Addicted to 'G' Spot..!!!

Well, well well... stop running your thoughts wild..!! ;) ok, before I tell you what G-spot here it refers to, let me ask you few questions.
• Which Prime minister of India holds the record of serving for longest period in office?
• Which is the largest coffee growing country in the world?
I’m sure you all did a search on G-spot..!! hahaha.. I mean Googled it... ;)
Yeah, this is the ‘G’ I was speaking about. We are soo addicted to this Google that on an average I guess I use google for more than 25 times a day!
Few years ago when somebody asks me any General knowledge question I would answer instantly. But, now I don’t.!! I just Google it... for every single thing I google it...
Most of the time even when I know the web site address, even then i google it...
Addiction of google is among all of us... so do u like your addiction to this ‘G’ spot..??!!?? ;)

Well.. That I leave it to you...!!

Move on...

This is a poem written by me longtime ago. For my surprise I've received many applauds for this poem and its rated 4 stars on 5 in one of the sites on internet.  I hope you all will like it.

Move on...

"Once I found you on internet,
you were hard to forget.


Slowly we became close,
we started speaking when you were in your nightclothes.


Slowly I thought I was in love,
It was like a peaceful dove.


Though you were older,
I thought we would reach altar.


I thought I should first achieve,
Which made me put to grieve.


It was hard to loose you,
But life made me say Adieu!.


May you get someone best,
who will never make you depressed.


I hope you'll always keep in touch,
even though you go to dutch!.


Wish you remain happy always,
Because you are worth appraise..!!"



I Found My Phungshuk Wangdu..!!! :)

It was year 2004 during summers in Bangalore I completed my under graduation course and as usual everybody promised to be
in touch with each other after college. But as the fact goes for first initial days or probably for few months you are in contact with most of them especially your close friends.
Some of them I am still in contact even though we call or ping each other once a while.
There was this guy called Teisovi Gerard Meyase (I know the name sounds similar to Phungshuk Wangdu from 3 idiots...!! ;) )
Whom we used to call 'Gerry'. He was an intelligent chap, scoring very good marks in physics and mathematics especially, I remember him scoring highest marks in our finals physics paper. he was very active member of choir, in fact he used to train people in choir. The choir which he trained had won prices as well.
After college everybody choose their own directions, some wanted to work, some wanted to study further and few others wanted to get married and settle in life. like wise I wanted to study further and took up an MBA course.
But nobody had any idea what Gerry was up to because the day we finished our college there was no contact from Gerry. he went back to his home town Kohima in Nagaland.
I tried calling his land line number after few months and got to learn from his father, he is now in Shillong, I left a message saying to call me back when he is back from there.
I waited for few more months and once again called his land-line number but, unfortunately their land-line phone was no more in use.
Days passed by , months passed by and I completed my two year MBA course and started working.
It was 2006 and during that year, everyone had craze of opening an orkut account which even I have one. Through orkut I got in touch with many of my classmates but not Gerry.
After 4 years now in 2010 yesterday i.e., 6th Feb. 2010 I again tried searching Gerry on the internet. For my surprise I found 5 links on the Google. Out of which 3 were pdf document. I found that this chap is a faculty member at Kohima Science College!
when I saw that, I was super excited and started looking for phone number of Kohima Science College.
But for my surprise there was no phone numbers available for Kohima Science College on the internet.
I started making different searchs on Google about Kohima Science College. After many searches at last I found a phone number of Dr. Hovithal N.Sothu of Kohima Science College who is deputed else where. I called him at his residence number which was provided on the internet.
Dr.Hovithal was having his dinner and I told him that I'm looking for Teisovi's number and if he could help me to get in touch with him. I should say Dr.Hovithal is a very kind man, he told me to call him back after 30 minutes and he would give me Gerry's number.
I called him back after half an hour and Dr. Hovithal gave me Gerry's land-line number and his mobile number as well..!!
At this moment I was super delighted to hear from Dr.Hovithal. I thanked him lots and called on Gerrys mobile number.
There was a voice which heard from other side but unfortunately it was not Gerry..!!! :(
I was totally disappointed and asked for Teisovi, and then he said he is his father and that moment he is out and Teisovi is at home, he asked me to call him back after 10 minutes.
After 10 minutes finally I got to hear the voice of my Good old friend..!! Initially he did not recognize my voice.. hahaha..
But later he did... I should say my mission to search Gerry was finally accomplished..!!
we spoke over the phone for very long time. Later when we hungup the phone I received an SMS from Gerry saying “I can’t thank you enough for finding me. God bless, Good night”
Sometimes few people create a niche in your heart. And Gerry was that person..!! or rather i should say Teisovi Gerard Meyase was that person..!! ;)

PS: I thank Dr.Hovithal for giving me Gerry's phone number and being soo kind in helping me.. :)

Made Me Realise Who Am I....

