That old pair of jeans

2008-06-03T21:22:00.001+05:30

Jeans are by far the most comfortable things to wear. and they come in various colours....blahblahblah
basically we buy lots of clothes
we buy clothes from the day we are born.. and we need to keep buying coz we keep growing innit(tanyas going to kill me for this, sids going to love me)
same holds for jeans.. the sizes keep increasing 20-22-24-26-28-30-32 and so on.
the thing is that there comes a time when a single pair of jeans lasts a long time coz you stopped growing that much
and you really love that pair of jeans and you want to wear it all the time coz its just so nice. so you wear and the first few times you get it drycleaned coz the washing instructions on the inside label said so and you want them to stay new. and after that you realise its okay to let go and let it be washed in the washing machine. so it starts fading away. with every wash it fades, and the first few washes are really hard to digest coz you can see it fading away and you dont want it to. and then you reach the compromise.
After the first few years you feel the jeans ARE old and you go out to buy new ones, and you do, and you realise that its not the same.. the new jeans just arent as good as the previous ones and so you just go back to wearing the old ones.. you can see them starting to wear out, and it actually makes you feel nice.. the look of faded worn out jeans..
and then people start nagging you, keep telling you to stop wearing those jeans coz theyre too old or worn out. but you dont want to, coz its special.. its a part of who you are.. youve been through so much together, you just cant let it go. and you wear it even more just to make those people mad.. ahh the satisfaction that brings.

its almost like life innit(POW!)
there are things you dont want to let go but have to and move on to different things.. atleast try to until you realise that its just isnt as great as before and then you go back.. or try to. nostalgia..
i dont want to grow up.. pfft

Special update for the kids

2008-06-02T20:43:00.002+05:30

BA Maths v/s BSc. maths

Okay

so im not quite sure how many are going to read this, and how helpful this is going to be

but anyway

So, those who want to get admission into Stephens, or any other decent college in DU, this is for you

First of all, Have a decent Percentage in the boards. like a 92% in the best of four.. only SRCC does not take computers in the best of four.

anyway, for those wanting to do mathematics hons.. its a great course. you have the same openings as those for eco honours..

PLEASE REMEMBER THE FOLLOWING- DO NOT, i repeat, DO NOT, ever, do bsc maths. its hopeless, you have to attend boring science classes, even though they dont count towards the end, but you still need to pass all your science papers, and attend practicals.. basically with science, you'll be held up till 430 doing practicals almost everyday.

TAKE UP BA MATHS. its easier, you just have to do a few extra subjects which count, but its not that hard. and life is slightly easier and youre able to participate more. Stephens has a great maths faculty, trust me on that.

Eco honours, is good too. Stephens doesnt have the greatest eco faculty, or so ive heard. the eco people are forever cribbing over Raghu not giving them marks, and half the class failing in each test, etc.

Other colleges i dont know, but Hansraj has the best faculty, followed by SRCC/stephens(almost equal), Hindu comes next i guess.. the list goes on

Thats pretty much all i have to say on that.. i dont know about the other courses

Good luck kids

Okay tata

My First Ticket

2007-07-02T23:28:00.000+05:30

Hello

I got my first traffic ticket today

For U turning on a no U Turn place, where there was no sign. So i was just randomly stopped. I was with my driving school instructor of course, who happily got the ticket for me.

Anyway, so i was charged with the U turn, not having a proper licence, and not having documents of the car. A total of Rs. 2000.

The guy called the people from the Driving School to get the papers and I was let off.

They paid him 800

I was charged only with turning.

My first time

Sooner or later, I'll get me off this track.
Gotta do what it is that I do and then I'm - coming back.
Got sun in my face, sleeping rough on the road.

Just a Thought

2007-06-15T14:24:00.001+05:30

So its kinda raining right now, so my TataSky stopped working due to the clouds.
In very simple language, the rain gods have pissed me off.
So, for those of you who enjoy rain and all that it brings, here's a thought.
The next time you go out in the rain, keep in mind that its piss falling all over you. The rain gods are pissing right on you and your clothes, and your oh-so-expensive shoes.
Those of you who like to dance in the rain, you're dancing in piss.
Take that you rain gods.
And now even the bijli has gone.. ILL BE BACK!!

Hello
Its been a while since I actually posted something, and I was thinking that it's been a while. So after a while, here I am, here to post something textual(which reminds me, textual rhymes with sexual, just in case you are writing a poem)

What's been up with me?
Well, yes.
I now have a proper educational qualification to my name. I have passed class 12. Finally. Its been a long 14 years of school life.
The past few months have been an underwater swim of sorts. There have been more downs than ups. For those of you who don't already know, I did not get into any of the 12 colleges I applied. I also did not clear any of the engineering entrances. Hence, I will not be an engineer.

I did however clear the CBS test, and I had GD and interview yesterday. The GD was pretty good I think. A highly improbable event happened in the interview though. One of the three people taking the interview turned out to be Ishita Kapur's mother(Ishita was Exun's president 2005-06), hence she knew everything about me. I dont know whether that's going to go for me or against me.

Madras Gin, is finally working. Please visit our website www.madrasgin.com
Also TechQuotient is up. TechQuotient is an online quiz being conducted by the Madras Gin Team. Please visit www.techquotient.com for further details. And register if you feel like.

Tanya Puri, has decided to go deceptive. She is posting weird stuff which makes you think that there is something wrong with her(actually something IS wrong with her). ITS ALL A PUBLICITY STUNT.

WWDC is on. Apple is going to kill microsoft. Actually, Apple killed microsoft during the keynote. go watch. www.apple.com

Butt Fight

2007-05-31T20:03:00.000+05:30

Butt: noun. short for buttocks

Back in 6th grade, our first year in DPS RK Puram. A very interesting championship was conceptualized by a few males of class 6 D. It is what we know today as, Butt Fight. For those who didn't know, you do now.

What is Butt Fight?
I'm Sure you've seen two people boxing. This is similar, its just butt boxing.

How did it originate?
Well it started because a certain Akshay Johar was obsessed with the Butt and nothing But. He was constantly seen thrusting his posterior around. And when people got irritated with his butt thrusting, they Butted him back. That's how it started. Dhruv Kumar was the man behind the name. et Voila, Butt Fight was born.

Give me some more details-
At first, the sport of Butt Fighting was very disorganised and lacked professionalism. The great minds of Gursartaj Singh Nijjar, Dhruv Kumar, Akshay Johar, Dhruv Kumar Singh, Abhishek Suri, Anubhav Jalta, and "others" got together and decided to take Butt Fighting to a higher platform. The Butt Fighting League(BFL) was formed, and anyone with a butt was free to join.
A first of its kind sport where the managing executives also competed against each other.

The matches were held in Room no. D-04, DPS RK Puram, right under madam Banerjee's nose. The competition wasn't fair. There were the people like Mr. Dhruv Kumar, who was, although smaller but was more agile. Hence, he couldn't compete with the Lards, and vice versa. Mr. Dhruv Kumar himself decided that the BFL had to be categorised. Hence the BUTT SIZE was born.
Butt size, as you can understand, measured the size of the butt, using a water bottle, primarily because no instrument has been designed to measure butt sizes. A standard Butt Size Measure(BSM) was decided upon and this was something that truly revolutionized the BFL. For example, a person like Dhruv Kumar, having a butt size 2, would compete in the super-flybutt category and a person like Abhishek Suri, with a butt size 14 would compete in the Super heavybutt category.

The rules
1. The competitors were required to hit each other with swift movements of their respective derrieres.
2. No hands were allowed.
3. The person who could successfully push someone against the boundary and keep him there for some time would win.
4. The winner was decided on the basis of cheer votes.

The Arena
Classroom, near the teacher's desk.

The Demise of the Butt Fighting League
Just when the BFL was reaching its peak, and plans for the great Butt-off were under way, a certain element of the opposite gender filed a complaint against the BFL, for vandalism. The BFL wasn't allowed to fight the case. A few tables were disturbed at times, specially during Heavybutt matches, but that's about it.

Champions of the BFL
1. Super Heavybutt champion- Abhishek Suri aka The SuperButt
2. Heavybutt Champion- Akshay Johar aka FunnyButt
3. Normalbutt Champion- Anubhav Jalta aka Jalta
4. Flybutt Champion- Gursartaj Singh Nijjar aka the ButtSurd
5. Super Flybutt champion - Dhruv Kumar aka the Buttmeister

May the BFL rest in peace

How to make a sandwich that tastes like a sub

2007-04-12T12:27:00.000+05:30

Step 1. Bread, the very obvious stepStep 2. Lettuce. Iceberg is good. Normal would do too. just put it all over the bread

Step 3. Gherkins. Available at your local department store. They might not be very good to look at. but very tasty
Step 4. Jalapenos. Note to self: use macro mode next time

Step 5. Olives. Black. Step 6. something meaty. in my case chicken salami. try chicken ham

Step 7. My favourite
Step 8. There you have it. the perfect sandwich

School Life comes to an end

2007-02-04T11:38:00.000+05:30

//I started writing this on 19 December, and then just forgot to complete, so some parts of the post may seem out of context.
Yes
13 years of being a thoroughbred dipsite are coming to an end. The end, which shall be marked by a new beginning.
As the year draws to a close, people(girls..) are mostly seen crying and distributing slam sheets and getting pictures clicked with every pillar and every other random person in school.
I, on the other hand, am very happy about the whole issue. I am glad that school is finally ending.
I owe a lot to my school, the person that I am, is all because of DPS RK Puram. But unfortunately, the last two years at DPS RK Puram have been very depressing and nothing that I would like to remember(excluding the exun bit, which I shall explain later). It is rather sad that I am leaving school on such a note, but such is the life in class 11 and 12.

