Just Imagine! (Day one)

statuary warning :- if u r good @ imagination then only read this blog. otherwise u wont be able to 'feel' it.

consider very normal, imperfect day of ur life. u r walking down the road to railway station to catch train for ur office or college. on the way u meet a stranger. he says 'hi'. now u r not in a state to reply or even recognise tht person. coz u r being late to the train. u just carelessly say 'hi' and try to ignore him. but its not over yet. tht person now starts to walk alongwith u. he starts the conversation. u still dont remember the person. the station is still 5 min away. tht means tht person is gonna be with u for 5 more min. u start to walk fast while sating to the man ,'i hav to hurry, otherwise i ll miss train.'

he says,'no problem. i also hav to catch the train.' u r still searching in the compartments of ur brain for any faces tht looked like this person. so u r not really listening. just responding. after few seconds u start to doubt tht u hav seen tht person somewhere. but u dont remember the name. but u feel awkward to ask his name after almost 1 min of talking. u think tht if u ask his name, he will feel offended. u think let it be. anyways station is just few minutes away. tht person is saying tht he also wants to catch a train but his limbs are not as fast as urs. now u start to grow angry of tht person. u think something to break the conversation.

u ask him,'hey bro, by which train u travel?' without even bothering to answer this, he asks u which train u r gonna catch? now u think tht the person is just getting out of hand. but next moment u think tht anyway the station is getting near so i ll bear with him for just 1-2 mins more.

just as u r about to enter the station the person says,"hey where r u goin? arent we supposed to catch train on platform 1?"
u say,"no re. my train comes on platform 10."
hearing this; that person gets very angry and says,"then u must not be knowing me. then why the hell were u talking with me all the time?"

stunned; u start thinking backwards in time. yeah why the hell was i talking to him? hey w8 a min. i was not talking to him. HE was doing tht job of talking. u want to tell him tht he was such a nuisance and got the hell out of you but just when u r about to open ur mouth u hear the announcement of ur train. now what wil be ur choice? leave the train to hav a li'l payback? or just forget it and rush for ur train?

10 things i wont forget about my college



even if i left my 'engineering' college after four long @#$% years; i will still remember some things about my college. coz whatever is the college like i hav spent four years of my life there.

these are the ten things of my college. they are not according to hierarchy.

1) stairs @ law entrance:
this was the place where i and my friends used to sit to get some fresh air out of my classroom; usually after the lunch. coz if we wud hav directly went to classroom we wud hav readily fallen asleep.

2) canteen:
like many students from various colleges like their own respective canteen irrespective of how that canteen is; i also like my canteen very much. especially for the food quantity. some of my most fav dishes are misal, special lunch, and fried rice.

3) HMCT canteen:
this was the place where we used to run to drink water or eat some light after playing cricket. but most of the times we ended up eating pastries or cakes or doughnuts.

4) office:
i hav seen so many samples in my college office that it is simply impossible to forget it.

5) library:
there are two reasons for me not to forget library. one is because of librarians. and other is my friend ashish. i started to study in library in PL bcoz of him. and it was total fun. i must say my marks started increasing from the sem i started to go to library for studying.

6) HMCT ground:
i mentioned above tht we used to play cricket. all thanx to this ground. we not only played cricket on this ground, but also enjoyed Horizons on this ground.

7) Rangoli hotel:
although the hotel is not part of my college; but we went there to take treats from 'topper' amitesh. i dont remember how many treats we took from him. maybe 2 or 3. but after horizons we went there to take treat. and as usual no of people in hotel with us, was more than no of people who were together @ horizons. fokat ka khana kaun nahi chahega?

8) temple in college:
this temple was inaugurated when we were in first year. so that temple is four years old in that college just like we are. we had day off on tht day. but as i hadnt formed any group then, i remained in college till regular time was over.

9) medical college:
in last two sem there was some construction work goin on in my college. so we hav to go through medical college. now if u know whats there in medical college then u ll know why i m saying tht i cant forget medical college.

10) bus stop outside my college:
this one is last but not at all least. i hav heard many times tht u cant forget things which happen to u for first time. like first love, first job, first house etc. this was the place where i was first ragged. i still laugh when i remember tht. coz my ragging was unusual. normally freshers pleade to seniors to leave them. but in my case the senior ragging me got so irritated that he finally left away. whenever i ll visit my college i ll still laugh at this point of location.

note:ashish and amitesh; sorry for mentioning ur names above.

i havnt mentioned friends in above list. its bcoz they are not things. they r my life. how can i forget them?

Life

now dont go literally on the title. this blog doesnt give any advise on how to live or rather how NOT to live. it wil just illustrate some imp points regarding life.

what is d basic requirement to live on? i wud say love. it is @ d base of evrything. we need something to live for. some may say we need food to live. its the basic requirement of body. not life. we require food to nourish our body. and we take the food as we love our body, unknowingly.

i hav heard someone say, 'we, the mankind, are social beings'. we need to live in a society. the reason is simple - we are afraid of being alone. afraid tht we wont get anyone to live for. anyone to love. when we r in society, we find many people, we meet many people. we find someone towards whom we get attracted. and then we get a motive to live for. its not only hard but also near to impossible to live without any ambition in life. the one who says he has no ambition has either havnt recognised his ambition or is lying or has reached divine status.

i hav a friend who once said to me tht it is impossible for him to live without friends. what are friends for? they make u feel better. they make u feel that u r important to someone. this feeling acts as a boost or catalyst in ur life. it makes u sense other peoples' feelings about u. it makes u think tht someone some where is always caring about u, waiting for u. this makes u feel better. i do not deny the importance of friends in life. but more important thing is being friendly. being frind is more important than having friend.

but i must say that if u hav read all this, then u know importance of love in life. this love can be of any form. like love of parent to child, friendship, siblings, husband to wife & vice versa etc. u need love to live in this world. so spread as much much love as u can to make this world a better place to live. what a nice sweet message to end the blog! i may become a good advisor!
