A Year that was!

Okay, we are coming to end of one scam-full year and luckily without the terrorists giving us our monthly wages in form of attacks.If you are thinking I'm gonna write about politics,NO, just wanted a political start after all I have been writing to an online journal reporting on legal issues :)
Leaving the political as well as my personal diary for the year aside, this post "A year that Was" is not related to "2010-that was", but my first year at college that was :) :) .
Suddenly felt like digging my mind for all those memories but definitely I don't wanna relive them, just that its nice to think about all that and to appreciate yourself for the mental strongness you had even at such an young age.Definitely 17 compared to 20-21 is quite young and mad.
Thanks to the song that reminded me of L-212, our very own room that lodged six maniacs.Dunno how we managed to be in that small a room with exactly just three cupboards.I remember the way reeni came to me telling that I would be sharing my room with five others and how I could share my cupboard with her, and that moment my throat choked and my eyes filled with tears.Am i really gonna stay with 5 ppl??and is there no cupboard for myself??? I remember the way how eventually all of us forgot about it but rather learnt the art , in fact masterd the art of adjusting.With just one plug point, and five laptops and six mobiles.God, I'm so proud of us when I think about all that.
I remember the way all of us wrote apology just for the sake of playing music :P, I remember the way we had to clean the corridor because someone had forgotten to close the tap that ultimately resulted in flooding our rooms, and our several interaction sessions by the end of which we were embarassed in every possible way :P :P.
Our walk in the IMS, the park, the race course and the happiness out of listening to music with all the lights switched off after coming back from dinner.
The way we enrolled ourselves for the tug of war and went till the finals and ultimately lost to the "Mighty Nighties" and with me and arthi ending up with a BAD sprain that we couldn even get up or look what was happening on the other side of us.
And the way I got caught on the very last day of first year in the middle of the corridor with a cake in the hand at 12 in the night and asking a woman for a match box to light the candle and realising after few seconds that the woman was none other than the deputy warden and when I look around for help ,there was not a single soul as all of them had realised it was her and safely went inside and locked the door.I don't blame them, they called me a million times to come in, in that excited mode I didn't even recognize it was the deputy.
There could have been a lot of not really comfortable things that could have happened, why I'm not writing it here is,one-I dont remember them, two-I dont want to rememeber them, three-we were kids then ,four-I don't wanna mention it in my blog cos it'll not get erased with time ,it'll always stay and I don't wanna remember or read them :)

hungry kya??

I'm awake in this unearthly hour,thinking wat to do.Just finished my pomegranate, and watched troy for the count that I don't bother to keep track of..I just love that movie and those dialogues, takes you to another time.Especially the first few lines "Men are haunted by the vastness of eternity..will our name be echoed across centuries", just WOW, so true wrt our life.
So after watching this, I was just wondering if I would be remembered at all, not like for centuries, definitely I'm not thinking about it cos I'm no gandhiji, just in the places where I lived and where I was.
Whether I'm remembered for good or bad I don't care but will I be.Obviously I would wanna be known for some good reasons.But thinking of it, I have done absolutely no good.But I just cant help it, the situations makes me mad and angry ,though I realise I should reduce my anger I am just not able to.I really need to find a way to reduce my temper, atleast for my own good of not getting BP.
So, I decided that I'm gonna smile even for the most stupidest thing that can get onto your nerves.Where did I get all gnyanam??I was reading a blog, and there the blogger mentioned, why don't we just smile at a person no matter you know him or not ,just a greeting, it doesn cost you, but atleast you make that day a little more pleasant to the person at whom you smiled.So true, don't we feel so secure, and important even when a watchman smiles at us in the college.It just gives you a sense of belonging right?
So I changed my mind today after reading the blog and went with full josh to the mess and the minute I saw that the dinner was the same thing as yesterday, all plans gaali, adichadhu erangiduchu...no use, got all my anger back intact,and gave a villi look to the mess worker as if it was her master plan to give me the same food.I knew it was not her fault but my anger had no bounds at that time, all I did was give her a dirty look instead of a smile which I actually thought of.The improper side dish made me more angrier,no idea how it tasted, just that I never preferred that side dish.So she gets another villi look.
Ok, what did I gain out of all that??The gain was loss of dinner and a 100 bucks for in aunty shop :P  Adding to it is my killing hunger now that is not allowing me to sleep and as a result of which is this blog.
This is no moral story, it is just my day's evening activity.
I wanted to write about something else, out of hunger I have scribbled whatever that came to my mind.

Mad at everything.

Did I say I was grown up? No I'm not.I'm not able to adjust, I'm not pleased with anything that is happening around me.I think Ill go mad within a few days with all that is happening around me.I'll probably start crying with all this nonsense.Starting from getting up at 7 in spite of having class at 10 because of the endless noise by the literally vetti unknown people around me,brushing teeth in a wash basin that is filled with tomatoes,taking bath in a totally unclean bathroom,standing in a queue in the mess for one dosa which that inhumane woman is gonna throw on your plate as if I asked a part of her property, walking to the college which has exactly one entrance,and sitting in the most uncomfortable chairs and listening to ideologies of a person who totally does not inspire you, and promptly nodding heads for every word they say cos the refusal to do that might cost you an extra exam.And in spite being in  pre-final year you are made to skip the break because someone did not finish their portion!!!!! and you need to follow the same pattern as the first years do.You have no considerations.I need a change.I don't wanna listen to someone else's' ideas and preachings (I'm not talking about the lectures related to academics).Though I agree the spare time now is more, I'm not in a steady state now,I'm mad at everything I see.

Grown Up??

