Just another day... in my life 2

Today was kinda hectic. Waking up late, my friend texts me that we are suppose to submit an assignment today first hour. Taking a bath and getting ready I rush up to my friend’s room. I was totally lost on whose room I left my shoes after Pongal celebrations in our college. BTW, my class bagged all the events. Now with the missing shoes I decided to write the assignment. Then another friend told that its in his room. [I’M LIVING IN A SHITHOLE OF A ROOM IN MY COLLEGE HOSTEL] One problem solved. We finish the assignment in a hurry and we reached college just in time.
That damn faculty of us didn’t even bother to ask about the assignment. Then he went on with his usually ridiculously dumb method of taking class. Then outta no where, he dropped this question. Why does English language has two types of script? Capital and small letters. We really dint know how to answer that. I was still thinking how this has any relevance to Operations management.

Then one of my class-mate, decided to answer that. He was sleeping till then and he dint have clue on what was going on. He said, “Sir capital letter is used for the first letter of a word” My God that’s the discovery of the century. That just made my day. Here below are some pictures taken on Pongal celebrations in my college. I have to submit an article for our newsletter by tomorrow I haven’t started it yet...

Just another day... in my life

I have been trying to write a post for a few days. I think I lost my mojo, dunno what the heck to write. Then I had this idea. I’m gonna tell you what happened on Friday last week. We as in me and my friends went to the Kongu University for a Management Fest. It’s almost a one and half hour drive from Coimbatore. We took to our bikes and headed on a road trip on a chilly weather at 7 am. We had to take like four pit stops in between coz we were driving like hell and our fingers went numb in cold and wind. Stop to having hot coffee, that was a given.

We reached there by 9 am. Boy those people really know how to manage time. The event was supposed to start by 9 and they were only late by what just 2 hours. It was eleven on the dot when they started. I was in the marketing game. Nearly 25 teams were competing with us. We cleared the first round. It was a written round; we were on top of the list. Next was a visual round, they would show some pictures of business men and brand ambassadors and were asked to identify them and the product they endorse. There was one team who put on their ‘I don’t know what the fuck I’m thinking’ hat and identified Vidya Balan as Rani Mukherjee. Those guys just made my day. Come on what kinda Dude wouldn’t be able to tell the difference from Vidya and Rani.

Then we progressed from one round to another managing to be on top till the finals. Finals we came to know of other people’s product. They said creativity plays a key role. Our thing was jewels and our product was jewels with hidden cam, GPS and stuff. Guess what other teams made water proof watch like that wasn’t existing for ages, CRT tube laptop [Boy I thought CRT tubes were obsolete even before 50 years] I think he did his BE in mannar & co Engg. College.

Even the judges screwed them to the core. There we sat confidently of bagging the first prize and guess what we dint get any not even third. If the results were going to be fixed up, then why the hell invite other colleges. I mean why waste our time, energy, petrol and money. But at the end of the day we had us. Friends taking a road trip, driving on the high way, stoping at deserted coffee shops, spending a day in activities, I would say that was FUN.

The Taking of Pelham 1 2 3 [2009]

Genre: Crime/Action.

Director: Tony Scott.

Cast: Denzel Washington, John Travolta, James Gandolfini.

Plot: A Subway Train is hijacked and people are held hostage. Hijackers demand ransom. What is their ulterior motive? Do they get away with this? That’s the story.

Denzel and Tony Scott join hand in yet another tense block buster. The Deadly Duo gave movies like Man on fire, Déjà Vu and Crimson Tide, was the cause of much hype for this thriller. The movie fell short to the expectations of the movie buffs.
The original released in 1974 by the same name was adapted from John Godey’s best seller. It was a first-rate heist movie with a classy end. The thing I love about remakes is that they share only the core. They have a different plot and different characterization that keeps you in the edge of the seat.
Denzel Washington [Walter Garber] gave an indelible performance as a train dispatcher alleged of taking bribe in some sort of train contract. I seriously think John Travolta [Ryder] should take lessons for swearing from Al Pacino. Apart from that, Travolta did a decent job as a demented, not afraid to die Hijacker.
I loved this conversation between Garber and Ryder.
Garber -She was unhappy but she understood.
Ryder - Well, that’s love right?
Garber -No that’s marriage. That’s a different thing.
The movie is a fast pace thriller ending up in the usual face off between the good guy and the bad guy. It has excess of what is required in a crime movie but it is shadowed by fast pace and presence of Denzel and Travolta. This is a perfect entertainer; I would recommend this movie, provided you haven’t watched the original.

I’m never gonna get a girl friend!!!

Like every other tom dick and harry I want a girl friend too... I mean just one girl, fall in love with her, marry her and have kids. That thing ain’t gonna happen. See, I’m friendly funny and stuff but never the conversation initiator.
What made me write this? Today I took a train from Chennai to Coimbatore. Usually its grannies or men who give me company. First time in my damn history of bad luck, I had a girl sitting right next to me. This girl was my type. She was homely. She was a nonstop chatterbox; mind you she wasn’t talking to me. She was talking to her friend.

