F.L.I.R.T

Greetings folks!
I was watching a video shot in college during the staging of the P.T.U zonals (apallingly conducted by the way) and i,therfore, decided to dedicate this post to something linked to it. This would probably be an appropriate moment to tell you that we are a team of 5 guys (and a forever varying number of girls) for dances and we call our little group - F.L.I.R.T
The name was approved by (patners in crime!!!) Maninder, Abhinav and Saurabh (sobby) one night before VISTA 2005(our annual function,in case u didn't know) and your's truly came up with the full form for it - Freedom Lies In Rational Thinking.
We are five guys -(in alphabetical order):

1.Abhinav Jha
2.Aseem Gill
3.Maninder Singh
4.Saurabh Sharma
5.Saurabh Sharma

1.Abhinav Jha - Has a body ,that i believe, is ideal for dancing (western that is) alas! if only he realised it!!!
I am reminded of an anecdote here. We were to go to Faridkot for a fest and we were falling short of one girl. Since the fest was the following day and maninder had all but given up hope of finding a third girl.That was when Mr. Jha was contacted and the whole situation explained to him. Mr. Jha ,IN the next 15 seconds called 6 girls loitering around over there and before you knew it...we were now holding auditions!!!
This is the power of Mr. Jha - Anything to do with a girl; he's your man.

2.Aseem Gill - That's me in case you didn't know.hmm... so what do i say about myself .... i have a long long way to go that's for sure. I only hope to finally learn how to dance one day.(no kidding). Oh and don't freak out if you see me doing a 'frozen 1990' on the college staircases. I'm practising power moves these days!

3.Maninder Singh - Check this guy out during full fledged practice and you'll know what quality dancing is all about. He idolises Prabhu Deva (and Govinda too, i think).

4.Saurabh Sharma - (Comp.Sc.) - Has drastically improved his arm and body waves in recent times. Maybe he should give Hip-Hop dancing a try.

5.Saurabh Sharma - E.I - Relies on facial expressions as his strong point. He shall have to pay,though, for making us all dance to songs such as Mujhse Shaadi Karogi (that includes the towel step :( )

That's F.L.I.R.T for you.
The above comments serve only as a brief introduction of the 5 characters mentioned above. I assure you there's a lot more to know about them in this field and beyond (maybe not about number 2 though).

Anyways i shall be writing about the basics of dancing soon (upon the instance of sushant - i know you're reading this line).

If you're not bored by this time then, by jove, kudos to you.
Amen
A.G

A Pithy Message

@ Mr.Inderjeet Singh Sodhi - Originality wouldn;t harm you.(try not to steal from other people's blogs). I do realise this is falling on deaf ears.

@ Mr. Anuj Bhardwaj - the comments upon you were not meant to be taken in a negative light. You may,however, take them any way you wish to.

Amen to that

Some Obervations I've made in my Life

Here goes nothing ...

Please do forgive me for i do not possess the kind of patience to type out every single observation i make. The list would simply be far too long to fathom. I ,however, am putting down whatever i can recollect right now.

Anything even remotely associated wih the words 'analog' or 'digital' can be hacked.

Trust is a greater compliment than love.

Failure is one of the greatest things that can happen to you.

So is love.

No matter what happens, one thing always remains the same about life ... IT GOES ON.

Nobody i know is as bad as they are made out to be.

Anything thats bad for you will always seem enticing.

Life is not a dress rehersal.

If you do not have self esteem, noone will give it to you.

We hear what we want to hear and not what is being said.

We view everyone not they way they are but the way we are.

It isn't never, it's just long periods of not yet.

The only limitations a person has are the ones self imposed.

Bitterness is a sign of emotional failure.

Trust is a greater compliment than love.

Education does not teach me how to live.

The hope of anybody's entire future lies in three words ...I CAN DO

Courage is what it takes to stand up and speak, Wisdom is what i takes to sit down and

listen.(this isnt MY experience. i read it in a book and found it very germane).

Sometime's i wish someone out there will find me; until then i walk alone.

Everyone deserves to be loved.

