3 idiots

Forewarning:- By any chance if you haven't watched this movies then stop here itself. There might be some spoiler. But if you are a regular HINDI movie goer, I wouldn't call that as suspense anyways.

3 Idiots? That's just for the the name sake. Reality is something different. But why why why? Why this happens only in movies? Hero wins all as usual and hero is the best of lot. Now coming to few points about movie and loopholes:-

1) Ground work about the engineering could have been done at higher level. Movie forgot important fact that night before the exam is most sacred of all your semester night. If you do not study on this night, no one can save you from failing. In engineering terminology, the amount you devoted a night before the exam is directly proportional to the marks which you will obtain. With threshold differing from person to person, for some its 1 am for some its 5 am. A night before exam in hospital not studying, you can pass but certainly not top until you are in the exception list. More about exceptions will come in point three.
2) No one join engineering thinking about insane ideas like knowledge and learning. Students are immature and their minds are not corrupted with words like Value and Learning. Everyone join it for job and recognition of degree. Leave the terms like value addition, learning etc for MBA aspirants and PHD Scholars.
3) Those who are topper are mostly non-fun kinda people who have a bypass for rule number 1. Because they have devoted all day and night to studies and preparing notes and have read the theory so many times that they can even teach their children after 30 years without looking at book, . And these noble souls are the one whose notes, oops xerox is going through hands of 99% to-be engineer. No offense meant to toppers. In fact everyone will praise you highly entire life for your notes which made those 99% lot getting engineering degree. You were like saints who never thought about wordly desire and gave life for the greater cause - well being of mankind, a philanthropist I should say.
4) Dare to give counter reply to your professor, you can be sure of one thing between two - egoistic, insane and ahole prof/lecture is highly pissed off and will either complain about you to Dean or will make every attempt to screw you while checking your exam papers. However good you are but you won't be topping like Rancho.
5) Names? My goodness, dude how did you came till this far. Children though less known for cruelty but are nonetheless most brutal at emotional level, names like Ranchor Das Chanchad will be hot cake. :D Forget about Schooling for a while engineering will definitely carry some funny name(and may be butt of all jokes) for you rather than being Rancho like some hot dude.
6) Taking cuts at your director, leave lecturer or even professor, but director?? and director needs reason to rusticate you out of college? And pressurize others to stand against you? Dude - day one, one Disco (Disciplinary Committee) And Day two, you will get lucky and OUT!!! Immediately Out of Hostel minimum and suspended from college. College prof takes pleasure in doing such things, one such example in my knowledge, merely for playing Holi(A festival) with no college property loss or physical or mental abuse to prof ,18 noble souls where rusticated from the hostel and suspended from the college for week along with fine. But again these are the things which makes the college life exciting and adventurous. Definitely after coming out not when in college and while passing through such mental trauma.
7) Committing suicide? That too for studies or year back? Cm'on I have seen people partying hard when they had year back and over it 17/18 arrears (fail grade) out of 19 subjects in year. No one commit suicide. Everyone is damn happy. But yeah after coming out engineers are the one who run through identity crisis and may think about suicide all the time. No one in sane mind would give so much importance to studies when in engineering college. Or may be people are camouflaging their suicide by reasons like not able to learn google wave.
8) Real time project? Which world are you leaving in? Are you sure you was talking about Indian engineering? No one works on new idea, they are left for masters degree holder or doctoral candidates. I have seen people taking fake report and fake presentation to get the final degree.
9) Well its not the case that engineering degree from low end college like my college was/is only like this. Even IIT's are like this. Please do not defend on the basis of ranking if it was comparable to IIT's or not . It would still be BS for me.
10) Aha forgot the most important thing, Doing such stunt in ragging? haha, one thing you can be sure of right away - you are not studying in this college for sure.
11) Director complained about the student's performance to his/her parent and talk harshly saying their ward will not get the degree because of poor performance and next day guy found dead as he committed suicide and still police is not arresting the director?Where is media? This is totally bad, you should show some reality in movie.
12) Beautiful girls in engineering college are like rare engineering concepts which will stick to your brain cells when professor is giving lecture, I mean near to nil(for god sake, do I need to tell it again and again). And they going for Chanchad? As in Ranchor Das Chanchad? That's complete insanity and height of fantasy. Girls do go after rich kids but atl east not Chanchad, or probably I am ill-informed. Hey, no offense meant to reader who is unfortunately Chanchad.or have best friend as Chanchad. Anyway, Some great writer had said, "What In Name" but unfortunately he added his signature as Shakespeare so that no one else can own it. hehe

This post was written so that people do not get wrong idea about engineering portrayed by 3 idiots. hehe. Well, I can write tons and tons of matter about engineering and its greatness no need to give proof about it. ;-)

Good movie, a must watch. Low comparing Amir's standard but still can be seen. Dialogs are good in fact would call the best, because even after watching it once, dialog would stick to your mind like mischievous engineering plan's. To end, go and see this movie, because baad mein sochoge ki, accha review the movie ka, hall mein lagi bhi thi, bus ticket black mein mil rahi thi, lekin fir bhi thodi si himmat karke thode aur rupye deta to ticket mil jaati aur movie dekh leta. (Translation, though will nto make much sense : Go and see the mvoie, because you may regret later that movie review was good, it was running as well in the cinema hall, tickets were being sold in double or triple cost, but if would have given some more money would have got the opportunity to watch the movie on big screen)

P.S. :- Its not easy degree but not tough as well. Anyways, engineers always work on the concept of Rockets. Do not start work until your ass is on fire. ;-)

P.P.S : - On serious note, if Aamir/Directors would have taken note of all 12 points and boring stuff about engineering, you wouldn't have had been watching this movie N'th time in same week.

P.P.P.S : - (Disclaimer)Whole post was written on lighter note, and shouldn't be taken seriously. If any of my comment hurt your emotions, please leave your comments in comments section I would edit that part.

P.P.P.P.S : - And here I make world record for my own blogs by posting post notes after post notes. And reason is, its tough to be in real world and have to write disclaimer to make people aware that I can make the change if they did not like anything (Only if ,you think I am trying to defame you).

2009

When the end of this year is fast approaching people have started thinking about the things which they did in last one year, so do I and this retrospection gave some astonishing revelation., not all is coming here.

