The "V-DAY" sans a "V"

14th feb:

V-Day...the only day we wish we werent single... :)

..it was great fun....with my gurl gang obviously... :P...! we smashed black forest cake on each other...(the only thing left was the birthday song... hehe)... we were all in white and the whole college thought it was one crazy troop... :P... and the cake was yumm...!

15th feb:

today, our computer applications (we like callin it CAP) lecturer Sr. Sujata asked us our interpretations of LOVE...!

and i just said,"Love is more about YOU than ME".....i realli donno how...?

and another girl said,"Mam, love is that which is there between you and us" (girls behave soo well in front of the lecturer...hehe..)

....she read a cute article called "installing love"...and made a prayer for all of us...! twas reaal sweet...!

.......had a great time !!!

here are the V-day pics:

saw my caky face..!! :D

the peace ambassadors... hehe

the whole class...we just need an excuse to celebrate..... :)

Librans....
The biggest trouble with us is the hunger for balance...
balance in every walk of life....
sometimes it challenges the theory of "adjustment"...
because while we are looking for that perfectly balanced life...
we fail to convince ourselves to compromise....

I have a good set of friends in francis...i mean we are like this gang n all...and i thought they were pretty kool...but sometimes i think they have a different wavelength altogether... i appreciate that they are great on the academic front...(that is their "byheart" talent).. but i like people with a broader perspective for life.... ones who think like me... ones who are a good mix of extroverts and nerds....
....huh..! that'll make everything perfect...! nah..! look it from the other side.... god just wants me to taste all kinds... !
k... i need to break open myself... life's not about worrying about such petty things.... ! but you up there ... i assure that i'll achieve that balance one day... and you'll help me go 'bout it... done..

Expectations.... !
..ever wondered how directly or indirectly it deeply influences our lives..
..they exist in every relationship..

your parents ,your friends ,your teachers,your someone special,your siblings and you yourself .....
..thousands of expectations ....
and each time you fail to fulfill them...
things dont fall in place..

and each time you cross the borders of expectations
you are extraordinary ...!

think about it.... these things can sometimes lead you to what you wish to seek in life..
that special "something"...that "something" which makes it all complete.... !

DAV completes 25 years...!

5th january
Hyderabad
Hari Hara Kala Bhavan

yep it was the silver jublee celebrations of my school...and i must say it was extremely nostalgic...! i was really excited coz i saw my classmates after soo long ... but as usual they were "anjaan marofying"(behaving like strangers).. on the contrary my tenth batchmates were great fun...there was ram,anusha,snigdha,seema,venkat,raghav and a few more.. the programs were kinda dull but the best moment was obviously my award...(for your info it was for topping biotech in 12th boards..!) .. i felt awesome when we met Uma madam (our biotech teacher) and she was soo glad that she hugged us ... she was so good man..!


the whole of us sat in the last row and kept updating each other about the latest stuff happening in school... bah ! donno why venkat was being such a flirt..!(it kinda puts me off)...neway had great fun and an evening i will always count in the best moments of life...(only the award.. :D)

From Left Venkat,Ram,Sniggs,pushyami(behind sniggs),Anusha(busy with her fone) Manasa,Seema(look at her expression) and Raghav..and Iam taking the pic.. :D

accueillez 2008...! (welcome)

so here i am...back with a bang...fully charged up for this year...
its indeed a very happy new year..!!
I m really contented with life at this point...*touch wood*.. :)
the reasons
I m slowly picking up french...and i am so glad about it...i just love to learn the language..[thanx to vishnu mam]
I m single ...[it may sound silly...but i feel its a big reason for my happiness..]
I am surrounded by positive people...who dont allow me to feel low at any point..
I have gradually discovered the value of my parents...and i just want to say is that i love them more than anybody else...!
I love god for he makes every event [small or huge] so smooth...thank you
and finally I love my best friend apurva for being the greatest friend one can find and turning me into a truly opmistic human being..miss you yaar...!

a very happy new year to all...have a great time..!

ARTHASHASTRA

well..! Arthashastra's supposed to be the most lively inter-college fest hosted by St.Francis ...and indeed it was...! i never danced so madly before...(thanx to the DJ)... :D..!! here are the pics...and not to forget there were some marvellous eye candies... :P..!!

Chetan and Adonica...! both were like realli cute...!

there my classmates dancing to the tunes of DJ FALGUN...:D

honestly it was a little weird to see guys in our college...!! :P

sometimes its very painful to see people's sufferings...."why should they suffer..?" I question myself..... even if they have done good all through their life......!

It sometimes forces me ponder upon the concept of previous births and sins related to them.....it may be the case that these things said by our ancestors had some substance in it......! but Gen-X needs logic to everything ....we wants to question every thing that we feel is out of our limits....! yes, there are certain things which cannot be answered on a scientific basis....

why do we forget that we humans who think ourselves as the most supreme race are created by that power.....that power which can be felt at almost every single breath we take...the power without who's consent nothing can happen in this universe......the power which will some how make you bow and make you feel humble.....we are almost negligible in front of his omniscience ....believe in that power and I think we can derive ample will power to cope with all the thorns he places on our way of life...

"Our Father, Who art in heaven, Hallowed be Thy Name. Thy Kingdom come. Thy Will be done, on earth as it is in Heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us.And lead us not into temptation,but deliver us from evil. Amen."

