Saint...

Once a saint was asked whether he wants to go to the forest or the country. The saint smiled and replied, "I would like to go to the forest". The saint's disciples got confused by these answers but were afraid to ask him the reason for it.

Courageously one young guy got up and posed the question, "What’s the reason master?"
The saint dropped out a calm smile. He turned his face towards the young student. He paused for a while and replied, "In forest we can see wild animals like lion, tiger, snake etc, and there are soft natured wild animals like rabbit, deer etc. A lion always behaves like a lion and a deer always behaves like a deer. No one will change its basic nature at any time and at any cost. So, when I see a lion, I can get prepared for what to do and what not to do and I can behave according to that. The same thing for rabbit etc”.

“If I go to a country, all humans’ looks alike but each one have different character. Soma has character of the lion, some with snake’s character. But on seeing them they look like humans. We can't find the dangers hidden inside them just by seeing or being with them for a while. So forest is better than country” said the saint.

I and PQT

I am an engineer. I am an engineer NOW. The latter will be more appropriate than the former. I am a computer engineer it seems. That’s what Anna University says in its course certificate. I finished (ufff...) my engineering course in crescent engineering college, a very well known college in Chennai.

We, the Anna university engineering students have 6 to 9 subjects for every semester and we have 8 semesters totally. Among the subjects we studied (lol); there are few subjects which passes fast like a cloud. Some subjects stick with us like clay. This is because, engineering students love few subjects and on the other hand, some sujects love engineering students. Cloud is the former and the latter is the clay.

Since the subject loves the student very much, it wont leave them at all and wants to stay with them through out their life (college life at least). PQT is one among them.
Probability and queuing theory (random process for some) is the paper which loved almost all the engineering students.

Every time when the exam time table comes, students get keen about the date for PQT. Pupil cancels all their dates and get ready for pqt date. Every time when we write the exam, it becomes like we are filing a case to divorce pqt from our life. But luckily PQT wins the case and stays with us for one more semester.

I had PQT in my 4th semester and I stayed till my end of the college life. I wrote it for 5 times and still it stayed with me since it had a crush on me. The last semester came and I was carrying PQT yet. We were put into high pressure and tension. We have to give out our best shot and hit it away. It was like a do or better die situation. I searched for some one who can help me in preparing the subject. No one was ready. I have got a very good friend of mine, called Naveed. He is a born genius I would say. Even he carried the paper and suggested me for a combined night study. I was very happy that Naveed was ready to help me out.

We stayed in one of our friend’s house. He was actually getting ready to prepare on that night. I suggested him for a nap. He had no other go and so accepted. We didn't have a nap but deep sleep. When we woke up it was 10.30 am the next day.

Our night study got screwed because of my suggestion. We were running back to our homes as we had pqt the next day. The question paper was completely confusing as usual. Since we had one more exam in the afternoon, we were not even able to celebrate our sadness that we didn't do well PQT.

All the exams got over and we were in our last vacation in our life. One fine Friday morning the result got released. I was not able to access net and so asked few of my friends to check my result. When I heard the word "result released", my mind instantly thought about "what would happen for PQT?" I dint think about any other subject’s results.

I had a deal with my friends that, if I had cleared all the papers, they can call me. Otherwise they should not. I will understand that I screwed my life. I was waiting for the results and I was able to feel that my body's temperature was rising. The phone rang, and it was my friend. I attended the call. He asked with a low voice, "Macha what is MA1252 da?" I understood. But to give answer to his million dollar question, I said, "PQT macha". "Macha you didn't clear PQT da", he replied.

THAT'S IT.

I felt as if I was thrown into hell fire. Not only me but most of my friends got arrear in PQT. PQT alone, in fact. I didn't do anything. Simply sitting for the whole day regretting for the mistakes which I have done from childhood.

I have applied for re-evaluation with no hope. When I went back to college, I felt as if I was entering nude. Some how I applied for re-val. Some people advised, I advised my juniors, some people gave hope. All these got over that day.

I came to my native for a business project. I started thinking about alternatives for bread and butter since I lost hope in BE. I cannot be a BE any more. This is what filled my mind. Luckily the business project gave me a shift to my mind and I slowly started forgetting PQT. One fine evening I got a sms that re-val results have come.
Again I asked same friends, same deal. One of my friends who applied for re-val checked his results and he didn't cleared. He studies better than me. I lost hope and was damn sure that I screwed my own a**. After a while, my mobile rang. My friend was on call and said, "Macha congrats, you are an engineer now. You have cleared PQT".

Sujatha...