Religion , as it is being interpreted today,is the reason the world is breaking up into pieces.

Never kick a man when he is down.

We are all unique. Most of us just don't realise it.

Some of us who do don't believe it.

An effective download speed of 30 kbps IS good enough.

People act the way they do because it makes them feel important.(mostly to others)

Women are more human than men.

Talent holds no value in front of hard work.

True education is what you remember when you have forgotten what you have learnt.

The most underrated thing in this world is an emotion...any emotion.

Whenever people gather in groups larger than 3 for over a considerably long duration of

time, negativity is an almost certain ,direct or indirect, by-product.

A hug,especially from the opposite sex,means more than a thousand words.(dont get me wrong here).

Nothing is embarassing if you live life from the heart.

Seinfeld is one of the best sitcoms ever.



OK i think these are more than a handful for now.Almost all of the above,save one or two,

are my own observations. I'd like to add a huge list to the one just created - with names

of people mentioned - but i just don't feel like it.
Please refer to one of my earlier posts about being lazy.
Until next time...
Aseem

oh wait... before i go i would like to share the lyrics of November Rain (Guns 'N Roses)

with you ...

November Rain


When I look into your eyes
I can see a love restrained
But darlin' when I hold you
Don't you know I feel the same

'Cause nothin' lasts forever
And we both know hearts can change
And it's hard to hold a candle
In the cold November rain

We've been through this auch a long long time
Just tryin' to kill the pain

But lovers always come and lovers always go
An no one's really sure who's lettin' go today
Walking away

If we could take the time
To lay it on the line
I could rest my head
Just knowin' that you were mine
All mine
So if you want to love me
Then darlin' don't refrain
Or I'll just end up walkin'
In the cold November rain

Do you need some time... on your own
Do you need some time... all alone
Everybody needs some time... on their own
Don't you know you need some time... all alone

I know it's hard to keep an open heart
When even friends seem out to harm you
But if you could heal a broken heart
Wouldn't time be out to charm you

Sometimes I need some time... on my own
Sometimes I need some time... all alone
Everybody needs some time... on their own
Don't you know you need some time... all alone

And when your fears subside
And shadows still remain
I know that you can love me
When there's no one left to blame
So never mind the darkness
We still can find a way
'Cause nothin' lasts forever
Even cold November rain

Don't ya think that you need somebody
Don't ya think that you need someone
Everybody needs somebody
You're not the only one
You're not the only one

All Apologies

I do not know why i'm going to do what i am going to do but i presume it is primarily because i believe it is high time i did it.
On a closely linked thought, what I do have is a message for Ms. Aditi Pal - "I'm Sorry". I do not know why and i do not know what for but it just feels right even though i seem not to have wronged you. I know this makes no sense but life, lately, has been that way for me too.I realise that you will never, in all probability, be reading these words...maybe thats why i chose this platform to put these words down. Tomorrow is going to be Judgement Day for me. There comes a time in every man's life when he arrives at the conviction that that he must take himself for better, for worse, as his portion; that though the wide universe is full of good, no kernel of nourishing corn can come to him but through his toil bestowed on that plot of ground which is given to him to till.
My faith might fail me on this one but it's a risk that i am willing to take...
Cheers

I've just returned from practice(western group song, in case you didnt know, which i'm sure you didn't know!!!). We shall be crooning "All the Small Things" by Blink 182. Things actually turned out pretty nice (considering yesterday's session).The seconds and harmonies seem just about in place.You guys should hear balli's drums on this man... the dude beats the **** out of them and MAN do they sound good! Anyways I'm running out of ideas to keep this post going on so i guess this is it for today.
Cheers

IRIS

Ok i've just returned from practice and im sleepy right now so ill keep it short n simple.I shall leave you with the lyrics of a song called Iris by The Goo Goo Dolls (expect more lyrics in the future!!!).
Breathtaking ... (wish i had written it)