Exun- Thats probably the best thing that happened to me during my school years. I joined Exun in class 7, with Dhruv and Abhishek. I have perhaps missed about 4000 periods in school as a part of exun and dhruv has missed even more. Exun has been a lot of fun, from missing periods, to eating a lot of food, working on the mac, being in the lab all the time, being walking tech support, making magazines, conducting events, reaching inaccessible areas of the school, staying in school till 10 at night, we've done it all. And last year, Sid joined us(hes probably thanking his stars that we landed up in the same section.. hehe). It was a lot of fun walking around like spies on the lookout for our maths teacher(she was utterly boring last year).

so haha.. i forgot what i was going to write, Dhruvs probably said it all.

Ill just post some pictures of the farewellAkshat and Sidhant share an intimate moment. Adarsh.. well hes just being himself

My favourite english teacher. And sid just cant let go of gadgets can he

DaCoW.

Mr. Mohit Dey, the coolest teacher in school

The Core Group

So yes I am back from Chandigarh. It was fun. For the first time, the train ride was actually what train rides are meant to be. You know like looking out the window, looking at the tree go by and thinking and stuff like that, the way Ruskin Bond has often described them.

And yes, I am in love with an older woman. Her name is Emma Parker Bowles. Shes hot, British and works for TopGear. What more could I ask for? The only problem is that shes 34 years old.

Thats about it for now

Turn around and SWITCH!!

2007-01-29T15:48:00.000+05:30

2007-01-22T21:57:00.000+05:30

Ride a bicycle all the way to Chandigarh.
Eat 2 foot longs(my stomach aint as big as dhruvs)
Go to a wild partay

Happy New Year

2007-01-02T14:20:00.000+05:30

Hello Boys and Girls
A very happy new year to you

I am now the proud owner of the phone you just saw, the sony ericsson k790i. Great Camera 3.2 MP. the pictures in the last post were taken with this wonderful thing.

Anyways
the board date sheet is out.. its pretty cool. The only sad part is that i would be spending my birthday in some examination center writing my maths exam, and i wont be free till the 4th of April. After that, I have entrance examinations every weekend. So basically, the next 5 months are going to be busy for me.

All my applications are on their way to the respective universities and I await the decisions. Hope I get in somewhere.

On an Apple note, the new iPhone has been spotted. Supposedly Apple is going in for a partnership with sony and they plan to release under the cybershot range. Heres a snapshot
The biggest let down, however, was: ITS NOT WHITE!!!!

Anyways Happy new year again

DPS MUN 2006

2006-12-06T22:05:00.000+05:30

So, another event is now officially over for me.. apart from exun that is
Our school has been organising DPS MUN since 2004 and I have participated in it since the same year, though I went for just one day in 2004.
My contribution in MUN has essentially involved providing Tech Support. Along with Dhruv, I have a lot of "masti" at MUN.
This year initially I had decided that I would be part of the conference and not just support staff and was very serious about the simulation and training programme but somewhere along the way lost interest. So anyways, I was USG for Information and Computer Services. Or CIS as Dhruv likes to call it.

We had a total of 7 people for CIS this year-
1. G
2. Dhruv
3. RG - Hes da man
4. Manas G
5. Kartikeya Ashthana
6. Sahil Bajaj
7. Kanika Singh

The first day was rather boring for us, as we got no work. Oh by the way, our work mostly includes typing out the draft resolutions for the delegates and providing any other kind of tech support required. So, the first day was mostly spent playing games on Sid's and RG's laptops. Sid has the PowerBook by the way(its a mac, dont ask). The highlights of the first day were-
1. RG's "mun"walk. Hes da man
2. Nobody recognizing me coz I was wearing a suit with a senior turban as Vibhu calls it. That was fun.
3. Mrs. Chona checking on us in the Business Center. Aashish Manchanda was playing Tribes 2 on RG's laptop when she opened the door to our room(Yes, we even had our own separate room) and Manchanda still did not realise. She saw him playing and commented, "Taking a break, eh". Yes, a break at 11:00 in the morning and the conference had just started at 1030.
4. OO.. and I totally forgot to mention. RG had a killer look. He came in a Black Scorpio(He rides in Style) with black tints, a black suit, completely set hair. and best of all, Black Shades. Total Mafia look.

Day 2 was a little bit better as we had some work to do. But, the delegates have horrible handwriting so it took us a while to understand what they had written in their resolutions. There was one such case where "drug" resembled "dung". Anyways, Our room got even cooler by Day 2. We decided to turn of the lights and I had my supercool JBL iPod speakers. We turned it into a mini theater. And of course, we played. By day 2, I got very good at Carmageddon. We smuggled 2 bottles of coke into our room coz the coke at IHC is too blaady expensive. Not a big deal, but the whole idea was just funny.

Day 3.
Again there wasnt too much work involved coz it was the last day, and most of the committees were trying their best to finish the topics. Dhruv, me and Adarsh had breakfast at All American Diner(AAD). My Chilli Dog was good. Dhruv's Chilli Double Burger was good. Adarsh's Vegetable Hoagie was a waste of money. And then after one hour Adarsh says,"Actually, it was good".
Anyways, Our MUN closing ceremony video didnt play coz well.. it didnt.
The closing ceremony was fine.
Tanya Puri won best delegate. Probably the only one from our school.
In kartikeya's words,"Humare school ka katta ho gayi".
And by the end of MUN kartikeya was just drunk.

MUN was the funnest ever this year specially coz we had fun people in CIS.

Other things at MUN this year include -
1. Dhruv putting a used Duracell battery in a glass of water
2. Ankit Srivastava not knowing where Cuba is. And then we made him believe that Cigar is the official currency of Cube. Basically, he said a lot of stupid stuff. But hes got the spirit to take it as a joke!
3. Our very intellectual conversation about Button Flys(Flies) vs Zippers.

Tanya says,"It hurts when things get stuck in it(Zippers)"(Shes obviously experienced the pain)
And Vibhu says,"Button Flys result in Ripples".

I cant remember anything else right now

Signing off

The Best Day of My Life

2006-11-27T21:48:00.000+05:30

So it was a Sunday yesterday, and it was probably the best day of my life
Most people spend their sundays sleeping and getting up late and probably chill out.
However, For the past one and a half years my Sundays include me getting up early and going to FIITJEE and coming back only 10 hours later, exhausted. And on top of all that, I have to study for the Monday Test as well. Anyways, I am rather glad that phase is over but nevertheless the FIITJEE have scheduled tests every alternate saturday till the end of april.
It's still fine.

So why was it the best day of my life?
Well I saw the Bentley Continental GT. On Road. In New Delhi. And it was White.
It was so cool. It wasnt going at a very high speed but the sound of the engine was so coooooll.. the grunt.

And thats not at all. While I was going back from the FIITJEE test. I saw another very cool car.
This time it was a yellow Lamborghini Gallardo(pronounced Gay-ardo). And cool it was.. The sound of the engine was better this time. But the problem is the guy couldnt go too fast. The car was begging for more.

OK so I have this pair of Tommy Jeans. It's good and its got the vintage look and everything. Theres this one thing I dont like at all. Button Fly.
What is the point of having a Button Fly?. What if someone really has to go, he/she probably will never be able to open those buttons in time hence.
The zippers always good

TCS IT Wiz 2006

2006-11-16T18:38:00.000+05:30

The TCS IT Wiz Quiz Competition was held for the first time in Delhi this year. More than 400 teams from schools in and around Delhi participated in the event. Three teams from school had participated, which are equally good but sadly only one team could qualify per school. And as a matter of fact, I have a feeling that only one team from all Delhi Public Schools qualified for the finals.

Let me introduce that team for you
1. Gursartaj Singh Nijjar
2. Dhruv Kumar

And now let me also introduce the winner of the award for the most stupid person on Earth
1. Dhruv Kumar

Dhruv Kumar conveniently decided to go home since the results were taking too much time. And when our team qualified I was left with no other choice but to go on stage alone.

The Quizmaster was Mr. Giri "PickBrain" Subramaniam. He was a fine chap except when it came to cracking jokes.

The preliminary round consisted of 20 questions which were quite simple according to many of the regular quizzers, and we later found out that all the finalists were separated by just 1 point.

Then, it was time for the finals. 6 teams qualified to battle it out on stage-
1. Amity International, Gurgaon
2. Mother's International School
3. Sardar Patel Vidyalaya
4. Amity International, Saket
5. Apeejay, Noida
6. DPS, RKP!!!!!

I will again remind that Dhruv had decided to ditch me. Dhruv is in trouble. Period.

