TIME-travel...

u wanna move back in time...welcome to ANDHERA PRADESH...u heard it right...my state ppl have really blindfolded themselves and have become insensitive to human-kind(mankind might raise few eyebrows :P)...i thought we just moved back to medieval times when i used to see riots related to religion...but now...we moved to primeval-times...we have even more differences to fight on...Andhra...Telangana...next Andhra-Hindu...Telangana-Muslim....next u wud hear abt killings if an Andhra guy married a Telangana girl!

"what is the reason for any division in the world?"...i was thinking...YES...its BLOODY DAMN POWER... take...chrsitians-muslims...christians-jews...hindus-muslims...now andhra-telangana....the root-cause is the same....a seat of POWER!the difference which was supposed to be proud abt becomes the reason to detest each other...wat wud u call it...when "Andhra Mess" is changed to "Telangana mess"(mess is not MESS...its an eating place in AP)... and funnier is the boards of "Andhra Bank" changed to "Telangana bank"...HEIGHTS...rather LOWS!

...every one wants power which wud get him stature /money...all this fight for statehood is just for money...as if u and I reading and writing blogs dunno abt it!...but are we doing anything...other than passionately discussing abt it in our living rooms and sleeping over it...signing online petitions and forming online communities on orkuts and facebooks and tweeting and retweeting....calling for United Andhra and Anti-bandh protests ...all on paper and on web...but who succeeds??...the one that makes noise..the one that gets on the roads and resorts to vandalism...wat does it make one feel...one cant do anything if one silently protests!its like younger/older sibling rivalry...the younger makes noise even though older one was right...and whom do parents lissen to??...OBBB younger one(experience se bol rahi hoon ;) ...sorry BHAI!)

...OK OK...i dont understand...if ppl...so-called-JAC really care so much for their so-called-telangana...y did they never raise their voice...when MLAs from their region dinnot live up to their promises...y do they think that just getting a state wud solve all their problems....do they even understand...wat wud a different state mean to them AT ALL...one more vidhan sabha and a garden around it...the secretariat...one more set of MLAS and ministers and their share of money to loot.....all official documents to be reprinted with TG(this would cost lakhs) on it....i know these are very irrelevant... but costs so much of tax-payers money...OUR OWN HARD-EARNED money....for all the destruction they are resorting to....whose money is all tht...OURS...not theirs...our leaders will anyway make up for all the personal vehicles u destroyed by looting u even more....

mebbe i dont understand ground-realities of a separate state....but does statehood solve the problem?grant the backward regions more aid....help the backward classes in the field of education from primary level..."Please do not start reservations now"....if something needs repair... sit and analyze...new state wud mean so many challenges....!DAMN...i do not understand where have all the sensible junta gone from AP..either they all are watching the TAMASHA...sitting in the media section or left their country for GOOD...to solve someone else's problems! yeah...its hard to be a part of MESS rite! i might sound very idealistic...but why dont we have a mechanism in which "evryone who cares have a say"...i wont say...conduct elections again....BUT there shud be a way out...for a common man to freely move on his/her motherland!

new year is here...i am sure...AP and HYD has really nothing much to celebrate than "walls within"!India was all abt celebrating the differences...not killing each other over it...I hope we all realize it...SOONER the BETTER!

YES I GOT IT!!!


Drivers License in U S of A....I know its like a child's play for most of u...but its like a 'dream come true' for me or lemme rephrase it ...."challenge come true"...not tht i am crazy abt driving on these roads or in this country...i never thought tht i cud drive on these roads...NEVER!!!i used to be taken aback.....seeing cars cruise past me at 45mph+ on city roads....basically i had a phobia...mebbe i ovverrated the whole thingy of driving in USA...but i am happy tht i have my LICENSE TO KILL :P
frankly its easier driving in US than in India...but a mistake costs a LOT...i guess i am saying things wat evry1 knows....newyz...topic change!!

YES ITS OVER....or SAD that it is OVER :'(

yes my Masters....its been nearly 2 yrs....and I dunno...how time flew...it seems like...just yday i 'touched down' in this pardes.....and i was cribbing abt the odd hourly job...and grades...and its all OVER!student life has yet again come to an END....i might never write a test again in my life....i might never burn the tubelight in the wee hours to submit my assignment past the deadline...i might never have summer vacations...i might never be as carefree as a student again!...yes i have become this BIG BIG GIRL....in a BIG BIG world :)
all i can say...All good things come to an END...and THE BEST is yet to come:D

Erin Brokovich!!!

wat a moV...!!!a masterpiece...!!a TRIUMPH of truth in reality!!
gives me a hope ...tht if determined to fight for what is right...U WILL WIN!!theres no simpler formula...sometimes things dont go our way while fighting...but dont give up...the moV and Erin are truly an inspiration..!

do i have to give a strong reco now...plzzzzz watch if u haven't !!

