Ripples on the ocean

Prologue: This series of posts is for people who would like to know why Telangana is being demanded for. This post is for people who would like to know the truth. For every one else, take your mouse pointer to the top-right corner of your screen and left click there (top-left for users of Mac OS) . That is your road to a hell lot of bliss, if we go by the saying 'Ignorance is bliss'. Chapter 1: The History A majority of India got its independence on the 15th of August 1947. The Hyderabad state was still under the rule of the Nizam, Osman Ali Khan, Asaf Jah VII . After the military offensive of the Indian army, code named Operation Polo , the state was freed from the monarchy on the 18th of September 1948. And thus was formed the Indian state of Hyderabad. The first chief minister of Hyderabad was Mr. Mullath Kadingi Vellodi Menon, from 1950 to 1952. The first (and last) elected chief minister of the Hyderabad state was Mr. Pullamraju 'Burgula' Ramakrishna,

Oh my fingertips are so much itching to blog. But you see, I'm tied down. I am just waiting for the opportune moment, to pounce on this rich text editor - as soon as the 30th of November, my CAT online test date, surpasses. In my previous post I told you guyls (not a typo) , among other things, how difficult i found choosing what to blog about. And the long hours of thought I put into this subject lead me to many topics and I made no mistake this time, immediately noted them down in my "tasks" in Gmail. Now whenever I open it, I see those letters wobbling around vibrating with a high frequency as if urging me to pick them to blog about. But as i said, I'm tied down.. By Quant, DI and last but not the least, Verbal(arrgghh). All those who empathize with me, I appreciate it.. and All the best to everyone of you who is attempting CAT this year. I have 3 days to go. Presently? I am working around with the exercises(I had to check the spelling of that) in Quant, then I&#

Hey blog!! [Guilt..Guilt..Guilt..] Blog : So there is a guy who wants to, likes to, plans to blog... 1st post.. Nov 28th 2008 2nd post.. Nov 28th 2008 (Ahem...) 3rd post.. Oct 25th 2009 Now there a serious defect in the chronology presented above.. Things cant go on like this.. can they? Its an aweful thing to keep ur blog drought-prone like this. Me: But wait a sec.. will I take all this bashing or do i have something in my defense? Hmm.. ya I do.. but is it something worth mentioning even? Lemme think.... .. .. . . Hey ppl!! [Guilt..Guilt..Guilt] Phew!! I need your help 'round here. Is it just me or is it common to have a fear of posting crap on one's blog? U see.. my blog is angry with me. But it doesn't understand that all this silence was for its own good. I wanted to keep the content of the blog substantial and worth reading and didn't want to stuff it up with useless posts. Actually i was afraid.. afraid of posting something not up to the standards i

All right.. for those who don't know, I'm a movie buff and I love watching movies as a technician rather than an audience. So when it came down to the point where i had to decide what to blog about, one of the first things that came to my mind was to discuss about a movie. Which one? There wasn't much doubt on that front.. Memento is an instant winner when it comes to thought-provoking cinema. Why I love the movie so much, must be obvious to those who watched the movie (for those who didn't, please do watch the movie before reading this post), but there is something more to it -- I strongly relate to what i think the director wants to convey and i not only relate to, but strongly believe it too and i think that it was the best way the director could have conveyed the message. First things first-- 'Memento means something which reminds you of the past', and that is what the movie highlights-- how important the abstract concept of memory i

hey folks!! So I'm back.. after the long exile.. What I'll be blogging will basically be something I feel should be shared, something to ponder about or in some cases , just something on my mind. I will try not to make the text too flowery nor will i make an effort to have the whole post preplanned and organized, which may lead to errors or slight shabbiness, i would prefer naturality (it should have been naturalism, but naturality came to me naturally :| .... ) to beauty. Feel free to respond, cause i love to know how others think. hmmm... so let's start off.
