Nikki: Hum ko mile 12 ghante bhi nahin hue aur tum humure future ke bare me soch rahe ho ?
Sam: Main to peechle bara ghante se hi humure future ke bare me soch raha hoon ! Aur tum ?
Nikki: Sabkuchh batane ki zaroorat nahin hota *lips tremble*
Sam: *grins* (but gets a boner, secretly)
Sam: Bag mein kya hai ?
Gulshan: Mauka. Utha sako to utha lo. (Now that’s called raw machismo)
Sam : Ek bag ke liye 50 million dollars kuchh zyada nahin hai ?
Gulshan: Bag mera tha to kimat bhi main tyar karunga ! (Lesson in Valuation)
Mona: Mera sapna hai ek oceanography institute, marine life ko protect karne ke liye.
Sagar: Is janam me wo sapna hi rahega. Main machhli pakadta rahunga, tum pakate rehna…. (har har har)
Sagar: Koi aadmi sirf tab andhere mein baithta hai, jab wo isqh mein hota hai ya phir pareshan ho.
Sam: Who ek aur karan bhi andhere mein baithta haijab roshni chala jaye. (makes perfect logocal sense but also makes me laugh out loud)
Arav: I always have two of everything heh heh heh.
Mona: That’s Arav for you, he has two of everything! (makes me ROFL)
Then, there were lot of interrogative dialogues using the word ‘Sawal’ which teaches a sure shot way to compose the sharpest comeback lines. I am sure this can be effectively used in office and homes. Allow me to exemplify-
Boss: Maine jo kam bola tha wo tumne kiya ?
Me: Sawal ye nahin hai ki kam maine kiya ki nahin. Sawal ye hai kam hua ki nahin.
Then at home,
Wife: Tumko aadha kilo kanda lane ke liye bola tha, laya ?
Me: Sawal ye nahin hai ki main kanda laya ki nahin, sawal ye hai ki tumko kanda nahin mili to kya honewala hai.

Instant Karma in Bay Area
I would say these guys are giving us some of the worst Indian events. They throw attitude like anything and just because there is no competition at this moment, they think people have to put up with their shit. I can see they are going down...sorry Instant Karma and please stop getting drunk 18 year old girls to boss people around in your stupid events.

love aaj kal
I have to say Imtiaz Ali knows how to use the whole Delhi feel or Punjabi feel in his movies. The scene which depicts Saif travelling to Calcutta just to see her is wonderful. Overall a good movie experience.

IPhone post
This is my first iPhone post. Mood is complex and the uncertainities within are overpowering. Somani and I once discussed how much we both love secretary jobs, I think I would use this passion when I start sending out toubebas tshirts in a couple of weeks.

happiness
I wish I was a little more intelligent and had the ability to think deeper. My habbit of superficial understanding of everything helped me crack exams and get great scores but failed me to understand life and what I want from it.
That will be all.
That will be all.

My IISc Day Part3
Later that afternoon, I met with Prof. Dwarkadasa again where he told me that I have been assigned to work with him during the summers. I was honest and upfront to tell him that I am not interested in Physical Metallurgy and would like to carry out my research on electronic materials. He was a very kind natured gentleman and offered his full support to me. Later that night I went to my dorm room and met my roommate Hrithvick, I do not remember his last name. Hrithvick was returning to IIsc for the second time and was carrying out research on genes and biology stuff. The moment we met, I was intrigued and impressed by his intelligence and confidence. On the contrary, he appeared to have figured me inside out. Within half an hour, he bluntly asked me that if I wanted to go to USA after your bachelors, to which I shamelessly said "yes".
Hrithvick smirked and probably crossed my name from his books completely. Over the summers, we rarely spoke or met as we were both busy carrying out research and were rarely in our room. Going back to that dilemmna I was in Prof. ESD next day told me that he had spoken with the registrar and if I am able to find a new advisor within a week to ten days, he would be okay otherwise, I would have to work with him to qualify for the Rs 2500/- stipend.

I have a strong feeling
That I am meant to do something really big. I am hoping I discover that soon.
That will be all and I end on this note.

Youth of India
I think Indian youth should learn at least one martial art. With everything that has happened in the last three-four years to Indians outside India, we should hit back!!.
Personally I plan to learn the sikh martial art of Gatka this summers.

IISc Days Part II
I reached Bangalore around 7pm and I clearly remember as I walking on the platform it felt as if the ground below was shaking. Anyhow, I managed to get an auto rickshaw an reached the IISc campus, clueless as to where I was going to spend the night. After talking to many people and dragging my big green VIP suitcase all over the campus, I met a warden who was kind enough to give me a temporary room for the night.
The room was huge, old and scary but I slept with the lights on. Next morning I attended a reception where I met the other 28 young fellows who were selected from all over India. They were all nice and warm people and to my bad luck, no girl worth my time was there. As I was used to such environments, I overcame this first disappointment with great ease and later that morning went to the Department of Metallurgy to meet my alloted Faculty member. I saw that Prof. ESD was mentioned in front of my name and I felt this was my chance to develop new solar cells. I reached Prof. ESD's office and noticed three other students in his office. I felt I was special so will talk to him once he is done with these other kids. But Prof. ESD immediately said, "Gurjeev, I have been expecting you, come on in"..I moved closer to the table..."7012 Aluminum Alloy would be your alloy to be used in NAL's unmanned aircrafts". Those words, I tell you....shattered me and they still echo in my head because those words were repeated in a slightly different form, again in Michigan. But that is a different story altogether.
Overconfident and loud mouthed which is not my natural style, I replied back "There is some error, I am here to work on solar cell materials". Prof. ESD, smiled at me and said "Come back in 30 minutes and we can talk more". I left his office totally shaken and shattered as if it was the end of the world. But when I look back, I have realized that life's challenges come in various forms and most of the times we just can't figure out things, can we?

Son Of A Sardar
More than a sense of fulfilment and pride, a sense of urgency to stand up and act surrounds me.

long time
Do not have time to write blogs these days, facebook updates are way too convenient. But there are still somethings such as writing Heidi Klum is hot that I can only do on this blog. I think with Facebook having office colleagues and family, my blog gives me the privacy I seek (oxymoron ?).
That will be all for now

My IISc days-Part 1
Sometimes you get these early morning dreams down the memory lane and yesterday morning I experienced such memories from my IISc days. I had spent two months during the summer of 2000 at IISc Bangalore as part of Young Engineering Fellows. In those two months, I learned so much about myself, my passions and my friends that I can write a book on what went inside my head.
The whole Bangalore trip started off on a setback note. My parents were really proud of the fact that I got selected for this fellowship but my brother who is very passionate about booking tickets forgot to check that my train was not going to take 24 hours from Kota but rather 48 hours to reach Bangalore. We learned this only after reaching the station and I still remember the concerned face of my mother. But I assured her that I would be fine and what started after that was probably the longest journey of my life. I bought my first Filmfare at Nagda junction and read it twice word to word during the trip. I learned the importance of having a good book (not Filmfare level) in your handbag for such long trips. I also learned that the electric engine shiffts to a diesel engine at Kazipet Junction which serves the world's best Mango juice. Just like at Kajrat people go crazy about the wada-pav, people go crazy at Kazipet to drink some of these fruit juices.
Having successfully completed around 28 hours on the train, by the next day I felt much better, less bored and came down from my side upper berth. I slept that night feeling strangely confused and wondered why I was going to Bangalore for two months?, when I could spend that time in Kota/Delhi chilling with family
