Not a big fan of text messaging, but I would like to try this one out!

Life is a long lesson in humility
— James M. Barrie- I actually want to tell this to a couple of friends of mine, who take every opportunity to flash every possible stupid stuff. And when I mean “stupid stuff”, I mean things like GRE score, how many admits he/she managed to get…as if our lives depend on things like these.
So, for example, just as an interesting thought for you, there are 350 million people in India who are classified as middle class. That’s bigger than America. Their middle class is larger than our entire population. And when you start getting wealth, you start demanding better nutrition and better food, and so demand is high, and that causes the price to go up
Rising food prices: After Rice, Bush blames India - ExpressIndia.Com Dear G.W. Bush, you need to open a basic book in Economics and learn the Law of Demand and Supply and the Foreign Exchange Parity Relations. Please keep your mouth shut, henceforth. An increase in demand increases the price, but also leads to an increase in the quantity. At the long term equilibrium level, parity will be restored. However, I don’t see how this is directly related to the rising prices of grains in the US. Perhaps you need to keep a rosy view of the American economy and that’s the reason that you’re inventing your own theories.

I don’t want to spend the rest of my life explaining myself. You either get it or you don’t.

Exactly my feelings, when people don’t get the connections amongst the various things I do. From now on, I am citing this.

It cannot be ascertained that anyone is innocent whereas it can be stated with certainty that all are guilty

I like the red background. Very vibrant.

I’m totally out of inspiration and don’t know what to write about here. Sorry for being so quiet lately. It will only get worse, until my exam gets over on the 7th of June. I haven’t really been surfing the net. So, have absolutely nothing to post.

Four more days before I start on my new job. Last few hours of freedom. After this, I’ll pine for the weekends and for the occasional holidays.

Russell Peters

thillythenny:

is coming to SF!

1) His tickets are almost sold out. Russell, stop being so popular! Me and my crackhead friends want to get together and buy tix, but we need more time!

2) I’d never actually imagine myself to be the type to go to a comedy club. That is until I ran into Russell’s video on MySpace (back when it doesn’t reak of slimey guys and “musicians”) and almost laughed my way into a six pack.

3) $48 for tickets is a little crazy… I don’t usually even pay that for concerts… This better be damn good! Muahahaha.

4) Nothing to do with Russell, I think I need to be more positive.

Really? Wow! That guy is really funny. I love his Youtube videos.

Dear ex-blog friend

Dear ex-Blog Friend,

If you want to tear down my blog posts, then at least have the decency to include a trackback. Don’t tell that you are such a coward! I don’t understand why I should agree with all that you’ve got to say about movies and books. Surely we have different personalities. If you can’t deal with some differences, then I don’t see how you will survive in this world. Grow up!

The blogroll at WP.com has become a joke. List anyone who visits your blog. Unlist them when they stop commenting or when they don’t agree with your viewpoints!

I’m thinking of removing my blogroll all together. For good.

On Getting a New Job

I had no doubt regarding the fact that the madness does.not.end after you get a job. In fact, it starts all over again. And that is exactly what’s been happening since last night. I don’t think I’ll survive in the corporate world very long. I long to go back to school and study some more. After all, we live only once. Better use it to do something that you want to. I should probably chalk out a plan to save enough money to go back and get a PhD, and hopefully, start next Fall.

Writing Styles

candywrapper:

For one of my classes, our teacher asked us to jot down a few sentences about what we thought our writing style was. This led me to think about what I think the perfect and ideal combination of styles would be:


Maybe I’ll think of more later. Or maybe I’ll change my mind and take some authors out. But to me, that would make for an AMAZING book.

Having read Murakami, Marquez,Antoine de Saint Exupéry and Hosseini, I can attest to the fact that they are brilliant. I even like Paul Auster, JM Coetzee, Arundhati Roy, Albert Camus, Naguib Mahfouz and Margaret Atwood.
