Naa, not a dust bin, I prefer a *letter box*

In my colony there are no DUSTBINS and I real hate it when I am forced to throw something on the road that is only when, when I am tired carrying the trash in my hand.
My friend and me eat ice cream and chocolates everyday and I always make sure that the wrappers either go into a dustbin or in my hand or in my pockets. And thanks to me now she has got a habit to hand me the wrappers and its upto me what to do... well since there is NO DUSTBIN I HAVE TO THROW THE STUFF on the periphery and the sides... I sometimes throw the trash in front of a park where there is big garbage bag. This bag has always been in front of the board saying "यहाँ कूडा न फेंके"...

Then it was one day, the I had this chocolate wrappers in my hand and was wondering where to throw.
There is a letter box in our colony which is not in use since a decade or few years less than that. I am so good *hehe* that I posted that wrapper... *U got it?* I threw the wraper into the letter box. *I made sure no one was watching me but if anyone did, then I still dont care... hehe* I did this twice...
But still, what else could I do!!! Now I am thinking something, that I should write a letter to our president, I mean president of my colony...
*hehe*

The Indian Mintality, is Still Hidden yet Shown...

I was walking back with my two friends from tution and just next to us few kiddos about 8 or 10, were playing something and as we passed them, they started fighting on something and one of them about 10, said to the other "saale teri MC doonga, *blah-blah-blah*".

I was taken back by it. Back Struck-Struck-Struck.

Couldnt digest it AT ALL! I mean I might have learnt those words when I was 12-13 still I say between myfriends and no one else, though they are just KIDDOS. And If I say I know mah limits and say only when needed!*hehe*.

Well, we didnt learn this stuff from our parents, and in school you understand everything by time but these kiddos if go to school would not be in a senior school yet!

After passing them I just simply turend and in a shocked inntonation I said to one my friends 'Did ya hear that?' and guess what I was replied with 'haan! toh kya hua? what is such a big deal?'. GoddDammit. Cant there be an innocent living of innocence!!!!!!

Still living backward...


Well, dont think I'm crticizing but yeah, I real dont like what is happening around here...

There is this girl belonging to ____ cast family. And according to that cast, the next generation should marry someone belongs to the same cast. And well, she is already engaged. She got engaged, when she was in 11. *his girl goes into mah van, is in mah school and is in 12*. And she is going to get marries as soon as she passes 12...


As she acts and everything, one can make out that she is mentally prepared for marrying and stuff with *nO DrEams* that is no ambition to do in family. She said today in van 'atleast am doing my 12'... She is not that great in studies and got promoted in 12 with much of difficulties. She had obtained abt 50% or less in her 10. I know her since I was in KG *kindergarden* as she used take care of me, when we had buses instead.


Anyways, *bac*. So, she has no ambition to be overcome aka fulfill. Even our driver was like, you have nothing to do? no fufture than raising kids and making food for the family. Now c'mon, you are in a modern living. If it would have been US, instead, I think we all can imagine what it would have been like. This is the time when women have their own life, their own achievements. Where we talk that man-woman are neck to neck, the example of this cast really discourage it.
I really dunno, if it really keep on like that then...

*they wanted to rise, they fell
they wanted to jump, they did dwell*
*PS*- as I have started with, that I aint criticizing anything. I have not even taken the name of the girl or the cast. It is just a post that reflects my opinions. If it really did hurt, then my apologizes.

Better Indian schools...

