The Unemployment Continues ...

Classes haven't started in full swing, nor have we got the books for this semester and neither have the mood to watch movies.. not to mention that we have left gaming long long ago – that leaves us, especially me with little options for whiling away my time! Also, I feel quite sleepy in the evenings to go through the ordeal of improving my vocabulary. Not to mention the hopeless speed we are victims to in the name of 'Wi-Fi'.. Even a simple and no-extra frills site like blogger.com tests the virtues of patience and persistence ! And its best if one doesn't keep his hopes of 'orkutting' alive.. few brave souls(count me in) have the courage to tunnel through the blocks imposed by the “@#$%*!” management. Orkutting here in this hostel requires the patience of a spider, which weaves its web and waits for the prey all-day long.. analogous to that we here have to wait for those wee hours of morning or the dark hours of midnight when the traffic is low and then finally we can proceed to make our kill. Not to mention the R&D(Research & Development) thats involved in this addictive passion, which involves being aware of the latest techniques, tips and tricks to pass through the blocks by the management, but also testing their effectiveness and efficiency in theses hostile conditions. Doesn't it seem that mere surfing could also be an adventure ? Wish I had a better figment of imagination.. pity you guys for reading this crap and expecting something interesting out of it ! Some suggestions would definitely be welcome..

Meanwhile, I'm currently in a dilemma regarding which of the management preparatory institutes would be most apt for me. One presents an overall attractive package, another claims its USP(Unique Selling Proposition.. for those who are blissfully ignorant) is that it can afford special attention to each of its students as they have lesser no. of students per batch. The third boasts of a national reputation and a weekly test culture of good credibility. Right now, at this moment my mind is pointing to the third option, but its not final yet. One thing is assuring, none of my decisions is going to be very right and neither can prove to be very wrong.

Been witness to another blatant lift-off by b'wood – Partner. An out and out copy of the Will Smith starer, The Hitch – duly Indianized with spoofs of other films, lots of comedy, a stupidly placed supersonic missile supposedly designed by a 8-9 year old kid and the inevitable b'wood trademark – song & dance. Nevertheless, putting the copyright issues apart the flick was entertaining – thanks to David Dhawan who knows how to tickle the funny bones of the Indian masses. Govinda was a treat to watch after a long time. Rajpal Yadav's comic timing demands special mention. Lara Dutta's new hair-do is refreshing. Katrina, needless to say is stunning as ever. Salman fits in fine with his part.

The 13^th Indian President, the first female ever to be appointed to the highest office in the country, has vowed to take steps against the rampant female infanticide prevalent in many parts of the country. The skewed sex ratio of 927 females to 1000 males is abysmally low compared to the world average of 1050 females per 1000 males. Meanwhile, another survey study pegs India at near to the bottom of the world's alcohol consumers. Is that a thing to rejoice or be ashamed of ? I am not sure what the tone of the report indicated. The writer seemed a little distressed perhaps at the feeling that his country is placed 150^th in terms of per capita liquor consumption. I am least bothered anyway...
