastrointestinal muscles has their own way of acting/reacting) and walk out. If its not that strong, say u have to go to someone else's room or for a smoke (u donot say that u r going to the restroom, else the other person, even though guilty might accuse u of the sin).

4. 2 people in the room. U fart. The atmosphere has become poisonous since its one of those farts which happen after a missed shit in the morning. U avoid the other person's gaze and just hope that he is gentleman enough to not react, and his lungs are strong enough to bear the brunt of ur gaseous onslaught.


"Exam in 1 hour" disclaimers apply to this post :o)

Cleanliness Drive

Woke up today morning (afternoon actually). Yesterday was Diwali. The whole day was in the room. Didnt want to celebrate. So consciously decided not to. Didnt even take a bath :D. However did have 3-4 pegs at night. Achi daru kisi bhi din chalti hai yaar, diwali or no diwali.

Neway, today morning, woke up and decided, room needs to be cleaned. Have got many pointers from inside (ie from myself) and from outside that room needs to be cleaned. Lemme just point out the outside pointers (just a couple of them):
1. Ashok sir comes to room, and starts coughing. I said what happened. He said, kuch nahi yaar, dust allergy hai. I wasnt smoking, so there was no smoke in the room. Looked around, and could see a clear beautiful layer of dust on my tables n laptop etc etc

2. Supriya and Khetan came to room for Amaethon speakers cell meet. Me being the gentleman i am, offered the chair to Supriya (since the other chair had clothes piled up, n the bed also was full of clothes n stuff). She sat and typed something on the laptop, n said, Nalayak, yeh kya ganda hai tera laptop. Typing on my lappie led to dust on her fingers :D

Neway, external pointers hardly matter in my decisions most of the time. So today afternoon, i felt its time to clean up the room. Also, was symbolic of my cleaning up some more of my memories of the past :o)
So it took me around 2 hours to clean up and realign the room (shifted the bed to the other side from one side, n the the stuff which was on the other side, to the side which was the bed side :o))
Finally, i felt very happy, proud and satisfied that the room was clean.
Went a step further, decided to get a haircut also. But the bloody festival season ensured that the barber shop was closed. Neway, shaved off my stubble (ok it wasnt a stubble, one week without shaving gets me more than a stubble, almost a beard) and went to the gymn after a long time. Had been running on most days, but the gymn had stopped.
So gymned, ran, played badi, took a bath, went out in search of cigs, found a couple, bought them, came back, n now am in my room :o)
Nice day.

Oh btw, am on fast today. Not for any religious reason, just that had eaten a lot over the last few days, and hadnt exercised also, so actally not feeling hungry today :o)
Tomorrow also, have put a condition for myself, that i have to wake up in the morning n run n then have breakfast.
Paagal hoon mai :D
But i dont mind :o)

Bored...Very Bored

Its Diwali today...n i am fatally bored. Woke up late, actually woke up just now n have no idea of what to do over the next couple of days. Have lots of constructive stuff to do actually if i want to, lekin kambakth mann nahi kar raha.
The trip to Pondicherry would have been good. Actually was talking to Hitch the other day. Felt that should have gone to Pondicheery. However, staying back did accomplish significant work. But at the end of the day, the trip i had longed for since i came back from home didnt happen. Which is a tragedy.
NEEDED that trip.

Neway, now, cant think of much to do here on campus. As Randolf or Titto would define, I am an anti social person. So living up to those expectations, not really into festival celebrations. Bore hota hai. So thinking of what to do. One of things i could think of was crib n that is why typing this post :D

Hope u people have a better diwali.
Adios

The Stare Game

Me in this Gujju restaurant Govardhan. All banter goin on. Me never good at it (n am sure wont really get good at it either...wat the hell :D)
N here a pretty gujju female enters with whole family. She is pretty in black.
Sits far across the room. For me, her profile is right in front of me (but for her mom n my friend who keep blocking the view from time to time). For her, she has to move her head a bit sideways to catch my glance.
She catches me glancing at her. On any other day, i would have looked in the other direction. Not today. I continue looking.
She also does not move her gaze.
Eyes locked. No smiles. But eyes locked. Not in the angry lock. But eyes locked.
The stare breaks from time to time when i get scared her mom is looking at me, or she gets scared her mom is looking at her, or the many environmental obstacles block our intimate stare.
Then the eyes meet again...And we look at each other...






