What The Heck!

Today, I was standing with a friend waiting for my car when I saw a kid perform a stunt with his bicycle. He looked so cool doing wheeling and I had the urge to learn it and do the same. I conveyed my thoughts to the girl standing beside me and she was like, “Hello! You are a girl! You don’t want people seeing you do that!”
Now, that was something that really annoyed me ( though I did not show it at that time). Eventhough what my freind said was right, as in people would gibe at me, but the thing is: why having restriction on one’s action when it is entirely harmless? If a girl does something out of the normal circle of activities of females, she is bound to face criticism. I hate it when people cannot stand others to be different from them. They, normally, class them as nuts.
All this reminds me of a story I had read in a book. The story follows that there was a magician who hated the people of a kingdom, and so he mixed the poison in the well from which the people drink water. The next day, all the inhabitants had drowned the poison down their throats and became mad. The Royal Family, however, was saved from drinking water. The King, seeing the odd behaviour of his subjects, issued the order to the health ministry of providing his people with some medication. Since the entire nation was suffering from the poison, they considered the action of King to be insane and marched to the fortress for his abduction. The King was about to give up when Queen told him to drink water from the well and become like the others. The King then ruled till his last breath.
The thing to be understood from the story is that out there in the world people have drunk from that same well and want others to live the way they want. They would throw all the criticism at someone who acts out of so-called normal. What is to be done is so give a tad about what poeple have to say and live the life the way you want.

So, if I ever get a chance, I will learn how to do the wheeling, and I will do it while not even sparing a single thought as to what people will think of me!

Education is Must!

Day before yesterday, dust storm had every inch of my room covered in dust giving it a new look. However, the maid intervened and she cleaned the room excluding the area occupied by my computer table for there were wires all over the place. Since she was afraid of electric components, she did not bother taking the risk and left my computer table as such. In the end, it was me who was left with this tiresome task. It took me full one hour to tidy the outcasted place and in cleaning up all the hardware including the interior of my mouse, when I could have been doing something important!

During cleaning, I was thinking that cleaners should be Matric pass or at least they should have studied “Electricity” topic in Physics. They would be then literate enough to realise that fully insulated wires cause no electric current even when current is passing through them (I am not making it all up. Actually this is exactly what the maids think!). Also, it would save others all the trouble of going through the boring job of making things speckless when something far better awaits their attention.

So, what you people say: slightly literate maids would make a good job or should we restrict ourselves to the old ones and get our precious time wasted (no eyebrow raising for I have become a bit time conscious. Cheers!)? However, such literate servants would be hard to find.

The Witch of Potebello

This novel of Paulo Coelho revolves around a mysterious woman Athena who was orphaned when she was born. The story is actually based on the interviews collected from people who had known this female. From what is written, the miseries and problems faced by Athena are made clear.

Also, the novel goes into the details of some long forgotton religious traditions. According to the novel, there is a spark in a person which can lead to “Mother” partially possessing the body of a person, if he acts out of routine. I found this ideatotally absurd.

Furthermore, there was mentioning of God that if He is replaced by a goddess, there would be love, peace and passion in the world. What a ridiculous thing to put in a story! Before you think it was a fiction type novel, let me remind you that real people had their interviews taped.

Anyway, I found this novel a bit touchy at start but towards its end, the story was not at all interesting. It was then full of trances, aromas, Mother -the goddess of Earth and skies, St. Sarah -the Goddess of gypsies, and some other boring stuff regarding powers.

If you are seeking a pleasure reading, please do not go for this novel for you will be then constantly cursing Paulo Coelho.

HELP!!!!

Today I broke the burette worth Rs.1400 especially brought in from England!!! The ultimate damage to the school’s property! Now, this is something to be really proud of!
The lab assistant, however, did not take it as something to feel good about and he so not sympathised with my carelessness! He had me sign the register confessing my crime!!! I was tensed earlier. I have just Rs. 500 in my account ( that too by some luck!) and there are still a thousand rupees needed (the option of going to my parents is out of question)! Now what? And then clicked my mind: Why not to follow the policy of Paki people and establish “CHANDA BARRAI BURETTE”?!
So, “Merrai pyarrai naik aur hamdard musalman bhai aur bheno (some buttering had to be done), give your donations to your this Musalman Baihun and save her from the wrath of her superiors! It is a prestigious month of Ramazan and you will be rewarded for this nobel act. So, hesitate not and give “Chanda barai burette!!!”" ………

Humorous Bumper Stickers

Caution: I drive like you do!”

