Weekends!

Weekends! This is something which everyone is looking for. Even I do it even though its just Monday today. Its like We are getting Independence every week. An Independence day for us. Lot of people celebrate it some don’t even take that break.

 

Its celebration times every week atleast in Urban India. Disc, pubs, Bowling alleys , Hotels , parks …… all are full and rocking on these days. The preference of location depends on person and their mood.

 

So after a long long time I was free and wanted to enjoy my weekend to the fullest. So what’s so special about this weekend?

 

Many say man evolves over centauries of years and wonder whats the next step for us. May be we will have a extra hand and bigger mouth and little smaller brain. This is as per the evolution theory that things that we use often … develop and that which are hardly use become extinct (like our tail)!

 

But I evolved over this weekend! I wanted to celebrate and  I set out to celebrate this weekend but it was a even more interesting when I look back and see what I did and what I set out to do. The weekend was very dark!

 

All through the weekend there was this useless question which I was thinking over and over …. again and again. I know I cant change things by thinking harder and longer but I did. Sometimes the brain knows that 2+2 is 4 but the mind never admits it. So what would you do! You have a enemy inside and it very hard to fight against this enemy.

 

There was one question which was killing my mind the whole weekend and it was “How to check whether a Binary tree is a Binary Search tree”.

 

It should be puzzling for many even me when I look back and see how much time I have spent in thinking about this Question ignoring the people around me , the pleasure around me , the beauty around me. Is this Binary tree going to change my life. May be it can make me little more rich little more arrogant (which I am already now).

 

Life is more than money and brain! Its also about looking ahead! So I have decided to look ahead in life. I know that my life is not Binary tree and its more than that. I remember a dialogue which says “Love is like a page in a book and you don’t throw away the book because one of the pages is torn!”

 

There is nothing more important than the moment that is now! Its not the moment that it was and it will never be the moment it will be. So lets enjoy it to the fullest and for me pubs ….. Parks …… are not the way of doing. I do it my way the Highway!

 

So lets welcome the greatest weekend that it is going to be. Even lets enjoy the greatest moment that’s it is going to be!

 

And any girls out there single in Bangalore just drop me a mail ………. Because its going to be a Great weekend!

 

(I am thinking about calling up Gmail support for increasing my mailbox size to 10 GB).

Beautiful Shreya!

Ok coming to the Million Dollar Question of who my GirlFriend is? I have kept this as a deep secret in my Hearts for a long time and its time that the world knows it.

She stays in Delhi and she comes to Chennai occasionally to see me. She is a great model.

She once posed for Indiaglitz.com and that picture is here for your viewing!

Happy Girl Friend Day (Remember April is just near by) and I request everyone to vote for Our Captain in upcoming elections!

My friend's valentine project - A prelude!

I have a nickname in my office "Rajini". I got this nickname because I once as acted as Rajini(The superstar in India. I actually made fun of his styles in a play). It was a successful play and I became famous after that as Rajini in my office.

Ok why Rajini now ……. Yes this post is about a superstar that I know of. The reason Rajini was successful is that he was different. He had a different style, different hairstyle , and he was different in everything.

Yes people are known by their difference. I identify anyone by the way they differ from others. If everyone were same then the whole world wouldn't have been interesting. Yes difference is what brings us together and still separate us.

But some 7 years ago I met a different guy. He was so different from others that … I liked him. Actually anyone will like him. He has different way of speaking, seeing, thinking ……. And this blog is about the way (obviously different) he set out to celebrate his valentine's day.

Seven years ago when we were studying at school he was called scientist because he is one. When people used to ask him about his future ambition he used to say that he wanted to become a scientist (Though he is not a scientist by profession now). Though I don't want to comment about his scientific talents but he looked like on. He has a look which makes people think that he is looking deep inside you soul searching for your deepest secrets. He never used to comb his hair (atleast it looked like one). He walks straight with a sense of arrogance 'Is anybody out there to challenge me'.

Yes everyone feared him atleast the teachers in that school. He had sent two of them out packing as they were not able to answer his Questions in chemistry and physics. I still remember the question he asked the then chemistry teacher about the Avogadro Number. The following statement in Chemistry book is as follows "1 mole of any element or compound has Avogadro number of atoms in it" and he had a question the validity of the statement.

But the question which was big hit among everyone in school was not the question he asked but was asked of him and that was not asked by his teachers but on of his classmates. She was asked so many complicated questions by him when she was taking a seminar on food poisoning and preservatives that she asked him the ultimate question. "Everyone is not supposed to know everything?". Yes she was true even my friend was true about this statement. He was not able to understand her statement that he stood there confused asking her …… And I had to interfere him (I used to sit beside him) and tell him what she told him. It's a different thing that she asked sorry to him later in that day.

This is not the question which suddenly came to her mind. But I think this is something which she would have thought over again and again endlessly …. Rehearsed it again and again before she told him. Yes she told it without any hesitancy or fear to a man who had instilled fear in everyones mind by asking the right questions to the wrong people. But she was upto the task and my friend never asked any questions to her after that.

What I understood from him is that Its very easy to ask question but its very hard to answer them. And my friend was lucky enough to be on the easier side of it.

He became so much good in questioning that he started to answer most of our questions by questions. Once in one of the technical interviews they asked him a question "What's the difference between arrays and pointers ". A normal Computer Engineer would have listed soe of their difference. But he didn't do that but just asked them "Tell me the similarities between arrays and pointers and I will tell you the difference". And the best part is that he got through the interview.