There she was looking so pretty and here I was... pondering how to start the conversation. Half an hour passed by, am still sitting there not saying a word. By now it’s even weird to say ‘hi’. Come on face it. I been sitting there with her for more than 30 minutes and say ‘Hi’ outta no where... Not such a good idea.
Then a guy about 35 years got on train and sat opposite to me. For a while, I thought the years of bad luck were finally over. This guy had to come up and remind me, it’s gonna stay. Then he called someone and asked what was he listening too. Then called someone else and asked the same question this time it was an MCQ. He gave choices. Option a – Vettaikaran Option b – Ayan. This was getting odd. Then to top it he sang a song, guess which one? From the TATA DOCOMO ad. I like it too but you gotta face the facts. Nobody in the train is gonna get the lead and join him. We just ignored him. He calmed himself after awhile. Now why are we talking about this guy?

An hour passed by still not a word spoken. I mustered up some courage and asked her. “Are you going to Coimbatore?” She said, “yes” Me, “I m going there too... If I don’t wake up, could you wake me?” She had a really cute smile now, “Okay...” Now I gave a perfect imitation of Ross trying to say something, anything to Denise Richards. Boy that was awkward. With nothing I could think of to say I got on my upper birth turned on my mp3 player and.... dozed off....

DOOMSDAY

I have been hearing about this lately. Especially after Ronald Emmerich’s 2012, made people who weren’t previously aware of the supposedly impending doomsday blabber on this subject. I mean, just consider some of these theories. Like the Mayan calendar, what if it ends with Dec 21? Big Deal!! It’s not even in the same league as the 2009 playboy calendar ending come December. Bye, Bye Miss. July I‘m gonna miss you.

You can’t decide the fate of a gazillion year old planet on some stupid calendar. Probably the poor chap got bored or got a girl friend to work on instead.
Did you hear about the shifting of magnetic poles? That’s what I call one hundred percent full on bull crap.

After all these lame theories, if you are up for another pathetic hypothesis read along. This might actually work. From this day I’m gonna stop brushing my teeth and refrain from any sort of bathing activity. No, No the world won’t come to an end... No not yet. It is a gradual step-wise kaizen process. This is where I show I do MBA. In a month’s time my poor roomy would be the first one of many to go. May his soul, rest in peace. Possibly in the next six months, the whole of hostel will succumb to mother of all plagues, a plague so worse even rats would despise. By the end of the year it would be whole of South India.

Needless to say, its only a matter of time,it’s gonna wipe out life from the face of this earth. I’m not saying it’s possible but it’s probable.... :D

One night @ the railway station

It was nearing 9 in the night.The breeze was soothing as usaul in coimbature. The three chapathi's I had for dinner would do the trick, I strolled down the railway junction. It wasnt crowded as I expected, may be its because I was there a bit early, by an hour. Dont know what came over me, I started singing angel by Aerosmith.

I'm alone, I dont think I can face that, I m in tears and the crying that I m doing is for you...

Then there was a couple of giggles, I turned around to a bunch of college girls heading home for the weekend. Someone made a comment and they were giggling at me. Come on, if you didnt know Steven tyler,you are missing something. i'm the one who should be laughing at you people. This little incident dint stop me, I sat on a bench and continued with the words.

I saw this foreigner and her cute may be what 6 or 7 year old daughter. They dressed same, the bags they were carrying were same except the size. This little girl walked past me and she came back, looked at me straight in the eye. She gave a smirk. Whats with these people today? Does anybody in the world know this song. Damn, we are talking about aerosmith here.

This made me stop singing. I know I'm not even a mile around Steven Tyler, but I'm not that bad either.An elderly couple walked past me and said that a little too loud for me to hear. Now I know why they were giggling. Its not Steven, its me...

"what have you got a year or two? I have a whole life ahead" I mumbled feebly...



This happened during the peak of Swine flu. Never got around to post it though...

How to increase PR of your blog

This PR thing is in the mind of almost every blogger. How do we increase it? That’s the question. I’m gonna help you in this regard.

Before that let’s know what’s the significance of PR [Page Rank]. It’s a parameter set by Google, which indicates the popularity of a blog. They have a really messed up formula for calculating PR, and we are not get into details. If you still wanna know how it is done, then Google it.

I’m gonna tell you two methods to improve your PR.

First start writing really really good stuff in your blog. Now what you do is, go make some comment on few blogs, good ones. This will attract that blogger and also his followers. If he likes your blog, he will follow you. Most of the bloggers have a tool that gives links of all the blog he follows, in his blog. Your PR depends on the number of those external links to your blog. Also with increasing page hits, your PR will increase.

Second is an easy method. My friend did this and he got his reward. His PR is 2 right now. What you do is, search for all PR 2 and above blogs. Get the blogger’s mail id from profile, mail him and request him to add your link in his blog. This method is crappy but works like a charm.

I have a PR 2, I can be your first guy. Contact me if you wanna get back-links to your blog.

Adieus....

I LOVE

This is a poem written by my friend, Sathya for his girlfriend... 5 years and still going strong, I wish them a 100 years more together...


