D

with about a week and a half left for the project demo, and with dat Uma and Mangirish leavin soon from Goa...we decided to get onto one final good meet today...a movie n the day to enjoy of course...

Just the 4 of us...spent time full day till 6 in da evenin...food from 'Royal Foods' was good indeed...its really worth a try once again n i must tell my parents bout it...wonder why they dont have it up at Panaji...it wud have been a greatt success for sure...cant say much now as the Congress is up in Goa once again with a majority, and with all the goons possible like Babush and Pacheko - guess its 'gundaraj' now...

The movie seen was D -> Ram Gopal Verma's latest underworld flick - this time focussing on Dawood's life itself...Ranveer Hooda playin the lead role in da movie (i managed to catch the name at the end of the movie)...n well he does literally carry the film on his shoulders...his character is portayed fabulously by Verma - although he hasnt even directed da movie - just produced it..but da drops of Verma's ideas are all over da movie's canvas...

Verma has once again managed to create a very good film undoubtedly...having focussed a lot on the main character...he even has shown the linkups of da actor (called Dishu in da movie) wid a heroine from Bollywood - presumably Mandakini from the actual Bollywood...who is Dawood's wife...n mann does she look beautiful!!!! I mean - where does Verma pick such characters - name is Rukhsar n guess i shud do a bit of checkin on her online...wat ya say?

D proves to be a good followin (wont say sequel) to Satya and Company - looks like Verma RULES when it comes to makin movies on da underworld...gave it a four and a half on five...the movie is of short length...n is definitely worth a watch...so yeah catch it at ur nearest theatre.

Alchemist points the way ---->path to motivation and destiny...

'Baapat, with one hand to his cheek- in a pose to slap himself any time and Antao, staring like the dumbest asshole in da world...wat more is needed? the 10 minutes of a orals were to pass soon - the questions easy..n Limy and Shruti in good form today...guess all's well that ends well...justified by da 'yippppeeeeee' and yell from Limy's side da moment the door of the lab opened out to the temporary free hold and shut onto us from behind da portals of one sick n boring theory subject we had this time (true i had asked for the elective - par come on yaaron - kuch raham karo!)...dats Multimedia Systems for us...'

The orals done with..spent da rest of the day with my best friend and others, stopped to talk to my juniors aft da exam at Leo's and i was off home...now for the main part of today's story...ahem!

finished a greattttt book today which was really really appreciable...and was worth all da comments i had seen or read bout it earlier...Paulo Coelho's Alchemist...not that da title under Ayesha Takia's (mannnn she's hotttttttt) interview in the newspaper attracted me to it...a few other friends had too...but it was really worth it. I had discovered it accidentally in the library, even when Rohan had told me i wudnt find it...guess it wanted to be read by me...

wont state much on the story - just that its that of a boy who seeks a certain trasure hidden in some part of the world for him...n hopes and aspires to find it only on the basis of his dreams...coz he believes in them...some important lessons we learn from it - neva fear from pursuing one's own dreams - perserverance and determination will help one achieve them and MUCH MORE soon enugh....its just that we shudnt give up in life - dats coz for each one of us in da world, there is some treasure hidden somewhere...just waitin for us to cast our eyes on it...but maybe it just takes more that a mere view...it takes dedication and effort to pursue one's dreams - so GUYS dont be afraid of dreamin !!!

wud recommend the book to neone who
a) wants some motivation in life
b) is broken down n nothin in life seems possible
c) who needs some pastime
d) all of the above

Cheers!

first meetin wid a PGite...

to sum up day's events...library today mornin...n luckilly got the book i wanted very soon - The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho...read only 30 pages and was drawn to the simplicity of the book...really good books written here...simple language but highly motivatin...plannin to finish it off in 2-3 days...got mannny more books to read...

met up with my best friend in college today later and had lunch with her and the others..but stupidly ended the day with a silly argument..which i proposed to end the moment i reached home...had other plans today..was supposed to meet Jormund Elver- the PGite i used to chat with on Yahoo mess...got a lift to Panaji in Aditya's car - he was the guy who had apparently appreciated my performance in the GD classes at IMS...by da way he is from IIFT..

Jormund Elver - or Kunal as is real name was, yeah was cool...a strike-on 100 percentiler in English...i guess a whole lot owin to the HUGE amount of readin that guy does - believe me i guess he has realllly read a LOTTT...mythology, sociology, fiction, non-fiction etc etc etc etc....a lot more to name....so i was basically takin suggesions from him on how shud i improve my readin habits...

he is gonna join NMIMS..guess only coz his Math n DI performance wasnt upto mark...n had to lose out on some greatt calls...else his percentile was a 99+...wonder why he dint convert SP Jain as he had workex n was an MCom too...hamesha lagtaa tha main bhi english mein kuch teer mar hi saktaa tha..but well - english bein my strongest section let me down on 21st Nov...so der is nuthin much i can say now but pray for da best for ne entrance exam now onwards...

Kunal apparently loves Goa..like ne other b-schooler around i guess...have met many more on chat who do so n havent been surprised...looks like me am runnin away from Goa though...simply bcoz it cant give sufficient exposure to my priorities, and also my growth...as Goa is normally meant to be a place post-retirin n for a holiday..but one shud prefer to have his/her education outside Goa acc to me...as it has more exposure to muchhh more stuff...

day endin out with da last words of the blog- yes do come to GOA and have a BLASTT!!
