A Thank You Message

Sometimes certain actions by people can make you feel very special. It is really nice to be reassured that somebody [Read: somebody who does not normally express his emotions frequently] actually takes you and what you say seriously or spends time thinking about what you would appreciate or does something for you in spite of certain difficulties. It's not that affection for a person depends on what he does for you but the fact that it gives you a pleasant feeling cannot be ignored. And moreover you realize all over again how important you are to the person.

I find it very difficult to say thank you to my parents. Somehow it seems very formal. An enthusiastic smile is all they get. But it's different in writing. So here's a formal thank you to baba for what he did. Thank you baba! I loved the surprise!



P.S.: And I just realized that I have an urge to write before my Mechanical Science exams. I wonder why...

Frustrated Thoughts

Why is it that Nabla ma'am always asks me what she had taught last week? I never seem to know anything about what she teaches and then she looks at me as if I were some alien from Neptune sitting in a class of humans... Yes, I do admit that I yawn every two seconds in her class but I do not fall asleep like the others who she thinks are interested in her class. Staying awake is quite an acheivement on my part. I'm in grave need of acting lessons!

Photos!

Since I don't feel like writing anything at all at the moment and I'm being forced to post something by LD here are some pictures taken by me. I'm very fond of abstract photos but very bad at capturing them. So adept photographers please forgive the new kid on the block.



Cycling through smoke?



eeeeeeeeee


A city of diversities- My city



This was taken during the immersion of Durga thakur last year. Hoping this year pujo will be as much fun as it was last year.

Ejjucation!

Have you ever felt that a certain person needs education even though you knew that this very person is a M.A., M.Sc. or PhD.? Does a clean mark sheet always prove that the person is truly educated? What is education? Is it only stuff that we learn so that we can pass our exams and get a good job? Is that the sole objective of education?

It must be so, it seems. Why else do I find so many people who refuse to be a part of the present? Who think that what they have learnt was and is the best. Who have forgotten that life moves on. Who cannot or will not adapt to the changing times. Who believe that education is just a term given to learning printed words in a text book. Who believe that education is limited to student life. Who believe in living in the past...

It must be so...



P.S.: This blog is where I'll be giving vent to my pent up frustrations... So anybody who wishes to read through my ramblings will have to be exceptionally determined to do so.

Not an apt first post. But a post nevertheless! Ah, Well...