I Love…
I love the way you are,
I love the time when you are with me
I love the way you look as pure as god when you wake up in the morning
I love the way you fret when you get nervous and tense
I love the way you sigh(hhhuuhhhh) when you are tired
I love the way you try to control yourself when I make u laugh uncontrollably
I love the way, you get angry with me and wait for me to say sorry
I love the touch when I say sorry and you slap me
I love the way you fuss with your unruly wild curly hair
I love the way you speak Tamil although it is pathetic but incredibly funny
I love the spark of happiness in your eyes, when I say you are beautiful
I love the way when you keep on talking and I remain silent(Depends on my mood,of course!)
I love those memories of our time together in college/bus/cinemas/hotels/beach etc
I would love to see you in the white wedding gown you have told me about
I would love wrinkles on your face when you will grow old with me
I would love the time when we both will visit dentist in older age.
I would love to be slapped by you even at that time
I would love to make you laugh even after we are too old to even walk.
I would love to be puzzled to guess your mood, if you will be with me forever
I would love to make your eyes sparkling and smiling, whenever I will say “you are still beautiful”
I would love to live my whole life with you
I would love to protect you till my last breath
I would love to love you till death beckons
I would love to breathe my last in your arms
Because I will not be able to live without you
And will not allow even death to take you away from me
Because it`s you and only you in this world to whom I will ever say
“I LOVE YOU “
“I LOVE YOU”
“I LOVE YOU”

Relativity of time...

The morning broke out at 5.30 on Saturday, for everyone else it isn’t morning until the clock strikes 8 on weekends. We were in annaikatti. Annaikatti is the place we go for camping every three weeks. Luckily our group had yoga. Trekking was ruled out because we had that the last time. So it was either yoga or physical exercise. Thank Heavens it was yoga.

Yoga, how hard is it going to be? All we had to do is sit in one place, inhale and exhale; at least that’s what I thought. But our Director had other plans. He made us walk in a path embedded with pebbles pointing out. After that piercing experience, literally and figuratively, we gathered with mats in the Yoga Hall. It wasn’t just a Yoga Hall. It was a Yoga/ Dining Hall with an attached Kitchen.

Our Director asked us to meditate for five minutes. Then he turned on an audio of a soothing and spiritual voice saying OM over and over again. I said to myself, it’s only five minutes, I can do this. I checked my watch, it showed 7.12. I closed my eyes and started taking deep breaths. Then I heard our Director scolding the guys who were late. A minute later it was all calm and quiet, I could hear the birds chirping, such a divine music. Too bad it was disrupted by an awful crow. An Aroma so familiar filled up the air, yes toasted bread. Yummy! We are having toasted bread for breakfast.

Then I started thinking about the next day, Sunday fun day. I started making an agenda for Sunday. Now, for what seemed like ages, I was sure at least 15-20 minutes would have passed. With the pride of accomplishment, I opened my eyes and checked my watch. It showed 7.14..

The longest two minutes of my life...

Am I Unfaithful...

She danced with the breeze
Enchanting, enticing
She was irresistable
I wanted to reach out to her
Touch her, Caress her
Hold her close to me
Am I being unfaithful?
My Heart belongs to someone else
I was losing my grip
I gave in....

Then my girl friend said with a playful laugh, "Come on stop playing with my hair"

I just LOVE my TV

Me and my friends planned to go to the movies this Saturday. So we all gathered up in my place.But when we were about to start, this freaking rain started pouring like anything. All our plans got spoiled by the fulminant rain.

So we went in my room and turned on the tele. Guess what? Incredible Hulk on HBO. Come on, who would miss a movie like that? With all my friends huddled in my room, we made some popcorn and it was really a blast. If it wasn’t for Direct Tv, we would have been bored to death…

Then we were just chatting for a while. I flipped through channels and came across Four Weddings And A Funeral in Star movies. We couldn’t resist, we sat there watching it till the end. All thanks to DirecTv and DirecTv Specials for saving the day.

U2 The Greatest Rock Band Ever

U2, the Irish rockband has been rocking since the eighties. Let me ask how many bands have been together for that long. Not many. With Bono on vocals and Edge on strings, they have made awesome soundtracks like Vertigo, Elevation, Sweetest thing, one, with or without you and I can keep going on and on for a whole day. With U2’s 360 tour includes 14 cities in Europe and North America. I wish I had couple of U2 concert tickets, to watch them play live with your friends, would be spectacular.


Another band that’s on tour is Metallica.One of the best heavy metal bands. One of their songs “Nothing Else Matters” is like an anthemn for all music lovers. MetOnTour, the tickets are sold out in Indianapolis, Montreal, Dallas, San Antonio and few more cities. Grab your Metallica tickets before all of them are sold out.

Chickenfoot is a newly formed band with the bests. Vocalist Sammy Hagar (formerly of Van Halen and Montrose), bassist Michael Anthony (also ex-Van Halen), guitarist Joe Satriani, and drummer Chad Smith (of the Red Hot Chili Peppers). Go grab some Chicken foot concert tickets it would be really fun…
