SSK Chronicles

Everything here is straight from my heart : nuthin more nuthin less. This is my place to pour out the Emotions smouldering within me...

hmm I think of myself as paradoxical : A non vegetarian who doesnt like to kill or hurt other living things, A ceaseless romantic who sometimes thinks that relationships are just not worth gettin into since someone eventually gets hurt, A dreamer who ends up being more realistic, A pessimist who hides his optimism in pessimism & finally just another normal human being.

The caped crusader syndrome ... tadadadat tadaaaaannnn

Hmm there were many a time that I wanted to be a saviour of my friends. I dunno why i get that feeling. I imagine that some terrible tragedy is about to happen and I'm the hero who saves all the people.
Is this a manifestation of an inner soul that is crying out for attention .. i dunno .

Do other people also think of such things .. i mean it does seem really pathetic to imagine being some kinda saviour right ..

Think bout what I would do if I'm walking on a dark night with a girl and suddenly some guy shows a knife and asks for our money .
Hmm in all probability i wud just handover the money and scram outta there with my friend.But if the guy had tried to molest her wud i have the courage to give up my life for that ???
It certainly seems the most noble thing to do : dying while tryin to protect a friend !!
I somehow think a burst of adrenalin wud shock me into action and probably i wud get myself killed as i certainly am not a strong guy .. but hopefully by that time my friend shud run the hell outta there and even more hopefully she shud be sensible enuff to call for help ... as i might still have a chance of survival ;)
I certainly think there is a hero amongst all of us and something will awaken it ...
be it a fight to save our environment or a fight to save our own sorry asses ..

Deja vu

hmm from the little French i know deja vu means already seen, this term became well known in India after Neo says it in Matrix.
Anyways when I went to Loyola college to write my CAT i had this feeling of deja vu. This is my 3rd and last attempt at CAT. The one thought that struck me when i saw the crowd was "Like moths attracted to a light" . Every year the CAT aspirants increase exponentially.

God knows where so many managers are going to find work.

Harry potter 4 the movie

Well for a Potter fan ( not a potter fanatic) this movie was good.
But the series has certainly become darker.
The actors certainly look old... Now who wud believe that the gorilla acting as Ron is only 14 ????

But at the same time we the viewers have become very comfortable with these actors so i really hope the producers make the remaining 2 films ASAP like LOTR was made, otherwise they may have to change the actors and we would not like the change.

But anyway as the whole series will become more and more serious the movies may not be advisable to the children. I certainly would see all the movies of course.

I don't remember too much but wasn't the principal of beauxbottoms or whatever: a fat giant, but the movie has a thin tall woman as her.

HP4 the movie was no way as descriptive as the book, and to think that HP4 is much smaller than HP5, So the movie HP5 is gonna be an abridged version. This movie itself moved very fast ... the dragon fights were short , the Mad Moody sub plot was also very short and the explanation for the ministers death was also not given ... hmm i dunno how it would be for a HP fanatic to see this movie :)
Anyway the dark lord has returned and there shall be no peace amongst the HP fans until we see the rest of series on video too ;-)

procrastinator

It's one of those periods again...
I have made myself believe that i shud spend every bit of my time writing my essays for the B schools, but till now i have been procrastinating big time.
That's why i had stop the very rare blogin too.
i dunno what i will be doin ... i have finally been released from my project in which i have been for over 2 years. It's almost like my second family i made so many friends , so many interesting people.
I have observed so many of them and each one of them is truly an amazing character ...

Now i have been put into a new project in Informatica ..i dunno what i shud look forward to.

I'm still not make any great advances in deciding my future ...

more on all this will follow when i begin feelin as pathetic as i feel now .
