You put the cap on, but there is always someone who leaves it open. The ink is always wet. A few words is all it takes to make a world of difference. Either way 'round. The tiny blue light from my USB hard drive blinks at me knowingly.

X : Why do you take painkillers?
Y:Coz I'm in pain.
X:(Smiles) Aren't we all? Aren't we all?

Half of the stuff that happen to us are brought on us by ourselves. There's a lot of difference between "You do your job and what'll be will be" and "What you do, matters.".

I have all the time in the world. But whatever you do there is something that remains. Always. If I did whatever I wanted to do in the past, then whatever I want to do now I would have put off. The cycle repeats and you run out of ink in the end.

Reality doesn't suck. You just didn't do enough to make it rock.

The past never comes back...

What would you do if somebody showed up in front of you and told you that there is no present? And that we are living in the past? And that everything is in the past? Spooky heh? But true.

The sun's light takes us eight minutes to reach us. We have light which was emitted eight minutes back. So we see the sun in a position it was eight minutes earlier. Light from stars far off takes millions of light years to reach us. So effectively light emitted when the universe was formed is reaching us now. Think about the delay in sound then.

Everything in space is in the past. So said Dr. Venkatavaradhan, a very nice guy I should say. We do not have anything called "present". So said Stephen Hawking in "Brief History Of time".

So in case you are talking someone far off and you say "I'm Alive", you might end up scaring him out of his senses, in case you end up dying the very next moment before the sound reaches him.

Space time rocks. They say "The past will never come back." I say "Does it even have to?"

M.E.

No. 126

I've realised..

• That stupid questions don't have answers. You just have to retaliate with another question -"WTF??"
• That my PQT teacher is too boring to exist. An extract from a conversation.

Me : She's just too boring to exist..
Hari:Her children will become geniuses.
Me:(Arched eyebrows)
Hari: She's so boring that they'll find everything else so interesting that they'll grasp stuff better.
Me:Not if they die out in the first two three years.

• That when I say I'm bored I'm looking at only my side of the argument. I should rephrase it to "We're bored".
• That politics is omnipresent and omni"suck"-ent
• That I can bend metal. I just bent a chair by sitting on it. I have a strong feelin git was already bent and weak from the last pounding. I was a scapegoat.
  
• That first impressions are not the best impressions. They are the ones you refuse to go against. So it is not my fault if you're a stubborn dunderhead.
• That food shared tastes good. When not shared it tastes good for a longer time. Hey I'm mortal.
• That Colleges are just schools with a fancy name. I had to write a letter for being absent half a day. And a friend got chucked out for talking.
• That mindless arguments make you feel good only if the people you argue with make you feel good.
• That there will be a perpetual pain in my ass. Sources may vary.
• That this may be boring to you. But hey I did not ask you to read this did I?
• That this is the first post I've numbered. Thank No.18 for that.

Now shoo...

Demons..

Fate sucks. It shows up at the worst possible time with the worst possible news which will affect the last person you ever want to hurt. It'll leave you no way out and when you do somehow make a way for yourself it will lead to yet another catacomb of supposed exits which lead you into deeper and darker territory till you eventually give up and let go.

Happiness and sorrow are two sides of the coin they say. It really sucks when one side of it is biased so that you get it all the time and when you do get the other side it hits you hard. And when nobody undersatnd it is the cherry on the cake isn't it? A very very nasty cake with a rotten cherry, yea....

When you trust someone, you know they'll be there for you. You have faith in them that they'll stick around. I wish I had been around. I wish I had atleast been a cause of what had happened. It feels like shit to be at the receiving end for something you never did and don't even know how it happened and wouldn't ever wish for it happen. Makes me wish it was me who had done it. Atleast I'll know what I'm feeling bad for.

Will I ever break free?

Rain drops keep falling on my heaaaaad...

