How flexibility can be handy in life


Flexibility can really help you lead a more comfortable life. I'm saying this because recently I have been able to solve a lot of problems in my life just by twisting the way I think about it. It is very very successful. What I realize is that most problems are not really problems but unnecessary narrow minded thoughts which can easily be over with. Like you have a crush on a girl and suddenly you feel she is perfect and will be most suitable to lead a life with. It is ok if you are successful on your try with the chick, if you fail most people takes some time to get over it. What I think a person should do is that, they should be more flexible and think of the millions of fish in the sea ahead. It should be taken as simple as the way I just said it.

Indian women deserves more


Recently I saw this ad by Central Govt of India to enlighten ladies of the necessities to get a working visa and pass other tests before going abroad for work. It is good that government is taking initiatives like these, before they use to come up with ads only about need to pay income tax which indeed is the revenue for them. What I didnot like is that it was about a woman going to the middle east as a house MAID!! Dignity of labour, I believe in that but c'mon they have got no better idea, crap these people. Inequalities in our society is major problem for us and is this way we should look at Indian women, hell no. Women in India deserves better and this ad will help them in no way.

How I met your mother


I have never watched friends but this one is exceptional - How I met your mother. If somebody had watch all the episodes till date in three days it must be something really interesting. I started watching this one after a really bad day at work, it really brightens things up. Every single character is unique and with Niel Patick Harris how can it possible go wrong, it gonna be legen..wait for it..dary. That guy is awesome with all his awesomness. I particularly like character Robin, very interesting. I would love to date somebody with a character like her, even if the person is not as beautiful as she is. Sometimes I wish I could lead a life like them, my life is so boring. When I grow old, will I have any stories to tell my kids? I envy friendship between Ted and Marshall since high school, Lily & Marshall's lifelong relationship. Robin and Barney to top it all. Oh man!! How I met your mother rocks. I really appreciate everyone working behind it.

Was it worth the money.. Yes it was worth the money


Why is it that people don't appreciate 'SAW' movies a lot? I mean I haven't watched much more thrilling movies than 'SAW' and last one, SAW 4 was the most thrilling and incomprehensible of the lot. People don't like it for it's violence and vulgar scenes, I understand it is not for those weak hearted ones, but what I want to point out is that this is not a fictional story. Like my friend was telling me there has been many such serial killers who went lunatic like the Jigsaw in the movie for funny reasons. For example Elizabeth Bathory who killed 600 young women and girls in 1600's to bath in their blood inorder to retain her youth. Welcome to the real world!! This is not a video tape made by some weird thinkers to scare people away, infact I have not seen a single movie in which you could not guess the accomplice until the end of the movie. What makes it more intriguing and indulging is the fact you will be given clues of him(accomplice) through out the length of the movie. Also some of the traps he frames on his victims is worth praising for it's brilliance rest aside vulgarities. My personal favourite is the one in SAW 4 that involves characters Rex and Morgan. Both their bodies are peirced with many metal rods and inorder to survive Morgan needs to remove those rods from her body. Removing the rods would cause Rex to bleed to death, as the rods were pierced through major arteries in his body. The rods, however, would only leave minor wounds in Morgan's body if she removed them, as none of her arteries were harmed. See, what a brilliant idea that is.

Kerala, where citzens are made 'fools' by politicians



Yesterday I heard our chief minister talk about his solutions to tackle the hovoc heavy rain brings in. It is really disturbing to hear what he said, he said that rain is gift from god that brings us good, so it can sometimes causes us a few problems, let us just suffer it. It can really raise the blood pressure of any educated sensible folk. Does these leaders know how people live outside our state, our country? Being a non-resident Indian and living in one of most livable country in the world, I felt really sad and pity for all those peers of mine out there in Kerala who take in all these nonsenses from our leaders.I wish I could take all my country people and show how people life in a developed country and ask them to compare that to how they live in their own country.In the country I live infastructure is so good that, all that people can ask for from the government for the same problem is to cover more and more footpath with rain shelters. Poor malayalis, I pity for my folks out there for not able to lead a good life that I'm here bestowed with. The most important problem that we face is that we don't know what we are lacking in and what our problems are and we are being told by our hopeless leaders that they are doing their best. These people should realise that we have the highest percentage of literate people in the country and we cannot be fooled. I also know that our people understand these nonsenses, but realising all these crap is not going to help us, we need to do more. When there is rise in petrol prices is not, when we need to protest because it is a worldwide change and there is nothing we can do about it. But it is when our leaders says these crap that we need to raise our voices.East or West INDIA is the BEST!!