Have we really grown up,I'm just not able to imagine the amount of maturity all of us have gained.We have become so mature,so neat,well organized, less nosy ,not really bothered about what others think of us,or what others are up to.We have become more casual or should I say very focussed on what we have become,not that we have become selfish just that we know what exactly is required to share.We are able to empathize with people.
Last three days has been a test of maturity and how much are we at peace with the world.It was one amazing period of time where all of us after 6 long months have come together and enjoyed .A lot of us displayed so much empathy, and learnt the art of patience, and modesty.
Though few situations demanded us to be rude cos of the frustration, we at least had attained the maturity of apologizing or explaining the cause of the situation.What has happened to us, is it the exposure we got in this six months or should I simply say we have become old, or should I say its the generation gap between me and the ones younger to me that makes me talk to them as if I belonged to some other age,or have I realized and accepted that I was more or less the same(prolly little bit better)a few months back.Even to defiant people I could talk and still be at peace.Something has become to me or for that matter all of us that none of us are able to believe this sudden change in us.

Red-Eyed days

What a week has it been!The most horrible yet an adventurous week.
Good news-ku maela good news.Topping the list is there are no rooms, and 6 of us have to stay in a room that is equipped only for 4.
The room is near the bathroom and outside our room is the common dust bin which has not been cleaned for ages.
But still we have managed to have fun.We have been playing bridge every night.Almost all of us are affected with conjunctivitis and one with food poisoning.We, The red eyed gang have been playing and enjoying endlessly along with our caretaker amidst all the dirtiness,infection,congestion :P :P ,letting others worried!!
All of us have become so immune to the rules and conditions, that we don't even care about the seriousness of going out at 3 in the middle of the night to a hospital,or refusing to pay hostel fees or having just 20% attendance on the very first week of college.It has been fun throughout,loving the maturity that all of us have attained after this span of 6 months.We have become soooo matured,that we ourselves aren't able to believe!!

:( :(

The day which i was not at all waiting for in these six months has come :( :( Have to go back to hostel.

No hot water to take bath,no timely food,no mom to feed,no dad to leave me wherever i wanna go out,thatha to give hot cash whenever and how much ever i need,no soodana kaapi served in my hand.NOOOOOOO, i dont wanna go,but i have to:( :(.Tata,I'm off to hostel and college.C/O PSG Tech Ladies Hostel (Home away from home :P :P :P )

G-Meals!!

I just got reminded of this small incident in my life when i read the word Gujarat.I think it was in my 6th semester, totally famished that i was just waiting for my class to get over to run for lunch.Luckily,that day the hour before lunch was cancelled so it gave me a reason to go out and eat.All i wanted was a full meals in aryas cos i was very very hungry.All this i was thinking during the security class, and was telling divi about how hungry I was and she was in a sadder plight than me without a proper breakfast.So divi told that she knew a place that provides Gujarati meals and that she has not tried it before and was like why don't we go.Delighted and amused by the variety i would be getting for the same 40 bucks I got excited and I thought my stomach could wait an extra 20 mins.So we took a bus all the way to gangotree.Both of us were all smiles,orey happiness,no class,yummy food.That was a new restaurant in the area,we went in , didn't even look into the menu,saw G-MEALS 45 rupees, got very excited and ordered 2 meals.Very content that we occupied 2 seats and kept grinning.5 mins,10mins,15,20....40 minutes passed and still the food has not come.Divi was like "Probably there is a lot of variety and thats why it is taking a lot of time", my stomach grew angrier , so i thought i would order dokla, divi got irritated by it, "loose,you think gujarathi meals is complete without dokla,dont waste money".I was like "atleast let me order samosa".After nearly an hour one plate of meals came, the guy who served asked "amma,eppidi ungaluku indha meals pathi theriyum".Very proudly divi said "naan last week inga vandhaen uncle" .That guy very impressed by her sweetness,"innoru plate 2 minutes la varum".And then after all this conversation we look at the plate with eagerness , all that was there was "1 chappathi,2 spoons fried rice,1 small papad,1gulab jamun with 1 TSP jeera,curd rice,lemon pickle",both of us were taken aback,why does gujarati meal serve all this!!!Then slowly with our stomachs cursing us we ate that food thinking "idhuku aryas-la saptu irukalam",only when i finished it struck me that nowhere it has been mentioned Gujarati meals, it was only G-meals,which meant GANGOTREE MEALS u buddhu,which is a normal sappa regular meals.WE left back grinning out of anger cos of her stupidity.
Cos of all this sadness we bunked the afternoon session.

We are the best

Okay, Im back after a nice vacation.Wish i had net connection at that time cos i fell in love with a lot of things in there, it was like a fantasy world.Only now have I started getting the desire to go abroad.Lets see what happens!!
But namma country is the best, any foreigner would love it from the minute he lands (or even before) on our soil.
These are the few things that amazed me when i reached.
1. Talking on the mobile when the flight is about to start even when asked to switch.
2. Even before the flight stops people are ready with their hand luggages and have already formed a queue even before the seat belt signal is off.
3.People rush as if they are gonna catch another flight pushing everyone aside.
4.The worst show by airport authorities, pushing the baggages from a great height on to the conveyor belt , at      least they can show some mercy to LED TVs not that they are gonna pay for its damage least they can be considerate.
5.Thanks to the construction work in the airport which no one knows when it'll end, that the international airport's exit is the same as the domestic ones' which is around a 10 minute walk with all your luggages.Though they give you a trolley , you cant roll it on the rain affected path.
6.And the monopolization of Fast track call taxis that you need to pay a 500 bucks for a 20 mins distance, if you refuse to give ,all you have to do is wait in the airport with all the harassing drivers and coolies don't know till when.
7.And can you believe that if a minister has to catch a flight and if he happens to take the same road as you do near the airport, you are asked to wait till he leaves.Damn it even i am gonna board the same flight as you or probably a flight that is leaving in an hour, why do you get to rush when i get to wait.At least they can make the flights wait for them, all we can do is show a tata to the flight we missed.
Not that I'm showing off or anything, as an Indian we get to tolerate all this cos it has rubbed in to us that our country will always be the same.But when a foreigner comes to our place, don't you think these are the first things that'll catch his eye, cos don't we easily judge something at the first instance itself.

