And I m back!!

I know its been really long since i last put up a post . I was waiting for my exams to get over but little did i know that the very day my exam gets over my loyal computer will leave my side . The computer technician took days to install the new motherboard and the cabinet , then it was a series of calls to the ISP , THE TECHNICIAN to solve my "COMPUTER-JI's" problem. After which began the wait ,(which ofcourse is the most bugging part) till those people actually came over to check .
Different guys came and did different things to my computer in a bid to get it connected to the internet, they presumed it couldn't be a LAN CARD problem because two new lan cards were installed. They meddled with everything, cut the wire but did not crimp it properly - crimping problem was solved over 3 days (as they didn’t turn up the previous 2 days), finally we got hold of one of the guys to check whether the net problem was due to the lan card and so it was. Again the technician came checked the card, installed a new one which he did after taking my CPU away from me for 2 days. All of this drama took over a month which left me feeling like an orphan for this whole time , I say this because I feel I have adopted WIKIPEDIA , there was a time I used to go up to my parents if I needed to know something but they are human after all and wiki is a know-it-all.
Dear WIKI ,orkut ,all my mailboxes and last but not the least my blog , I missed u all soo much .I cant believe i lived without the internet for over a whole month. IT JUST FEELS GREAT TO BE BACK.... WOOO HOOO!!!!!!!!!

BATS

I penned this down somewhere in mid october 2007 , I was up late at night studying for my forth coming examinations and that is when i noticed something stir up the silence , outside . This is what i saw through my window ...






When the lights go out ,
In the dark of the night,
This creepy creature -
Comes into foresight.
On trees it looks so small and fragile ,
But when it flies , it is super agile .

From branch to branch and tree to tree;
It moves so swiftly though it cant see.

It cries in frequencies we cannot hear ,
the sight of it just makes us fear .

It cuts through the silence and creates a din
Ignoring it seems like such a sin.

Alas! it has flown away,
The serenity is here to stay .

That was a BAT ,
caught in its act .

GOD LOVES U

Sunday mass can be awkward , weird, inspiring ,insightful ,thought provoking,mind boggling or just plain boring or may be just something you might agree or disagree with , if you are paying attention and listening .Every sermon given by the priest will generate one of the above reactions.

God has his ways of connecting to you . YES , YOU!! I have observed it and it has worked for me .Sometimes the signs are subtle , the blink and miss type and sometimes they are really LOUD and clear . Quite a few times , I have been bothered by issues which maybe dont even count now , but then they were matters which MATTERED then . SO ,yes i was worried and anxious about things I dont even remember now. As I type this i m trying to recollect but in vain . I remember clearly ,I went for mass with my mind cluttered with all that crap and suddenly the priest gives references to something pertaining to what i was worried about .( I swear i cant remember what it is ) and ohh, all of a sudden my ears stick up and I actually listen to the remaining sermon quite attentively and yea , my heart feels lighter and the mind is free.

I am amazed how this happens , it cant be mere coincidences. I read somewhere that "IF something happens once , it might not necessarily happen again , but if it happens for the second time , be sure it will happen for the third time ."I ve got my answers more than once ,during Sunday Mass. I believe there are answers to our questions everywhere .Its just a matter of looking around and taking note of all that is happening around you . You can get lost in the hustle-bustle of the city but the more observant you are ,the more startling revealations will be and they 'll get you to hilarious incidents to cherish.

So next time you feel low, go to the church/temple or just about anywhere, the local market,a garden , take a walk to the mall -go on a shopping spree(if it works for u ),binge eat , listen to music and if nothing works out GO TO SLEEP and you just might wake up with the realization that GOD LOVES YOU , and you problem might look insignificant , just be POSITIVE ...it helps ..Have a GOOD DAY

THATS THE WAY IT IS

I AM DIFFERENT ,oh yes , i really am ,trust me !! Different than most other girls my age . When they are busy matching accessories to clothes and right shade of lipstick to their shoes , I , am busy on my own trip.

I have made my choices in life and some pretty tough ones . I always detest being like anyone else on the face of this earth. I am different only because i choose to be that way. I realized this when i went ahead and took admission for a course no one had even heard of .The fact of the matter is that it is a new course and not everyone is ready to risk their career for the sake of individuality . SECURITY and MONEY are the things that people look for in a potential career option.

I m not just mere flesh and blood. I m more of soul , the spirit of the person is more important to me than the brand he/she sports or the mascara she wears or the deo he sprays. Some people cant digest my attitude but i like being this way. My being this way has gotten me into trouble at times .I have been snubbed at by people .I dont say that the choices i have made were always right . Life is about making mistakes and rectifying them , SO WHY BE AFRAID ..

They say , "A person is known for the choices he /she makes " .SO be different , be bold , be crazy, be weird , just be yourself and stand by your ideas and conviction , coz if u aint convinced no one else will be .
Its your faith in yourself that will see you though difficult times , the people around you are just characters of a play who will leave the stage when they finish playing their part ,but its you who has to move forward , the show must go on and there are no two ways about it .
That's really the way it is ........

ITS NEVER TOO LATE TO BLOG (when fro inspires, lol)

I always have been fascinated by the art of blogging. Always wanted to have a blog of my own but lazy as I can be, never really bothered signing up n getting started .

Finally 2ND JUNE 2007 -the day arrives . ME - doin my usual stuff online i.e. checking my orkut ,chatting with pals and ofcourse doing my research on GOOGLE. Today's interest was IEEE. Was just browsing through their site ,trying to find a connection between IEEE and my college SIESGST . So I put IEEE SIESGST as my query on google n viola i get my results , 4 ,to be precise. I randomly look thorugh all and the last one caught my eye. It was a link to my college senior's blog Nikhil J aka FRO. Always seen him in college but we never spoke. The guy is famous in college for various reasons , and was rechristened as FRO in college . Just a few days ago I happened to ask his batchmates and one my good friend Akshay on how the Fro name came up .I came to knw that the now really sober looking guy had CRAZY hair, really curly (AFRICAN TYPES) and so he came to be known as AFRO which then was abbreviated to Fro. LOL.
So,yes, there I was reading his blog , n must say it was inspiring .Not that he had super inspirational and GODLY suff in it ,it was the general day to day things he had written about and the fact that I actually knew some of the people mentioned in his blog made it more endearing .
So thats how i "got INSPIRED "in SIDDHARTH'S words , to publish my 1st post in my 1st proper BLOG and btw THANKS , Nikhil ,umm FRO.