This year was happening both at personal as well as professional front. This year there were many moment when I wanted to come to my blog and write something but somehow or other I failed to do it. And at the same time it happened first time since I started writing that, I wrote one post every month, though not useful sometimes. Loosing at SPJ call to winning new role in my job, Organized and stable in job to unorganized and screwed career plan, Feeling of standing nowhere to ecstasy of achieving something, loosing out contacts with old friends to making shallow attempt to make new friends ; all seems standing side by side and leave with a awkward sense of being lost. Though I was passionate about writing, but seems that is also dying slowly and now is struggling to write, not sure if I would be writing anymore including the gibberish stuff. One thing which was done consistently was nagging and the procrastinating attitude, which are the main cause for slow progress. Time demands a change, but being a neophobic it would be a tough call. But sooner or later have to go through it before I get caught by stagnancy.

Google Wave

My first impression about Google wave. Well it was supposed to come a month back ,time when I started using the wave but mostly laziness was putting it in 'things to do later' list.

- It is an attempt by Google to save their bandwidth and space requirement. So Google would be the one who would be highly profited by this entire business. Reason - ever wondered when you are sending mail(forwards) to group of friends how much space it takes at Google server? Well they all get a copy of the mail ,so if the mail size was somewhere around 500kb and if you sent it to 10 people then total Google space used was around 10*500kb + 1*500kb (10 for your friends Inbox and 1 for your sent item). And now top it up with another 500kb in your Inbox (obviously how would you forward a mail if it doesn't exist in your mailbox). Now the wave would be using only 500kb space and that's because when you receive a wave you just drag your friends name to the wave . This will eventually save A LOT of space for Google. And I am damn sure however big they are, they too have space constraints, and nothing could be better than wave to handle it.

- It is another attempt by Google to manipulate the way people think. As all the data is centrally stored you would immediately know if someone is manipulating your data or if someone is replying to you wave(I would say it as mail). Now comes the real fun. say you are typing something and your friends too would be seeing what you are typing at each and every key stroke. Again I am not talking about disabling the feature, else it would loose its charm. Now the fun is, other party would be able to see at every point what you are thinking, what you are changing after writing it and crap like this. Think about it, its like reading someone's mind. No proposal would go through wave because once you thought it and wrote it , no matter you edit it later but if the other party have seen it there is no going back. You would be screwed. People would be questioned, why did you disable this feature? Or why did you thought like that. haha. Pseudo couples would get more reason to fight as if existing reasons were less in this world.

- To use the smiley, translator, making wave public and things like this you have to use robots. Its wouldn't be easy for common people to understand the idiosyncrasy of wave. Though features are damn good but how you expect mass to get it. Even have seen techno-savvy people having trouble using the service right now. And tragic but funny - heard one news that someone committed suicide as he was not able to understand how Google wave works. No offense meant to his soul, but man!!! its insane to commit suicide for such silly reason, you could have written in suicide note about bad mess food, stupid college education system or even over stupid education system. And if that was not good he could have mentioned failure to get any failed reason. Crap.

- Google need to do a lot of work on bandwidth utilization, because it eats the bandwidth like hell. And when I am saying hell, it means definitely hell here. With my 6mbps speed it runs like a horse between formula racing cars. Think about India where the internet speed is called BROADBAND when it is 256kbps, which eventually gives a download speed of 32kbps. And anything above 256kbps is luxury and there is nothing above 2 mbps internet speed. You rnet would be screwed once you would be using the wave.

Over all its a good attempt to combine everything under a single window. Google is trying to win the market once again by doing all these tricks and that's the reason they came with this idea quickly in preview version only. And at the same time maintained the charm by making to it by invitation only. Those who started using Gmail since the initial days knows what I am talking. It was by invitation only at that time but it was beta version at least which devastated the yahoo mail completely by incorporating the chat and Google lab features with the mail. Wave too us e invitation but for a change this time it is preview version, God knows when they will actually come up with the beta version and when the full fledged version. One thing which they are loosing right now is the charm of their social networking site called Orkut, which has been taken over by Facebook now. I hope Google is not sitting silently over it and might be thinking something to win it back. May be Wave would do the magic. More to come on it soon.

P.S:- This post was in my draft since sometime and did not care to post it.

P.P.S. :- This is mostly my understanding after going through several document available on forums , if any of the reader have different thought please do post it in comment area.

Life's Ideology

I am not sure if the topic suits the body post but did not get anything better than that. This post is not written to hurt anyone's religious sentiments and post would be removed in case it is being asked unanimously. :-)

Suddenly why this topic came into my mind the reason was I had a discussion with a preacher who was talking on the good thing about his religion and it was good knowing about other religion. But in the end what left me in uneasy position was his question on my take on change in religion to his one. Though I gave some reason but guess real reason was left unsaid. But guess reason given was good enough though funny.

I have gone to few of the religious gathering and someway or other found them talking the same thing. Most of the preachers talk about following God,Allah, Bhagwan and their deity's saying and their holy books . And the funny part is in most of the cases it ends with discussion on life after death like Swarg and Narak in Hindu's, Haven and Hell in Christians & Jannat and Dozakh in Islam. What amuse me the way description about these places are given and life's definition. I didnot meet even a single preacher till now who gave importance to current life and told me to live it to full. All I heard was I have to be thankful to God(read deity of their religion from now on for word God) . And I should look forward for Haven (Read corresponding places for their religion ) and do good deeds and pray God, because life is very short and our 100 year life is just 2-3 minutes as per God's time. And life after death is infinite years of God time (think about it in our time and I suppose Avogadro number won't be able to define it). So whatever may be the religion round about things go in same fashion. And everyone defines the life after death as if the Haven exists is a concrete truth and over it the Haven is the place you need to be. If I go through various religion I see a myriads of religion and their corresponding hell and haven which make me think if these are different place or same. May be one is more affluent over another. ;-)

And irony is no one talk's about current life, rather than being a good citizen and a good person talk is given on what is best about their religion. I have a say over here - life which we are living right now should be the one which should be given utmost importance rather than giving importance to life after death, because no one have ever returned saying - Man!!! Its awesome out there, that's the place you should come man, this place sucks and things like this. So have party, enjoy life, be a good person. Rather then living under terror of Haven and Hell. And to be honest I believe its normal human nature to get bored with their current situation and place with time - for some its quick and for some its not so quick. And I don't think if the identity exists then the nature will not - it will be. So think about it, you are bored of Haven but you can't leave it and then you will realize - Sh*t I am screwed. So utilize this 2-3minutes as per God time in nice way so that it won't hurt you more when you are in Haven or Hell. ;-)

Now coming to reason for me not changing my religion - well I am Hindu and there are almost 0.33 billion (33 crore) Gods and Goddess - so I have opportunity at each point of my life to choose another God or Goddess if I get bored of one(though I pay a very little heed to it so chances are less).