Bon Voyage!!

Tata!! Me leaving to Singapore and Malaysia tomorrow :) :)Bon Voyage to myself!!Will be back on Nov-24
I'm too excited now :) :) Will upload pics in Picassa, just now i got senses to create an account and start treasuring the photos somewhere safe rather than saving it on my anytime crashing laptop!!By the way i bought a new camera! :) :) Cya soon!!
Bye!! :) :)

A Trip to Coimbatore :)

After all that whining i made it to coimbatore last week right after diwali.Was such a horrible feel to leave home wearing those old jeans and a faded kurta for train on diwali  when the entire world around you is wearing the most expensive and elegant showy clothes.But still i had to go, had my damn viva on the very next day.I was just cursing everyone who fixed this date for me,but in the end i had to compromise right,so i just left.I had this irritating person as my external examiner, God!! Someone has to really tell him that he doesn own the world,the questions he asks and the stupid smile which he gives when you are answering his questions,and his endless doubts!!seriyana useless man he is!!But then it was over decently!!
I had to stay in hostel ,literally stealing my junior's beds and all their things for my another 2 days stay for a one sec photo shoot on the following monday.me and vini decided that we'll not step into the mess,even if we die out of hunger,so that day afternoon went for lunch,went on a mad shopping,packed dinner.We had no clue wat to do on sunday cos our cards are half burnt.So we thought we'll go to some place where we cant do any shopping, for that gumbal sekkanum, so immediately called sudharsan,gopi,and TB. Tb backed out.So the next day went for a nice peaceful and happy lunch in Thats y food, went to SKC bought kurta for these guys for the hoto shoot :P We forced gopi into buying, burnt his card too :) Then went on a relishing drive to marudhamalai, and back to hostel after an awesome day:):)
The next day morning it was the photo shoot where the guys who were wearing kurta were screwed :P :P But thats ok, a trip is npt complete without getting scoldings from thala.Had a refreshing talk with HOD and NG.Went to Peking, had an awesome lunch and then back to EDP to fix ppl's reports and then to CCD and then back to chennai on an awesome bus with amazing co-passengers :) :)

May 17 - Nov 10 :)

                             And it's another fall ...

                             And no words said, All hearts full ...

                             There goes the leave, Destined to bliss ...

                             So see the one awaiting their turn ...

                             And it's Winter and Spring and Summer to come ...

                             And it's the fall ... again !!!

 

Poem Courtesy: Gopikrishnan :)

Ok.Done with my internship :) Feels oru maadhiri. I have never been nostalgic about anything in my life so much, this is making me crazy. Have been thinking about these six months and how we had fun :( We were all like nava-grahangal when we came ,each of us in our own way, but now it looks like we know each other forever.But good its over in a nice way, with all farewells and sweet goodbyes.When I was cribbing it was over, one of my friends said "We should be very happy that it happened :) " .So true!! Apart from these guys there were hell lot of ppl with whom i made frens, im gonna miss my team those spl ppl who made it different.It was a nice feel to be there. Gonna miss all this, but will definitely cherish it each time i think about it.Initially I never felt any kinda nostalgia, then alagiri told "Its not that we aren gonna meet sudha, its just that out of 10 of us,even one doesn come back to this place and even if there are a lot of new exciting people, it wouldn be the same,we would always be comparing it to this first time, there is nothing as amazing as the first time".Correct na,only then i realised and felt like screaming "Im gonna soooo miss u" :(

Happy Diwali :)

Its diwali!! :) Did nothing great. Got up early, had ganga snaanam,idli and lot of sweets and murruku, this time amma's gulab jamun didn't come out well, it looked as if i cooked :( But anyways content with all the other yummy things she has made :) Showed off my new dress to eveyone,now watching all the typical shows that are telecasted during a festival in tamil channels .Starting from morning nadhaswaram, pattimandram,some famous actress for the year's interview, new movies' making.Now waiting for "India tholai-kaatchiyil mudhan murayaga" movie- sivaji :) But as a rule in my college, you are not allowed to celebrate diwali peacefully.Today night Im going to college.Tomorrow i have viva :(aaarrrrrrrrrrggghhhhhh..

Anyway, Happy and a safe Deepavali to all of you :)

Dont think im mad

I have no clue what I'm doing at office today.Of all only today,diwali's eve ,that I decided to come to office so sincerely.My parents asked me not to go, my friends told me not to go, there is like literally no one whom i know except for my own chair and the system.But somehow i like sitting here all alone, doing nothing,watching some random you tube videos,talking about constitution, communism and general political things to the only known person for the day.Now,thinking when shall I leave home,and  I keep looking at myself in the mirror and ask "Manasula periya sincere-nu nenappu"

eat shop sleep

I wanna buy everything i see and i wanna eat every edible thing that i find.Wat am i gonna do once i go back to hostel..I'm so hungry at the wrong times and i wanna sleep in the afternoons in an AC room, and i wanna shop like every weekend..These are the first things that any hosteler should  not dream about..but i cant help it..I cant imagine going back and not allowed to go out in the evening , and paying for what i don't like and don't eat, I cant imagine shopping every weekend with only 500 rupees per month as pocket money, also ADJUST; something I have not done for the past few months.I remember telling myself before i left for internship, it won't be difficult to be coming back cos 6 months of freedom cannot make me forget the 3 years of this life,but believe me wen i say i forgot everything, I don't know what it would be like to come back.Hope is all that I'm clinging on to , to have a nice one year back in college :)

six beautiful months :)

ebay:)

