Why!

Why! Is there ever going to be any answer?
Such madness.. what drives these people to do all this? What goes on in their head?I can never understand..It surely cant be religion.. when ur firing indiscriminately at hundreds of people, the bullet is not going to differentiate on the basis of religion..

And why are we so helpless? every time. each and every time. We can only react. We pull up our socks for a few days and then it all fades out of memory.. and we're back..

what about our intelligence agencies? why have we become such a vulnerable state?

The U.S. had 9/11... and they've never had anything after that. Yet, we watch helplessly as time and again people are killed, buildings destroyed, cities are brought to a halt..

I cant even imagine what the people inside those hotels would be going through.. noone deserves to go through something like that. We're all going to die one day.. but to die in this manner? No.. This is not how its meant to be...

Its just not the way its supposed to be.. not like this..

and this..

I' Ll Be All Right, I' Ll Be All Right
Tu Hai To Tedhi Medhi Rahein, Ulti Pulti Baatein Seedhi Lagti Hai
Tu Hai To Jhoothe Muthe Vaadein, Dushman Ke Iraade Sacche Lagtein Hain
Jo Dil Mein Taare Vaare De Jaga, Woh Tu Hi Hai, Tu Hi Hai
Jo Roote Roote De Hasa Tu Hi Hai Wohi
Jaane Kyun Dil Jaanta Hai, Tu Hai To I' Ll Be All Right - (2)

Saari Duniya Ek Taraf Hai, Ek Taraf Hai Hum
Har Khushi To Door Bhage, Mil Rahein Hai Gum
But When U Smile For Me, World Seems All Right
Yeh Meri Zindagi Pal Mein Khil Jaaye, Jaane Kyun
Jaane Kyun Dil Jaanta Hai, Tu Hai To I' Ll Be All Right - (2)

Yeah Yeah Yeah I' Ll Be All Right, I' Ll Be All Right....

Chhote Chhote Kuch Palon Ka Dostana Yeah
Jaane Kyun Abb Lag Raha Hai Jaana Maana Yeah
Cos When Smile For Me, World Seems All Right
Yeah Saare Pal Yehi Yuhi Tham Se Jaaye, Jaane Kyun
Jaane Kyun Dil Jaanta Hai Tu Hai To I' Ll Be All Right - (2)
Tu Hai To Tedhi Medhi Rahein, Ulti Pulti Baatein Seedhi Lagti Hai
Tu Hai To Jhoothe Muthe Vaadein, Dushman Ke Iraade Sacche Lagtein Hain
Jo Dil Mein Taare Vaare De Jaga Woh Tu Hi Hai, Tu Hi Hai
Jo Rote Rote De Hasa Tu Hi Hai Wohi
Jaane Kyun Dil Jaanta Hai, Tu Hai To I' Ll Be All Right - (2)

- Dostana

Was listening to this..

who's gonna tell you when
it's too late
who's gonna tell you things
aren't so great
you can't go on
thinking nothing's wrong
who's gonna drive you home tonight

who's gonna pick you up
when you fall
who's gonna hang it up
when you call
who's gonna pay attention
to your dreams
who's gonna plug their ears
when you scream

you can't go on
thinking nothing's wrong
who's gonna drive you home tonight

who's gonna hold you down
when you shake
who's gonna come around
when you break

50 First Dates soundtrack -- Drive - Ziggy Marley

1. I hate the hyderabad traffic.Its absolutely cranky. people who crib about driving in delhi should try driving here.

2. Listening to music and singing along at full volume (maybe a bit of trying to dance to,to d extent possible :)) while driving can b a great stress buster. Not just that, it also helps in lowering ur anger and frustration at people driving insanely around thereby reducing ur desire to scream at them.

3. Do people seriously believe that honking has some magical powers which turns red lights green ?

Where do we go ? where can we feel safe ? another day, another blast. another life lost. and we wonder.. why? how ? why ?!!

Being an emotional fool hurts.

Har pal yahan ji bhar jiyo... jo hai sama.. kal ho na ho..

I am surprised at myself so many times when I look back at yesterday.. yesteryears rather..

Sometimes about the things I did.. and the reasons.. like a friend was asking me the other day, what were you doing at pagalguy.com when you had absolutely nothing to do with CAT and MBA and any kind of related stuff.. I hv no idea what i was doing there..lol.. I mean it started with the Community Service initiative which PG had started and then I just kept visiting.. still drop in there once in a few months, though i dont post there anymore.. :) but I used to like that place..

Learnt french fr a while, and a bit of german and italian too.. but i hardly remember that now.. Wish I had kept in touch with it.. i think i shall get back to learning some new language some day..

Learnt kathak for a few years.. again lost touch with it, though I enjoyed it a lot..

Even tried my hand at painting :)) that was I guess bcos Iv got a readymade arts teacher at home, yet gave up on it bcos a. I really dont hv a talent for it and b. It just needs too much patience :)

and then there was the exam counselling which I tried once.. hmm though I think I was pretty decent at it.