The quiz had 6 rounds, three of them being buzzer rounds.
The first two rounds were a bit of a letdown with our team scoring just 20 points and MIS and Sardar Patel getting way ahead of us. The "Lone Warrior"(thats what the quizmaster decided to call me) was in third position practically throughout the quiz. And well, that was the case almost till the end of the quiz. But a quiz is never over till the last question and thats exactly what happened.

It was the last round, 2 questions left. Tension was thick. Blood Pressure High.
Sardar Patel 70
MIS 50
RKP 35

It was a buzzer round, with each question worth 15 points but it was -10 if you got it wrong
The question is on the screen, the tension is too much. The lone warrior presses the buzzer and answers only to be greeted by a very surprised look on Pickbrain's face almost killing the lone warrior. However, the surprised look was overpowered by the applause of the audience as the lone warrior was right.
MIS 50
RKP 50
So close.

The competition between MIS and RKP now.
The question is again on the screen. The lone warrior doesnt wait for the Pickbrain, presses the buzzer, pauses for a second and answers. The pickbrain tries the trick with the surprised look again. But alas, the lone warrior knows he is right and the audience just goes into fits of overwhelmed applause. The lone warrior has done it. He does it for DPS RKP.
DPS RKP manage second position and the final score was 65, just 5 points behind Sardar Patel and thus missing the national finals at Mumbai.

But wait, it wasnt over yet. The Pickbrain and everyone from TCS are just flabbergasted and they have no words for the Lone Warrior.
The Lone Warrior is declared as the "Gladiator of IT Quizzing of Delhi".. *takes a bow*

Plus, I will be flying to Mumbai to witness the Finals and probably have dinner with the CEO of TCS, Mr. Ramodorai(I dont know the spelling)

And I forgot about the prizes.
We received
1. iPod Nano 2 GB
2. Tata Indicom Mobile Connection
3. A Titan Fastrack Watch
4. And lots of other Goodiess..

I hope next year, our team qualifies and both the participants are present on stage and they win the regional finals and then win the National Finals as well.

Till then

Hello
This is something i found funny.

Early morning during homeroom, children were made to stand as they did not have ties.
There was this one guy in particular who did not have a tie and the whiteness of his shirt was opposite to the whiteness of his trousers.

Mr. Mohit Dey: Varun Vasudevan, ghar mein tide hai?
Varun Vasudevan: Sir, tie?
MD: Tide.
VV: Tie?
MD: abey T-I-D-E!
VV: achhhaaa.. haan sir hai.
MD: toh phir kapde dho le na.. nahin toh yellow ho jayenge.

2. Due to the protests against the sealings, theres a lot going on in Delhi. I was going around telling people that whole of Delhi is on fire.

Gursartaj: Delhi is on fire.
Adarsh Ramakrishnan: I didnt do it

Hello friends.
It has been a long time since I posted something textual.
Anyways
It has been a year for our french trip.
Everything is still fresh in my brain as I think about it.
365 days ago, at this very moment, we were loitering in Angouleme shouting and screaming and singing and racing through the streets. Siddharth managed to screw up my camera but it was ok. The day we went for the concert and had to sit outside because the music was horrible. The day I saved abhinaya from Thibault. The day my temporary bronchitis started off after taking in too much smoke. The day we went bowling. The day we also played video games in which I clearly beat Siddharth. The day I consumed a good quantity of Pate.

The day shall not be forgotten, at least for now

New stuff

2006-04-07T21:27:00.000+05:30

I have purchased the 30 GB iPod and JBL Onstage speakers.. excellent sound quality

The Tribune, Saturday, 1st April 2006

2006-04-02T19:46:00.000+05:30

The following was an article published in Saturday Extra, written by Khushwant Singh

It’s all gas

Scholars pick up odd subjects for research; the oddest Ihave ever heard of is the incidence of flatulence:what causes it; what are its constituents and risks involved in exposing oneself to it.

One such field survey has been recently carried out, appropriately in the region popularly called the underside of the earth — Australia and New Zealand.

Breaking wind or farting as it is commonly known is too delicate a subject to be discussed in polite society.

Nevertheless, our Sanskrit-speaking ancestors drew up a list of their varieties from Uttam padvi (the best kind) to Gupt daan (silent, stinking gift). Arabs regarded it as a social sin and ostracised men and women who did it in public.

On the other hand, there was a Frenchman who made his living blowing off a candle from a foot’s distance by a violent expulsion of wind from his derriere.

A newspaper clipping from an Australian daily sent to me by a friend living there summarises his findings. Both men and women break wind on an average of 14 times in 24 hours; wind-producing foods include beans, cabbage, cheese, eggs and fizzy drinks; a fart comprises 59 per cent nitrogen, 20 per cent hydrogen, 9 per cent carbondioxide 7 per cent methane and 4 per cent oxygen. They can travel at a speed of three metres per second. What makes some farts stink is hydrogen sulphide which contains sulphur and is less than 1 per cent of its constituents. It is believed to be inflammable. Research scholars are testing it by putting match sticks close to their ends to see it is correct. Setting one’s bum on fire is a small price to pay for discovering the truth.

drowning ipods

2006-03-27T21:13:00.000+05:30

Well Hello again
Like I mentioned in one of my previous posts, Mornings in school tend towards being interesting(Limt morning --> interesting). There was a certain very stupid girl(reason shall be understood later) who was talking to Mohit about her ipod in the morning today. At first I thought she was just like any other person taking Tech Support from Mohit but he later explained that she had managed to put her ipod down the toilet.

I am not saying that ipods are bad, they are very good, then why put them in the toilet. And HOW?. How did she manage to put it down there. Well as Mohit later explained, she had put it on the water container(the one used to store water to flush), and it slid down into the toilet bowl. Then she calls him up to ask him what to do. WHAT THE HELL WOULD YOU DO IF YOUR IPOD FALLS IN THE TOILET. get a bloody plastic bag, put it over your hand, and take the fugger out. What else?.

Next, Mohit told her to keep it under a heat source and let it dry in the hope that it will work. Well, her ipod didnt work. HELLOOO!!!.. even if the ipod survived drowning in the water, it probably did not survive the shit bacteria in there.

Anyways, this conversation was followed by a detailed discussion over drowned electronics' items. Mohit, has had many such experiences(but nothing went down there!) and each time his things worked. Fortunately, I take care of things like this and nothing of the sort has happened to me. Though I do remember someone telling me about his cellphone. His cellphone got wet, and he put it in the microwave to dry. Smart thinking my friend. End result, his cellphone blew up.

Yellow!
First and foremost, I would like to announce that I have officially passed class 11 and I think I am second in my class or something like that but who cares. I have passed with decent marks, that is all I will say about them.

Class 12, is very much like class 10, for a very simple reason that it is the board year and teachers just want to teach from first day onwards as they dont want to waste any time. I am not against that but nobody teaches on the first day, you are supposed to have the usual introductions. Not fair.
My Teachers:-

Class Teacher- Mr. Mohit Dey- Also the Computer Teacher
As Siddhanth would have put it, "Dude hai yaar". Mohit Sir is a pretty cool teacher. Firstly, you get lots of free periods. He has a certain weekly target to achieve and if that target is achieved, you get free periods. Secondly, he can answer practically any question you put towards him, which basically means that he knows the subject well. Thirdly, He always understands when you tell him that you have to go to the Egurufool Lab.
English- Take a Wild guess????..
Yup, Ms. Vanita Sehgal
Description- LOL
Maths- Mr. Tijo Jacob
He is also like Mohit Sir, always in a cool mood. His maths classes are fairly interesting as compared to last year when a maths period meant third degree torture. I have a feeling maths is going to be interesting this year
Chemistry- Mr. S. Sharma
I think his first name is Sachinder, but we have been told to call him Mr. S. Sharma as he doesnt like people playing with his name. Chemistry tends to be boring at times
Physics- Ms. Vandana Marwah
Today was the first class, cant say much about it.

Gay movies, Oscars, swallowing flies, etc...

2006-03-08T22:25:00.000+05:30

Hello friends
Mornings before exams are exceptionally interesting, there is noise all around but its the kind of noise which can be compared to silence, silence before something big, like the lull before the storm. Everybody is studying, except for a few. I have this policy of not studying right till the point the exam does not begin and hence I can be seen with an issue of TopGear in my hand when everybody has a big fat Pradeep's. The above-mentioned few include me, Dhruv, and a few others.

Today we had english, and I dont think you need to study for that right before your exam. Its a good thing that we now get a preparatory leave for English, cause one can sit back, relax and play games. I, for one, started my course at around 3:00 PM, was done by around 8:30. Yes, that is long, but yea well, I take my time.