“I brake for scholars, priests, and no apparent reason.”

“You’ve obviously mistaken me for someone who cares.”

“My other car bumper sticker is funny.”

“I’m in no hurry; I’m on my way to work.”

“I’m not a complete idiot, some parts are missing.”

“I just got a new car for my wife today. Best trade I ever made.”

“Back off! I’m not that kind of car.”

“I may be slow but I’m ahead of you!”

“I’m not deaf… I’m just ignoring you.”

I found these while I was googling for  quotations for a cousin. So, which ones do you think are the best???

Check it out…THE BLACK PIT!

My sister came up with the idea of painting the wall and i was given the contract of doing the job (it was a daring thing to do for there was a chance of getting spanked by my superiors ). Black, my favourite colour, is dominating the whole painting and at night, it does look a bit scary. the mural had been ruined a bit by the kids with their wet hands. they must have thought of giving the painting their own artistic touch!

anyway i think i did make a good job of it, what you say?

GOT 1st IN DEBATES!!!

INJUSTICE JUSTIFIES VIOLENCE

Presently, the foremost concern of the poeple is to make this world a peaceful place to live in,for it has drowned in the ocean of violence. However, exceptions are always there, and my heart bleeds when i see its my own colleges who are ready to advocate violence. My own people! Tut tut. Anyway, you will find my case entirely different for i am standing here to condemn violence on all grounds;let it be because of injustice or some other thing!
Sir, looking back in time, we see that the past is full of various personnalities who had been unjustly totured, persecuted and yet, they sticked themselves to the moral values, fought peacefully, and succeeded not only in acheiving their goals but also, in wining the hearts of the people. they did not relent to violence for violence, as Isaac Asimor said, “is the last refuge of the incompetent.”
In case you are wondering who these non-violent strugglers were, i give you the examples of a prominent leader. Definitely, all of us know about the great political leader of India:Mahatama Ghandhi. Its pretty clear the injustice he was subjected to, like he was jailed a number of times for supporting the right and voicing out what the Indians had to say, but all the time, he asked his followers to be firm and not to go for violence. he knew it then that if they started carrying out massacres, they would be reaping the same of what they had sown. he had said and i quote,”Victory through violence is tantamount to defeat, for it is momentarily.” And look, the solid proof of his success is the 60 years old India which is thriving and progressing at a real fast pace.
Just to strengthen my argument, i present you with yet another peace lover: Martin Luther King. He initiated movements on non-violent lines against the social segregation the blacks, including him, were facing. And guess what? He too succeeded in a short time.
Now comparing these two figures with Nailson Mundaila of whom we know had unleashed violence, things become crystal clear. although north africa was liberated, but it was mostly beacuse of what was going on in the world i.e. different countries were breathing their first breath after they had been given freedom, and not so much because of nailson mundaila. Also, consider the violent policy of talibaans which has landed Afghanistan in a stone age.
Mr. President, the thing is: when violence is used as weapon, hollow victory is acheived and this too after a long period of time and through great losses of life and blood. now the point to ponder is: why not to make matters easy through peace and get an early success?Or is it that we have become so blood thristy that we are ready to blow the heads of innocents when we have another option?
Sir, that was one aspect of the topic. let me bring your attenbtion to the other side of the story. It is true that we civilians are shown injustice by others. Sometimes, our rights are suppressed and sometimes, we are levied with high taxation that go beyond our capacity to pay. To put it precisely, things happen in life which kindle the fire of revenge in us and make us want to throttle the other person. We think that it will extinguish the fire of rage burning in us- only to be proved wrong in the end.
Sir, it is a fact that a person’s thinking and conscience is clouded when he is enraged.To him the solution lies only in lashing out at his oppressor, which is ofcourse an easy way, not knowing that violence is like a food chain; he eats someone today only to be eaten by someone else tomorrow. this cycle of violence will continue from generation to generation and instead of having a society of humane human beings, we would have serial killers and psycopaths! How terribly cruel! i mean we have a new child and his fate is already decided to become a terrorist! that innocent soul could have become a rightly called human being but instead, he is to now try his sadistic rituals at some other innocent being!How abominable!!!
i think i have made my point and now it is up to you to decide whether injustice justifies violence when violence breeds violence which inturn increases injustice.
that concludes my debate.
thank you for your attention
