So today we had our international issues exam.. and god forbid.. as usuall... all questions from outside syllabus... i guess from semester we need to study what is NOT THERE in the syllabus rather than studying what is there... not that i made much effort to study.. i knew the paper would be shit and i have to bull shit... so i didn't prepare much... here's a dose of my answers today.. (btw... plz pray i pass my exam)

US and USSR soldiers caught a cold when they were fighting.. so since they had cold they couldn't use guns.. instead they spread the disease by sneezing at each other. That's why it is called Cold War
2. Agra summit
Summit (slang for something) to do with Agra...
3. Hegemony
Hag-a-money. A hag is an old ugly woman with warts all over her face. When hags have money, they are called hegemony. In England they were called hag-a-money only but french changed it to hegemony with their ridiculous pronounciation.

Friends, Romans, Indians, Countrymen! Lend me your ears! World War II was faught in 1939 but since i wasn't born then, i'm very sorry to inform you that i do not have authentic details. And i only accept what i see. Since i do not have proof that these people have given correct information and the source is not authentic, i may not be able to attempt the answer. Thank you.

Anyway my so called current affairs paper was due yesterday... i sat the entire day in front of the computer, getting a tumor like headache... studyin ever single ISHOEEEEE my hod had asked us to.. and guess what... as usuall none of them came!
Anyway.. my paper had a lot of crosses and scratches coz i had to abandon my sarcasm and do some serious thinking.. anyway these are some of the answers i struck out in my paper.

1. What is 'Big Dog'?
It's a dog that's big? Canines suffer from 2 syndomes called 'dwarfism' and 'gigantism', like humans. Dwarfism is when the dogs are too small like poodles and gigantism is wen the dogs are extremely big like Great Dane. These dogs are called 'Big Dogs'. It is a slang that is usually used by kids to explain the size of a dog. It is also used by students to shout at some members of their staff. Sometimes the female gender of this word is also used.
2. TN govt's stand on cauvery issue?
Cauvery is a water body that flows from TN to Karnataka. Just because its called a water body does not mean it has a body. And one cannot stand on water body. They can either float or swim or drown. And as far as i know cauvery has no issues wit Tamil Nadu. So, this question is mundane and totally wrong. Please specify manner of stance.
3. Write short notes on LTTE.
I know LTTE is called Lankan Tigers of Tamil Eelam. But since i don't know anything else, I will be writing a thesis on another LTTE : Love Through Talking on Eenternet. This is basically because of youngsters taaaking on the eenternet. They faalings in the loves and later havings the runnings aways from the homes to marry. This because they wants the friandships and loveships with the strangers. It is spoiling the indian cultures.
Recently also my friend is fallings in the loves with one guy she meetings onlines. But when they meetings in persons she found that he was 23 years older than her and is the fathers of 3 childrens. Please give me suggestions how to console her!
4. Write notes on Hyde Act.
Ever since the dawn of civilization children and adults alike have been playing Hide and Seek. Keeping that in mind, since India and USA have been playing hide and seek in battling terror, they have come up with an act called HYDE ACT. This act will mandate and regulate the visionary game of hide and seek. And this has nothing to do with chocolate chips hiding inside a chocolate buiscuit.
1. The seeker must find the catcher within 2 months or there wil the penalty.
2. The hider must, at some point of time, give himself up if seeker cannot catch him. This is to make the game more interesting.
3. After giving himself up, the hider can escape again, if he wants to.
4. If hider hides second time, seeker should himself on the wall 10 times.
5. The name of the game is hide and seek. This act was called 'hyde' act because of numerology.
Anyway.. my paper had a lot of crosses and scratches coz i had to abandon my sarcasm and do some serious thinking.. anyway these are some of the answers i struck out in my paper.

