Intermittent Smiles

Time does not wait for nobody
14 days filled with bliss
Time moved at its own fast pace
Sometimes all you need is time to freeze
A special thanks to all my friends who made this fortnight happen!!!
Miss you all

NOte: 2008 here I come :)..yipeeeeeeeeee

Partial -Differential -Life :)

People who know me would have heard me say that anything and everything in life is a grand mathematical setup.
Your own personal life is a delta function a Dirac Delta function think it over, you hit a peak and all of a sudden at times you hit rock bottom.
Your life is good peaceful happy behaves as a very good continuous/differentiable -analytic function till you hit a difficulty -mathematically you now have a singularity in the area of interest(Life).....a general solution exists for all of these problems/functions----to keep smiling

Should I or Shoud She or Should WE??

Sometimes you are so confused in life, and its times like these you are influenced by other people. Especially if the other person can relate to what you are talking and if she/he quotes examples/situations which are very very similar to whats happening in your life. And all of a sudden you are drawn into what others are saying and you are now left with
a)Ignore them-say to yourself whatever it is; the case is always different irrespective as to however similar it may appear
b) HEAR - try and implement something positive
c)LISTEN-do the same thing what they did, esp if they are feeling really good after what they did.
To further narrow these choices requires time just for yourself, will power and courage. Whatever decisions you might take may be the right ones or wrong ones, but then if you made that choice never look back and never regret. As we all by now would have realized LIFE GOES ON.

What are we thinking???

We dont have a ENERGY Crisis...
I think we have a EXERGY crisis....

Seriously think bout IT!!!

I guess our approach so far has been STUPID!!!!

I DelvE

I have traveled across the Universe through the years..space and time against me..
To find HER
Sometimes going all the way is just another way saying
Its just the start!!!

WHO is=Perfect MaTcH

Well before I start this post, a small introduction about my Entropy Generation Minimization Prof Dr. Sobel- He is a Phd/Dr from from MIT..period. I dont think I need to say more.

Early-for my standards anything before noon- Monday morning after his class, I went to discuss about the paper we were planning to write on entropy analysis for my anode flow field. He, as usual gave certain guidelines and work to keep me busy for atleast a month :)...when discussing certain important issues he noticed that there was a voice message for him. He pressed the button, it was his wife; it said-'Hi honey have a question in math'..BEEP....

Seeing the curiosity on my face Dr Sobel said 'Nikesh' I know what you are thinking...its not a complicated (math) question ..trust me..' I then asked him if his wife was also from MIT, he grinned and said my wife cant add two numbers...This was something I never expected. With an astonished look on my face, I asked him if he married a 'non-engineer'.

This is what he told me ' Nikesh is there a law that says an engineer has to marry an engineer; she may not be the brightest kid , she may be 1/infinity times as good as you in Math, but her apple pies can melt even the best of brains!! she is a sweetheart..someone that many men dream of having in their lifetime'. This conversation immediately reminded me of my Dad..I always asked him 'Pa you are a Doc from one of the best Medical Schools in India what made you fall in love and eventually marry someone like Ma who has a major in Arts, and he used to say Niki its small imperfections and differences like these that make life so exciting , imagine if everything was perfect then there would be nothing to look for the next day. He always gave Ma half the credit for whatever he achieved , and he always concluded saying son trust your wife at least when it comes to Tax computations :)'

The probability of me finding my perfect match tends to zero, or even better I think I'm in a strong position to believe its zero :)..the reasons fall out as follows
->She should be a grl (this leaves me with half the humans on earth) P1
--->She should be an engineer (this leaves like what 0.000000.....1 the population of women)P2
----->At the time she should be between age 24-28 (divide the above number by 3, assuming the deaths from tom grow exponentially thanks t0 inefficient doctors :)--hi Pa)P3
------>She should appreciate fluids and heat transfer (divide the above number by an appropriate big number)P4
l..................
l............... }--Lots of other factors like Indian..short hair..blah blah.etc.
l......Pi

------->the biggest factor of course she has to be shorter than or equal to my height---->all of the above means..Pn
P(of grl becoming Nikis wife)=~O(p1*p2*p3*......*pn)

LIFE IS ALWAYS A TRADE-OFF

Phew!!!...back to design a hydrogen JT refrigeration system to remove 20W at 20 K...btw if anyone knows anything about JT systems help me I'm in Dire Straits as you can see.