Its almost over.But I'm really not happy about it.These 6 months were so beautiful, i just cant believe it got over within a flash of a second.Its as if only last week was  March 5(ebay interview), we all looked deranged, and i remember the way all of us got shocked when sudharsan's name didn't appear on the selected list, I totally forgot to go and even check my name. And all became topsy-turvy, that idiot got spot selected :O. And we had to wait for another one week to get the results.Arthi was in suspension wen results came :P.And i remember the happiness and the satisfaction we got when shivram took us to the placement cell and gave us our call letter.I'm sure the rest would have felt so senti just like me.After all this,our pre-internship drama ended.

welcome:)

And on May 16,i remember the way we were all messaging and talking to each other, we were so scared and all worried how is it gonna be, how are we gonna enjoy cos we are not with the rest, will it be nice, will it be the most beautiful 6 months like all our seniors say?will we enjoy??how will a company be,everyone has joined and are liking it , we are like the last ones to join in our class..will we enjoy in the same way..??so many so many thoughts in all our minds..but then it just took a second to erase all the doubts and worries.

board room!

The first day at office..me and raghav came with santy..the other girls with sindhu , the guys with muthu anna...they took us so promptly to the reception and got us ID cards..i remember all 10 of us did nothing but just grin at each other..we were literally grinning...we were soooo happy. dunno why we were grinning but we were..We looked like lkg kids in an amusement park, so happy , so care free..After all this, we had nowhere to go , but our very own board room(fatehpur sikhri), , it all look likes yesterday :( It took us a week to come out of the amusement.

vetti scene :P

I remember the way those 3 used to show off with their study material :P.

Prolly with ppl like raghavan and TB , i have spoken very less before i came here, but now its like i have known them forever, i love them soo much.As a matter of fact, i have grown close to all of them..I just love these guys.
I remember those endless manga sessions at charminar, the sappa class meetings we used to put,the number of times we used to call VSK sir for just nothing,the way we used to plan before sending or kalachifying in groups, the way gopi poured water in vishnu's plate  for which me and CP cleaned the table :P, and later the same gopi being the source of entertainment to all of us,our pre and post lunch sessions, our lunch gumbal in the cafeteria, vishnu's and gopi's hosanna :) ,muthu na's treat.

foos ball

treat!

Alagiri and vishnu's determination to tease pree, the dance in the cafeteria for which we stood at the back and commented as if noone was listening, the party night, break out's tropicana,foos ball names like wonder kid,rajbath,etc.,

Pree :D

The free ice creams, birthday parties :), the best place to work in party, the play pal events and raghavan's love for sports :)

playpal:)

very own charminar

My bus rides with raghavan .The mokkai fellow whom we all hate :P and how we used to run away when he comes,the test match we watched in the break out, our TB's numerous boy frens :P ,the comments we posted in a random guy's  blog just to kadupu ethify  him :P , my morning coffee with santy and TB.The best moment being the recent one , the feedback where we felt sooooooo proud when the entire ebay world praised us.Especially i remember when the session was going on , me CP and TB were sitting in the break out with a feel that we were already missing this place, with our throats choking, and claiming that we indeed had a beautiful 6 months, noone can take this away from us :) I'm happy its all a nice ending, i wanna remember this place only in a happy way, there was never an instance wen even one of us felt uncomfortable with any other person.There has never been a sad moment , we even felt comfortable working here.Feeling very happy that my 7th sem was just the way i wanted it to be.Think even the rest of them felt the same :)

I have no idea why i keep changing my blog title..I have still not come up with a name...till I'm satisfied its gonna keep changing with months!! :) You can also give suggestions..I'm bored and tired of thinking!

I Have a Dream!

I dont have 'a' dream , but a lot of them :P. This is not about my dream.This is about Martin Luther King's dream.

His public speech "I have a Dream" , way back on August 28,1963, is considered as a defining moment for the Americans (even the unborns). I happened to read it,trust me it was simply brilliant.It was really nice to read it.Though I was no way related to this sect of people , the speech made me understand the grief, the pain and every unpleasant feeling that  these people undergo. 

Few inspirational lines from the speech.

"... have a dream that one day every valley shall be exalted, and every hill and mountain shall be made low, the rough places will be made plain, and the crooked places will be made straight..."

"..In the process of gaining our rightful place, we must not be guilty of wrongful deeds. Let us not seek to satisfy our thirst for freedom by drinking from the cup of bitterness and hatred.."

This is what you call freedom of speech.

I am putting up this post so that people who haven read the speech "I Have a Dream" by Martin Luther King can have a look at it.

