B'day babies Debo and Soumya during the birthday celebration. Look at all excited PJ, crying soumya and thumb licking Debo he he. They both(Debo & Soumya) are throwing a party at 7:30 P.M tonight.(Picture will be uploaded soon). :)

Holiday mood has set in. Christmas holidays for 2nd years starts from 21st December. As most of them had booked their tickets on 22nd night I am expecting a biggg bash in the hostel on 21st night. :) Few guys started partying tonight only. :)

Around 8 p.m, I reached the birthday party in Dhaba express, Nungambam. :) The party had already started.
At the party in Dhaba Express.(Check Jijo's Pink shirt - Special report by reporter PJ below :) )

We all (Around 20 ppl) had a wonderful dinner. Thanx to Soumya and Debo. They hosted the party really well. Whole of Asha Niwas 2nd year girls was there for the party. Jijo eating for tomorrow also(10 servings saying that it was a small plate - True reason: No mess tomorrow he he :)), CR coming to the party to see if we are eating properly, singing birthday song for people sitting in some other table & Soumya raising a false alarm about losing her debit card, was the highlights of the party. There was a photo session after the party too.

Jijo likes Pink. Why? (Special report by reporter PJ) - Just for fun. :)

For the birthday party Jijo wore a pink colour shirt and then he ordered for a pink coloured ice cream. Even though the hotel people did not have it, he made them go to some other shop and buy pink colour ice cream for him. Why Jijo likes pink? Does he like everything that is pink? Reporter PJ was also wearing pink colour dress. :)

Twilight New moon review and beyond+ 21st Great day for Next to D cell leader

Rating:3 1/2

News:

Today is Sofia Saxena's(1st Year) B'day. Wish her :)

21st December 2009 will be a big day for "Next to D cell" head. He is presenting a paper in IIT,Chennai. He is the only student who is going to present his paper!!. Wondering why? Others are professors. Great isn't it. :) I wish him all the very best to come home with a medal.

Twilight New moon review and beyond:

Yesterday I watched this movie Twilight New moon. I hated the ending as much as I enjoyed the whole movie. But I should say don't miss it. Its worth watching. :)

Having already seen Twilight, I was keen to watch this movie. Reason behind me hating the ending is not because it wasn't great but I enjoyed the Jacob's(Lead role in this movie) character so much that I didn't want him to lose. What an unconditional love? Its absurd that Edward(Hero) the vampire ditches Bella(Heroine) for some stupid reason and then saying its for her good. Even though the director couldn't show the exact emotion of Bella(As described as pain in the book) when she loses Edward, Jacob,the werewolf clouds it with his abundance of love and care. When compared with Jacob's act even Edward who is willing to sacrifice his life assuming that Bella is dead, seems like not a great deed.

As this twilight series by Stephenie Meyer was so interesting and knowing that Eclipse and Breaking dawn, which are the 3rd and 4th part of the book had already been released, with no time I got the summary of those. I was curious to know more about Jacob, but was saddened by the fact that Jacob continued to get only pain in-return for his love irrespective of whatever he did. Viewing him as a friend, he will be a dream friend that any girl would imagine. When Bella says to Jacob that "I have greater love for Edward than you" she didn't know how much pain it can cause Jacob. Even though it was a fictional story the author has brought in so many wonderful emotions related to real life into it. Whaa...!

Is truth ugly?

Like some say weirdness and ambiguity can never be separated form clarity and perfectness.

Some define quality is the most important. Class is what stands. Crab! If this is true then how "No reel corner" also called as "Kutties" gets more business than the original "Kutties". Its only because of its location. The original kutties is just located few yards away but people from Loyola got used to "No reel Corner". Original Kutties serve far better "Bread omlette",Juice & milk when compared with NRC but footfalls are less. So my point is situation decides who is the winner at times(This is a important word here. Without this my whole argument will be flawed) rather than quality ,class and whatever it is!!

Small fact:
"No reel Corner" or "Reel Corner" Recently one of our LIBA family member was cheated by the NRC shop guy(Not the restaurant guy). He gave him Rs.100 and the shop keeper said he gave only Rs.50. He didn't wanna fight there so he came and told me. So people remember be careful about even small things like this.