Hail to the UnSunG HeRoEs

As whole of India celebrates the T20 world cup win, I remain silent worried more about whats happening to our national game HOCKEY. I really think its a more demanding and tactful game than cricket; T20 at least.
Our hockey team has done really well in the past but no real appreciation has gone their way. On the other hand you have millions being offered to cricketers and homes being donated by Sahara.
Recently India won the Asian cup and half the people back home dint even know there was a hockey tournament, whats more shocking is that the team entered finals defeating tough teams such as South Korea and the sports minister who was supposed to be the chief guest for the final never even appeared..What an A!@ HOLE.
This blog is dedicated to all those Unsung Heroes who really deserved all the true Appreciation. Good job; hopefully hockey gets more recognition in the future. I'm just a student yearning to rise the awareness of hockey in India, I only wish I can do something better.

Mama Said....

Troubles will come and they will pass....
Go find a woman and you'll find love.....
And don't forget son...
There is always someone above.....

Learn To let Go :)

---Article from The Times of India
We tend to cling to every object in our lives. We hold on to our profession, relationship or possession as if our entire world depends on them. We are so busy clinging to our own lives, that we have forgotten to live with the flow. We are afraid to move ahead, afraid to let go.
Life in essence is like an unobstructed, unrestrained, uncontrolled flow of a river. Life flows at its own pace and the ultimate source of all our pain and sufferings is our tendency to cling to and obstruct the flow. Professional life stagnates, relationships are broken, possessions are lost; all because we refused to let go when we were actually required to let things take their own course.
Why do we cling? We cling because change scares us; we cling because we are afraid to face the unknown, to face challenges; we cling because we feel secure if the status quo is maintained; we cling because we refuse to believe that life can never be static; because we refuse to accept the transience of everything; we believe that everything is in our hands. We do not have enough faith in life and that higher force which is omnipotent and omnipresent. In the chaos of existence, we have lost touch with our higher self. Most of us lead a life which is similar to that of a child who is lost in a crowd, separated from his guardians. He has nobody to place his faith on. He is afraid, insecure, suspicious about everyone and everything.
We live under the false illusion of having everything under our control. The spirit of getting things done becomes a problem when we continue to cling on even after we have exhorted all our efforts. We are overwhelmed by a sense of despair and disillusion when things move beyond our control. It is at this stage we need to learn to let go. Several times relationships are broken just because we tried too hard to make them work. We didn’t give the breathing space they required to grow. We didn’t let go and let them take their own course.
Professionally or personally, once all the efforts are made towards achieving a goal, we must learn to let go and let life take the best course. It might or might not be of one’s choice, but if we have faith, we will realise that it inevitably is the best course. We need to believe that forces above us are far better equipped to make judgments for us. We must learn to have faith in their judgment. Letting go, however, does not mean turning into a fatalist. One cannot sit idle in life and expect life to take care of itself. Karma, the fulfilment of one’s duties is the ultimate objective of all human existence and if we fail to fulfil our duties towards life, life inevitably fails us.
When God gives us dreams, He shares them with us. Whatever we consider our dreams, are actually His dreams and He gives us the capability to realise them. The part we are required to play is to ensure the optimum usage of the capabilities bestowed upon us. And once we have played our part with utmost honesty and effort, we need to let go, step aside and let God step in to fulfil our dreams. After all, they are His dreams, too.

