moms are the best thing in the world !

We shout at her, we make fun of her, we hurt her, but still she never ever gives up on us...
The first person whom we see when we open our eyes for the first time is her ... The first time we smile is in front of her...The first time we cry is in front of her...The first time we walk is in front of her... The first time we dance is in front of her..The first time we run is in front of her...The first time we shout is at her...The first person with whom we play is her...and the most important one... The first time we talk is to her and the first word that comes out is "ma" ...SHE is the only reason for our big firsts in life...

Her heart beats for us... she has no expectations from us what so ever... but still she is always there for and with us....

    School days


I am sure most of us were least interested to go to school...We just had to go to the class , sit and listen to the teachers and study well with no responsibilities apart from scoring good marks :P...
She sacrifices her happiness, her career, her time just to make us happy by buying us all the fancy stuff, by cooking  delicious food, by taking us out every month...
When we come back home depressed, she cracks jokes which brings a smile on our face...
SHE takes care of our daily needs be it in terms of emotions or other materialistic things..
We fall , we hurt ourselves and she will have tears in her eyes...that is the emotional bonding we share with her...She is the only one who genuinely cares about us...Sometimes we shout at her for not getting us everything we want, but we never realize the intention behind it... it is just because , she teaches us not to be greedy in life... She forces us to study just because she wants us to be independent in life...

College Days

 This is a phase of life when we were neither kids nor adults... we were teenagers...A phase where we meet so many people and some of them turn out to be the closest pals. Without them we feel lonely, but we never realize that SHE is always there for us... We go through a lot of emotional stress due to exams, competitions, but she never loses faith in us...We shout at her for no reason yet she comes back and asks what is the matter...SHE makes sure that everything is fine and consistently motivates us... SHE takes our success as hers, SHE takes our failure as hers... but never gives up...

Small incidents like SHE coming and feeding us when we don't feel like eating... SHE secretly giving us pocket money without telling dad, SHE giving us that EXTRA freedom .... is what goes unnoticed...SHE prays for our well being and not her's...SHE is not selfish, greedy,egoistic...

SHE is the reason for our existence, even now when we sneeze , we call out her name "ma" unintentionally...
when we feel sad we go and cry on her shoulders, and the most beautiful thing is, irrespective of our age, she still considers us a new born baby...

SHE is the BEST in the whole world and nobody can replace her...
Now its our turn to take care of her like a small baby without any expectations and always be with her for life.
SHE is a part of US...WE are because of HER...

Side Effects Of A Gold Medal !!!!!

" This blog is not to praise myself nor demean others who don't have a GOLD MEDAL.This blog is just to share my experience I have had with people after getting a gold medal in Engineering."
        A big round of applause to Manasi MR for getting a gold medal for topping the university for her branch ,I still remember this day "Jan 08th 2010", when I was felicitated by the VTU chairman and was awarded a gold medal for topping in my branch. Indeed, it was a great moment, a special moment which cannot be put in words. This was the greatest achievement of my life and the result of my hard work and perseverance. It took days for me to sink in the thought of being a gold medalist.
       As days passed by, I realized the side effects of being a gold medalist.
July 2009, was when our results were announced and my lecturers were expecting a gold medal.

       I have come accross the most weird moments after getting a gold medal.

 1) It is close to impossible to get a job, if you are not placed

       I was at home with no job close to 6 months.I was an average student.Whenever I used to go for giving any interview, I had to face rejection. I had no clue why I was getting rejected. I tried applying for companies which worked on core industry for lesser salary ( 5K per month ), but still had no luck !
One day, I just took time off and thought as to why I was getting rejected even after doing so well in the interviews.
       Next day there was an interview with one small core company.The HR asked me " what guarantee will you give us that you won't leave the company? ". I was stunned by her question which made me realize that people don't believe that a gold medalist also can work for 5k salary per month and that the company didn't want to take risk by hiring me !

 2) We are considered nerds all the time

       After I got a job at Oracle, I started meeting new people, making new friends. Often I was asked this question " what do you do on weekends? " and even before I could answer, people used to speculate and say " dude she sits and studies on weekends!"

      Having a gold medal does not mean that a person is always into books. He/She has a life apart from books.

 3) Dude she listens to english music and all !

      This was infact the most weird comment ever !
     What the hell has english songs got to do with a Gold Medal?!
      When I used to talk about recent releases , people used to ask me " You listen to english music? You watch TV?! "

         I am not an alien, I am a simple, average human being who likes watching TV, likes listening to music, loves singing and dancing, loves playing all kinds of sports, more importantly believes in living life to the fullest !

 4) Dude ! she cannot marry  a normal person

    If I am a gold medalist , I don't expect my guy also to be a gold medalist.
    Getting a gold medal is not a big deal at all ! Anybody can work hard for it and get it !
    I am normal and would want to marry a normal person only !
    Even before me rejecting the guy, the guy might reject me because of my gold medal.. You never know !

      Any person who gets a gold medal is not an alien but a human being. He/She has a life apart from books. They can be fun loving, need not be serious and nerd at all !

    HOPE this opens few of my friend's eyes and they treat me normally ! :P
