One month blog!

Its been exactly one month since I last blogged...not that i had nothing to write about...but i just thought what it would be like to put a whole months thoughts into one single post...so..yeah...this post might come across as a bit distorted...irrelevant situations put together maybe...

This month has been good...and a lot of memories created which will last for long...

I dont understand why they have internal exams in MBA....everything is just a formality...and the marks are favoured...on the basis of where you rank in the books of the professors...
MBA is not about marks...not about theory...not about how good you wrote an answer..and if they do realise this...and why dont they do something about it!
A serious pattern change i say...no exams plzz...
I look at the 74% i scored...and it just doesnt mean anything to me...primarily coz i know i havnt taken much efforts to get...
but hey...im not complaining...whatever more you get is yours to keep right! ;-)

The exams came and went really fast...and somewhere i think everyone in the class knew this was an unofficial end to MBA...the last sem is just a formality really...hardly matters...
I havent really attached myself to MBA...so its a serious doubt if i will miss the place...the course...the people...?
Maybe a few people...i really dont know...

Had taken a break to Goa with a few friends some days ago....somewhere needed to be away for a while...
As amazing as the time spent was...it gave me a chance to actually relaise what i have always wanted...people i would like to be around...people i miss...and who really matter to me...

I think the major problem in your life is that there are certain things which you would like to avoid and get away from...and then there are those certain things which you want to keep close but cant for some unknown reason...the essence of life i think...is to blend these two things...
Being where YOU want to be...and what YOU want to do...rather than to bother about how these things (which hardly matter anyways!) will impact your life...
Live in a way that will impact situations around instead...create a world for yourself rather than trying to everytime adjust yourself to something that doesnt seem like a place you should be at...


Not every time in an interview does the Interviewer say this to you...
"You know apart from the profile we are looking for....whatever be the result of this interview...i would first like to compliment you and your parents for the values they have brought you up with..."

That felt really nicee...Called up my Mom and Dad and told them...somewhere...i am glad i could make them proud somehow...
That day was I think the start of a new positive stride in my life...

The way I see it...If i have not done anything wrong till now...and if i have been true...Nothing bad can happen...eventually...everything will be alright...and that feeling hasnt gone since that day...that smile hasnt gone since that day...
You fret about the past...about things that shouldnt have happened....but its nice to face the future with that smile on the face...

Me and a friend were having this conversation about how people should keep things the way they are...and not spoil the relationship that you share with the person at any cost..
like..If you are a friend...keep being a friend...dont spoil it by saying you are in love with that person...it will just make things uncomfortable...and eventually will lead to a break in the friendship because things just got irritating for the person...too much than he/she could take...
I dont completely agree to that...i mean...if that is what is to be done...how else will commitments be formed...Somewhere...when people meet...you always know what kind of relationship you want with that person...denying it...and avoiding it is just foolish and unfair i think...
And if it really makes things uncomfortable...the freindship/relationship was never meant to be...

I was thinking about all the people i know in and around me...and what they mean to be..and i was surprised about how I really feel for some people now...some relationships in life change...but in some cases...the core always remains...no matter what...and it happens naturally...

You need to laugh more. Life is filled with too many problems, to not laugh every day. ... We need to have a sense of humor going into this because it's too tough without it.
Coz sometimes...even though you know how its gonna end...doesnt mean you cant enjoy the ride...

I am loving the month so far...more things to write about...in the posts to come...

SIng Along...its the RIGHT air...

It happens...it always does...
Occasionally....you always are hit by this breeze of positive notes of music in the air...Its as if the Gods of Nature are singing to you...

Try this sometime...Hook on to your ipods/music players while walking on the road...and tune into your favorite song of the day...
"Tu sabbr toh kar mere yaar
zara saans to leh dildar
chal fikrr nu goli maar
yaar hain din jindadi de chaar...
haule haule ho jayega pyar chaleya
haule haule ho jayega pyar.."

It could be any song...a soothing tune...or a rocking filmy number...
Pump up to full volume...and just start concentrating on the lyrics...

You will immediately feel what exactly i am talking about...And it just changes your mood...
As if LIFE is calling you...showing you "the" reason to live...

Have ever wondered how sometimes the most shittiest of songs and lyrics sound amazingly well in situations...
How much ever i hate numbers which are a mere compilation of the regular gaalis and abuses...they are sometimes just what you need...