Poetic Murder

The Gibbs equations are of prime importance when it comes to problem solving in any thermal oriented subject. The two equations are 'similar' and give the same information.
GIBBS1: dh=Tds-vdp
GIBBS 2:du=Tds-pdv
But the conditions to apply GIBBS1 and GIBBS2 are different. I always get confused as to which equation is to be applied...so I decided to make a this poem ---

ROSES ARE RED
VIOLETS ARE BLUE
Open systems use 'h'
Closed systems use 'u'

Without Me

When sometimes....
The Sky fails to shine..
No moon...Stars missing....
When you are all alone....
When you get scared...
All you have to do is turn back...
And I'll be there filling the empty space :)

When sometimes....
The sky fails to bring sunshine...
No sun...Clouds Filling...
When you get all wet...
When you get scared...
All you have to do is look up...
And I'll be there in every drop...

When sometimes.....
This life fails to make you Smile...
No Happiness...Punishing..
When you get no love..
When you feel all all alone....
All you have to do is...
Think of the first time you had my shoulders....
And I'll be there to support you ALWAYS....

Sometimes...
When I miss you...
When I feel the pain...
All I do is hide it within me...
See you smile

Sometimes...
All you have to know is
WE was is and will always be the better part of ME :)

why so many questions have no answers...
Someday U'll know
I was the one for you.....

'Lift ' your thought

Scenario 1: You have an elevator( popularly known as lift) ' elevator A' that ascends upward/descends downward at a slow pace meaning acceleration is low.

Scenario 2: You have an elevator say 'elevator B' that has greater acceleration.

Which of the elevators do you think will be more efficient and why?

If your a mechanical engineer, if you cant answer this kill yourself. I'm serious :)

If you consider yourself to be an engineer...give it a shot

All the Best!!!

Ambition

Hurdles???...screw you I only see my goal

Research 2 :)

The more time you take to work on ur research the less you have to show to your advisor :)

Research :)

My take on Research----
Research is nothing and reporting elegantly the nothing you do/did. :)

Transmission third world war third round

A decade of the weapon of sound above ground

Ain't no shelter if you're looking for shadeI lick shots at the brutal charade

As the polls close like a casket

On truth devoured

A silent play on the shadow of power

A spectacle monopolized

The camera's eye on choice disguised

Was it cast for the mass who burn and toil?

Or for the vultures who thirst for blood and oil?

A spectacle monopolized

They hold the reins and stole your eyes

The fistagons bullets and bombs

Who stuff the banksWho staff the party ranks

More for Gore or the son of a drug lord

None of the above fuck it cut the cord

tiMinG----???

dented with thoughts and deadlines... I feel that sometimes time is too less in our hands....
My thought: Y cant we think that time can move in parallel...why should it be sequential..are we limited by our senses/perception??
reminds me of an amazing kannada song :)..our band fav
If u come today ur too early (pronounced yarly)
If u come tom ur too late(pronounced too lite)...:d:D:)

The ONE

When I first walked with you
I wondered how did I miss you for such ..
A long time...
The door has opened wide...
As i see your smile behind the bright sky...I wondered
How did i miss you for so long...
Was I blind....

I sacrifice now to YOU without a fight
I walk beside you
Wherever you are
Whatever it takes
No matter how far

And today ...your image
Wandered through my head
I smiled just like a baby
As I lay awake in bed

Im learning all about my life By looking through your eyes....... Don't walk in front of me, I may not follow.
Don't walk behind me, I may not lead.
Just walk beside me and be my friend forever.

Your done ...Long Ago.....

You've wasted your moments
Your time...
Your isolated
Times escaping.....
Your done....you have none....
Your life is now a compromise .....
A meaningless sacrifice.....

Pain is what you get...
Loss is what you will have....
How is this feeling....Is it killing you
I told you...I warned you
But sometimes it falls on deaf ears...
Your life is now a compromise
A meaningless sacrifice....


.....All i can tell u is STAY Alive
In your isolated life........

