Hi!


Well, honestly I can't figure out what to write about. So I thought let's just start as we do with a Hi! and go where the course takes us...


Right now, I'm pretty busy, the main reason being that I have busied myself...

As a second year engg. student in a pretty non-descriptive college, I don't know where I'm going and why I am going. I've been lapping up every opportunity I can to gain whatever skills I can and not knowing why. As diverse fields as Advanced programming and management at the same time!!! With my hard work, I know I'll excell at everything but the 'why' still remains unanswered.

Where am I going and what am I doing??? My head feels like it's soon going to burst trying to remind me of all the things that I gotta do or should be doing in the next hour, day, week, month, year... 

With an ultimate aim to be an entrepreneur, I'm still looking for the right set of people who would help me see the way. I mean, I don't want anybody illuminating the path with lights (as it is, it may turn out to be just about as reliable as the Indian electricity boards!) but can't someone just point me in the "right" direction??? And hey, don't preach! I'm too stubborn to accept something if it's not backed up with justifications. Just advise, all the more better if it's a set of people who are journeying with me. Destinations may be different but ships can be the same...

Why do I have to be so damn unlucky when it comes to having a peer group??? Am I the one who doesn't think straight, or is it them? No, I haven't had a fight with anybody, I just haven't met people with whom I can have brainstorming sessions about things I am interested in.

Hoping to meet them soon... coz I need to!

The journey is long, and I can't do it alone...

Does India need communal parties?

I think, it was Tan's post on this blog itself, Republic Day Event, where this question was raised. My answer. YES. we need communal parties even in Independent, Secular India. Now let me take you, back to events before 1947. When India was a colony of the British Empire. The congress party, in its attempt to gain momentum for the independence movement, heavily used Hinduism, an example of which is the famous Ganesh Utsav held in Mumbai every year. Who complains? No one. But at that time, due to various policies of the congress, Muslims started feeling alienated. Jinnah, in these times, got stubborn over the need of Pakistan and he did find a lot of supporters. Congress, up till late 1940's never got bothered by it. And why should we? Who complains? No one. But there were repercussions. The way people were butchered and slaughtered during that brief time when India got partitioned, was even worse than a civil war scenario. All in the name of religion. And there indeed was cr...

Politics - A profession

Note: This article was originally published on 18 March 2009, 01:10 on this blog and has been thoughtfully revised on 30 January 2026, 12:00 noon to reflect fresh insights and updated context. This post is loosely inspired by the  TATA Tea a d  where this politician goes to ask for votes and a voter asks him for his qualification and work experience the the important 'job' that he is embarking upon. The politician laughs at the voter, asking him what job is the voter referring to. The voter responds, "The job to run the country". Do politicians in other countries view politics as a profession? Or is politics viewed similarly across international boundaries? The best way of course to find out is go to that ever useful tool for professionals - LinkedIn.  Here are the results: Barrack Obama Hillary Clinton Sarah Palin The apparently technologically challenged Senator   John McCain. I also came across many politicians, prime ministers who have LinkedIn profiles. While ...

Adopt what is right.....

I see that many people of my age group adopt certain western cultures. School students and college goers are often seen buying friendship bands and valentine cards. I feel its not right. You may think I am traditional and don't keep up to date views. But if you think a little maturely you will find out its not modern to wear friendship bands. Its rather pure pride. Now as I am talking about western culture I should tell you that I'm not against it in fact I find some of the western values very much followable like dignity of work, civic sense, accountability etc. We have to maturely decide what to adopt from the westerners and what not to adopt. Why should we go after them when we have a culture of such great versatility? -Priya Joyce