Belated b'day wishes to Niket and Hepzhiba. (12.12.2009)
Its Ashitha's B'day(1st year) 2morrow. Wish her. Oh I forgot she has gone for vacation. If you have her phone number wish her :).


Do you know(Permission Based):


Today I got a mail from an unknown mail Id which had photo of a 1st year girls full name written more than 50 times, as an attachment. It also said that a 2nd year guy is deeply in love with this girl who is from Tamil Nadu but speaks malayalam. The guy also knows both the languages. (Advantage) Even though he is not scared to tell her about his love, he doesn't wanna lose her too. I know that guy is an awesome character and I pray that his desire should come true. :) I wish this story gets a fairy tale ending.

Day before yesterday I had gone to Sea Shell restaurant with few friends and there came a girl and a guy(Came little late) from our college and sat along with us. We had a decent(quality) but expensive food. After the dinner while we were returning I asked the guy sitting at my back in bike "Does she has a boy friend?" "Are those two who came late, couples?". The guy who recovered from an arm fracture recently was shocked to know that I am not aware of the fact. :) He said "She is not 'sing-al' anymore. She has found her love of her life and even her parents know about it. Cool isn't it. Good to know about the love story within the same class. (Section A).

Is truth ugly?

I heard about a guy from first year who refused to sit near a girl in the class just because she was not beautiful and not his friend. He went on to remove his chair which was near that girl during the class and sat some where else. Even though this happened long back I still wanted to write about this because these kind of things are the worst of behavior. Either you are discriminating or you are a racist. This is not cool. If some girl/guy treats you like an untouchable how will you feel. But I cannot reveal your identity as people will start judging you. Try not to hate anyone because of their appearance. Remember appearance is deceptive. Too much of advice huh. Once in a while I will write stuffs like this. Please bear with me. :)

Story in Pandoras Box 2 : MAANrated Night 1

Stress buster + Back to PANdoRas Box + Get Well Soon

Rating: 3 1/2

News:

Today is John Paul's (First year) Bday. Wish him.

People Parul Jain, one of our LIBA family member is sick. Please pray for her. She is being well taken care of by the "Asha Niwas" girls and I 'Vish' she recovers fast. Get well soon "PJ". :)

Exam time for first years. Few tips to do your exam well.

1. Study

2.Write the exam

3. Don't read this blog for some exam advice.

4. Read this blog if you are too stressed out. Believe me I have heard testimonials of people reading this "Pandoras Box" to relax even before interviews.

That's it...Keep simple things simple..:) Exam is not end of life. So relax and give it your best shot. All the best to you all.

As per the poll result conducted in this blog "PANdoRas Box" got more votes than "AOC".
So I have decided to retain the old name and new exclusive blog will be called as PANdoRas Box 2.
The fictitious news will continue to be in PANdoRas Box 2 (Exclusive) and this blog will have all the aWFul To awesome happenings in LIBA.

New column:

Do you know this? :)


Our buddy in first year who seems not so small, very tall and extremely athletic which you cannot make out by his appearance has fallen for a girl in the recent "Next to D cell" event. This guy who is also a follower of this blog was attracted by this girl who is from the 'State of mirchi'(Not our college). Also he confessed that he gets attracted by tall and beautiful women younger than him. Hope he finds one soon. Dude don't worry about the girl till the exams get over. You can spend time on this during the Christmas vacation thinking about this. :)

People you might wonder why again this column. This is purely permission based. The one without permission will become fiction and move to the PANdoRas Box 2.(Exclusive) ;) Recent story in exclusive blog is "Ever heard of Despo List" :).

Is truth ugly?

I always wonder why some people are so being scared to own what they say. If you can't say it before a crowd or before the concerned person then don't say it. If they hear what you said from someone else it will be even more bad. But if you don't care if whom you are talking about will come to know then go ahead. Theory of connecting dots will act accordingly.

Some people came and told me its high time you should spread rumors about yourself. Come on people! How can I ? ;) But I am sure if I am taking someone for a date the world will know. I have nothing to hide and I am not scared. :)

World Aids Day + Business plan competition + Can u and I start a business?