For ThE sOrE hEaRt

when the end is near...faster than than you think......all you can do SMILE




------leave

Its amazing
How you make your face just like a wall
How you take your heart and turn it off
How I turn my head and lose it all

Its unnerving
How just one move puts me by myself
There you go just trusting someone else
Now I know I put us both through hell

Im not saying there wasnt nothing wrong
I just didnt think youd ever get tired of me
Im now saying we ever had the right to hold on
I just didnt wanna let it get away from me

But if thats how its gonna leave
Straight out from underneath
Then well see whos sorry now
If thats how its gonna stand, when
You know youve been depending on
The one youre leaving now
The one youre leaving out

Its aggravating
How you threw me on and you tore me out
How your good intentions turn to doubt
The way you needed time to sort it out

Im not saying there wasnt nothing wrong
I just didnt think youd ever get tired of me
Im now saying we ever had the right to hold on
I just didnt wanna let it get away from me

But if thats how its gonna leave
Straight out from underneath
Then well see whos sorry now
If thats how its gonna stand, when
You know youve been depending on
The one youre leaving now
The one youre leaving out

The one youre leaving now
The one youre leaving out

Im not saying there wasnt nothing wrong
I just didnt think youd ever get tired of me

But if thats how its gonna leave
Straight out from underneath
Then well see whos sorry now
If thats how its gonna stand, when
You know youve been depending on
The one youre leaving now
The one youre leaving out

Tell me is that how its going to end
When you know youve been depending on
The one youre leaving now
And the one youre leaving out

The one youre leaving now
The one youre leaving out

i RAISE.....frm the DEAD

Most of us are caught up with trepidation inside us....and we all know the only way to RAISE is to defeat it....
Ive compared this feeling to a girl and the name of this girl is FEAR.....the first part Paradise Lost talks about the struggle and the second part Paradise Regained is a small part talking about how he runs into this new girl...STRENGTH


Paradise Lost

Caught in my own mind
Insecurity u created in me....Killing me
Falling in this unknown
Your arms fail to hold me
I fall into your arms.......The ARMS OF SORROW

Little did I notice the EVIL in you
Blinded.....Your Shadow falls on me
Deafened by the ECHO of your voice
Stung by your touch...Poisoned

I'm taking a deep breath
You know ill fight this battle
I will give it all my might
I plunge into...
YOUR arms...The ARMS OF SORROW

Little did I notice the EVIL in you
Blinded.....Your Shadow falls on me
Deafened by the ECHO of your voice
Stung by your touch...Poisoned

As I look to your eyes ...
Your ashamed.....I see fear in your eyes
You exist because I LIVE
Without me I know you will be IMPRISONED

-----------------------------------------------------

Paradise Regained

You will be alone
Kill the daemons inside you
It was not easy....Leaving you
But in the distance I see NEW LOVE NEW HOPE

I run run..
Tired but still..
I plunge into
Your arms.....ARMS THAT SHIELD ME

I leave you
I know you are a SUN
In someone else's sky
Not mine....Your defeated

I run run..
Tired but still..
I plunge into
Your arms.....ARMS THAT SHIELD ME...NEW LOVE NEW HOPE

The Way I see.....IT

Well addicted to Cafe Latte in Star 'bucks' I'm already on the path of spending 2.41'BUCKS'(at least) a day on my coffee."Well I like my coffee as i Like my Women HOT". Well most of the times I go for a single tall latte, at times I prefer double shot latte......--Niki ur goddamn brain is again diverting u frm the reason you wanted this blog to be written.......---
Oopsie hmmm.....now every cup of Starbucks comes with a interesting view point often drilled by someone great and famous and sometimes given by some 'unknown'. Frankly the vIeWs on a tall cup is boring and mundane.....keeping this in Mind I decided to buy a Grande size Latte today...and to my surprise the view was an awesome n interesting one...here it is
' Imagine a world in which every single person on the planet is given free access to the sum of all human knowledge.Wikis gives us a place where anyone who is kind, thoughtful and intelligent can come and join us in building a better and rational world'-Jimi Wales (Founder of Wikipedia)
Well its just not coffee at Starbucks.......

With an Imaginary YOU....

A closed room four walls......

.....the only sound..... echo of ur breath

...a smile seen in the portrait....two hearts so close..

....each giving fate a fighting chance .....

Tomorrow a brand new day brings in hope....a surety of togetherness...

A promise made is a promise kept ....thats a promise.....

Tears never to be shed...if shed remember im here to wipe them off ur face.....

