Don’t think me as a guru or mentor. I am just your senior friend trying to help you out. I am sure this will save your life ! Myth #1: If you are an exam ranker you will be recruited first; then your fellows ! Your friends start acting weird just before exams. The corridors choke with jealousy. The silence within your group is not often of the exam pressure but the feeling that you might surpass them if they help you. You also don’t want others to benefit from the notes you yourself created. If you are all steaming around like this, stop now and help each other to pass the basic criteria which is mostly 60% and at the most 65% in big companies . You won’t be tested by your rank but your aptitude, your soft skills and how you sell yourself. Read books and surf for developing these skills. You will definitely thank me later for you will impact 1000 times more even with basic technical knowledge than that of the bookworm sitting in front of your bench. Myth # 2: Every en...

What was to happen? She suffocated like her head was forced into a bucket of water.  She managed to make her happy at the cost of herself. But, she never knew one day she will writhe in pain just as a fish suffocating on a terrestrial la...

"Soon silence will have passed into legend. Man has turned his back on silence. Day after day he invents machines and devices that increase noise and distract humanity from the essence of life, contemplation, meditation" - Jean Arp   Facebook , Android phones and PC games have clogged my brain. My knees hurt and I get pissed off by face to face conversations. My relationships are in a turmoil .My belly is no longer flat and has begun to show curves. My eyes? Oh! they are showing red nerves.  I don’t want to miss out a single notification .I get easily disappointed when that faceook notification is a game request. I just can’t wait to check my watsapp every minute. My wrists pain when I play motion games even while I cross the road and then curse the car driver who almost hit me for not being alert. It feels my surrounding is an illusion and I tend to live in more of virtual reality which is infact for me a reality.  Thumbs weren’t designed for fast movem...
