RAINS, three FRIENDS and a MEMORY

Image
Some incidences are worth happening… Just a take: It was a warm day throughout…had to be…April mid n Vidarbha… But somehow the weather became cool by 6 in the eve…may be it was a good omen… I came back from the classes and was just about to relax, when it started raining… These rains had something special…couldn’t guess then… A very dear friend came rushing to me…asking me to accompany her to some place to meet someone…was not suppose to move after a tiring day, but agreed for her sake… we took our scooty and zoomed…enjoying these very mild showers…with a wisp of wind…cool n pleasant… Was to meet someone unknown…and din’t have any idea who…we looked for him for almost 15miutes or so on a beautiful green road (one of my favorites)…n were about to go back when the rains started to pour heavy…but found him…that person…standing alone on the road, waiting for us or rather her coz I was the ‘uninvited guest’ kinda… got down our vehicle and was introduced to him… was I glad?? YES inde...

What's On Your MIND???

Image
Everytime I open the Facebook webpage…the first thing I have a look at is…Notifications for sure J …The next I scrutinize is the box saying…”What’s on my mind?”… Then starts my extrication… Digging up mind on what happened in the whole day… Things so strong or may be strange… And the best of the lot takes up my status place… Our Brains are a big big store…acting as cache…keeping a lot stored in it (just the study material evaporates at the time we need it)… knowledge, emotions, smiles, sadness, etc all kept reserved in here… Sometimes I feel that the above question is so damn unfair… On our mind is so much… We have the past on our mind…some happenings gloomy and some gleeful…some thrilling and some down-hearted… We have the present on our mind…things to be done now… We have the future… “what next?” always trod in our thinking…We have emotions on our mind constantly… We have the devotion on our mind for the work we are here to do… There are people who stay on Facebook all the time...

Thats How it begins....

Friendship is a matter of chance…we meet…we like…things trigger and it’s just done…never does it need any mahurat or any particular scene…n they are the ones which last forever… We were together in coaching classes but had never known each other…one evening accidentally both of us were waiting for someone to pick us up from there, we had a first talk…did high schooling together and became friends till the end…me and Priyanka… I joined “Orkut” in 2006…new to the social site, had least an idea about it…just then got few friend requests and added them…had talks with them…first on scraps and then on personal chat…learnt a lot about each other and realized that “yep, we can be great friends”...met in person and conceived that this bond will last for long…me and…ummm…Soham, Nahush and a few… I joined Sewagram…there was this fellow who worked there in some department…who lend me a helping hand saying, “need any help, let me know”…never used the privilege then…tried bluffing him through ...

Juxtaposing: an Engee and a Medico!!!

Image
Always it keeps striking me…what if I had become an engineer instead of a doctor??? There was a time I was almost sure about going for engineering in Computer Science…had always fancied carrying a folder on my shoulder and a drawing board in hand… But I swapped back to Medical…though given a chance still, I would love taking it as a course too…after MBBS ofcourse… Imagining how it would be to attend an engineering college…I have almost all my best buddies doing it…even my cousins…not a single doctor in my family…have been hearing a lot from them about their institution and life…I just put myself sometimes into their shoes and let me wander in their campus… We have these lectures to attend the whole day…at stretch sometimes…haven’t heard of an engineer doing so till date…perhaps that would be a relief…a heavenly feel…getting up late and just going for the practical classes…aha…awesome feeling…and after the practical sitting somewhere in the campus and chit-chatting rest of the time…...

Toying LUCK!!

A Student who faired out in exams…his mates say “Kismet buland hai yaar uski”. Another student who lost out on the exam front curses “Kismet hi kharab hai yaar” ‘Destiny’ aka ‘Fate’ aka ‘Kismet’…something which may be envisaged as fore-ordained by the Divine powers….something which beholds several meanings in lives of many…some trust it, some don’t…some believe it, some don’t…but it exists in every life…though as denial for some… For me…Destiny is luck…and I swear, Luck doesn’t work for me…to mock it off I usually give a famous proverb to all “Luck favors the Fool”…it has been only 10 times out of hundred that I have experienced this luck working…when a fresher, there was this day of result when I had seen many a students or even my friends gaining a seat into MBBS even with less marks n equally less hardwork…and it stroke my mind…was I to blame for it??? Or it was my luck to be blamed??? But optimism shone in my life then…which help me come to a conclusion that “Lord may be has ...

VeLLoRe VoYaGe!! (Day 2)

Image
Now we all were in the normal stage…I got up early and then…woke up all…and further…all set we went to commence the sessions of the day…again…the first half…we understood few things but not all coz still we just knew few basics about the theme…we kept gazing at people just and taking 10% of what they told…lunch time…was a mixed reaction thing now…for we merry on getting time off…but were equally pissed off coz of the food…still…being the jolly 4…we din’t let the things go bad for us… Afternoon…a session on one my favorite thing…literature search…and a great deal learnt of it...new stuffs like Zotero and all came to light...indeed Vasu Ma'am can be considered to be a biggest literature search expert in India... But an evening lecture by an Australian doctor, journalist…real cliché of the day…the way he spoke…the way he conducted the talk…the inspiration he gave us…actually imprinted a mark of awareness in our minds which did become the talk for the rest of the day… When we wer...

Commercializing FAITH!!!

Image
Just got back from a pilgrim place after a day’s outing…and exhausted!!! But was shocked by an issue… Everyone loves GOD….everyone has a faith in GOD…n to show this credence is why we go to his feet…a pilgrim place…visit him n tell…yup…we trust you…for being there always…just besides me… But...today what I witnessed…shattered my belief… Luxury lovers…have found a way out even in worshipping the deity in an easy way…and the “Pundits”…messengers in their own accord…are capitalizing this… I met a Pundit who had his visiting card…with the name, address and contact number…you call him…tell him about your coming there…and about the ritual you wish to perform…he’ll arrange all…n even your stay plus food…and take surplus amounts of cash from you for this…from what I estimated…he earns more than 2000 a day…that’s more than a common middle class person’s salary…even there had been some kinda offer special for the festivals…and pamphlets printed to convey so…n this is not the case with on...
