Reminiscenses

This blog is collection of incidents happened in school days.

Drawing sir incident..

We were having a drawing test, where in we are asked to draw on topic "Fox catching grapes"

when I had finished drawing a fox, Due to my excellent drawing skills fox appeared as a dog.

(Dog and Fox do look same though :) )

I had shown that drawing to my friends who are sitting beside me.

they started laughing,,. and sad thing is that they were unable to control laugh..

so my drawing sir noticed all the drama that went on.

And I was made to stand up and got big shot on my back (Just like beating a drum)

Entire class became utter silent.. I was bit embarrassed by that incident..

Social class incident..

It was some social class ,, Am not able to recall name of the social teacher..

I was last bencher in class, As a punishment for not writing

notes and not listening to class Iwas made to sit in the 1st bench for that class.

Teacher went out for some time in between the class for some work. I was feeling

very sleepy that day after listening history lesson.

So as soon as teacher went out for a while, I slept on the bench and asked my friend sitting in 2nd bench to

wake me up when someone comes to class. His name was Rishi..

Then suddenly one of my teachers (Swarna latha mam) entered the class as students were making lot of noise.

And unfortunately mam has observed me sleeping in 1st bench. The guy didn't wake me up..

I got another blast on my back.. This was 2nd incident where I felt embarrassed.

Aruna teacher class..

Aruna teacher (for physics),, she was very cool. I used to enjoy her class more as lot of funny incidents used to happen.

Usually whenever teacher asks me a question, I just used to stand up and look at ground. All the classmates used to laugh as I

never answered any question. And after that Aruna teacher's comments were very funny

(Like "Enduku paniki vastharu ra miru eppudaina oka answer chesina mohamaaa")

One day a girl named X was having bubble gum and teacher had caught her eating bubble gum in the class.

Teacher was furious by observing that and shouted at her to throw the bubble gum in the dustbin.

After that incident, one day X was asked some question by teacher, I got excited and whispered "bubble gum"

(But it was audible to all) But fortunately she thought that “Bubble gum" was shouted by some other guy (Harihara...)

I escaped from her scoldings.. :D

Some more incidents from my school to come...

DREAMZZZ.....

This is all about a Strange dream which i had few days before.

My dream

There were 2 guys walking on a road. One of them is myself. The other one i am unable to find (No clue)

One in Full white dress and other one in Full black dress.

I saw a Bird, which is in half black and half white in color, chasing us.

The Bird is indeed very strange (half of the body and one of its wing is in Black color and other half in white color)

Size of the bird is same as that of pigeon.

That bird chases both of us. Especially the bird seems like attacking me.

It attacks us from behind flying at full speed to me. I just lay on path, bird comes very close towards me, without hurting it just flies away.

Then i stood up and started walking. Again the bird starts attacking from behind, i just laid on road, bird comes close towards me and flies away without hurting.

This continues for 4 times. After a little thought i asked other guy not to walk along with me.

Thinking that the bird is chasing us as we both were walking together.

I urged him to move away from me. Finally he leaves me, but again the bird starts attacking me from behind. This time it attacks

me from behind, while i just lay on the path. Atlast the bird pokes me on my neck with its beak. Blood started flowing from my neck.

Bird continously pokes me on my neck, complete blood flows out from the neck. After this i suddenly woke up from dream.

Earlier i read a Novel "Interpretation of dreams" By Sigmund frued.

As he states that : Nothing you do occurs by chance; every action and thought is motivated by your unconscious at some level.

In order to live in a civilized society, you have a tendency to hold back our urges and repress our impulses.

However, these urges and impulses must be released in some way; they have a way of coming to the surface in disguised forms.

So i wanted to interpret this dream, What does it mean to me?????

Thereafter i read a lot of things about dreams, but am not able to interpret it...

THIS IS CALLED SCREWING BADLY

I want to write about one of my test paper, which I screwed so badly.

