Well for now, exams are here. I guess, the statement is self-explanatory without any need of some articulate elaboration on that. There was a Three Thinkers presentation yesterday which I'm very happy about because there was no messing with my Flash. All the presentations have been very educative, not in the sense of informative, but reminding me on how life has changed from "The Alien and Me" school essays to more serious forethoughts, afterthoughts, thoughts all about tranformations of societal beliefs, history, philosophy, everything synonymous and antonymous, the way people start thinking about religious, scientific, politicial issues. It's about the wide spectrum of things that humans tend to be concerned about as they age. I was very lucky to find a group, specially when the presentation was imminent, thanks to Sudhir and Varun for letting me in. Shiv thinks I've made his life miserable, but I believe it was rightful to own myself about the attendance at lectures. Rajeev had a tough time. He did nothing but stuttering. And again Akshat amazes me by his ability to speak. I'm very sad I did not get a chance to speak. No one can be put to blame in this matter though.
This Reliance India Mobile pisses me off. I've every clarification made to the service centre that my bills are paid, the fellows at the Web World have even handed me the receipt but these fellows refuse to activate my outgoing service. Firstly it should never have been annulled. That reminds me about the humor of the situation about this tiff between the junior Ambanis. For the uninitiated, I'm from the Dhirubhai Ambani Institute of Information and Communication Technology. Some students and friends of mine here have been attending phone calls where callers seem to be worried about the future of our institute. I do not think at all that it could be a matter of concern to us. All the furore is noteworthy though. It started of with the impression of a wild rumor, then Mukesh declares it's only in their private domain, as usual the media adds spark to the matter as a result of which numbers at stock exchanges fell and the whole story came out. Mrs.Dhirubhai refuses to intervene. Anil has remained silent all the time hoping that people would surely appreciate his silence. Mukesh has been acting a little weird. There have been ads in major newspapers asserting his bossmanship. Thank god, he did not start sending short messages to every Reliance mobile user to indicate the same. I do not really know but some say Anil has every right to question Mukesh for there is no will regarding the ownership. Dad says Anil might be partially responsible for the whole issue. The news is that Anil has been developing political relations which Mukesh thinks is not a good idea and may not prove fruitful with the major party where Anil has been involved being Samajwadi (anti-Congress ?). There's a notion that a businessman of such stratum must return home after his daily work instead of all these things. Looks like Anil has also agreed to some fuel supply for which a really long pipeline project could start in Uttar Pradesh which might not fetch some countable profits. Media has been portraying this issue with its regular way of exciting people. I hate it when newspapers accuse saying "Such and such a celebrity is angry with the media for spreading such and such rumors which have tainted their reputation". Shameless are those reporters who pretend to be innocuous and not the part of the media they are presently talking about.
My UCD project is still stagnant, it made no real progress, but I'm hopeful of completing within three days after the exams if Akshat is going to lend a hand. After that is the vacation, yeah with every day being a busman's holiday. Ironies of life. I have half my internship left to complete this December. Some of my old friends, whom I've re-established a contact with, are planning to organize meets. We might pay a visit to our school. Some of us might even go to Mega Study Circle, the place where I've had my coaching for the IIT-JEE examination. I think Shiva will be very angry with me for the most lazy attempts I've made to be in touch with him. I even forgot to wish him on his birthday. I mean it's not really a big sentimental deal but with friends so intimate it does make a difference ocasssionally. This vacation is going to keep me completely busy.
I've to look forward to either CAT or GRE coaching next semester. I'm also planning to take a separate room with Raj and Yashwant outside this hostel. I'm sick of this. But who knows ? It's still a tentative decision, always subject to change. Just like it goes, I hope I'll do well in my next semester. There has always been inspiration but not sufficient action. Inspiration and irony remind me of the last time when I did half my internship at Gachibowli. Sometimes life plays this game of dice with expertize. Last May everyday I used to pass through two important places twice everyday during journey. One of them is IIIT,Gachibowli which used to remind me of Tejo, I was always expecting him but never met him. The other one is Whisper Valley at which I used to smile with thoughts reminiscent of my old days and Divya. I always used to think Ruchir was fooling around trying to convince me about the existence of a place called Whisper Valley in Hyderabad, to my surprise every bit of what he said was true. The first time I faced the corroboration I was like preparing myself to jump out of the bus to reaffirm it.
Wait a minute, did I say inspiration and irony ?? I must confess that I'm hugely inspired by few people. Dad is the first on my positive list.It's not Einsteins and Newtons that really ignite in me a hope to succeed. Right now my idols are Bharat, my classmate at the university for his never ending and proper shots at any task given to him. Then comes Divya. Reasons ?? Lots of them. Everytime I read her blog, know more about her I say "She simply rocks. She's the best". I could write pages about her now, I'm not trying to flatter anyone, I'm honest as the salt of the earth. Did I deviate ? Back to the irony stuff.
Exactly when I came back to the institute after the internship I got their contacts from Orkut. Why oh why did I not get to know about the website just a month before ? These are people I've been longing to meet. To be optimistic I should be happy saying "Better late than never". This December in process of our meets, I'm going to meet Tejo for sure. I shall not speak about the second person though, I cannot allow myself to do that presently. AM to PM transition has taken place. Exams... I have to run.
