My Vows ;)

Do you professor, take me to be your (L)awful student, to teach and to train, in theories and practicals, through boring lectures and arrears, through mockery and derision, through sporadic assignments and attendance, through bunking and flunking, through rain and measles, till a job or higher studies do us apart?

Ex.1 - Patchy Guns!

Woes of Arsenal
Aim :
  • To stay consistent.(in winning not losing!)
  • To hold on to Cesc.
  • Not to have debts.


Apparatus Required :
  • Dubai Owners and their Oil-sodden money
  • Few Experienced players (not chinna chinna pasanga)


Formula In Use :
  • Buying teenagers-latest being a 14 yr old! (The kid needs education and porn! not football and injuries!)
  • Turn(or try to) them into professional players and let go to other clubs when they are experienced enough to buy new youngsters.Its a loop thing.
  • Arsenal=youth-experience+youth+skills+youth-consistency+youth...


Description :
  • Signed veteran(really?) "own goal" fame Mikael Silvestre.
  • Lost to Aston Villa,M.city, Hull and drew with Tottenham,Stoke.
  • Out of Carling cup.
  • Wins against ManU and Chelsea.
  • Wenger's vaika thagararu with Gallas.
  • Not even a silver tumbler for 3 yrs now.
  • Rosicky,Diaby,Walcott,Eduardo injured!
  • Latest-Fans not supportive
  • Longtime problem-Finance.


Procedure/Solution :


  • Change strategy, mentality, formation(something like better zone defense, offside traps.. fifa 09 ofcourse ;))
  • Get a good striker.. Not someone like Bendtner or Adebayor
  • Buy experienced players
  • Buy wealthy owners or let them buy you.
  • Get physical enough to fend off injuries(6 packs maybe?)
  • Cheerleaders! ;) (Ask Dr.Mallya for the chicks' whereabouts)
  • Free Pizzas for Fans.. (Now go Arsenal!)
  • Injure SAF,Gerrard and Lampard.
  • Blackmail the Refree(Bribing is another lil problem for Ars)
  • Buy Captain Tsubasa or Captain Vijayakanth.


Comments :


2004 : Chelsea : "Do you want us to get a stadium for you?"
Arsenal :"Do you want us to get the trophy for you?"


2005 : Arsenal, ManU : "Chelsea dint deserve to win the EPL"
Mourinho : "A B C D.. "


2006 : Arsenal : "We will win the Champions league"
Barca : He he he he..


2007 : Arsenal : "Buhbye Henry" Bye trophies.


2008 : Arsenal : "We are gonna buy a 12yr old for the club's future and also we hve booked a new born of a former legend superstar footballer"
Fans : "**** future plans. Worry abt the present!!"

LHS:

Result :


Thus by implementing the possible solutions and suggestions, Arsenal were still found to finish below Manchester United. :P

Revelations out of Sickness

-The world is not the same as it always seems.

-No one likes to answer questions at tat time, but tats wat they are asked to do.
-"The Machinist" is not the movie to watch when you are bored. Well don't watch it anytime.
-No matter how less sick u are, an amateur nurse could make u look worse.
-Parents turn hysterical while caring for their wards.
-The size of the needle doesn't matter, everything pains.
-With the diet i was having b4, this came a lil late in fact. I should hve been sick ages ago.
-Fruit juices are good for health, but without ice they suck.
-F.R.I.E.N.D.S(not the sitcom!) would seem either extremely considerate or apparently non-existent.
-Everything that happens seems ostensible.

W.r.t, the recent ignominy at the department, we were supposed to prove ourselves and we couldn't have done it any worse. A skit not even worth mentioning, A dance that made even a zealous crowd boo(made a fool of myself :( ) and A variety event that ended in a contoversy thanks to a battery-low laptop and
co-ordination
.


There were a few (in R.Raja's words) "sitting moments of success" - the Ad-zap coup, the singing event and some awe-struck dancing by the 'other side' - Ms.Esp. :) The 11 hr fest was a rarity taking place and was a wonder to watch. The theme was to gel the inmates of the d'ment together. Errr.. Things only got worse for us i guess.
A bad day for the Merlions.
A better day for III-B :)

A tale of 5 Cities

Been leading a nomadic life for the past few days..