Sujatha, for some this name refers to a singer, for some a (!) wife, for some, someone. For me, the word sujatha gives a sweet memory about two people. One is my favorite writer. Almost 80 percent of Tamil people know about this writer and there are better people to talk about him. He is no more in this world now and we miss him a lot every day.
This article is about the second sujatha of my life. She is actually the first sujatha who crossed in my life. She was a breeze in my life. Let me tell you our story, which has not been revealed ever at any place, any time.
It was a Friday, I still remember. We were getting ready for the week end holidays. I was in my class. Some red saree teacher was teaching some crap and was bugging us to take a note on it. I, as usual made a mistake and I was searching for an eraser, in my friend's bag. He, as usual didn't bring and so I checked my bag. I am no exception. My bag hasn’t carried an eraser in its life.
I was asking my class mates for eraser. No bugger helped me out. At that time, a helping hand came near me. It was sujatha. She gave me the eraser. I used it and said "thanks". She replied with a "no mention". I interpreted the "no mention" as "why thanks and all between hubby and honey?"
I felt thousand sparks deep inside my heart as she replied to me. We (I, actually) became friends after that 27 seconds relationship. The next two days went as if they were two centuries (theory of relativity). For the first time in my life, I was keenly waiting for the Monday to come. Till today that was the only Monday I have waited for it to come.
I have prepared to ask for many things like (can you give me your, this, that etc., heart at last) in the two days. The Monday came; I went so early to class expecting her to come early. I waited for the whole day, she didn't come. I waited for the next day too; the whole week in fact. She never came to class after that. I don't know what happened.
I was not able to meet her at all till this very second. I should have gone to her home the next day itself. I was not able to do because of two reasons. One is I don't know where her home is and the second reason is, no parent will allow their LKG kid to go out alone.

I have a friend of mine. He is in fact, one of my best friends; better than the best I would say. He is from Kashmir. He often says that his native is a lost paradise. He is a very energetic guy and one of the very few broad and awesome attitude guys I have ever seen in my quarter century life.

Whenever he talks about Kashmir, his face turns sad and he says only "sad, sadder and saddest" things about Kashmir. Life in Kashmir is miserable; this is what his ultimate statement about Kashmir.

Quite often we tease him like "kashmiri's are jobless; they either protest or go for a bomb blast etc., One day he asked a question to me.

-What will you do if you have a just born baby and the supply of baby food and medicines blocked for more than a month?
-What will you do if your basic needs get blocked?
-What will you do when some one fell sick and goes serious condition and you are not allowed to move out of your home?
-What will you do when everyone in your family is missing when you get up on a fine morning?
-What will you do when your only beloved sister gets gang raped and murdered?
-What will you do when your only child gets shot dead by some one for no reason?

There were many more questions. I was left without answers. The answers for above questions are a part of Kashmiri’s life.

I am answerless; In fact every one of us is. We are shameless too for our answerless state. As of now, to console him, I can only state a verse from Qur'aan, Allah says in the qur'aan like "oh! people, do you think that you can enter paradise so easily withou any tests from God?" I don't know the exact verse, I'll update you as soon as I get it.

Though it is lost, a paradise is always a paradise. Don’t worry Ilyas; at least our grandchildren "may" live in a peaceful Kashmir...

Watch the presentation about Kashmiri’s life... Join hands; raise your voice, let’s spread peace and humanity, at least to our neighbors...

Midas... from a different view...

I think it’s an imaginary story of Man. Hope every one would have heard this story...

Long long ago, very long ago, there lived a greedy king called Midas (oh damn! it goes like a story for the kids, let me give out in a new flavor).

Long time back, a greedy "F" (fool i mean) lived in a country where there were no cute looking girls. They were not cute but "cuter" and so they were the guy's wallet money "cutter". The above said "F" (fool again), was a greedy fellow and a king too.

His greediness went to an extent that he asked God Almighty to give him a wish. God, the Knower of All, wants to teach him a lesson. So, he gave it to him.

You know what the hell he asked? I know, you don't know. If you would have known, then you won’t be reading this line. You would have skipped this article.

Ok, coming back to the point... His wish was quite different... (Different at that time, but every politician's today wishes the same). He asked God to change everything into gold, which ever he touches. I have already told you in Fourth Para that God wants to teach him a lesson so he said YES to his wish. So, I think no need to tell the statement that God said yes to his wish.

