Something I have always wanted to do...RUN

OK, So for the next few months I will be rambling about how I trained for my first 5K run, and changed from a literal no-runner( in every sense! I pant and run out of breath) to a marathon runner..

Stay tuned..

Feb 23rd: Practice Session 1! 

Life..Life and Life again

God,the title itself defines the confused ME!!Why is it ME always??A peak into the real ME ......

Filled with dreams and a bunch of thoughts and views and judgements about almost everything in this world..Wants to lead my life the fun filled way with people around me..and the list goes on..In front of the world,am the girl brimming with confidence.. at least till my stint in Bangalore,I have always enjoyed life as I had everything I ever wanted to..But now,the real life starts :)

Yeah,I have this person in my life who is just like my parents.So Bangalore is a second home to me,thanks to X.Yes,X is my life here or rather defines my life here.Never in my life has anyone given me so much attention,so much of time,value and heeded all my sh** talks and pampered me.I am re-living my childhood in a way.And today,Jan 21st I again have to re-look at my actions.For all X is to me,I have been the lesser extent of exact opposite.Now what do I Do??

My amma,she calls me everyday saying you did not call me,you did not do this,you did not do that and so on.Probably yes,I dont find time for my parents and dear ones.Friends too have that opinion.Totally immersed in my fantasy world,ain't I??

Work-I feel lots to do and think I am working my a** off.But in reality,I could have just flew through all that and instead am going like a typical KSRTC bus!!God again..Lack of planning and disobeying of the 2 golden rules-smile and silence!!

Enough of my traumas :( :( :) :)..I realised!I realised !So,that is what matters..Buck up,get going :).I love you X,amma,appa,my beautiful friends and work..I will live up to all your expectations and wishes!!Signing off for now :)

A Pragmatic Perspective

Since am in one of my realisations mood and not an active blogger,I decided just now to pour out what I feel.My life has gone so much serious with lots to be done is such a short span.Ok,3 weeks and I have an exam that is going to decide my fate and why do I get this feeling that am still whiling away my time!:(.Ok,so blogger god(yeah I believe there is one),today,Jan 24th at 8.30 am going to see my life the "pragmatic and serious" way.Let's see what turns out in the one week tentative period ahead of me:).Good luck to me!!

emote!

It pulls me this way and that way
Rips me and tears me through
Blinded by my tears and deafened by my own heartbeats
I move on...I move on..
In the hope for a better tomorrow
Love none dearly,wised ones say
And I chose to defy them as always
Between my life and my love..
I stand still...
In the hope for a better tomorrow...

Education vs awareness

Education is expected to develop a person,increase his knowledge,awareness and give him a broader perspective of life.In short education helps to improve ones personality.But how far does it actually help an individual?

Women have always been prey to various atrocities from ancient times.The rape cases and molestations continue even in the present scenario.Goa,the state which contributes a lions share towards tourism revenue is highly unsafe for the tourists.The other states are not far behind.Even the chilren are not spared.A seven year old was raped in the capital two weeks back.Sadly,the perpetrators of most of these crimes are educated.The respect element is totally lacking in the "educated" youth of incredible or shining India.The patriarchal and conservative thoughts are still entrenched in the minds of most of the educated people.In this context,I feel education has contributed little towards improving the horizon of thoughts of people.

The world is moving towards a power crisis.Energy shortage is a serious threat."Switch off the lights and fans when not in use".This is a commonly encountered phrase.But how many of us actually do it??

Kerala is one state that boasts of its literecy rate(am talking about the literacy beyond the signing of names).Yet the so called pseudo god-men,the latest in the news find it a very favourable destination.So if education actually makes you more aware,why do these people find it so easy to make a living in this state??

The suicide rate and honour killings continue to show a rising trend despite the various measures taken by the government.So I feel we have reached a position where lack of education cannot be blamed for what is happening around us.(The recent gujjar agitation included,which became this worse only due to BJPs renege )It is the mindset,the thoughts of the people that needs a change,which has a long way to go....