And the reason which I did not speak was - I am a Hindu though do not as such follow it with GREAT attention, sometime gets frustrated with it and speaks bad about it. Never ever read about the religion, never participated in rituals and that too when I have so many opportunities to choose God's from. And definitely other God would help me through his/her sources to get into Haven or Hell. What will happen if I will change my religion to yours? I will say something after getting frustrated about it and there wouldn't be any other God to support and get me the esteemed position in God's nest. I suppose I will be screwed then. Bottom line is I do not care about life after death. And I am happily unhappy with my life and have no remorse. ;-)

Note:- I carry a very liberal attitude about religion and take the view that religion should not be something which would restrict you to some boundary, it should give you enough space for thinking, for doing work and other than normal social norms and one defined by law shouldn't take anything as sin. And holistically all religion have the same ideology.

P.S. - Again I was too lazy to check the grammar and spelling, if you find anything wrong then post it in comment area, I am not going to correct it anyways.

SpiderMan

All those who have seen the movie Spider Man surely know this dialog.. with great power come great responsibility but I am sure spider-man would have liked to say something more than that, but couldn't say to avoid the supercilious censor board. If he would have got the freedom he would definitely have said - Great power comes great responsibility and also loads of chances to get screwed topped with the bloody load of work and people expectation. Its tough to be a super hero.

Well well well... why did spider man came into my mind? Its a short and simple - Front Office SPOC in software industry and super hero are more or less comparable when you take the disadvantage part. Business expectation and work done by the back office. Covering the incomplete work of back office to business and patiently hearing the business is not easy. And why should you? Most of the time you will get escalations for which you shouldn't be called responsible. But NO - the Industry thinks differently. Here Business will escalate because the work is not as per there expectation and back office will sought why there is too much of work load, manager will sought on the escalations sent by business and leads will think there s no proper channeling of communication. At the end of the day everyone will be in peace except the poor FO-SPOC. After reaching this position, I realize its too easy to be a team member and too tough to be a lead, because you don't need to be worried much if you are a team member. You just have to manage yourself. But for lead other then managing himself s/he has to direct the whole team which is not a good experience if the team become in-cooperative or the business become stubborn. Team members can take leave any day can leave anytime, but the leads - poor leads, they can't take leaves without planning everything earlier and intimating all the parties involved. For coming late s/he need to drop mail. Well there are few lucky souls who enjoy in any role - and when I say enjoy it means those who do nothing and come to office just to complete the quorum.

Super heroes would be dead after one week of work in software industry if they have to go through the mental agony rather then the physical pain or if there villains would have had been a project manager asking them to review the code (which was written in worst possible mode) rather then creating nuisance by doing sci-fi act.

Note:- Above post doesn't have to do anything with my team. Everything was written on lighter note with no serious objections on anyone's activity.

P.S.:- Post looked incoherent while I was reviewing it, but did not made any changes as I was too lazy to make it.

P.P.S.:- Contrary to my expectation I am having tough time here with my role and place too. Guess both will take sometime to come to normal stage and are coming too. :-)

Summers

I never ever though that I will have a chilling Summer before coming to Belgium. Whoa!!! I am not sure how winters will be but definitely summers are not summers in Indian context, they should be called as Winters.

Contrary to the last post, I think Sun is definitely gonna be a important factor for deciding a day as good or bad. I shiver in this summer when the Sun don't show up for the day.

I feel in coming days I will start hating my job where I have to wake up early to reach office by 9 or people will start hating me for coming to office like I am still sleeping.

BTW one out of context text, I learnt how important the plastic money is, and how it makes people to spend more without giving any considerable thought.

- More boring posts to come

Richie Rich

I suppose Richie Rich will die out of frustration after seeing people around here(In Brussels). Now don't ask me who Richie Rich is, if you don't know than its awesome. BTW if not he, definitely I will soon and if not then Once I will be back in India, I will be called a hell of spendthrift.

- Taxi Drivers are so rich that they drive Mercedes which cost a whooping 40 Lakhs Rupees in Indian currency and you can see the car only in posh area with affluent people in India. And Taxi driver will definitely be dead next day with Car gone in parts across the globe if he is caught using Mercedes as a Taxi, and moreover why he will be a taxi driver if he have enough money to buy Mercedes. ;-)

- What a pity, Mercedes are used as a TAXI!!! India at the max if people will think they can take only Tata Indica and recently Logan as a Taxi.

-Finally I came to know what Burger Index is, you can definitely judge the spending power of people and even economy too on the basis of Burger cost. 7 Euro's for Burger!!! Think in Indian currency and you will die out of horror thinking to eat a 500Rs Burger on a road side shop(definitely I am not talking about 5 star hotels).

- Beggars? I am thinking if I should call the people who are asking as beggars here. It will be a dream come true for an Indian Beggar to get a Job as a beggar in Brussels. What a life!!! Even I think a mid-level s/w employee in Indian firm would like to have such a fantastic life of Beggars which are here. Have you ever seen the beggars who are sipping beers and having french fries asking for alms and that too in nice cloths? They made me think that if there is a PROFESSIONAL uniform for Beggars too. Come to Brussels you will see that. Even I envy them now, getting 40-50 euro daily(tax free) with french fries is not a bad job where I don't have to do anything ;-)

- On hearing that I am from India, first think they say is.. aaha!!! TajMahal, bloody hell!!! I have never seen real TajMahal and they are mentioning it as they are using it as their home and are acquainted well with it. But guess this is how people start the converstaion anywhere in the world. If you are within the boundary of the colony.. aaha!!! You are in that house, and then boundary of town comes with comment.. aaha!!! that colony? And like I stay in Bangalore and always used to get the comment on saying I am from Bihar... aaha!!! Lalu Parsad Yadav as if Lalu Yadav is her/his chum.. Guess - 'that house', 'that colony' and 'Lalu Parsad Yadav' are replaced by 'TajMahal' till the time I am here in Brussels!!! And to be honest - I just love it. ;-)

Well well well.. don't think that's the only thing I came here to see, but I am not writing any travelogue. So definitely not going to mention the places, its just the people and their behavior comes in my list for writing.

- More of funny comments to come, so keep reading!!! Will be back soon..

