Love Must Go On ….
He’s not the captain of the Football team,
His Guitar skills kinda suck,
He is not the hottest guy around,
But he is exactly what I want !!
Imperfection is Beauty,
Madness is Genius,
and its better to be Absolutely Ridiculous,
than Abosolutely Boring !! …. Marlyn Monroe
Its kind of weird,
you’re just a Friend ,
But u’re the first person
I look for on my buddylist,
And I Smile everytime u sign on ,
and everytime you Ping me,
it just make me feel SPECIAL !! … so true
There are 3 things in life that are worth living for :
LOVE
HAPPINESS,
and….
the BELIEF that they both are right around the corner waiting for U !!
Life is too short to be Mean and Hateful so,
Kiss Slowly,
Love Truely,
Laugh Instantly and
Forgive Quickly
When U were little,
Ur Daddy was ur Hero,
Ur Mommy was the savior,
getting high was running around the Playground
and Boys were the least of ur worries,
I sure do Miss those Dayz..
You can be my Hopeless Romatic
And I can be ur Classic Disaster !!
One Smile from Him makes my
5 a.m wake up,
Cold Shower,
nothing special to wear,
no hairspray left,
missed the bus,
late to class…..
Whole Day Worthwhile …… my fav one
When U look at me a certain way,
I feel like we both’re playing a Game,
Where we wont admit it, but deep down
We both know that we should be TOGETHER !!
I wish I could Sleep Forever,
Coz in my Dreams He Loves me back….
8 Billion people in World ………….. I Still Want U !!
Someone asked :What I saw in U ….
My only answer was ………. EVERYTHING !!
I never stopped Loving U… I just stopped showing it !!
When I am older
& my girl asks me
who my first Love was
I dont have to pull out the old photo album
I want to be able to point across the room and say
” He is sitting right over there ” …..
Isn’t it funny
that the one person
I wear make-up for
tells me I am Beautiful
Without it ?
Every penny I throw in a Well,
Every 11.11 on the clock,
Every crossed finger,
Every turn of a necklace pendant,
Every shooting star,
Every fallen eye-lash,
Every blown out candle,
Every wish I could make,
I WISH TO BE WITH U !!
In a room full of people,
U’re always the one I look for …
Somewhere between all our Laughs, long talks, stupid little fights, and jokes … I fell in LOVE !! …. very true
Boy : Whats your biggest fantacy
Girl : to be kissed in rain ; how about U ?
Boy : to be the one kissing u in rain !!
He has the most adorable eyes you could ever fall for,
and the cutest smile that will take your breath away,
He has the ability to make U laugh everytime he speaks,
and when you look at Him ,
Its hard to turn away !!
I Love U ..
Do U Love Me?
OfCourse Not..
No One Loves Me
But thats OK..
I’ve adapted to that
My Pillow now has a waterproof cover !
Someone asked me ;
Why do u like him so much? But
Before I could reply,
My best friend put her hands over my mouth and said,
“Don’t even get her started ..”
The Hardest part of walking away is knowing that
U wont run after me …..
” My World revolves around him …
unfortunately He has no clue ” … …. …
I am not afraid of heights , I’m afraid of falling ;
I am not scared of the dark, I’m scared of what’s in it ;
&& I am not afraid to Love , I’m afraid of not being Loved back..
Work like U dont need the money ,
Dance like no one is watching,
Love like you have never been hurt
Everywhere,
Everything and
almost anyone can Remind me of him,
thats how much I think about Him
First he was my Friend ,
then he was an illusion,
and now he’s the best thing
that COULD’VE happen….
To Me , the best feeling in the World is laying on his chest and hearing his heartbeats.
I told him this and he replied,
” Why wouldn’t U? Afterall , u are the reason it beats .”
Have u ever just been sitting there ,
minding ur own bussiness ,
when u hear that sad song coming on the radio,
& u start to cry and u just cant stop ,
coz at that moment all u want to do is ,
tell him how do u feel & just hope he understands !!
Here I am sitting and reading quotes again & again with one person on my mind the whole entire time ….
I Feel Happy When ……
…. when my friend calls and scolds me for not being in touch .
…. when a blue jeans and white shirt reminds me of the old college days.
…. when someone annoys me still I enjoy being around with him.
…. when an old friend calls and surprises me by telling she’s not single anymore .
…. when I find such a single day in office when I am supposed to do nothing.
…. when I see even a single scrap from the person whom I have added in my crushlist.
…. I feel happy for a person whose stupidest things annoys me when present and reminds me of him when he’s not around !!
…. when I find my close friend happily settled with the guy of her dreams.
…. when me and my friend carry on our bizzare endless talks about guys…. chicken … dieting…. good for nothing girls
and most implortantly about our unaccomplished goals .
