Goings on

Sometimes I think time is passing by without me really getting a good grip of the happenings around me...I feel like I need to hold on to every precious second that makes me feel elated about something, or sad or well..generally evokes intense emotions that I want to hold on to. Just to feel like I'm living. Like now is happening, its real, in a way that I can't get it back. Like the laughter that rolls off while listening to crappy karaoke in the campus pub, or the frantic run to catch a bus towards an awaiting adventure, or the biting pain of having skin bruised by a thorny scrub, or the joy of staring up at a starry night sky, knowing that I'm going home to friends .... all those moments of elation, the twinges of jealousy, the agony of partings, the pride of accomplishments...they fill me up and I don't want to let go of them. Just not too soon.

Etre une femme!!!

Its complicated being female, trust me. And trust Billy Joel to enlighten the world about such a matter! However, while it is needless to state that we're all not born the same, that second x chromosome does inevitably lend us some characteristics which remain largely invariant among the female half of the population, and keeps the other half either wondering, or swooning, or grimacing, and most of the time just plain clueless.... as per situation (albeit keeping scope for differences). Between the daughters of Eve who walked the earth and their (great)^(10000....) grand daughters who now do the same, there are, if noticed carefully, similarities that have actually crossed the barrier of all those extra zeroes in the domain of time and thrived. Like cockroaches.(?) However some of the points may include references applicable to the present times only. Women are intelligent. No modifications or amendments or criticism of the statement shall be entertained. We have higher EQ

The Inheritance of the Geek

Image
What shall the Geek inherit?? If one is stumped by that one, I declare, one hasn't really been keeping awake. Look around, inhabitant of the Blue planet,---- look to see the prodigious third of the wondrous solar family sinking helplessly into the hands of the Geek. Not that this god-like status of His is a modern development. One gains familiarity with the meddlesome habits of remarkable godfathers of geekiness, the likes of the the DaVincis, the Newtons, the Edisons, the Einsteins the Hawkings, and their tiresome doings shoved down one’s unsuspecting digestive system rather early-on in life. No, the world has never quite been sublimely free from the grubby, tinkering, poking and prodding hands of its curious human products perpetually contriving to thrust everything from a thermometer to a nuclear reactor down its side. So how would you define the domain of geekiness? I doubt that it has a far greater outreach in the throng of the human society than just a great deal of h

This too shall Pass

There are two basic theories which define the actual occurence of events in the universe....one, the theory of randomness, or chaos, and another, the theory of exactness,a mathematically designed infinite chain of events, equations, that occur owing to some preordained mathematical objective which is necessarily destined to occur. Both, I must confess, are highly complex ideas that would require advanced logical analysis which, needless to say I happen to be quite incapable of, and yet, the underlying principle is surprisingly easy enough for every human mind to comprehend. The theories themselves appear to be paradoxical, none offering a substantially accurate solution within our logical reasoning capabilities. Sometimes, (notice when we are frustrated or excessively overjoyed about something) it seems like everything upto that point has been carefully designed to give us cause for the intense misery or unexpected elation that we may be experiencing. At others, our lives and eve
