Here I go

First of all it feels so good to read all the crap after such a long time. Its been almost a year that I have visited my own blog.Seeing all the drafted posts ,all the little things I have scribbled,all the feelings that I was going through while writing each one of them,just thinking of all of these is refreshing.

I could read my last post on the blog and it reminded me of the time when I had my life taking a strange turn.The post may not be very clear but to me every line had something in it and I remember every moment of it.Hell everything has changed so much.

Starting this blog has always been in some corner of my mind but I could not find a right moment to go on with it.All this while I have been sailing through my life.Moments which have crushed me literally,moments I still don't want to be reminded of and of course moments which have motivated me to stand up all this while.
As they say "Life goes On",its going on for me..rather its running for me all the time.
Well the first change I see,I am no more a college student and thats a lot for a person who would run away from a serious life.
I am out of the perfect world that I always lived in. I understand that Life is a game that one plays according to the rules.
I seemed to have acquired some negativity which I am continuously trying to get rid of.

Just minutes ago I was with a old friend living my old days, having discussions on all the irrelevant things,discussing about all the stupid things that have happened to us.
It was really energising.All the sleepless nights and the sleepy mornings ,everything was coming back to me.
Just then this very thought of writing something struck to me as it has always been very close to me.
There is a sense of satisfaction now that has been missing for a long time.
Well I just hope that its just the beginning of a very good story !!

Confessions OF A Strange Soul!

A guy always believed in moving on in his life not remembering the things he has left while he has "moved on"! He always thought he would manage if he has to move through that same phase again, not knowing the game of LIFE ain't that easy ,simple to play !

He always knew that when his weaknesses would be revealed it won't be easy for anyone to accept them but still he was ready to take a chance !

But the Risk doesn't always pays you "GOOD".All his life he has tried to explain himself to the world.This time he thought things would be somewhat different.But thinking doesn't always pay you "GOOD".In his case it never Does!

He is heading no where..he is afraid of the sinking feeling he comes across with..This time its taking him away!

An Engineer

Its been 3.5 years of engineering.7 semesters,infinite number Exams,endless list of friends and millions of moments to cherish . The best part is that I am left with just 6 months and I will be Er.Ankur Luthra .This "Er." thing in front of name sounds cool.
This post is about some of the things i have learnt about Engineering during these days !

1. If you are good at drawing you surely gonna clear an Engineering exam.
2. The probability of you clearing an Engineering Exam increases with the number of sheets you fill up(no matter what crap you have scribble in it)
3. A good Handwriting always attracts good marks (So join Calligraphy classes if you think you havent got the marks you were expecting)
4. The golden rule of Engineering "If you are told to explain about a COW and you know nothing of it tie that COW to a TREE and start explaining the Tree"
5. "A good sleep before Exam"-->this facility is strictly prohibited for engineers .We study just a night before Exam !!
6. Bottom Up approach helps everywhere . I explain this argument of mine with an Example

Q : what does 2+2 equate to?
Ans :BSc student: 5
Bcom Student:22
Engineer: "ye bta do kiske equal prove karna hai..Ho jaega"[:P]

So the thing is Try from answer and you will eventually make it!

7. Worship "Google" and pray its server never goes down.Its the source of all the projects to be submitted.
8: Having a Bf/Gf may affect your performance (It may do wonders for you OR it may make you a stupid moron . The behavior of this statement varies according to people)
9:Bunk is the Fundamental Right of an Engineer.
10.Annual Fest preparations are meant for "Chance maaro" activities .So this is high time for you to show some talent.

I have a lot of such Universal Facts about Engineering Students.Would share them in upcoming posts. I would like to invite the readers to jot down anything special or interesting thing they feel about their stream.Do comment !

It happens only in India

Well its been along time I visited my own blog..I was kinda stuck (rather I am ) with some engineering formalities. So taking some out of the mess I am back ..
To start with the post lemme wish all of you Happy New Year.Well lucky you that you are not busy in preparing for a semester exam when outside you can feel the fun and the enjoyment happening.Certainly takes me back in School Days .Leaving behind my half yearly sorrow let me
come to the point !
It didn't take me time to give a title to the post .Well if you are a regular follower (If not Start reading today ) you must be knowing how many problems i have With out Great Country "India".

So if you think this post is gonna be yet another "Ankur's" reflection about the "Poor" and "Messed Up" India you definitely need to give it a thought coz you are wrong !!
Finally I have found something to really cherish about my motherland.Its just the incident that happened to me 3 days back !!

I was coming back home and just then something went wrong with my bike and it stopped .I tried Black and blue to start it but in vain So i was pushing it and hoping that my house comes soon.The only thong i had in mind was that I have to push it all by myself and somehow reach home.I could see people passing me on their vehicles.It seemed that the smoke coming out it was laughing at my helpless state..