The smile on ur face is the joy of my life......

Memories ignite...An old currency gives new strength...photos stick in the wallet ....

the missing ear....the missing hug...a shoulder feeling light without a small but heavy head missing on it

A kiss for the night...a kiss for the portrait...

Tonight is no different..

The Power of ONE............

One love
One blood
One life
You got to do what you should

One life
With each other
Sisters
Brothers

One life
But were not the same
We get to carry each other
Carry each other

One...........UHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

My Sweet Lord...

YOU have given me so much..still I dont even dedicate a a full Hr to you...I've commited so many sins still u always forgive me......I cant see you...i cant feel you...but still there can never be a day without remembering you for atleast a few seconds.....I feel the I'm strongest when Im with you praying...I feel I'm the toughest whn I touch your feet.....My trust and faith in you will never lessen...Thanx for everything..,..wHATEVER i'M wATEVER i DO ITS ALL BECAUSE OF YOU....

Trust----->Who??

I was talking to a frnd yest and we were talking bout how things change so fast in so less time...ppl being so friendly all of sudden start hating u...everything turns upside down....pain comes frm the most unexpected quarters sometimes...i also believe in this 'whn ppl give u shit give them more shit '.....i usually dont follow this but at times trust me ive put ppl thru misery till they beg for forgiveness...Not ready to be nice.....also never expect anything good from anyone...everyones fake....they r not as good or worth as u think they are....this is one of my Fav songs reminds me of the college days we used to belt this in our cars and speed....this is Trust from Megadeth---

Lost in a dream
Nothing is what it seems
Searching my head
For the words that you said
Tears filled my eyes
As we said our last goodbyes
The sad scene replays
Of you walking away

My body aches from mistakes
Betrayed by lust
We lied to each other so much
That in nothing we trust

Time and again
She repeats lets be friends
I smile and say yes
Another truth bends,
I must confess

I try to let go, but I know
Well never end til were dust
We lied to each other again
But I wish I could trust

My body aches from mistakes
Betrayed by lust
We lied to each other so much
That in nothing we trust

God help me please, on my knees
Betrayed by lust
We lied to each other so much
Now theres nothing we trust

How could this be happening to me
Im lying when I say, trust me
I cant believe this is true
Trust hurts
Why does trust equal suffering

Absolutely nothing we trust

Also listen to the song

A SiLeNt WISH..........

In life small things/events matter more than huge/ important events......U might be hurt when a small belonging given to you by ur love like a signature note ,photo is lost or broken,but it wouldnt matter much to u if you screwed up your car,bike etc......
You tend to remember small unimportant events like the first sms frm ur love ur first conversation with her/him and u would care least bout an SMS frm a friend who conveyed that u got a job...U can remember her/his first smile but you cant remember the name your 1st std teacher u laid the foundation for your success...
How does our brain follow this natural selection process.....whats the criteria for this selection...this being the case im forced to believe that there is a strong relation between two of our organs THE HEART and THE BRAIN.....and it would be Naive to conclude that both function independently....What is this relation??....Well it might require some great math,a complex algorithm,a complicated signal,individualistic dependency,a never ending chemical reaction, to simply put its something only that stays in the complex domain and it would be something always unknown for the less mortal:man...
But the day we get to understand 'this' strange phenomena there would be less people hurt and the world will be a better place to live.....
.....This is MY Silent wish...shhhhhhhh

Rubina......

Some of the best composed songs/music ;are those which the artists dedicate to their LOVE......guess im at the liberty of classifying such songs as Serenades,songs dedicated to their loved ones.....

I hear ur whispers
It Brings me back to those days
I revisit time through memories
A few will never be erased......permanent.....

There a lot of Serenades,popular ones being Layla from Eric Clapton The Bard Song, Fade from Staind(written remembering his ex grl frnd).Whats common in such songs is the intensity in lyrics,intensity of music ,notes chords all powerful and it will surely create an everlasting impression in our mind more importantly in our hearts......