One solution to stop Aids is to "Do nothing" :)
Rating: 3

News:
Yesterday was Harsha's B'day(1st year).

Business plan competition was a great success. LIBA created 8 entrepreneurs in India.

How many in-house entrepreneurs did LIBA create? Why can't you and I start a business without people appreciating the idea[You should believe in your idea not others]?

Yesterday I had met two real estate brokers who quoted commercial land price anywhere between 50 lakhs to 1.25 crore in main areas in chennai. 600 square feet land in Ashok Nagar cost 20 lakhs. Will this rates come down? This might seem scary for a middle class person but let me tell you about a person I met.

Rexy owns a small shop named "Jesu Fancy stores" in Vadapalani which is in a rented space. The shop seemed small but the items that was for sale seemed attractive. I along with my guide started conversing with her. She has 3 children. Married but living alone. No family support as she is from Delhi. Her Tamil knowledge is decent. She along with her 3 children had come to chennai for living in 2003. Now she manages three things. Shop, tuition for children nearby & she does interior design for houses. I saw some of her work and it was excellent. I am sure she will make it big soon.

If a lady without any support can achieve in life why cant you and I do it? May be "Next to D cell" should bring such unnoticed entrepreneurs to give a talk or something. They can inspire students for sure.


Every Individual is a brand:

Let me give one good thing about Harsha as it was her birthday yesterday. I think she is a modest female, who at least smiles at you anytime you see her outside if she knows you. This I think is a very good attitude. Why this becomes a good attitude? Because there are people who will know you, who used to chat with you but still will smile only if they are in some need. :)

'Thank you professors' + Syfins Bday

News:

Today is Syfins Bday. Wish him. Yesterday his birthday was celebrated without cake and birthday kicks.

Day before yesterday I received a mail from my operation professor Dr.Arun Madapusi saying what I am doing in this blog is "Terrific". Also our professor Dr.Chandrashekar Pandey told me that he reads my blog and comes to know about the happenings in LIBA through this blog. I am really happy that people believe in what I write. I will continue to keep everyone updated about what is happening in LIBA.

Syfin Bday Boy - Pray for him. Let all his wishes come true.

Dr. Chandrashekar Pandey is a HR professor in LIBA. He is also incharge of the cultural & sports club of LIBA. When you talk to him you will never feel like you are talking to such a big guy. He is one professor whom you can easily mingle with and learn too.

Also everyone of us should know that "Vital Committee" is working hard to accomplish the task they have taken up. Everyone lead by Prof. Susan Thomas is doing a wonderful job. First years who are helping in accomplishig the task and other vital committee members who are working selflessly needs to be appreciated for their good work. Keep the good work till the mission gets over. :). Any student if you get an opportunity to help in the Vital Committee's mission please do so.

 Is Truth Ugly?


I don't want to name or give hint about people who are doing this but I want to put this message across. There are one or two people who already started blaming vital committee for some reason or the other. I would request you all to be patient. You might not know how hard they are working for this and the pressure they are under. They have worked hard for almost one and a half years. Don't use your "freedom to express" to break their hearts. Before saying anything remember even you had a chance to take up this mission. If you feel its very easy even now you can do it.

NewPANdoRasBox - Next biggest thing

Rating: 3

News:
One close friend of mine just called me and told me how different and interesting is this New PANdoRas Box. What are the changes that are made to this new version? There are more than one author. You will never know who is writing the story that is featured in this new version. The stories are purely fictional(based on true events) and will be opposite to AOC. As I have seen lot of cry babies in the past I have decided to keep the access to the content totally exclusive [Which means if I believe that you are a very close friend(Friend is 'ok') of any of the cry babies your access to the blog will be restricted]. The blog readers are expected to maintain confidentiality about the whole story, at least its origin. Ah..no its just a fictional story so why maintaining confidentiality. Spread the word if you wish along with the message that the content is not true. he he :). This will also prevent my buddies to copy my original idea very easily. [I am seeing so many people "showing their innovation".] he he.