Then came the climax of the story. He touched water, it turned gold. He was so happy. He touched his food, it turned gold. He started laughing like hell. He was into extreme happiness. Since he got extreme happiness, he wanted to make love with his wife...'s sister. She turned gold. Now only he understood the seriousness of the wish he had. Then Nature called him. He went to rest room and touched... the bucket I mean, it turned gold. He ran away from there and repents for his greediness. He was forgiven then. This is the end of the story.

Moral: - Always keep your wife's sister at home. You can learn lesson from her only...

Heights of Creativity: Ads...

In today's consumerized world, people go for a product which gets advertised a lot. From eye brow stick to underwear, the business selling of a product depends upon the advertisement made for that particular product. There are people who go for brand name and quality. But, on the whole, Advertisements have a major impact in a business.
Advertising and marketing needs high and creativity. It has to touch all categories of people and tempt them to buy the product which gets advertised. The learning ability differs from people to people. There are many dumb people who find it so hard to understand even a simple concept some people go for contextual meaning, which is hidden inside a particular concept.
The medium of advertisement is growing day by day. New forms, technologies, ideas and Innovations are taking place in the advertising media. The budget for advertising keeps on increasing in all the companies and corporations. No one will spend hell out of money without getting any returns. Ninety percent of blogs and bloggers in the world are surviving because of Ad postings. I am no exception.

Missed Call...

The term missed call evolved after mobile phones came into market. At first, the "missed call" option was introduced by the mobile phone manufacturing companies to make the user know the calls which he/she missed when he/she was busy.
Now a days, there is a new meaning formed for missed call. Since there is no cost charged for missed call, people started using this option as a signal for something. The phrases "I'll call you when I reach there", "I'll give you a call when I finish this", "drop me a call when you arrive" etc, changed to "I'll give you a missed call when I reach there", "I'll give you a missed call when I finish this" and so on. The term missed call has become the meaning to denote that something has been done.
More than that, the word missed call is turning as a verb now. There are sentences came into existence like this, "I'll miss call you", "miss call me" and so on. It means, instead of calling, and talking, just give me a ring and cut the line. I'll understand that the deal is done or ready.

Love thy neighbor

In modern world, we don't have time to take care of our own family also. But it is a good culture to have good relationships with the neighbors. As we started missing our cultures and values, this statement may sound weird. The person who cannot able to get good name from his neighbor cannot get good will any where.

The person who gives peace and harmony to his or her neighbor will be among the best person’s crowd in the world. We should maintain relationships with our neighbors such that if some third person sees it, he or she should get a doubt like "Are you going to give a part of your wealth to him in your will?"

More than everything, we should take care and love our neighbors. After hearing this statement, I have tried implementing this. It gave me a good response. I am respected and valued by my neighbors.

Getting up early...

Getting up early is considered among many youngsters as one of the biggest sins in the world. Some youngsters are very proud that they get up late. People who get up early are called and mocked as "nerds".

Many people don't realize the benefits of getting up early. We can get extra time to do our work. In other words, if youths get up early, they can finish off their stupid bugging jobs soon and can flirt with their so called "close" friends for few more hours making their mobile balance to zero though they have put some additional offers for less cost for out going calls.

In today's polluted world, we can get pure air (45% pure) only during early mornings.
Once the vehicles start its works, air, noise and many more pollutions come into the show. Let us put a full stop to those late night chats and start getting up early and
bring in a new world. It is 1.14 mid night now, Good night.

Psychology questions two...

Here is the psychology question two. You were given a remote control. The deal is that, if you press a button in the remote, one of your most hated enemies will die. No matter where he is, how he is... He will die and the best part of the deal is, he will die leaving no evidence about the killer. That is, you will not get caught at all. No one will come to know that you are the one who is behind this murder.

Now sit back, relax and say... will you press the button in the remote? Just bring your most hated enemy in your mind, the revenge you wanted to take against him.

Most of us will go for the deal and press it. This is what surviving deep inside everyone's heart. We behave like human since some one watch us. When we are left free, the animal inside us wakes up.

When I was asked this question, I said, "I'll press it twice. What if the first press doesn't work?"

Psychology question 1

There are two questions to test your actual internal psychology. The answer easily brings out who you are. Here are the questions... Answer yourself and let you know who actually you are...

Question number one: - What will you do when you become a hollow man? To add more essence to this question, let me put this out in a different way. Where and all will you go when you become invisible? Forget everything, sit relax fully and open your mind and see where your mind moves on when your physical appearance becomes invisible.

This is a simple test to find out how perversion invaded our deep thoughts. There are few people who really live a gentlemen life; like... (No not me!)

When I was posed this question, to be very frank, I thought like... I thought like...

p.s:- I can put it here. But this site won’t allow any adult content inside blog.
My blog is a very decent one you know...

