Hide and Seek

 Weather changes real fast :)
It was raining in Sharjah this morning and it really set up my mood.
While i was lookin outside this evening i saw this awesome view which you don't really see on typical UAE evenings. The sun is not usually shy like this in most of the evenings i have spent in UAE.
PS: 3.2 megapixel. -.- don complain

On the way


Hellooo! Look who's back! No no don't look back, just look at the name at the top... that's what I always forget to do and then I've to scroll all the way back to the top when it gets complicated...
So here am I writing a moving post to keep myself concentrated on something as I'm falling asleep. Actually I'm going to the airport and kinda afraid of this road too. first of all this post has nothing in relation with me changing countries or aeroplanes, I'm just going to drop my mom to the airport as shes going to Dubai tonight...One really needs to have a lot of guts to travel alone on this road during the night time, but I'm not alone.
Past 4 months I was a bit busy, actually more then a bit and especially the last one and half month.
Well it's really getting colder here as we are crossing over Beas river and the driver could hardly see anything through the windshield and I'm shivering mouth to toe not all parts though...:P
And yea! would like to welcome our new followers too as my friend RJs doing a great job out there in ERA, don't know much about other anthropists but I hope they must be doing something useful out there in the world and not like me driving bike or cars like maniacs and escaping accidents every now and then...
Time to say good bye as we are finally back on NH1 and have almost reached Amritsar [just love this city and its citizens..:)]
Ps to RJ: "R" for Rajesh looks good but "P" for Padhayi looks complicated with so many "P"s around...;)

R for Rajesh n P for Padhai!

Hi all..

Looong time since my last post coz m busy trying to scribble "Dr." in front of my name everywhere, n it's apparently gonna take 5 n half years, so yeah m a lil busy.
Anyways...lets talk about something more interesting, the college...the people n may be the mentality...hmm...nice

Well to kick off...I would start from the hostel...you see, this is the first time I have ever shifted to a hostel, so it's a bit alienish for me and also quiet discomforting sometimes...the food, the rooms, the silence, the noise, the talks(the pakarr pakarr...lol)...the mentalities, the friends, the so-called once and finally...the Sundays...god! I had never imagined that I would partially start liking a particular day from the 7 we have and I have...in love with Sundays.

The college...

It started off very hunky-dory but slowly got a lil compli-dory and then kept becoming a sort of burden. Just because you had to have the attendance and since we have our seniours tryin to complete theirs with us, we xactly know the consequences of missin the classes. So six tiring days, so many lab work to do on sundays...it's a killer!

But the college on the same hand becomes a likable place due to some people...umm...some particular people who...listen to wht you say, appreciate ur riches and disapprove your wrongs...who like you for wht you are and well...for some reason...they look Beautiful! There are half a dozen people who I think qualify for all this and If I say I am writing the post coz of them, wouldn't be wrong. The simple accomplishment that I can face the college with a smile is majorly due to the time I would get to spend with them, directly or indirectly...

Rest about the faculty...Anatomy - 7.7
Physiology - 4.3
Bio-chem - 5

It's late and I want to sleep so everything else...later!
Adios!
- RJ

Here I am...

Adaab everyone...

The moment you enter the different amazing cities of India, you can't do but just stand and admire the vibe that's going through you. I remember the first time I stepped in Lucknow's beautifully crafted and amazingly architectural facade of LalBagh Railway Station. The split second at the first look told me that I was in a city where history is in the air.

The nawabs had grazed the land for more than a few hundred years. The sole proof can be found in the politeness of the people living here even today. The food is said to be amazing, though it's all non-veg so I won't be able to taste it but whatever veg food I have tasted is quiet incredible and absolutely worth being a vegetarian. The vivid sights of the streets are a delight to the eyes of a curious photographer. A visit to the archaeological site renowned as "Residency"(Ref: the pic^^) gave me a full throttle opportunity to capture a few moments concerning the freedom struggle and the zeitgeist of the colonial period. Some other sites like the Jama Masjid, the area near the Akbari darwaza are yet to be explored but from the outskirts, it seems like their photographs are a desideratum to my collection. There's a small river as well,known as "Gomati"(distributary of the Ganga) and it serves for a peaceful place to escape the noise of the city traffic. The streets and areas are named in the same way as it was a hundred years ago, hazratganj, thakurganj, chowk, balaganj etc. are pretty heavy names and I personally enjoy hearing them repeatedly.

About the modern reform, their are a few malls and numerous showrooms of mine and paji's likings.Hazratganj is the most expensive area in town with all the top brands situated in the same shops that existed years ago. It's a unique combination of the old and the new. The sahara mall of Sahara group called as Sahara Ganj is very well constructed with PVR screens and food court.

