Kabhi kabhi dil chahta hai kuch aisa ho jaye…

Kabhi kabhi dil chahta hai kuch aisa ho jaye…

Paper ho par result na aye…

Classes ho par teacher na jaye…

Bus me baithe par college na jaye …

Picnic jaye or wapas na aye..

Hafte me tin din ho fir Sunday aa jaye…

Sote rahe din bhar aur shyam ko ghumne jaye…

Hum bilkul na padhe aur pass ho jaye…

Sab dost saath rahe aur chuttiyan manaye…

Jise chahte hain dil se wo apna ho jaye…

Barish me bhige aur zor se gaye…

Diniya ko bhul fir se bachche ban jaye…

Bheed se door apna ek duniya basaye…

Saari zindagi bas yu hi kat jaye…

Kash ye saare sapne sach ho jaye…

Kabhi kabhi dil chahta hai kuch aisa ho jaye….

---- Inspired from a Friend

Funny ....but True ....

A man in love is incomplete until he has married. Then he's finished.

Always do right - this will gratify some and astonish the rest.

Be careful about reading health books. You may die of a misprint.

Biologically speaking, if something bites you, it is more likely to be female.

By all means marry; if you get a good wife, you'll be happy; if you get a bad one, you'll become a philosopher.

Clothes make the man. Naked people have little or no influence on society.

Do you know what it means to come home at night to a woman who'll give you a little love, a little affection, a little tenderness? It means you're in the wrong house.

Don't keep a man guessing too long - he's sure to find the answer somewhere else.

Don't think of death as an ending. Think of it as a really effective way of cutting down your expenses.

Everything is funny as long as it is happening to somebody else.

Experience is the name every one gives to their mistakes.

Forgive your enemies, but never forget their names.

Home is the girl's prison and the woman's workhouse.

If at first you don't succeed, remove all evidence you ever tried.

If you want to make God laugh, tell him your future plans.

If you're not failing every now and again, it's a sign you're not doing anything very innovative.

Know your limitations and be content with them. Too much ambition results in promotion to a job you can't do.

Love is temporary insanity curable by marriage.

Men forget everything; women remember everything. That's why men need instant replays in sports. They've already forgotten what happened.

Money couldn't buy friends, but you got a better class of enemy.

Summer Vaccations ...

As the weather shifts from a pleasant one to a warmer one, its time to say goodbye and time to pack-up to head towards home for the summer vacation. For the 1st two weeks its fun … refreshing … away from a place we feel we are bonded laborers. From the 3rd week itself, you start feeling “when will these holidays get over?” There is nothing to do, nothing to read, nothing to worry about. What exists … is a perfectly idle mind. Yeah, An idle mind is a Devil’s workshop. Devil begins its spell on you and slowly you feel “why the hell, my friends not contacting me? Alrite, I am not dying for them… if they call, I will call back. If they sms, I will sms back. And they keep waiting for some fool to call them (occasionally, such fools do call up, but don’t get a call in return). Soon enuf they forget their friends, and recall them only in the next session.

But at NISER, I have observed a strange phenomenon. Some people completely change! The 1st summer vacation: a girl transformed from being the one who interacted indiscriminately with all boys and was undisputed favourite of all boys….. on her return failed to notice guys and is still living in her own world aloof of others!! Thank God! I had given her a (parting) gift just before the vacations! 2nd summer vacation: I got a new friend, with whom I had rarely interacted, but has become a close friend ever since. 3rd summer vacation: Two friends changed!! They won’t respond to sms, won’t pick up phone … as if they have left their gadget behind. I have a lot of patience, everyday I send a sms or call, all in vain of course. Loneliness at Bangalore upsets me a lot. But I m not desperate…. And there is a limit to my patience… so I decided that I should also change. I have changed … but only for them … for others I still remain that caring Rakesh. Hope I don’t find still others who have changed this semester.

Someone Like You ...

You will never find another person who is like you. Neither in the external world, nor in your family. When no two fingers on your hand are alike, what to expect from humans? It is surprising then that a husband expects his wife to “give him saath” in every deed, a father expects his son to follow him perfectly. How can this happen when they are so different? No two persons can think alike or feel alike, or love alike ; even if they do, it will be upto different extent. If they are forced to act in a particular manner, then they do so grudgingly and lose their happiness. So one should understand that there can b no one like you, as much as you can’t be like some one else. Each individual is unique……. One of its own kind.

Idea of a Friend

1. Someone who cares for you and someone you care for a lot .
2. Someone whose company is always sought after.
3. Someone who understands you (though there wud still be some dark corners inaccessible to him/her).
4. Someone who accepts you as you are (without bothering much about what others think of you).
5. Someone who always shows you the right path, whether you ask for advice or not.
6. Someone who has the healing power to handle you when you are disturbed, stressed or depressed.
7. Someone who would stand with you in your good and bad times.
8. Someone who would help you when you are in need. However this might not be a hard and first standard for determining the level of friendship as often a friend may simply not be in a state to help.
9. Someone you would wish to have closest relationship throughout life.
10. Someone whom you wish to see happy ever forever.
11. Someone whom you miss a lot whenever s/he is not around.
** Going by the above standards/postulates, it appears that a close homology exists between a friend and a family member.
**No doubt that this is the reason why often people feel to be in love with a friend of other sex. It is so difficult to distinguish between the two!!

