Forget 48 hrs, it reached me after 144 hrs... Now thats a bit too much! Wait wait the misery does not end here. When u try to renew ur account, the pin no is faulty...Phbbt! Seriously I have lost the patience now. Trying my level best. I dunno when i will b able to login now. Tired of complaining again again!!! Grrrrrrrrr!

Hmmm... not fair!!! Mebbe I m not good enuf... Mebbe I need to work harder... but how much??? Thats my question

First gear is always difficult...

It has been 15 days since I am learning how to drive, but how much ever I try I cant possibly get it right. The most difficult part is getting started with the first gear. Initially I did not know at what point to hold the clutch and at what time to release it. I used to curse the makers for putting that clutch there. A car only with the brakes and accelerator would be just fine. But alas!!! Things don't function as we want them to. They often change our mode of functioning. And as it is said, 'No matter what you do taking the first step towards anything is going to be difficult.' This might explain why the first gear is not so easy as it seems. The key lies in never giving up or getting deterred inspite of the repeated setbacks. Just keep going and counter all the hindrances with the same zest and enthusiasm as you had for the first obstacle and one day you will sail smoothly.

Ok!!!Enough of pravachan!
I hope I sail smoothly...(i mean) ride safely. Actually I should! There is no charm or thrill in doing things if they are easy.

Where dogs piss, people find the same place to kiss???

eeeeeeeeeeks!!!
I had been to this place called upwan lake wid 2 of my friends for a walk and we could see only 3 things.
First... the lake which was heavily polluted wid all sorts of kachra.
Second...dogs pissing under the tree.
And third... Love birds sitting under the trees(the same ones which i assume had been visited by dogs earlier) and getting cozy wid each other.

heeeheeeheeeheee! thats when we came up wid the one liner... Where dogs piss, ppl find the same place to kiss!

Gali, Gali, Deepawali aai re...

Here comes the most awaited festival of the year...Diwali. Diwali along with it brings loads of happiness and prosperity. People forget their egos and exchange sweets and delicacies. Doorsteps are decorated with rangoli and you can see the auspicious diya everywhere(as Diwali rightly means a row of lights). But one thing I don't really like about the festival is crackers. They pollute the atmosphere and are very harmful. How many of us actually know that the cracker industry employs small children. These children then develop skin ailments and even tuberculosis in worst cases. Yet we the privileged ones anxiously wait everywhere to burst these crackers. Anyways some people might think that I am being pathetically senti. But thats Indian mentality, isn't it? Having fun at the cost of others!

Anyways... Wishing my near and dear ones a happy and prosperous diwali!

My nose hurts, but does not bleed...

Ouchhh! Get your nose pierced and u would know! It is quite painful when that nose ring is inserted through your skin into your nose. People watchimg me thought i would cry in pain, but hey... Sharvari is a strong girl. she does not cry so easily. Tears did roll down my cheeks when it was beong done. But thats all! No screaming... No crying... Hehehehe!
It is painful and it still hurts. I Have almost turned nauseatic towards the smell of coconut oil after applying it around my nose for days.
Anyways! It is worth the trouble! Thats all I can say...

Jab se tere Naina...

Ahhh!!! Ranbir Kapoor... The new kid on the block... Quite an hottie!!!

Nasheebach pandu tar konashi konashi mhanun bhandu!

Just a few questions...
They say,"Truth always triumphs." Does it really? If it does, then why do dishonest people succeed?
They say,"The fruits of hardwork are sweet." Yeah! Yeah! By the time we taste the fruits of hardwork, we have already gulped down the sourness of life.
They say,"Do your best and leave the rest to God." If so, why do we always have to struggle even after working hard?
Now my final question...
Who are these 'they' who have put forward so many things, which can be easily contradicted?

Who cares?

Kareena ditched Shaheed... ok fine, then?
Rakhee Sawant was once married... oooook, then?
Who cares!!!
We say, "Who cares? What do I got to do with it?" Yet we all like fools open the entertainment section first when we open the newspaper... why?
Are we really interested in such type of news? Or is it due to the media hype, we quite unknowingly open this section?