Anyways, the morning was fun today as we were talking about the Oscars. Since I dont get any Star Movies anymore, I happened to miss them but I dont think I missed much. There was Ben Stiller trying to act like a cross between Adam Sandler and Nelly, didn't do a very good job at it though. Then there was the much talked about Gay movie Brokeback Mountain. I wonder how anyone came up with an idea like that, I'm glad it didnt win the oscar. We were then joined by Adarsh who was giving his valuable inputs when Siddarth said,"I dont like these movies with one word names"
Me: Crash
Dhruv: Cellular
Adarsh: PHONE BOOTH
(And you all probably guessed how we mustve laughed at that)
And then Adarsh began counting the number of words in that and it dawned upon him that Phone Booth are indeed two different words
The laugh was so bad that Dhruv swallowed a fly, which was followed by an even bigger burst of laughter and Dhruvs sudden change in voice after that delicious little fly. I think he has been much affected by the bird flu and since he can not live without non veg food, moving on to flies now... sweet!!
And just about then, the Shepherd(read Alinda Holla) came and asked us all to move to our classes.
The exam was utterly boring. I was expecting something not too long but due to the extremely boring nature of the paper, I was forced to finish my paper at about 11:00 with no time left for sleeping, hmph. I must congratulate the English Department on how they surprise us with the ever-increasing level of stupidity of the papers. Plus, Literature was 40 marks,'Nuff said.

That done, I moved to my bus and finally finished this months TopGear.
Looking forward to Computers

Torn Apart

2006-03-04T13:16:00.000+05:30

In simpler words "Phat Gayi".
So was my state uptil about 1215PM after which I realised that my paper went decent.

After every exam(Barring English), you can classify the students into two groups, those whose exam went extremely well, and those whose exam sucked. Today(Maths), I could see more people around me who belonged to the second group, and I, as a matter of fact, belonged to the same group uptil about the time I mentioned above.

It was a very lengthy paper, it wasnt taking the name of finishing, or khatam hone ka naam hi nahin le raha tha. I was progressing decently though. But the thing was, by around 11:00, I had 3 questions amounting to a total of 14 marks left. I had no idea how to do them and I didnt think I was going to get any ideas. But I still kept trying. 11:10, 1 down, the other 2 didnt seem to want to go down though. Still 10 marks left, what do we do.
Advice: When you are in such a situation, and if all else fails, actually you would be in this situation if all else failed, just keep looking at your question paper and try to visualise the question.
So at 11:10, it suddenly struck me. 11:13, 2 down, I had given up on the last one. I was sitting waiting for the bell to ring. 11:15, sardar's dimaag works again. I asked for the sheet at 11:15, and instead of giving me the sheet, Mr. Anil K dot Verma decided to give me his weird look, everyone else was giving me a weird look too because NOBODY ASKS FOR A SHEET THE MINUTE THE EXAM IS SUPPOSED TO GET OVER. If I had detachable eyes, I wouldve given the look to myself.
Anyways, somehow managed to complete my paper, I dont like it when I have to leave questions like that.

After the very traumatic last 15 minutes, I obviously thought my paper went badly. My first words after finishing the paper were, " Phat Gayi ", as were everyone elses. Nobody was greeting anyone, you could see it on their faces. Nobody said hi, just "phati?" or "lagi?".
And then there was Rhea. She was standing there like a statue, and then went into this weird trance and started shaking everyone around while screaming "40.. 40.. 40". Ah, well, atleast shes getting more than she expected.

Even while coming back, I was either discussing the paper or exclaiming,"Phat Gayi Yaar". I think I said that about 11 times, but whos counting.
At about 12:15PM, a very insightful person asked me the reason why I was so bothered when my paper went left. Very insightful indeed. And the next few minutes, until I reached home, were spent in talking about cars, and TV shows.

Anyways, Im happy Maths is over.

A Cokey Concoction - I

2006-02-28T21:44:00.000+05:30

Hello Friends
Februaries are awfully short months and their shortness is realised only when exams approach. You set your time table(If you do) for finishing the course thinking Feb to be a normal 31 day month but its only towards the end that you realise that you're actually 3 days short. This can cost you, specially if you have boards coming up.

Anyways, Moving to DPSRKP.
You know when you're in Class XI, and you have science, you have practicals before exams. You also have practicals when you're in class 10 but they are nothing, just a formality.
I was asked to define photosynthesis in my bio practicals last year, something that we've been learning since class 3.
Yes, so my point is that Class XI practicals are practicals, you actually have to perform experiments. And if you happen to be like me or dhruv kumar for that matter, youre in trouble mister.
Me- Never attended any Chemistry Practicals before half yearlies and never attended any Physics practicals after half yearlies. In my defence, I do things one step at a time.
Dhruv Kumar- He went a step further, never attended any practicals.

What happened in the Practicals then, you might ask
Chemistry

Salt Analysis- Well I did all the tests for cations and anions twice, and each time it turned out to be something else. And unless your some person with some super nasal abilities, it is kind of hard to detect ammonia. One more thing, never pour concentrated H2SO4 in a test tube and hold it without a test tube holder, it gets kind of hot.
Titration- Since I never attended any of the classes when titrations were performed, I didnt quite manage to do it right, but who cares, I wrote rubbish there.
Chemistry Labs have this weird ability to make you forget everything you tried to memorise, which was very much the case with me. This fact is also strengthened when you see 3 teachers and 2 lab asses around you, all chemists. They have this weird look on their face, like theyre gonna pour Acid over you and then quickly neutralise that with a base and take concordant readings, and then calculate Normality(The teachers are hardly normal). But, then again, Lab Asses are good people
The Viva was another classic moment. The teacher asked me 3 questions, I didnt quite know all the answers and then let me loose. In my defence, it was the chem lab.

Physics

The experiment in Physics were quite easy, specially because two people were performing it together and there was no problem writing all the stuff we were supposed to.
Viva- I very confidently gave answers to the questions I knew, to the ones I didnt know, I tried making stories, but its hard when you have this short fat man with spectacles looking at you with a weird grin on his face.

Computers- Saving the best for last

Alright, so everyone probably knows that I am comp geek. We had 3 hours for the practical. I finished the questions in about 10 mins and then I had to sit there and wait for the teacher to take my viva. A word of advice: Never finish your question early, act like its real tough and you dont know anything(Not if your an exunite). Anyways, my viva was like some courtroom drama, Anita Rathi, she was asking question after question and many didnt even make sense at all. Our Computer Teacher, Mr. Mohit Dey, just checked my practical file, without even looking at it. Everything was over in about 25 minutes and the rest of the day was spent in playing basketball. Oh, and I got full in comp pracs, but then again whos counting?

Well Thats about it about my practicals. Another post coming up

Just a filler

2006-02-20T13:12:00.000+05:30

Hello Friends
Just wanted to post something here today as the month of February had been completely empty.
Nothing much has happened since my last post though. Since the beginning of February, school had been in 6th gear to finish the syllabus.. and by that I mean finishing around 5 chapters in PCM, within 2 weeks.
Apparently, I was enjoying all of this, which is not a very good thing. To elucidate, I was enjoying finishing the syllabus even though I was not enjoying being in school.
Valentines day came and then it went, I had to cancel all my dates(I had 2) because I was too sleepy.
Last Thursday(the day of muharram) was spent in fever and watching Rang De Basanti. Rang De Basanti is a good and different movie, not the average Karan Johar-Gay, Shah Rukh Khan, Huge Star Cast, Shooting outside India.
The thing that separated RDB from all the other movies was the fact that it brought out the truth. For example, When the Minister was shot, the news people talked about involvement of foreign terrorists and shit like that. The media I tell you... I shall do a media bashing thing after the exams. Another thing in RDB was that there were no music scenes in meadows, and running around trees.. THank you Lord. Plus, we all know of the very nice vocabulary the guys use in the movie.

On a sad note, Bird Flu has hit India, which basically means, no Butter Chicken and Garlic Naan(I hope the certain someone is reading this) twice a week... SHIT!... Such is life.

My practical exams commence on Wednesday and Finish on Friday. Exams start next Saturday. This time I am going to be truly, purely screwed, no doubts about that.

OHH.. One more thing. I am going to make a movie after the exams. Its basically the story of Five Point Someone(yes, that book). Im looking for people who have handycams to lend and people whove read the book and ready to act in the movie.
I need 2 fat guys, 1 utterly boring person(with a monotonous voice), One dude, one girl(she need not be very hot, but she need not be the exact opposite of that either), and rest roles ill see.
So Happy Fishing

Wear Sunscreen- Baz Luhrmann

2006-01-30T21:03:00.000+05:30

Ladies and Gentlemen of the class of ’99
If I could offer you only one tip for the future, sunscreen would be
it. The long term benefits of sunscreen have been proved by
scientists whereas the rest of my advice has no basis more reliable
than my own meandering
experience…I will dispense this advice now.

Enjoy the power and beauty of your youth; oh nevermind; you will not
understand the power and beauty of your youth until they have faded.
But trust me, in 20 years you’ll look back at photos of yourself and
recall in a way you can’t grasp now how much possibility lay before
you and how fabulous you really looked….You’re not as fat as you
imagine.

Don’t worry about the future; or worry, but know that worrying is as
effective as trying to solve an algebra equation by chewing
bubblegum. The real troubles in your life are apt to be things that
never crossed your worried mind; the kind that blindside you at 4pm
on some idle Tuesday.

Do one thing everyday that scares you

Sing

Don’t be reckless with other people’s hearts, don’t put up with
people who are reckless with yours.

Floss

Don’t waste your time on jealousy; sometimes you’re ahead, sometimes
you’re behind…the race is long, and in the end, it’s only with
yourself.