N Then...






The bill is paid, we get up, I get up and leave, without even a goodbye glance :D

Kaagaz ke sher hai hum miya...lekin aaj pehla kadam tha...ab aage dekhte hai kadam kaha le jaate hai :D inshallah

Eye of the Beholder :o)

Had seen a movie by this name. Saw Ashley Judd for the first time...fell in love with her (and have fallen in love with her again n again over n over as i see many of the "clips" of her movies :D)

Neway, this post is not about pornographic movie clips. Though i would make a point bout pornography too. But then this post is about eye contact.

Did i mention in one of my previous posts that we are having this course in communication. The prof is good. So he was saying something bout eye contact. And then gave interesting tit bits. He said, that when u first meet someone, ur eyes meet, as in a hello, n then they move away, moving over the face, as u try n absorb the person in ur mind. The eyes dont meet for very long. Coz those long engaging gazes are usually for two reasons. One is something me n sam dadda used to discuss in bangalore which is when eyes express unexpressable emotions for eg. Madar c***, bhan ke L**** mai tera khoon bhi piyunga aur teri ma bhi c*** doonga :D.
And coincidentally, the other is also when ur eyes express emotions, but these are emotions of the finer sense. Havent u seen two lovers just look into each others' eyes n say nothing. In case u havent u need to go n see some hindi movies or just go to some lover's park in some city n watch all the love birds.

So basically looking long long enough into another person's eyes (not staring or glaring) expresses a comfort level which most people dont share. So if u (guys) try looking into a girl's eyes long enough, u might be accused of acting "fresh" (never understoond why the term came up...acting fresh...as if we guys dont brush or something).
But then it might be exciting to try it out sometime. I tried it out the other day in class with an exchange student, n her pupils enlarged.

Now that is a good sign. Coz when u see something that u like seeing, then ur pupils enlarge to let more light n more of the image in (now do u remember pornography...yes...guys...when u watch porn...ur pupils enlarge ie open up more).
Now if any of u sick minds try to draw an analogy between the pupils of the exchange student enlarging n pornography, i should be coming down to ur place n giving u "one tight slap" (as in mtv or channel v).
N on any other day, i would have been overjoyed noticing the enlarged pupils :o)...but then right now...naaaaaaahhh
i wont say i like being alone....but then i dont like any other person invading my loneliness :o) isliye parakrami anurag dutta fight nahi marenge...aur baaki sabhi fighters ko sampoorna samarthan denge...gusshow gusshow full support full support

n me...have to wait another hour to burn my lungs... :o)

Signatures

of emails. Not actual signatures. Now many of u might know i am a dabbler in handwriting analysis, but then dont worry wont bore u with that.

I have been thinking...should put a joke for my signature. Acha rahega nahi. When people are done reading my mail, then they would at least laugh at the joke :D
But the problem remains, all the jokes i know are non veg ones :o) Actually used to know many good (n bad) jokes, but forgot most. Now to just remember Jeevan ke kuch satya which are again not very decent :o) NIT Guys would know what i mean :D

So not putting the joke also in signature. Also, many a times u dont want to sign off in a mail. Coz the way u want to sign off, may not be appropriate under given circumstances. Like if i am writing a mail to my boss in my previous company, i would like to end saying...Hope u rot in hell arsehole and the devil mates with ur wife regularly in front of u, but then i wont be able to do that right...its not appropriate :D
Also, on a more serious note, the ending signature in a mail is supposed to show one's emotions. That again is a problem many a time.

So i have decided to drop signatures from some specific mails. Now if u get a mail from me without a signature, u have a puzzle to solve. Is there a hidden meaning behind the absence of it, or is it just that i didnt sign it off :D

Adios (See here i am signing off :D)

TimeTable

I used to love “studying” the time table. It was a favourite past time. Me and Titto used to spend over an hour sometimes making plans of what subjects to take n wat not to take, which subject would be load free, etc etc.

Last term, before bidding, the time table was something very imp for me since I had to select subjects which fell only in the first half of the week. Got them.

