on a study break...

Saturday, January 16, 2010

It was quiet fascinating experience of my life and last year writing to all my dear friend on this site and getting responses in my mail box. And my class XIIth board is coming, But the whole last year has passed and i just had read all the course book twice or thrice and nothing else, specially in chemistry and physics i didn't 'rattaficated' any thing, i did learn just concepts the whole year but after giving out preboard exams i got to understand that, that is not gonna fetch marks for me. So a bad news for all, for the preparation of board exams i am going on a study break from the internet in all forms - mobile, orkut, facebook, twitter ,and blogging too! I'll return on 25th of march at three (3) PM (IST) till 6 PM . In the mean time i'll not reply you on either blog, mail, sms or letters. It is a hard time for me facing the reality that only board exams are going to decide my future. So pray for me and take care. bye.

superstions in the science age

Wednesday, January 6, 2010

Today while coming home on the road in the morning a black cat crossed my way! Now you would be thinking that because of it this day may not be lucky for me, as it is believed in India,But Alas! while the cat crossed my way step step forward i found a 500 rupee note!!...so was the day really unlucky? In India the superstition is so much widespread that our scientists go to Ganges after discovery of water on the moon! we generally believe more on on the pundits than anyone for fixing the dates of marriage. In my opinion we should believe more on weather department because one day my dad's friend was to marry, pundit fixed a date , and on the same day it rained cats and dogs! so pundit was called and he came with another argument - the groom was used to eat in the large vessels (like cooking crockery) so due to this it rained so much!, every one was satisfied and pundit was paid. - Tariq abdullah
