Geared 2008

I should have mentioned about this last month itself, anyway, it was one of the 1st mainstream college activities that I witnessed after entering college, the first day was indeed an awesome experience, merry making with friends and dancing to the tunes of the latest music, having icecreams and all. But the next 2 days were not all that interesting, because all it offered was a few old cars and some bikes stunts, and adding to it all, on the third day there was heavy rain, which played spoilsport and hence pulled down the curtains. It may have been better had it not been for the rain. Anyway, all together it was a neat program. Cheers to the Royal Mexx.....

COLLEGE LIFE

Well, the much awaited college days have undoubtedly arrived, after a very large number of what i would like to describe as hollow days, it has finally arrived. But the only thing that remains now is an introspection. Do I really get what i expect out of my college, if you ask me i would say, " So far NO !". The reason for that, being the fact that its more or less just like my school (except for the uniform of course), but not getting that extra bit that we all expect when we say College..... Anyway the only thing I can do now is to wait..WAIT for that day when im a senior and maybe then i'll be able to enjoy to my content..even after what appeared to me as a long wait, the wait continues...................

Eventful Life???

This article is being written by me in the dark hours of 10:35pm, a time in which the 22nd of August approaches an end, to bring about the dawn of the 23rd of August. This day was in a way important for me, as it was the closing day for my option registration. Further changes, if any, can in no way be executed. Evening time, my father, my brother and myself went for a small purchase, that of a mobile phone which my friend had suggested just yesterday. As I write this, I am patiently awaiting that time in which I really get to lay my paws on my new mobile. Though these are times when the Apple iphone frenzy is about. This little phone of mine is just as good as any iphone to me. This brings into my mind a famous Malayalam proverb: കാക്കക്കും തന്‍ കുഞ്ഞു പൊന്‍ കുഞ്ഞു For a crow, its own child is just like another golden child in its eyes( though not really one!). I must confess, I belong to the same platform. It seems my mobile initially needs to be charged for six hours at a stretch, pr...

Sushil Kumar ki jai

After Abhinav Bindra, Sushil Kumar has done us proud by getting a bronze medal in the Olympics. Commendable performance indeed. This clearly shows that we do have immense potential, such great atheletes should come up and they deserve credit for what they do. A moment of glory for India indeed. JAI HIND

"MY HOBBY IS READING"

It used to be a trend those days, well, anyway, in my small classes, just as we entered into a new school year our teachers used to ask us to introduce ourselves. What is your name? How do you come to school? Where is your house? What I your hobby? HOBBY— That’s right “What is your hobby?” A question which we find quite common, in many interviews and all. Never ever wanting to be inferior to anyone in anything, I used to say without even the slightest of hesitation “READING”. Lets just say I kept on doing this till my 8th standard and I must admit I had no plans of stopping it either. Until one fine day my English sir said to me: “Oh! So reading is your hobby, is it, that’s just good, well.....I just want to know who your favorite author is and why? Which do you think is the most magnificent piece of work that you have ever read?” Undoubtedly I was in a fix situation. Being a guy, who had never ever bothered to read even the silliest of comics, I stood there gazing at the group before ...