I will update the heading of the story in this blog. Locate the exclusive reader to gain access to it. :). There are many of them. Yesterday there were two stories. "Train Tale 2", The 'Impression' Party. A sneak into the picture of the Train tale story.

   








Train Tale 2

All my blog followers[At least for one month] will gain access to the new blog,the moment I receive their mail @ knightrider2702@yahoo.in. [I am spending so much time to entertain you guys,that's why expecting your response.] Only condition for my followers to gain access would be, they need to be 'sportive' enough to differentiate fiction from fact.  

Every Individual is a brand :

One day I was chatting with a first year guy and he showed me a mail in their yahoo group. There is a girl in first year girl named "Neelambari" who sends birthday greeting to everyone in her class with a message.  It is "Awesome".:) [Hope it is a news to many second years].

Also the concept of celebrating all the birthdays of their classmates at month end by buying cake for all of them by one section people sounds totally cool. :)

Puzzle solution- The truth is.... :)

Rating: 5

As the page view reached 10,000 today, I thought I will reveal a truth not many knows. :)
Did any one ever thought what was the puzzle I was talking about? What was the reason behind this blog? A guy who even felt giving 'task' to first years not a right thing suddenly started commenting on other people and their activities? I still remember when we all went to pondicherry last year few of my friends started discussing gossip using hints and codes. I absolutely had no idea what they were talking. :). Also I had nothing to say as I hardly give a damn about what other people are doing.[ If they are strangers to me.].

So why did I change all of the sudden? Even after knowing that what I am going to write may hurt someone why I went ahead and wrote the gossip column? I wanted to communicate a message which normally goes above the head for certain people.

What is the message?
When I used to talk to few people they used to tell me lot of stories about other people. The stories ranges from "You know the guy from Kolkata and girl from Delhi are totally into each other" to "Dude do you know P & J have gone together for a fun trip. You know what they gonna do there...he he he". If I try to defend saying you might not know whats going on between them, they might be good friends too, they wouldn't believe. It is like addiction that people believe the perspective of others just because it appears to be true[Theory of connecting dots]. If I see something and write about it or I ask the concern person and say about that to my friend that is different. But assuming things just because 'it seems obvious' is not a right thing. At least the people who are spreading the news should know it might be a wrong news. Lot of people even judge others based on this rumours. I firmly believe saying half truth is worse than a lie.

I am a victim of this gossip. When I was studying 11th standard I used to talk to a girl who was 10 years older than me. One day my parents called me and scolded me for talking to her. My dad asked me "Are you in love with that girl?''. Then he went on to say "You can't go out of the house from now on". I was very angry because of this incident, as I never even imagined such things. I used to wonder how can people relate a guy with a girl 10 years elder than him. My parents who never used to believe what others say before this believed this gossip which was based on nothing.

Here is the answer you all are looking for...I saw this movie "Life of David Gale". I was very impressed with the movie. I thought I would do something of that sort so as to make people understand what they are doing is not right. I did it through the internet to make a point that when you speak about people at their back is equivalent to publishing it. Every day you and I do this when we spread half truth about others. The thing I wish to differentiate here is 'When some one is being rude to you and you going on to say that to others is different from you hearing from someone that other person is rude". So I acted like a 'mean' person writing in the blog about whatever I hear about people, calling them using different names etc. which I would otherwise consider as 'silly'. The responses for all this were funny. Some replied to my blog using status messages, some using facebook chat, some came and spoke to me about it and some went on to delete my comment on their picture in orkut to show their anger. I couldn't reveal this truth as I kept my objective in mind. I am very sorry if I had hurt you all in the process of proving a point.

So what happens to "Pandoras Box" now? [FYI: Pandoras Box according to myth was a beautiful jar given to a beautiful lady and was asked not to open. This lady out of curiosity opened and it unleashed terrible things on mankind. According to myth she took out every object out of the jar that causes terror except 'Hope' .] Help me decide whether to change the name or not by answering the poll below:

Poll : Retain the name "Pandora's Box" or change it to "AOC"

Am I gonna stop the gossip column ? Is there a new thing that is coming up? The answer is "YES". Gossip Column will become "Every Individual is a brand" which will respect every individual.
The new thing is.... Wait till the next blog to know what is this? :)

News, 'Is truth ugly?', and Scout for talent interview section will continue...

