Life!

Life is not all about eating gol-gappas or wai-wai..! Its not just about having fun..doing vella-panti or being with friends all the time! One needs to do something constructive in life as well.
Attended a public speaking competition in my college today. I love my college!
Terrorism, Indian culture, Society, being urself, underdeveloped countries, copenhagen summit 2009, men and women..
Several interesting topics were discussed and looked at from one's point of view.

18 suicides in 20 days in Mumbai, meaning of the word appraise - evaluate, judge..
Residents of India knowing the name of the wife of the US President, Barack Obama ~ Michelle obama..and NOT knowing the husband's name of Mrs. Pratibha Patil..!!! ~ Mr. Devisingh Ransingh Shekhawat.

Clark Kent ~ Superman.
Only when he has powers, everyone knows that he is SUPERMAN. Otherwise, he is nobody!
There were people asked about who is the current 'President' of india..and some college students answered Dr. Manmohan Singh!!! There were some who replied with a confident smile on their face, "Prime Minister Dr. Manmohan Singh"..!!!
4 out of 50 people could answer who the vice-president of India is.
The answer being Mohammad Hamid Ansari!
There are people..if you ask them..who is the President of Pakistan?
There will be answers like Pervez Musharraf. There will be few who would say Asif Ali Zardari.
Today's day in college has moved me quite a lot. I feel good about the fact that one is reminded of all such topics in life..as there are those who live in their own world..n not bother about anything around..and a quote comes to my mind..'dust to dust returneth'.

And I love this one ~ "Some say the World will end in Fire, Some say in Ice. From what I've tasted of Desire I hold with Those who favour Fire. But If I had to perish twice,
I think I would know enough of Hate to say that for Destruction,
Ice would also be great and would Suffice."
