Eyes..

Eyes-windows of our mind and heart. Beacons that allow us to gaze and understand the things around us-good and bad, love and hate, peace and violence, lust and passion and most importantly emotions. Eyes give us an account of one's body language and attitude.

Though they help us in conveying our feelings, it is sometimes the feelings of the ones you love that really matter the most. BLUE EYES, GREEN EYES, BROWN EYES- all have their unique characteristics. Blue eyes remind you of the blueness of the sky and the sea. Vast emptiness of blue covering the earth-both in space and on the land. Green eyes remind me of the greenery that surrounds us. Both of these being rare, makes us that much more curious towards the concerned person. Brown eyes, the most common available, also have their own charisma.

Girls (nothing against anyone though) have unique ways and techniques to make those eyes all the more special. With all those "kajal" and "mascaras", they beautify their eyes by sitting endlessly in front of the mirror trying to get the perfect result. A beautiful pair of eyes coupled with a thin line of 'kajal' makes me go week in the knees. Those INTOXICATING eyes- feels as if they are going to gobble me up, take me to another world. It's a different world that exists inside those eyes. Full of expectations, full of love, full of romance...

"Nazar hai kajal se dhaki hui

Nasha hai inme bhari hui

Doob jane do hame is nashe main

Kya pata le jayegi yeh hamein kahan"

But sometimes, it really hurts that people having sight cannot see the good things that surround them. Think of the people who do not have the privilege of seeing things, seeing the ones they love, seeing the beautiful earth covered in a green carpet,,,,

Dec 6th-08-A TR8

[THIS BLOG WAS WRITTEN ON 6TH DEC-08 IN ANOTHER BLOG..THIS IS A COPY PASTE OF IT]
Sorry for the longgggggggggggg delay...well,its been a while since my last blog...busy with campus placements and classes as usual...7th semester over and glad that i got not one but 2 jobs-Vedanta Aluminium Ltd and Jindal Stainless Ltd....This sem has been one of the best sems of the 4 years in NIT Rourkela.

Classes & placements going side by side,the only problem was attendance (that too 85%). But that was also taken care off thanks to our Prof. who were really cool and understanding. Can u believe 100% attendance in the classes even if one has attended just 4-5 classes in the whole semester..Hats off to Prof. of Mechanical Engineering Department at NIT ROURKELA...they rock.

The winter vacations have started and to say, this is my last winter vacation i.e of 1 month..well, want to make most of it..and it has started on an unusual note..

Arrived at CUTTACK on 3rd and that too landed at the train station at 4:45 in the morning.Can u believe it? in my 4 years, never has the train left rourkela at the right time and landed at cuttack also at right time and that too at platform number 5...just could not believe my eyes and mind..well,kudos goes to LALU...mum was also shocked to see me arriving so early in the morning.

2 days went by..only soinggg, soinggg, soinggg...and net karinggg (well,this 'ing' thing just crept into my mind)...then came today..saturday...dec-6th, 2008...well the day might not be special to many but it was for me...
going on a tr8 is not a big thing in an engg institute but for me todays tr8 was something special..well that too with a girl..my school friend from nursery...had no contact with her since 8th standard...

To be frank, i have never gone a one on one tr8 with a girl and when she came,i felt really awkward..and i cant tell u how i felt on seeing her after so many years..i didnt know where to start..what to tell..what not to tell...it was like i was searching for words to tell and she was constantly asking me not to be conscious..but here i was..as conscious as ever...not even in my campus interviews have i felt such helplessness...my lips dried up...my mouth just could not talk...it was as if i was just in a desert longing for water...she kept looking at me straight and here i was,looking all around except at her.She was her normal self..i dont know what happened to me at that point?

So,here i was.with a girl (whom i regard as my mirror image in terms of understanding)..searching for the 26 alphabets and in-numerable words that are there in the english dictionary (they never come up at the right time)...she must have felt a little bit bore as i was itself feeling it.But gradually, this feeling passed by and here we were talking about school days...close friends..etc etc.

To say, it was a treat would be an understatement.It was as if i had found something that i had lost years ago.So, a special day, a special TR8 with a "Special Friend"

RS 3817!!!!!

The new year-2009 has arrived and along brings with it new rays of hopes and aspirations. As the year of the Dragon (2008) ends and the Year of Mouse beckons, everyone will be hoping for new luck and changes for good.

Life will be taking a new turn, especially for me and my friends at NIT ROURKELA as we will be entering our 8th sem which will be our last in this institute.Looking back at time, it was as if we had just entered hoping to shape our careers and future and now, we are at the brink of leaving this very place, which has been our abode for the last 4 summers and winters.

The first day of 2009 was rather unusual..mobile phone lines jammed due to heavy congestion..really i was completely fed up as i could not wish my friends and not even the reliable 'sms' was delivered to them and add to that, i stay in a hostel where the signal is simply pathetic..
Registration got over and i started to watch the most watched series here in NIT -PRISON BREAK.The series is in its 4th season now...and to tell you, i have already completed 11 episodes in just 2 days and my head is spinning like a top..it has got a gripping effect on you that doesnt let u take your eyes of.

One thing that i did not do last sem was giving my friends a good Treat on my BDay and also on getting a job and for that i had to listen all sorts of 4 letter words from almost all my friends.So, before coming here, i wanted to be the first one to give a treat in the new year.The day was 2nd of JAN,2009 and we,(12 of us) went to a restaurant-MOKSHA.

On entering it, there were this bunch of girls (3rd year batch) and everyone wanted to have the best seat (you can imagine why??-no hard feelings to anyone) and some had to adjust.2 of my friends went and sat on a table right besides them away from us and i had to call them (useless fellows).As soon as we all settled down, everything got haywire..all round confusion surrounding the menu, everyone ordered and ordered and ordered...even the guy taking the order got confused..The time in between, a photo session started with everyone posing in the weirdest of poses that could be possible on a table-empty plates,full plates,glass of water-nothing was spared. Even the girls sitting in the table were not spared..fotos were taken meticulously but the photographer just could not get a clear shot..bad luck..

And finally the menu arrived and it kept coming. and when it stopped, i knew i was in trouble.but by that time i didn't fathom that it would get out of my budget by so much.Everyone ate up to their neck.It was time for the bill...and what do u know??? RS 3817.The bomb had exploded...

But we managed and it was an evening to remember...especially for me...The time, the moment was priceless..and i want this sem to be priceless..moments that will remain inside me for ever!!!!