Note:- You may see grammatical mistake, spelling mistake here and there because I am not editing anything and posting whatever coming in my mind. So its kinda an unabridged version and you shouldn't complain but if its blunder do post it in comment area which will NOT be corrected definitely. ;-)

Great News for thieves

Few more thing:-

If you are interested in stealing motor parts then welcome to Belgium, you will get all design and make of car parked on road, pick whatever you like. I understand the only time ANY car have a home is only when they are in put up for sell(I mean in shop) or in manufacturing units. Else, starts from Mercedes, Hummer, Ferrari, SUV's name it and you will definitely get it parked on road openly all the time (including nights). In India if you leave expensive car outside the Garage, and you will not miss the talent of thieves I bet. That's called the guts to do adventurous thing. ;-)

Why people drink beer all the time in Belgium instead of water? Why shouldn't they - if you get beer, water, coke all @ 1euro, why one will drink water.Same like 'Super Nirma Advertisement during DD1 days' - jab kam dham mein wo mile to koi ye kyon le.. and mann gaye deepika jee... aapki parki nazar or belgian beer dono ko.. (translation won't make much sense to non-Hindi people or those who did not see the ad ever so not giving it, let me know if still look for it)

I never new that sunlight was so important in your life that the day become great or gloomy depending upon the sunlight. If its sunny - then you will see people with happy faces around saying what a beautiful day it is and when its cloudy or cold suddenly they will become sad and say its a bad day. Come to India or shall I say directly to Chennai? Yeah Chennai sounds better - come to Chennai and enjoy the GOOD days.. and I hope you will never be gloomy when you won't see the sun.

- Enough for today, more to come

Reached Belgium

My first trip on air craft and my first trip to any foreign country were supposedly had to come together, and I reached Belgium. Interesting experience. Will be coming with the experience soon. First expression of this place as below. Mostly coming with tidbits -

- Its wrong to say that people smoke here, here people breath smoke like we breath oxygen in India.
- People are friendly and helping, if you will ask for directions they will almost not leave you until you reach the destination skipping their important works.
- People don;t roam around much and very quite place.
-Evening comes around 9:30PM to 10PM(during summers, I mean now) and morning starts from 4 to 4:30AM, little weird when you compare with normal Indian schedule where evening starts from 6PM and morning from 6AM.


-more to come..

Google Tricks

One of the most amazing feature, simple but no one thought before. Enable this feature in your GMail if you think on some day(oops late night) you may send some REAL truth to your Boss or Friends (acquaintance) , either due to intoxication or due to frustrating events happening with you.


And it will save you from embarrassment later. But yeah dont enable this feature if you think you will propose through a mail either to your girlfriend or boyfriend late night after thinking pros and cons of your action. Because even though you are mentally aware but after solving these 5 questions, probably you may not send the message. ;-)

Perspective!!!

A short post after a long one,

IPL T20 reminded me of some dialog which we say while watching One day cricket matches.

"This player is just crap, playing as if he is playing test match" - This comment was for those cases where the player was playing with strike rate of some 50 or 60. And a player was called good if he is playing with strike rate of 80-90.

And similar comment came while watching a T20 match -

"This player is just crap, playing as if he is playing in One day" - and the good player of One day was not good enough from T20's perspective.

P.S.:- Celebrating 10k page hit for my blog page. :-)

Gandhi's Talisman

"I will give you a talisman. Whenever you are in doubt, or when the self becomes too much with you, apply the following test. Recall the face of the poorest and the weakest man [woman] whom you may have seen, and ask yourself, if the step you contemplate is going to be of any use to him [her]. Will he [she] gain anything by it? Will it restore him [her] to a control over his [her] own life and destiny? In other words, will it lead to Swaraj [freedom] for the hungry and spiritually starving millions?
Then you will find your doubts and your self melt away."

- One of the last notes left behind by Gandhi in 1948, expressing his deepest social thought.


Hello All,
Was away for long time with my sarcastic notes though I had lot many ideas but was too lazy to write it down. Few notes before I start with the post main body. First, I live in Bangalore since past 2 year and its my nature to get bored with anything any place where I stays for more than a year(or is it less). Second, I don't think I need to tell about who "Mahatma Gandhi" is/was in this post. Third, Above talisman was present in all the NCERT course book like a preface of any book. Never felt it carries some significance to me. But guess it had. And the talisman still carries the charm with it but in different perspective. ;-)

Last weekend was a happening one with me agreeing to come to Tirupati with my friends who happened to show the gratitude to GOD for making them successful in their endeavor(Read top rung Management college ranked between 1 to 8). And I joined them as this was going to be the last trip(first and last obviously) which I was making with them as they will be heading to northern part mostly and also to show gratitude to GOD for not making me successful in my endeavour(again read some management college).

There were 7 of us, 4 from Bangalore including me and 3 from Chennai (Heaven on the earth). This trip to Tirupati was TOTALLY unplanned we did not have tickets for the temple. Few souls who are not from India and visit my blog read about tirupati because this temple(place of worship) is one of its kind where there is a needs to have ticket/reservation to see the GOD. You will definitely find how great the GOD is because you need to take appointment to see him and that too for fraction of seconds. Govindaa Gooovindaaaa!!!

Due to my work commitment I was not free till 8PM Friday so asked friends to book the train which leaves last from Bangalore to Chennai. Boarded the train at 11:45 PM in night and from there our joy ride started. As its summer season so it was hot in Bangalore too which I thought was unbearable so didn't sleep till the train started running at full pace. Nearly at 12:30AM I slept and was woke up after hardly an hour. I was drenched with sweat as if I had some ghostly dreams. But truth was something else train had entered the lovely and cool weather of TN which was the main cause of my sweating heavily. Couldn't sleep whole night somehow reached Chennai early morning. Took local train and then an auto-rickshaw to finally reach my friends house. But the situation was If it was allowed in India/Chennai, I would have done striptease. Basically the word striptease doesn't fit hear but guess those who are dying in Chennai might understand my plight. Took a bath as soon as I reached his house had breakfast, another round of bath, had tasty food which friend cooked and then again a round of bath. Played cards (famous game of 29) for couple of hours and then we decided to leave for Tirupati in 2 hours. 2 hours time line because again everyone had to take the bath before leaving (after dinner obviously). Somehow I feel in Chennai, people(not all, only disgusting people like us) thinks food and bath are lovely pair which shouldn't be broken. Another friend of mine who was popular for saving water by not taking bath for weeks (or is it months) during engineering days was religiously following the 5 times bath a day schedule. ;-)