Perversion...

All my friends call me in their flexible pet names. But most of them get united in a common word called "pervert". Since I think deeply and forced to have sense of humor by Almighty, I am nature to present everything comes out of my thoughts, words in a way that who ever listens to it will likes it. But the thing is they will not accept that they liked it. After I speak, they will say "you pervert bugger, you will never change” a loud laugh will be added with that phrases and still they will be waiting for my next set of conversations.

Let me give you a test to check who is a pervert.

"When I write some set of words like DEAR, FEAR, DEED, FEED, DUCK, people thinks that the next word will be a bad word. Now who is a pervert?"

BLOG...

Times were there people used to register their everyday programs like tensions, screws, happy, shouts, shits, Fs etc in a diary. Almost 80% of the crowd starts their efforts in some "aggression". But soon after 2 days, it will go down since their laziness override them. There are few holy humans in the world that has the hobby of looking at others diaries. So many people were literally scared about writing everything in their diaries. So eventually diary writing, one of the best hobbies in the world (and in the here after) came to a downfall. The time has changed now and the world is upgrading itself to "e". Like in the word "everywhere", the letter "e" replaced much prehistoric stuff in the world. Same way, diaries has become e-diaries, which are blogs now. Everyone who wants to shout or scream at the world that they are some one who are capable of blowing their trumpet, sax, flute or whistling at least can do it through blog. Thanks to the servers which holds terabytes of data which are updated and added everyday.

Some thing about ads

For such a long time, I have been wondering about one of the high impact field in the world, The Advertising industry. It’s not so easy to survive in it since it needs extremely talented creativity and innovativeness. Many a times, I froze after seeing some really awesome Ads. I don't know how they are able to narrate a story, popularize, market a product or service (no wonder, all because of extreme flow of $$$s). Some awesome Ads never let me sleep. Just in few set of frames or just in a single frame shot.

This is one part of it. On the other hand, there exists lot of Ads which exaggerate things. Most of the Tooth pastes, A body spray (yes, that one only) exaggerates to the core. Some of the Ads fool the people like anything.

Recently I saw an Ad. The celebrity who came in the Ad is a Pure Vegetarian. The funniest part was, the Ad was regarding a company which sells Chickens for Eating. I was stunned to see the Ad. Just imagine how much some of the Ad enterprises under estimated people.

I guess soon there will be some celebrity kid will advertise about some tablet which promises "long ***".
Who knows, the ad may go like this, the kid lying on the bed might say, "I use nayagra, complete feel, complete satisfaction and its longer, than our forefathers'... "

Pay for what you want...

Most of us will buy mobiles ranging from 2 grand to 40 grand. Though we sink into it for the first week, as the days pass, we will get bored of it and soon we wont be using much of its features. Mostly we will end up with sms, call, songs and very few other features. After a while we will be completely forgetting most of the features in it. As a whole, for the sake of few weeks’ craze we will be spending huge money on it. So why not the companies come up with CUSTOMIZED option.


That is, the customer can select his/her needs in that mobile and can pay for that alone. It will be cheaper and will produce high efficiency with respect to memory and the Operating System installed…Key in your views on it…

A topic about Topics

Topics are the life saver for all the chats, flirts, dialogues, deals, and agreements etc., that happen in every second in all over the world.The range of topics that’s been discussed in the world cannot be ranged at all. It differs from age to age, man to man, girl to girl, gang to gang, country to country, guy to guy, guy to girl and so on.

For example, we will take an Infant who just stepped in to the world. At first, he the topic he would like to discuss is with God. On his first “scream”, he will say, “Oh Almighty, Why the hell am I here?” Before he receives God’s reply, the staff nurse will take him to his mom, who just received an operation to take the baby.

Next his screaming will discuss with the Nurse, He will try making a haiku out of his screaming. The haiku goes like this, “A babe, carrying a baby!!!” Unfortunately, the staff nurse will not be able to comprehend what the infant was commenting.

Then comes his mom, where he strikes for his food. As the day passes, the infant will become kid, and his topics will moves on to dolls, pictures, colors etc.

When he becomes a boy, he slowly start talking about playing, whose dad is best etc.
Then he becomes a guy, where he always talks about girls and if he is a gay, he, of course, talks about guys only. Then he becomes a man, and his talks will be on profession, work, family, children, health etc. After years pass, he will become Old man and at last at his death bed, he again starts asking the Holy Almighty, “Oh God, Why the hell I was here?” Now, He can clearly get back his God’s reply, “Son, to take back you”
