Funny ways of human mind...

Saturday, July 4, 2009

I was always fascinated by the way people think..the way the world works..Human brain never ceased to surprise me..And people's act..my my my..must say..Selfishness, Prioritizing materials over fleshed and living people....wow we are all devils in our own accord....we do little satanic acts each day and try and justify it in some sense or the other..In this day and world no one can be a saint..But we can atleast try and strike a balance..The little lies people say,..the backstabbing, balk-talking they do..they don't realize the extent of damage they inflict upon others..They talk as if they are perfect..they don't have any faults at all..They seldom realize that they dont become perfect just because the other person tends to overlook their glitches..For the past couple of days I have been seeing lot of crazy stuff people do..Be it ditching a person for a trip who thought they were his only friends, turning in people whom you called friends to the cops for some cheap complaint on harrasment..and ya something that I had to face personally - becoming an option to someone whom you trusted and valued the most..to someone whom you thought treated you the same way..Well it made me understand where I stand in that person's life..I am not judging anyone..But a person can be valued only based on the way he/she reacts to a given situation..I hate to write such blogs..I am a happy person loving to write fun stuff..This something I really never wanted to write..But life is not a bed of roses...Its been offlate pulling me through a roller-coaster..and my blog has only become a reflection of it....

Open Up

Sunday, February 15, 2009

Was listening to this song after a long time...Wow...simply superb..

You can be rich 
With no money to spend, 
You can do everything 
When you understand…

You can be mother 
When you are a man, 
Open up… 
You know that you can…

Open your eyes 
Open your mind 
Open your thoughts 
Don't stay behind…

Open up, open up… 
Open up, open up… 
Nescafe.

The key is inside you 
To open your mind, 
You know what is out there 
Your heart can't be blind…

Open your eyes 
And open your mind 
Open your thoughts 
Don't stay behind…

Open your eyes 
Open your mind 
Open your thoughts 
Don't stay behind…

Erase all the borders 

And start in your head. 

Open your mind 
To thoughts seldom said…

Feminist Feelings

8.30 AM on a sunday morning...I get up with this rage..Somehow I was unable to bring myself to accept the barbaric acts of the so called "moral police" in India..What do these people call morality and why is always women targeted?? Do these "fanatics" of Hinduism really know the true principles and beliefs of the religion?? If women socializing and couples going out during valentine's day are considered against the Hindu religion, where does thrashing women in public, forcefully getting couples married just because they were seen together in public fit in??? Its always the women at fault or the youth..What do these monkeys have to say about innumerable shameless middle and old aged men who rub women at all awekward places while travelling in the bus?? What about those bastards who consider raping and sexually and emotionally assaulting women as a part-time job?? Those hooligans in the form of husbands beating up their wife after fully drunk?? Are all these very much Hindu??I also dont understand why morals and principles are always thought in a sexual perspective. Cheating people, corruptions, greed..there is a whole list of other issues violating the code of conduct that the monkeys of the sena want to comfortably overlook..Afterall they are doing it all themselves!!

I guess this male chauvenistic attitude is imbibed and sunk into the society..Even well educated men with supposedly broad outlook of life ultimately want a wife who cooks cleans and takes care of him..I have once heard from someone very close to me say "Why dont u consider being a house wife?? Its a demanding task"..Agreed..Being a home maker IS a demanding task..I ve seen my mom..I ve seen his mom..They are one of the best managers..But then what I have noticed that they arent financially independant..their work is never shared...They dont get holidays..I just have one question "How do u expect me to trust any man?" whats the asssurance that he might not just leave u in the middle and go behind something better??I would have no money no life...Just an experience of cleaning cooking and washing..Ok..Lets look at it from the other side..The woman who works and manages a home..How many men are really ready to take exactly 50% of the household work..If I cook one day, he needs to cook the other day..If I sweep and mop the house one day, he got to do it the next day..Well I bet 99% of the men would never agree to this..They expect superwomen..Someone who can manage and balance everything..And they will keep exploiting them in all possible ways.I can hear many men saying "I will I will" Come on guys.you know thats never gonna happen!!!!Its not only with Indian men, its with men all over the world..Well people I dont want to blame all men..Its the way the society has evolved to be..No matter how much we talk about freedom for women, ready to face the fact...we are one category of unprotected group that will be exploited forever...