I never told you....
Father, i wish to tell you today,
What i never told you before.
I only want you to listen to what i want to say,
Don't praise, don't argue, just listen and no more.
I remember those days when i was small,
You'd deck me up for school and leave me at the gate.
I'd walk away without a smile and your face would fall,
But you'd smile anyway consoling yourself that i was probably late.
When i grew older i was a handful,
I'd yell and shout and wish you wouldn't care.
But when i got home late at nights you were just thankful,
You didn't for once think what i was doing wasn't fair.
I'd be out for hours and when i'm home,
I wouldn't talk to you and rush into my room.
I'd spend days talking on the phone,
And wouldn't come to you when you asked me to, soon.
I know sometimes you had wished you could talk,
But i never cared and carried on with my life.
In the end, when life became a mess, you stood by me like a rock,
Now, guilt pierces me like a knife.
I know when you told me about things like drugs,
I would just nod and walk away.
I never thought you would need a hug,
You seemed so strong, i didn't see any reason to stay.
Now i know, father, what i have done,
And i live with the guilt that age brings on.
I wish i could make it all undone,
But it's all over, it's all gone.
Now Father, i wish to tell you today,
What i have never told you before.
I only want you to listen to what i want to say,
Don't praise, don't argue, just listen and no more.
I have never told you what i think of you,
I was too shy to let it go.
I think no one can get a father like you, dad, it's true,
Shh! I don't want to share you so don't let others know.
Why a mosquito is better than a fly
This is ridiculous but i'm writing it!
Because a mosquito can fly but a fly can't mosquito Some female mosquitos have cool names like 'Anopheles'. Sounds more like a greek goddess. Not that they spread malaria... but still.. Because mosquitoes give you an excuse not to go to work/college. "I was bitten by a mosquito and hence i got malaria and couldn't make it" They help when you want to slap someone *hint > maybe your boss*. SLAP! "Sir/Madam, i'm sorry but there was a deadly mosquito on your cheeks". Now, could you say the same for a fly? They are amazing alarm clocks.... suppose.. for example.. your dreaming about you coochi cooing with your favourite actor/actress and u suddenly hear a "BUUUUUUZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ!" near your ear, you jump back to reality only to realize that work began ten minutes ago! They are a good tennis partners. (with your fly/mosquito swatter) "There's the sweep shot. Oh an over-the-head shot" "Nice serve!". "GAME!" They are the best of friends when you are bored and have nothing to do. Play 'Swat the mosquito' with them They are always there for you! *wink* You can distinguish between male and female. Now, have you ever heard of a female anopheles fly? They are your food tester. If you see a mosquito on it, you know its bad!
Emergency Provisions
Well, i am gearing up for my constitution exam.... umm... actually no... my exam is in a day and i have 442 articles and 12 schedules (i'm copying this outta my reference book!) to study. I have barely started :(.... uh oh.... i have a lonnnnnnnnnnng night ahead of me.. well.. i did study one part of the subject... 'Emergency Provisions'. And this is exactly what i was doing/thinking to remember the answers (believe me i have very wierd methods to help me remember) when i was going through it :
The indian constitution provides for three unnatural situations:
1. The security of india or any part thereof is under threat due to war, external aggression or armed rebellion (security>>>watchman>>>old deaf man in my flat with unbuttoned blue shirt and navy blue pants that feebly hang on to his over sized waist>> battling with his stick against an army>> '300' style)
2. Failure of consitutional machinary in any state or any part of india thereof (machine>>a board called 'state' on it in very haphazard handwriting *much like mine*>>>it steams>> smoke coming out of it>>>'i'm sick' board hanging from it)
3. Financial status of india or any part thereof is theatened (very rich guy >>> with car and all>> jewellery hanging>>>cell phone in one hand>>>girl in the other>> with a devil and his fork breathing down his neck)
Explanation:
Original:
1. If the president is satisfied that the security of india or any part thereof is under threat due to war, external agression or armed rebellion, he can proclaim national emergency according to article 352. He can impose it even before the situation actually happens.