This is about all that I have been able to figure out about the Capital of Uttar Pradesh and hope that you enjoyed knowing about the city as well.
Signing off for now...RJ

PS : To all my friends, who are missing me, well, keep doing it coz I can't be leaving Lucknow for another 6 years...:P

Ramadhan is here!

Peace be upon you allll! 
Peace peace peace.

What is this peace and happiness we talk about?..Is it something we try to acheive through earning lots of money?...3 Storey Furnished Villa?...Lambhorghini in your backyard and a hayabusa in your bathtub?..

These materialistic things don't constitute peace at all. I will give you a demo  (3 idiots lol)...

If you help someone..Don't you feel happy?..Why?..He is benefitted not you..

If you save a cat from being crushed under merciless rough tires ..Why do you smile when you see the cat trying to overcome the fear and hugging you?..(Caution : Cats don't hug..Please don't try to hug a cat or you will end up real bad.)

What is it that encourages a person to die for a sake and give up his most loved thing..'long life'...The life which everyone wants to live..to the fullest.

If If If....What the if?!
This is what Real Peace is !..

I strayed big time..Coming back to the topic Ramdhaan...Ahh...Kya baat hai (What the talk is..:P) Just wow...I think if all months were ramadhaan then  i would not have any tension at all. I feel the most awesomest(?) in ramadhaan.

Well You can fast  in other months too..But they say it in Hindi ..Desi cheez desi hi rehti hai...(A thing belongs to a particular culture..then it should remain to it)..The fun of flying kites in India is nothing ..zero 'shunye'..as compared to here in Dubai..the city of chasing dreams. (where you can't fly kites)..So Ramadhaan has its own essence ..its own beauty.

I feel really light during Ramadhaan, Lol..Well i am already quite light..xD...But i mean it in a spiritual way.
Fasting actually really helps the addicts.When you fast you get to know what thing you are addicted to..The most benefitted i think are the people who drink cigarette  ..they leave it for more than half of a day...
Atleast. :|

I still remember when i was a kid ( I still act like one)...I used to fast for only one day, And i used to be so happy! As the time to break the fast approached more i used to be impatient to eat those tasty Pakoras..Fruit Chaat...Just awesome...Omnomnom..I am hungry now!

This time the day is quite long...from 4:30 to 7:00 will be the duration, and with such temperature..I hope the companies don't make their workers work like slaves.

Going today to give measurements for my Kandura..This is the first time i am gonna wear a kandura..and Gatra..for Eid...So excited! :D

Thats it from me now...ill be busy in ramadhaan ..but ill  post a diary on 15th day..which i am also writing on islam786 forum. Inshallah if i dont forget xD

O you who believe! Fasting is prescribed upon you as it was prescribed on those before you so that you may learn self-restraint [2:183]

Gaining Experience

I guess there's hardly anyone interested in reading these days are all busy or tired being so damn free like me?

Aaahhh Finally It's Friday! The day I wait for whole week every week not because its a holiday on Friday but its the only day in the week when I get up a minute or 2 before the alarm and wait for it to strike exactly at 4:19 and the second one at 4:20 just in case if I miss the first alarm but never so.
What's special is the Cricket matches we play on every Friday morning. Although we lost both our matches today but it was still heck a lot of fun as always, both tight games but we were let down by our fielders.
The rest of the week goes like burning in hell! I take my learning classes 2 hours daily as I'm taking license and thats it. Sleeping or watching movies the rest of the day....
Being fed up of all this I thought of going with dad to work as it could be useful to me as I'll be doing Civil Er. and my dad does the same thing....
So he took me to some offices the first day to introduce me with some of our contractors and owners of well known companies, it was a great experience as I was delighted and they all told me the same thing "Just work hard and with passion like your dad and we are there to support you". It really boosted my confidence and for a moment I thought lets do this Er. as soon as possible and then I'll take care of my dads job and let him take rest.
Well the next day or rather I must say night I had dinner with the managing director and owner of 22 companies all over gulf and one in India as well, He told me the same thing as well and shared some of his experiences and hardships that he have done to become an owner from project manager. It was a great feeling sitting next to such a good person and getting to learn some things too.
And then came the last day of the week I was fully charged up and ready to face the world so I got up early in the morning, got ready , took my tea with me to car as I was in hurry and left for Al Ain and Abu Dhabi.
First we went to Al Ain to the construction and filling site. All the sites were filling and contructions of petrol pumps around 4 of them.
I was monitoring the speed and routes on my mobile and was warning my dad occasionally about speed radars but then he turned to a site in the desert, When he turned I thought the site would be near but he kept on going and then I checked on map to make sure where we were and I saw there was no GPS! and hardly any mobile network on my mobile! but he still kept on going and after some 5-8 minutes I saw a shovel working behind the desert dune. For a moment I thought ohhk we are finally there but then the negative thoughts struck!
What would happen if we got stuck here?
Almost 10kms away from the road, completely surrounded by desert and no sign of life, no water to be seen too!
There were many of them and felt alas felt relief when we finally came back on road and were back home by 4pm. I came and straight away jumped onto my bed and slept like never before, Got up in morning almost 14 hours later and felt as if was hibernating for days. Took some pics too but all were same only desert to be seen..
Now feeling tired after match, had a cramp and twisted my wrist playing a weird shot, It's paining now...
Me off to have lunch and then sleeeeepp.........:)
Tata!