Like I'v been told.. I take up something but never finish it.. hmmm.. may be true I think..I dont noe if it is simply bcos I get bored.. or I find something better to do :)

What am I doing trying to blog :))

I think I need to pick up something new now.. been quite a while!

Phir Dekhiye

Aankhon Mein Jiski Koyi to Khwab Hai
Khush Hai Wahi Jo Thoda Betaab Hai
Zindagi Mein Koyi Aarzu Kijiye, Phir Dekhiye..

Been humming this song from Rock on in my head since morning..:)
I love songs of the movie..

yes distance does increase fondness at times.you stop taking people for granted and realise what they mean to u when u miss them, miss being around them.. something that iv realised after being away from home for the first time in life . have also realised that at times you need this .there were days when even though we were living in the same house we wouldn't find d time to talk to each other cause we were just so preoccupied with our own lives ..and now not a day passes when we don't talk ..its funny how being away can actually bring u closer..and sometimes you need that Jhatka :)

Dilbert on lawyers

I love Dilbert :)

Forget me not..

Its strange how at times a very small incident can trigger an avalanche of memories.

Just seeing an old schoolmate on facebook brought back memories of schooltime.. some not so nice memories cause she had not been particularly nice to me. But I was surprised at the fact that I still remember! It was such a minor thing and it still exists somewhere deep down in my head.. I wonder how many such memories stay buried deep inside our heads, only to resurface years later..when at times we cant even remember what happened the day before ( This happens especially when Im trying to finish my official timesheet :P)

I guess there are somethings that you never forget, even though you may think that you have. Particularly things which you just keep trying to forget..

Axe's chocolate deo ad raises stink with Govt

http://www.ibnlive.com/news/axes-chocolate-deo-ad-raises-stink-with-govt/71879-3.html

The advertisement shows a model wearing the chocolate-smelling deodorant, eliciting “objectionable reactions” from women.
lol.. really!!

One question that I just cannot find an answer to. And it keeps coming up again and again in my head. How do you defend a person who is guilty? And Im not talking about a small time offence here. Knowing for example that someone has committed murder, how do u get urself to prove in court that he's innocent? Is it just for the money? And how does it not weigh on ur conscience? Or do lawyers become so cold blooded after a point of time that it doesnt matter at all? I mean yes, everyone has a right to defend themselves.. yet..

Everytime I pass by a mirror, I cant help but look into it. Every single time. Self obsession is it?

Having a cook makes life so much easier.. Touchwood :)

At times the only way you can be happy is to stop yourself from thinking, analysing.. thinking about what should or should not be... and just doing. Doing without worrying.. doing what you want to do. Everything else can be worked around it.

It's finally raining!

I love the rain! Weather's become nice and cool.. It appears though that its become too cold for some here in Hyderabad.. sweaters are out :)) Sweaters in this weather!!! :) I wonder wat'll happen if they ever have to face the Delhi winters..:D

No work again. Although there are days when I really like that, today is not one of those days. I mean either I sit in office and work or I don't sit in office at all!! So I went and asked for work.. and now Iv got some very irritating work :)) Next time I'll know better :D

Every once in a while I get taken by the monotony of it all. Thats not how it is supposed to be is it?

Why dont we always get what we want? Because we dont know what we really want.

"Dil Ki Yahin Khatha Hai, Dil Ko Nahin Patha Hai

Ki Dil Chaahtha Hai Kya"

I can barely write a post which is more than 4 lines long now.. I think Iv forgoten how to write .. and read. Its been ages since I finished a book. Trying to finish one now, I hope I succeed. My
attention span has become ever shorter than before :)

At times I wish I could stay in a world of my own, without coming back to the real world.

Going down the memory lane can be injurious to mental peace at times.

Missing home..

Why does existence seem so meaningless every once in a while.

At the end of the day we're all alone. Surrounded by people all around, some of whom love us, some of whom care for us, some of whom like us, some of whom dislike us, and most of whom dont even know about our existence or couldnt care less. Yet, there is no one, no one who is going to be there forever.

People come, people go. A relationship that was so important yesterday means nothing today. Memories fade away, life moves on. And we carry on.

And we can only be happy if we learn how to not expect. Then everything you get becomes a blessing. Its not so easy and its not so tough. Its however so easy to let go of anger, disappointment when you learn to not expect.

Lakshya

Life can be so monotonous if there's nothing to look forward to.. if there's no goal to keep you motivated.. I dont think we get whatever we aim for always, but atleast it keeps us going.. And that is why.. success or disappointments.. there has to be something.. something that keeps you going.

Its not mine.. just heard it..

tu mill jaaye....to koi aarzooo na rahe...

tu mill jaaye....to koi aarzooo na rahe...

shayad isiliye khuda ne tujhe hamein nahi diya...

I wonder what I used to do before orkut and facebook existed :)
In fact.. what did I do before the internet existed..
And what about the mobile phone.. .

How Im so dependent on all of this.. sigh.