Entered Furtados office today...No idea why...and with no intentions what so ever....I never really understood why we did that...But i guess it was basically the love of Music and the idea of Marketing Music is something unique...


(Godd...that reminds me...I own a guitar...! Yipppiiiee!)







The point here isnt about bragging about my guitar though (yaa...i knw... THANK GOD!) its something different...






I am surprised by the comments and compliments i am getting from 3 people in the last one month... From people who have appreciated certain things about me and they are thankful that they did not miss knowing me.


But surprised is the word...I think it is very kind of them to say nice things...i dont know to what extent they mean it...but its nicee...to be valued sometimes...


What amazes me though...is that people say that i have opened up and taken efforts to go ahead and get to know people that i have stayed aloof for a while...
But come to think of it...Its really not me who has changed...because i know for sure that i havent taken any extra efforts to go out and talk to people...


It is THESE people who have actually come forward and known me...and i thank them for that...


"I do what i do...i am effortlessly genuine is whatever i do...be it HATE or CARE"

"___________"


I have always wondered how it would be like to go completly BLANK...
Empty as though you were just born...

You have sanity...you know what goes around...whats happening...but you dont know anyone around...bad people....good people..

I feel that somewhere....you will always find the right people even then...people who care for you...and whom you should be with...and the story begins again...

I feel that if its taking away all the bad memories...its well worth it...!

Lost all my memories a few days back....went completely BLANK...like an empty vessel...
I know no one...everything i did or wanted to do...was now a empty space...

Somewhere...at first i was lost...
The very thought of not being able to relate to your past anymore was a scary one..
WHAT AM I GOING TO DO?
WHO AM I??
WHERE AM I HEADED??

But then...i thought...do i really need the past??
Sure...it was really good at times...worth cherishing...the sole existence of LIFE is afterall in "living" these moments...
But then...if its gone...it can be made again...maybe it wont be the exact same thing...but it will be good none the less...

It is said that LIFE always gives you two choices at every point in life...the one you choose opens a chapter that decides your future...
I have now chosen to stop worrying about the past that is gone...and LIVE and face the times ahead...

So...

To my 160 GB Hard Disk that crashed last week...and to the 100 GB of memories...photos...projects...movies...and all that defines my past that it took away...i convey my final GOOD BYE!
It was nice knowing you...I SMILE and move ahead...
:-)


On other things...
I was telling this to a friend of mine the other day...I might have talked about it even in my blog a lot of times...
Somewhere....you always know about the person when you first meet him/her...whether you can really trust that person enough...if the person is worth it...if he is selfish and just going to use you....that is exactly how you form friends with people you become close to....distant...

YOU ALWAYS KNW IT AT THAT VERY FIRST MOMENT...!
The problem occurs because you either ignore that bad feeling...postponing to some other time...saying that you have to give people a chance....
And thats wen you get yourself into trouble!

I dont see why you are the ones who should decide on giving people a chance...you are not GOD!!

If people are bad...they are not goin to improve for you...they WILL fuck you anyways....!
Ahhhh....if only people could get this point....!

Love,Actually


"Whenever I get gloomy with the state of the world, I think about the arrivals gate at Heathrow Airport. General opinion's starting to make out that we live in a world of hatred and greed, but I don't see that. It seems to me that love is everywhere. Often it's not particularly dignified or newsworthy, but it's always there - fathers and sons, mothers and daughters, husbands and wives, boyfriends, girlfriends, old friends. When the planes hit the Twin Towers, as far as I know none of the phone calls from the people on board were messages of hate or revenge - they were all messages of love. If you look for it, I've got a sneaking suspision love actually is all around.

Waiting for Exams to get over...have a lot of things to update myself and this blog on...
Watching LOVE,ACTUALLY for tomorrows paper...LOL....i knw...Hard to digest that....but somewhere for Integrated Marketing Communication...i think this is all that will help!!!

Ahhhhh...I SIMPLY LOOOOVVVEE THIS MOVIE!!!
It can cheer me up any given day...any time...

What an IDEA...

I think the best thing a family teaches you is togetherness...
The festive season brings the "good" air around somehow...and the morning feels "just right" somehow...
You get this nice warm feeling inside...as if its a new life...a new beginning...
Like a fresh new plant...looking sky up...chasing its destiny....