Bringing in the quizmaster- Rs 35000
Entry fee per team- Rs 30
Stage setup(read lanjam)- Rs 1000+
The result- One priceless kick-ass quiz

For me, the thrill lies not in knowing the answer but when my guesses end up being right. I thought I would miss all the fun when I was entrusted the responsibility of 'Event co-ordinator' but trust me, I was as wrong as the one who said the earth is flat. What's better was I got my own private quiz backstage before it all started! Gopal Kidao rocks. Seriously.

"Kid" as his friends call him, is a very simple man. I went to pick him up at the railway station and was surprised to see a simple man with an unassuming smile walking up to me. Kid(if I may call him that) finds pleasure in small things. Right before his entry on the stage he requested us to play a soundtrack as a cue. Kid is an amazing quizmaster. You'll be almost done with giving the right answer and you'll never find out from his face whether you are on the right track. Kid has a very friendly air about himself. Kid is patient. Kid rocks.

From the quizmaster to the teams. Ah, the teams. Waat lavuly teams. Mindblowing answers which made me swear into the microphone (which thankfully was switched off). Answers which make you look up in awe because you never thought one could possibly know that answer. Ejjitement all around. Funny moments galore. A picture perfect "Thomas mason affair" hunched up beside the screen looking closer for hidden clues. Rival school teams( from S.B.O.A. Rock on da's and di's) going at each other just for the fun of it. Rival PSG teams going at each other as well. Teams 1 and 5 stole the show. Quizzing as it should be done.

The audience. Whatever questions you throw at them they have an answer waiting. Myriad people of various ages, gasping, sighing, cheering, whippee-ing at all the right times. Whatya sight to begold....

The scorers. Couldn't have gotten three better people. Nithya,vasuki and ranjith, were awesome company. The volunteers. Couldn't have done it without them.

Nutty and varun. I wish they weren't in fourth year.

Mouli anna. All in all alaguraja!

Quiz over. Late night drive to city tower. And food after 14 hours. Food had never tasted better. Pangs of guilt when I thought about niveditha's broken laptop screen. I wish I'd been around.

Intercollegiate quiz next day. Funny time at the prelims. Paired up with shiva for the first time. Wracked our brains for the craziest guesses possible, got 4 on 25 and still had the biggest grins as though we had aced through 'em. Boring prelims but mindblowing finals!

The missing key caper followed. A very tired and irritated-by-his-poor-memory nutty lying sprawled on the stage in the Ac hall. A very tired me, varun and hari accompanied him. Carefree hour. Comic relief on finding put what happened.

Root(kriya) had achieved what Kriya on the whole had failed to. Success beyond measure. The turnout was amazing. The questions, better. The answers we got- the best. My class guys rock!

Enter Jimmy wales. Excellent choice of words is all that I can say. Later that evening we were invited to a dinner with Jimmy Wales a the residency. I could appreciate the goodness of the man who at there answerng our questions as though nothing else was his priority. To quote a few of his words..

Question : Was wikipedia just an effort to spread knowledge to others, a sign of your altruism?"
Answer: (not the exact words but almost) I'm zero percent altruistic. I like having fun and I like being challenged intellectually.

Question: If Steve jobs came to you and offered 50 Million for wikipedia would you sell it?
Answer. Oh gosh no. If I were selling it, I would start the bid at 1 billion! Moreover I don't think Steve has that much money! (lol)

Question:What were your thoughts when you saw an article about you on Wikipedia?
Answer: In the first few months when wikipedia was founded there wasn't an article about me. People started asking questions and frankly any encyclopedia without an article about its founder is useless! (Casual and smooth!)

And when a video was screened from a system running windows and it so conveniently crashed "This is why I use linux. The transition from windows to linux is too slow in my opinion."

Excellent three days. Made me realise how much I loved eating and how much more I missed doing that. I traded a cozy sleep in my room for a night at a friend's place where we all had to stay awake the whole night thanks to the mosquitoes who were rather too upbeat that night. Night out on the terrace gazing up at the stars. Life hain to aisi??

Nice long talks with Hari and Erin. There was a point when i thought I would not have time for blissful talks, sitting on chairs in all the ways they are not meant to be sit on. I'm glad I was wrong.

P.s : I love rain.
