How situations affect your life

It was the last-to-last weekend, when i was going home(Delhi) by bus. I sat beside a person who looked young and better than other fellow passengers. We didn't talk to each other for quite some time. But when you are travelling alone, you don't have much to do and you chat with your fellow passengers. The same happened with me and we started talking. He was training in IMADehradun and going to his home Jaipur (coincidence !). He further told me he lived in MalviyaNagar (another coincidence !!). Of course, our houses didn't have to be same. So our chatting got noisier. we started comparing life in IIT and IMA. He told he was going on a reserved leave. He didn't tell me the reason that time.

Thanks! Mr Arjun Singh We are very grateful to you for making our higher educational institutes crippled. You'll be greatly rewarded with votes. US would be happy to see more Indians coming to their institutions for higher studies, taking them out of economic recession.

But we won't complain when you have your favourite reserved catego

What's so special about it ? Most of you won't find anything great.Even I was perplexed when today morning, one of my friends wished me belated Happy Anniversary. Anniversary ... what ? Yesterday was certainly not my birthday. And finishing the mid-term exams certainly does not qualify as an anniversary. Seeing my bewilderment, he asked me what i was doing that day the last year.(This is typical of IIT where people give you clues but not let out the answer until u have exhausted all your brain-power. Use ur brains, buddy!). I guessed it, right. And many of you might have too, so i remain mum as of now. Talking about yesterday, i had some great papers. On the other hand, i started this blog which reads My Life My Journey. Well a lot of things have happened in past few years and my life has moved through different roads with a number of turns and diversions. Till 2006, i was in a school in Jaipur. It was a nice school and i was getting a good coaching for IIT - JEE at a reput
Hi ! everyone those who i know and also those whom i don't know Blogging is the buzzword today. Some want to tell stories of their life while some simply write crap to bust their stress. i also wanted to share my feelings with the whole world not only whom i know but who live far away from me but can connect to my experiences. well ! not boring you, i start.... firstly, why my blog URL reads as it is? primarily due to unavailability of common URLs and secondly you might come to know after reading my posts. i chose to start this day since my mid-term exams ended today itself and i didn't have something great to do. for those who don't know me, this is my description: Name: The One (why? ... guess urself) College : IIT (yeah! i made it to IIT) Species: Homo Sapiens (officially) , unofficially UHLO (Unidentified Human Like Object) i.e. what my friends think of me , perhaps an alien ! and rest of it you'll come to know Well i won't say anything else in this post but