Remember the compliments you receive, forget the insults; if you
succeed in doing this, tell me how.

Keep your old love letters, throw away your old bank statements.

Stretch

Don’t feel guilty if you don’t know what you want to do with your
life…the most interesting people I know didn’t know at 22 what they
wanted to do with their lives, some of the most interesting 40 year
olds I know still don’t.

Get plenty of calcium.

Be kind to your knees, you’ll miss them when they’re gone.

Maybe you’ll marry, maybe you won’t, maybe you’ll have children,maybe
you won’t, maybe you’ll divorce at 40, maybe you’ll dance the funky
chicken on your 75th wedding anniversary…what ever you do, don’t
congratulate yourself too much or berate yourself either – your
choices are half chance, so are everybody else’s. Enjoy your body,
use it every way you can…don’t be afraid of it, or what other people
think of it, it’s the greatest instrument you’ll ever
own..

Dance…even if you have nowhere to do it but in your own living room.

Read the directions, even if you don’t follow them.

Do NOT read beauty magazines, they will only make you feel ugly.

Get to know your parents, you never know when they’ll be gone for
good.

Be nice to your siblings; they are the best link to your past and the
people most likely to stick with you in the future.

Understand that friends come and go,but for the precious few you
should hold on. Work hard to bridge the gaps in geography and
lifestyle because the older you get, the more you need the people you
knew when you were young.

Live in New York City once, but leave before it makes you hard; live
in Northern California once, but leave before it makes you soft.

Travel.

Accept certain inalienable truths, prices will rise, politicians will
philander, you too will get old, and when you do you’ll fantasize
that when you were young prices were reasonable, politicians were
noble and children respected their elders.

Respect your elders.

Don’t expect anyone else to support you. Maybe you have a trust fund,
maybe you have a wealthy spouse; but you never know when either one
might run out.

Don’t mess too much with your hair, or by the time you're 40, it will
look 85.

Be careful whose advice you buy, but, be patient with those who
supply it. Advice is a form of nostalgia, dispensing it is a way of
fishing the past from the disposal, wiping it off, painting over the
ugly parts and recycling it for more than
it’s worth.

But trust me on the sunscreen…

School.. c'est tres boring

2006-01-10T21:40:00.000+05:30

Yello there
Like the title says, School is very boring these days.
As one would normally expect with a new year, something new but unfortunately its the same old grind. Nothing is interesting at all.
And it doesnt get any better with our rep coming in everyday and reminding us that we 42 days and counting left for class 12. I always hate it when that happens. In class 10, all year round one is reminded of the fact that it is ze Board year and one should concentrate. To an extent, I would agree but 10th is the last year to partay if you want to get good results in 11th and 12th. Besides, one can always study in the last 2 months and get respectable marks. This is not what i did though. I partayed and concentrated, in equilibrium.
Anyways,
The only subjects that I seem to want to attend are Computers*, English and somewhat Physics.
*Today, I was the first one to complete a program in less than 5 lines.. wooohoooo..

English isnt too bad either. Its the only class where a teacher keeps the whole class interested. Today, she brought us.. Yes Vanita Sehgal brought us chocolates in return for the gift we gave her for her belated birthday. By the way, did I tell you we have a Birthday Club amongst the many other stupid clubs in our class? We collect money and get gifts for all our teachers and get cards for the students.. WOOHOOO. Bet you guys arent that privileged.

And yes, coming to the reason why I dont feel like attending Maths or Chemistry. Well Maths, nobody would want to attend a Maths class if they have the teacher that we have. The Reason: shes so boring. She finishes 3 exercises on an average in one period and shes gone to a maximum of 5.
Well Chem, I dont even feel like writing about her.

Other than that, I dont see what is there in school. All 12thies and 10thies have their exams, which basically leaves me with very few people to interact with.

2006-01-01T16:24:00.000+05:30

Well Hello there

A very happy new year to all of you.

Whaddaya know? My blogs not dead after all!

It’s been a long year, and it’s been a good year. As a matter of fact, its been my best year so far. Lot has happened this past one year. I, as a student of class 10, took my board exams and passed class 10. I now have an academic qualification to add to my resume.

I went to France, to spend the best 14 days of my life ever. I met some exceptionally great people, the French ones and the ones here (I shall talk about the ones from here later). I also had great food which included Duck, and not to forget Pâté. Basically, like I have already said, the best 14 days of my life.

Coming back from France, the very same day, I was ahem.. greeted by my Board Result which was good. So yes, France is a lucky charm!

I then entered Class 11, 11-J to be more precise. The only person I knew(when I entered it) was Siddharth Nangia, who happened to be with us during the French Trip. I still cant stop laughing at Siddharth holding up a banner which read 11-J in BIG BOLD LETTERS, and in Times New Roman Font Face, which had been handed to him by none other than our very own class teacher, Mr. Anil K. Verma. Our Class Teacher is a class apart, he like to keep the ball Rawling.

Class 11-J doesn’t quite seem like a class of 16 year olds, but this can be only experienced when you listen to the utterly crappy jokes of GP and Co.

Anyways,

Class 11 is quite tiresome and kicks you in the butt and makes class 10 feel like cakewalk. I joined Fiitjee on 6^th August and have never enjoyed a Weekend since then. Small Price to pay when your goal is IIT. Class 11, contrary to popular belief, is not the year to partay. And if you think it is the year to partay, and if you do manage to partay through it, have a look at your report card.

The only way you can have fun in class 11 is if you are an Exun Member, or a classmate of an Exun Member. It sure was fun sneaking out of Maths Class when we did not feel like studying.

It is also fun telling a teacher like Ms. Vanita Sehgal that she doesn’t have the brains to read Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy(It aint my fault she didn’t get find it funny)

Nonetheless, School did seem nice this past one year. I met some great people in school, strengthened some old friendships, and had a blast my own little way (sneaking out of class and playing H2G2)

The exceptionally great people from school that I met over the past one year, are exceptionally great. They changed my view of not believing in the concept of having friends because you need them and its cool to have them around to share your joys and sorrows (oh the clichés). But, I did share my joys and sorrows with them.

I made lots of Friends, yes I mean real friends. Mostly by bugging them in the Egurucool Lab(We exunites just call it DA LAB) when they were trying to work, print a magazine, print their reccos, print their forms, print anything. I also made friends by stealing pens during MUN.

These guys and gals have helped me get through this academically tormenting year. Thanks y’all!

The sad thing is, most of them are going to pass out of school this march. Sad. But, Life goes on.

EXUN. Exun is an essential part of my school life and being a member always has its benefits. You are automatically sent to DA LAB to take a print out of anything. The computer teacher(at least Mr. Dey) doesn’t say anything to you for missing his classes. I cant imagine life without EXUN. This year saw the tenth year for Exun, the symposium and what better way to celebrate than to make the greatest Intro Video ever. And im not joking. Its not everyday you hear people say, “Ahhh!.. so that’s why they got Sony as their Sponsor”. Certainly, we are the experts.

MUN was another fun thing. Much more fun than last year, particularly because I got to miss my FIITJEE class and be there all the three days. This year, I held the post of the USG – Information and Computer Services and yes its fun being that. I did manage to scare this little kid at Eatopia when he saw me with my big head(because of the turban on). I have already mentioned how I made friends here.

In the year 2005, I was also offered the Singapore International Airlines(SIA) Youth Scholarship to pursue my pre-university(year 11 and 12) level education in one of Singapore’s top ranking Junior Colleges. I, however declined it. I wanted to go but my parents voted against it. Ahh, Such is life. But Life Goes on.

I also happened to witness the Scribbler’s Day where about a thousand dipsites of class 12 are released in the football field and they write all sorts of messages on each others shirts because its their last day as normal dipsites after which they must study for their exams. Sad. But life goes on.

I shall miss you guys, thanks for making this year worthwhile for me.

As I bid goodbye(or as I already have) to this great year, I hope that this new year brings the same challenges and joys and people. Now I understand why being 16, is what it is. Id rather be 16 till I die. But nonetheless, I am going to be 17, which by any means is old. Also, this shall be my last year as an exunite, and as a dipsite. Sad. But life Goes on.

D-Day!

2005-11-07T21:14:00.001+05:30

Hello friends
School resumed today. We all had to wear our winter uniform for the very simple reason that winters are approaching, and its going to be cold. Winter hasnt exactly set in, and its just a bit cold, but we still had people wearing undershirts, a sleeveless sweater, a blazer above that. And yes, these people were also seen to be wearing spectacles, the kinds that Jassi used to wear. But then there were people who simply didnt know about the winter uniform or just didnt bother enough to buy any.
Oh did I tell you, I bought Nike Jordan Team Handlez.

Anyways, today was the day we got our results, and most of pretty much.. ahem.. you get my point dont you?. I managed an 88%, and I am third in my class.

On a french note, France has officially been fed to the dogs, with 10 straight nights of riots, I cant see the land of love go down.. Somebody do something!!!!

Theres nothing much to say

Have you noticed something?