Then when I was going home this time, it was a Thursday. Had plans of studying the time table and planning stuff for the 5^th term. It was in the front pocket of my bag.

Remained there. Never opened it.

Now I don’t enjoy studying the time table any more.

Chalo koi nahi. There are many things that have changed.

I don’t enjoy watching the television anymore. I don’t like making plans for the future, coz they invariably fail. My choice of movies has also changed to some extent from pure action to non action also. Have made some very arbit n crazy decisions, but I will stick to them. Coz determination on some fronts has increased :o)

So the wheel of time moves on. I move along. And we move together on the path of life (me and time re…wat else :o))

Friday the 13th

They say its a very bad day. Jason kills innocent teenagers on Friday the 13th.
This july 13th was a friday. But is was a beautiful day. And will always remain so.

Dhuan

My parents knew that I smoke. But then I haven’t really “openly” smoked at home. Now this time, I have pledged to try n reduce smoking. And my supposed target is 2 per day. Damn. I myself know consciously n unconsciously that I wont be able to cap it at that. But then, let me try my best at whatever is possible.
Neway, now I atleast have the liberty to smoke in my backyard :o) Hence smoking is official now. Just that the cap thingy stays :o)
Talking bout smoke, have u ever seen smoke coming out of ne part of ur body other than the nostrils or the mouth (thru cigs) ? Now maybe some of u fart poisonous gases (have known a few instances wherein the respite of one individual has known to almost burn other people’s nasal hair…keyur gondalia are u listening :D
Neway, right after my arrival here, in less than 24 hours, I could see smoke coming out of my legs. It was actually a coterization session for the corns in my leg. Before each “electrical” burning, I was given a local anesthesia, n DAMN…that is the most painful part. Coz the needle is pushed in, n its moved around once its deep inside, so anaesthesize the area. And when we are talking bout the leg, its more difficult to push in the needle. Also the anaesthesia fluid is quite heavy. Neway, what I am trying to tell is that is VERY painful. I am quite used to taking normal injections. During engineering once, I was diagnosed with irritable bowel syndrome, wherein whatever I ate, left the body in a span of a couple of hours. So the doc in baby memorial gave me a dosage of 2 injections per day for 2 weeks or so. So every afternoon, I would go to the medical centre, n the get the injections. They said it would be less painful in the butt, but u tell an engineering student to take injections in the butt, its hardly plausible that he would oblige. Hence my arms (alternate ones on alternate days) would take the brunt.
Neway, so what I was saying was, on Saturday, after each injection, I could see myself being burnt :o) Hmm…n I didn’t actually dislike the smell.
Neway, right now am resting at home. And the one thing I dislike, rather hate, is having nothing to do. When u have nothing to do by choice, then u still can find things to do like read etc. But when its by force like not being able to move around, then u wont even feel like reading etc. The biggest manifestation of this (n probably other influences, especially some people :o)) is that I donot even feel like watching TV :o)
Neway, it’s the usual me getting bored at home in 2-3 days syndrome. So now counting days to get back to the normalcy of college n work :o)

Aaj karo so kal karo

kal karo so parso...itni jaldi kya hai bhaiya jab jeena hai barso

now many people would disagree, but then i am an example who suffers due to doing the opposite many a time.
for example, now i have all these posts which i had composed beforehand and thought would post them slowly, so that i get hits.

now they are too old, but i will still post them, coz i wrote them and this is my blog.

and the worst part is, this post where i am describing this agony of my life, is gonna be right at the end of all the posts. so there is little chance neone is gonna read this. but i am still gonna post all those posts, with of course the p.s. at the bottom saying they are old :o)

Honeymoon Travels

Mid terms got over a coupla weeks back. One of my previous posts would have described how they went :o). Hence it was but obvious that I n most of my friends were pretty frustrate (not the engineering college kinda frustration ;o)).

So we decided, aaj bahar khaana hai, aur movie bhi dekhni hai n yes it was randolf’s bday too (poor soul agreed to treat us in Pride n got robbed of 1600 bucks…but I warned him beforehand :o)).

So we went n watched honeymoon travels. Now many people would review the movie as crappy n all. I just loved it :o)

But then to love this movie, there are some prerequisites (for me no prerequisites coz I invariably till today have liked every movie I saw in a theatre, so whichever movie breaks the jinx, be assured, it would one of the worst movies ever made :o)).