It would be nice if each and every skool in India would become better...all these kind of skools suck!
It wud be better if, instead of being taught all the hard lessons and diff subjects, we can have only few major like English and science and then there can be a Music period.... A music room with all the diff kinds of instruments and those who know how to play can be given a card and allowed to play and thn the others can listen to others playing...then an art period...a huge hall with lotsa papers and paint and then a sports periods...evryone can play watevar they wanna play and then like...they can teach good manners and how to behave and how to keep the country clean and have classes bout how to improve our country and protest against corruption and littering.... (haf seen children of my skool littering..)
this system of education just seems so silly.... it just consists of mugging up and mugging up mugging up...Theres not much scope to increase our imagination or creativity.... newayz...wat are we gonna do learning bout History?? Instead we can be taught how to protect the monuments and we can learn gardening and more practical lessons other than theoritical... Whats the use of learning wats inside a frog and inside an onion and all?? Whats the use of learning bout the mosquitos and all... Instead we can learn how to stop mosquito breeding and start a campaign and go around doing somthing like social service...
Whats the use learning bout amoeba and all those unicellular animals and viruses when we can't even see them with our own eyes...they can't even proove anything... how can we believe the reproduction of Hydra when we haven't seen a real Hydra with out own naked eyes??
Girls can be taught cooking which wud really help... and then..all those kinda stuff..
And also they can maintain good wash rooms with showers and soap and tissues and all those stuff. there can also be real lockers where we can put our books evryday..Whats the use carrying loads and loads od books evryday... why dont they improve?
If only we, the ppl of India really have some kinda feeling to make India the top country in the world... being the citizens of India, dont u think we all must take some interest in making our motherland a better place to live??

The Real India...



If you are new to India oe have never seen the *Real India* then, I'll tell ya what exactly it is... The one we are now seeing, facing and going through is the predicted future of Indians... like adopting the western fashion, the new trends, the open-ness aka being broad minded... but the reality is that, that the real india is still neglected and not worked upon...


Bangalore is something relevant to that... is on Headlines Today, a program was started *Bangalore Beats*. It was a seven dayz program featuring that hoe Bangalore has turned into a metropolitan city... though i just saw only once, couldnot manage to see everyday... so the fact is, that it also highlighted that the Real Bangalore was neglected... and that is what I saw today... But a lil different from the Bangalore ones...

So here we are... COMPARE...

East India: Education is developing, the states, cities are well maintained.

South India: Education is 100% there. Even the shopkeepers understand english (my experience) and everything is well. Even the real India is not neglected till a ceryain limit!

West India: Is okay... or to be precise, I have no GOOD facts about it... so just let it be!!!

North India: Education is good enough, but the maintainence gettin worse n worse as each day passes!!!

Yeah... Here I am talking about North India. Delhi, the major city aka capital of the country is mah hometown and what everyday I go through is unbelieveable... If you wannna see real Delhi, rather to be precise, Real North India, then you should prefer walking.

Now, while walking if you pass by any narrow lane aka street, where you can listen and also see people shouting, or even saying "Saale BC, tere ko mein dekhta hoon... (blah-blah-blah)", then dont be scared or find it weird... Rather I'll say 'Walk in Dude'... This is real India, real Delhi. People know, no manners of anything. Women are still outcasted that is, ' Women should be at home.... n Blah-blah blah'... The place, which would be stinking to the hell... Children speaking those words. Garbage and waste especially plastic bags all over... People not in their homes (well, the houses they posses is equivalent to one average room we posess) cause they dont have enough space to fit them selves... Dogs, cows, pigs all over... and guess what, you might find a family owning a Goat as its pet... Ghosh!!!
well cant help it now...
This is something which we can uplift but-but-but, the question is "Who Will?"

'The sun didnt rise,The Hope was gone
Just lifted a gaze and found everything was Drowned...'
*PS* Hope You Got Mah Point
*PPS* Suggestions required of how can we put up a solution to it.

Taj Mahal - a Wonder!

Taj Mahal has been elected! Taj Mahal has been selected out of 21 candidates.!!!!!!! I was really glad when i heard the news that Taj has been chosen!

I was pretty unsure if the Taj would be selected, coz it was a global polling & many Indians hadn't voted for Taj Mahal... I was also a little worried, wat would happen if the Taj wasnt selected. But then, I was jumping for joy when I saw on TV that Taj has been voted by the people of the WORLD, as one of the New Seven Wonders of the world.. It was an awesome feeling on the inside of me!





India is my country and I am thrilled tat the Taj Mahal, the symbol of india, is one among the top 7 greats! Long live India and everyone and everything related to India!!!!!