From the Frosty Breeze of the Nilgris,
To the Upbeat streets of Coimbatore,
Under the Scorching MADurai sun,
Thro the Zesty Zephyrous Courtallam,
Till the Voguish Singara Chennai..


Twas One heck of a week! :)

Washed Away!

8.30 pm.


My cell's illumination shone brightly in the dark street(courtesy of the third powercut for the day) It was a breezy night and the streets were being windswept by a giant invisible broom. Even an infant could have told it was going to rain. The aroma of the wet earth was in the air already. I was feeling cold - both inside and on the outside. The pre-monsoon season has been good this year, restraining people indoors and even making Madurai look tempestuous.


It slowly started showering on me and i was nowhere near my destination. The shower turned into a stormy downpour and people were running amok to shop entrances and houses where the sunshades and lintels served as shelter. A sudden forlornness creeps in as the cold weather surrounded me. Memories staging a resurgence. Reminescence. As i stood there drenched from head to toe, clutching my packet of lays, not wanting to go, wondering perhaps the rain had washed it all away..


Splash!

The Kismat Konnection



I ll remember the year two double O six for a lot of reasons, with my school-life exploits taking center stage. It was just the beginning of the academic year and everyone was deftly working to get into Anna or PSG. Students started going to Tuition centers en masse, some of which had pupils even more than Schools! There was also this parent-pressure, who expect their offspring to either become a State first or atleast a School first! My initial 12th grade life was slightly sabotaged by these effects too but i still managed to stick to the routine School-home-gaming-tution-Orkut-gaming-sleep-school everyday and occasional inter-school extravaganzas made sure we were living life as it was meant to be.


After about 5 months of sitting through boring lectures, irksome cycle tests and sunday special classes(for entrance exams which never transpired), one fine evening i started homewards after barely staying awake through Ms.Archana's P6 class. (Does she know the subject in detail or is she one of those teachers faking it out there like she knew.. I never found that out till the end.. maybe i should have asked her favourite student ;) )


Anyways, Vishal agreed to give me a lift in his Dad's Innova on his way home. I was seated right behind the driver and Riaz, Natraj hopped in beside me. We had Pepsi at Raj's(still in our uniforms) and were cursing life now tat LOSA was over and QUEST was out of bounds as we had our public practicals. We started moving and then the suddenly out of the corner, Princi's Bolero swiftly took a turn. Already being warned umpteen number of times not to go around in groups(especially in uniforms!) Gabbling and Gossiping, which might be a disturbance to the residences, thereby endangering the school's reputation, we were hoping out of hope that she hadn't seen us.


The next day.. As Mr.KRG was on another of his students-recruiting speech for his private tuition. "I ll finish the portion by September End ma"
Its already October sir! and we are surely not gonna finish before another month!


Word came that the princi is coming in her usual rounds pausing then and there to shout at staffs/students and to give away the recent cycle test papers. She walked into my class as i desperately tried to stay out of sight.
Uh oh! too late.



"Vishnu.. come here for a moment please"
What now.
I moved to the center of the class and everyone was looking at me as if i had just been sentenced to Azkaban. "How much did you score in your last cycle test?"
Err... 85.. no.. 79.. no.. "71 Madam" squeaked Mr.KRG.
Ahh yes that i got bored of writing and finished it in a haste.
"Hmmm if you go around driving Big cars with your friends everyone how do u expect to score high?" the principal bellowed at me.
Me? driving? What the ****?


"Havent i already warned you for driving Vehicles?! Werent you driving on the wrong side of the lane once directley towards my car?!?! "
Ah that was 10th grade and Again I wasnt driving! Now the whole teaching team had entered the class. "See Banu, how we are striving hard to produce good results for the School and Parents and people like this make all our efforts go in vain.", the Princi criticized to Mrs.Banu, my XII class incharge. "Hmmm i even saw him once getting into a Speeding train maam and he is always talking and is highly impish in class" added Mrs.Jayshree, who has never handled a single class for me.
The train was just moving!