Trip from Chennai to Tirupati:-

However much I will say about the trip it will be less only. I guess one phrase what written for such moment only 'Few things in this world are unexplainable and the real feeling can be felt only if you are present at that moment'. Though we started from Chennai after having a nice bath, but the happy feeling was gone as soon as we stayed in the outside weather for say 20 minutes(or is it less, or am I exaggerating?). Somehow reached the bus stand and then we came to know that the bus which is about to leave is the last bus for Tirupati. We boarded it hurriedly and took the ticket. Lucky US!!! But the lucky feeling too was gone after taking the ticket because we got last seat, and you will never know what fun you get when you are traveling on bumpy and hilly road while seating on the last seat. And that too with all enthusiastic people who are excited about going to Tirupati, or is it travelling for first time? Whatever, they were making noise at the peak and at the same time hot weather was aiding to our plight. But guess it was not enough, the bus which we boarded and which was about to leave didnot leave and we were inside the bus for 20-30 minutes contemplating bus will leave now. Grrr.. But wait wait, this too was not enough because we saw another bus with no passenger at all coming to the same stand :'( And unfortunately we cant change the bus too, because we already took the ticket. Grrr.. And you know what, bus which came later left before us. :'( :'(

Thank GOD , after full 35 minutes our bus started finally and then something happened that they stopped after 2 KM hardly. And now we thought enough is enough, its almost 11:30 PM and now weather is cool outside. So lets get outside till the bus starts. After doing some goods loading the bus started at 12 AM. We thought at last we will be reaching tirupati on our planned time and with ample amount of sleep too. But our luck did not leave there too. Enthusiastic people never stopped talking and thanks to the co-passenger beside us and the heat due to whole commotion we were never able to sleep and whole night was gone awake.

We reached the tiruapti/tirumala somehow and started looking for ticket. And then yuppie!!! That thing happened which we were expecting may happen to us. We didnot get the ticket as ticket are sold in tirupati not in tirumala for same day darshanam. And we were thinking what to do now, because if we go back to tirupati and take the ticket it wouldn't have been possible to do the darshanam same day, as informed by few people there. Suddenly, we were approached by our well wishers who want to give us opportunity for darshan today itself. And he asked for 5000 Rs for the well wishing off course. We were taken aback and told thank you and we wont be taking the offer for two reason's. One it was too much and other we didnot carry that much cash combining all 7 of us. And there is reason for that too, software engineer do all the thing either online or through card for him there is little existence of material thing called hard cash!!! We finalized to go for free darshanam and we started for it. And take my experience, never ever try for free darshnam!!! you will be crushed in the queue until and unless you are body builder.

Free dharshanam!!! Was it free? you will get to know it soon. It was nearly 6'0 clock in morning when we got into the queue for free dharshnam. And then reached the cell, yeah its called cell only like one you have in jail, with only difference motif's and out come are different for going into the cell and coming out too. And we were welcomed by big board outside the cell, which said 9'0 clock dharshanam. Wait wait, it was not for 9 AM even though we reached the cell at 6:30 AM. It was for 9 PM, a whooping 15 hour wait for getting into the main queue for dharshanam. And we were like, WTF!!! What shall we do now, shall we go back, shall we stay or what shall we do now. And that indecision moment helped us greatly. Gate keeper started shouting to get into the cell and we told we have to stay inside that cell for 15 hours. Guessing our urgency and feeling we might go away without the dharshanam he asked us to stay outside the cell for a while. After 5 minute, he closed that cell too and then called us, and told 200Rs each person, for putting into main queue and also told we will be done with the dharshanam by 10 AM today itself. Exciting offer!!! but we were little suspicious because we never heard anything like bribery in Tirumala atleast taking into account how auspicious place it was and how people fear about doing anything wrong there. And one thing I want to clear people go to Tirumala because they want to thank the almighty and also sure that the mere dharshanam will clear all the wrong doers they did in their entire life. So it was fine by our part giving the bribe by us. ;-)

The guy was true marketing professional, and he told put away your suspicion, he wont be taking any money until the moment he puts us in main queue, from where it will be mere 2 hours wait for dharshanam. And that's what he did. Now everything in fast forward and boring way(or was it boring earlier), we paid the money, we had the dharshnam and we left as quickly as we can, reached tirupati from tirumala, got into AC restaurant, had good food (though it was not good), and did not leave until we got an AC bus, reached Chennai, had something good (this time is was good), boarded the bus to reach Chennai station to catch the train, got into the train and reached Bangalore. Oops, missed one thing again between reaching Chennai and having good food, and you know what was that. Nice Bath!!!

And reason for writing everything in fast forward, it was too long for a post and second I don't think I will be able to review it before publishing this post and also don't think readers will be having enough patience to read through our plight!!! Though I sincerely believe in on psychological statement, one's plight is others reason for enjoyment.

This is the end!!! Thank you if you were able to last till this point.

P.S.:- It was half written a months back but never felt like completing it. But finally completed it. And also I am sorry for spelling mistake, grammatical mistake wherever it happened. Dharshanam means seeing the God's temple, Temple is at hill called Tirumala, and Tirupati is the starting point of the hill. I guess this will be enough. :-)

P.P.S.:- Why Gandhi's Talisman??? Well I was kinda feeling that Bangalore is getting hotter and it is loosing its charm. But guess it was not the case, it is still better comparitively (on weather front).

Aimless

This post is more like a personal post and reader wont find anything good below.

Life has been much like a roller coaster ride since past one month, with a nauseating feeling. Done with the SP Jain interview call. Performed at the abyss. The way I started with the interview surprised myself too, tried doing damage control later but the end result was expected. I was kicked out. The whole episode was running in my mind at each and every moment for a week. The twinging effect will take some time to subside I suppose. Even after a month has been passed but the moment hasn't stopped giving me nightmares. Immediately after the interview I decided not to try for such adventure again. :-)

Now with all this resolutionary moment, I find myself standing nowhere with no idea where to go. Passing the second, minute, hour, day, week or month without any serious thought. An oxymoron, jobless with job. And this feeling is hurting hard. But whats decided is decided. I will be passing my time either reading some novel or playing some computer game or may be sometimes writing some BS till I get the point that life has something more than mentioned above.

Another thing which was keeping me busy and wasn't allowing me to come for writing something useful was my obsession toward an online game called mobwar on Facebook.

And award goes to....