.. to be continued
The “ME” Within Me !!
Long before when I was small
Dreamt to be on the highest star
Little heart and dreams were tall
Determined I was no Fear at all !!
I lived my Life the way I like
Welcomed each day with utmost delight
Kicked off the pains and always wore a Smile
N dats my Mantra , dats my Style !!
To hover in clouds and fly in the sky
Each one dreams and everyone’s try
Not all of them have that matter
And those who have must use it better !!
Within me I had that fire
To melt for it with burning desire
D way I followed was straight and clean
Faced all dangers and marked my win !!
Focused I was so planned my acts
Good or bad I accepted the facts
Power in deeds and confidence as the key
Readiness to change the “Me within Me” !!
Played with twisters and faced the storms
Thanked GOD for being unharmed
I fell many times and others did mocked
I rose again and stood as Rock !!
No one was der with me in need
Alone I sobbed as a kid
Wanted a hand to hold when I fell
A shoulder to cry , a Heart to yell !!
One who’d smile when I am happy
Be my pillow when I am sleepy
Sit with me and look at the stars
Heal my wound and count my Scars !!
Today I have whatever I dreamt
No one could ever feel what it meant
Happy I am and thankful to GOD
To give me strength to walk on Sword !!
The highest star is still very far
And I am on the way for it
I’ve found the fire within me
Now its turn for the World to See !!
Composed in 3rd year YCCE after campus placements !!
(Bunked block lectures of Artificial Intelligence
.. .. came up with this in meantime !!)
Dedicated to all those who are sailing through the ups and downs of life !!
Cheers for our spirits !!
How INDIA Got Fooled By US And UK …..
Can you ever imagine a country without engineers, scientists, doctors and other professionals? That is exactly what is happening in India. US and UK Corporations have caused the ultimate brain drain in India. Most of the talented students are running after dollar driven outsourcing work from the US or UK, working and learning IT and/or call center work. It is estimated 78% of Indian engineers from mechanical, Electrical, Electronics, Civil, Instrumentation, Chemical and Biomedical engineering leave their field after graduation and work for BPO companies like TCS, Wipro etc. If this is not brain drain then what is?
In the mean time India is facing acute shortage of talents in the fields of science, engineering and technology. On the other hand the US and UK engineers work on their own technical field and they shift the dirty but talent-needed IT work to countries like India
India’s Internal Brain – Drain
The hype over the high rate of attrition (30 to 40 per cent) in the information technology industry has pushed into background similar problems being faced by India’s old economy firms. For example, the capital goods industry, which employs more than 2 million people and where the average employment per crore of investment is over 50 times than that of a commodity-based industry, has been facing an attrition rate of over 30 per cent for several years now.The situation is serious, says A M Naik, chairman and managing director of Larsen & Toubro, India’s premier capital goods firm. “It seems engineering and management graduates in India do not want to dirty their hands any more by working for a manufacturing firm,” he adds.Naik should know. His company has been growing at around 20 per cent every year and needs 2,000 fresh engineers to keep up with the pace. The problem is compounded by the fact that a similar number is leaving the company every year.This is despite an AC Nielsen survey last year, which showed that L&T is the most preferred choice for engineering graduates (including IITians). But the catch is that the number of students interested in hardcore engineering is dwindling fast.
For them, the engineering man hour in India constitutes only 3 per cent of the cost of a project. They use this to build their own country by creating assets, which is 33 times of one engineering hour used. This means that for every $30 million of engineering services that are provided by multinational centres in India, the country is deprived of assets worth over $1 billion, which would have been created if these engineers had worked on Indian projects,” he says, adding that the cost of one engineering hour used being 10 times more in their country, the multinationals can easily pay double or triple of what their Indian counterparts can afford
The chief of L&T, which prides itself as being an Indian multinational, says if the issue isn’t addressed fast, the country will miss the bus again as far as its manufacturing sector’s growth is concerned.The problem earlier was retrograde government policies, the problem now is talent shortage. The future war will be fought based on who’s got the best talent. Our biggest challenge is to attract talent laterally and to retain our talent pool,” says Naik. Consider just how much this has hurt India. The share of manufacturing in India’s GDP is 17 per cent compared to 50 per cent in China, 45 per cent in Korea and Malaysia and 40 per cent in Thailand.But we continue to be obsessed with the information technology industry, which contributed only 4 per cent to India’s GDP,” says Naik
Apart from the internal brain drain, the key problem area is availability of fresh talent. While graduates of the top schools prefer either to go abroad or work for consumer goods or IT companies, a minuscule percentage join engineering companies only to be poached by multinationals after being trained by Indian firms. Naik blames the top B-schools for not paying enough attention to this aspect. “They are just adding to the hype by publicising the mind-boggling salaries being offered by the global investment banks. Students are succumbing to peer pressure,” says Naik.HR experts, however, say Naik is just being too emotional and idealistic. The name of the game is simple: if the market is willing to pay higher salaries, the option is obvious. You either join the game or watch from the sidelines. “L&T offers the opportunity to build the nation. Any B-school grad in India would love to do that provided the company pays market-linked salary,” said an HR expert.