"Yesssu Maam he iss highlly talkingg in myy class tooo vu" complained Mrs.Lalli, my maths proffy.
Errrr ok this is true. But who doesnt speak in her class!

After accusing me as the most arrogant, not so good, headstrong, sardonic, sarcastic student she had ever come across in her life,
I tried to squeeze in a "Sorry Maam" she wasn't there for it anyways..
"No! thats it Vishnu , you will have to bring your parents to come and meet me. No other go?!? this can't continue"
What is going on to continue..
"Send a letter to his parents informing them about this issue. Cos this had to be stopped. He is a good student in acads and one such thing could spoil the whole career. they just dont realise it.. blah blah blah"
And i got this by mail the next day.
Dear Parent,
We wish to inform you that after a continuous assessment on the work done by your child with guidance and motivation givn by the teachers and strict supervision by the co-ordinators your son Vishnu Gowthem.T of Class XII-C still falls behind the class in the following areas..

1.Disobedient.


With the above mentioned setback there is a deterioration in the scores and we are in a difficult position to assure you of his academic progress. blah blah


We request you, parents to look seriously into your child's work and visit the school on the third saturday of each month to monitor the work done by your ward.


We earnestly look forward to your co-operation in this regard.



Senior Principal.

Inishials

4th grade :
Boy1 : Aiii boy tats the tall Arun boy.
Boy2 : hmmm no boy, its B.Arun, meees even scolded him during maths class la?


10th grade :
Student1 : Can u please give this to Arun?
Student2 : which one? The Volleyball Arun or K.Arun?


College :

?2: Which Arun da? C.Arun ah , illa ******(Some member of the opposite sex or some fad word) Arun ah?


People have always differentiated those with common names in their own way. Perhaps Initials are the more permanent ways of differentiating them. Initials. Now i have always had trouble with initials, either mixing them up or missing them out and consequently causing confusion around. Especially with Saurashtrians, North Indians( or Any chappathi eating clan) those who have a string of alphabets starting from one for the family name and the others for dad's name, dad's dad's name and stuff. Phew!


If people had initials based on what they do or what they are..
My list of People and their initials (or rather what they ought to be)

T.R.Simbhu - Totally Raunchy Simbhu (Poor 9Thara!)
M.Jackson - Morphed Jackson(Its a man, No! Its a woman, No! Its M.Jackson)


M.S.Dhoni - Mosquito Swatting Dhoni
MNM(Eminem) - Music with No Melodies
S.A.Ferguson - Splendid Administrator Ferguson
B.Spears - Bald Spears


Laloo.P.Yadav - Laloo Pervert Yadav (2 sons and 7 daughters!)

21 July 2008

Beijing Huan Ying Ni..

,S1,135,610,700
And counting.. ;) (India's population estimate as on July 20th)


Still our chances of winning a Olympic medal seems a distant likelihood. The best individual Indian performance to date, has been the lone silver medal by Rathore at Athens 04. Except for Hockey, Sports itself is a matter of concern in the second most populous country.


A cricket team that has a huge fan following and requires a foreign coach and still loses.
Tennis - One in the top 100?
F1 - A stage for Narain's futile attempts.
Soccer - Do u know an Indian football player besides Baichung Bhutia?!?
Basketball, Baseball, etc.. - Errrrrr...
For all of the "human resources" that India has, shouldn't it be topping the charts?


This topic has been the mainstay for punch dialogues in movies, election campaigns, etc.. that is what they all say, don't they.. "Y hasn't India won a single individual gold medal in the Olympics?? Ponder."


Well i say, Enough of pondering and consequently wondering over the reason for our dismal performance in the past. Its high time that we did something about it, to pull off a feat, that is deservedly ours. In other words, "Yaaravadhu ethavathu panungalaen da!!"


**The government having cogitated on this, in a bid to solve the issue, hikes up the petrol price (ethukku da ippo kootineenga?!?) and decides to send our screen starlets to Beijing!**


List of the final competitors for Beijing 08 from India..