Sundal Time :)

After so many years Im home for golu :) and im home helping my mom with it, rather than being a mere visitor to my own house :)
I love this part of the year a lot :) Cos its navarathiri time,house will be very colorful ,a lot of friends ,relatives, neighbors would come home,mainly you can get a lot of nice things to eat, your treasury will grow in size each time you go to a house :P.I remember when i was kutti, i used to go to everyone's house and sing (read it as bray , if i don't they wont give sundal :( ) and get some sundal and earrings,hair bands,or something girlie as thamboolam which i can show off in the school the next day. In some houses they'll give us chocolates, so ill make sure i go there on all the 9 days :).I remember how my mom will choose dresses for me , those nice and traditional pattu pavaadais which  I would refuse to wear telling those are for 1 year old kids and prefer wearing the same salwar (can u believe sudha wanted to wear salwar even when she was 5 when duppatta itself would make 2 salwars for her) that too with duppata, I can only imagine myself that way and laugh. But now i wanna wear pattu paavadai..but i know ill look like a overgrown pig if i do that now ...cant even picturise me in that way ..:O (warning: stop imagining!!).
I'm not gonna upload any pic for this post.Cos im going to put my house golu pics itself (prolly after a few days) so that you can appreciate my art of keeping golu :)

(Un)True

All of us know Gandhi was born on Oct 2 and was assassinated by Godsey on Jan 30. We also know that Godsey was no foreigner, but we weren told and we didn't bother to understand  his (godsey's) intention to do so.It seems Godsey paid his respects and thanked Gandhiji for his various sacrifices and good deeds before he killed him.I was suddenly eager to know about all this , and when i was browsing, there was no article which called Godsey a fanatic and none accused him , all of them had agreed he had a reason for it. We weren told all this because Mahatma has contributed a lot to our country and it is better if we are unaware of his misdeeds which he had done only out of the blind love for the country and only did that one of those misdeeds arouse godsey. the link which i have attached is one among the other similar links that surprised me.There are even information that  Gandhiji's non- violence was not the one which sent back the Bristish but Subash Chandra Bose's army  that intimidated the British and , British weren people who would succumb to ahimsa cos if they had had agreed to ahimsa they would have done it way back in 1930.
All we are left with is information and pieces of a jig saw puzzle and we do not know how to fix it cos we don't even know what we want the puzzle to give as a solution in the end.
Anyways Happy Gandhi Jayanthi !!:)

Endhiran: Not a movie spoiler!!

Yaaaaaaayyyyy!! I watched rajini's movie first day in ESCAPE (sathyam)  :) :) Can i be even more happier??I'm not gonna tell anything about the movie, watch it yourself.. My comment would be..its an amazing movie which definitely Indian cinemas have not seen..and it was a shankar's movie more than rajini's..
But isn't rajini amazing..people might ask and mock why the hell does he act when he is old?But would the same person who commented this would let it pass without him watching the movie?Of course not, why rajini acts cos people want him to act,people would accept him for it..Won't we still watch a movie acted by tom hanks or jackie chan..All this criticism does nothing to rajini but give him an extra advantage.
Rajini does no marketing to his films.Its his fans who take care of it once the promos are released.Except for the movie enthiran(even which rajini didn't expose himself much before the release)which was hyped cos of the producer who is a giant in the media industry ,I do not remember any movie of rajini's getting hyped before its release;cos that is the kind of person rajini is and all he needs to do is tell there is a movie release and the rest is taken care of..
In fact i was surprised when i saw the english news channels including rajini's movie release in their headlines and comparing him with amitabh and srk..those are the same news channels which would arrange shows for the heroes(sometimes even the star heroes) to publicise their movies so uselessly and it'll be like someone is forcing us to watch the movie.And those are the same TV channels which would promote the reality shows conducted by the stars cos that is a way of publicity for the movie and for them.Of course not everyone can be like rajini and not every movie can hit the box office like rajini's without publicity.There can be no star whose effigy and posters get a royal welcome before the movie release.The night before the release is similar to a new year's eve..This is not only in Chennai,even in Mumbai, Delhi and London.If you tell me that is impossible..go watch the news yourself.
In real life he does not pretend.He does not dress himself flamboyantly outside the film sets like all the others,and only for these reasons he is loved so unconditionally.I really pity the movies which get released on the same day as his..2 days back ranbir kapoor has requested the viewers through 'Times now' that "Please watch anjaana anjaani if you don't get tickets for enthiran"...How much ever people argue telling that he is no super star..inside them everyone knows that there is no great man who made a normal movie even for tamil standards like muthu which became a super duper hit in countries like japan where you can hardly find a non-japanese speaking or understanding group of ppl...What kind of publicity did he do?? NOTHING!!
I'm so happy that my first movie in theatre was his "thalapathy" and I'm so lucky that i belong to an era which crazily fought to get his movie tickets and didn't mind giving even 1000 bucks to watch it. :)

Bunkie!!!!!!!!

I bunked!!!!!! After a very long time..its been weeks since i bunked...such a disgrace..thanks to raghavan, he gave me the motivation :P :P cha see what i have become, instead of being a source of inspiration , im gaining one to bunk :( It felt sooo nice, but miss hostel...i just can imagine the lame reason i would come up with (ear pain, leg sprain :P) to convince reeni that i could bunk, or else she would ask me to come to college with her very sweet voice :P..I remember in hostel i used to get up early and brush and go have breakfast and send them all off to college and again ill go back to bed to sleep..I used to do all this cos hunger shouldn't wake me up in between :P :P ..Miss those days :(

I want someone to get married now.Yesterday i was cleaning my cupboard , and i realized i have taken a lot of my mom's saris and collected all matching accessories for them so that i can wear them for an occasion..But all these things would go in vain if noone gets married..i need a 10 days marriage then only its possible for me to exhaust all that i have collected..So someone please get married and most importantly do send me an invitation :)

?????????????

Having cold,fever...:( feeling really depressed..dunno what i'm doing to myself and also what i'll be doing..hope god makes my mind stable...every minute i think of a new plan, next minute i try to implement it and the very next minute i regret and curse myself for even thinking about it in the first place and i wanna go back in time so that ill get a chance to correct!!!Have no idea what i would be in 2 years from now..I'm not able to dream or even imagine myself anywhere..cos i do not know what i really want...:( :(...I  wish i could back to school ..I would have had an ocean of choices to decide from...

Wondering!!