Test consisted of 3 sections English, Quant, DI

English section
This section has always been a nightmare to me which consists of

i) Incomprehensible & never ending passages

ii) Erratic Sentence correction questions

iii) notorious FIJ questions

iv) Jumbled sentences. etc..

I usually take a bath before I start answering any english paper, so that i wont sleep while reading psycological/philosophical type of sentences.

The passages in this section were so large that 1st glance at each of them gave me atleast 2 yawns. But there is no other way out to escape, have to read these boring philosophical/psycological passages to get some marks.

Coming to English sentence correction questions. These are easy to read and more easier to get them wrong (already made a mistake " more easier"????)

Let's see some typical sentence correction questions, where in you need to find out grammatically incorrect sentences
a) His wife divorced him because he had had an affair

b) We have been made to suffer so much from memorising rules by rote that we tend to despite grammar.

c) "Students can come to my home and they can be a part of it, but there are rules"

Just as soon as I finished reading sentences I saw 1st statement as wrong one. How can this happen "he had had an affair" In this fashion I answered all the questions with confidence.
But the real cry started while I was checking solution sheet.

The answer opted for above 1st question was (a) But from solution sheet answer turns out to be (c). I wondered how come its possible, but explanation of answer was this way: Sentence (c) is wrong as "we are part of something" not "a part of something". Article is used only when we want to indicate that we 'play a part' (a role) Similarly 2nd, 3rd gone wrong,,,,,then I hoped atleast next one would be right..OOOps that too was wrong. Finally my solution paper was filled with more cross marks than tick marks. Atlast I hoped I will end up in positive marks, Unfortunately I ended up getting negative marks. I can't express my feeling. That feeling where I didn't know whether to smile or bang my head against the wall.

Other sections to be contd...

Brooomm ,,Vrrroom gggeeeee hhbeeeh

Brainy stuff....

Oxymoron is a literary figure of speech in which opposite or contradictory words, terms, phrases or ideas are combined to create a rhetorical effect by paradoxical means.

Oxymoron is simply created by a 'moron'. I would simply say it is a nonsense creation made by famous writers like Shakespeare. These create more confusion, and also make statements tough to comprehend.

See some statements taken from Shakespeare's Novel

O brawling love, O Loving hate

What is this???? Loving hate (this statement is logically confusing but has meaning)

Here comes problem for readers. They have to fight against their logical mind and analyse deeply.

Though, after analysing we may feel that it is a masterpiece creation. (Loving the feel of hate "what a way to express") But all these kind of statements are not my cup of tea. 1st impression I get after reading statement 'loving hate' is more a feel of love than hate.

But instead meaning says feel of hate is loved.

See some more.

O heavy lightness

When can this happen?? Or what does it mean?? My brain is not able to fight here and get the meaning.

Does it mean lightness is so heavy?

Here's one more to the poor brain

Bright Smoke

How can smoke be bright???(Logical thinking of brain) But after analysing we see that statement implies that 'Smoke is clearly visible'

See this....

She is just a poor little rich girl

This is a bouncer...Now is she poor or rich?

We also do lot of creations in order to have our own rhetoric effect. See some of them....

Original copy, Virtual reality, pretty bad, serious joke, Perfect mismatch, Dying to live, painless torture, Best worst movie ever made, bad luck, fried roast, friendly fights, nothing much etc..This list goes on.......

Now, enough of brain eating oxymorons. Let's see some paradoxes.

These paradoxes are also bewildering. See some famous paradoxes

This one from Socrates

"I know nothing at all."

Then how come he knows that he knows nothing.

Another simple paradox:

This statement is false

Statement asserts that it is itself false. Hypothesis that it is true leads to contradiction.

Now enough of brain eating stuff, let's see some brain friendly mnemonics.

Mnemonic: A form of words or letters formed in a way to assist the memory.

One famous mnemonic: BODMAS rule while calculating.

e.g.: one from my school days for trigonometry

'All silver tea cups' which means

All sine, cosine, tangent angles are positive in 1st quadrant

All sine angles positive in 2nd quadrant

All tangent angle positive in 3rd quadrant

All cosine angles are positive in 4th quadrant.