2005-11-06T22:35:00.000+05:30

Hello People
I cant seem to think of anything to write these days, heavy writers block.
Anyways,
Have you noticed something about some hollywood movies, the mushy romantic comedy type ones. It's always the guy running after the woman forever and then he says something and then the woman decides to go away and then she stops talking to him and then when shes leaving the guy does/ says something really sweet after running after her for miles and then hes on his knees. This just makes the woman go awwwww and then she starts crying(very woman-like) and then they both hug and then they live happily ever after.
I have a question to ask. If the guy can make the woman change her thoughts about moving, by saying/doing all that stuff, how come we men are called inexpressive?
Anyways, these movies are nice to watch. The tooth fairy is with me when i say that.
A few movies you could catch: Along came Polly, Cant hardly wait, how to lose a guy in 10 days, etc..
Thats me for now
Same place, sometime in the near future

Doesn't Remind Me - Audioslave

2005-10-27T22:37:00.000+05:30

I never was an audioslave fan but I specially liked the video of this song

I walk the streets of Japan till I get lost
Cause it doesn’t remind me of anything
With a graveyard tan carrying a cross
Cause it doesn’t remind me of anything
I like studying faces in a parking lot
Cause it doesn’t remind me of anything
I like driving backwards in the fog
Cause it doesn’t remind me of anything

Chorus
The things that I’ve loved the things that I’ve lost
The things I’ve held sacred that I’ve dropped
I won’t lie no more you can bet
I don’t want to learn what I’ll need to forget

I like gypsy moths and radio talk
Cause it doesn’t remind me of anything
I like gospel music and canned applause
Cause it doesn’t remind me of anything
I like colorful clothing in the sun
Cause it doesn’t remind me of anything
I ilke hammering nails and speaking in tongues
Cause it doesn’t remind me of anything

Chorus
The things that I’ve loved the things that I’ve lost
The things I’ve held sacred that I’ve dropped
I won’t lie no more you can bet
I don’t want to learn what I’ll need to forget

Bend and shape me
I love the way you are
Slow and sweetly
Like never before
Calm and sleeping
We won’t stir up the past
So descretely
We won’t look back

Chorus
The things that I’ve loved the things that I’ve lost
The things I’ve held sacred that I’ve dropped
I won’t lie no more you can bet
I don’t want to learn what I’ll need to forget

I like throwing my voice and breaking guitars
Cause it doesn’t remind me of anything
I like playing in the sand what’s mine is ours
If it doesn’t remind me of anything

Try catching the video if u can

Of Sardars

2005-10-21T22:18:00.000+05:30

Hello people
Heres what I got in my inbox sent to me by Ridhi Kapur

---mail begins here---
I was standing at jalandhar station when my attention went towards
a Sikh youth standing near me wearing a Black turban having a long
beard and wearing a kirpan over his shirt looking similar to a
terrorist.
After a while, one local train arrived, which was totally packed.
The Sikh youth tried to alight the train but failed to do so. Just
then a voice was heard from the back coach 'Sardarji Barah Baj
gaye' (Sir it's 12 o'clock!)
The Sikh youth looked over at that voice maker who was a young
Mischievous type of person and instead of showing any anger made a
smile towards him.
The smile made was so enigmatic that it seemed as if some type of
truth lies behind it. Not able to resist my temptation, I walked
towards him and asked why did he smile at that person who teased
him.* **The Sikh youth replied,
'He was not teasing me but was asking for my Help'*. I was
surprised with these words and he told me that there was a big
history behind that which one should know. I was eager to know the
History and the Sikh youthnarrated:
During 17th Century, when Hindustan was ruled by Mughals, all the
Hindu people were humiliated and were treated like animals. Mughals
treated the Hindu women as there own property and were forcing all
Hindus to accept
Islam and even used to kill the people if they were refusing to
accept.Thattime, our ninth Guru, Sri Guru Teg Bahadarji came
forward,in response to a request of some Kashmir Pandits to fight
against all these cruel activities.
Guruji told the Mughal emperor that if he could succeed in
converting him to Islam, all the Hindus would accept the same.
But, if he failed, he should stop all those activities . The
Mughal emperor happily agreed to that but even after lots of
torture to Guruji and his fellow members he failed to convert him
to Islam and Guruji along with his other four fellow members, were
tortured and sacrificed their lives in Chandni Chowk. Since the
Mughals were unable to convert them to Islam they were
assassinated.

Thus Guruji sacrificed his life for the protection of Hindu
religion. Can anybody lay down his life and that too for the
protection of another religion? This is the reason he is still
remembered* **as "Hind Ki Chaddar"*, shield of India. For the
sake of whom he had sacrificed his life, none Of the them came
forward to lift his body, fearing that they would also be
assassinated
Seeing this incident our 10th Guruji, Sri Guru Gobind Singhji (Son
of Guru Teg Bahadarji) founder of khalsa made a resolution that he
would convert his followers to such human beings who would not be
able to hide themselves and could be easily located in thousands.
At the start, the Sikhs were very few in numbers as they were
fighting against the Mughal emperors. At that time,Nadir Shah
raided Delhi in the year 1739 and looted Hindustan and was carrying
lot of Hindustan treasures and nearly 2200 Hindu women along with
him. The news spread like a fire and was heard by Sardar Jassa
Singh who was the Commander of the Sikh army at that time. He
decided to attack Nadir Shah's Kafila on the same midnight. He did
so and rescued all the Hindu women and they were safely sent to
their homes.
It didn't happen only once but thereafter whenever any Abdaalis or
Iranis had attacked and looted Hindustan and were trying to carry
the treasures and Hindu women along with them for selling them in
Abdal markets, the Sikh army although fewer in numbers but were
brave hearted and attacked them at midnight,12 O'clock and rescued
women.
After that time when there occurred a similar incidence, people
started to contact the Sikh army for their help and Sikhs used to
attack the raider's at Midnight, 12 O'clock.* **Nowadays, these
"smart people" and some Sikh enemies who are afraid of Sikhs, have
spread these words that at 12 O'clock, the Sikhs **go out of their
senses*.
This historic fact was the reason which made me smile over that
person as I thought that his Mother or Sister would be in trouble
and wants my help and was reminding me by saying off 'Sardarji
Barah Baj Gaye'
Plz do forward this mail to all ur friends so they can know about
sikh history &* its a humble appeal PLEASE dont make fun of
RELIGIONS ! as every religion is as pure as urs.*
---mail end----

With the large number of religions in our country, respect all of them, I know my friends respect mine.

Saddam Hussein

Hello people
I have a Computer Exam tomorrow and contrary to popular belief, I did study for it.
I was watching Saddam's Trial today. It was quite funny.

Heres the Link

What I like about him is that even after losing all that he had, he still has total control over himself and most of all, still has Self Respect, which, by the way, matters the most.

That's all I had to say

Amelie

2005-10-13T22:07:00.000+05:30

Hello people
Hers something I could scoop up on Amelie

Quotes:
Amélie: It's better to help people than garden gnomes

Georgette: Vive la France.

Narrator: Amélie still seeks solitude. She amuses herself with silly questions about the world below, such as "How many people are having an orgasm right now?"

Raymond Dufayel aka Glass Man: So, my little Amélie, you don't have bones of glass. You can take life's knocks. If you let this chance pass, eventually, your heart will become as dry and brittle as my skeleton. So, go get him, for Pete's sake!

Amélie Poulain: At least you'll never be a vegetable - even artichokes have hearts.

[Amélie hands a begger some money]
Beggar: Sorry madam, I don't work on Sundays.

Old Man at the Two Windmills: Still, true love does exist.
Suzanne, Owner Two Windmills bar: I know. After 30 years behind a bar, I'm an expert. I'll even give you the recipe. Take two regulars, mix them together and let them stew. It never fails.

Bretodeau, The Box Man: Time's funny. When you're a kid, it passes slowly, and next thing you're fifty and your childhood fits into a rusty little box.

Trivia:

The photo booth picture collection is based on a real collection created by a friend of director Jean-Pierre Jeunet. He is credited during the ending credits ("D'après la collection originale de Michel Folco"). A faux photo booth picture collection was created for the film, so that the rights to the real collection did not have to be purchased.

Jean-Pierre Jeunet originally started collecting the stories and memories that make up the story in 1974.

Yann Tiersen was not the original lineup for the soundtrack. Jean-Pierre Jeunet heard the song for the first time while he was being driven to the shooting location.

The one-legged man tap dancing on the TV clip is 'Sam 'Peg Leg' Jackson' , a blues singer

The traveling gnome was inspired a rash of similar pranks played out in England and France in the 1990s. In 1997, a French court convicted the leader of Front de Libération des Nains de Jardins (Garden Gnome Liberation Front) of stealing over 150 gnomes. The idea was later used in an advertising campaign for an Internet travel agency.

Boulevard of Broken Dreams?

2005-10-13T19:25:00.000+05:30

Not quite!!
hello friends
Heres my parody of Boulevard of Broken Dreams.. Although I must warn you.. Its really sad.

I walk a lonely road
The only one that I have ever known
Don't know were it goes
But its home to me and I walk alone

I walk this empty street
On the Boulevard of broken dreams
Where the city sleeps
And I'm the only one and I walk alone

I walk alone
I walk alone
I walk alone
I walk a...