I remember the day I was brought to this world. There was smile on everybody's face. They cuddled me, took my care, and gave me food.
I was given a name, I was very little then. As the days passed by I started growing like everyone does!! :P

I started getting along with people of different age groups. My ancestors gave me strong roots. I grew straight and true.

When I reflect back on those days when I used to play with kids. It makes me feel happy.

Now, I have grown taller and stronger. Many depend on me in their life when they are filled with dark clouds on their head.

I love serving my responsibilities. I love them all.

Today I am feeling sad. I lived so long all these years but today I'm being cut into pieces because they want to make broader roads and develop the city. They made me realise I'm a TREE..!! :(

But I'm happy serving my responsibilities even to those people who brought an end to ME..!!

Goodbye...
 
Your loving
Tree.

Express It...!!

We often feel, when ever we see any good looking girl or any charming personality, we want to approach and talk to them. Most of time this happens with the opposite sex. just to have a general talk or to get to know them. I'm sure everyone will feel it. But, When this happens to me, instead of approaching them I don’t talk to them.

I often feel like telling them they are very charming, good looking or they speak really well.

Something like this happened to me very recently. There was this girl at work place, who was tall, slim and good looking. I always wanted to approach her and tell her that she is beautiful. But I could never gather my courage and approach her. One day I made up my mind to speak to her but I was too late because, I gotto know that she quit the company and she is no longer working with us.

Hmmm, some people make an impression in your mind and in your heart even though u never speak to them. Anyways.. life moves on... but learn't a lesson that never keep it to yourself if you have to compliment anyone.

We often do not express our feelings for fear of losing a relationship, but fact is, we often lose a beautiful relationship by not expressing our feeling...

I hope I will meet her sometime and I don't miss a chance to compliment her..!!!

26and11

It's 7.30 am. I'm just out of my bed and heading towards my hall. I'm still feeling sleepy and wondering if I should go back to bed and getup after two hours or should I read the news paper. I choose to do the latter one. The front page of news paper read "It has cost Rs 31 Crore to keep Kasab alive and safe". Kasab, the only terrorist who was captured by mumbai police during the 26/11 after the nightmare created by these bastards. I don’t understand why the hell Indian government want to spend 31 crores to keep him alive and why the hell he has to be kept safe?31 crore is not an small amount to waste on terrorist like kasab who has ruined many 'innocent' peoples lives. he is responsible for killing so many bread earners of the family, he is responsible for killing a son, a daughter, a father, a mother and many loved ones. It is really frustrating to see that Indian government is not taken any rigorous action on kasab or on terrorism, instead they had given him royal treatment in the jail by giving him 'biryani'. I remember the dialogue which was said by Naseeruddin Shah in the movie "A Wednesday".What are we doing as common people? We are just getting 'used to' such non-sense and terrorism acts and moving on with our lives instead of taking action against it. We are feeling relieved that somebody in our neighbor was a victim in the terror attack and not us.We just make anniversary of such attacks and speak about it. We are very good at speaking or writing like what I've done now. we are "All talk and no action". Do we ever realize the worth of the lives which were taken away by terrorists like Ajmal Kasab at CST station, Leopold Cafe, Taj and Trident Oberoi or at Nariman house? We are just good at paying tribute to the victims by lighting a candle or spending Rs.31 crore on bastards like kasab.
We are Cowards!! Many people advised me not to blog such sensitive issues on blogs..!!! huh.. This is we...!!

Not unless you lose your loved one....would you actually feel the pain.


P.S. I simply loved Mr.Amitabh Bachan’s words below.
A year ago we sat helpless and angry at what unfolded before our eyes. A year after, we show solidarity in our feelings, remember those that sacrificed their entire existence so we could be well enough to remember them, make patriotic and emotional statements and get back to doing our job, promoting our films, writing our blogs. All those vulnerable spots that had been attacked are now bastions of heightened security, amphibious armed vehicles, commando units in force one attire, march pasts, hours and hours of dedicated broadcasting, editorials and pictured quotes from celebrities, an abundance of candles and prayer, placards of denouncement and strong will, politician bashing and more ….