After some much description of my friend you may think that he is a guy of arrogance. but he is not. He is such a good guy but little different. He is so confident about his different ways that He makes things look right even if they are not.

 

Ok lets get to the point. I liked him and most of mates should but I really dont know if Girls will like him. He is intelligent with good reasoning which most girls' don't understand. He was very popular among girls in school but they were more afraid of his questions that she stayed away from him!. He was very successful in school , college and even got recruited by one of the top company's in India. So you make think whats the big problem with this guy.

 

Yes , there was a big issue. Every year he felt very lonely on one particular day. That's   the valentine's day. Yes he was single and that started to haunt him. So Raj was not the guy who would sit back relax for the issue to be resolved but get into action. We know how intelligent he is and how smart he is. But big men fail in small things and there greatness lies in learning from their mistakes. But our friend is not used to these mistakes and failures.

So whats next ……… he had a plan for that which he thought was foolproof   and set out himself on the mission impossible……… Getting A GirlFriend . Obviously it was a plan with timelines deadlines. So what happened next. Really even I don't know. I should really call him now. Will continue later!

Maths of Life!

Mathematics is something I like. It has been my favorite subject from childhood.

 

But off late I am puzzled by the mathematics of life …..

 

Here are few.

 

 

If you don’t have a Girl Friend you have a worry

But if you have a Girl Friend you have many worries

But if you have many Girl Friends then you have no worries.

 

            More Tension results in less work

No tension results in no work

 

As of now I have no worries and no work but that doesn’t mean that ……..

 

I love her doesn’t mean that she loves me

 

I am a friend of him, she is a friend of him but still she is not my friend!

 

Only in Life, if you take this step forward you go really baaaaaaaackward and that’s Marriage.

 

            He killed me but I can’t kill him.

 

(Come on Jack stop writing PJs you are not good in that …… But what can I do, these are the things that Girls like .And I like keeping them happy).

 

Ok getting into serious thinking (what’s that ….. really I have stopped writing for 5 minutes now).

 

No way possible this is what you are.

My Perfect(?) LoveLetter!

Lets clarify few things .I was busy(very busy) for the past weeks or two as I was preparing for the “road not taken” .

But couldn’t stop from posting things and deprive my precious readers from the fun of good reading (Dei this is too much). So I decided to post some forwards which I felt are good. You can see them below. But I got a lots(?) of feedback that I should stop doing that.

 

I have decided not to post Forwards anymore. But again I am not going to delete them, which I have already posted.

 

I have to write today and I have lots of topics to write and following will be a brief introduction what you can expect in this space.

 

  1. My friend’s valentine project!
  2. A Girl who thought I am smart!
  3. Moment of inertia in Life

 

But when I am sitting here writing something on a computer which is not mine about the Dream girl whom I have never seen without worrying about food cloth or shelter. Yes I earn a lot in surplus then a normal Indian does and I have self invented worries than real ones in Life and I am well placed in Life.

 

I don’t know what hunger is .I have been never told to eat limited food. I was not made to drop out of college or made to walk 40 miles in search of money or left alone to take care of my family financially or emotionally.

 

I have never borrowed money from others for my education or food or clothes. I have never worked nights out.

 

I have lived a perfectly normal life and I tried to find a reason behind it and ……….

I had only tears in my eyes.

 

Yes I have led a perfectly normal life because a person has gone through all these pains himself and made sure that I don’t go through the same.

 

He was a college drop out. He was once made to walk 40 miles to reach his house when his father died. He was jobless for 6 years after leaving college. He was once asked not to eat more food. He had to support other people financially even when he was jobless and he left home in frustration as he couldn’t do it. Yes he left home ……….

 

Yes people have problems in life and there are times when everything goes wrong …. when your father dies in your earlier age and you have to support a bigger family and you have nothing left. But you can still survive and turn things around as Tomorrow never dies. Yes He should be larger than life here like James Bond to do that.

 

Yes he is and  he was instrumental in saving me from all these pains.  Yes He is my Father. I am proud to say that He is my Father. I can earn lots of money in the years coming but I will never be able to repay him for what he has done and I don’t intend to do that.

 

He has never told me that he loves me or he cares for me. But I know he loves me and cares for me than any living being in this world. I have sensed perfect love in him A boundless unconditional love. If there is a God I thank him for giving me this father who is not perfect. Yes My father is not perfect. I agree. But his love for me is!

 

Father, I don’t know if I had told you that I love you but here it is “I Love you very much”. I am proud of you and I will never let you down at any stage in my Life. Father I love you so much that it took 23 years for me to tell you. But I and you know it the moment I was born.

 

I don’t know about other’s father and I don’t want to know as well because …….. He is what he is … ‘my Father’. My Father is a Hero. I remember telling stories to my primary school friends that my father works in army and he is commander and how he saves lifes of people. I used to tell them daily stories …… unlimited (yes I was a good story teller even at the age of 7 and I had many fans then). But Father you are a better Hero than all the Heroes of my stories.

 

Father, I don’t know whether I will be as successful as you are and I know I will never be.  But I will try to make you proud in whatever ways I can. Father you have the best woman in the world as your wife. You have two children who are brilliant than most others. You have great friends that I envy for.

 

Father you really rock. Yes you have retired from your service yesterday but still I feel there is lot left  in you to give to this world. I want my children to be like you and your wife. I want your help for this (yes I am selfish) . Father I wish you great success in whatever you do and want you to enjoy this life, I want you to travel a lot , Read a lot , ………

 

Yes Father , I Love You .

 

Thanks and Regards,

son.
