Independence day

MOM & DAD: You need to serve India.
ME: I love myself more and I love to make big money.
MOM & DAD: You would some day come to know!

A series of incidents and I land up in US. In extreme vettieness I see tricolors on most of the random profiles on Orkut that I have been visiting.

“plz...do this...tell every indian to have indian flag as their profile photo on aug 15....try this...lets show our unityjust pass dis mess 2 ur frndz...... thank u”

Some time spent on reading about the Nuclear deals between India and US, I stumble upon an article in IBN.

Now I understand what my parents meant. I have been treading dreams of starting an Educational institution which would bear costs of living and tuition for some unlucky children in India some time later.

The pain in his stomach, the heat in his eyes and ears due to a fever, his skin slowly melting away, his parched tongue and throat, the weakness in his knees, the bones weighing down his hands, his lungs gasping for a breath, his heart pounding for a few drops of blood, death looming over and the boy’s wet eyes pleading to give him some food or a few drops of water, pleading not to take away life!

Memories of some gags from the industrial visit

CSE and IT traveling together ( boarding different busses though! ) for the first time.
Nothing interesting about that night in the bus except for we repeatedly asking Phani for the time ( he was working out at the gym , so twists his arm and tries to show off his tender BICEPS ). I had put on a monkey cap and a jacket, poor chaps, got scared took me for a militant. The next day we were in Bang. That was supposed to be an industrial tour so we were taken to Center for Development of Advanced Computing.This guy ( thinks himself to be Einstein ) put up a hog-wash with one of the developers there ( got his ass whacked for that muhahahah ). We visited the museum ( zzzz..), some guys lost track of time taking snaps and were left behind ( poor chaps had to do without the lunch ). Some guys left for the disco and we stayed in the lodge for some time. Tring tring.. one of them makes a call.. off to disco in an auto. ROFL… the auto wallah took us for pleasure seekers ( grrrr…. ) and started to tip us off with sources of public entertainment ( P.S prudes should read it as prostitution ). Took another auto and back to the lodge. ROFL …. Now this guy BKB is always ill fated, ROFL …(cant help laughing), jumped onto piss and started smelling the footwear (was confirming I suppose). The best part I got rashes on my back( darn the bed bugs ).

The next night we left for Ooty. 2 am everybody trying to get some sleep. Some guys having fun at the back. Suddenly Arun stands up enacting a zombie, with hand over the neck as though it were broken wakes up a guy ( ROFL… scared the hell out of everybody). Badly shaken by this nobody dared to take a nap all the night. enroute we had an elephant blocking the road , pitch black, could read only the sign boards ( leapord sanctuary )..gr8 after some time the elephant crossed the road and we vanished in a moment. Seems the bus, in which CSE guys were traveling, had to back off because the elephants gave a hint of rampage( muhahaha ).

The night at Ooty some CSE guys got drunk and planned to whack Mr. V ( hehe ). Mr. V certainly deserves a description here. Now Mr. V who resembles a malnourished African boy can put Arnold to shame with pompous talks( the moment he comes to you, you feel like twitching his hands) he says.." mama na shoulder ela undi ..., oka sari ma college lo volleyboll competition ayindi nenu single hand tho ma team ni geli picha literal ga kadu , nenu oka dive esa so na cheyi fracture ayindi so chethi ki dasthi katti single hand tho ada ....,mama nenu Ms. P kanta height kada" ( Mr. V is 5'4" and Ms. P is 5'8" ). This guy was ragged by the juniors on the farewell party they made him dance on Hrithik's kaho na pyar hain no. he put on a translucent shirt for that..... well cant describe this looney....

These guys were dancing near the campfire, the CSE guy wasn’t ready to let the poor chap off.
Somehow he managed to get out. This CSE guy took a stone and ran after Mr. V. Mr. V ran into our room, bolted it and turned off the lights ( enacting SHIVA muhaha ). Sure scared the hell out of us until the CSE guy left.

chalo thats enough ....

God bless the teachers and the students amen

This is one of the memorable days in my life ( as an Assistant Professor ). Today I had to deliver a lecture on Process Management and I was speaking absolute nonsense. The innocent faces touched me. I thought it was acceptable even if I dont give a lecture but giving wrong information is henious. I abruptly stepped out of the class. I was feeling so bad for talking nonsense and abruptly ending the class. In the evening when I went out for a stroll an idea struck me( thanks to the serene environment ). I drew inference from my Databases class ( me bows to Mr. Ramana Rao ). I started jotting down the notes for process management. The interpretation of the process has come out in a nice way ( me feeling overwhelmed ). Waiting for monday !!

This reminded me the lecture that I delivered as a review on the concepts of object oriented programming through java the last semester.

I am waiting for the good news ( one of my friends had an appointment with the US embassy for a student visa ) hope she had got the clearance amen.

where are we heading?

Isn't a physical relation outiside marriage ( can be a pre- or an extra- ) insane ? Recently I have read this blog in which the author supports prostitution ( public entertainment ) and boozing( thats a different story though ). Is anyhting wrong with me or are these people so drenched in lust? The images of alumini at xxxx universiy stripped off ( their modesty ) on a full moon and having FUN , apart from others made me post.

I thought i should ask people how they felt about this aspect. The only point, that I putforth, that made my peers react seriously :

" what would a guy/girl do when he/she finds his/her mother,sister/husband sleeping with somebody who is not supposed to be "

Some rules are made based on heuristics and you can not call it hypocracy or passe if your grandma or grandpa is trying to pursuade you to live by them.
