The Party I observed...

Have you ever been to a party and observed... I mean everyone goes to parties and dances.. has fun chills... but sometime.. just once maybe you should just observe ... this post is about the one time I did just that ..

Big party loud music most people are half drunk ... some people sitting others blaring into the karaoke mic... still others dancing to the songs others are singing and there I spotted across a long table a girl ... young, fair don't know her name so lets call her Ying and then there was a guy again young, fair don't know his name either so lets call him Yang, it seemed like he din't know Ying very well ... a friend`s friend I`m guessing. The two seemed to be having some sort of conversation ... the general kinds... safe topics .. about the weather, work health... the party went on Yang`s friend, the same that was Ying`s friend started to get quite high and could not help but sing along with every song and kept insisting that Ying and Yang join the fun ... they both seemed happier with the conversation .. I guess it must have moved on to more interesting subjects.
It was a matter of time before Ying and Yang re positioned their seats to face each other more ... well Yang was practically sitting across the table ... one would get the feeling he wanted to be close to her but I could be mistaken, maybe he was just trying to be heard... I gave him the benefit of doubt, but that dint prevent me from noticing when broke the touch barrier and when she responded with a gentle giggle .. but then again maybe he had just said something funny that I couldn't hear while simultaneously finding no other place to place his hand other than on hers.

The night went on and along comes another guy ... young, slightly taller than Yang again din`t know Ying very well but knew Yang well enough to want to sit at the same table...lets call him Yoong conversation ensued now Yoong adding his two bits, Ying reacting similarly to both Yang and Yoong and Yang does not seem very happy about it.. he needs another drink... gets it and gets back in the game... a few more drinks later its time for Ying to leave and it seems like while Yang is some points ahead of Yoong, Yoong is not letting go without a fight so they both go to walk Ying to her car and she drives off into the ... well its already night so she does not drive off into the sunset but she drives off and I guess she never gave Yoong or Yang another thought..

The Welcome

There are things in the world that are crazy and then there are those things that we do because they are crazy, insane, embarrassing and at times downright outrageous. Yesterday was one of those days when we did something just because it was just too much fun. A small back ground, Joey, a close friend was interning for the last one month while all of us were sitting in college, he was enjoying life in Mumbai and constantly bragging about all the meetings and deals he was working on. He kept saying things like no one in the firm knows what the deal is about except for him and we were pretty much fed up of it. So we decided to bring him down to earth the moment he was back. Momo and I decided to go pick him up at the station and embarrass him… basically have some fun. Now it just so happened that he called me the night before saying that he had left Mumbai in a half sleeves T- Shirt and that he would freeze here early in the morning and so I should come and save him with some warm clothes, so it was all pretty much set. So at around 6:30am Momo, Vinitha, AK and I reached the station and while the three of them waited outside the station with the embarrassment package I went in to fetch him. I brought him out and what followed is in the Video below, and they say a picture speaks more than a thousand words.

Yes we did have a real live BAND !!!

Welcome back Joey

The brain is evolution compatible

The mind they say is huge and we only use around 10% of its full potential in our entire life. How then, at times we feel like our mind is going to blast? How at times we feel like there is too much to handle, how we feel that things are beyond our understanding? Where is the remainder of the 90% of our brain then? Or is it some sort of envelope? Something that has to be over clocked to the extent that it bursts at the seams and then allows us to use say another 20% of brain power??

Or are we just a hardware that is evolution compatible our brain has certain parts that we don’t have the software to run! We have still not developed the codes to do things that our brain will be able to control like for example we will discover wormholes and teleportation will be a reality and a part of the brain will be dedicated to controlling that process. Maybe telekinetic will be another part, maybe we will have USB port and part of our brain will be the 54.7 Ghz processor to run it. The possibilities are infinite maybe wireless communication will happen mentally. Only the future will tell but it’s important that we keep our minds open… never know when the new software comes about and we have a whole new look to life.

Thou must be Crazy .....Crazy is good

Insanity as a way of life is gaining popularity…. The Joker put it very nicely .. Insanity is like gravity… all you need is a little push.

Insanity .. it is not a state of mind, it is not an abnormality, it is a way of life. It is a choice of living life in the absence of convention, in the ignorance of tradition, the freedom to make your own mistakes and learn for yourself. Insanity, the way I know is doing what you love and loving what you do.

It is the absence of control, the absence of knowledge. It’s like writing a novel without knowing the ending, so that you can enjoy it as you write. Insanity is eliminating the concept of understanding. Not needing to understand things as they stand because they stand, not needing others to understand your actions, your thoughts and finally the elimination of the desire to understand yourself. That is true insanity… true freedom … true life J
