Hamazing!

It was day unlike anyother. today i attended the IIMB A-V quiz. Due to the ambiguity of the quiz timing, (whether forenoon or er well fore fore noon), i ended up reaching one hour late. In the endevour of finding the institute which is, i realised today,in the back of the boondocks, i skipped 2 red lights, made a forbidden u-turn right beneath a cops nose, made marcus go over 80kmph, made marcus go over bumps and potholes with minimum breaking, lost my way and nearly ran over pious benny hinn methodists( actually that was fun..!) all for THE QUIZ.
question 1 : connect laloo yadav, hema malini and om puri
ans: roads of Bihar. (fundae :instead of hema malini's cheeks they turned out like om puri's under laloo)
HAMAZING!!!!
question 2: connect douglas adams, kasparov and sleeping deve gowda
answer: deep thought (fundae: deve gowda's infamous repartee that he wasn't sleeping but was,
u guessed it, "in deep thought")
HAMAZING!!!
i wasnt a serious quizzer till i joined RVCE. my first quiz was the freshers quiz conducted by that hallowed ilk of 2003. i loved it. the quiz was simple, workoutable, fun and most importantly was certainly not an egocentric trip of the quiz master's intellect or knack for puerile trivia. quizzing has changed since then, its no longer a knowledge sharing excercise. it has become a demonstration of intellectual worth. its about the 30 secs when nobody knows the answer and the quizmaster can bask in the ignorance of others and extoll his "fundae", its about insecure people who have to show-off inorder to convince themselves of their standing.
however THE QUIZ wasnt all that bad, had a few good questions too, but i've realized that quizzing isnt fun any more. its not about questions that can be worked out or where the answers are as tantalizingly close as waves that barely touch the toes. its about significant minutiae. i guess im not skipping any reds for any quiz any more

shooey shooey catchy monkey

well, its been a long time since i last posted, but then i dont think it created world crisis, so im quite hum about it. things have been quite hectic. Alyesha my best friend and the coolest chica to grace the earth was here, after 3 long years and i had a great time chilling with her. The asghars are the coolest people i know and respect. saam, the matriach is my idea of a perfect woman, shes absolutely sharp and brilliant,also funny and is the epitome of altruism. Pervez, is the chief. a sailor by profession, but responds more like an amateur international policy expert and explodes when "george" is mentioned in the vicinity. lol, and ofcourse Alyesha, who is brilliantly funny, the best sense of humour, ever and the only reliable shoulder to cry on. the asghars have influenced me soo much that its hard to fathom. saam got me out when i was in the throes of social gauche. the chief has always been a guiding light on morals, (especially, the house + roof drawing, lol) and alyesha has been the loyal friend. i love the asghars, they are my second family.