Wasn't getting time at all since past few days and to make the matter worse I got some work during last Saturday and Sunday too. Couldn't sleep at all during weekend because I was working almost 48 hours continuously. :(

Today thought to work on the blog and this time with the award which has been given to me. I am being awarded "Fucking Fabulous Blog " which came from daisyblue, an avid story teller.

This award comes with some rules with it that I have copy pasted below :D

* Put the image on your blog
* List 10 truths about yourself
* Give the award to 5 other people
* Provide meaningful quotation

So here goes the image,


Before revealing my truths, I would bend a little and provide my quotation first,
"Once the game is over king and pawn goes to the same box." This is just to remind me that no one carries any advantage when on a level ground and should be treated equally. There are still 2 or 3 favorite quotations of mine but guess we are allowed to give the best among all.

And here comes some truth:-
1) I have an opinion about everything and somehow they are always right.
2) I never touched the computer in my life before joining my engineering and guess couldn't have had if I wouldn't have had joined it.
3)I am pathetic in English grammar and English is kinda nemesis for me.
4) I get bored with anything in a short period and always looks for something new.
5) I hate waiting for anything or anyone even though if it will do good to me. And want everything ON time .
6) I want to die once and then come back again in same body to see how does it feel to be dead.
7) I am very lazy and prefer sleeping long hour on sofa rather than exploring places.
8)I am short tempered and can shout like hell when angry.
9) First thing which I install in my computer after installing the OS is Cambridge dictionary to use as a reference for spelling.
10) If any idea strikes me while walking/roaming I save it in my mobile to blog on it later, though I never wrote on whatever saved on my mobile else my blog count could have had gone in thousands.

And I pass on the award to,
Amitabh Bachchan
Manjunath
Desh
Anish
Abhinav

Disclaimer:- Except Manju and Anish I never met any other lsited here in person but follow their blogs sometime.

P.S.:- I forgot to mention an important point or say a truth, I forget peoples face and their name very soon and when I meet again I wonder where did I met him or her. ;-)

Human Psychology - A mess???

Well well well.. Am not here to give a lecture on psychology. Its just an observation and the thought process which gave rise to few questions.
  1. In which case we curse ourselves more? Change money which we forgot taking from bus conductor or huge sum which we spent on trivial stuff?
  2. What among two options make us feel stupid? Shares which we sold projecting the fall in prices later(which unfortunately rose much higher) or Shares which we did not sell projecting increase in prices(which again unfortunately fell till abyss)
  3. What hurt us more? A failed love(one sided off course) or A failed relationship(real one)
  4. Who is more careless when -? Your spouse who got pickpocket or You got pickpocket.
  5. What gives more pleasure? If someone we hate, lose or we winning something(one you hate is not your competitor)?

Not sure if honest answer comes as second option for all question. Human mind somehow attracts me for it complexity and dis synchronized and double facet pattern of behavior which it shows. I expect 80% will go for first option. But why? That's somehow unexplainable. Or may be unconscious mind never stop wanting our SELF at top of everything.

P.S.:- I was busy playing game all night past 10 days, and that was the reason of me posting after a gap and also for coming up with such a dull topic. Wanted to write over Oscars and Slumdog Millionaire but somehow didnot come up. Watched a lot many movies past few days and yeah I do such activity when I am lost and bored completely. :(

Online Marketing

Time for a lesson on online marketing - a layman perspective(advanced and choosy of course)

This thought came after seeing the change in ad pattern on hotmail which was probably trying to come in Yahoo Beta version plans. Those who use hotmail might have notice it that the advertisement which used to be on top of the page horizontally is now in right side of the screen,vertically. The way in which yahoo beta version is advertising. I am not sure who advised them to come with the advertisement in right bar , vertically and that too with pictures in it. Yeah it indeed catch the eye and you can't miss it, but at the same time it irritates too. And that is the reason due to which I restored the classic version of yahoo mail after trying the beta version. Hotmail, high time to introduce features like restoring, else I don't see myself using hotmail in long run probably. Best way of online marketing, is how google do it. How come you are so good ,google. I hate you I hate you. Text advertisement in vertical right bar. And pictured  advertisement in right bottom of the page. In none of the case, I ever clicked the ad though.  For me advertisement in horizontal bar was more like a theme, which made feel good inbox. Wonder who gets trapped in the net of this online marketing. [:thinking]

Moral of the story:-  Pictured advertisement in vertical right bar is a bad idea of online marketing.

Being IIM

So what's the first thought came into your mind after reading the title of this post?  Indian Institute of Management(IIM)? Story of IIM student? About fight to get into IIM? MBA? C'mon give a break. Time to grow up. This post doesn't have to do anything with mentioned above. This is a story about Indian IT Male(IIM), a profile which is very common in India now. And yeah this spicy post shouldn't be taken as true reality though it might be. :P

Engineering a very easy degree in India, which can be obtained from grey market(fake one) other then getting it first hand with your effortless effort of 4 years in engineering college. Here engineering doesn't mean working on new idea or developing something on idea already existing, but just to cram some formulae, theory a night before exam and just vomit everything(I am not talking about vomiting literally %$#%) you crammed a night before in the paper to clear it and come out with a bright,shining degree. Engineering degree can be analogous of "India Shining" campaign which was as hollow as the degree. So coming to what an engineer learn at educational front? Answer is in one word NOTHING. Now don't come to me saying that you have learnt a lot in your engineering life. ;-) 

But few things they become good at, and that are, giving bolvachan (say, philosophical thought), how to download movies & songs and from where, crashing the computer and rest are clandestine and shouldn't be spoken over here. :P And Achievement after completing the engineering degree are, thousands of movies and songs stored in there TB(in our time it was GB) capacity hardisk, a long list of movies they have seen, few friends and of course a degree. Its pity if you did not do it in your engineer life. And am really sorry if you have wasted your FOUR precious year studying some engineering concept or some research paper which you will never use. 

And there are two path after completing the degree, one come and join IT or go for higher studies to again do the same stuff. :P And those who join the IT give rise to flavoured IIM. But someway or other one admirable quality of Indian engineers are, they can DO anything under given timeline and that is the thing which make them survive the IT. 

And now comes what they do and what they think.  Starting from fresher till they become experienced player.

