EPIC

Sunday the 29th 

Things going smoothly right now......2012 does not seem to bringing much disaster yet except of course to the Indian Cricket team...no further comments on their devastation...

Watched some great matches of the Australian Open.....Rafael Nadal vs Roger Federer , an even better Novak Djokovik vs Andy Murray which almost stretched to 5 hours and the ultimate final between Nadal and Novak whick lasted as long as 5 hrs 53 mins! The words of Djokovik really touched me that "unfortunately there could not be two winners".....if you had seen the game you would know how true it was.....an unbelievable show of determination by both the players! You could hardly say Nadal less deserved the Grand Slam after presenting unbelievable backhands in rallies upto 31 shots !! I think Djokovik had some advantage .....he had an ultimate gf backing up! On looking at her innocent and serene face i wonder how could anyone not support her and Djokovik. Anyways it ws an EPIC match wid a EPIC gf

Tech fest of our college going right now these days.....Techkriti.... when i was in the first year they made it look so big by mentioning awesome scientist names or big budgets and sponsoring companies.... after my first year experience i discovered the best way to enjoy Techkriti- Go home and have a reunion wid ur families and friends!!.... To hell with lectures of Nobel prize winners- i remember i was trying to convince my friends to leave the lecture after the  first 10 minutes but we decided against it in courtesy of the Scientist who apparently had no better past times in his childhood than playing with conductors and thermodynamics documentaries!

Still Techkriti holds some great excitement for my wingie Anshul Porwal aka BBK because he has some intel that there is a stall of Malai Makhan in the foodstall region....that does sound like something i would be looking forward to... I did go to a lecture by RBI's executive director Deepak Mohanty.....it was nt as bad as i had thought though it did have lots of "direct foreign investments" and  "global capital flow" and other demoralizing words....

A list of conversations far more interesting includes a chat with a net friend Sachan who likes  speaking about her pains buried deep in her heart caused by an aversion to Bengalis (Note: Nothing to do with me)....and an aversion to their love for fish and their voluptuous built up (again - not my opinion)....I must sympathise with her not because i feel the same hatred....jus because i know the disgust at the smell and sight of non-veg food before you when you are a staunch vegetarian!  Though i am also bit surprised by the amount of things she hates- including Nadal (thats absurd !!), Hindi new songs(again absurd) and Hindi movies (not so absurd, judging by the crap they are filled with)!!  
I cant approve of this hatred especially when my neighbourhood and neighbouring state is filled with so many of them....!

Gave my RBI intern exam today.....not expecting any achievment... had free dinner at Anshul Porwal the BBK's house.....it included an awesome pastry(free and eggless).....speaking of pastry i must mention the pastries served at the Republic Day in our mess are not upto the mark and need an upgradation in quality.....though i had to take the responsibility of my roomie Anurag K Singh aka the Twilight lover (@$%#@#$@#) and finish his portion of breakfast too in his absence....i think of mentioning this in any interview as a selfless example of sincerity, humanity, good citizenship, responsible and sensitive to wishes of my co-workers and lots of other qualities we mention in resumes....

People who make attendance compulsary in their courses are the most confidence lacking ones.....they dont believe their lectures in open and closed sets and n dimensional spaces n daily changing definitions of continuity can attract students in their class....I believe this is not read by TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN and besides we live in democratic world where we are free to speak out our views!

2012

Time:1622
Date: 01*01*2012

New year! new beggining! new semester! new photocopy of others' notes!

The weather is so windy and rainy here that it looks like we are really heading towards the end of the world.
Returned to IIT campus on the 30th of December. I must make you aware of the fact that the year 2012 has been proclaimed as the National Mathematical year in India and December 22 as National mathematics Day in India.

31st December no longer remains exciting for me in college as it used to be when i was in school.In schooldays not just the 31st,but the whole last week excited me because they showed the best movies of the year and before on the television! Other than the gazar ka halwa being served in the mess anything else could hardly be called interesting on the first of January. In fact during my holidays my visit to Nokia service center was far much more better even when i had been kept waiting for over an hour. Actually they were showing the live Boxing match Ind-Aus test match and India was almost on the verge of gaining an upper hand over Aussies.
Did you know The BSNL people are one of the laziest people in the world??No this is not a funfact,but sure a fact i can testify. I have complained to several officials regarding the death of my beloved telephone on 1st of December but no attempts are being made by the telephone people to give it a chance of rebirth.

When i think about solution to any one problem of our country say poverty i realize it is because the people are illiterate and fooled by the corrupt people and also due to large population of India. Now if we want to eradicate illiteracy we need our education policy to be implemented properly and that can be only by reducing corruption. And large amount of corruption results from people being poor. All the problems illiteracy, poverty, corruption,etc seem to be interconnected and gound round and round in loops! I believe the only solution to this country's problems is me rising to a dictatorship. 


At least one thing should be immediately implemented and that is a Rupees ten fine on any1 who tries to spit in the public buildings or public means of transport or else soon India will become a red country! I don't think Gandhigiri should be implemented on spitters like in Lage Raho Munna Bhai.In fact stern action should be taken and the fine decided should not be a big amount because it would prompt the policemen to collect half of the money as bribes and also the fine should be not be so less that people dont give a damn about the fine! You must be wondering why i am trying to solve a random problem of country. The thing is that i am trying to save all my ideas which have ever occured to me, how weird they might be. I think i must discuss these ideas with my wingie Anshul Porwal the budhao aka BBK even though he does have a habit of getting emotional withe national problems!

When i had read somewhere in childhood about growing Chinese influence and Indo-Chinese war and how China had occupied some of our portion in the North, i had a plan to enter China via Mongolia or Russia and surprise them and create chaos and strike fear in their heart. My tution sir did not look convinced with my plan and believed i would be doing far better service to the nation by doing my arithmetic problems rather than plotting against the Chinese.I would be gradually revealing other of my plans in my future blogs.

Had a pretty interesting first day of new semester.....one of the new Topology instructor kept walking so fast to and fro in the class while speaking that it prompted the person sitting beside me to say that we can be soon expecting the Doppler effect in her class. I had made a bet with my conscience that i wont look at the time even once in any of the class....i almost won but in the last 10 minutes of the final lecture my will power broke and i lost!

Want to watch a great movie where a person gets stranded on an island for many years and to keep himself from going insane out of loneliness he makes a volleyball his friend?Cast Away starring tom Hanks. He is like the Aamir Khan of Hollywood. People generally prefer to say the other way round (i.e Tom Hanks of India) like Manchester of India or Mecca of football....we dont say Ranchi of France or anything 'Indian' of anything 'foreign '!! Also watched Ladies vs Ricky Bahl with agood amount of use of Forward button. My roomie says its copied from a Hollywood flick Spread. Hardly matters....we all have lost expectations from Hindi movies....esp after we get used to the English ones after coming to college !