I'm done with it!

Well Well Well! look who's here!

It's meeee (I make a good smiley saying that)...:D
One must be wondering what I have been doing all these days such that even being free and with whole time in the tiny little world I couldn't write a single post not even a boring one (Like this), Actually nice question to start off feel free to answer guys even I figure it out!...And That "One" is myself...:D
Lets goo deep into it this is so far the longest and most enjoyable holidays of my life, So long that now I wonder when will it all come to an end and I can go somewhere and meet some friends or make some new ones....
Actually I was preparing for ILET (IELTS) test, Could have been good for an excuse if I wouldn't have written any post during my exams in 12th or 11th.. Huh! who did 11th!
So what brings me back here is that I want to make a Statement that I'm still not sure about my admission for B.tech. What am I gonna do and where am I gonna do I'm all messed up with it!...So please all those questioning me about this stop doing it and read this post....
I'm all confused, tensed and sad because I couldn't do it in India and it all hangs on my IELTS result, It's like my heart is in India mind in Canada and body burning in Dubai and to make my days worse Shariq puts up all that stuff about Microsoft rail simulator and not letting me try it out. I'm going to kick your aas with Rajdhani express...(Is it possible?)..:D
Btw those who have any hint of Masti pls report I don't find her anywhere!...Oops! HIM.. :P
So, the break is over and its time for another show, Yess! that's what xactly I do every day. Watching movies all day long. Atleast 2 everyday if not more.....
Although this post doesn't stand anywhere in terms of Band score (The only thing I learnt during my IELTS preparation course, how to mark others on band score) But it deserves atleast 5 which makes it better than the avg. writing score of U.A.E
I'm really good at it...:D
Bubye!...:)

Let the games...BEGIN!

Hi all...

NOTE: 'I started this thing as a comment to the previous post of Sharq so I want all the readers to first read the previous post by him and also the following comments...'

Hmm...Lets see...I want to agree with priyanka in some aspects but thn some things are preventing me as I am a micawber sort of person and if thre's no contradiction, life's boring!
Why not do both the things together...I mean what shariq says could be implemented to wht priyanka says...invest a million in gaming and earn 50...invest 48 in slums and 1 in gaming and one in the invester's pocket...not bad!
And BTW we are a progressive democracy and in trying to completely focus on our weaknesses, we must not forget our strengths...the london traffic is managed in banglore via satellites--now tht isn't a joke. The USB was invented by an indian...MSN is run by an Indian...and many many other facts will tell you how we feature globally.

And one more thing...which has just struck me...if Indian--so called the rich like Ambanis invest in this gaming sector...it's eventually gonna benefit the economy of the country, we shall have more and more employment of indians in this sector, more and more foreign investment here which leads to a growth in tourism sector ultimately to GDP growth and the treasury of the govt. which solves all the problems...
And furthermore, just like sharq says...the possibilities are endless...trucks, rickshaws, phatphatis, tempos, trains, jugads, and the locations are a bonus, you could have the smow in kashmir, greenery in punjab, desert in ahem...Rajasthan, people running into your simulator every hour in UP and beaches in goa and lots more...we could have aur own GTA vice city. Ohh ohh...bullock carts, donkey carts, camel carts, dhabas in the way, police asking for bribe and stuff...it could all be desi fun after all.

Well...If I had about a million dollars to invest here I surely would, right now!

And here's some facts I got hold of on the way...
--India is one of only three countries that makes supercomputers (the US and Japan are the other two).
--India is one of six countries that launches satellites.
--The Bombay stock exchange lists more than 6,600 companies. Only the NYSE has more.
--Eight Indian companies are listed on the NYSE; three on the NASDAQ.
--Nearly 49% of the high-tech startups in silicon Valley and Washington, D.C. are owned by Indians or Indian-Americans.
--India has the second largest community of software developers, after the U.S.
Someone said...The difference between a winner and a loser is that a winner knows his weaknesses and focuses on his strengths and a loser knows his strengths and focuses on his weaknesses.

PS : Apologies for being so late in writing this piece but i have my own limitations coz of travelling and then jet lagging and stuff...and again i can't promise of being on time the next time due to the same reason...

Bubye...RJ
