Sad thoughts.

21st June was the final of the ICC T20 world cup....and I being a cricket fanatic (i can proudly say that i am 1 of the few girls who likes cricket because of cricket and not because of the cricketers :)...though i do like a few of them:D) was definitely watching it!

Sri Lanka v/s Pakistan....i was a little disappointed that India didnt make it to the finals..but then they didnt play that good enough so they didnt deserve it!I was rooting for Sri Lanka..nothing against Pakistan....but SL has 1 of my Fav players..kumar Sangakarra..so I was on sri lanka's side...and as usual...the team that I support never manages to win!!:(....(99% of the times that happens)



Initially I was a bit disappointed...but then I switched on a NEWS channel where they showed videos of Pakistani fans celebrating...doing the nagin dance and all.

It brought a big smile on my face. Yes,SL lost...but there was something more important that happened..the ppl of Pakistan got something to celebrate.The past few weeks must hav been difficult for ppl there because of all the tension going on over there..we hear of bomb blasts every day...and in such times...a world cup must be like being on the top of the world!!So..in all I was happy!


But yesterday i read an article in the newspaper in which Shahid Afridi said that the Indians were not happy playing against us..that really pissed me off!

Dude!!U've won a World cup...you are being worshipped as a hero in your country...why do you have to say all these things and spoil the happy atmosphere around???C'mon I dnt think India will ever do that...thats my personal opnion of course!but a strong belief that they wont do that..If u are sulking at a moment when you should be dancing with joy...and cherishing every moment..then you've got a serious problem Mr.!

Saw on the news just now..Michael Jackson no more! thats a really sad news that came up today....but what was more sad was the way people were talking about him in a negative way.
Sure...he has had a lot of controversies....but you can't deny THE fact that he was for sure the King of Pop!His songs were a craze...and his dance moves...wow!! (I tried to do the moon walk once...almost sprained my leg...and plus had all my folks laughing their heart out!)


I was taught this as a child..that when someone passes away..you shudnt be talking bad abt him no matter how many bad things he might hav done..so it did disappoint me!!
I'm sure being a celeb in hollywood must not be easy at all...the cameras following you every where...and their bad sides will come up to but you cant ignore their talent...



Like for eg. Britney Spears...her life is overflowing with controversies!!!But you cant deny the fact that shes one of the best popstars ever!!But if u curse or talk about some one like Lindsay Lohan..Of course i wont blame u then..the girls got no talent(atleast she hasnt shwn any till date) and only controversies in her life!!


I so hope that ppl start taking out positives out of other ppl lives and talk about it and not the negative ones.

...

One phone call...and it changes your life track completely!!!
No..it wasn't from God :D (ppl who've read 1 night @ the call center will probably understand the joke intended)

Actually I was quite confused about what to do after my engineering...its my final year,so its high time..i should start thinking about it..
So I called up a career guidance counsellor of jaan-pehchaan :D
My first question was obviously about placements!!What else does a "budding" engineer think about?? I asked him about the current placement scenario.He said its really bad..hardly any placements happening now...That is something i didnt want to hear at all!!But i guess thats the truth...have to live with it :(
That means I have to study further and make myself more "valueable". The options I had: MS ,ME and MBA.I dont want to do MS or ME...so that leaves me with MBA!!
A year back from now I never ever gave even a small thought to doing MBA.. All I thought about was how I have to work for placements..get a good job and then manage it..and now here I am looking for a good class for CAT training . I know that I have to bell the CAT in 2010 for sure!
Well...It did affect my plans for vacations though..Now my driving license will have to wait for a while and so will the guitar maybe..Btw I completed cleaning my room..*phew*
And now along with my BE I have an MBA to do!! :) or :( (really don't know)

Finally....Its here!!!

Finally,its here!!!! Its VACATION TIME!!!! Yippeee!!! Feels so good to have a break after such a hectic schedule...that too such a long break....42 days!!! mamma mia!!
The most precious 42 days because after that my final year starts...BE....and its not gonna be a cakewalk for sure.I struggled a lot in coping up with the 6th semester..so a bit nervous about the 7th & 8th.So I hope they are 42 days of fun and I hope to make the most out of it.
Well,I've planned a TO-DO list for this vacation and i hope i can do it!! :D
Here's my list:::>

#1.. Get my driver's license:::>
I was never too keen to learn driving.Mumbai's traffic scares me like anything!
But its always important to know something which can help you in case of any emergency.So i've decided to learn driving! I hope it shooos away my fear of driving a car in mumbai's traffic..hehe..

#2.. Complete reading the Twilight series:::>

Okay...I've heard enough about Twilight!!so now...I want to read it :D..
The best part is that i have the whole series at home.my sis has already completed reading it.She says its for the hopelessly romantic ones....hmm..okay...its definitely for me then!!! :D

#3.. Clean up my room!!! :::>
My room is a total mess! And believe me its not just a 1 or 2 day job to complete cleaning it!Its even scarier than the mumbai traffic! **OK..exaggerated....nothing can be worse than mumbai traffic** All my books lying here and there..some on the bed...another mountain sort of heap on my study table..and some even on the dining table..hehe..Well the good thing would be tht it would help me in losing a few pounds :D
Wish me Luck!!!

#4.. Wanna play a GUITAR
And last but not the least I want to learn to play a guitar..its so cool!!and i'm gonna start this summer...well not summer actually...b'coz its almost rainy season...so i'm gonna start it now! Sailo has one beauty and she is pretty good at it.So she'll teach me, i hope.

Well I hope I complete...umm...start and complete all the things that I've planned *fingers crossed*!!

P.S.
Have you see Eminem's new video from his new album Relapse???Its disgusting & irritating! And its on #1 on VH1's Top 10!!!People what wrong with you???