2. This move has to be approved by 2/3 of the parliament
3. If the parliament does not approve, the procamation ceases to exist
4. State emergency is called 'Presiden't Rule'
5. The president takes over the state
6. National Emergency suspends fundemental rights
7. Indira Gandhi declared emergency in 1975 saying "internal disturbances"
8. Financial emergency lasts for 2 months
9. Emergency provisions were taken from Germany
My style:
1. If i am satisfied that my stomach is under threat due to rumbling, grumbling and certain other noises, then i can open the fridge and look for snacks. I can even look for them before the situation arises, if i am satisfied the situation will arise.
2. This move has to be approved by my father (or he shouldn't be watching, which rarely happens)
3. If he does not approve, i retire back to my room (hungry!)
4. My father calls me 'You fool' :(
5. What is Angelina Jolie doing now?
6. Father finds novel inside my 'Indian Constitution' book and throws it off... cha... good things always come to an end :(
7. *Dreaming* 'Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kitten, bitter copper kettles and warm woolen mittens......'.... crap! I need to study...
8. Emergency situation coming up in 2 days!!
9. In case of emergency, please tear the following and take to the exam hall!
Words of Weird-dom
A few direct quotes of my Head of Department... pertaining only to me after i became the president of my college's current affairs club... oh man... i don't think i've ever regretted anything more that this!!! And soon u'll know why
On why i am the reason nobody in the class knew what was happening in pondicherry assembly
"Fortunately or unfortunately you are the president of current affairs club... and you do not know current affairs ma... how are you going to rectify this situation?"
On her secular, democratic, socialistic nature
"Anusha Parthasarathy, please stand up. What is your opinion on this issshooeee ma?"
"Ma, the light is glaring. I am not able to see you properly. Please come to the front and explain ma"
On my completely irrelevant answers to all her Koshtins *this is my escape tactic btw*
"Have i not made myself clear ma?"
*Claps hands* "Ok ma, i will explain" *brain switches off*
On her ever annoying class reviews
"Ok ma someone please review whatever i just taught you. Anusha Parthasarathy (zzZZZ *slap* WHAT?!?!?). Yes ma, tell me. Recap whatever i just spoke in class"
On my IRRRRRRRResponsible nature
"You have ashamed me ma. How can you be so irreeesssponsible? I never expected this from you ma. I am very UPPPPPPPPSET with you ma."
HOD: How can you just leave everything and go for shooting ma? Didn't i tell you to give me all the details? How can you be so irrresssponsible (Repeat)? You said you'll give and you went for shooting.
(I spiral into a flash back by 1 hr)
HOD: Anusha... unless you go for shooting everything is cancelled. You have to be responsible enough to handle both ma. You cannot say you won't go. It is your duty as the President of currreent affairs club.
(back to present)
Me: Ma'am, but you said...
HOD: You are very IRRESSSPONSSIBBLEE ma
Me: I cannot be in two places at the same time
HOD: Oh... so, what are you trying to communicate ma?
On her creativity:
"After 35 years of experience in marketing, advertising, journalism, public relations and corporate communication i can tell you ma this poster is not attractive. A poster should attract the eye ma, here i cannot even see anything! You should have white background with black letters in BOLD. And important dates should be in RED. That only will attract ma."
Me: Ma'am, i think we don't need a poster. We'll just take printouts in A4 sheets n send.
On why sponsors names shouldn't come on the certificates
"Ma he is very clever ma. A certificate is something to cherish. Don't you hold is close to your heart when you have won something? It should come from the college ma. Just because he gives you money you cannot become his slaves" "He is exploiting you ma. Even now, only i am standing on your side"
On my President-ship
"As the president shouldn't you be a role model ma? When your club inaugurated, i aksed you to make sure Hindu publishes it since you work there. But they didn't ma. Why? (But ma'am, Hindu has alot of other important things to do than lousy college club activites). I don't want excuses ma. You should have come up wit strategies to make sure they publish the article"
And there it is... My 10 mark detail answer :) with subheadings et all ... *wink*

