On the brighter side of life!!

well the previous post being such a soppy one, well here's counting the good things in life! for one, exams got over!!! finally a graduate!atleast hoping to be one.Did i mention exams this year were a massive disaster. not that we didnt study! these pics here would be ample proof that we went berserk studying!!



now that's Meg n Jot trying to understand stuff while the academic me was teaching.gosh!! the long hours we'd sit in that greenhouse of a visitors' room in Meg's hostel! got cooked to a frazzle trying to study industrial management!
The net result??
Meg ki maalish champi mere haathon!
Gosh exams can be fun with friends around!! rite jot? n meg?

its freak out time now!! 21 days for the job to begin.. so might as well!!!

A hairy tale!

Gosh! would someone believe it?? i actually got my hair cut!! not that i had much of an option. the hair stylist made one big mess of the cut he gave me, n for the sakes of appearances, i actualy had to get them cut.
i'd been thinking i'd be jolly pleased, but hell no!!! i'm so darn depressed! thankfully none of my friends have begun cribbing about the hair, but my mum's being so cold about the entire issue, i think i'll freeze in an hour or so!
well the hair does look kinda ok, especially so if you keep the religious sentiments apart( to which i do have a logic that i even tried discussing with God.. if you get your hair waxed n all the jazz at salons, why do ppl make such a brouhaha when a sikh girl gets her hair cut. its about understanding n following the principles,rite? well some ppl might just think i'm wrong, so that sentence aint open to debate!) well wtw, so if u do keep that aside n the fact that ive been the quintessential rapunzel in all groups, AND just think of what that god-awful stlist did to my hair, i don't look too bad.
but but but, i still want the long hair..
anyway, whats good is that i got rid of the split ends.. n m hoping my hair grows soon!!
as they say, nothing stays forever.. even a bad hair cut eventually grows out!
N God, i told you i was going to do it. so i think you'll forgive me.. n Mum?? well, thats an entirely different story?
[ If only she'd realize i don't like the short hair a lot myself! :( ]

people sometimes make a mockery out of the saddest incidents on the face of this planet. some of my family members just did. they've made a mockery out of my grandfather's death. i do not say my grandfather was a great man, but he was a loving n doting grandfather. at least that is what my parents insist.
but can you love some one who did utmost wrong to the two people who mean the world to you? surprising though it might be, i still did love my grandfather. if for nothing else then for the almost partial love he had for me, eldest son's daughter, n as he would say, the only child in the family.. well maybe that was coz i never did know what had transpired in the family for all this time.. all the things that i get to know after his death cause my love for him to diminish.

However, just how important can materialistic things be? nobody came with them, nobody's gonna be able to take them along. then why all this hurry n scurry after it all..
people wouldn't mind killing someone for one small piece of land? things couldn't have gotten worse!
n when people begin to play dirty politics in your family for the very same reason?what would you think of ur family then?
is the person no longer important? was his death so unimportant?did it cause no difference to you?
maybe it didn't. but is it so difficult to simply let the past be. n live with your head held high??
n just what exactly is the 'society'?? where do u people go, when a mother turns a father against his son?? where do u go when the brother turns his father against his brother?
n then we're expected to do things a certain way, coz a certain society is watching..