Phew....I am usually never so feminist..But I guess the monkeys of Ram Sena has really made be furious...Its the second time I am personally facing it after the imposition of dress code in Anna University..Again targeted only against girls..Though there were codes for guys as well, it wasnt as rigorously talked about as it was imposed on girls..Gosh who the hell are you to talk about what a girl should wear??And if you expect girls to be spoiling the tradition why dont guys also wear dothi???

Techno - Dumbo

Monday, February 2, 2009

Technology and gadgets have become indispensible parts of our lives...It wasnt so bad even during my school days..I hardly used to have anything electronic with me..Today when I walk I carry a minimum of 2 items that runs on battery...Cant imagine stepping out of the house without the mobile phone or the mp3 player...What used to be extravagant has turned out to be a necessity..But these everyday gizmos have caused lots of funny things to happen..I just made one super blunder today with one of these and thought I should blog it..Wow..this is not the first time I ve made such bloopers...Hmmmm let me think..

Blooper 1. 11.30 in the night..just finished chatting with some of the best people in my life...lazily looking into some technical papers over the laptop screen with earphones from my mp3 player plugged into my ears..holy crap I ve been with this pdf for over an hour..it absolutely made no sense..Come on Harini u can do it u can do it...Meanwhile I heard a faint music "Mundhinam paarthene" wow superb song..but why is the volume so low..let me increase it..I started pressing the volume button in the laptop..No effect..Damn Dell..I opened the volume control and checked it was in full..still the music was barely heard..Damn Damn Damn..whats wrong with this stupid system..Argggggggggggghhhhhhh its not the computer system its my nervous systems at stake!!! I was plugged to the mp3 and not to the LAPTOP..Oink Oink Oink.......Blurp Blurp....

Blooper 2. I ve got so used to looking at the digital screen that things like paper, pen etc are becoming obsolete..But one fine day I was forced to use a paper and pencil to make a list of some variables I needed to consider in a project design...I made a table sort of thingy with my pathetic writing and even more poorer drawing skills..On review I realised that I dint need one of the rows..So I erased them with an eraser..And then I was waiting for the other rows in the paper to shift upwards the way it gets done in a database or excel sheet..HEIGHTS PEOPLE...

Blooper 3. On a tired wednesday evening, I had to rush to the copy room of my Teaching assistant office to make some copies of some lab exercise..It was a humble HP copier machine..I fed the papers in, put my original in the scanner and started hitting furiously on the small display there..Nothing happened..I started poking at it with more frustration...Come on AM getting LATE!! It took me a while to realize that it wasnt a touch screen but an ordinary display and the buttons were right beside....Dum dumdudmdumd DUMB...Went out cursing "When will technology grow!!!" :P :P :P

Blooper 4 : Never underestimate the pennywise foolishness of a PhD student..Am one of those techno-lovers and usually keep myself abreast with it..Never wanted to be left behind in the race..And computers and laptops are indispensible part of my life..Both my career and personal life are totally dependent on it..I spend time on it more than I spend with myself..So handeling it is an involuntary action like eating sleeping etc..Recently my laptop crashed and refused to even start up..Had to format everything..Lost many important things..Was unable to recover them...I was still under that shock..I went to the office to switch on my office comp..OMG it wasnt switching on either..Nothing was working..God..I started to panic..this had most of my work..I started screaming like a mad mad woman..Like those female side kicks in tamil movies who cry when a super hero of the village dies or some unforseen incident has happened..My labmate got worried and rushed in to see if I was having a fits or something..It took me a whole five minutes after all the screaming to come to the senses that the computers plug was out of the socket..Gagagagagagagagagaggaga.....Blurp.....

Weblog weblog blog blo bl bl BURP BURP

After lot of contemplation, confusion and careful consideration I finally decided to write a blog..Now why am I doing it??Am I great at writing - Naaah I suck..Except for technical paper, project reports and emails I can hardly pen anything.Do I have lots of things to write on - A straight NO..If I had so much things to write why am I aimlessly writing this blog with no useful content???..Am I trying to to impresss someone with my "intellectual" ability - Naaah I give a damn..Am I jobless - Well partly yes..Am almost always yes..But I do lot of other things - sleeping, photography, painting, singing, reading books..This one is definitely not my cup of tea..

Thinking of it..It is all because of a rat and a goat...A krazzy krazzy goat told me I have good writing skills..Quite flattering...Well everyone needs that spark of encouragement and motivation..So Thought what the heck let me give it a shot...Next wanted to comment on a rat throwing tantrumz about something called LOVE..Was unable to do it without creating a blog page..So with these factors contributing and compelling to this point, Here I AM trying to blog,...Still wondering what to blog on..Damn it...
