Jay's oeuvre

A bit of jazz in blog, however, falls tremendously short of being a musical

3 a.m. ..Still alive!!!

I came back from the practice (already 11:30 pm).. was very tired. I surfed for a while. Then, I contacted study group members. They had already divided the work(for the day's presentation) .. The topic that wasn't chosen by anyone , was to be done by me. However, it could only be started if someone else would have sent me after completing his part... I asked him and he said I should sleep and wake up early by then he will complete and send me. I was hungry (had missed my dinner). I slept at 12:30 am and woke up at 2:30 am.. I was hungry but didn't have enough to order from canteen. So i walked down to the floor's pantry. It was dark and everyone was asleep. Suddenly, one door flung open letting a dim light pour outside from the room.

I picked up a cake and some lays from the pantry, slowly strolled towards the room and I asked to the figure in semi darkness.

Jay: "Christopher, u didn't sleep or just woke up?"

Christopher:"nah, i didn't sleep"

Jay: "Y so? u used to sleep early and it's 3 a.m."

Christopher: "Nothing much. I am an Indian"


p.s. Christopher is a French student , here on exchange programme for one term.

Baptism...by ire.

Its been late to put it here. The dorm naming ceremony was over like 2 months back.However, we have been joined by two exchange students Fabian and Christopher. Two days back we conducted the "Story session" (on which the dorm names are based) for the two.

This is the draft that I had prepared for this years dorm naming ceremony. We have to make certain changes for the two new exotic inhabitants of our dorm cause we don't feel we can subject them to such a rustic and sadistic pleasure of ours.

The Draft

Maxi as the God's own thundering voice :
"We residents of Dorm 17 , welcome everyone to the most coveted and respected ceremony of our Dorm. Dorm 17 over the years has seen its transition from being Swarga Satrah (the heaven seventeen) to the Dorm of Love and now to an inflection point Of being the Dorm of lust. Now, as the baton has to be passed to the new batch of 17 shockers we have gathered to bless the noobs with dorm names. Dorm names not only represent a tag but it is the identity of the ones existence and oozes property of the orgasmic pleasure that being a WIMWIAN provides to its students. Everyone has carried the Dorm Name with pride.. and hope the next batch of our warriors do the same."

"I hereby Formally announce the ceremony open."

Steps to the glory and pseudo intellectual tranquility:-

Step 1: Bows

Step 2: (Rubby exemplifies) I formally known as .......... today in this auspicious day ....announce that my name would be " " henceforth. True to the "....." tradition of the Dorm 17 takes the oath that i will carry the dorm name with pride rest of my life as a WIMWIAN.

Step 3: water to be poured on the feet (of dorm God).


Step 4: Bows in all direction to respect the presence of omnipresent Almighty.
Step 5: Proudly present (LOUDLY) ur name ot the dorm God and bow three times .

The stigma and the stigmatized were :-

Prateeek = Lotion

Siddhartha = Monty

Himanshu = Rusky

Tarun = Silo

Sourjo = Volvo

Vivek = Pyro

Apbhramaya = Auntie (now has been changed to be a less pinching name)

Garjun = Bubbles

Amit = jhalak

Jugal = Cryo

Laloo ji : The prince and the pauper..

11:00am .. phone call. I was asleep .. and soon classes were to follow. geez!!!! the phone.

Himanshu : aur kya bol rahen hain laloo ji.. mile ya nahin. (So, what's Laloo saying.. did u meet him or not).

and the phone calls kept pouring for the whole day. This would be the story of each student in the campus.

Laloo is such a phenomenon for media. His rustic image and his funny comments are despised by the so called elite and celebrated by others at the same moment. Whatever u say .. u just cant ignore this guy.Now, he is the Railway Minister and under him the ailing Railways have seen a turnaround in its financial fortunes. There is a case study under Prof. Raghuram on this turnaround. Laluji was called on to share his experience in managing Railways.

I had my classes and only 50 students were allowed into the class room for a healthy discussion to take place(selection: on 1st come 1st basis.) I had missed out on that. Adding to this, there was a 120 page case to be read and presented b4 the faculty and then faculty selected 4 ppts for the D day (too much pain tha yaar!!!!).

The usual story u can listen from all the places I will give some inside the class insights.

In the class room :

(The gal in there is Sachi.. and (in the right pic) there is Ashok(aka chhui mui) and Manish (aka BoBs i call him Boobs).

Lalooji was flanked by two of his Railway officers, who were to deal with technical aspects.

There were too many ppl in the class room. Prof. asked some of them to leave. When they didn't buzz. Prof. asked Lalooji "if they are among the ones who were included in the list to attend".