Crazy top list + Cerys B-day

Today(20-11-2009) is Cerys's birthday. Wish her.

Gossip Column(Just for fun)***:

There is a guy in LIBA hostel(B-floor) who went alone to bar on a week day(Yesterday) and drank more than 4 beers from Hotel prataps :)[That's what he said. :)]. You might think what is the big deal about it?. Four beers and still standing.....hmmm...not bad. But here is what he did...

I was walking back towards the hostel and suddenly I heard somebody screaming from a long distance. I thought it was some crazy guy shouting on the road[He was really loud]. My friend who was walking next to me turned back and this big fellow ran and came near us[Outside the campus]. The big fellow was a totally different person then.[Usually he appears to be so calm]. It looked like he just realised that he has a big physic. You should have seen his body language. Really funny. He he. This guy who has already got his summer placement through college was acting like a "I am drunk" person scaring a batch mate who was passing by and chasing him. I should say it was funny. he he he. Doing crazy** things among your friends when you are drunk is ok but doing it on the road man...Your act is joining the 'Crazy top list'.

What is "Crazy Top list"?

This is a list of activities in the campus that are really crazy. Till date "Cutting cake for no reason in college" by "Mixed 5 + 1"* [I didn't know that there was a sixth person in that group initially] occupies "number 1" position. This act of screaming and running on the road by "I am drunk" buddy breaks into Top 10. The actual position in the list will be known soon. There will be no fun if everybody in the campus starting to act like 50 year old. :)


*---->To know who is "Mixed 5"[Now Mixed 6] read previous post. :)
**--->Being crazy is not a bad thing. If you harm some one by your crazy act you get disqualified .he he :)

"First meeting"

The first meeting in the steps
The first meeting of the eyes
For a few minutes it went
And was later dismissed
Thinking of it always
And was the greatest meeting
Of the life.

Prize winning poem

"BAD BEE"
She is no more fair;
And so he did not care.
She made him a bee,
That spoke not a word;
Yet stings when it hates.
She couldn't bear the pain;
The pain more intense than the harm.
The bee went its way;
And mad held her sway.
She hears the buzzing;
Spread as a lightening.
Shame came over her;
And death took hold of her.


Interviewer's Note:


If you have any problematic gadget or issues with your computer take it to him and I am sure he will resolve it. He is a very good team man and will finish any task he takes up even if he has to stay overnight.

I watched the movie "2012" today(18-11-09) in Sangam Theatre[Had few interruptions during the movie] in Poonamalle High Road. The movie was pretty good and worth watching.

B'day boy

News:

Yesterday(16-11-09) was Prathik's b'day.

Today LIBA students visited IFMR campus for a program. Even though the program was lengthy, it looked like the guy was talking sense(n). ;) The best part was when the speaker asked to share their experience in the college to the IFMR students they said our professors are superb and they do everything for the students. They also said "In IFMR every student works really hard".

When LIBA students were asked about their experience in college our official photographer and 'CR'(I don't know why CR..is it something like CM post or something he he...Dude expecting a counter blog ha ha...Read CR's blog.) beautifully said that "In LIBA our students do all the activities including arranging conferences, club events etc. and we got excellent professors too. On top of the hard work we also have fun." Everyone started laughing. Good one 'CM' i mean 'CR' :). I don't think any IFMR student would have anticipated this response*. [Idea for the post : CR Venkat :) Thanx dude]

Get to know few new hang-out and eating places :):
Adyar Ananda Bhavan, in sterling road.

Today I went to Anandha Bhavan to have snacks. It is a sweet & snack shop. You can sit inside and eat but mainly people buy and take home. Even though the ambiance inside(For sitting) is not that great they serve fresh and quality sweets. It's a bit high priced but worth the money. Ice creams were available only in the menu. :).

I had dinner in Viv's, a multi-cuisine restaurant in Harrington road(Near creamy-Inn).The place looks simple. Decent rates. Food is pretty good.

