I thought opening the blog was the biggest step once i did that I would be writing away. Buttttt newton's 1st law holds yet again...have been stuck up in various events.... just so you know I have my final year project's mid term evaluation lined up, we are conducting Saraswati puja on Sunday and have been running around for that(will post the pics after the puja) and my interviews which are coming up.. so am starting off this blog on ohh so rather mediocre terms .... but then again just wanted to start writing thats all....
Talking of random events watched the movie Gandhi a few days back...yeah I know its old and ppl have seen it a zillion times...but was awestruck with the acting in that film at several points in the film Sir Ben Kingsley actually looked like the actual Mahatma...
As an Indian the film still managed to evoke a myriad of emotions in me...the freedom which we all take so lightly was so bravely attained not even a lifetime ago...the wonderful path of non violence non co-operation and the string will of a man who would settle for nothing less. A single act of violence was enough for the non - cooperation movement to be called off... That pride of being an Indian which is now so easily lost in these days of the global citizen...and the green card bearing NRI... Not that I am passing any moral judgement but am just appreciating the twist that time brings... The pain that he went through when the nation he wanted independent was divided in front of his eyes...while he watched on so helplessly...the insecurity of being a minority so easily removing the unity with which independence was achieved.The single act in history which left us with a legacy of strife, terrorism and discontent among neighboring nations...
Among other things my days are spent procrastinating,day dreaming and wasting precious precious time...reading up on current affairs and sleeping in classes events any engineering student is so familiar with...its such a rut thats its not even easy to get out off...but then again my work ethic truly sucks...and just am hoping to change that someday....with the hope that it happens rather quickly.....until next time sayonaara!!!