When i lose my passion
When i lose trust in this world
UR the only friend i turn too
The worlds so cold the world is Gone...
The worlds gone wrong way too far for way too long.......

One song that has amazed me, one of the few songs where i can feel all emotions through its music,one of the few songs that makes you remember ur loved ones and the best part being -this song has no lyrics......This being the case its even difficult to express emotions because you have to convert emotions to chords lead bass n drums and not put emotions into words.

Your acts have captivated me
Ur screams are chasing me
This pain is all too much....
Will you hold my my hand through all this
Theres too much that time cannot erase......

The song is called Rubina, its from one of my favorite artists Joe Satriani.He composed this song and dedicated it to his wife/then grl friend.For me every time i listen to this song it brings out a smile.The structure of the song its simplicity ,the harmonic tunes its simple time signature a middle bass solo the bend notes the repeat of the most melodious chorus all add to the essence of this well composed song.Not all girls are lucky when it comes to their boyfriends taking the pain in composing a song for them.One of my own band mate composed a song to his girl friend the entire song frm lyrics to the music...i witnessed the joy in her eyes whn she heard it.....to date we are proud of him so is she.....awwwwwwwww!!!.

Its so hard to tell myself
That ur not with me...this moment...this min
But though ur still with me....
I feel alone.....
Im here to wipe off all those tears n fears...
Im ur yours for years.....

RUBINA...RUBINA...wat a lucky girl.....to have such a lovely song in her name...listen to it if u have a chance....ull understand the power of love!!!....

Don't know much about history
Don't know much biology

Don't know much about the french I took
But I do know that I love you And I know that if you loved me too
What a wonderful world this would be
Don't know much about geography
Don't know much trigonometry
Don't know much about algebra
Don't know what a slide rule is for
But I know that one and one is two
And if this one could be with you
What a wonderful world this would be
Now I don't claim to be an A student
But I'm tryin' to be Oh maybe by being an A student, baby I can win your love for me
Don't know much about history
Don't know much biology
Don't know much about science books
Don't know much about the french I took

A SeNsIbLe MaiL frm my frnd a few months bck :-)

wHN I feel alone wnn i feel let down, i ve got this mail which ive starred...and it bring a smile on my face no matter wat my mood is....
Heres the mail------->wat a wonderful idiotic frnd :-)
Hello Amigos..FYI, today was supposed 2 b Nikesh’s last day in Wipro (the news resulted in a drastic n never imagined result..every1 in Wipro including Premji had a smile playin on their lips today I heard..don blame them :) ) but then the news that v had 2 tolerate the idiot till monday :( :(Jokes apart, as I was thinking of today’s “Thot for the day” on my way 2 the office, the words which struck me were “Don’t cry that it got over, smile that it happened”. But, on second thoughts, those words did not strike a chord nor did they seem appropriate, coz, as a wise man once said, a friendship which can end, never did really start in the first place. So, Nikesh, it’s not a goodbye from us, Amigos, to u…only loads of good luck and a promise of being friends forever :)I am sure I echo each and every Amigo’s thoughts when I say that we all had an amazing time with u. Ur lil acts of goodness (and a million acts of craziness :) ) made some real good memories which will stay with all of us all through, be it ur supposedly funny jokes (FYI, people laugh at them solely out of sympathy..nothin more nothin less :) ) or Kulli’s and ur’s group net-send messages (weird and out-of-context r the 2 adjectives which best describe those messages :) ). All of us, at some point or another, have seen an amazing friend (yes, a friend is hidden really, really, really really, really,really,really deep down inside this cruel monster ;) ) in Nikesh :)It’s difficult 2 wish farewell but all of us hope sincerely from our hearts that u have an awesome life and fantastic friends out there. As u say goodbye 2 Wipro, we, Amigos, wish u loads of good luck n best wishes. May life always give u a million reasons 2 smile. God bless :)Finally, the most important thing..before I forget…always remember one thing about Amigos…”We were ALWAYS laughing AT u, not WITH u “ :)Three cheers for Nikesh..Hip “his” hurray :)Kai kodu Amigos :)

A sEnSiBlE Song!!! for My FrNd

One of my frnds sent me this lovely song yesterday....thank you......this being one my frnds bday i dedicate this song to her....Hey Blindy/Vd/Vaids...enjoy madi!!