Who is that Girl…???

It was quite a chill in the morning even though there was no mist or rain. It was about 8'o clock and the priest had already taken the altar and I was walking along with my mom climbing up the stairs of the church, as we were already late for the mass. I stood at the door and was wondering, should I go inside the church ? or stand at the door but mom gave a slight push from behind and indicated with her finger that we should go inside and stand because everybody had already taken the bench and there was no place left to sit. I allowed mom to go first and I went slowly behind my mom and stood next to her. After about two minutes, somebody rushed into the church and was slightly panting and stood next to me. The fragrance of the perfume made me think that she should be a girl. And for my surprise, it was this beautiful girl whom I was bowled over in the first sight when I had seen her in the church around a month and a half ago. Looking at her I started feeling even more chiller though the weather outside was not as chill as what I was feeling then.
At first glance, any guy would instantly fall in love with this girl {I felt the same..!! ;-) }. From the corner of my eyes I looked at her feet, because I was in church and could not look at her face directly even though she was just beside me. Well, let me come back to her feet!! she had beautiful toes with nicely shaped nails and somewhat reddish colour nail polish on them. she was holding a handbag in front of her, that made me see her fingers and they were really beautiful.

In between I was also trying to listen to the sermon in the church.

She had beautiful long fair fingers, without touching them, I could tell that they were really soft and gentle. When I was trying to look at her finger I happend to see her face, she immediately looked at me, and immediately I moved my eyes in less than two seconds but there was some kind of strike in my heart!! I wanted to look at her more and longer but, mom was next to me and more over I was in the church. She had very bright face with best features I had seen off late.
Even though the glance was for less than two seconds, her eyes looked bright and beautiful, her lips looked pink and I actually felt I wanted to kiss them. The feeling of kissing actually continued when I saw her cheeks, they were also pink and looked really soft. I felt like pinching her cheeks and do a 'kutli votli voch' lol.. (yeah… I guess you guys remember the Ad)
I rarely get bowled over by somebody's looks. Last I remember was when I had watched Katrina Kaif in 'Yuvvraj', well Katrina is beyond my reach and this girl may be not..!!
During communion, I was standing just behind her and admiring her moves and looking at her beautiful ears with pearl studs pierced. Her hair looked very silky and she had coloured it lightly with burgundy and the lights in the church reflected on them and made it shine even more. She received her communion and started walking towards the door , Even I received my communion and did not wanna miss her and started walking behind her fast and stood a little far beside her.
I wanted to talk to her and tell her 'she is the most beautiful girl I have seen'.
But when the mass was over she walked towards the gate. I still could not resist myself and wanted to talk to her and walked behind her till the gate but I did not have courage to speak to her and know her name. As I was looking her walk, there were few thoughts which were running in my mind. Will I be able to see her again in the church? Even if I see her, Will she stand beside me again? Will I ever tell her that ‘she is simply beautiful’? Will she ever know that I admire her? Or Will I ever know her name..?? Hmmm, well I hope my tale has a happy ending. If not, then to make one.. ;-).

I Donno What is IIT..??!!??

This was way back during my undergraduate days where if anyone of you have asked me 'do you know what IIT is?' or 'did you try to get into IIT?' I used to wonder what is IIT? and why the hell everybody wants to be there? Let me tell you my thoughts about IIT before I actually got to know what it was.

> Initially I thought It was some diploma course like 'ITI' courses!

> This IIT course is meant for CBSE and NCERT syllabus people and not for people like me who have state syllabus background and passed pre-university exams.

> Its just like any other colleges

many a times I didn’t even know what was its importance. One day it so happened one of my classmates during undergraduate told me, at any cost before i complete my 1st year in college here I wanna get into IIT. so i told him.. what is the big deal in getting there? is it so special?

that guy told me "Praveen, I guess you donno what is the importance to get a seat at IIT..! IIT's are

India's premiere institutes. anybody would want to get their engineering seat at IIT and get an B.Tech from there.

Now, I wonder sometimes, what kind of jackass I was..!! That I donno what IIT was..!!

If I had known what it was during my high school I would have slogged my ass to get in there. Hmm.. but its okie.. I was not destined to be an engineer..!! ;-)

I am Clueless..!!