Far away in the sunshine are my highest aspirations. I may not reach them, but I can look up and see the beauty, believe in them and try to follow where they lead...

I was thinking about why these festivals are celebrated...its a time for you to relax a bit....sit and look around...get back to old threads...friends and relatives...more than anything else...
Aaaahhh....and i am loving that feeling....

Noticed this thing the other day....


IDEA mobile launched itself in MUMBAI a few months back...and i spotted two of their campaign posters...both at extremes to each other...
First...i think the concept of you becoming a MUMBAIKAR just by buying an IDEA SIM itself  is hideously pathetic!!
Second...well...there is no need for a second...What were they thinking in the FIRST place!!!
LOL

The other campaign was about having a safe MUMBAI...they providing a HELPLINE number for Train suspected baggages and rescue work...
As if the present numbers dont provide service or they dont work!
HUH???
Seriously...WHAT WERE THEY THINKING???

Actually...after trying to really "think" what they were thinking (omg....so much thinking went into this post! LOLzz) I came to a conclusion that the first "MUMBAIKAR" campaign was to target all the outsiders who have settled in mumbai cashing in on the hue and cry created by Raj Thackerey and  the other POLICE HELPLINE campaign is cleverly targeted at the actual mumbai residents showing how much IDEA is concerned about their safety...
Goddd...Companies will do ANYTHING for business these days!!

What an IDEA???

I wonder why he bloody does it...I dont want the freakin pain...
Somebody just shoot me in the head instead!!

impluse...b'day and what matters...

"Life seemed to be an educator's practical joke in which you spent the first half learning...
 and the second half learning that everything you learned in the first half was wrong!"
Done with the presentation finally...goddd...i soo bored of these things now!! 
It just seems the pace of life has slowed down somewhere...i feel the need to feel the rush of blood in my body....experience a sudden thrill...of adventure...love...surprise....something!

Sudden flashes of memories grip me...the good times...i am missing a lot of good times spent...i soo wish i could celebrate her b'day today...
Stupid job responsibilties...!!! why does she have to work always mann...give her a break people!! 
Anyways...like always...there will be a time well spent later...

I realise what was said today in the class was true...there is a definite lack of professionalism with people around....they are still in their college days...showing off innocence as if it was all that is to life...They need to live the right way...and soon...else the world is waiting to pounce upon...
I dont get it..its not that everything i say is perfect or that i know better...but still...there needs a change to be imbibed...even in me at some level...

Recession at its full swing btw...people in college are NOW realising something needs to be done...When i was shouting 3 months back...warning people abt the times ahead...that time all had gone deaf i think!
And if people still see that there is a ray of hope in this...and that things will improve all of a sudden...well...i dunno what to tell them...Please remain in your sweet dreamland...and i hope things work for you...
May be i am wrong...May be i am the one overreacting...but from what i read and understand..its better to be safe than sorry...

I dont think any of this matter though...who will ever talk about college when we are finally out...10-15 days maybe...one month max...after that...change awaits...a new life awaits....a new role...
So better make the most of it while it lasts....good or bad for that matter...
As one of my friend says...
"JUST FCKIN "BE" MANN! If people say you have attitude and that you are wrong in what in do or say...THEY ARE JUST JEALOUS! some day evryone will face consequences right...wats your problem then?"
LOLzz
Nice thoery i say....

I see life...and i die...


"Your life can change in an instant...that instant can last forever.."


I have to tell you...NO movie has gripped me sooo much till date...i simply loved it!
I stayed NUMB for 5 mins...
Its about a choice of life between two friends...only one lives....
I wonder how many people these days will give up their life to keep their best friend alive...

Death is a wierd concept...
They say that when you die...you whole life just flashes in front of your eyes...
I always thought it would be the past...what my life has been...and what has happened...some things i will regret....some...i cherished all the time i was alive...
But somewhere...what if your future also appears before u...what you would have been if you continued to live...
After all...everything i believe is a game of choices...its all written somewhere...you just select the different screenplays based on your choices...

Having fun these days...it good to know that there are people who care...and there are people whom you care for...and most importantly...who vlaue it...
I always wonder though....If things were not this way....WHAT WOULD BE DIFFERENT...

May be something else...something better...or worse...but then...WHY this and not something else??

"You know what....you will make a very good husband Prasad"
Hmm....not the first time i heard that statement...but i wonder why people keep sayin that...Coz i know that i am definitely NOT the best guy to be around with...
Its also freaky at times....coz then you start feeling ther is seriously somethin wrong with you!