My shadows the only one that walks beside me
My shallow hearts the only thing that's beating
Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me
Till then I walk alone

Ah-Ah Ah-Ah Ah-Ah Ahhh
Ah Ah-Ah Ah-Ah Ah-Ah

I'm walking down the line
That divides me somewhere in my mind
On the border line of the edge
And were I walk alone

Read between the lines of what's
Fucked up and every things all right
Check my vital signs to know I'm still alive
And I walk alone

I walk alone
I walk alone
I walk alone
I walk a...

My shadows the only one that walks beside me
My shallow hearts the only thing that's beating
Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me
Till then I walk alone

Ah-Ah Ah-Ah Ah-Ah Ahhh
Ah Ah-Ah Ah-Ah

I walk alone
I walk a...

I had a shiny hose
The only one that I have ever known
I know where it blows
But its lent to me and I wore cologne

I walk this empty street
On the Boulevard of stolen creams
Where the kitty sleeps
And I'm the only one and I wore cologne

I wore cologne
I wore cologne
I wore cologne
I wore c.

My dog is the only one that walks beside me
My smelly fart’s the only thing that's beating
Sometimes I wish someone out there will smell it
Till then I wore cologne

Ah-Ah Ah-Ah Ah-Ah Ahhh
Ah Ah-Ah Ah-Ah Ah-Ah

I'm walking down the line
That hides me somewhere in my hind
On the broader line of the wedge
And where I wore cologne

Read between the lines of what's
Fucked up and every things all right
Check my vital glands to know I'm still alive
And I wore cologne

I wore cologne
I wore cologne
I wore cologne
I wore c.

My dog is the only one that walks beside me
My smelly fart’s the only thing that's beating
Sometimes I wish someone out there will smell it
Till then I wore cologne

Ah-Ah Ah-Ah Ah-Ah Ahhh
Ah Ah-Ah Ah-Ah

I wore cologne
I wore c.

Sorry for the torture but I am really bored and wanted to do something. Its not my fault, Its all because of IITJEE

France is back!

2005-10-12T15:37:00.001+05:30

Hello Friends.

Well, you guessed it. France is back.

I've been holding this entry back for quite a while for basically 2 reasons:
1) I never found the time to post
2) I know you guys are already fed up of france.
Well
Yes, the reason I am posting about France is that its just virtually impossible for me to forget about France. I mean everything I see around me just reminds me of France.eg-

1) Jerk it out- The song. Lola just loved this song. She kept humming it around and when we went to her place on the last day, this song was placed after every 2 songs.

2) Cigarettes- Yes, as much as I hate smoke, everytime I see the fore mentioned thing, France comes back.

3) Movies- These days, every movie seems to be picturized in France. I was seeing this movie today itself which had all the monuments of Paris that we had visited. I personally love Montmartre, I find it pretty romantic.

4) Songs- Yea well, I've been listening to a lot of French songs lately, which have been sent to me by none other than my french friends.

5) Amelie - The movie. I love it so much that I have even downloaded the movie. It is picturized in Paris and I love it.

6) People- When I see the people around me, I cant help but remember all my french friends. I dont like the environment I am living in, I dont like the people I have to put up with, Zat is why I remember all my french friends, who didn't give a blasted rockets used up fuel who I was.

7) I cant remember the rest of the things but I assure you, anything I see, my brain tries its best to associate it with france.

Well coming to the reason why I love France so much?

I have probably mentioned most of them above. Well, for one, I was totally carefree in France because I had just given my boards and was totally free. But here, dont ask me how much I hate my life. Also, I just love the way the french people are. I mean, not even in India would a stranger family treat you as your own kid. But Les BORYSKO were just Family in France.

For some particular reason that I dont know, I was not at all affected when we were leaving Angouleme but now when I look back, I miss the people so much.

Mainu lae chaleeee...

Gudi aakhda jogia jhoot bolen
Ve Kaun Vichhde Yaar Milavandaee

Goodbye! my friends Goodbye!

Thats Delphine for you again

Also, everyone seems to be going to France these days. There was Swati Maam who was in france for the past 3 months, she returned last week. People from my sis' College have gone to France to study. There was this woman from some DU college who got a one year scholarship in INSA(i think). Urmila Matondkar is in France. help me!!!!!!! or just take me!!!!!!

My life nowadays can be best described by the following lines from Ode to the West Wind

I fall upon the thorns of life! I bleed!
A heavy weight of hours has chain'd and bow'd

Yes so thats my state of mind for you.

KARAKAKOU!!!!!!!!
France FOREVER!!!!!!

The Language of Science

2005-10-09T18:20:00.000+05:30

Hello People
You all know that I am a science student and well, it aint easy being one.
Theres this thing around that all that the science students should do is study, which I feel is completely Wrong. Also, some teachers go to such an extent that well, all you can do is just pity yourself
Here are a few examples of how the Language of Science is and how it makes me pity myself

Exhibit A
A chemistry teacher.
Scene: A student in her class is talking.
Teacher: Beta.. Aap itna excited kyon rehte. Excited State se Ground State par aa jayo. Aap Stable ho jaoge.

Exhibit B
Another Chemistry Teacher, this time at FIITJEE
Scene: They normally just remain the same. A student was again talking in his class
Teacher: Aap kya kabhi chup nahin reh sakte. Ek dam radioactive element ki tarah Alpha, Beta, Gamma emission karte rehte ho. Jab kuchh nahin maanga hai tab bhi kar rahe ho. Bahut radioactive ho aap. Aapka Half life, rate of disintegration bahut fast hai.

Exhibit C
Mr. Anil K. Verma
Scene: Explaining Rolling Friction

AKV: Lets take for example... If you have a baby at home*. Take it and measure its weight. Now put the baby over yourself, and Roll(Mind you**, the pronunciation of roll is not role but its the like o in doll) it over yourself. You will feel the baby to be lighter. Thus, Friction sometimes aids in motion

* As if babies are simple commodities to be found in everyones house
**"Mind you", said the way Anil K. Verma says it

Thats about it for now

SCHOOL SUCKS!!!

2005-09-29T20:36:00.000+05:30

Hello people
School life is really bad..
This week has been specially very bad. I havent bunked(ahem.. legally) any period, which is obviously a big achievement.
Every teacher seems to be in a hurry to finish the course. Well, our chemistry teacher for one, went for a good all expense paid vacation to Russia. We never told her to.
Today she took 3 periods. Do you have any idea what studying Chemistry for three periods means?.. In akshay's words "Dimaag ka dahi ban jaata hai".
Also, Today. The day was breakless. One teacher hasnt even left that the other teacher is standing right outside and then the teachers also din leave unless the other teacher came in. So it was sort of a vicious circle.
And then there is maths. The most boring of all. She comes, keeps writing and talking in that monotonous tone of hers and leaves. God, its really hard to stay awake in her class.
Also, shes taking our Library period tomorrow, although with her speed we could finish the whole class 11 syllabus with the time we have left.
anyways
nothing more to say

Harley Owners Group- Case Study

2005-09-18T22:06:00.000+05:30

Harley Davidson

Harley Davidson, one word, Legendary. A pride of thoroughbred horses running on two wheels. The rider, the one in control, the god. Such is the experience offered by the Harley Davidson Automobile. That’s why, on one hand we have the motorcycles and then we have the Harleys.

Neighbour’s Envy, Owner’s pride. The Harley owner just doesn’t own another motorcycle; he owns the most distinct breed of two wheeled horses. The Harley gives one a feeling of superiority. No wonder we have the Harley Owners Group (H.O.G.).

The average Harley Davidson owner is mature and knows his machine and respects it as an individual. His average being around 45 years. I use his and not her because 91% of Harley owners are males. It’s the sense of pride that brings them all together.

Initally, the HOG was present mainly in mainland USA but later spread out throughout USA and when Harley started exporting its motorcycles offshore, the world obviously caught on. No one wanted to miss the Harley experience. The growth, however, was gradual. From USA, the craze spread out to Europe and then in the last decade of the 1900s to Asia.

From Motorcycles to Leather Jackets to Helmets to Gloves to Wallets to Belts et al. You name it they had it. The Enthusiasts spared no useful accessory. And it wasn’t only the owner, the craze was present throughout his family, specially the kids who wanted to dress like little baddies.

With the HOG having a global foothold, it was divided into various chapters for better management. Each chapter, thus, had its own meetings and events but in the true sense, they were one. They organized cross country rallies, races, etc. And that’s not all. Various HOG chapters also organized Charity Auctions, Fund Raising events to help the less fortunate people. Thus showing to the world that they are here to give back what the Harley has given to them. Therefore, proving that they are not a bunch of bad boys as they are thought to be.

The Asian Market was a tough one. Making a mark in the struggling developing nations was a tough task but then does the Harley care? And well you guessed it, they had the Asian market under them too.

Since no road is a rough one for the Harley, it will continue to cruise smoothly anywhere it goes. One never knows, a bunch of crazy HOG members might even ride to the moon (with a little extra help though!) The cult will continue to grow and so will the HOG.

In the words of Robert Frost,”.. I have miles to go before I sleep..” and in my words “.. I have a tankful of fuel to burn..”

I dont care if its not good. I dont even care if you dont like it.

