That day

Hi
I am back posting. It was last sunday, 8th of november. I had to take a test in CBS so I started at about 8 from college and reached the place in time. Having done it quite well I decided to take a break. Right from the school days I have always enjoyed roaming around Trichy, especially alone. So I thought of trying it once again. I had to go to Thillai Nagar to find a place to fill Bagrat's cartridge so I decided to start with Thillai Nagar. I got into a bus to chatram via thillai. It was cloudy and cool but there was no rain which was encouraging. I got down at 12th cross and started walking the entire stretch of thillai nagar main road. I stopped here and thither to enquire about the cartridge shops and took a pitstop at the 24hour coffee shop. The hot coffee was great given the weather condition and the ambience. Being a sunday almost all shops were closed on a holiday so I had to give up the quest for the cartridge. I then walked all the way to singarthope, super bazaar, main guard gate and then decided to visit all temples in the vicinity. I ended the campaign with the temple near chatram. It was a great feeling to enjoy lonliness in a cool weather, wandering in familiar places. Yes I miss the days I spent in Trichy, the long walks, the unplanned roam around, trips to unknown destinations... That day was really a good day...
:) cya soon.. Take Care

Of prejudice.....

It was the usual sunday evening when I got ready to leave to college. The sky was getting dismal about the thirst of the earth and started getting dark. I got my bag pack ready and made the usual check of usual things I carry. Suddenly mom reproved me of the buses being full and occupied on the occasion of some special auspicion and asked me to take a town/mini bus to bus stand. I was prejudiced. Yet i went to the bus stop with a dilemma of staying prejudiced or not. As usual it was quite a wait. Then came the first bus and it was full. More importantly i could see a couple of town buses to bus stand in the opposite direction. I was tempted but still considered the transit time to and from the bus stand and hoped to get a less crowded bus. But the waiting time was looming and so did my prejudice's impact. So when i spotted the next town bus i ran across the road and got into it. It was empty and I settled myself in a seat. I was still fighting the prejudice and was watching the opposite direction. A couple of buses indicated my mom's guess to be valid but came the next one which was quite empty. So I again started fighting the prejudice and was thinking about what if I could have waited more. But suddenly I realized that it was indeed a right choice to get into this bus as it was raining heavily outside and that there is no shelter in our bus stop. Then my thoughts drifted into politics, how the shelter was removed recently and new buildings are coming up instead, the local politicians and so on. I was thinking about the recent dispute over the building of library in the play ground near my house and my opinions on it. But then suddenly i realized that the bus has entered the bus stand and it is raining heavily outside and that I should get into a bus and seat myself in spite of the potential crowd(I was still prejudiced :) ). Generally I dont get myself into prejudice but on this occasion I fell into and it did help :)

Until next, take care Seeya :)

Playing it Hard and Fair....

Hi
Life as always is very challenging demanding hard work, patience and persistence. Being in a place like NIT there is always a struggle for sustaining your individuality and not getting lost in the crowd. I had always waged this battle to hold on to the values and virtues i had learnt right through my life and it is sometimes very cacophonous to know in the quest for outsmarting the stiff competition and urge for individual aspirations people indeed become selfish and snooty. I am not sure if anybody can be right or wrong when you talk about virtues but still I always felt an empathy for others and tried to be diplomatic and tried to accommodate everyone's outcome to be good in a strained situation and always advocated transparency and open-healthy competition. But as I observed the reactions of other people around in a similar scenario is totally different. People tend to be selfish enough to blindly scorn others and think only about their good and the slang says it to be "RG" (Relative Grading it seems). I really don't want to comment about their views or opinions and not preaching them too but I tend to get irritated when they preach me to leave my values and take the path of being selfish. I always hear "there is nothing wrong in being selfish in this, in that etc." No I dont believe in being selfish in anything. Of course there is a difference between "living for others" and "considering others also". I dont mean to fall into abnegating yourself or your ideas or your gains, i just mean to think about others and try not hurting or create trouble for them. I like playing hard and fair and i wish there is transparency so that everyone gets to know and the best gets it rather than the one who knows survives. When everyone tries to beat others to reach the top which is relative, they always forget that the MAXIMUM is always absolute and has nothing to do with others anyway.

PS: This post is not meant to teach or preach. It is just a way to express my opinion about being open,sharing information and being true to yourself and your inner conscience and still strive to excell become the best.

See You soon :) Take care :)

These days...

Hi everyone
Life ,for a change, seems beutiful these days. It was indeed a tough time last 2 years when i learnt a lot in life rather than the rest of it. And now i can deem with assertion that life is indeed a beautiful ride. Its like sliding down-hill in paths that are always unpredictable and you find it smooth,rough,hard,get beaten up, a sudden rise in the air and all but finally its the entire journey that is beautiful in its complexity, uniqueness and lull. Life is a long way to go and the words "experience is the best teacher" means a lot more now. OK, now, I am still in holidays. I had been to Indore for project and the work was successfully done, mission accomplished and i am back home. Though i always considered India to be same everywhere I just felt it to be otherwise during my stay there. It was indeed a different experience to be in a place where you don't get a word of what people talk normally. May be I should learn Hindi soon. Nevertheless i met new people, learnt new things and over all it was good and even better to be back home down south. I shall post soon until then take care....

I am back!!!

Hi all

I am back after sometime. It was the busiest semester I ever had and it’s over and here I am into the holidays. I started with the on going project and it took some shape at last and left the remaining for next sem. I shall be leaving to Indore soon for a project and shall be back In mid June... Life is very uneventful these days with scorching heat and the occasional rainfall and cloud cover. The IPL is about to see the end of its second season and this time around it was not as exciting as the previous season, honestly. For a change I stopped being neutral and support CSK this time. I hope they win the semi tonight and get to the final and win it too. There is no harm with hope. My laptop has gone down with a problem in display. A white screen flashed when I switched it ON and it became finer lines and then merged to form white again. I have given it for mending it and I badly miss it :(. Its been my closest companion ever since it’s arrival. It was a nice semester as I turned social , at least a bit and started moving in a group but yet I am being the least talking member of it. Hope I come out of the way and be more interactive. I wanted to post something today and that’s how this post came out, I would back soon… cya :)