Yesterday I saw the sun shinin',
And the leaves were fallin' down softly,
My cold hands needed a warm, warm touch,
And I was thinkin' about you.
Here I am lookin' for signs to lead me,
You hold my hand, but do you really need me?
But I'll be thinkin' about you,
I'll be thinkin' about you.
When you sail across the ocean waters,
And you reach the other side safely,
Could you smile a little smile for me? 'cause
I'll be thinkin' about you,
I'll be thinkin' about you,
I'll be thinkin' about you,
I'll be thinkin' about you...

Sunrise, sunriseLooks like mornin' in your eyes
But the clocks held 9:15 for hours
Sunrise, sunrise
Couldn't tempt us if it tried'
Cause the afternoon's already come and goneAnd I said hoo...
To youSurprise, surprise
Couldn't find it in your eyes
But I'm sure it's written all over my face
Surprise, surprise
Never something I could hide
When I see we made it through another day
And I said hoo...
To youNow good nightT
hrow its cover downOn me again
Ooh and if I'm rightIt's the only way
To bring me back
Hoo...To youHoo...

Love this song was introduced by my very close frnd.......Thank you....Happy Valentines ppl....
What am I to you
Tell me darling true
To me you are the sea
Vast as you can be
And deep the shade of blue
When you're feeling low
To whom else do you go
See I cry if youR hurt
I'd give you my last shirt
Because I love you soIf my sky should fall
Would you even call
Opened up my heartI never want to partI'm giving you the ball
When I look in your eyesI can feel the butterfliesI love you when you're blue
Tell me darlin' trueWhat am I to you
Yeah well if my sky should fall
Would you even call
Opened up my heart
Never wanna part
I'm giving you the ball
When I look in your eyes
I can feel the butterflies
Could you find a love in me
Could you carve me in a tree
Don't fill my heart with lies
I will you love when you're blueTell me darlin' true
What am I to you
What am I to you
What am I to you......To ppl who belive in the POWER OF lOVE

The Kid

Walking alone THE kid just felt that he had to do something that interests him,he thought that just studies would really kill him and something he never enjoyed was reading Textbooks cos he thought that it was too elementary and 'useless'.........moreover he wanted to be different from the average student....
Pondering over this thought Robert reached home.As usual he ran and hugged his mom,who would test him on what he had learnt in school.Flawless ,the answers came out from Roberts mouth.Mom ;as a token of appreciation gave him a a long bar of DAIRY MILK chocolate.Mom being Mom asked Robert what he was thinking and why he was silent,Robert answered that he wanted to do something more than just studies.Mom took his hand and took him straight to his cousins house,she convinced his cousin(MIKE) to take him to Tennis every alternate day.Robert was excited and was very regular with his Tennis practise sessions.
Months passed the day had finally come after months of wall practise and other routines ,it was time for Robert to show his skill on the court.He always wanted to skid on clay and hit the tennis ball as hard as possible.He agreed to team up with his cousin against a formidable team who looked invincible,being his first match he was really tensed and understably so.All his shots seem to miss the line or hit the net,his cousin got impatient and a lot of words were thrown at him....when finally the match was lost Mike told Roberts mom that he was not good and was fit to do math n score good in his exams.Tears rolled down Roberts eyes that day,he skipped his dinner and continuously wept in his room all the shots he played visited him again and again,one of the only few days he had cried.
His Mom came to his rescue, she said that criticism is an opportunity for learning she told him that the only aim for him should be to beat Mike who had made his dream a living hell then.

A new set of courts were laid very close to his house,he now practised twice a day.All aimed to beat his cousin,his game improved each day all his shots were 'killer shots' as his coach would describe them.The coach was so impressed that he made frequent trips to pursue his parents to watch him play,finally he gained the nick name 'Becky'.Soon Becky got his cousin to his knees who agreed that he(Becky) was the better one. He then wanted to try his luck to play for his state but his parents were completely against it as they wanted him not to get diverted frm his studies.After days of skipping dinners , constant retorts to his parents,the coach convinced his parents.

