the buzzing bees....

After a long stay at home due to jaundice in fifth sem, all i really could do when i got back to mysore was study.I had already decided to go core mechie...things looked like, i need to put in more efforts.
Study, i did after all....Fifth sem was a satisfaction.

The "stay busy" bug bit me once again when i returned for my sixth semester.I looked like i needed a big dose of responsibilities to keep me on a high, to keep me going..n then it came..it came in the most unpredictable form, the way i never expected......Cyberia'09!!!
One lazy evening i just was loafing around with ajay who already had dragged himself into the cyberia hurricane, when he asked me to come along and check what the creative commitee guys are doing....
And there it was....lols of creativity and fun in waiting for me....the very first day was soooo damn interesting that i had decided that i am going to be a regular here...n that way i endedup making the goodu deepas and gave twisted,eccentric ideas for thedesign of dexter posters...
I really dont know, how Dencil- the commitee head put up with me....now a great friend of mine that she is...but then she never opposed to whatever crazy ideas i suggested!! A DREAM FOR A CREATIVE COMMITTEE GUY.....
No wonder after the fest, she was feted with being the BEST Senior by the junies..JUNIEES..what a bunch were they..so damn enthusiastic, so damn funny, cool and crazyyy!!!Those guys reminded me of my first year....

IN the run up to CYB..i ended up with more friends and responsibilities...n the party was just as much fun....

JC, i knew,which i thought had lost its path trying to become autonomous,more knowledgeable and updated had become the JC i knew when i had first heard of it...the beehive..

Silence is intriguing...

i have been reading papers, magazines and papers too for almost two months now. Things have been very disturbing and very humiliating .Time and again i wanted to write this , but every time i had to ask myself about this....
"What do i have to say about 26/11 and the things that followed..?"

Is Indian leadership really considering serious action? I mean, what is India doing about retaliation?? Well, i don't just mean waging war on Pakistan...i mean it was our pride that was hurt.
Then we had this great wave of hysteria called "SLUM DOG MILLIONAIRE" sweeping all the international film festivals and finally Indian masses. Even as my friends continue to enjoy "jai ho", i am shocked by the kind of response our film critics, calling it the due given to bollywood.
i dom't know what would they be thinking to say when it was rejected by Indian masses.

Then came our Ramalinga Raju and his fraud, the "MILLIONAIRE SLUM DOG".....what a timing it was?!!
Global meltdown, layoffs and the terror panic.....

Among all these i find my friends still happily preparing for some college fest, some party, some other happy occasion.Its not that i am angry at them for ignoring this and moving, i know, somewhere inside their hearts they too would have some thoughts about all these. but i am just afraid the way the overall attitudes have been like. i had heard a long time before that we Indians have a slightly modified dna that allows us to control our hunger for more time than other ethnic groups....but control of this magnitude!!!!!

man this kinda silence is just soooo intriguing........