Before joining the company they are full of  enthusiastic to do something great in life. Yeah they start thinking about LIFE, a questionable and debatable topic. Pass the training period which lies anywhere between 1-4 months, get into some project and then suddenly 8 more month passes (yes without doing any work and not to miss, learning), which completes the first year. By that time looking around no work, no learning situation the seed of higher education planted. And only thing which they find is, yeah, its the one and only one, CAT. Donate some money to coaching institute, and later more donation to colleges for filling the form, and bingo when the exam is just a month away, WORK as a blood thirsty demon in face of project lead comes from nowhere. Feel frustrated with it, but somehow do the work and preparing side by side for exam. Write the paper and fail to reach the expected percentile and then donate more money for application form where their percentile requirement they can fulfill. Take adhoc leave in Jan/Feb/March to attend the selection process and process follows as mentioned in my previous post 'yem bee yee'.  Get admission but realize that college doesn't match there aspiration, drop the plan for admission thinking in mind to prepare again. And this marks the completion of TWO years in IT. By the time third year begin the very thought of preparing starts dieing, third year passes with retrospection. Feel more frustrated, plan for shifting the company and some take this measure while some do not. Think about career option beyond Master's course and the monotonous IT life. More they think more interesting ideas they get. Few are listed as below in priority level.
  • To go back to village and start farming.
  • To open a PAN shop.
  • To open a tiffin shop or restaurant.
  • To commit suicide???
  • To continue working in IT
Whatever career option they think, they do continue with the least priority thing which is continue working in IT.  And this complete there fourth year in IT. Fifth year may result in them thinking that them becoming stagnant in career and then taking some part time course to improve the resume and in side working on marriage plan, as by the time they become lead they become lonely with everyone flocking around mostly with selfish motifs.  And then the never ending cycle continues. Guess I will be able to comment over the final destination after reaching there till then, No Comments!!!

Possibly story of IIF(Indian IT Female) also goes on same line, till they get married and from there IIF and IIM takes different path because for female life become secure while for male probably it become insecure. hehehe Making males taking some different measures. ;-)

Blog Hit - a milestone achieved

I was happy to see that blog hit for my page is reaching the figure 9000. That's not bad taking into account my intermittent postings. Over it due to my dormancy on my page for past 12 months, my blog hit was just 1700 last year. So overall, the average for my blog ranges in 3650 hit an year(nearly 10 hit a day). Yuppie!!!

Few more thing I found, mostly I write sarcastic comments or something related to advertisement. Guess its giving an insight into my thought process too. :D

Special thanks to all the readers for checking my blog page regularly. :-)

Yem Bee Yee!!!

"Yem Bee Yee " a disease which have the ability to to become chronic if proper action not take now. Or I guess its too late!!! It can be easily be observed from the figure. CAT taker for year 2006 was around 1.7 lakh which increased to 2.2 lakh in 2007 and reached a figure of 2.8 lakh. A consistent increase of nearly 25% every year. And if you believe the analysts, the figure will reach 3.5 to 4 lakh in coming year. And so is the case of coaching market which is growing leap and bound and have reached nearly half a billion rupees. Colleges which were never heard say 3-4 years back are now tough to get into. And the colleges which were tough to get into 3-4 year back are now nearly impossible to get. :D

Lets just do a quick check who is gaining due to all this operation? I would say Coaching institute, Colleges. Why? Well I gave the analysis part in paragraph above. And who are the losers? Aspirants off course and the company where these aspirants(if working) are working. Doubt? I salute the person who gave the statement, GRASS IS ALWAYS GREENER THE OTHER SIDE. Might be written for donkey's but fits aptly for MBA aspirants. Running or say quitting attitude and the greener picture post MBA make them think suddenly life will take a turn in Z-axis from current 2 dimensional monotonous system. They think post MBA will make them get a fat pay cheque with not much of effort. And coaching institute, media air their desire, and they start running for never ending run of MBA putting aside there work, ignoring opportunities, responsibility. Though the beginning give a filling low input and high output scenario, but once into it realize that what they were looking was just a tip of iceberg, and viola!!! the Titanic riding for dream destination 'MBA' hue and cry over the exorbitant application fees of colleges which comes with a deadline date much before the main exam. Greed made them fuel the ship so as to reach the destination quickly. And there is a twist in the story, this time the approaching iceberg is not that big to affect the ship and ship sail through with little damage on pocket for which anyway there company is paying.

Comes the exam date, and then few realizes that damage which they thought was not that small as they were thinking they need to do some repair, some more application are filled now. By the time the whole application process gets over, aspirant realize that the damage on pocket was also not small and was huge for applications only, say a modest figure of 20k-25k, nearly a month salary (minimum). No heed to the damage is given as still the bright and greener picture is in view. Thank God, calls starts coming out. And somehow the applicant make it finally to few colleges selection process. Start preparing for the process, and start thinking about why MBA, why this college, aim in life, ideals, where they want to see them after 5-10 year, plan to achieve and crap like this. And surprisingly no one comes out with the correct and honest answer. Few examples:-

Q. Why MBA?
Honest Answer:- I feel that a fat cheque will be waiting for me after completion of course and moreover I am good for nothing and my condition is similar to what my manager is. And I don't want to work at all that's why I want to do MBA. And also all my friends were doing it without knowing why they are doing so I was also doing it. :P

Answer which is actually spoken(Touch of honesty Zero)? :- Something on line of growth opportunity, aspirations in life which can't be achieved without MBA and it goes on an on. 

Q.Why this college?
Honest answer:- I am not getting any other college and someone told me the placement figures are good for this college as compared to other one.

Answer which is given:- College ethics and ideals matching with mine or something on this line

Q. Where after 5 year
Honest Answer:- 5 years? are you mad? I don't even think what I am going to do in evening, planning for year 5 year from now is crazy. Screw you!!!

Answers which is given :- entrepreneur and going hand in hand with Bill Gates or Mittal or Tata or something similar to line above. :P

Lot many question are there, its a hell lot of work. Will come out with the dossier in days to come.

Lets get back to the agenda. After few more interview, final call list comes those who are selected jumps with joy and those rejected try again next year, because once you are addicted its tough to get out of it, more like a narcotics. Lets talk about those who were jumping with joy, reach the college, then come the rigor of course. Think I am screwed why did I come here? Summers start, get the feeling how easy it was thrashing the lead those days rather than getting a summers. Every day pass with a feeling, thank GOD at least one day has passed. And then comes the placement days. And from nowhere iceberg appears only to crash there dream run. Manage to get the job somehow which feels like peanut including the tax figures and expectation from the recruiter. Think of the golden days of IT and sighing on decision to come to MBA taking into consideration only placement figure. And the titanic sink again this time.