Life's continuously teaching new things....! helping me to clear out the fog between deep truth and falsity...clearing up some perceptions about people ,I always had about them....I think I m being very saddistic off late....I m only picking up the negative aura from people...making my mind a store house of evil thoughts....No No...this is not me....this is not who I m ...this is not the person i thought i would grow up like...
I need a positive aura...to cleanse my mind from this growing negativity...!

No you cannot grip me like this...I will strive hard and find my way...The lord is with me...he will help me finding my way towards a happy mind ,a happy life....!

"Everything around me is beautiful till I see it to be...."

LIFE AFTER DEATH....

It was a little mistake I made,

And you took it away from me ,

It was my life,

the greatest boon of the lord.

You sold it like goods,

not a moment you thought

and you took it away from me.

you dragged me to the end,

I loved my life like any other,

you deprived me of living,

Just for that little mistake.

You ruined the life of my beloved,

the mother who brought me to existence,

you least cared for her battered heart,

you took me away from her.

Now I m just a name,

there are memories I left behind,

which flow with the tears of my beloved.

Do not forget you ruthless being,

that thou shall have to face the end too,

and then thou shall know

the value of human life.

This is a curse from a pained soul,

thou has taken a life,

and thou shall never die in peace...!

Its all in the name !!

....TRISHNANTA means end of a desire.....quite not applicable for human beings who are known for their infinite desires.....

Let me give you a little history about I got this name....

Well the story goes back to the time my mum was in college.... and she had a friend who used to write novels....and the speciality of her books were the names she gave to her characters .... and thats where mum saw this name....and she liked it soo much that she decided to keep it for me....!!!

I always get a lot of attention more because of my name than anything else...hehe!!!...and also comments like..."why such a long name?"...or "i never heard of that one..." or "where did u find this word from??"...and i provide them with all explanations...lol

As a kid I used correct people a hundred times to pronounce it right...and they finally surrendered by callling me by my pet names..(i have dozens....)

whenever I changed my schools I used to be worried not about adjusting, but whether they'll get my name or not...well, I heard lot of versions of name.....Treeshantaa...Treeshulaam..(that was like really funny...!!)...Trishaantii....lol...and many others....

But I felt great when finally they were at ease calling me and well pronouncing it right....!!!As far as my friends are concerned they prefer caling me trish..(they think its cool and chik..!!) and I dont mind at all....;P...

Ahh..!! well In francis thankfully people got my name easily...the lecturers know me...and they dont cutshort my name for their convinience...hehe....

But I genuinely love my name.....and I know it will always set me apart....!!

DURGA PUJA ....

Durga puja is undoubtedly the most awaited and the biggest annual festivity amongst bengalis.....It is a week long celebration.....which includes ah..!! good food...meeting old family friends and obviously having a hell lot of fun....!

....this year the festivity was not as good as last year but still quite memorable....here are some pics...

tats me and Anesha didi(a close family friend)...and there's the Puja in the background


The Murti of Goddess Durga is the main attraction of the festivity.....

Now thats a traditional dance done with an earthen pot

and the drums in the background mark the beginning of the festival...

The best durga puja obviously happens in Kolkata....and each place the decoration is done with a theme.....so if u ever happen to be in Kolkata during the puja then nothing will please your eyes more than the festivity itself... and on that note

WISH YOU ALL A VERY HAPPY DUSSHERA ....

journey till date !

well...the journey of my blog has had a lot of crests and troughs .....but it has been a great one indeed.....!
I do not clearly remember how it all started...I mean how I started writing....!!! yes i did maintain a diary for a couple of years ....and i still have them wid me....!! they seem to be extremely funny now...the mention of my friends, my teenie-weenie crushes....and some things which seem to be soo kiddish...!! cant help but laugh at them.....
And then there was this incident which just turned my life upside down......probably then the emotional,thoughtful writer in me arose.....there were several things i kept writing ....it was definitely addictive yet enjoyable.....may be i found writing as a medium to exhale out so many things i held within....and i did not know what to do with all that I had penned down.....I used to show my poems to my friends....and felt great when i realised that there are some with whom i can share the "deep dark secrets" of my life....
then i saw arjun's blog which made me feel....."this is what i really need"......just cant believe i wrote almost 38 posts.....half of them are nonsense...but some very special and extremely close to my heart......
certain posts i wrote with utmost passion....some with great imagination.....and all I needed was a sense of peace , a satisfaction and it helped me connect with myself......I voiced my thoughts... and there were certain places i succeeded....and i felt rid of a burden...sighed with relief.....

sometimes just hit my head against the walls thinking what would be the next post about...(and unfortunately the walls collapsed...heee..!!).... sad jokes apart

......I still remember i had to go out somewhere and there was this idea for a post in my mind ....and I actually did not move from my place till i finished writing it all....!!! (i wish i had the same passion for my buks..!! i would have topped my class..haha..!!)

I tried not to be repetitive.....!! adding a little bit of spice and a little bit of me in each one of them..... sometimes i had great ideas but messed it up when i actually finalised them...
one of my favourite post is the one I wrote about hypocrisy...i thought it came out well....then there was also this one in which i mentioned my dream guy...that was quite gud i felt....


......Aha..!! dont think this is a farewell post. nah..!! this was just a rewind of "A journey to my world".....
