I wanted to write about so many things, so this will be a hotch potch post, with random references to random events of my life, so kindly bear with me.
1. Its absolutely pathetic to travel by public transport in Delhi, and for that matter the entire UP too. First, no one is ready to leave the ladies reserved seats, the conductor is not at all concerned about these issues and complaining does not help, the system is a little stupid with ladies seat on one side of the aisle instead of all at the front which is more sensible thing to do.
I fought with a lawyer who refused to leave seat for a pregnant lady, who was standing for about an hr. :
2. The election election and caste your vote which everyone keep shouting is such nonsense. I think that at least 20% of young, working population of india is not even living in the places where they have been issued voter ID cards. How the hell are we supposed to go and vote?
An online or distant voting system would bring in more results than spending money on loads of advertising and awareness programs.
3. The rickshaw waalas charge almost as much as a taxi in Gurgaon.
4. Half of the people i interact with have lost contact with the normal real life. We are the breed that spends 24 hrs in ac, have dinners parties/blow up thousands for a single dinner, shop in exorbitantly priced malls, and haggle with the rickshaw waalas for 5rs.
5. In life it actually does not matter from where you started, where you are going and how you are traveling is more important. This is for the very helpful person i met today and which made my day.
6. Sometimes i have loads to write and i am almost bursting with thoughts, but wen i actually start to type, i feel blank.
7. Arranged marriage is one fucking, pain in the ass thing to go through. The losers who were not even capable of getting a girl friend suddenly have more attitude, taste class and demands than Hritik Roshan.
8. Love is a very weak emotion, it cannot survive by itself. its a creeeper which needs the support of emotions like courage, faith and confidence.
And yes, the ego has to go, like a great person said "mutual surrender of ego".
9. I thought of writing something light, but lots of cribbing these days. :
10. Am totally bored. Wanna go back to K.

Blog Number 50 and such a sensible one. Congrats ma'am...
But then one minor glitch.. arranged marriage thing.. abuse for the guys who can't even get a girlfren...wat abt the girl bearing the pain? atleast she shud have managed a boyfren.
anyways i m not being chauvinistic or any arranged marriage supporter.I m just defending gonna-be-me and u know losers like me tend to argue.
taking back to your blog.A nice read indeed!!
Hey, c'mon, the girl could have managed a boy friend, but she didnt coz there was noone suitable, and now she has to be greatful that she made it to the consideration lists of those guys whom she would not even have given a second thought on normal day s :D :P
Oh ya, and thankyou so much for the praise, btw i hope its not a way of pulling my leg after my comments on your blog :S
Congratulations on the publication of your 50th post.It is a nice one.
The public transport of Delhi, u'll be shocked to know but I kinda liked it,the condition being nothing to hurry for, otherwise it was always frustrating. The election thing is quite true. Rickshaws, they charge more plus they leave you with jingling bones and a leaping head. 4th point doesn't go for me but yes for most of the Indian youth, it's true. 5th is good. 6th is same for most of the people I guess. 7th I agree to some extent.About love I'll say "Love is like pi(π) - natural, irrational, and very important." and yes it needs courage,faith and confidence. About the bored part, yes everyone yawns that word out every now and then.
Keep writing.
Well lots to comment. Dont want the comment to be longer than the post.. so baksh raha hoon :)
Hey ma'am, thanks :D. And wow... "Love is like a pi..." ma'am you turning in a philosopher.
@Hari, you know that i am more than interested in what you have to say. Please post, otherwise, post as a blog....
"love is a pi..........", mera nahi hai tepa hua hai.
Leave it, I'll jus talk about the actionable ones:
1.@50th post: Where're the other 27?
2.@Elections : Come on,we can do better than system-bashing for everything.
3.@Bored: Well, the grass's always greener on the..err.. the bananas are always riper on the other tree.
Hari, other 27 are saved as drafts, now i feel foolish for claiming the 50th post tag too soon :D
and about elections, please tell me how to practically do better than cribbing??