Dear daddy,
I know you expect me to fail... i mean.. pass... but unfortunately... due to unavoidable circumstances i may have to inform you that your precious daughter may keep 3 arrears this semester... you see father... i wasn't born when they made the indian constitution.. so i couldn't really agree with freedom of expression since i had none in making the constitution... and because i did not have freedom of speech before my birth i have decided to shun the subject and take to reading spiritual books like Paulo Coelho... they give me 'freedom of mind'..
I'm sorry to inform you this but it is the current situation after in-depth analysis and research...
Love,
Misty

I wonder....
"Where did i go wrong, i lost a friend somewhere along in the bitterness..."
Thats a line from Fray's 'How to save a life' ..... my current song lowe... hahaha.. only prob is...the line is hitting me hard... why? Coz i'm wondering where i went wrong.... coz i lost a brother.... somewhere in the bitterness... what bitterness? Let me recap
I 'had' a cousin...I use the word had not because he's not alive... but because he refuses to be my brother now... and i've also disowned him... eventually...
I used to consider him my 'number 1 brother' when i was little... haha.. he was my fav then.. we used to b so close... back then he lived in calcutta and only came during the summer hols... but he always remembered my birthdays.. sent cards... his amazing handwriting that i was always jealous of... man.. those were the days....
The summer hols would b packed with fun... torture (For me!)... and everytime he left i'd be upset... waiting for the ensuing quarterly or half yearly hols when he would come again... to play wit him again... he threatened me to call him my best bro coz only then he'd talk to me... so i did... and now..... WHERE DID I GO WRONG?
He moved to chennai wen i was in ma 6th... him in his 7th... things were much better... he lived close by... and the two cousins i had grown up wit used to visit all the time... we were the 3 monkeys.. the 3 musketeers... whatever you could call it... we had amazing times together.. movies... moneyless loitering... ice cream treats... talking about random things... i spent every birthday with them... it was a ritual... if i'd gone off wit friends they'd pommel me wit hits... my birthdays were reserved for them... .
The many times i used to get so mad at him coz he always teased me... he could never shut up... at some point i thought he didn't like me... and somehow he just stuck on to me coz my other cousin did... and well.. coz he was destined to b my brother forever.. but now? WHERE DID I GO WRONG?
Then was me entering a very dangerous phase of teenage where i made random friends... they stood by me when they had to.. especially him.. he was being protective.. but i thot he was irritating... he tried to warn me.. i thot he was unfair.. he tried to be realistic.. i thought he was just being an idiot... he told me he knew from experience.. i thought he was lying.. i fought with him for the first time in my life....
It shocked the hell out of both me n him that i would fight with him over a random guy who was then a friend.... but i spoke a lot of words that i immediately regretted.. but bcoz of a lil ego i refused to apologise... i blamed him... for not understanding... for saying wrong things... for not standing by me bcoz he knew i was doing the wrong thing.. but i was the one who refused to understand... and that was my biggest mistake...
The other cousin tried to explain but not once did i listen.. but only then i learnt how he really felt about this sister who slapped him for tryin to help... i heard how much he respected me... how much he loved me... and guilt hit me like a huge boulder... i wanted to crawl under the earth and die....
i tried to apologise... he waved it off.. and came back again... but things were never the same again... we still hung out... we still went to movies... but he never interfered in my life again.. and i missed it... but i didn't think much..
The very next year.. he was embroiled in a very bad situation at home... i will not go into details... i wanted to help... but he refused to let me or anyone reach out to him... why? i will never know... he never told us what he was goin thru... and the three of us were supposedly so close.. why? i will never know... and that was when it began..
His ignorance... his utter disregard for me... his request to leave him alone and not be a part of his life... i tried to reason out wit him... but he wasn't ready to listen... just like i wasn't... a year ago...
All this was 4 years ago... the situation hasn't bettered...
He still doesn't talk... or say hi wen we meet on the road... eventually i had to let go... not because i wanted to... but because i had to since there was no point holding on to someone who wanted to run away... and someone who didn't want me to be a part of his life anymore.... I made myself dislike him... because i didn't want to miss someone who didn't miss me...
We live two roads apart.. we walk away wen we see each other.. no flicker of recognition in his eyes... no smile... none of those things we had shared ...
He looks at me as though he looks at a stranger... and sometimes... just sometimes... he looks a little longer than he should and i smile... he remembers....
I see he has changed... changed so much that it may not be possible to get back to being how it was again... i have also changed... and our lifestyles may not connect again... he may go away somewhere and i may never see him again... who knows..
But i'm yet to know why he stopped talking to me all of a sudden.... i'm yet to know if he still thinks of all those good times we had.. i'm yet to know if he misses the both of us he left behind... I complete my post with these 'well scripted lines'
"As he begins to raise his voice
You lower yours and grant him one last choice
Drive until you lose the road
Or break with the ones you've followed
He will do one of two things
He will admit to everything
Or he'll say he's just not the same
And you'll begin to wonder why you came
Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness"

I remember....
Today... after months of neglecting a lost friend.. i will find solace in writing again... i know i've been most irritating... coz i haven't really bothered to write much here for a long time... so i'll try filling up a lil more space today...
You must always remember... no matter how insignificant the matter is... today i will remember those small moments that sometimes, we forget but make all the difference..
I remember...
1. My uncle who used to take me out for rides when i was little... a girl of 3... and how he used to play wit me... lifting me up in the air... and how he passed on suddenly... when i was getting ready for school... one morning... tying my shoe laces... i was in UKG... and i was whisked away b4 it cud sink in. Eventually, they said he had gone abroad... a lie most adults think will protect kids from pain. but it doesn't.
2. My LKG and UKG teacher who looked after me like her own child. Thank you Miss. Shashi Jayaraj. I still remember you.
3. My mother teaching me maths and me begging her not to hit me because i JUST COULDN'T get those sums into my head.
4. My dad cooking up stories to feed me my breakfast before i left to school
5. My aunt, who brought me up, getting married and leaving the city, leaving a huge house and a small heart empty
6. The day the most important person in my life, shedding tears because of me
7. Derick Stanley
8. The day Derick left
9. The day i attempted suicide, foolishly... now regretting it... but drinking in from the experience
10. The day my friend gifted me a rubber.. which i still keep treasured.
11. My new school... 9th standard... trying to make friends
12. 10th - 11th standard.... gang of girls who did everything together
13. Miss. Soans.... opening up my eyes to what i loved most... writing. I looked upon her as a mentor, and still do.
14. My emotionally unstable brain that lapsed from chronic depression to extreme happiness
15. Kripa and the unforgettable episode that followed...
16. Board exams.... determination... rage... a fire to prove myself
17. Proving myself... go against every pre determined notion about me... the satisfaction of being looked up by for the first time in 16 years
18. College... indecisive.. crushed... depressed... again
19. Making friends... again
20. Gang of 3 who did.. still do.. things together...
21. Catastrophic episodes... again....
21. finding a place where i am appreciated... a place where i feel like giving my best... for the very first time
22. Making my dad proud... for the very first time
23. Self confidence is at a high... for the very first time
24. Self realization and awareness at a high... for the very first time
25. Finding a new teacher... one who has helped me open up completely and is still helping... who was instrumental yet only incidental in changing me....
Yes... i remember... and will continue to do so... for the rest of my life...