Disclaimer:- This post is written on a lighter note, take it sportively and don't take it as real picture of MBA. Two years which you are going to spend will be the best days in your life no matter what the placement figures are. It will be surely a refreshing break from the work. And this gives you another opportunity to make life long friends (in loads) after your graduation with IQ level similar to yours. And last but not the list, writer is not trying to defame any institution nor demeaning the aspirants. Post will be deleted if more than 100 comments comes against it. :P

Google Chrome!!!

Google trying its hand in everything, and no doubt one day we will hear that it has a market share for OS too.  But I am sure of one thing, they are probably gonna caught in some legal issue some day or other. I dont know how many of you actually encountered the problem, google doesn't support MS mail (Hotmail) upto some extent. The application doesnt respond properly with hotmail. Also on google chrome, all sites other than google's crash once and you will get the page broken link and site not exist. Belive me it came for yahoo.com too!!! screw you chrome!!!

I am writing this after using Chrome for nearly 30 days and after declaring chrome as my official browser last month on 26th. Chrome has replace mozilla and due to my habbit of  throwing/scrapping things which I dont use made mozilla to go completely out from my TV(means laptop), browser which I used for almost 2 years.And now I miss mozilla!!!

I hate you google!!! And yeah I can tell this while using your so called application blogger and I will still use it. :D

P.S.:- I am back with my posts which lack synchronization and not to miss, clarity of thought. :P

Bell Bazao!!!

I hope many of you might have seen the advertisement by BELL BAJAO initiative on television(Indian Chaneels only) these days. Boman Irani alias Dr. J (dot) austana [Coutesy : Munna Bhai MBBS] urge people to ring the bell to halt the domestic violence. And I know people will love to see what the starting line of web page has to say. 

"Bell Bajao" (Ring the Bell) urges men to take a stand against domestic violence. Ring the bell and intervene in situations of abuse. A simple act from your side is all it takes to bring it to a halt.

I would like to ask three question :-

1) Why only MEN need to take a stand against domestic violence. Can't women take stand here? Or I guess Women Organization are already working with there protests and slogan war against men(alas, he is always the culprit), so some people thought lets come up with this idea of men against a CRUEL man. ;-)

2) Why its been projected that domestic violence is solely caused due to man. And women doesn't have to play any role there? At a time I would have accepted if it could have been rural area, but urban area I guess, you try your hand and you will get one on you too. [WELL I never got into such situation, if u r cooking something like that in your mind as of now then]

3) Why we hear only crying lady and a beating man? Can't they come up with opposite idea? It will be heard for sure. :D

Domestic Violence initiatives? Do we need it? We already have so many laws and initiatives in this regards.And seldom law is found in use anywhere and if used then that too at upper or higher middle class, and that too many a time to gain some monetary benefits. So whose morality is in question here? And also its a known fact outsiders interference with personal matters (yes personal you read right, I am saying its a personal matter) usually have sever repercussions. At the end its the morality of the person involved (man or women) which stops such incidents. Anyway lets hope the initiative will work. And also hope ringing the bell dont give shock like the havells advertisement - "Shock Laga laga shock laga". Amen!!!

Inspired by yahoo

In an attempt to revamp the yahoo and to come at the level of google, yahoo has improved the features. But the thing is they, do things pretty late which takes away the market from them. Had they taken initiative before google, they could have been a leading web portal in the world and richest company too, and their share prices in 100's of $  like Google's 342$ per share, in place of current value of  around 12$. But one thing they are still top on, that's the web cam feature in there messenger. Google probably still struggling to get it done.

But thing I like about Yahoo, they do learn from mistake and they never take back step whatever may be the condition is. 

Declining Microsoft hostile bid, in spite of crisis running in the company need a hell lot of courage. People may say the aftermath of declining the offer was devastating for yahoo, but the same rule hit hard Microsoft too. And MS attempt to topple the board of directors gone in vein due to strong hold of Yang and Filo.  

And improving on features, on mail, messenger, personal after taking lesson from GOOGLE success is another learning. 

Hope yahoo will achieve its lost glory again. :-)

Crossed finger Vs Luck!!!

I wish I could have added one more item in my resolution list, and that is, to make promise to update the blog regularly and break it always. At least this would have saved me from guilt feeling of not working on my blog page and would have also added something in my achievement list. Achievement of  making Routine/Plan which I followed with heart and soul. ;-)

Coming on topic, I use to hear this a lot while waiting for something good "Keep your finger crossed". Always wondered the correlation between the twisted finger and luck. If I take this as a fact then it means those with naturally twisted(abnormal) fingers are luckiest lot. Which I doubt is the case. So why this? Human is a very strange species and usually come up with strange ideas for every moment. Lots of unanswered behaviour. BTW if crossed finger would have brought luck I would have had tied all my fingers in crossed form with string, so as never to fail in luck game because for me hard work is not found in dictionary. :D

P.S.:- Surprisingly got a call from SP Jain over my educational profile, which gave a boost to my confidence as I never thought my profile has the spark. Hope crossed finger will bring luck, else I am still going with my resolution. ;-)

Resolution Time

Before starting off with my post I would like to wish all my blog readers a very happy and prosperous new year. Cheers... :-)

Each new year comes with new hopes, expectations, planning and last but not the least, Resolutions. Resolutions which we make so as not to commit the mistakes which we committed earlier and also to start soemthing new. And many a time it takes a weird outlook, feels mine one too. And somehow it always happen that, we make the resolutions and forget it never to follow it. But good part is this gives a chance of doing analysis at the year end what we did and what we shouldn't have done.

For a change this year I am making resolution which I bet I will follow even in my dreams/ unconsiously. My resolutions for this year:-
1) I will not study seriously to get into either something big or small.
2) I will not concentrate on my work and won't do any work seriously. [I can write this as I didnot give link for my blog page to any of my colleagues. He he]
3) I will delete scraps from public forum entered on my profile page.
4) I will sleep atleast 11 hours a day
5) I will not go to gym regularly.
6) I will make long duration calls to everyone in my phone book. And will see to it that my phone bill don't goes below 1200 atleast.
7) I will eat as much as I can and also whenever I can and will reach target of 36 waist size by year end.
8) I will take loan whenever opportunity comes and wont let the debt amount on me go below 10k a month.
9) I will not decide to have a clear goal in my life and wont even think about actions needed to achieve that.


I think this is all for now. May add few more points later if and when I will remember. WISH NOT TO FOLLOW A SINGLE RESOLUTION MADE THIS YEAR. :-)