I have wondered about alot of things...many of them are really funny things...I don't know if such thoughts strike everyone or does it come to only eshmart people like me :)
I have always wondered if there was a concept of going to school for animals,will they have teachers who would give punishments :D..if at all they had,what would they teach them???
I always have felt animals have six senses...if you say no..how do you know???Whoever came up with the theory that animals do not have,has he spoken to animals??I have seen dogs crossing the signals properly though they are color blind ,when humans don't ;so will you call humans do not have the sixth sense!!NO!!
As everyone wonders...do ghosts really exist?? When pushed into a sea, will we swim even if we do not know...cos when i complain telling i do not know to swim,people ask me not to worry cos when in danger it seems we'll automatically swim!!WOW!! appo swimming classes ponnavan and edukravan ellam loose eh??Though i'm against that idea,i have still not learnt swimming :P
Will it pain if we hit non-living things???I know they are non-living , but still what if they are living and are just deaf and dumb...I dunno why sometimes i get such weird thoughts...When i was young Overa vettiya irundhutannu ninaikaran!! If you guys also have wondered, spill it out..cos you can always be happy there is at least one crazy person called sudha like you :)

Abstraction!!

Ok!!So I have decided to label my posts...Why you may ask??Just for the fun of it..got reminded of those funny labels that they used to give us in school.I used to be very specific of the picture on the label to suit the subject..like i always wanted Donald duck for maths books..mickey seeing through a telescope as label for all my science books..So when i saw the label option ,i got very excited...Also got reminded of what one of my gurus used to say .."More the abstraction, better it is!!"
So coming to the point!! I'm planning to post under three categories..
1.Moments to remember - Its all about me and  and about everyone and everything associated with me..
2.World through my eyes - Its all about my ideas,views towards a lot of issues...mainly it being  political or social.
3.Arbitrary thoughts - These posts could be a result of boredom..posts like "Do humans really have sixth sense"..things like that..
Why sudden abstraction??Cos I'm bored at home :)

Point out and Laugh!!! :D

Has there been a situation where people have laughed at you and embarrassed you in front of everyone??I have loads of such experience..there are few of them, which even by the thought of it, makes me laugh...I usually never prefer slippery roads,not for the reason that my legs would become dirty but just to avoid  the embarrassment of falling down.One of the roads which i used to take back home after school would become very slippery after rains..i always avoided them and took an alternate long route..but once one of my school frens who accompanied me that day insisted on taking only that route as it was shorter inspite of me telling him zillion times..he told me "eppdi vizharanu paakalam"..By wat he said i really thought he was gonna make sure that i dont fall but only then did i understand he wanted to see how i fall and make a fool of myself..so innocent i was..i went with him..as always fell..It was not only him who laughed at me..but a group of kids who were playing there got very amused..I tried to get up but all effort in vain...I remember i gave up and sat off on the ground and ask that wonderful friend of mine who still had not come out of his amusement to help me..Even now when i see him he laughs at me ,telling "This is the first thing i remember when i hear your name"!!.One more incident which i seriously have no idea how i made a fool of myself was when i was playing hide and seek..I hid myself in the most safest place thinking that noone can even find me..it was true noone found me cos noone even searched for me..I kept hiding  for around 20 mins..very proud  i was :P Actually the others stopped playing and went off home cos one of the guy's parents started screaming at all of us..unaware of this i was hiding like they were gonna give me some award if i won..you should have seen the happiness on my face that time :P..
I used to be really scared of my dad before (not now :P)..he never liked us watching TV,he was very shtrict! Usually i would watch tv until he came back from office..once i hear his vehicle's horn i would quickly switch it off and run inside the room pretending to study.. my bro has always warned me not to do this..One day i was so enthu that when i heard the horn i quickly ran and pressed the button to switch it off.(my tv didnt have remote then..so you need to use only the button on the tv)...my bad luck the button went inside...:O..wat else do you think would have happened!!the same dandanaka only!!
But there have been times even i have laughed at ppl...infact many times...but one that is unbeatable happened when i was 6 years old..I definitely didnt remember..my mom tells me whenever i ask her cos i love listening to it...As i told my dad was very strict..he was very particular about discipline and manners..But trying to imbibe discipline in a 6 yr old kid who wouldn't know what it meant is as unimaginable as it sounds..All i remember is my dad always asked us to leave our shoes in the shoe rack after we came back from school..my brother would promptly do it..but i have never done it,cos i was a kid,i never understood the seriousness, i always knew my dad would do it even if he shouts...It seems one day he got very angry that i didnt place it in the rack even after telling me a lot of times...so he thought he would teach me a lesson and he left the shoes outside the gate and asked me to go pick it up..even before i could..to all our surprise a street dog ,dont kno what it thought my shoes were,took it and ran away :P :P..and this was enough to make a kid of 6 to cry..my dad had to run behind that dog and my mom had to console me..it seems i was not worried abt the shoes,i was worried about my teacher who would shout at me for not wearing shoes to school, so it seems i immediately  told that i wouldn't go to school the next day!! (appavae bunk adikarudhula oru aarvam!! )..After that my dad decided not to show his acts of heroism to me :) :)
After all Most things are moments of embarrassment but lifetime of pleasure !! :) :)

Jobless!!