Importance of Education



Now that I'm working, why should I study and upgrade myself and also expense is a big turn off. But then I thought about it a lot and found that most successful people in this world are well educated. Most important prerequisite for success is education, whatever the field be. It is so much evident when you look at the world around you. Less educated people are being screwed by people with better education day after day. Infact they do less work and earn more money in life. The saying 'Knowledge is power' is very much words of wisdoms. One example is the forex market where those with better knowledge of the market slaughter those with less knowlege. Being very much interested in this market, this fact is what drives to learn and learn and keep improving all the time. When you think of people like Sabeer Bhatia and guys like that, intially you might think those are exeptions, but those guys are not exceptions, they learn on course of their work, activities.

Difference beauty can bring over you..



I'm a person who appreciates beauty a lot. I was recently thinking of the influence of beauty in my life. What I could find was that whenever I felt I was not 'OK' looking, my confidence was low and I was seldom interested in socializing and I develop this inferiority complex that has demolishing effect in my life. To be successful in life I think it is very essential for me to be confident about myself. To be confident and eventually to be successful, I need to meet minimum requirements of beauty. It might sound crazy but this is my personal opinion. Being beautiful has a psychological effect on your personality and it really does good to you and your life.

I hate to tell that I'm an England football team fan






What a hopeless football team 'Three Lions are.. I was watching the team I support cruise to another famous defeat in Wembley which would unfortunately prevent English betting companies from providing odds on chances of a major trophy next year at Austria and Switzerland. Well yes, if I were supporting a team with low quality like in the case of Andorra or something then it's fine but here we have a team with Gerrard, Lampard, Rooney(Leave him alone, he was injured), Terry, Owen, Beckham etc. How on earth can I not be frustrated. Mclaren has to answer to the English as well as people like me who spend sleepless night watching these highly talented bunches of players play so poorly. What was the manager's tactics? I could only see all the players in middle and back putting poor long balls to equally poor Peter Crouch. What was wrong with defence and why were these players looking at each others back when 2 goals easily went in the opening 14 minutes. I see the importance of a good manager in the world of football. Team with a good manager will always have a good character like the manager, see Manchester United of Sir Alex Ferguson. At the moment they have no chemistry, no ambition, drive so that means it would definitely end in failure. As of now these highly paid, glamour loving players are better in wagging their tails to the army of WAGs than playing football when it comes to the national team.

What makes Shah Rukh the special one in bollywood?



Well, this must have been discussed by millions of people around the world..but after watching 'Om Shanthi Om' I think he is well and truly the King Khan. Personally, for me to become a fan of a person he has to be good both professionally and personally. The fact that he is a chain smoker and his poor punctuality is very much exposed these days in public. It is very difficult for me to look up to someone like him, however good he is professionally. But then again why would TAG Heuer want him as their brand ambassador despite his annoying punctuality. I heard he was even late for the photo shoot for the brand. There are many others in Indian cinema who acts better than him, for example Aamir Khan who's shows are also equally successful like SRK. Neither is he the best looking one in Indian cinema. What difference that Shah Rukh brings about, is his on screen charisma..liveliness. He is like the moon in the dark sky, he brings about a good brightness and happiness to the screen. He is a wonderful wonderful performer. His funny acts and style of speech just draws people to him. I have heard a lot of my friends criticize his acting in sentimental scenes. But I think it is because that is something that he is not in life. Rest of time he just tries to be himself, which is what make it look so cool and easy. He also works very very hard behind the scenes, something that has to be appreciated whatever you do in life. He also makes sure that he chooses his roles very wisely which is why he is retaining this crown of being the King for a long long time. I have been watching hindi movies since very recently but never did I hear anybody other than SRK being called the 'King of Indian Cinema'
