Batti Band?!?!?! ... for wot?!?

Recently.. a new campaign was launched on 15th dec 2007.... batti band.. vch insisted ppl.. to switch off their electricity frm 6pm-7pm .... logic being.. to reduce emissions ..



but... the logic is completely flawed... suppose if every1 switches off the lights and stuff... there wud b.. enormous amount of electricity loss... how.. as the concept of power plant engg. ... the base load plants wud anywayz b running... and i demand goes below base load.. the difference amount is wasted...

the solution for energy problem is to... use it wisely... v shld rather educate ppl to how effectively can 1 use electricity judiciously.... simple things like.. switching off TV's main power supply when TV is not ON ... can same significant amount of energy if practiced by 1 and all...

so.. organisations shld rather concentrate on.. education.. rather then.. BATTI BAND!!

Go .. DADA... Go!!!!!

The Bengal Tiger is back!!!

I am the "I" in INDIA

"The day I was born in this country, this country was also born in me.

I can feel it running through my guts when I'm angry and throbbing though my veins when I'm glad. I am India and India is me.

Starting today, I have decided that i will not point fingers at anyone any more. Instead, those fingers will be pointed at me.

I am the system that does not work. I am the pothole on the road that doesn't get filled. I am teh FIR that doesn't get filed. I am the bridge that doesn't get built.

Everything that's wrong with this country starts with me. And will soon end with me. I am India and India is me."

These are a few inspiring words I recently came across.

Under the Shower!!!

hmm.. so.. yesterday (05/11/2007) ... morning... a chilly morning.. went for a bath.. and straight into a relaxing hot shower... it was an amazing feeling... so... just sat.. and went for a swim into a waves of thoughts...

for past fortnight or so.. i hav been goin through huge mood swings... bcoz of placement debacles... and.. was really getting to me.. loads of frnds tired to make me feel good.. but.. swings continued..

so.. cuming back to the hot shower.... strted into a flashback mode... wot in my life have i not accomplished till now.. going back to the most crutial point of any1's carrer.. very early stages where careers r set... SSC... i aimed at abt 75%.. not more.. i cud hav easily got it.. but.. lazy me.. thought.. 75% wud b enuff to get where i wanted to go... go got 74.40.. so i got wot i amined...

goin further.. wot next after ssc... diploma wot i narrowed down to... and the course.. MEch ( still cant understnd .. y ppl.. do IT engg) ... so the best course in mech diploma was in Fr. Agnel... aimed for it.. got it.. last seat in mech engg of tht year... again.. got wot i targeted...

again.. in next 4 yrs.. figured out.. there is no pt in studying much.. as even toppers too dont get addmission in bby.. hav to take a back door entry... but.. i had amined to top in 5th sem of diploma... i did tht.. vth 80% ... again got it.. goin futher.. got the admision thro backdoor entry.. for degree... most sensible decision i hav taken in my life.. by selectin.. PIIT as my college... a relaxing 3 yrs passed..

last yr... aimed.. to get a distinction... got it.. easily.. not much of a struggle... same old formula.. read a week b4 exams.. and the calculas in subjs wil get me to distinction...

in last yr.. wanted to do MBA.. gave CAT, NMAT, CET .... but.. alwayz aimed at gettin in SIMSR .. tht too via guju quota... even thought got good %tile in other exams.. but got wot i wanted.. but.. after a struggle... yeh.. also.. abt CAT... had a huge verbal fight vth a close relative.. whose son was also giving CAT vth me.. and.. he strted.. very bad tasted attack on me.. tht.. how unprepared i was... this was a night b4 CAT... i couldnt take it.. i thought.. i hav to crack CAT... didnt think.. of gettin into IIM's... got wot i aimed.. cracked CAT.(ofcourse surpassing his son by a huge margin) ....

so... uptill know.. i hav really got wot i hav aimed at.. easily.. or after a lot of struggle... so this placement thingz is just 1 such thingz... i fact after just getting into SIMSR... i hav realized tht its better u get it after a thoda struggle.. u tend to value thingz more...

SO.. finally.. block is cleared... dont need to fear abt anything, any1, any kinda competition...

only thing i need to overcome my fears....

again.. my favourite line...

IF IT IS TO BE, IT IS UP TO ME
