Piffany

Sometimes in life you reach a crossroad where whatever that has bogged you down can either bring you down or buoy you up. And whenever you reach that point, believe me, it's some tough situation. Situation which if handled properly can make you a better person or either make you a sordid ass which is surely repellent. Those people who are around you are the real deal, one who overlook their stuff to help you through the bad times. I know it may sound cheesy but it's the truth.

 After what i experienced i think friends and family play a very vital role in shaping what a person we become in future. Nothing else matters until and unless there is someone to share with, thats what katrina told to hrithik in ZNMD!!, either it be money, fame, success anything which the world has to offer. Whats's the use without the people you love arent around? So why is that we tend to hurt them the most?

That's one question i surely wnt be able to answer because i have a big knack of hurting those around me. I know it's not something to be proud of but i guess thats the sorry truth. Even while writing this i did mange to piss my sister off. That is i guess is human nature, to break up and then try to make up. To do wrong and then try to make it all right.

Doing wrong in life is not a measure for one;s failures but the measure for one's experience to avert those in future. A wrong decision always overrides all the hundred right ones. It always hogs the limelight, all for the wrong reasons, making a person disillusioned to think that he's not a rightful person. But i think the truth lies in the eyes of the beholder. A person a either live with the fact that he made a wrong choice or sulk in the misery of it.

I really dont know about what i'm trying to write but i guess that's the beauty of surprise, life would be so dull without it. People hear and see what they really wanna see and not what's supposed to be seen so i guess one should have a good perception and judgement for a better life. Try to be a good person. The reward aint assured but for what it's worth the judge(god) is always on a lookout.

Prospective

Presumptive nature of a human being  is a precarious habit, one which they cant live without, something which thrives on their judgemental  mind, which is something so cheap that it can drive its victim crazy. Many times one comes across a situation in where even before the action is taken they get judged just because their previous actions were NOT UPTO THE MARK. Is it fair to say that they dnt deserve a second chance? Is it fair to say that the stereotyping that they have received is justified? The answer lies in the mind of a sane person, which are a seldom sight these days.

Everyone deserves a second chance. So much so that once a person received a second chance in his life and he choose to accept it and went on to right the Ramayana, yes it was Valmiki. So if ancient people believed in second chances so why dnt we? If a person has introspected and has realized their mistake they should not be denied that one chance.

Stereotyping  is human species's specialty best served cold. People tend to label a few group innocent of guys laughing loudly around idly as goons, a average kid as good for nothing, a girl hanging around with a guy in arm as a disgrace. I think all these group of people would have the perfect explanation for their acts, some of which i can think is: those guys were very decent were having a reunion after a long time, that average kid was having some personal problem, maybe his parents were getting divorced, so he could not concentrate on studying, that girl was with her brother for heavens sake! If all those people who preassumed about them would have come to know of this would feel so ashamed.

All i'm trying to convey is not to stereotype anybody as that person has its own individuality(personality) which is subjected to change from time to time. So next time you stereotype a person should think it through before putting a label on other people's head.

PEACE OUT.

Amused

Today as i was sitting in my examination hall peering at the question paper not wanting to know the contents of it(because it made me sick to my stomach!). I finally took the courage to look at it and with no surprises it was something which was beyond me(because i didnt had the time to study for it i.e.physics since a day before i had my SAT exams). So with all this free time in my hand i drifted off to my own thoughts which were very random and after sometime i came back full circle with the paper in my hand thinking what to write? Then it stuck me, what do my school authorities were looking with this exam, did they wanted to know how much i understood or how well a student can mug up facts figures and formulas?
With a practical person like me it was very unfair because it tested what already has been done rather than encouraging for us to do something different. Schools follow the same old monotonic curriculum, which rather than stimulating only suppresses a students ability to be inquisitive, which is nothing more than a disappointment for a student's credentials.
Schools should look for more enthusiastic response from students which is possible only when schools introduce more professional courses rather than those rote learning ones. The change would obviously be radical but should be gradual.
In fact it is possible this practice can be changed with the help of teachers. Teachers are associated with the grass root level of working of the education system and it ultimately falls to them for the working of the curriculum for a particular class. If they were not so much concerned about their own targets of earning bonus points they could have actually taught something worthwhile to people we call 'STUDENTS.

CONCLUSION: Who am i kidding?! Nothing's gonna change here for years to come but all we can do is to attain some personal consciousness to better ourselves on our own rather than looking for support, as Rancho said in 3 idiots "follow excellence and success will follow you pants down!".
 Till then GOD BLESS INDIA!

Once upon a time there was a guy who tried living life normally but just  couldnt for many reasons, be it studies, friends, family and a whole bunch of other reasons. His life have had a fair share of drama enough for him to realise the working of this brutual world early on. He goes about his life trying to handle the expectations which he god knows how got associated with him. Like any other normal teenager has cravings for those 'worldly pleasures' but avoids them so not to be labelled as the'bad boy'. He tries to do the right thing but one is prone to mistakes. His heart lies in the right place but people tend to mistake that for his weakness. If he tries to help an unknown girl she mistakes for him being a flirt or fake. People think that he is a pushover. He got stereotyped by people around. This is the reason why he changed into an angry and a frustated person, which he never could have imagined himself like. All he want to say is that he gives no shit to what people say about because he never cared and he never will, so why dnt those dumbwits just try to utilize that for there own betterment as by default all those who gossip have no life of their own. And the biggest FUCK OFF from his side for all those who think that they know everything, when they know only shit, and try to advice him what to do with him life. He cares for only his loved ones and will try to do right only with them because all the others are just not worth the effort. Once upon a time there was a guy.

False Hope

I'm sitting at my IITJEE prep class wondering what would it be like when we finally reach college. Would it live upto its hype of fun and great experiences? The question remains unanswered but for now we ought to be content with limiting ourselves with going through the gruelling sessions of studying, preparation and a fair share of expectations which in no foresight helps any student. The teachers are in a daze that they are teaching future IITians, they are giving only false hopes to the students and parents who take the bait rather happily thinking that they are securing their kids future. No doubt that these prep classes do help but somehere down the line everyone needs to accept that not every student can match the level these engineering college expect. Some of us dnt really want to or cnt really match that level. I think more stress should be laid on professional courses rather than subjecting each and every hormonal charged teenager to go for these sterotypical courses which have plagues or rather caught the fancy of the society as the only respectable courses after school. In this context the system followed by USA education system is commendable. The college process starts from 2years in advance with the school actively participating in helping studens decide with rather trivial stuff. The courses offered are much more vast than offered in any other country. The stress is laid more on working knowlede than textual knowlede which is not the norm for indian colleges(i hope someday it changes). But in these ever changing times the number of studens going for undergraduate programmes have increased substantially which was not the case sometime back as indias target it mainly for postgraduate programmes. I seriously hope someday the indian govt wakes up to change this flawed system or rather Mr.Kapil Sabil for the reason he is one responsible for this mess as 10th graders would agree with me. I'm hopeful but not optimostic.