Also confusing words like practice/practise or advice/advise can be remembered well with some hint. Here words ending in -ice are nouns and -ise are verbs. We can frame our own mnemonics. (E.g. I see as verb.)

Now dear friends post some funny Oxymorons or some Mnemonics which will be of help.

Cosmetics of Life

When i was born i was like vicks.. (i want to say it as figuratively by shape,

dont mistake that i created more headache, though its true that i troubled my parents by constantly nagging and all.. Hehhee)

After crawling for some months then i stood up like standed Vicks..

Ponds cold cream: I was like cute fat chubby guy,,unfortunately only for few years. ( 5 to 8)

Garnier ultra Doux: Ultra masti time,, played games like anything and got scolded from my parents for only play and no study

Clinic all clear: period of +1, +2, B-tech 1st year...

The age where masti/fun is all cleared, no more fun, masti...+1, +2 occupied with studies and b-tech 1st year(due to ragging we were not allowed to go out of hostel block)

Cinthol: From 2 year b-tech, again masti time... enjoyed talking to girls (see image....hahaha)...

Dermi cool: Again very cool period,,, college final year... Didnot worry much about studies,, many nightouts for gossip, playing carroms and all..

Vaseline Intensive care (Total moisture): Job life begins,, Very tough conversion phase (from college to Professional life)

where we sit for hours and hours before PC,,,and no masti,, only responsiblity and we become very lazy and finally shape out..

(fortunately for me little to worry as i can't grow fat easily...hahaha )

Next phase is to build a body and become a body builder like AXE..hahaa

Other phases of life are yet to be experienced..

Wait for more cosmetics.... heheheheh

CHANGE YOUR MIND TO CHANGE YOUR WORLD

This article is a combination of thoughts taken from different sources and thoughts which I have perceived.Here I would be presenting some ways in which our minds have learnt the things and impact of those things in our life.

We keep on hearing the words like man must live for others; altruism is ideal etc.

Effect of such words: If we accept such words then we have to sacrifice many of our pleasures in order to please others. This is in contradiction to our desires. So later we realize that we are incapable of what we have accepted. We feel our selves obliged to preach what we can’t practice. This gives us a sense of guilt, of sin, of our own basic unworthiness. All these feelings let us down. We give up our personal value. Our soul gives up self respect.

We hear words like always keep laughing, always smile.

Effect of such words: Laughter is an instrument of human joy, but if we laugh at everything; it becomes our destruction. We don’t revere situations with giggle. We will just obey to anyone & sets no limits to our obedience. Anything goes, nothing is too serious.

Words from parents told as a mark of their care. Words from parents like don’t go near the fire, you will get burns. Don’t play with Knife, you will get cut. Don’t Jump from wall, you will get bruised.

Effect of such words:  These words will have a strong impact. The negativity lying in those words (like burns, cut, and bruise) is strongly impressed in our minds. We doubt our capability more because we fear the negative underlying in any act and we set limits to our achieving capability. The limit which we set largely depends on how much we are exposed to such kind of words.

Words from society like respect to others, behave decently, etiquettes etc.

Effect of such words:  All these characters have to be learnt by becoming mature rather than hearing the words from others at earlier stage. If we just hear those words and start following them, a sense of hesitancy, fear grows within us.  We become hesitant to put our views forward because all such words make us more conscious and we tend to act in a way so as to impress or please others.

It is important to realize that some of the things which we have been learning over a period have to be unlearnt.  

Help me get back my COLOR again

This blog is all about my senior, a very good friend of mine whom i will be missing.
As he will be leaving company. I dont have much to say here, but My senior (jerrin) is an motivation for me in many ways. He is the person from which we can learn a lot. He is very good at communication skills, making frds, even he can get well with Foreigners (lang is not a constraint for him). He is one of the most helpful guy i have met.He is cool at all situations.

