Non-Detail

Have u studied Non-Detail books along with ur regular text books in ur 10^th, +2? I don’t know about CBSE, but in State syllabus, usually u’ll find these books.

 

Generally these books will contain a story or two in detail, having around 100 to 150 pages.  You’ll get plenty of marks (in ur end exam) from this book when compared to your regular language text book, grammar and etc.  In my studies, I had “The Merchant of Venice” written by Shakespeare & “The Moonstone”, a story about an Indian diamond stolen by an English Man and the journey thereafter.  These books were just like novels.

 

Now the point is, y’day, I got a doubt y these books are called as Non-Detail books?  As these are having more details of a story when compared to the stories in our ordinary text books, they need to be called as “Detail” books, isn’t it? I just wonder about what was in their mind while naming these? Do they think that these details are not enough to complete the story? Then how can they expect us to answer all those questions on the story?

 

Any how, my gut feeling is that these books need to be re-named as “Detail Books”; otherwise those authors’ souls won’t rest in peace…

Dance Class

Seedu joined dance classes… babhi maa joined, no? he had to… any way… but funny part is that he is asking me to join… me… dance class?? U r kidding, right?

Have u seen AB’s dance in Delhi 6… "Saas gaali deve"… song? Simple but gr8 steps, no? I’m practicing that number… I don't think I can do it... but lemme try...

Meetings

These days, I’ve been involved in so many meetings, design reviews and etc etc that I don’t find time to work even on the concepts decided in those meetings!!

But lemme tell u, meetings r invaluable yaar… u’ll find nice coffee, bikkis, sometimes samosas at ur table; u can take occasional naps, enjoy people fooling around … and haan… great moral support as a bonus!!!

Moral support??? Lemme explain, if u have any doubt that your thinking abilities have come down these days, just enter into any damn meeting, n spend ur quality (?) time over there; trust me at the end of the day, u’ll say hi to Einstein in the mirror!!!
(Inspired by “A Stranger in the mirror” title, but only by title, I don’t like that novel… Sydney Sheldon’s baddest one)

After experiencing a hell lot of bakwas meetings, I found couple of steps to be followed before, during and after meetings.

1. Never turn up early (of course, as an Indian u’ll turn up at least a good 15 minutes late, but still I warn u (wildly) guessing a foreign reader for my blog). Otherwise u will become “The chosen one” for writing those bloody MOMs (minutes of meeting).
Always keep in mind…”Early birds r vulnerable”
2. Place yourself in a remotest place in the hell… sorry hall; Beware!! They’re on a hunt for bakra(s) who’ll take up responsibility for each and every point.
3. Never act intelligent! Suggestions r best kept to urself only!!
If idea is yours, then implementation will (also) be yours!!!
4. Don’t laugh at their stupidity; they’ll feel u r a foreigner to this planet.
5. Never argue, u’ll become one of them. Just watch and njoy!! If u can’t bear, just take a nap.
6. Always leave meeting early…I don’t know the reasons… but I found it’s good.
7. Always ask somebody to call u when u r in the middle of meeting… that shows u r busy person…
8. Keep an eye on bearer for biscuits and chai… u must grab the first ones otherwise that moron may show you an empty plate…then u’ve to smile like a guy who smiles at his by-stander in the bus-stop after missing a bus in span of few seconds after running a good half kilo meter huffing and puffing.

SD once said: A meeting is a place where minutes are kept and hours are lost

I like it… it’s true… literally…

Crushes

I've started dis post a long before... but could not complete it as I thought of giving more details of each of my beatiful crushes. But now I'm afraid I can complete it or not. So after thinking a lot, decided to write in parts... here we go...

My 1st&2nd crushes: Mads & Shars

I don't know who's 1st and who's 2nd, but both started in my 6th class study, yeah it's 6th... little late, no? At that time I had a very tough time to choose between them. Both r gorgeous in their own ways.

It was a healthy competition among 3 of us for the second spot in the class. But Mads always has an edge over Shars becuase of her family background in academics. But, at the end of day, I always stood 2nd in the class over throwing both these lasses (Is it correct? I don't know, I thought of writing Plural "Lass").

I forgot whom I liked the most, but as far as I remember, Shars was a gal of new generation thanks to her outfits and accessories and Mads was just like a gal next door with innocent looks and intelligent thinking. Shars was having a beautiful face with naughty attitude.

Anyways, now I can't recall both these gals faces...

I always feel that these 2 gals are not the first ones... I feel I had a crush before my 6th std, but I could not remember... that poor gal...

To be continued with my 7th class Rads

Shit

Yeah... we start with this... literally!!!!

Here we go!



Few facts about Shit and the process involved in doing it:-

1) It always comes when you are in very much hurry to catch your office bus and you are having heavenly 300 seconds to leave your home.

2) The moment you step into that holy room, its gone! (Sucked up by some inexplicable and uncontrollable force that has decided to punish you for a crime you committed the previous night...mmm..well, I think its lays+kurkure+coke!!)

3) When you are there in the proper position, it refuses to come out!

4) Once it comes out, ur mobile rings or there is someone at the door.

5) The moment you go out to get hold of the rascal trying to disturb you in the middle of your holy ceremony, it turns out that the rascal doesn't even know you (Either wrong number or a salesman!!)

6) It refuses to come out again! Gotta do something to please it out!

7) Again, u need to work hard, pray to all gods to get it done!

9) Somehow, water stucks up in the toilet, and ur may pant/towel which is stung to the hanger falls down and drenches in to the bucket water just nearby; you will be in such a peak that you can't stop the process just to save that poor towel.

10) u need to curse your destiny for that and again concentrate on this heavenly process, oh wait... Yes, I am blessed. Yeah... I gotta go now... and last but not least...

after that ceremony... u must feel that ecstasy... You feel u r the conquereor of this world...