R U moVable??

i mean...do u cry...weep...sob...wail(ok... ok!!)...or shed a tear wen u watch those touchy-feely moviessss?? i cry a lot...i sobbed [:"|] for few moVs too.....i just get involved in few moVs and start imagining all those things happening to that protagonist... happening to me :|...main 'dil se' moVs dekhti hoon na!!

waise why do they moving??mebbe if the effect of emotions gets heavy which moVes and heart and that in turn makes our head heavy and as an effect tears fall from our eyes...hmmm...sochne ki baat hain!!!

few "moVable" moVs that i can think of- I am SAM, If Only,Rang de Basanti,Anjali,Akele Hum Akele Tum,Anand(hindi-waala),Page 3, A Walk to remember and actually many more!!!

haan...wanted to tell u all to try this...watch ur favourite moV ka favourite scene with its audio switched off....u wud be amazed to see that u missed soooo many subtle expresions and u will start realizing the importance of body language and depth in those eyes of those characters who play that role..:)

and the next time...switch off the video and just listen to that scene again....u will realize the importance of modulation and intonation in the voice of that character...i tried this out and the effect was intense :)

tidBITS :)

i realised tht i was becoming too serious in life...blog only wen i strongly feel abt sth...but i guess...thr r lotsa other things tht i wud not want to forget...;)

can u read/write something thoughtful when u r listening to songs??...can u feel the faint odours...wen u r playing loud music??

i think i cant...i cant even read a news article when a song plays in the background...
i guess...there is less parallelism in my senses...hmm!!!they can work together but they are not be at their best wen some other sense is busy doing its job :)

i discovered this...wen i was in LKO doing my homework in the afternoon...and the person staying in the apmt next to ours used to play loud music while preparing for his CWA examinations :O...thats when i learnt so many of hindi songs ...without knowing their origin ;)...cassette players hote they na...Rs.30/- waaley TIPS and T-Series audio casettes...hehe!!also...our memory used to be so good then...i learnt mantrapushpam...while roaming arnd in the house...getting ready to the school...wen my dad used to recite it evryday....my bro...an atheist..also knows it by-heart...;)

waise by-heart kyon bolte hain...he never learn it by heart...its just his memory...heart mein memory kaisa...pataa nahi!!...waise this generation is Google generation...do we really have to memorise anything in our life....actually i resist memorising anything...GOOGLE hain na!

haan u shud also chk out this nintendo wii game....u can play all those outdoor games right in ur drawing room or wateva room u can put tht video-game console in...i thought...this has to be a japanese invention...they will simulate evrything from games to life to emotions!!...chaa!kya zamaana aa gaya...can anything beat lawn tennis...on that green court ...during those evenings...naa racqet... na ball...chale tennis khelne...cha!!i sound like a daadi na!!am NOTTTTT;)

haan ...have u ever tasted fried paneer...if not R missing sth in life...while making paneer -tikka-masala...in which i have become an expert(haha)...i stealthily eat away half the paneer that i fry...did anyone tell u...tht u shud be putting fried paneer in hot water so that it doesnt become hard....also...did u also know...tht wen frying onions u shud put lil salt...so that they absorb the moisture and ur onions fry sooner :)

wat did i actually want to write abt....dunno...do i have to know ;)!!!

...i am never shaken up more...than when i witness these blasts...this time its more painful to see the trauma that people are going through...its LIVE...like some bond moV...people are open-firing at the crowd...terrorists come in a police van...last time it was hospitals...this time its gas stations too...whr all are we secure...how much of security forces are enough to guard all of us...a billion of us...we have the largest police force...beleive it or not....some fellow shoots at a kid 40 feet away...i mean what wud have tht innocent kid done to him??what is this madness?why is it so uncontrollable?is it jus our weakness of keep mum...that these guys are having wild fun at the expense of precious lives...ATS head is dead...all trying to save people...it was so easy for all of us sit and comment on how ATS and our security forces doing...ACP is dead...TAJ is burning...the battle still continues...they warn us..mail us..before the attack....but still nothing can be done..i mean...whr are we safe actually.....not even sitting in this home...i get restless...and jus show it on my keyborad and this blog...what is that a common man can do...participate in elections...choose a leader..whr r those charismatic leaders now...we jus have people trying to divide us....initially it was caste creed color...and as we have run out of options...now its being maharashtrian and bihari.....tommorow...each galli-waale wil become one gang...as if we have nothing better to than fight among ourselves....we show to the world hw weak we are...we claim UNITY in diversity....i only see more diversity and divisions...this wont change till ppl change their perceptions...!i dont want to live in a utopic world...i am not asking for tht ideal scenario...but cant we live... eat... walk... talk... freely in our own homeland??