There are certain things that are to be and should be kept  to yourself.....cos others don't wanna know or see them..im talking about few of the irritating facebook status updates...especially the ones like ."I woke up!!"--so is anyone benefited??,infact its a headache, our walls are gonna be flooded with his next set of updates like "i brushed ':)'" ,"i peed" ,"i ate......"..why does it really matter to us??and there are other set of ppl who would be endlessly taking the apps like 'pair finding','what will happen to you tonight','find ur lucky number'  and they don't stop it with once rather they'll go on taking it until the answer that they have in mind comes..and the best part is they'll keep publishing it every single time they have taken it...Top it all are the apps like "How fat are you??" and there are morons who would take it,why ??don't you know how fat you are??you want the computer which definitely has not seen you predict it??and things like "I want food,subsidiaries,milk"???you would really think that someone is in real need when u see the notifications..but in the end it would be one of those virtual games where you can grow your own farm,build your building,form a mafia gang...what happened to the entire concept of playing outside??why are you farming on facebook ??After all this, you get really pissed, and you miss the status updates that really are worth reading or that has something to convey..lucky if they had been posted early..as early as 2 seconds back..or else it is pushed down the stack with the updates about the cow's fodder,milk, mafia bombs....Certain things that make me laugh..Writing status "Y do ppl flood my wall??" --even this floods my wall!! Not that i want a blank page when i open FB..its just that some things can be clearly avoided...cos not only me ,majority of the ppl do not want to know every single person's time to time update..there is a different place called twitter for it..and even then ppl shld  remember that others aren't gonna write biography on them,for them to kill others with their every second's activity..

Im in Love!!

With a whole lot of people around me....there are alot of ppl to whom i have never told how much i love them and how much they mean to me..many of them have not stayed long..but in that small span of time they made my world,they made me feel they are the best i could ever get..this post is dedicated to all those people who have in some way or the other influenced my life..
Starting from sowmya ,i don't remember how we became friends..all i remember is the endless phone calls we made to each other everyday,we used to talk the same things at times but still it just didnt matter..she was my closest friend then..I'm so thankful to her cos she was the one who introduced me to one new world ,the world of reading books,if alone she had not been there i would have missed something big in my life..not everyone gets a friend like her..Everytime i go to that library, i conspicuously remember only her...Next being manisha and ashok,my high school friends...the real meaning of fun i learnt only from them..especially manisha,no matter how many times we got screwed at home,with the same determination we would go back doing the same..i learnt how to be and how not to be from them..they made my high school days as colourful as it looks to me...and then pv and kk , probably i got to know them well only after school and before joining college..but they have been my bestest frens,who have always been there when i wanted...I always love talking to kk though we disagree with each other on every small issue ,its always been fun talking to him..one person with whom i can argue about anything under the sky..its again not easy to find people who will have knowledge on eveything you wanna talk about..and then PV...dont know wat i would do without him..i love him so much...he is the one person who would always give his shoulders just when you need them..
And then i go to college,again i meet a bunch of wonderful people..though it took a long time for me to understand people,,but still i found people who have changed my life in college..let me start with divya...alot of them call us sisters..but definitely we are not,have people seen sisters not fight,,one day when i was plumbing the depths of my memory,i realised we have not fought at all...its really impossible for sudha not to fight with anyone..we have had alot of difference in opinions..but never have we shown faces to each other..never have we fought for personal issues..prolly out of tension we would have raised our voice against each other..but personally a big NO....i have never told her how much i love her though she has told me so many lovey dovey things,the only reason being i never could define the amount of love i have had for her..
Then comes my vini..i have always wondered how would it be to have a sister,and if i had had one she would  have definitely been like vinitha..as fiery,as loud ,as restless as me and also has a biiig mouth to go with a small physique jus like me...i dont love her..i admire her...i admire her cos she is so brave ,she is intelligent,she is sooo compassionate,and she never loses her individuality,and a  minute you feel down she would be the one who would come running no matter wat state she is in..i have always loved talking to her, the feeling you get after talking to her is similar to the way you feel after drinking a choco drink..
And then.. reeni..probably the first person to whom i spoke to,no no the first person who spoke to me in college..god i hated her and i had million reasons that made me not like her and now i know i was so wrong...a girl with a big smile..who smiles no matter wat,who never gets angry which is something i admire the most cos i get angry atleast 5 times a day..thank god she was my roomie, i should apologise a million times to her for the way i have tortured her with my mood swings.. she would never show faces but would jus move away from that place silently and again would come bak and talk to me as if nothing just happened:)
Another different kind of person whom i treasure is DP..a person who has almost the same likes dislikes as me..whenever i am happy after a movie or a song or a serial or a dance..the first thing i would do is ,call her and tell..cos both of us look at art from the same perspective..and she would react to and criticise things just the way i would ..i remember the first day at college how happy i was to see her in the same class as me..
And then comes ila..prolly we became frens only recently,,but i have always loved going out with him..a person whom im so thankful for his open comments and for his tolerance to come out with me at any time of the day to anywhere..a person who always has done whatever i have asked him,.
And then the first guy whom i ever spoke to in college..CP..he has advised me at right times..though we have not opened personal books to each other..I have always looked for his support encouragement at every point,they have always meant alot to me..he gets a special place in the friend list along with all others i have mentioned...
And it wouldn be fair on my part if i didnt mention viswa..actually i thought i wouldn write his name..cos im totally lost for words for him..I actually dont know how to tell him i love him cos half the time i have only yelled at him..probably because i like him soooo much that i really am lost for words..one truly amazing idiot he is...viswa i really like you so much and you have been such an amazing friend and a brother....
and last but not the least..dunno if i should mention him here..its santosh ,we have come a long way..we have been really great friends..all i can think of to write about him..is nothing..i jus feel like smiling and telling him thanks alot..have learnt the real meaning of love,faith and trust and lots more...
Im soooo happy to have got you guys in my life...i just felt like writing this post cos i have never told how much i have loved or missed you guys when you weren around...All I would like to say is..Im soo Lucky :) :)

Disappointment!!

