A small step for you.. A giant leap for humanity ;)


Sometimes you can be content with the smaller things in life. You don't always need to make a huge effort or achieve an extraordinary feat to get great satisfaction. At times, a little act goes a long way. For instance, today when I went shopping, I saw a t-shirt that read "RECYCLE". I couldn't resist buying it. Not because it was inexpensive or looked good, but because of the thought that I would be spreading awareness.
So, whenever you find lights or fan switched on in an empty room, or water taps opened, just make a small effort to ascertain that energy is never wasted. Take an extra step to switch off the unused lights and fans and close the tap and help mankind move step ahead in conserving nature and making maximum use of resources.
Every little effort counts. Educate others. Spread awareness. After all, millions of tiny water droplets fill a jug. Contribute your little towards the greater good. Let us all join hands and make this world a better place to live in. Let's all GO GREEN!!!

Not so rise and shine.. Sigh..

The last thing you would want to wake up to is bad news or anything depressing. Yesterday was really awful for me, in the sense that I had to wake up to a very distressing news. Where is the world going to??
To avoid lending a helping hand to child protection agencies is forgivable, but to mortgage them for money is highly atrocious!! That too before the eyes of the authority?? And to think that every other place has people who don't even care for the poor little souls!!! Not even the police seem to be bothered about taking an initiative to stop this cruel deed.
To make things even more worse, the kids are either diseased or handicapped or have ailments. These are not accidental. In fact, the kidnappers purposefully make the kids ill so as to gain the onlookers attention. How much more cruel can these people get??? There is an instance of a boy of 7 years having a limp on one leg because acid was poured onto his leg. Such pitiless and shameful acts should be severely punished by the government!!! Or are they yet to wake up to the dastardly deeds of these wicked, heartless so-called "humans".
Is this what humanity is? Are humans going back in evolution? Aren't animals better than this? Where is all this leading to? It is high time we woke up and addressed this situation and bring things under control..

Au Revoir already??


Only 18 days more for the end of another chapter in my life. College seemed to pass on so quick. I still remember the first day I step foot into the corridors of Amrita, not knowing what lay ahead of me. Now, 4 years later, looking back at all the cherished (and of course, the not-so-cherished) memories, all I can say is that I've had one hellova experience to say the least. I still remember the first silly fight, the first real mischief, all the late-night fun, the noodles and soup nights, the night-outs in the mess during exams, the loud noises while playing in the rain, all the classes that the gang bunked and spent in canteen, the long chat sessions in the canteen, stealthily eating non-veg in the room (which we still do by the way!!) and loads more. It was indeed time spent worthwhile. And it was worthwhile because of all the lovely friends I made, my roommates, my classmates, and my other friends who mean a lot to me, who've stood by me through thick and thin. Cheers to the lovely 4 years of college all of you guys have given me!!

A New Beginning..

It's 11.32 at night and the idea finally culminated into action as I eventually decided to pen my thoughts down and let it out to the world. It is extremely weird that I've been wanting to blog for a long time but haven't made even a single move towards it till now. Let's see where this leads me.