Anyways...onto other things...

Ahhhh...i sooo feel like being in LOOOOOOVVEEEEE....
Right now though...Katrina is tooo busy to accept my proposal...
So i guess...that will just have to wait....
But  wonder....why does she hav to be sooo freakin cuuutee mannn!!!


i think i should start listening to Soniya...she always has a solution for everythin..the problem is that how much ever she tries...i never listen to her!!!
LOL
(Sorry gal...i knw u r rite...but hey...i just lovee to fall into trouble don i ??? )
Everytime i feel i should go by her way...arrgghhh...i always end up doin things differently...
This is a painting she had made...i simply love it...


Just got this from Sanjai...funny how small things can bring a smile on your face...
just came across a funny thing
it happened 2 yrs back
a frnd of mine went to social security application centre
usne uska birth year yede ne 2006 dala
2006
so the lady at the counter smiled n told him...u are a 6 month old cute baby
this guy just heard cute .....and said Thankyou in return
:-)

"Excellent...Superrrbb...Mail this to me...Ill see if i can publish it somewhere..."
"Excellent Analysis of Gazzprom"

Words i was waiting to here for long...

There is definitely something about this Professor...His words mean a lot to all of us in class...each and every comment he makes...
I dont know what it is about him...his teaching....or his personality...but it is definitely not just because we simply adore him...that he is given so much importance and respect...
There is something about this teacher...very few people in your life can leave such engraved impact on you...
One impact you cant forget...

You know....it is said...you should never let go of the people who leave a staunch impact on you...good or bad...better or worse...
Simply because...First...there are FEW such people...Second..if they are creating the effect that might alter your life....they definitely have some power...a power you have to recognize...
This power...must be stayed away from always in case of the bad...and valued always in case of the good done..but you should never let it go...simply because...then...when it hits you next time...you will not know what to do!

Talking about impacts...
Heard this thing about the good and the evil the other day...
It is said that a theory exists in LIFE....
The good people on this planet...are meant to do only good and they keep doing good...Similarly...the bad ones are meant to commit bad...and they keep doing it...
The idea lies in how effectively they do their job...

So...when at times you wonder why the people who are doing evil dont get hurt...just think...that they are doing their job...that is how it is...and that they will never be affected...simply because they r efficient at what they are MEANT to do!

LOL
That way....atleast you wont get affected...

"Aankhon mein jiske
Koi to khwaab hai
Khush hai wohi jo
Thoda betaab hai

Zindagi mein koi
Arzoo kijiye
Phir Dekhiye..."

Tu hii toh merii dost he....

Its been long since i last posted...So a lot of things to be written....and i don know exactly where to start...

Was listening to the music of  Yuvvraaj...it feels like being in love...if the pure feeling that you get when you listen to the tune is what is like "being in love" that is...


I wonder sometimes....Why do i go mellow when i see Katrina Kaif these days...just a passing crush...or LOVE in the making...
aaaaahhh!!
:-)

Have you ever had that feeling sometime...of telling the person exactly how you feel...and then backing off coz it might just screw things up...or if not screw it...just...change certain things...
How you wish at these times that life was perfect...and things went your way...!!

I cant remember how many times i have thought of tellin a person..."Look...this is what you mean to me...!! "
But as they say....some things are better left unsaid...and some relationships...better left the way they are...Its good the way it is...why spoil it...

In life...you will always care for some people...maybe even love some people...you wish good for them...but the risk of letting go what you have is not worth telling them exactly how you feel...
So...as they say....JUST LET IT BE!!
Smile...and move on....

I have handled a lot of people and their situations till now...somewhere....now...i am at a stage where things are just too much to giv a thought to...
There are 3 people i know...close to me..and attached in some way or other...
Confused,hurt,helpless individuals...
They are caught in a mess they created...with surprisingly NO ONE being wrong in a way...!
Not that i am looking for a solution here...but somewhere what bothers me most is that there is no solution to it...
Arrggghh...Life...!

I sometimes feel the need to be held...to be told what is to be done next....somewhere coz i am tired of making decisions...
I guess everyone goes thru this phase...

Waiting for things to happen...missing a lota ppl....remembering the good times...and yes....most importantly...trying to maintain that SMILE on the face...