Sometimes things dont seem to go the way you would expect it to happen. I wonder why this happens and sometimes I even wonder does this happen only to me..? may be its uncertainty and ambiguity which clouds.. I donno what it clouds because I am clueless.
sometimes you feel your life is the best and you start feeling happy about it but sometimes things dont go your way and this leaves you frustrated,clueless and uncertain.
There are many instances when things fall in place but all of sudden its out of place and go out of hand, and it goes out of hand before you start to realise..!!
I have heard people saying that life is roller coaster ride and indeed it is.right now i am clueless if I am included in one of the projects. as far as the onshore people are concerned i am into the project but here offshore guys are not getting me involved and I feel they wanna take somebody in my place...!! thats why I am clueless..!!

Things that irritate me the most..!!!


* Somebody not obeying traffic rules or not knowing traffic rules and driving vehicles on busy roads. I will tell you few examples which I had encountered or rather encounter everyday.

A person riding a two wheeler, when he has to take a left turn and when he has to indicate it with hand signal I don’t understand why the hell they stretch out their LEFT HAND instead of showing the signal with right had by pointing the index finger to the ground and by rotating it anti clockwise..!!

For those kind of people I have one question. Imagine when you are driving a four wheeler and in India its right hand driving and how the hell is he gonna show the left turn hand signal? Are they gonna leave their steering and shift to left seat and stretch their left hand..??!!?? well, I donno how would they manage. Well few of you may say that they will use their indicator but tell me what the hell will you do if your indicators are not working??


HONKING..!!! : this bloody honking unnecessarily I come across everyday especially when I have stopped my vehicle at the signal. Everytime when the signal switches from red to green the vehicles behind me start honking continuously as if I donno that I should start my engine and start moving or I donno whats in their minds? I guess those guys are used to such nuisance!! I don’t understand how these assholes(that’s what I call them) got their driving license? The problem is this is all because of corrupt RTO officers.


Overtaking from left side. Well this is the most common offence which irritates me to the core.. yeah to the core..!! you know what I wish, somebody gimme authority to cancel driving licence of people who don’t follow traffic rules, I guess I would cancel 99.99% driving licence in city.

Well, this offence reminds me of an incident which happened with me few days ago. I was driving and there was an alto in front of me and there is an Hyundai accent behind me. The alto ahead of me slow down and almost stopped because there were few pedestrians who were crossing the road, since I was behind him had to do the same and I showed STOP in HAND signal for the vehicles coming behind me so that they know I’m slowing down n stopping my vehicle. But the Hyundai accent driver behind me thought or rather thinks that the hand signal STOP is actually right turn signal…!!! And he comes and stops next to my car and started asking me “why are you showing right hand signal and stopping you car??!!??” . At this moment I was irritated and agitated by his question and I asked him could you please stop your car,I wanna talk to you but that guy thought I wanna pickup a fight with him but in actual I wanted to ask him please show me how do you show right turn signal and stop signal..!!!

Well this was about traffic violation and my irritation!!!


* The next thing which irritates me at corporate!!


You work hard, you slog your ass and the credit for that work goes to somebody else and most of the time your immediate reporting person!!

I have worked in different companies and believe me I have seen this happening in all the companies I worked and for my knowledge I guess this happens in every corporate..!!

It gets more annoying when your immediate reporting person or your manager knows nothing or has very poor knowledge compared to you(in this case ME)..

And the one who succeed are those who are super duper so called ass lickers..!!


* Bangalore Metro construction.


Bangalore metro construction is also one of them which irritates me, annoys me, bugs me, agitates me, disturbs me, well, you can add more synonyms to that ;)

Now, I’l tell you what is the reason this metro construction irritates me.

I have been born and brought up in bengaluru (it was earlier called Bangalore).

When metro construction initiated the first thing they did was by demolishing the beautiful side walk on the MG Road.

Then removing the iconic aircraft ‘Ajeet’ near GPO circle. This one irritated me the most because I have grown up seeing those iconic places and all of a sudden they are all gone..!! I was hurt.. I’m HURT.

Its like to renew your house, you are asking your wife to go away from your life ( well, I hope you understand what am I trying to tell..!!)

Well, as of now il stop here and when more things add up in my irritating list, I will jot down here.

Till read this il be back with new blog soon. C yaaa….