Tension, Tension... 15rupiyya

For the first time I heard this, I did not believe my ears. Everyone wants to get rid of our tensions. But selling tension? Who would want to buy tension? Can tension be easily transferred from one person to another? Can one get rid of one's tensions and worries permanently? Is it so easy?
Questions! Questions! and only Questions! My head had already begun spinning. Then I strained my ears and looked in the direction of the sound.It was a rickshawwala calling for passengers going towards station. He meant to say station but was pronouncing it as tension. I laughed at my own flight of imagination and walked ahead... But this is part of life, isn't it? The opposite person wants to say something and u understand something else... Hmmm!!!

How much of fiction!

On one sunday morning u pick up the newspaper and read on the front page,' Potter Principal is Gay'... And you wonder,"Huh! Whats that got to do with news?" Yeah Yeah! Today anything and everything can make news. The author of the series even goes on to explain why the character is so. Not that I have a deep grudge against the author, but I m amused about the amount of speculation that goes in the sexual orientation of a fiction character!
Ofcourse hats off to the creativity of the author! She really knows how to bring her characters alive...

Tutoring your younger sibbling!

Well guys... If u are done with your exams and nothing substantial to do and your brother's exam is still pending, tutoring him is an option.(Dicey one tho!)
The pre-requisits required:-

1. You have to be patient... dats the key coz the doubts dat come ur way! OMG!
2. You have to be smart. (ofcourse u cant be his teacher if u r dumb-headed)
3. You have to be a taskmaster.(esp when ur brother is lazy)
4. You have to be prepared for one hell of an experience.

All in all the experience is good for the fact the amount of faith and trust your sibbling puts in you and nothing can beat the happiness you derive from his success!

Mere dozen bhar usool!!!

I m being told to shed my inhibitions and conceptions... Inhibitions yes... they have been done away wid long back... Conceptions as in mere so called dozen bhar usool... nah!!! It makes me what I m today... If I change my whole conception of myself will change and along with that many things. Conceptions are not bad as long as they are not preceptions. And there is something that I owe to my so called usools and that is my life. They keep me going no matter how difficult the circumstances are. They make me feel safe. In their presence I feel I m not going to falter or go wrong. They equip me to think practically.
Hell!!! Not that I really need to explain all this... Whatever!!! People love me the way I am.

Freedom leads to Boredom

Woooo!!! Writing a blog after months now... Finally! Exams over... yeah baby!!! Done with german... and now what? Free bird??? In a way yes... I can spend the whole day sleeping, watching TVand blah blah... How much can u laze around? Especially when u are used to running around here and there. People tell me to take it easy. Cut down on my activities. But thats the way I m... A Busy Bee...
U must be thinking... she can anyway chill out wid friends... Well, pause there! I tell u, in certain cases one cannot, esp when your friends are doing CA( ARghhhh!!!)

It is pink pyajamas flying high at the red fort, now!

Finally we got our first lady president, after 60 years of Independence... Sad!!! We never had a lady prez earlier. Anyways, better late then never!!! Now we have a women who will be the commander-in-chief of the army, navy and air-force. lolzzz. Women were never allowed to hold higher posts in the army, navy and air-force!!! And looking at the recent scenario where Kiran Bedi was denied the delhi chief post, it wont change so soon...I hope our "Rajyaadhyaksha" (dats wat she will be addressed as) Mrs Pratibha Patil, will change it...
I m happy abt all this; but what worries me the most that Prathibha Patil might just turn out to be merely a nodding automation.
It was sad to see Prez Kalam leave. He really raised the bar of Indian Presidents. The nations loss is the gain of a few college students, whom Prez Kalam is going to teach... I know he is no more the President of The Indian Sovereign... but he is still the People's President...

FIRST DAY OF SYBCOM!