1. Shooting, Archery - Captain Vijayakanth, who has had several real-time life saving combats, is chosen for this category. This should explain it all, showing his relationship with guns and bullets and why shooting at Olympics 08 should be just another day at the office..


2. Volleyball - Rajnikanth and Madhavan.. The superstar's heroics with the ball at Baba was an occasion that was both remarkable and memorable. And that is also the precise reason he is chosen for this. He showed us his amazing control of the ball, defying Newton's laws, unbelievable stamina, the force with which the ball hits the opponents and the style with which he does all this simply makes us go - What a man!
Madhavan as there is no place for cricket (Priyamana Thozhi) in Olympics, could play his team member, for he has been caught running with the volleyball in his hand, in several song sequences (mudhan mudhalai, mobila.. ) but has never been reported playing!!


3. Water Polo - Munna, Jiju, Krishna, Bob , Mani and their respective girlfriends of the "Boys", will form the Water polo Men's and Women's team for their "dating" performance, but will not play against each other!


4. Athletics - The track and field events can be single-handedly taken care of a Ilayathalapathy Vijay, for
  • He can run extremely fast and hop into a running Electric train (Hurdles)
  • Even while running at the end of the pack, he can finish first in 5 secs. (Sprint races) but he is warned his opponents wont be chunky fatsos as Sreeman in ATM.
  • He can jump 150 m (which should be sure enough for Long jump and even Triple jump if he started it after jumpin at the same spot twice) from the top of a building to a nearby railway bridge.
  • He can jump taller than a building from an underground drainage system (High jump)
He is faster than fastest, Quicker than quickest. ;) (CARS Bit)
and he will be joined by Murali and Vadivelu for Pole vault. Those 7 ft giants who have suffered defeat in old Rajni movies could try their hand at Javelin throw or Discus throw..


5. Hockey - Napoleon.. This is a unanimous decision by the board, as Mr.Napoleon has been using a metal hockey stick (Aruvaal) in most of his movies, so all he has to do is replace it with a wooden one.


6. Judo, Taekwondo - Arjun & Vishal. It shouldn't be that difficult to both of them, especially with Super Subburayan and Peter Hein as their coaches.


7. Weightlifting - Sarathkumar. If he can lift Namitha off his back with just one hand on the ground, he can lift anything standing upright.


8. BADminton - As there is no mixed doubles category for Tennis(nalla vela Sania thapicha!) at the Olympics, Simbhu should be a bit low on confidence. His dad, the kollywood King Kong feels that the mixed doubles Badminton section would satisfy his neeeeds.


9. Football - Surya , Tarun, Sibiraj. For they have been able to pull of bicycle kicks with ultimate ease.. And Mr.Surya no dancing on the field with Bhoomika, the same goes for you too Mr.Tarun No aatam pottufying with Shreya and Trisha..


10. Cycling - Several actors can do this but still we had to give it to Jayam Ravi for driving his cycle with perfect balance on top of the compound wall in his debut movie.


11. Diving - Jeeva should be able to do this stuff, for his Dishyoom stuntman role and he could also try his hand at men's gymnastics for his one-leg balancing act in Raam.


12. Fencing - Ajit will have to do car-racing later and can now concentrate on his Fencing skills as he did in Billa, but not with Nayanthara and can play some real opponents.


13. Eve's Section - Namma ooru actresses are well capable of taking care of all the events for the fairer sex. Shreya for Gymnastics, but it will take a large effort to convince her not to wear low-waist jeans. Nami and Ramba will be the swimming mermaids.


14. Other sports - All the other sports can be taken care of the Ulaga Nayagan, Kamal Hassan and his 10 Avatars.


And last but not least, S.J.Surya will be the referee for his New's Whistle scene ;)

There are 10 types of people in this world :
1.Those who understand Binary and
2.Those who don't understand Binary.

We were asked to decide on the logo too, which after choosing the tagline, was a cinch. Windows, Linux , Apple, and a lot of other (dream company ;) ) logos were borrowed for thought, but we finally rested on a simple, yet more meaningful insignia..