I should be doing MBA

2005-09-18T21:52:00.001+05:30

Hello Friends
I return, with another entry.
Yesterday, I was sitting my sister who was supposed to be doing a quiz herself and writing a 500 word write-up on the Harley Owners Group. But, I ended up doing her quiz and also writing the 500 word write up on Harley Owners Group. Now, the write up is quite justified as I just love automobiles.
Her Quiz though, was fairly easy though my sister didnt know anything and I answered 9 out of 10 questions through the visual clues provided there. It was fun doing it.
And thus I have arrived at the conclusion that I should be doing MBA along with my sister, to say the least.
Anyways I have a chemistry test tomorrow, 1 and a half chapters are coming and I studied for 4 hours, thats all the time I had by the way.

Arre Wah - Part II

2005-09-13T20:14:00.000+05:30

Hello my friends

NEWS FLASH - IIT FORMAT HAS CHANGED

which in simpler words means

WOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!

This is good news for the thousands of IIT aspirants throughout India.

Ok, moving right along..

Today, our school bagged the Overall Runners Up position in E-Spice at DPS NOIDA. We had a total of 198 points and lost it to DPS Vasant Kunj by just 5 points.. gahahhhhhh..
I was first with Abhisheyk in Quiz it Down n Across... woooohooo.. me got a pair of headphones and a nice cool trophy. Ill put up a pic of it later.

But the highlight of the event for DPS R.K.Puram was our Movie Making entry. You see, we didnt register for that event because in short we didnt have an entry. But, since we didnt have an entry, it meant that we couldnt be in the race for the overall trophy. So, at first we thought well give a blank cd and say we submitted the wrong cd. But then, Dhruv and I, went to my place, which is by the way walking distance from DPS NOIDA, and put up something together in 10 mins flat. Burnt it on a cd and submitted. Obviously, we didnt win, we didnt expect to. But it was fun.
heres the link to the video
right click on it and then click on save target/link as
video

But the Downside was that I didnt get any other position. Our web designing didnt go too well. So now, I'm in Web-Design thinking drive.

This was my first trophy of the year, because of my dratted FIITJEE classes on weekends which I cannot miss.

Did I tell you the IIT JEE format has changed?

As you have obviously not noticed, I have added a few more links for you to get reading pleasure out of.

We're supposed to go for a movie tomorrow, or so I believe.

Did I tell you that I have a really nice music collection?.. I should ask Vibhas to take it from me and be DJ for the Carnival and save the school a whole lot of money

Have you noticed the weather?. I'm saying this after a long time but I am actually enjoying the rains primarily because Im not getting wet.

You guys should listen to Cant Help Falling in Love by U2 and Freshman by Verve Pipe

Its Raining Drops.. Hallelujah

Yes so it finally rained.. and it rained well and wasnt telling us how it is when the rain gods are constipated(in case of delhi).. and in case of mumbai, how they always have loose motions

The test wasnt very good.. missed out a 3 mark question. Not exactly missed out, did not know how to do it.

Nothing else has been happening in my life

Abhisheyk Gaur and I, came first in Quiz-Crossword at DPS NOIDA.

Thats all for now

He’s the one
who likes all our pretty songs
And he likes to sing along
And he likes to shoot his gun
But he dont know what it means

2 things i have to say

2005-09-02T21:08:00.000+05:30

There are 2 things I have to say for now:
1. Microsoft is pretty stupid- I dont know whats wrong with the people at Microsoft but they assume that lunch is the only meal there is in 24 hours. This is shown by the absence of Out to Breakfast or Out to Dinner status messages in MSN messenger. What does a person, who just went for dinner, put as his status message.

2. Women who look like witches should not advertise beauty products eg. Shahnaz Hussain

I'm not like them but I can pretend
The sun is gone but I have a light
The day is done but I'm having fun

I think I'm dumb Or maybe just happy
I think I'm Happy

Mediterranean Sundance

2005-08-31T14:31:00.000+05:30

Hello Friends
This is for the music lovers.
Listen to Mediterranean Sundance performed by John McLaughlin, Al Di Meole, and Paco de Lucia. Its a Guitar Piece. You will surely die listening to it.
Download the Tabs for it. Id suggest only the actual guitar players download the tabs, not the
I-Just-Bought-A-Guitar-And-I-Can-Play-Smells-Like-Teen-Spirit types.

Hello

2005-08-29T22:16:00.001+05:30

All that glitters is not gold;
Often have you heard that told:
Many a man his life hath sold
But my outside to behold:
Gilded tombs do worms enfold.
Had you been as wise as bold,
Young in limbs, in judgment old,
Your answer had not been inscroll'd:
Fare you well; your suit is cold.

Hello friends..
My life, I declare, isnt going anywhere. As a matter of fact, I dont even have a life.
I just want everyone to know that since I dont have a life anymore Id might as well stop blogging about not having a life.

I read in the paper today, in TOI(see, it beats HT again), something about people living dual lives and stuff and about having a different life online. It felt as if I was reading about myself. It is so true that the internet gives you a different life, the kind of life that you like, the kind you want. But then again, its not there forever and you do have to snap back to reality.

Anyways, since I am writing, Id wanna tell you guys why I love france. The food is great, the life is great. Then, the people. To say they are great is an understatement, but I cant seem to find the word so well we would have to settle with great for now. The people there, the ones I was around, they did not know me at all, yet they were nice to me(unlike the people here). They dont get anything out of it.
Another reason. After a hell lot of a long time, I was carefree, I had nothing to care about. I have a feeling that was the last I would ever see of carefreeness. And thus I am in love with france. Not obsessed, just in love.

And since I am writing. Theres this thing that comes up when I talk abt carefreeness. My Ultimate Definition of Carefreeness is falling from an airplane 30000 ft up without any parachutes and just having a free fall when you know you're gonna die and you were gonna die the next day anyway. And yes, With Arms Wide Open.

And since I am not stopping to write, one last thing. For those of you who think that they have got to know me better through my blog, then heres some more stuff for you people. The reason why I dont let people get near me is that I am hollow from inside.

My life i was saying, is boring because I have nothing in it. I do nothing but school home * 5 and then fiitjee home * 2, and that eats up my week and things are over.

My FIITJEE teachers

2005-08-22T20:06:00.000+05:30

Hello Friends
Surprise Surprise.. 2 posts for my lovely readers.. a gift from me to you for not posting for so long

I am now going to grab this opportunity by the neck by telling you about my FIITJEE teachers:

1) Physics- Name: Arinbam Biswas. Codename: PABB.
Qualifications: Graduate from IIT Kharagpur and then went on to do his masters in Astrophysics from Boston University. This one's a really smart dude, as in really smart, but sadly he isnt always able to express what he is trying to say. He is also very good at remembering names and has already memorised the names of most of the kids in our class. His Hindi is quite bad though. He takes up lot of time in doing some questions though. I like the Physics class best for now

2) Chemistry- Name: Inder S. Kumar, Codename: C-IK.
Qualifications: I dont know, he did not tell us.
He's smart, no doubt but hes also a lot experienced in the teaching profession and hence acts like teachers. He throws chalks if he finds anyone talking. His English is quite bad though. Some of his Phrases
"Can Came".. for can come... "Had Having".. for has.. "ij".. is
Also, either he uses "Ijnt it" or "Getting" at the end of all sentences. His facial expressions are a bit weird

3) Maths - Name: Vineet Gupta.. Codename: MVG
Qualification: Dont know
Hes been transferred from Hyderabad. He sweats too much. In his first class, his shirt was totally drenched in an A/C classroom. Thats all I have to say about him

Hello

2005-08-22T19:44:00.000+05:30

Hello People
I are back. I finally realised that it has indeed been a long time since the last time I blogged and decided to do what I am doing right now.

Nothing much has been happening in my life these days.

FIITJEE classes are quite exciting actually. I like cracking my brain but sometimes it feels like running a Mac OS X on an intel machine with 256 MB RAM.

Friday was Rakhi and my cousin sisters who previously were in Chandigarh came over. They have moved to Delhi now as they are now married. One of them has a baby daughter. I think it was the first time they tied me a rakhi in person

Interesting Observation: Blue Kajal does not look good. That was for rhea by the way.

Another One: French songs are good.

I am writing a book which I plan to title "The 4th Minute". Over here I wanted you guys to make the observation that I was kidding.

The above little paragraph goes to show how sad my life is.

Another Observation: Loneliness aint that bad.

Why the UN sucks

2005-08-05T21:55:00.001+05:30

hello people
I shall now tell you why the UN sucks.

You see, the UN is an organisation of 191 member nations and was founded in the year 1945. But, having said that, the UN is majorly controlled by that Bush of a country USA and that Liar of a country UK.

And because of that, little nations like Vanuatu get left out. No matter what these little countries have in mind, the UN does whatever USA or UK says. For example, the unnecessary war on Iraq. The actual terrorist lies in that bush of a character BUSH. Hes just the worlds biggest terrorist with that monkey face of his.

What USA fails to realise is that there are actually smarter countries in the world, like Vanuatu, with zero reported cases of HIV/AIDS.

My point here is that
a) UN isnt a world organisation anymore

b) USA is a useless country

c) Bush should be hanged