Naik agrees, to an extent. That explains the company’s focus on HR as a vehicle for change and a tool for transformation. L&T has introduced innovative and niche training like Glopat to train people in terms of country risk management, social and cultural integration and ability to convert contacts into hard business.The company has also introduced a new cadre of Global Managers who will have the ability to make a success out of the most complex business scenarios in global environments. For potential assessment, employees are assessed by outside experts. For example, senior management staff are expected to manage risk, strategise, have financial acumen, and ability to network. This assessment is carried out during a two-day exercise at the company’s management development centre in Lonavla.
Besides, several initiatives like the People Capability Maturity Model have been introduced. L&T is the ninth company in India to have been assessed at Level 5 at three of its development centres. “The time for transformation is now,” says Naik. Are engineering grads listening?
At 20….
Days are slipping off my hands,
Just as tightly gripped handful of sand.
Slow down O’ Time and wait silently,
I wanna live more , much more at 20!
Haven’t even laughed much,
Haven’t even cried much,
Haven’t even tried to LOVE as such!
Teens came and passed in fractions,
As if they were’nt a part of me.
In the blind passion to be at the top,
I’ve left behind the ‘girl’ within me!
Now looking back I regret a lil,
I shud have lived the most of them.
Dived a lil deeper , flied a lil higher,
Shud’ve turned back the time again!
Turn back O’ Time in your flight,
Make me a child again jus for tonight.
let me live my teens a lil more,
Who knows wats der in my destiny’s store!
He lies in the core of my heart beneath!
I’ve found the one to live with,
Dreaming about him in each and every sigh.
Let me have a crush on a Guy,
the world at this age is much more to see!
Let me be myself and only me,
Let me live the teens in my style.
So plzz move back time almighty for a while,
Let us see some more dreams together,
Cherish our moments big or small whatever.
Collect those memories and lock them forever,
Open up and live them again I wish whenever!
I’ll be thankful to u O’ Time
Plzzz turn back soon.
See I m not alone to plead b4 U,
Thousands like ‘ME’ are waiting toooo!
So 20’s here and I ‘ve to move ahead ![]()
Set new aims and live upto them,
But still if u can……….
” Turn Back O’ Time In Your Flight,
Make Me a Child Again Jus For Tonight “……
2nd year YCCE…………… Yeshu!
Lovely Teens
16 was I and felt some change
My heart ran at a different range,
Puzzled was I ,wondered why ?
Was I changed or has changed the sky…..
And dat was the start of the tender teens….
Then life was about to take a spin
Days were filled with fun n leisure,
Being a child was the greatest pleasure
I saw the stars
I saw the trees,
But they were same as they always be
I guess something has happened to me….
Is it really the lovely teens
Everything looked better then it has been,
I flew like birds and stared the stars
HOME for me was now a room of bars….
Who was he who looked at me
My heart beated as fast as it could be,
Something poked but the feel was good
Wanna see again that handsome DUDE….
I stared myself for great long hours
Worried about the pimples and scars,
They were before but I never cared
Something has happened to me I swear …
Those were the best days of my life
And i have lived the best of them,
What a great age it has been
So everyone misses those LOVELY TEENS !!!
(12 std vacations………Yeshu….My Shivaji Science Days..
Wounds Of Division Are Still To Heal
Beyond the borders besides the sand
Is our brother with our own land,
Singing merry songs the “Westerlies” blow
Sindhu was also eager to flow…..
Some years before when we were one
Love bloomed and hatred was none ,
After the nightmare with the “white” men
Brotherhood was broken with the ink of pen…..
Groups were formed and Borders were drawn
All for the sake of “Green” and “Saffron”,
Tears were here and same there too
Humanity wept and the blood flew….
Twice they clashed in the bravest Fights
Crores were fired in one Night,
Now poor are thou and me tooo
I have Hunger and Cries, have’nt U…..?
Now let me live in Peace here
And you too have the Peace,
Open up to new Horizons
And see the darkness flees….
Celebrate the freedom but remember the past
We are the sons of same Mother at last,
We both sail in the same ship
U go for “Rahim” and “Ram” I worship……
Poor are U and Me too
Pains I have , hav’nt U?
Both of us now toil for a days Meal
The wounds of DIVISION are still to heal……
(10 th Std…summer vacations..Post Kargil War)…………………Yeshu!