Gossip Column(Just for Fun)**:

You all should know about this guy who said the 'Three words' to a girl for four times and still didn't get a positive response. Now they have decided to be good friends.:). All should appreciate this guys guts. I am not sure how many people can express their feeling this firmly. Dude your never give up attitude is impressive. I think you had this feeling 'deep' inside. That's why you did not worry about 'a'll 'k'ind of non-sense people will be talking after your attempt. Your activities with "Dia/2" shows that you care for the society you live in unlike many. Hope you get the best if not this.

There is a story about Hunter but I feel bored to write about it. He has got enough exposure I suppose. Actually what happened was....

TAFE field trip + live-in relationship + Lawson's B'day

Rating: 4
Tafe Head office,chennai

Debo Wishing Lawson

News:

Tomorrow 15.11.09 is Lawson's b'day. Wish him.

Operation students of LIBA recently visited TAFE, Chennai. TAFE manufactures tractors & Farm equipments. First the students were taken to the factory and then to the head office. In the head office they were explained about how SAP functions in their company. It was a very informative field trip. Operation students were explained how the marketing, finance, production and HR modules of SAP works. I think everyone should know about this latest technology as most of the companies are migrating towards enterprise systems like SAP, Oracle and so on.

Gossip Column(Just for fun)*:

The photo that "Hero Turned Comedian" was scared to share publicly. Why should he block the photograph? If you can find out who the guy is and wondering why he is named as "HTC" ask him what he got as b'day gift? He is a good badminton player and a decent Table tennis player. But 'at times' he will try saying wrong points to confuse you and uses sledging effectively. :)

Today one of my friend was saying that there is a boy living with a girl in kodambakam without getting married. I would like to give my viewpoint for and against "live-in relationship".

For Live-In relationship:
1. Both the people might enjoy living adventurously(Hiding from family) and its always good to live with an excitement. At least the initial phase will be rosy.

2. Its legal (Not very sure about state laws) as it's a consensual decision. Read somewhere that baby born to such couple is "Legitimate".

3. Marriage ceremony(Huge spending) is the only item missing if the couple are serious about the relationship.

Against Live-In:

1. Some argue that it spoils culture ? Their question is "Then what is marriage for?".

2. Relationship might fail easily due to the lack of legal, family & society pressure to stay together.

3. Hypocrites will over react as if you are committing a crime, while bad fellows can exploit the situation to have some fun and get away with it.


As suspected 'Next to D cell hostel room' wasn't a move towards liberalization. You know why? Check out the rules:

1. Never close the door. Why :)?
2. No table in the room. Why he he :-) ?
3. No cots in the room. hmmm...here we go :-) ?

Potential Rules?

1. Chair not allowed ?
2. Compulsory formals?
3. People should close their eyes while passing the room? ha ha :)
4. Guys should go out of the hostel if they see girls inside? ha ha ha
5. No plastic sachets allowed inside!!!!!! :)...(Don't imagine too much...its things like pickle,oil etc...)

Next to D cell gets a room in LIBA hostel + True Love?

News:

Congratulations to the two people who got their summer internship yesterday. The guy and the girl seemed to have bagged the highest summer internship pay till date. Hope they use this opportunity to get pre-placement offer there.

During Anjali's B'day...along with Aadithya(L) and Christo (R)..Photo by reporter HJ . Today is Diana George's (1st Yr) b'day. Wish her.

Pizza Hut..Sterling Road....
Yesterday I went to Pizza Hut along with some friends for a birthday treat...Had few starters..some pizzas and desserts..Some items were tasty and others were 'ok'. You can go once in a while... You can book the place for parties. They will reserve seats for you if you inform them in advance. They will also create a party ambiance relevant to the occasion.

"Next to D cell" gets a room(G-14) in LIBA hostel. This looks like a welcome move towards 'liberalization'. This means even after Sandhya and Vaneesa goes back(They are currently staying in the guest room) to their hostel, girls will be visiting hostel. Funny part is shy guys will have to wear shirt every time they come out of their rooms.(Not me) ha ha. But I am sure they will all get used to the new atmosphere.

