Isolation

Image
That's the psychology behind imprisonment, isolation is the greatest punishment any living being can get. Being separated from rest of the society is worse than dead. Though we proudly consider man as a 'social animal', I don't think that even animals can have an isolated life, applicable to most of them. The desire to be heard, recognized and get response from others are basic human needs. Social networking sites like Orkut or Facebook, works and thrives on this psychology. Barring the people who live behind the bars, we all can spend time with friends, loving family and we also succumb to a lot of material possessions. But sometimes, amidst of all these love, laughter and celebrations we suddenly lose ourselves. Everything, the loving friends, dazzling parties and ravishing girlfriend, becomes alien concepts. Everything appears to be fake then, there will be no sense of belonging and you will feel totally isolated from the rest. The state of nothingness will be so hau...

Public Relations talent pool

Wikipedia says; ' Public relations ( PR ) is a profession with varying definitions because of its many functions and the differentiating perceptions held by its practitioners [ 1 ] and the public' But the MBA (PR) batch of 2010 of SIMC believes that there is a lot more to bookish definitions when it comes to public relations/corporate communication/events or a lot another related areas. As Wikipedia says, it cannot be defined in a single sentence and confined in to a nutshell. Ranging from media tracking to marketing communications, we are here to cater to a wide range of employers. We have come up with a viral video which will give you an idea about the batch and what are our areas of interest. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9xcZNFk0IVc The second video is built around a theme which highlights the different aspects of SIMC as a brand and college, it is named as 'Journey through SIMC' http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WAga92QHb3Y&feature=related Watch both the videos...

1411 is a shocking number!

Image
The first question on this regard would be, "Why are you advocating tiger conservation?" But unfortunately 'why' is of least importance here and 'how' takes toll on us! With only 1411 tigers left in India we don't have much time left to stop and think about relevance of 'Save Tiger' campaign. Yet, the objective of this blog post is to increase awareness about the importance of 'tiger conservation'. Though I knew that the reducing number of tigers is an underlying issue, never thought of it so seriously, till the number 1411 hit me like a bolt from the blue. How can we be so casual about an extincting species which happened to be our national animal also?! According to WWF, at the beginning of 20th century, India had an estimated population of 40,000 tigers. By 2002, the number drastically came down to 3,642. As per National Tiger Conservation Authority (NTCA), G overnment of India, we are left with 1,411 tigers only. Which is much mor...

Apparently 26. Perpertually 20

Image
Unlike last time, this is not a birthday blog. This one is a kind of memory retrieval and thanksgiving based on the fact that by the end of two years (2008 July to 2010 Feb) I learnt life in a better way, I came across cold blooded people, warm ones and people pretending to be either of two. Some turned to be visible enemies for life time (yes I believe in that concept ;)) and a lot of acquaintances and yes a very few friends as such. In Lavale, I learnt the words 'hypocrite' and 'hypocrisy' in a 360degree manner (communication college parlance, phew!) and learnt how to deal with hypocrites in an improved manner, for that I launched 'The all new Midhun', a hypocritical one for them only. Anyways some of these things should be confessed and some other things must be expressed. I don't believe in keeping love or anger inside heart and bursting it off, sooner or later. So can't help writing this blogpost. Lets see how will it progress. I'm writing...

My list of needs, wants, desires and greeds

Image
Prelude: I am happy with whatever I have now; I've trained myself to enjoy the smallest pleasures in life, like having a chocolate or riding a bike. I don’t believe in cribbing about shortcomings- physical, mental or material. But quoting ‘Die another day’ lyrics, ' no one ever died from wanting too much' ;) This list is very personal in nature, it doesn't represent my bigger dreams either (business, to be specific). Visit almost all countries in the world ( Switzerland specifically) Collection of Swatch and Q&Q watches Collection of sun glasses (not brand specific, but especially Aviator glasses) A Tata Safari (Black) Any or all of these cars- Mercedes Benz (S or M class), BMW and/or Acura RSX Any or all of these Bikes- One Sports (GSX 100), Bullet and/or RX 100 (or similar two stroke bike) A honeymoon trip to Wayanad during monsoons, ( https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhLJFVWmPTy65DnxagyA...

The Conspiracy theory of universe

Image
We have been hearing this for long that the entire universe conspires to help our burning desires/dreams come true, if it is burning deep within your heart. Of course, the intensity of the desire inside is not the same for different individuals, but it is definite that the threshold level is same for the entire universe to act upon it. No, these all are not mere theories I read up somewhere or derivatives of my imagination. Real life experiences, that’s what I care and share here. At least some of you know my life is revolving around a dream called Mpower . Though I’m not so sure about the trajectory or orbit of this rotation as of now, I know I’m going to reach that destination soon and going to be a part of it. It’s not just a business or money making idea for me, but the vision is targeting to achieve some noble objectives. Obviously I have individual interests in it, but I’m keeping the larger picture really huge, which I would explain later through lesser words and more of de...

Intelli(Gent)le?

Image
Should it be either intelligent or gentle? It hurts sometime to be gentle when you need to be tough in all sense and some other time intelligence is a curse, to spot out and analyse things which need not be dug deeper. Yes, I'm like this by default and honestly I don't want to change much. I cry when I feel like, I laugh out loud when I'm high; I sing, I dance and I do things as my heart says ;) But one bad/good thing about me is that I can't show a smiling face and keep hatred deep within, if i have something in my mind, no matter it disturbs me or make me merry, I'll blurt out. There won't be any intelligence or gentleness, it might be as crude as that. I don't believe in 'strategical tactics' when it comes to relationships. You may wonder, why I'm scribbling all these non sense. Simply put, this is the dilemma I've been going through for the last one month. I've to compromise on intelligence as well as gentleness just because of in...