The selection was a smooth cruise and he found himself in the Under14 state team.The killer shots flew frm his racket as the others watched in vain.His opponents feared him,when the draws for matches were happening they wanted anyone other than Becks.

.....The Dreadful Day-----call it a curse bad luck i dont know,in one of the matches when he skid to get a shot on his favorite forehand he lost balance and twisted his ankle,to add to this severe pain his exams were just a week away and he could not put his feet on the ground.His mom broke his racket she cried all night in the hospital when the doc said a small surgery was necessary.---End of His Dream

Months passed yrs passed....he did not have the courage to get bck on court and his Mom never wanted him to do so....every time he saw a tennis match on TV he was reminded bout the dreadful day...for a long time he felt some integral part of his life was missing...He found alternate ways to fill this gap music theater etc etc...

After yrs recently he decided to get his muscles working,he borrowed a racket and played a few shots he then translated them to short matches,not to mention that scenes frm a distinct past/ memory still reflect on him .

Waiting for his new racket, a new day ,a new start......Is Becky BCK??Well time be the answer ...

NEVER STOP CHASING UR DREAM....U MIGHT FAIL MISERABLY BUT ATLEAST U GAVE IT A SHOT!!

Strange Deja VU

"They"---who???... said that when u listen to prog rock ur mind gets into another dimension.....it starts framing things that u wud have never imagined otherwise.....i did not belive this till it happened to me!!!!
I was introduced to "real"prog metal very very late like at the age of 20....i never appreciated it cos i was the person who was completely into maiden megadeth etc etc(a typical 20 yr old geek)...more over i never understood the technical part of music...all these just kept me away frm prog.....Finally thanks to my ever persevering band mate(&best friend) who was adamant to compose a prog song got me "forcefully"listening to Dream Theater....he then grilled into me the importance of time signatures..... I was thrilled to see DT kick ass esp Scenes frm NewYork my all time favorite live show......At a later stage i was then Introduced to RUSH(respect ppl respect...--da ali)by my Band(MRP 40).....to this day its a plesure to listen to them.....pure magic....and the following explanation was the result of excessive "RusH+MATH".......
As i laid down for some rest.....
Down came the attack of a strange strange dream......
Curves numbers symbols..
Simple singly, but complex together...
Made no sense......Trying hard to solve .....In vain....
Needles in the clock ticking
Faster and Faster it seems to move....smaller and smaller gets the circle
The more n more its getting me
What ;something i dont know...But its feeling inside me....
One last time ----will it fade away.......

Curves get together....
taking their time to form something substancial
a brilliant white light....trying to brighten something...
allowing the light to light up each and every curve (that is slowly but surely taking shape)
watever it is/was ....scared to open my eyes........

Needles in the clock ticking
Faster and Faster it seems to move....smaller and smaller gets the circle
The more n more its getting me
What ;something i dont know...But its feeling inside me....
One last time ----will it fade away.......

As the curves fit in exact shape exact symmetry
Now accompanied by strange sounds....
A voice similar...heard long before....
Is this a step foward to know,.....
Is this a step backward to forget....
Something i dont know.....

Needles in the clock ticking
Faster and Faster it seems to move....smaller and smaller gets the circle
The more n more its getting me
What ;something i dont know...But its feeling inside me....One last time ----will it fade away.......

The voice leads to nothing...The numbers reads certain dates----15 15 15...
But is it some truth i dont want to trust....
If i did...then
This feeling inside me
Finally found my love,
Ive finally broke free
No longer torn apart.....

Needles in the clock ticking
Faster and Faster it seems to move....smaller and smaller gets the circle
The more n more its getting me
What ;something i dont know...But its feeling inside me....One last time ----will it fade
away.......

The white light fades....
The sounds mute.....
The face becomes clear n clears out leaving not a curve.....
The numbers die too.....Leaving no thoughts in the mind as a NeW Day Sets in....