Gossip Column* :

Much awaited "Pal-lan - Hunter's creation" story:

This Pal-lan is a finance guy. He has very good finance knowledge. He is in LIBA hostel since last year. He never comes out of his room for any reason other than going to college. Some say he has a confident and stylish walk because he moves his shoulders bit too much while walking. [It seems ok for me]. For me he is like every other guy but Hunter calls him Pal-lan. Pal-lan is a tamil word. I believe giving names based on appearance is not a right thing. People who have problems(Belly, baldness ,man boob's, zero stamina, less immunity etc.) are the one's who make fun of others on appearance. ;-) To be continued....

Is Truth ugly?

An Incident I wish to share - True love? - (Real)

Today is my 'dearest' friend's second year death anniversary. He died in a bike accident. Every time I think about this I get disturbed. He was a gem of a person who was God fearing, honest & meant no harm to anyone. Some would say its God's will. I don't know. May be. But this incident made two of his family members non-believers. They couldn't accept the concept of God after this incident. This not only shattered his family members but also his girl friend. I still remember the way she cried on his grave. She told me "I don't wanna live!". Her mom told me that some how she managed to stop her from ending her life. She almost cried for 2 months after his death. I went and met their family few months before. She seemed fine then but the scar remains.

We three studied in same class in U.G. I know for the fact that these two people had nothing in common but they loved each other. Cast, Religion, status couldn't stop them from loving each other. It wasn't a love that emerged out of a guy and a girl coming together after all their items in their check list** matched. They loved each other when they were nobody.

Even though the whole incident left so many questions in my mind, it reinforced the fact that "True Love" exist and you got to be gifted to be loved by someone.


What is a Check List?

A dialogue from the movie " Ugly Truth" - A movie with a good message but has too many F and C words. :)
Men/Women says they want "True Love", they want "Romance" but all they want is a **checklist.
Is he/she perfect?
Is he/she handsome?
Is he/she doctor?
For men/women who satisfy all this condition don't be so happy. These people are not loving you but they are loving carefully calculated checklist of their choices. Money over substance, looks over soul, polish over principles, no gesture how real or romantic will ever compensate for a really impressive list of credentials. ;)

That is the ugly truth folks. :)

Insight 09' BIG event + Hitler Vs Nelson Mandela + Nivy & Sayuj's B'day

Rating : 3

Insight '09, a BIG conference which had many leading industry people as speakers.



Conference Secretary 'Khusbhoo'. She and the guy below(Subbu) are the people who spearheaded the wonderful Insight team. I should say the team headed by these people worked tirelessly to organise this conference. I wanted to give a "Behind the screen" coverage of Insight but due to some reasons plan got scrapped. All the sleepless nights, perseverance and endless calling was worth it. Great job "Insight Team".
The guy fondly called as 'Subbu' who won the second best management student award in an all India B-school event(which include IIM students) in Mumbai representing LIBA. LIBA , also bagged three awards for best finance course among all the B-school in India, best B- school in nurturing young entrepreneurs* and third best placement brochure.

Hotel "Green Park". Venue of "Insight '09".

Gossip Column:

Ex-Satyam employee in the Insight conference drinking tea. Guess who this guy is. He and his friend likes taking their own photographs endlessly. Once I remember opening a folder which was in my laptop named 'Insight 08' and it was almost filled with these two guys pics(>30). :)
Jijo(HTC) being punished by sam for trying to snatch her phone. What was the photograph which was there in sam's phone that Jijo desperately wanted to delete? Is that a first year girl's pic????? Did sam transfer the pic to my phone? Answers soon :P

In my Perspective:

If you read history you will know that both Hitler and Nelson Mandela were aggressive in their leadership. Both of them had huge followers,loyalist in their respective countries. Both had a vision. But one bullied certain people using dictatorship & military power while other fought for the weak. If you ask me if I would have worked under Hitler(Hypothetically) just because he was talented and brought fame, the answer is "No". That does not imply I am scared. I will still be able to work under aggressive leaders like Nelson Mandela who had a greater cause in mind than just sheer arrogance.