Finally 15th of june, 2007 has gone by... and Sharvari had her first day in SY
Well how was it???
Errrrrrrr!!! Good in way! And bad too!
Sharvari started early in the morning at 6am... Reached matunga at 7:15... Saw Nirmohi( dats my best friend, for ppl who dunno) after ages... When we went to check our roll nos and time table, we found out, that the first lecture was free... Whoaaa!!! What a way to start a new year... a free lecture!!! Well teachers came and went... And Yeah!!! That Gujju(Vice-Principal) is going to teach us again this year... No no! Not EVS but a fantastic subject called FC; a subject which contains topics like emergence a science, discovery of wheel, blah, blah blah! And yes how could I forget! It also contains topics like Biotecnology, Laser technology, Atomic energy, etc and also contains contribution of various Indian scientists(excluding Dr. A.P.J.Kalam)... Silly me! Till date I was thinking, my stream was COMMERCE!!!

TECHNIK-Ein Segen oder Fluch?

Wer hätte sich vorgestellt, dass ein tag käme, wenn man wie ein Vogel fliegen könnte oder die Erde vom Weltraum schauen könnte? Dank der Technik sind viele menschliche Träume in Erfüllung gegangen. In den letzten Jahren hat die Welt Zeugnis über verschiedene außerodentliche Erfindungen.
Es ist allgemein bekannt dass, die Technik derMenscheit einen großen Dienst, besonderes Medizin. Die arztliche Wissenschaft hat sich entwickelt. Es besteht einen Hoffnungsstrahl für die unheilbaren Patienten. Technik spielt eine große Rolle in der Ausrottung ger Epidemien.
Nicht nur in der Medizin sondern in jede Sphäre unsere Lebens durchdringt die Technik. Die Industrierevolution war ein Katalysator für die Fortschritt der Technik. Sie hat unser tägliches Leben erleichtert. Zurzeit können wir uns das Leben ohne eine Waschmachine, einen Computer, Fernseher oder Staubsauger einfach nicht vorstellen. Die Waren werden im Massenmengen und im Nu produziert. Darum kosten sie günstig. Eine Welt ohne Grenzen ist jetzt eine Realität, wo alle Leute zugänglich geworden sind. Per Mausklick steht die weltweite Infomationen augenblicklich zur Verfügung. In den Schulen und Universitäten auch ist die technik behilflich, womit die Studenten noch besser und schneller lernen können. Man muss auch nicht vergessen, dass die Technik viele Wunder in der Landwirtschaft gewirkt hat.
Jede Münze hat zwei Seiten. Technik ist ein zwei schneidiges Schwert. An sich ist die Technik weder ein Segen noch ein Fluch. Alles hängt von der Benutzung ab. Die Technik schöpft, aber sie zestört auch. Wer könnte das wahllose Gemetzel vergessen, das in Hiroshima und Nagasaki passiert ist? Es ist bedauerlich, dass die besten wissenschaftlichen Gehirne der Welt miteinander in Wettstreit liegen. Industrialle Entwicklungen hat sich so verschelchtert, dass veile Arten von Tieren und Baümen laufen die Gefahr, total auszusterben. Die Entwaldung, globale Erwärmung, Wetterschwankung sind Nebenwirkungen von der Technik. Das größte Wunder der zwanzigsten Jahrhundert, nämlich der Computer, hat eine Schattenseite: Der Computer kann psysich abhängig machen. Wissenschaftler forschen an neuen Krankheitsbildern, ählich dem Alkoholismus und Spielsucht.
Vielleicht versucht man durch diese technische Entwicklung lungen Gott zu spielen. Aber man sollte nie vergessen, er eigentlich die Macht besizt- die Natur. Immer wieder wird es bewiesen das Natur kontrolliert alles.
Damit wir die positiven Wirkungen die Vorteile der technischen Entwicklungen genießen können, ist es ein Mus, dass wir der technik Grenzen setzen und selbst verantwortungsbewusster und reifer werden... ABER SIND WIR DAZU BEREIT?

Think abt it!!!

What is more important in a life of an 18 year old?
LOVE or CAREER?
I always have thought that career is more important in a life a student. There are so many untread and seemingly green pastures one can see at this age. There is so much to explore and enjoy. And in todays cut-throat competition u need to be the best to survive.... And when there is so much to do, when does one have time for this going around stuff, which we today term as love... Is it love or mere infactuations? Do these relationships last long? What is the right time for all this? I have always believed, that once you hav a good career, everything else follows...
What's the validity of my last statement???