Now i am sad because i will be missing such a frd...
My situation can well be explained by the pic i attached.The pic says as mentioned below.
"Dear frds i have to go and meet my frds,but suddenly i realised that i had lost all my color. Given below is my photo (original image of the bird with colors is shown). All you have to do is get your sketch pens and color me".

My situation is also the same
Dear Frds i am losing one of my good frd. So Please help me by providing me with all the comfort that i will be missing without him and make my life more colorful as before.

Tittle-Tattle

Starting with my mobile alarm.I usually set my alarm at 5:30 or 6:00 with a hope of waking up early. At morning one of my friends who are sleeping beside me yells Reddy, Reedddyy, Rrreeeddddyy After a while I wake up with great effort and pick up my mobile then press snooze, after 10 mins of happy sleep again mobile starts ringing with its irritating alarm. As I am more adamant than the mobile this snoozing activity continues till 7:45. Finally with all scolding (What is this, nonsense and all) i wake up.

I reach company gate between 8:38:35 to 8:40:54. Only important task at that moment for me is to punch identity card before 8:45:59. This is the only instance in my day where i value time in seconds. I run from gate to punching location on 70% of days. After so much of struggle, starts morning meeting, issues etc etc... After that I settle before my PC and start checking mails. I feel irritated on checking reply mails given by counter part. They can't understand my concern, and i can't understand their concern. After so much of disgust i start putting my concern once again to counter part, this time trying to be at my best, but finally I end up being worst.

This is all because Keyboard is so messed up with very close letters. You can imagine what something harmless like duck could easily become just because the d and f are just one key apart.

The other one is because of the guy who has invented alphabets. I'm sure you've observed how the letter m looks like r and n together. If you haven't.

Check this now m rn. Another similar letter is d. Observe this d cl.This one is really dangerous. As there are many words which give entirely different meaning just by replacing d with cl or vice versa. Have a look at this example. Imagine the way a sentence like "shop with just one click" can turn out to be. How much embarrasing it is to make such a mistake.

Explaining things to Japanese is really a painful task. While writing mails you have to be darn careful.

And you have to send attached files explaing with figures,arrows,text boxesetc...

After so much of running and morning meeting issues, i sit up for writing mails, where i end up doing all kinds of mistakes.

See blow (below) mails for what I wrote and the correct/edited version of the mail.

What To Write? (WTW?)

I thought a lot to write this blog.

what to write ??

what to write??

My 1st idea was to write any memorable personal experience of mine.

again lot of thoughts running in my head. 

who will be interested in reading all this kind of stuff.. no body has that much time or patience to read this gossip.

Then again

what to write??

what to write??

Then i thought to write some interesting stuff taken from any of blogs available on net

and in doing this there is no any point in writing a blog. Instead it is better idea to put up links of good blogs and articles which i liked on my blog page.

Then again 

what to write??

what to write??

Then a thought came to my mind to write about my interests

This is again in a no way it's a good idea. After all everbody has interests.

Then again 

what to write??

what to write??

Though i am amateur in finance,economics i thought of writing about 

For an amateur it takes atleast some initial work to write on any of these topics.

And i am lazy to do that work.. 

So this idea is also dropped.

Then again 

what to write??

what to write??

I started looking and observing my surroundings closely so that i may get something to write.

every thing in my room beds, bed covers, laptops, tables,, everything.

but again my room is no different from any other bachelor's room.

i dropped this one too.

Then again

what to write??

what to write??

Finally i decided to write something what all i thought..

so this is it..

The End (like my senior used to say Khatam karo, itna kyun sochthe hoon)

No more thoughts..

Reason for writing a blog

Sriny-epithet for srinivas
Smiley-my niece name.

Why do i blog?

Though this question is taken from one of my frd's blog.
This same question is being asked by my frds.

So here come my honest answers....
Major reason is I decided to give blogging a try.
Other reason is desire and curiosity to explore different areas and want to collect the different opinions of my frds...
Also the thought that the things written on blog will be read, dissected and debated by my frds makes me more responsible to collect authentic information.
