Long time waiting...

I have been so lazy...and you can see that from the time I wrote my last blog....Several things happened since then...I moved to chicago, got married and aged 3 years...

It is a wonderful change to be married and I am really enjoying it. It is great to have someone to talk to and share your life with...Its like starting your life all over again. I think everyone should be married at the right age and share their life, thats when they will get to know themselves better.

I read a couple of books recently...."Five Point Someone" & "Rich Dad Poor Dad".....I think I learned a lot from both the books...I want to summarize for whoever reads this..the two books in two lines...
"Five Point Someone" : The college experiences and the lessons learnt through mistakes....and how important these experience and lessons
"Rich Dad Poor Dad": The power of Financial education....Cash flow and how it can make you financially independent.

list of injuries......

I have not realised until a week ago.....when i hurt my cercicle bone.....that i have had too many injuries from my childhood......so i thought i should make a list of them....
1. Buffalo's horn:
When I was 3 years old a buffalo lifted me on its horn........luckily it was 1cm beside my back one...i would have rather died then ...than living a life without backbone.....
2. Kite madness:
When I was 10 years old I broke a bone in my ankle ....tried to climb a wall....on bricks proecting out...when i was midway....one of the bricks broke...as a result i broke my ankle
3. Eye lash:
In IIT ....I had a two injuries to the eye....this was smaller but a wierd one.....we were playing hockey and one guy hit me very slightly...between my eye brow and my eye lash (by mistake...)....a small eye opened up....above my eye...i had two stiches...
4. Eye brow:
This was the harder one.......I was on the wrong side while playing hockey ...........and got hit really hard on the eye(luckily it hit the bone above the eye)....my hands were full of blood...We went to the institute hospital and I had six stiches on the eye brow ........
5. SLAP tear in the shoulder:
This would have happened as a result of many things.....weight lifting...tennis (real hard serves).....volley ball.........got it repaired through arthroscopic surgery in the US....when i was UT austin
6. Cervicle bone crack:
This is small crack...but it pained a lot...i hurt while playing american football with my friends at HSBC........i fell on the arm i already had the surgery...i hope it did not do any damage to the repaired cartilage....

I am sure Jackie chan would have had.......many more injuries........but that is the nature of his work....but what am i doing........i just feel i am prone to these......so I have the highest probability of getting hurt when a group of people are playing..........so i have decided to play only non contact sports....when my arm gets better.......

night outs......

hey, ever thought of why does some one put a night out........you cannot beleive when I say this.......there are some people who never put a night out......they are really afraid of a night outs....I feel most night outs are unplanned ......like the one I am putting today........I never thought I would put a night out today but it happened.....do not read beyond this if you already feel sick in the stomach..........

So we need to understand one basic thing about night-outs: there are some planned ones and there are some unplanned ones.......Planned ones pale out in comparision with unplanned ones.....some reason for planned nightouts:
1) Assignment due next day........
2) Test the next day......
3) Driving to a place overnight......you could be sleeping on this journey...but then you will have to sleep forever...
4) shivaratri....
can't think of more...

But the resons for unplanned nightouts can be nearly uncountable:
1) You feel like it.......this can be any feeling
2) Keep watching TV, movies.......
3) Really stuck on some thing...say a problem to solve.........
4) Reading a book........
5) writing a blog......
6) browsing the web...
7) talking on phone......
8) talking in a group.......this one is fun....happens a lot in IIT
9) Mosquitos biting all through the night
10) Bedbugs......very recent of my experiences........
11) Dancing all night.....
you think of more........

So, what ever the reason for unplanned nightouts, they will help you become more creative ........so plan some unplanned nightouts........oh no.......cause they should not be planned to be unplanned.....

creativity.......I am no where there.......

Yup, thats what I felt about my creativity when I read through suman's serious blog........wathced syntax's drama...solved da vinci code puzzles on google...and many other things. So, I started thinking how to be creative and thats the reason I started writing this piece of crap which I call my creative side. Beware I do not know whats coming next in this blog because this is supposed to be creative but I feel I am not one of the creativest (created word.......i do not know if there is a superlative to creativity but i created it......see thats my creativity)....I know if you read till here you might be feeling why am i reading this crap?.....I have an answer to that....I am going to leave you now.
