My Faith, sometimes

leads me to believe...

• That examinations wont suck
• That buses will arrive on time
• That India might win ONE match and not make such a big deal about it
• That once in a while, Indian films will have a good plot,storyline,screenplay
• That India will be rid of corruption
• That justice will be quick in Indian courts
• That i might yearn for something and actually get it
• That the "News" channels will actually start reporting the news and not mindless crap that would only interest soap-opera junkies
• That question papers contain questions on topics that i have actually studied or atleast read once
• That Himesh would just stop singing,acting,talking whatever
• That i will one day be cured of internet addiction
• That Sachin will start playing the way he did in the nineties and be injury free for ever
• That Engineering/Medical colleges will stop behaving like money-grubbing whores and actually think about the students
• That India would be rid of reservation for everything and anything and anyone

My Rules,Opinions,Pet Peeves et al

PART I

On Time Management
(also refer Waking up)

' Set the clock x minutes ahead to avoid delay-- value of x unknown, greater than zero and preferably variable '

On Cellphone Manners

' A mobile phone that is out of hands reach of the owner at all times, ceases to be a "mobile" phone...might as well be a wireless land line '

' What i hate more than people making calls from my phone without permission, is people receiving MY calls without permission '
ps. just for future ref. 'people' include friends and blood relatives

On Laundry

' If you are able to tell, just by sniffing, in which part of the house your favorite pair of jeans are, it is probably the best time to wash them ...'

On Indian Reality TV

' They are as real as Celina Jaitley's acting prowess...'

On Waking up

Rule 1
' Anything said to or by me after i wake up, uptill 20 minutes after, should be neglected, scratched from all records and forgotten for all eternity....i am NOT listening and not at ALL in the right state of mind'

Rule 2
' Always entrust the responsibility of waking you up on a crucial day with a loyal and punctual friend. Also, said friend should be fully aware of Rule 1.'

On Photography

' No matter how small the scientists thrive to make the aperture of the camera's lens smaller, people will still manage to cover the lens with their fingers while clicking '