Many passed no one realized there was a poor soul pushing a 120kg demon on the road..Amongst those selfless and unaware herd was a Supportive soul who offered me help.. as i was walking the distance i saw a old couple going on LUNA(a 25 cc motorbike).As they passed me I could see the lady behind looking and me and the moment she looked at me she told something to her husband(I suppose) ..They were around 100 mts away then.

The old man stopped and saw me in need.He moved on .I was wondering why did he stop in the first place .I saw the person taking a U turn to go to his right lane(the other section of the road) and going against my direction . Just2 minutes after ,I saw the same person coming from behind .He stopped and I realized that he took those 2 extra U turns for me.ButWHy ?? Who am i to him ? I Was asking Myself this question and just then I heard a soft and a gentle voice saying "Beta kya hua"?(What happened son). I was like Nothing Sir just some problem with bike. he asked me if I needed Petrol I was like No sir thank u I will manage..He took a can he had in his hand and started popping out petrol from his Petrol Tank.I was shocked and surprised..This was weird to me..I didn't know him after all!

I asked him to stop just then and told him that i had enough of It.He was like ok fine He even offered to push my bike.I was like stunned.Why is a unknown person showing so mush interest in helping me ! after repeated offering and refusals (sounds like proposing to gal and the gal rejecting again and again :-P) i asked him what pushes him to help me. Ofcourse, i didn't mean to offend him .he was like"Tum hmare bete ki tara ho"(you are like our son") .Agr tumhari jaga hmara beta hota to tab bhi hum rukte na"(if it would have been our son in your place we would have stopped") !!I thanked him and said that i would help myself .I could see him not satisfied for not being able to help me.but somehow I managed !

Well I was feeling really good to see such kind of humanitarian souls who had love for others in today's time.. I Proudly say this "IT HAPPENS ONLY IN INDIA"!
You won't find any damn place in the world where a unknown would consider you his son just by seeing that You need help !!
Well yeah it May seem to be just another incident to anyone but being involved in it and looking at those helping eyes of the person i was bound to think more and more about it.. I would never forget that face for sure !!
Hats Off... I wish i was like them...!!

Hey i would like to invite the readers to tell me something they experienced which makes them feel that there is no place like India!
Do share your experiences..!

Good One

Found this poem written by An african guy on Google !! Man it says so much! have a look!

when i grow up i black
when i go in sun i black
when i born,i black
when i scared i black
when i sick i black
when i die i still black.

And you white fellow

when u grow up , u white
when u go in sun,u red
when u cold ,u blue
when u scared,u yellow
when u sick ,u green
and when u die,u grey

and YOU calling me coloured?

side effects ---> 26/11

I don't feel good when i write this....We have been raped again!!

The last two days I was glued in front of my TV watching the whole Mumbai incident.It was really horrifying to know that Taj and Oberoi hotel were in the hands of some senseless and inhuman people aka terrorists.I think i need not explain much about the details about the incident..10 terrorists..more than 190 killed..many brave soldiers died..RDX ,guns, arms ,ammunition found..

I dont blame anyone for this..Actually this was to happen.because we certainly dont want to understand..Everytime they come to attack ,every time we condemn,every time we plan about a future course of action.every time a committee is set up..but nothing happens !! we are a country of wimps lets us accept that..there is no harm in accepting one's true self..Every time they attack its more deadly and more painful than the previous one...They blast more deeper ,more harder into our asses!!heck! Seems they want to show us..Really you are a bunch of 1 billion shameless craps..A handful of 10 terrorists can shake the whole 1 billion population..rather the whole world...wow such power !!
I certainly don't feel safe in my house.. any moment a terrorists gonna come..a blast on the door..and damn i am a hostage!!
I am certainly least hopeful about the situation improving..I see myself bugging my damn mind over another such incident some two months later..i wish i never had to..but when i hear statments like "bade shehro mein ek aadhi ghtnae ho jati hai " from the hon'ble minister i become skeptical !!

Really Enough is Enough..its time for us to stand.. "Together We can" certainly we can !!
don't let those sacrifices go like that.. We have suffered a lot.Let us show that this country will cut that hand when it points at us..!! If those wimps calling themselves the well wishers of the nation,if those men of promises are only concerned with their dirty politics cant do anything let us take the initiative!!


I just have to say:

Mr terrorist I Am alive now what will you do
Mr minister I am alive despite of you
I am an INDIAN!!

As i end this post i search for some courage and inspiration and i remember these lines by Rabindra Nath Tagore:

Where the mind is without fear and the head held high;
Where knowledge is free;
Where the world has not been broken up into fragments by narrow domestic walls;
Where words come out from the depth of truth;
Where tireless striving stretches its arms towards perfection;
Where the clear stream of reason has not lost its way into the dreary desert sand of dead habit;
Where the mind is led forward by Thee into ever-widening thought and action;
Into that heaven of freedom, my Father, let my country awake.

Salute to all those real heroes who died in this unfortunate incident..You really are true sons of this motherland.I wish i was so lucky !!

Jai Hind!

Enough Is Enough!!

Well i came across a really wonderful video on Youtube and thought of sharing it !!
