Been watching a few of the football matches lately. Football is fun to watch, cause it's so unpredicatble!! Like last night, just when I was sure there was gonna b another one of those penalty shootouts, Italy scored in the nth minute!! I was totally zapped!! I like the game cause it's so fast paced..I have absolutely no idea who's gonna win the world cup now! I had been thinking before the semis it would be Germany!

Was in the middle of this post when I got some good news :-) Me's got a job :D So in one moment I went from being an certified vella to umm.. well just a person with a job..lol.I'm very excited and nervous too ! :-)

Today's fortune:
A pleasant surprise is in store for you

That's what I just saw at orkut..lol.

Sure am surprised, happened so quickly, haven't even told everyone yet! I'm just hoping for the best. Let's see what the future has in store for me!!

A few pics :)

Delayed ..but finally here ..lol ;-)

The Golden Temple, Amritsar

It's really very beautiful..

Something about my trip

Typed this when I was on my trip, so am posting it just as it is..

Well here i am.10P.M. Khajjiar. date : Sunday, 18th June.

There is absolutely nothing here. Nothing. Just a vast green space, which would have been pretty if only it had been clean. Unfortunately, with cow dung,horse shit and Lays wrappers lying around it is everything but that. Why can't people here let anything remain clean! Why do we treat every place that we sit or walk in as dustbins? People do you really think you are walking in dustbins all the time? I appeal to everyone reading this.. Don't do it yourself and don't let anyone you know or are with do it too. Please don't throw rubbish around.. There will always be a dustbin around, and in case there isn't, there is surely one at home right? It won't be too much of an effort to just carry it a little while longer.Please :-)

I'd thought this place would be quite empty..lol..this is India dear :-) It's called a mini switzerland for some reason, and I can't fathom why..lol..yes, it's got forests around.. maybe i'll like it when i go and explore it more tomorrow.

I changed my mind the next day :-) The place is very beautiful..Well just like it said, it looked amazing when it was empty.. and clean!It rained the next day, sent away all the people.. cleaned up the entire place.. you could run around on the vast empty lush green spaces..was so much fun!!

Infact, after visiting all the places that I did, I've come to the conclusion that every place has some charm, some special thing about it, which may not be so easy to discover cause it's something out of the ordinary.. There's nothing much in the usual things, the malls, the shops.. you need to go a little out of the way, explore, discover.. and u'll surely find something which you love..You just need to search..

I'm off again!

I was probably born in the wrong country... I hate crowds and i hate crowded places! I hate the pushing and jostling that goes around.. Went to the gurgaon malls on sunday!! gosh.. those places r filled to the brim with people :-) You have to stop every few metres..and wait for the people ahead to move on..absolutely crazy!

Me's going away from the crowds for a while..lol.. am off for a vacation! Will b back soon :-)
tada..

It's good to be back!

Been away for so many days.. and yet right now I don't have anything to write.. No inspiration striking me right now :-)

Life's uncertain right now, and I hate uncertainty. College's over. Don't know where I'm headed, where I'll be working, what kind of work I'll be doing. The next few months are going to be unpredictable and full of change.. I just want things to settle down soon, and settle down well...

My take

Well well, a lot of activity has been going on in the comments section in my absence. I think it's time I spoke out too.

Firstly, whatever your caste maybe, it does not matter to me.. Why should it matter to me?Why should it matter to anyone? Why do we need to divide ourselves on the lines of caste in the first place?Yes, these divisions already exist and have probably existed from time immemorial. But do we need to carry them on to the future? Nobody's blood is impure because he is from a different caste..why do we even let such ideas get into our head?

Now, I don't believe that these protests are staged. I don't think people have stayed hungry for days because of some 'event management' and i do not think that a man gave up his life in Mandal -1 for event's sake!So please don't degrade someone's effort..

Yes, noone denies the fact that the backward classes have been opressed for centuries. and there is a genuine need to do something for them. Even in today's time, in many parts of the country people don't treat them equally.. which is very unfortunate. But reservation is not the solution. And that is the whole point which you're missing. Yes, we need action.. but why should it have to be only reservations? Do u think having reservations in IITs and IIMs would actually do them any good? Don't we first need schools to be set up for them? The government is just shirking its responsibility by taking resort to such populist measures. First let us make an effort to atleast provide them with primary education.. Go to the interiors, set up schools.. get kids admitted to them before you can talk of getting them into higher education.

You say they are disadvantaged because they cannot afford costly coaching institutes. Do you think all uppercaste people are rich? Why discriminate on the basis of caste here when the criteria is actually economic backwardness? Give them financial aid, scholarships, incentives.. anything.. but why reservations?

What is our ultimate aim? Isn't it equality? But reservations is only going to increase the divide.. increase the resentment.. If one class has been opressed for hundreds of years does that mean you have to do the same to someone else to get even?


As for Mr. Arjun Singh and just how much he knows, just read this news article to see his justifications and how hollow it all sounds..
