As the journey in architecture continues I begin to realise that last year was test of strength and character...This test pronounced those who will survive in the long run not only physically and mentally but ethically as well....For all those wondering why have I taken such a sudden interest in philosophy and taken a downturn in humour...The answer is- we all have shed our naivety and innocence and evoluted into hard and confident beings...The ashes have been left behind and we can do nothing to get them back...
HELP WANTED:
It is by experience i can tell-.. and we will all agree on this...that the seniors we actually respect, not 'mock respect' are the ones who have treated us gently to the point where they have treated us as equals...Those are the seniors we don’t "biscuit" behind their backs...those are the ones we smile and wish instinctively...those are the ones we do not escape from, by finding new routes to our classroom...
They are defensive and a li’l scared, that’s why they are on the offensive...they want to stand out...be the protector ...make the change...all that nonsense…because they haven’t adjusted to being at the bottom of the ladder again...we have all been there...
Well you must be wondering why am I so morose and grim ....well the thing is I LEFT MY CLAY MODELS IN MY LOCKER :(
those are my ashes ....my regrets ....and I have learned to always clear out my locker before year ends....now it is left to me to search eighty something lockers to find my models and i have only Tanu (my BFF) for help..
HELP WANTED:
Requirement-
Two legs
Power of speech
Two eyes
Brief- All search is to be done when the classroom is clear of all forms of life.. The eyes are for lookout if any student or teacher is coming...They may suspect us for God knows what..
you never know...teachers have an excellent imagination..
Speech is required for shouting -"ALERT ALERT ...ENEMIES APPROACHING" in case of the elderly and "ALERT ALERT THE PRISONERS HAVE ESCAPED" in case of the junis....
The last job duty is to put those legs in good use and RUN FOR YOUR LIVES!!
There is absolutely no need for you to look behind and see if your fellow soldiers are injured, trapped, arrested, prosecuted or hanged...!!You save yourself...But yes you will need to save the innocents of war-YOUR EMPLOYER -that is me-from the line of fire.Speaking of fire I have to give my views about another topic that is on fire these days...
INT-RAGGING, that is introduction in a quite militarised fashion...Has anyone wondered-...now I’m sure junis will nod their heads on this one-how can anyone demand respect?
'Respect', in few words "may be ordered by bullying, but that is not respect you are demanding" ...that is pure obedience...and the last time i checked, many of the so called new seniors are not even obedient to their parents...So how can such an attribute be expected out of others...It is by experience i can tell-.. and we will all agree on this...that the seniors we actually respect, not 'mock respect' are the ones who have treated us gently to the point where they have treated us as equals...Those are the seniors we don’t "biscuit" behind their backs...those are the ones we smile and wish instinctively...those are the ones we do not escape from, by finding new routes to our classroom...
Now i agree for a while, it (intragging) may have its charm...you feel SUPERIOR...you feel in power...but what will this superiority do, when ten years later the very same junior may have you employed for God's sake!. That will be quite a something...what will you do then ??...revisit old memories with your employer :D..
And the surge of power only lasts as long as a whispering candle..The only ground that can you gain respect on is EXPERIENCE...experience that you can offer..Not shove down their throats ....you can be stern but not outright RUDE and despotic... as for the last argument people give "we have also been treated this way",BLAH BLAH BLAH...well you don’t have to repeat those mistakes and be another link in this infinite chain...why not be the latch that brings an end to it?
The way they are, is because they haven’t been in a college environment that long..
We were the same in the past..They are defensive and a li’l scared, that’s why they are on the offensive...they want to stand out...be the protector ...make the change...all that nonsense…because they haven’t adjusted to being at the bottom of the ladder again...we have all been there...
Why is there such a need to follow “trends” set by others....isn't anyone out there sick of doing the "cool thing"...because for me the idea of being cool has lost its charm...youth factor is not the cool factor...cool factor is all about negativity...
Another of the cool factor idea is dislike button on Facebook..People send so many req. to join their ‘add dislike button Facebook’ group..Has anyone thought about why Mark Zuckerberg has not introduced the dislike button yet??
WELL BECAUSE HE THINKS AND HE HAS A BRAIN!!Facebook is a social networking site -people whom we know, meet us on the web and talk...you want to dislike what they say and do and hurt them..?? why the need for socialising then ?...Why Not Be A Recluse And Leave The World Alone??
You want to know what happens when people introduce the dislike button??YOUTUBE happens ....it’s filled with NEGATIVITY AND ABUSES ...there is not a single page.. you will find on YouTube where there isn’t a foul word or a harsh demeaning comment...why is it so? - “Thumbsdown” button and dislikes...because people who are disliked or thumbsdowned lash back with a few "Fs" and "A-Holes"...
What is the reason for me to work late at night and write for so long...because i have a message and i want to reach out to people...Cool Factor Is Overrated. It only destroys your 'self' and you lose your innocence in midst of all that coolness..
If You are reading this and have reached this line .then i thank you for bearing with my grammatical and spelling errors ..i promise the next post will not be so grave..because im more comfortable with humour...