It might sound really weird (not for all) if i say college life is disappointing..I don't know what i thought college life would be when i entered,but i knew what i didn't want as a college life.I was not a freak or ,anything close to being cool at school, i was a big time stud bomb but still i had a lot of dreams about how my time in college would be.In fact I studied hard in school,thinking those were the last days of studying and i never knew it was just the starting. I blame it all on the movies,No college is similar to what they show on TV's or cinemas.Its not like you can go anytime to class and get away from standing out just because you came late.You can't throw rockets in class at faculties,You can't bunk college indefinitely,failing in exams was definitely not cool,things like HOMEWORK still exist and there are faculties who check :O ,can't go to labs at your will,the door is closed even if you are one minute late, suspension for mass bunking, there are no benches or lawn for ppl to sit ,you still have to wear an ID card, if someone thought talking on phones while faculties teach is really amusing,FYI you would be thrown out even if you look at your mobile.And yes you can't even whisper while they teach,if you do you surely are failing that semester or you get low grades..There are the frontbenchers who try relentlessly to impress the faculties to get marks and yet claim they are really cool and they don't give a damn to marks :P..There is no such thing called as cultural s,only then think about hooting or whistling :P Ragging..what a joke!!!Actually our dress code is better ,cos we are just asked to wear duppattas,there are colleges which asks them to pin it :P Girls and guys cant dance or go on stage together...All the more terrible are the hostel rules..girls need to be back by 6.30, you can be out only for five hours during weekend cos girls might run away if the rules are relaxed !!but WHY?????Wont i run away even in 5 minutes, why do i need 5 hours???Parents should call and tell the reason even if i have to go home, reasons like going home is not valid,they need a reason for why i want to go home.. Damn it,its my house and i want to go..why the hell are you asking...you cant make noise after 9 in the night,,its called SILENCE HOURS and we might be disturbing people who are studying..ya right!!You cant watch TV after 10 even if there is a cricket match or OSCARS or anything at all,at 10 the TV is switched off and remote is taken away...You cant celebrate birthdays,you cant watch movies,you cant have cameras,,,,,what only can I do????
By the time you get used to all these things and tell yourself that I am ready to adjust and I'll definitely put up with everything...you are in your final year,and it is time to say bye bye,,,
All these might sound really trivial,but first day at college when you are introduced to all these things, i remember my eyes welled up,,now it all looks funny and i really have stopped caring about these things..but when you have just passed out of school and you are expecting  colorful years ahead all you get is a black and white image that tells you "STOP DREAMING"..In the end its how you want to see it and take it..All this might sound easier if only your aims and desires and perspective were different..But for me it was really a tough time..
Immaterial of all this i have had fun,but this is how it would have been if i had posted it in my first few months in college...
PS: The directors of movies like happy days,kadhal desam and all the happy college days movies ,are either people who wouldn't have been to college or are people who are disappointed like me and wanted to live it through movies and deceive the young kids..

This ees Life :)

Time has changed!! So many changes around me..parents react easily to things which they made it seem as a big issue before ..or probably i should say we are all growing old :(...Anyway its a good change :)
Im gonna list all those things(whatever i remember) that have changed!!
Appo(when i was in school),getting up at 7:30 was a BIG SIN, I remember my mom yelling from the kitchen "Nee enna pana poriyo!!" and i was left with no choice but to get up.And now she makes sure my bedroom is closed so that even an insect cant disturb me and doesn't wake me up even if its 10,and if  I get up at 8 thinking that she is gonna kill me for this..she would say "Enna??got up so soon!!innum konjam rest edu!!"
Before, going out during weekends was considered waste of time and my parents always thought i could use it for studying!!...You get the permission only if you had asked 2 weeks in prior and u need to stick to conditions like coming back by 3!!and they would send the only mobile phone at home with me so that they can keep calling and asking "Where are you!!vittuku vara idea irruka??"
But now,staying home on weekends has become like a favor to them!!They never call me even if I'm late,probably my dad would call and ask "do you want me to come and pick you up?would you be back home safe?Do you want mom to cook food for you??",which makes you feel guilty when you are expecting an angry mom or dad calling!!
Before!! "amma oru 50 rupees venum" (very obediently) ..for that my mom would be like "Wat are you gonna do with so much money??" :O and I also would promptly tell all that i would do with that FIFTY RUPEES :)
Now she gives me in hundreds each time i go out and insists me on taking the card :P
I used to be so scared to ask even small things..starting from those kutti elle18 nail polishes,a barbie doll or even a board game,they used to promise me such gifts only if i get a centum in all the subjects in the whatever exam that followed knowing it was next to impossible (not that i was a buddhu :P)
Now do we even care to ask our parents, don't we right away walk to the shops and get them!! But one thing which i definitely need to be happy about is unlike most of the parents,my parents never forced me to study!!
These are the few things out of a big list which i remembered  that have changed hugely for me..
But I'm sure if my parents had not reacted that way before,I would have gone nowhere,kettu kutti suvarudhan..And if they reacted the same way even now,again kettu kutti suvarudhan!!
Aren't we all thankful to our parents who have brought us up so well and have treated us depending on our age and have given us the freedom of thought and expression at the right times!!
This post is to thank my parents and wishing them a HAPPY 26th WEDDING ANNIVERSARY!! :)

Welcome Sudha!!

After few years of reading blogs,and few weeks of deciding on whether to start blogging or not, i finally got the nerve to do it. By the time i decided that i wanted to blog,it was time for me to think what am i gonna blog on,surprisingly a lot of things came to my mind!Well, I'm gonna write all about what i want/wanted to do , all that i think that i can only talk about but can never do :P, and also the nostalgic moments,my political & religious views,and lots more... Its all about my perspective of the world;however it is, its mine. :)