Joke of the Day

At the corner of a mall, Why do Boys hold tha hand of their Girlfriend???

Bcoz, otherwise their Girlfriend would run to the shops for shopping !!

** Startling revealation ...But True !!

I am down ....

Ah!! The weather here at Bangalore iz sooo Goood.... that people often feel like settling out here. I like this place... my extremely caring labmates..n my Room-mate!! Three days back I fell sick..had fever ..but in a day recovered (Thanks to Prayam!!). But the night of fever was horrifying one!! I hadnt had fever a single time sinse I joined NISER.

The aftermaths are killing me. I have lost my appetite..though not hunger !! Everything seems bitter (except for the sweets and chocolates that are almost a daily phenomenon of our lab!!) and I can't eat much. I forcing myself to eat or else I will become extinct before I reach home and wont be able to attend the 2 dinner invititation by my boss!

As if this was not enuf...my whole body, especially back and legs are aching so much that I dont know what to do with them.. On top of that this Transplantation stuff!! Uh!!
I just wish that we succeed in mapping soon and return home !! But life here is making me tougher and rougher still ...

The 1st Poem that I composed.. "Golden Dream"

It shines as a star in life's sky,
It is the dream in everyone's eye.

It is the golden word “success” ,
Without which, life seems meaningless.


It is the sweet dream ,
I love to see every night.

When the sun goes away ,
And the moon emerges in sight.

Until now, I've toiled for the same,
But, believe me, its not an easy game.

I long for it in every new race ,
But it always ends up in a mess.

Failure has been a daily routine ,
And success to me remains unseen.

Failure comes to me every single day,
Be it June or the next end of May.

Each time I repeat, “I'll achieve it Today”,
The results say “Better luck the next day”.

Today, I lack in courage and power,
And simply nod “The grapes are sour”.

Everyday, my wishes have been overrun,
No surprise then that I hate The Sun.

Even Then, The leaves whisper its name,
To the breeze that simply blows.

With the sweet aroma of the jasmine,
Thoughts of success, to me, are so close.

I softly behold them in my arms,
But alas! Dream, only for a short time glows!

What Life has taught me !!

Life is too short ... yeah..I have already stated that .. but more than 1/4th of it spent sleeping. That leaves us with a still shorter time to play our innings. In life we cling on to lots of wishes, ambitions and expectations. We spent a huge dael of time thinking of what people have done to us, how they have dissapointed us , how they have let us down and so on. A lot of time is wasted , galons of tears shed (adding to water scarcity of the world!!) over small fights, verbal conflicts , visual illusions, apprehensions , interpretations, predictions and the like. Often this doesn't affect the person on the other side of the wall . Its only you who silently suffer .. endure the pain within. So, whats the point? Why get dissapointed. Remember "No one can let you down, unless you allow him/her to !!" You are sad because you chose to be so! Hence you have to find a way to pacify yourself. I found a solution for this!! Hence my statement " Whatever you do .. I don't mind; because I have no mind"... Problem solved .

Why Women feel more hurt by chilly than males??

Several Nutrition reports have shown that Women fee the chilly taste more stronly than their male counterparts. Bolywood has immortalized this fact in the song ".. Tujhe Mirchi lagi toh mein kya karoon??" . Scientific reports now say that we can blame it on TRPV channels!!

Transient Receptor Potential Vanilloid (TRPV) channels can sense Capsaicin which is the active ingredient of chilly. Now!! Estrogen (the Female sex hormone) sensitizes the TRPV channels to respond more actively to capsaicin, while Testosterone (the Male sex hormone) desinsitizes TRPV's responsiveness to capsaicin. So Gals ... blame it Hormones ... and Guys you are not smarter ..though your hormones are .. Njoy Chillying...!!

Happiness

People have done crazy things to get happiness. But what they fail to realise is that " Happiness is a Butterfly.... the more you look for it .... the more you chase it ..the more it ivades you. The moment you calm down and settle down ... it softly lands on your shoulders."

Don't try to catch it . Its within you ... its YOU !!

What is the "Aim of Life?"

Your aim isn't different from mine, nor is different from that of others. We don't aim for anything that an ant doesn't. Surprised?
I am not talking about Mokshya. The ant knows nothing about it... and we have just heard of it!! In fact the Aim of every individual, the aim behind everything we do is to "Gain Happiness". Tahts the real aim of life. We eat,drink,sleep,dress, talk,think ... all for the sake of Happiness. A thing which is ever elusive..
The defininition of Happiness would be a tricky affair, hence I wouldn't attempt to define it. But I would add " Nothing stays forever; everything has to phase out.. the clock has to go on. But the more happiness you distribute while you have it in plenty, the more returns you receive from the persons you had shared your happiness with... that propels you through adverse conditions which are sure to come as the wheel of time rolls on ... It adds fuel to your life.. enlightens it ... and for sure you can share the warmth with other lamps and keep it safe with them for lighting up your future."