IRIS
And I’d give up forever to touch you,
’cause I know that you feel me somehow.
You’re the closest to heaven that I’ll ever be,
And I don’t want to go home right now.
And all I can taste is this moment,
And all I can breathe is your life,
’cause sooner or later it’s over,
I just don’t want to miss you tonight.
And I don’t want the world to see me,
’cause I don’t think that they’d understand.
When everything’s made to be broken,
I just want you to know who I am.
And you can’t fight the tears that ain’t coming.
Or the moment of truth in your lies.
When everything feels like the movies.
Yeah, you bleed just to know you’re alive.
And I don’t want the world to see me,
’cause I don’t think that they’d understand.
When everything’s made to be broken,
I just want you to know who I am.
And I don’t want the world to see me,
’cause I don’t think that they’d understand.
When everything’s made to be broken,
I just want you to know who I am.
I just want you to know who I am.
I just want you to know who I am.
I just want you to know who I am.

Can't think of a title

OK i'm back (still adhering to formal lingual syntaxes).
hmm... so what do i write about ... here i am with my headphones on (listening to self esteem by the offspring -nice!) and having a voice tete-a-tete with my buddy mani on yahoo. He's fretting about his soon-to-arrive broadband bill.
Mughal-e-azam is on T.V right now; watched it a little( for the 4th time i think). I gotta admit it's a pretty slick flick especially when you consider the trash they try to pass off as movies today!
Maybe, though, we (gen x i guess) have today's movies so firmly etched in our minds that we cannot begin to fathom the beauty of this epic. By the way now would be a good time to admit that i can't really stand the movie for very long either!
Anyways, i've been on holiday this week (no college baby!) and quite frankly... "I AM BORED". It's funny how sometimes you end up saying or doing things you always thought were pretty much impossible but then again, that's life for you- it takes you places you never thought you'd go.
I find it queer that whenever we have college on i keep making plans for the off days and when they do arrive (few and far in between by the way - if u dont include weekends!) all those well thought out plans seem to evaporate. It kinda speaks volumes about my memory but i think it's because i dont really WANT to remember those plans (as weird as that may sound. I shall attribute this to the fact that i am inherently lazy. Sometimes i simply hate doing any kind of activity that involves a direct displacement in my relative position at that particular instance. Come to think of it... typing out this blog is geting a little too onerous.( see what i mean when i say i can REALLY be lazy!).
I shall take leave now, it's 12:41 am right now and i gotta turn off the monitor, close my eyes, put some soft/romantic music in the background and spend some time with myself.
Ahh solitude really is Bliss ... Experience it, embrace it because at times it's the only thing you'll have to hold on to .
Peace.

Boulevard of Broken Dreams

Sometimes this song means the world to me ...


I walk a lonely road
The only one that I have ever known
Don't know where it goes
But it's home to me and I walk alone

I walk this empty street
On the Boulevard of Broken Dreams
Where the city sleeps
and I'm the only one and I walk alone

I walk alone
I walk alone

I walk alone
I walk a...

My shadow's the only one that walks beside me
My shallow heart's the only thing that's beating
Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me
'Til then I walk alone

Ah-ah, Ah-ah, Ah-ah, Aaah-ah,
Ah-ah, Ah-ah, Ah-ah

I'm walking down the line
That divides me somewhere in my mind
On the border line
Of the edge and where I walk alone

Read between the lines
What's fucked up and everything's alright
Check my vital signs
To know I'm still alive and I walk alone

I walk alone
I walk alone

I walk alone
I walk a...

My shadow's the only one that walks beside me
My shallow heart's the only thing that's beating
Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me
'Til then I walk alone

Ah-ah, Ah-ah, Ah-ah, Aaah-ah
Ah-ah, Ah-ah

I walk alone
I walk a...

This is me

So this is how it starts off.
I'm actually surprised that i'im adhering to proper grammatical syntaxes right now but i should tell you - it won't last long!!!
neways( hehe c what i mean!) i'm giving blogging yet another try (tried it before but i somehow cudnt sustain it regularly plus i keep 4getting my rather complex passwords!
Anyways here's to the future...and dont worry i've kept an easier password this time around ( don't get any wild ideas though ... read hacking!!!).
P.S - This is Aseem here!!!
That should suffice as an introduction for now.
