The "Extreme"
What happens when "extreme" love turns to "extreme" hate or vice-versa?What happens when "extreme" friendship turns to "extreme" hate or vice-versa?Just imagining thing itself gives me goosebumps.A person loses his childhood friend due to some circumstances and his most trustworthy friend becomes his arch-rival.Even in the TV series "Kahin to Hoga" when the protagonist "Soojal" (the lover of "Kashish") becomes the biggest foe of the latter(again due to some circumstances),it really befuddled me as a viewer.On the other side,I have seen some real life cases displaying exactly the opposite scenario(hate turning into love & enemies turning into friends).I had never ever hoped to interact with a model (leave alone befriending her).Now I am a sort of a person who analyses everyone around him.So my analysis about her was of an egoistic person with tons of atitude within her & I am a a simpleton in this regard(no airs about me) .So I believed I will never-ever befriend her.But as I interacted with her ,we became really good friends.Another example-when I fell for someone in my coaching who was very studious (again my exact opposite).Well the unpredictability of life is kept in a see-saw balance with the "extremes" , isn't it???Think about it.

Love-Tech /Tech-love
We all know how smartphones have revolutionised our lives.All my friends are connected to me via various social networking sites like Facebook,Google plus, Twitter.We have access to instant messaging services like WhatsApp ,Hike,Telegram and many more .Most popular of them is undoubtedly WhatsApp .Few months back WhatsApp introduced an option of "Blue Tick" in WhatsApp which meant that the person has seen the message after it has been delivered to that person.It was a centre of controversy and lead to the fall of many relationships .The reason behind it was that if the sender did not get a reply even after there is a "blue tick" which meant that the message was "seen" the sender would interpret it as a "sign of betrayal" against him or her.Strange! Even before the advent of smartphones technology there was an emotion called "Love" which only required "trust" between two people.Nowadays it has become "love tech" /"tech love".Last evening I had a bit of situation closed to being a "conflict" (No we did not have a direct conflict) .The central point of this situation was that I couldn't recognize that it was her friend on WhatsApp chat and I had presumed that I was chatting to the owner of the smartphone.Strange! While I told the smartphone owner if she is serious about me,then she should decide who should have her phone in her hand.I mistrusted her just because of a stupid smartphone. Strange! After she started sobbing ,I realized I have hurt her.The guilt is still there in my heart even though I have said Sorry multitude number of times and she has forgiven me .I don't know whether I will be able to forgive myself ever simply because I had mistrusted "my dearest one" just because of a stupid smartphone technology.

Journey in a General dabba
Every one in India who has travelled in a "General Dabba" of Indian Railways will relate to this blog.I have travelled in a "General dabba" twice in my life .Yes ,not once but twice .Trust me ,I am not kidding at all.Once you enter the compartment ,you will see everything so scattered inside it.Its worse than my own bedroom which is far less scattered & far more cleaner than a "General Dabba".But getting inside it can also be an arduous task itself .You hardly get any chance to set your feet inside it.Once you enter inside it,you will see people occupying each & every corner .What's worse they occupy the toilets as well.I salute those people who can survive inside a railway toilet. Hats off,seriously .The people who can sleep while they are standing are great.But those who can do so in a "General Dabba" are far greater .The ceiling fans which will work only if they feel like.At last, I will say that even though I haven't been to hell even once but still from the description I have heard about hell,"General dabba" fits into that perfectly .

Nothing has changed,yet something has changed
Today i went to college .After a long summer vacation,I went to college.Many thoughts were running through my mind. On my way to college,I witnessed the usual chaos,same traffic.When I stepped inside the college ,I had an unusual vibe.I met some friends .As I was climbing up the stairs, I saw the class room of EC 4 th Year .I looked there ,smiled a bit.Afterall I had some memorable experiences over the past few months with my lovely seniors of EC 2k15 batch.Then i reached my classroom.I was wondering,just few months back i had been priviliged to meet my fabulous branch seniors(2k15 batch) ,who studied in same classroom. A senior faculty member was already there .I sat through the lecture.Suddenly i felt like crying ,smiling at the same time but couldn't do any of that.i attended all my lectures.I coordinated Literary cell's meeting . Then I reached my home.Now I realize I am part of seniormost batch of our college.As they say with great power,comes great responsibility.I know I have to a bit more mature in every thing ,activity I do..Truly "Nothing has changed yet something has changed"...#1day1stshow #BtechFinalYearStudent #SeedheDilSe

Free advice(Conventional Wisdom)
Most of us come face this statement at least once ---"Sharma Ji ka beta Engineer bna hai,vo bhi IIT se .Uska package 20 lakh hai.Main bhi apne bete ko IIT mein dekhna chaahta" .The scenario may vary,the name may change from Sharma to Verma or anyone else but the crux remains same .We are living in a society of morally & emotionally uneducated people ,where everyone is adviced to do something or the other irrespective of what we want .If I tell my mother that love marriage is more successful as we are aware of or life partner .She has one answer ---"Tum Abhi badhe ni hue ho.Apni marzi se shaadi krne vaalon ki life barbaad ho jaati "etc etc.I am the younger sibling so I am offered free advice for everything ."Beta tu padh le ,beta aaj padh lo,40 k hokar aish hi aish kroge,beta kaayde se hug le(pun intended) ,beta ye ,beta vo." When I interacted with my fellow students ,I found it was a situation which everyone faces.Every elder person advices the younger person .Its like a free advice offered to everyone .This is what I term as "Conventional Wisdom" , a wisdom as per the conventions.As I am writing this blog ,my mum is yelling at me "Padhai vagarah krta ni ,saare din phone p lga rehta(Practical example of Conventional wisdom )"So I will stop typing ,.........Maa main jaa RHA nahaane....

The "One"
All those who know me closely ,know that I am absent from "common emotions " and don't let them overpower me. Few days back my mausi asked me --"Palash(My nickname) do u have a gf"?I answered in negative.I was in a deep thought for a long time about who is "the one". Then I got the answer ,who she could be.The " one" I always crave for must have some distinct qualities.She must an engineer probably from electrical /electronics(or both) engineer.She must be very talkative but also be a good listener.I would love to date a non-pahadi girl.If she is a good dancer,it would be better because I am a decent singer(Opposites attract ).She may not have a good communication skill but when I look at those eyes,I must feel answers to all my questions in those eyes .She must me naughty & Decent at the same time .As I hardly panick ,she must have an opposite nature(so that I can calm her down).She should not be arrogant ,I hate these kinda people .If she is studious ,it would be better because I am not studious at all .She should have a helpful nature.Lastly I will say she should be someone who makes me feel that I have some good reason for my existence .Maybe I know "the one" ,maybe not.Maybe she knows me ,maybe not.Maybe ,maybe.........Considering about all these specifics ,I prefer being single because "maybe" I don't get a girl like this ...Final answer is again "maybe "
