World Cup 2011


World cup 2011, well I read many technical articles about it all were like SO TRUE!!! And also at the end India so so so deserved this....so I am not going to write anything about that....

There were so many thoughts and so many discussions during the match,

I suddenly remembered that we had a chapter in our english literature about Kapil Dev that how he hit 3 sixes back to back....and India won the world cup that time.....

We were discussing all the sixes and all the centuries Sachin has ever hit, and how every time he hits a century he thanks his Father by looking up.....

At every ball that was played against India, heart skipped a bit....

How nothing seemed more appropriate than the NOT OUT decision given by third umpire for Dhoni....

How towards the last 5 overs, every time Malinga came to bowl, No one could stop chanting prayers.....

And at the end we finally won the WORLD CUP...well no word in the English Dictionary can describe that very feeling of all the Indians....

And then all the Indian players were hugging each other and celebrating, and I realized that even there were tears on my cheek too...and I felt stupid that I am crying on this?? And at that very moment I looked behind me, and the whole crowd behind me was Crying, we were all crying of the joy that We are so proud to be Indian!!!!!!!!!

I love to be an Indian.....I love you India.......

Proud to be an Indian!!!!

My "RESEARCH"


I joined VIT University as a "Research Scholar", well thats the name assigned to anyone who is doing Phd or Masters by research (my course)!! And believe me none of us are designated to be addressed as "scholars".

There are very funny names assigned here. People who do not stay at hostel are called "Day Scholars", does that mean that people who stay in hostels are stupid?? And how do you differentiate between these two categories? The ID card tag color is different...lol

Coming back to my research, well I first joined under a madam, a biggest mistake, take my words here, u never want a female guide or any female above the age of 35 as your mentor or boss!! She would be a professional version of a typical Indian nagging mother, and the worst part is that you cannot even answer back!!! My god she made my life a living hell for a period of 2 months!!!

So i changed my mentor or guide, as they say it in VIT and have joined under a very nice Sir.

but what about the research, well things go so slow here, that i come to lab everyday, do fb, read blogs, read e-papers, and finally wen i am bored to death, i play kiddo games on google chrome. haha they are fun!! remind me of times when i got my first desktop and used to play such games on computer, as didnt know any other use of it!! And at the end of the day I go to hostel as a "Research Scholar" and then watch movies... :)

Haha....life till now has been very funny for me....although i dont feel it because of the heat...as in i crib about the heat so much that nothing enjoying seems to be enjoyable!!

I hope my research scholar tag gets in use soon!!!