Laloo: aye!! chalo jao .. bola na. baad mein baat kar lena (hey! go.. i said go. get in touch later.)
some of them were top rung officials in Railways.

discussion continued, presentation, technical stuff on how the unit cost has decreased, is this a turnaround and stuff.

Most intriguing part : Prof. Raghuram's Hindi and Lalooji's interpretation of Raghuram's English.

lmao. Prof. Raghuram ain't proficient in Hindi and Laloo ji is not the most adept in English speaking.

Some Q was asked by Prof. Lalooji obv. didn't understand. He gets up to answer.
Prof R : sir, its ok you can answer from there.
Lalooji : Baith ke bhi koi padhata hai kya. yahan padhane aaye hain. (who teaches .. in standing position.I have come here to teach.)

Lalooji was tucked in those little microphone in his color. Asst: mic is fit. you can speak now.

Lalooji: but where is the mic. (gesturing by holding his hand as if he is holding those big mics on hand while his speaches.)

giggles.

Lalooji says thanks to all .. how gr8 he felt etc and finished by thanking all.

An IAS elbows him consistently (they have been slipping in notes as to what is to be said throughout his speach). Lalooji: "kya hai"

IAS: sir, u forgot the director. Lalooji: " oh haan .. thank you director sahab also"

Quote : I only patted the right people for their work and didn't interfere.

Later, in press conf. someone asked :"sir, had u not been leader what do u think u would have been"

Laloo : "kya bakwaas hai .. leader nahin hote to leader hote" ( bull crap, had i not been leader, i would have been a leader)

journalist: "sir,... but still"

Lalooji: "ye koi sawaal hai. jab main bakri charata tha to leader tha. jab main guy charata tha to leader tha. college mein leader aur ab bhi leader ... aur itne saalon ke baad poochhte ho leader nahin hota to.. Leader hota"

( is this a Q!!!!!, when i used to goad goats and cows i was a leader. I was a leader in college. I am a leader now.. and after so many years u ak me if i wasn't a leader.. I wd have been a leader"

******************************************************************
Later at nite, Dad called.

Dad: " How was your new teacher...we are looking for u in the television"
Jay: " hahahaha"

******************************************************************
here is a vid that someone captured.

Lightning strikes..


some one captured this .. in today's heavy rains..The view is from Dorm 20 in the new campus. Ironical .. for the completion of exactly one month of a similar strike in life. Nice pic.

The ground .. u see, has been dug to search for King Solomon's goldmine.

New template and lost comments..

Sounds like the name of next flick from Jay and Silent Bob..

I changed my layout.. finally. Ppl kept pressing me to change it ..I don't really love too many template changes. I used to have a myspace account and i had a green profile that stayed there for like forever.

I had a few difficulties in fixing this profile but finally was able to do. I will keep bringing some modifications.

Funny thing (soos, eltu, John) is ppl said they have been commenting on my posts..wtf !! and i cudnt see anything .. I figured i clicked comment moderation and didnt put any email address.. so all the comments posted by them were sent to me for approval but i never received any. But now i have fixed that.

Meanwhile, i checked out Christopher's Blog. The layout is not a blogger's delight but the enthusiasm of being in India is inescapable. His interest in photography, soccer and making friends is so evident on his page.

Last nite at 2:00 am, I took a break from watching "Pirates of the Caribbean" and strolled around the floor.. saw Christopher's door open.. he was making movies from those numerous pics he has collected during his journey. He said: " that's for my family and friends".

Exchange ...Time..

New term has begun after a 10 days break. Thankfully during the registration we didn't have to bring in as many books as it used to be b4.

This term is said to be the coolest term .. in the sense that lot of activities other than academics is involved and Academic load is less.this is also the term wherein we get a chance to go for exchange (overseas) and exchange students come in our college.

Most students come to our college from France[15], Italy[6] and Scandinavia[6]. Some expat Indians take this opportunity to get back to their homeland.
to maintain the legacy this year also one Italian and one French guy has been alotted to our Dorm.


Last year Tomosso[Italian] and Clement [Italian] let us njoy thier pinching comments on each others' nation about Soccer [big rivalry] and lifestyle during our Dorm get-togethers.

This time Christopher [French] has joined us in my floor , in Rubby's room (Rubby is off to NUS,Singapore in exchange and i m njoying his cooler).

Had a brief chat with Christopher , he seems a bubbly guy .. typical interest in footer and said " hey i have come to learn English here so lets talk". he he

In the Persuasive Communication class I had a brush with other Exchange students TOM, Amelie and Sara.

Goona start a new blog on this class.. Its fun being out there.

Hey! goota go, TEACHERS DAY CELEBRATIONS are starting in the Auditorium.
So, lets say a good beginning to the new term .. helps me forget some of the setbacks i suffered in last couple of months.