1. U have to be frustrated (please check out a disclaimer about the definition of frustration in one of the previous paragraphs)
2. U have to have a mind (there are no laughtracks in the movie so u have to know when to laugh)
3. U must (very very very important) keep ur brains in the seat next to u. In case its not empty, then give it to the watchman outside. Now u would ask, why trouble the watchman, I myself can hold it without using it? No. Because it has been scientifically proven (don’t ask who proved it, who knows n who cares :o)) that proximity to brain or brainy individuals can lead to brainy behaviour, n that is one thing u cant have if u want to enjoy this movie

Once these prerequisites are fulfilled, just sit back n enjoy. Awesome time pass movie, with jignesh bhai, hari bhai, superman n woman, ….. just watch it :o)

P.S. Some of the brainy people of who are reading this post might want to point out the fact that I contradicted myself in prerequisites 2 n 3 where in 2 I said u need a mind n 3 I said u have to keep aside ur brain. Please note the usage of words n the underlying meaning, mind is for “feeling” the humour :o), n brain is an organ for thinking, which you would ideally prefer not to do in this movie :o)

Just like that

Has been a while
since i heard that melodious voice

The voice which makes my heart skip a beat
And break into a melody of its own

A melody so happy,
a melody so melancholy...

But still my compostion :o)

Movie Review - Fanaa

Now my movie reviews are not the normal reviews. They have no structure. Hence dont expect one. Neither would they cover the whole movie. Only parts i want to talk bout :o) (u see my post my rulz)

Ok. So i saw Fanaa the other day. Had wanted to see it for a long time. I must say was a disappointment. In the first half, Kajol who is a blind girl from Kashmir goes with her college group to perform on Republic day. There Amir Khan is the guide. From day one, he acts fresh with her, holding her hand etc etc and she just smiles. Now isnt it a bit too much? Yaar tum kisi ko jaante bhi nahi, dekha bhi nahi, aur pehle hi din haath pakad raha hai aur tum muskura rahi ho? Not only her, her who group is fine with it.
Neway, she fall in love ie she falls in love and he realizes later that he loves her. They sleep once. Then he takes her to the doctor, and in one day she has an operation and she is fine ie can see. Her parents come to get her married away to Amir khan (neither them nor their daughter has seen the guy or know nething bout him). Her mother tells her on the phone that if she feels its love then she is right (come on how can u know u r in love in one day). Neway there is a bomb blast in delhi and amir khan is supposed to have died in that (or so kajol n family beleive).

But Amir Khan is the master mind behind the bomb blast. He is a high profile terrorist who wants independence of kashmir from india and from pakistan (new one isnt it :o)).
His terrorist group gets hold of a nuclear missile and in the mission to get the trigger he is injured (right now he is disguised as an indian army officer whom no one knows by face in the batallion :o)). He is injured in retreiving the trigger. He ends up in Kajol's house. Again love erupts in their hearts. But he ends up killing her father n uncle. Oh forgot he has a son also (remember they had slept one night together). Finally Kajol kills him for the benefit of mankind.
Story over.

I didnt dislike the movie coz the fact that i sat thru the whole movie is proof enough for this (i remember i had finished "mujhse dosti karoge" or some movie in which hrithik rani n kareena were there in less than half n hour, thanks to the windows media player's scroll bar where u can forward to whatever limit u want :o)). But it definitely didnt stand up the expectations one would have from an Amir Khan-Kajol starrer.

Am Back

Back in college.
Home stay was uneventful in the sense that again the absence of anything concrete to do drove me to boredom n restlessness :o)
But then was eventful in the sense got an operation done (for the korn with 5-6 stitches) and got glasses also.
Was on rest for a long time (read 5 days) n then finally went out (to smoke :o)). Last day whole family went to brahmaputra jungle resort. Great place. One can trek, ride on elephant and/or ponies, rock climbing, boating etc etc. Nice place. Really reasonable price (except the food :o)). Just that i could not do any of it :o(
But then i know where to go next time i go home :o)
Have many posts to write. Will write them slowly :o)
Right now, pet puja time.
Also new term starting tomoro. Got books today.
Adios
