Travelogue: Ahemedabad,Dramatics and guchuk!


After an eventful 5 days including the train journey and the IIM A adventure return to normalcy is a little hard to come to terms with.
There are some trips which are pure fun...some which make u wish u were home..well, this one was not only a supremely fun trip but a meaningful journey in terms of realizations.yes, yes philosophical crap, but so frigin true.
So much for first impressions.Brandishing someone as an airhead in the first few minutes of interaction and letting that paradigm influence all the thinking and actions is something which can make you want to kick yourself later.Yes, my shin still hurts.Prejudice which is based on nothing but hearesay and a few misguided interpretations is dangerous, it makes u blind to all the good that may come forth.Fortunately for me, I recovered in time to make amends...being a judgemental prick isnt all that great too.
It wasnt only about abstract revelations but also about cheese maggi, coffee at ccd at 2 am, vada pao, banta and 5 beds in a single room...it was about hanging out of the train to get pics clicked,new abuses, scouting for 'stamina sticks', cribbing about roaming charges and so much about friendship!

10 CREATIVE Ways to use a pig


1) to get the prfect pink colour while shopping for paints

2) stick some flowers in its mouth (provided it does not show a preferance to eat that particular type of flowers) and use it a decorative item.

3)people with big heads can send the pig along with their servants to buy headphones.Thus it can be targetted as a model for such an audience.

4)the flat nose can be used for block painting.Applying some paint and then asking the pig to run headlong into a wall can give rise to innovative decorative patterns in the room.

5)A game competition can be organised keeping in mind the circumfrence of the pigs gut.The person who is able to wrap his or her arms aroung the pigs stomach completely.wins!

6) in case the car/2 wheeler/cycle horn malfunctions the pig can be messed with to extract the charasteristic "oink" sound, which is almost like the "honk" sound we associate vehicles with.

7) a cute pig dressed in ribbons and bows can be presented to pork eaters to support the cause of PETA.

8) Useful in soap commercials like lifebuoy and Dettol: Dirty pig-Clean pig transition can be shown.

9) use it to crap on ur enemies.Hold the pig high above the enemies head preferably on a balcony.distract enemy with hot member of the opposite sex(ha) and then after having force fed the pig enuf food to feed an army, tickle its stomach.these deft motions will cause bowel movement and propel it to shit on the target ie: enemy

10)Big pigs can be promoted as a mode of non polluting transportation for little people.

11) when mean creatures run out of mirrors show them a pig.

ola new year!

okay so new year and all..this is supposed to be a post commiting myself to resolutions, but im not ready for that.Yet.
Resolutions are conventional and passe.Moreover they are meant to be broken and pave way for mutated resolutions next years.Its more effective if you actually dont make resolutions and then fall flat on ur face owing to ur vice and then have to rectify things.In such a scenario you know u cant falter, unlike the option of faltering on a resolution which always is very inviting and inevitable.:D

So 10 reasons why today sucked:

#1 lousy presentation
#2 no food
#3 everyone seems to be leaving
#4 battery running out
#5 excess baggage
#6 traffic jam
#7 getting kicked in the shin
#8 McDonalds shut
#9 burnt my tongue
#10 no movie

Wish i had slept through today!!!sigh!!

the year roundup..



Similar ending
the same fate
burning pyre
lonely grave
road that leads..
..the same conclusion
difference in perception
diverse and divided
momentary reality

in the end united…


Life is so simple,the concept of living even simpler.Everything has a beginning and an end, the end is always the same.Whatever path ,whichever course is take, the ending is inevitable.

Another year draws to an end..the cliches countinue, so the does the party planning, resolutions that I hope to sustain till january end;) and another gory week at college.Its been quite eventful,2006.Lots of changes,revelations,experiments,oodles of realisations and discoveries.It will probably go down as 'year of great importance' if i'm allowed to dish out year awards ever in my life.

the world of reality is far removed from what we deem it to be..its not all about frivolous talk, commercial pursuits and fancy accolades.
Freedom, which we take for granted is perhaps only an illusion which can be shattered at any given moment.Respect is something which we can be denied at any instant.Shame is what I feel, for the human race who are yet to learn how to not violate someones personal space.The rape of a schoolgirl by 4 students speaks for itself.Does a person have no sense of guilt anymore?Is a person not entitled to roam free, without shouldering a burden of fear?
