Posted by EccEntrIcIty pErsOnIfIEd in My Diary.4 comments
Well after the minors WE (I, Pranz, Arihant n Himanshu) had planned to celebrate yet another disastrous performances of ours in the minors knowing what we’ve done in the exams but I think the luck’s not with us….
Firstly some a55hole advised us to go and watch the movie “FIGHT CLUB” calling it a good action movie and 2 a55holes of us obviously including me even went to see the movie! The movie sucks big time man….. I mean I almost cried when the stupidity of all the actors overwhelmed me !
Then that same a55hole who had advised us earlier to go for “FIGHT CLUB” again showered his magical words of wisdom this time his idea was “DINNER AT PACIFIC MALL’S FOOD COURT”. As none of us had been to the Pacific mall we decieded to give a shot to his idea but the shot missed the target again! We all had CREDIT/DEBIT CARDS with us and very less cash cuz usually in all the malls payment by cards is accepted but here in the PACIFIC MALL’s Food Court they had there own way ! They took cash and made a temperory debit card to purchase the food and W-A-T-E-R…. no no dont look surprised…. its true they actually sold WATER! At the end of the day we could’nt find the bloddy a55hole to beat the shit outta him for his bright ideas and came back all literally robbed!

“I’m going fishing.”
Really means… “I’m going to drink myself dangerously stupid and stand by a stream with a stick in my hand, while the fish swim by in complete safety.”
“It’s a guy thing.”
Really means…. “There is no rational thought pattern connected with it, and you have no chance at all of making it logical.”
“Can I help with dinner?”
Really means… “Why isn’t it already on the table?”
“Uh huh,” “Sure, honey,” or “Yes, dear.”
Really means… Absolutely nothing. It’s a conditioned response.
“It would take too long to explain.”
Really means… “I have no idea how it works.”
“I’m getting more exercise lately.”
Really means… “The batteries in the remote are dead.”
“We’re going to be late.”
Really means… “Now I have a legitimate excuse to drive like a maniac.”
“Take a break, honey, you’re working too hard.”
Really means….”I can’t hear the game over the vacuum cleaner.”
“That’s interesting, dear.”
Really means… “Are you still talking?”
“Honey, we don’t need material things to prove our love.”
Really means… “I forgot our anniversary again.”
“That’s women’s work.”
Really means… “It’s difficult, dirty, and thankless.”
“You know how bad my memory is.”
Really means… “I remember the theme song to ‘F Troop’, the address of the first girl I ever kissed and the Vehicle Identification Numbers of every car I’ve ever owned, but I forgot your birthday.”
“Oh, don’t fuss. I just cut myself, it’s no big deal.”
Really means… “I have severed a limb, but will bleed to death before I admit I’m hurt.”
“I do help around the house.”
Really means… “I once put a dirty towel in the laundry basket.”
“Hey, I’ve got my reasons for what I’m doing.”
Really means… “I sure hope I think of some reasons pretty soon.”
“I can’t find it.”
Really means… “It didn’t fall into my outstretched hands, so I’m completely clueless.”
“What did I do this time?”
Really means… “What did you catch me doing?”
“I heard you.”
Really means… “I haven’t the foggiest clue what you just said, and I’m hoping desperately that I can fake it well enough so that you don’t spend the next days yelling at me.”
“You look terrific.”
Really means… “Oh, God, please don’t try on one more outfit. I’m starving.”
“I missed you.”
Really means… “I can’t find my sock drawer, the kids are hungry and we are out of toilet paper.”
“I’m not lost. I know exactly where we are.”
Really means… “I’m lost. I have no idea where we are, and no one will ever see us alive again.”
“I don’t need to read the instructions.”
Really means… “I am perfectly capable of screwing it up without printed help.”

Anyone thinking of leaving their jobs. Well this is the perfect resignation letter.
The name is good, the brand is big
But the work I do is that of a pig
The work or the brand; what is my way?
I don’t know if I should stay.
To work, they have set their own way
Nobody will care to hear what I say
My will be NULL, they wont change their way
I don’t know if I should stay.
The project is in a critical stage
But to do good work, this is the age
This dilemma is killing me day by day
I don’t know if I should stay.
The money is good, the place is great
But the development is at a very small rate
Should i go for the work, or wait for pay
I don’t know if i should stay. !
The managers don’t know what they talk
The team doesn’t know where they walk
That’s a bad situation, what say?
I don’t know if I should stay.
I can go to any other place
But what if I get the same disgrace
I can’t keep switching day by day
I don’t know if I should stay.
The -ves are more, the +ves are less
Then why have this unnecessary mess
No more will I walk their way,
It’s all done, I won’t stay.
Engineers v/s Managers February 2, 2006

A woman in a hot air balloon realized she was lost. She reduced altitude and spotted a man below. She descended a bit more and shouted “Excuse me,can you help? I promised a friend I would meet him an hour ago, but I don’t know where I am.
The man below replied “You are in a hot air balloon, hovering approximately 30 feet above the ground. You are between 40 and 41 degrees north latitude and between 59 and 60 degrees west longitude.”
“You must be an engineer” said the balloonist.
“I am” he replied. “How did you know?”.
“Well,” answered the balloonist, “Everything you told me is technically correct, but I have no idea what to make of your information, and the fact is, I am still lost. Frankly, you’ve not been much help so far.”
The man responded, “You must be in management.”
“I am” she replied, “But how did you know?”
“Well,” said the man, “You don’t know where you are, or where you are going. You have risen to where you are due to a large quantity of hot air. You made a promise, which you have no idea how to keep, and you expect people beneath you to solve your problems. The fact is, you are in exactly the same position you were in before we met, but now, somehow, it’s my fault.”
It’s cool to be patriotic: GenNow February 2, 2006

They are patriots but not jingoists.
They love India, but will not defend its mistakes globally. They don’t mind making the most of a good opportunity abroad but will not settle down there.
Welcome to the world of India’s MTV generation.
The 20-somethings and also less who don’t carry the burden of history. The young and restless for whom money and career may come first but patriotism too figures high in the scheme of things.
What’s more, with almost 555 million in the under-25 age group, they are the ones who redefine India as the Young Republic.
Yet, they have managed to come out of the shadows of Midnight’s Children and plan to chart a whole new course for the nation. Unscarred by the past, they look to the future with stars in their eyes.
Interestingly, while moving ahead, the young Indians have not given up on India. They have managed to blend die-hard patriotism with turn-of-the-century globalism.
Perhaps, that’s why even after 58 years, August 15 is not just another holiday in the calendar; they feel strongly about it. Desh bhakti for them means taking pride in the country and going the extra mile whenever the opportunity arises.
As 23-year-old Dhruv Rakha says: It’s not just another day for me. I’m emotional about I-Day, it gives me my identity as an Indian. After all, India gained independence that day. For Dhruv, a call-centre executive, August 15 means a hard day’s work with a 10-hour shift, while July 4 (American Independence Day) is a holiday. On July 4, we spend the day sleeping but last year I took off on August 15 just to fly kites.
The day is special even for those who don’t have to work. For Chiteswari Anand, 18, of Hindu College I-Day means freedom and happiness. Meenakshi Bansal, a secondyear Hindu College student, says for years it’s been a ritual in her family to celebrate the day together.
And yes, they are all proud of their primary identity. Being a Bengali, Bihari or Punjabi is secondary; being Indian comes first. And desh-bhakti is a 24×7 mantra for most.
It’s an honour to be born in this country.
