WHO OR WHAT IS...........

What is friendship ? Who is a friend ?

To say in my maths sir's style " 10 different people will give 11 different answerrs".. so difficult it is to define friendship.... Generally, a friend is someone who will quarrel with u for one whole hour for a silly reson... he is someone with whom u can talk upto 3 a.m in a hostel room... he is someone who understands u better... a person who can assure u "I am with u" .... who can wipe ur tears.... who can make you laugh when you are in distress... who can think your problems as his problem ... who can correct your mistakes...



And finally , he is one who can make fun of u when u write something like this.......... and say " mokka ... inime blog eludhina setha da nee"....

Thank u my dear friend.....

PLEASE.............

Note:FOR INDIANS ALONE

Tomorrow is not a holiday to be spent infront of tv sets ..... Tomorrow is a day when we should remember our leaders and recognize our freedom... If we are not independent , u and I cant sit infront of laptops like this... u and I cant message each other... who knows , even we could not talk to each other freely...

Think how independent we are today.... We are developing nuclear submarines and chandrayans.. we are producing sachins and rahmans... we are painting our tricolour in moon..... we are one among the G-20.... we found the asian games... India is influencing the world of cricket... ours is the only country where 440 million people select a government unanimously.... we are all set to be the world leader in several fields in the years to come....

Just think of... Who are responsible for these.... How many people would have lost their lives for us? How many people would have shunned their comfort and worked for the nation? How many people lost their jobs for the sake of the nation? How many soldiers have lost their lives while battling with the enemy troops in the wars with our neighbours? How many policemen have lost their lives in violence ?

We are living because of them.....

Let us just spend atleast five minutes in silence tomorrow, thinking of our leaders.... Let us always remember and say proudly that "I am an indian"!!! It is the way we can pay tribute to our motherland.....

TARGET I.A.S

August 13 , 2009.......

The day which ensured India a gold medal in 2012 Olympics..... The most unrecognised Indian lady M.C.Marykom would be jumping out of joy.... The 4-time women boxing world champion have to wait just three more years to bag an Olympic gold.... Her long wait has nearly come to an end,with the governing body of Olympic games finally agreeing to include women's boxing in Olympic games....

But the second happiest Indian on that day was this writer.....

My parents finally said a firm"yes" to my I.A.S dreams.....
The thought of taking up the u.p.s.c. exam flashed in my mind, in 2006 when I went to the colector's bungalow to receive a prize for some low-affair quiz competition.... His room,his power, his bungalow,his driver, the people waiting to meet him, all made me to think something new..... Then came 26,january,2007.... I was waiting in the gallery of the gandhi stadium in salem to see my mother receive the award for "The best teacher" for that year.... suddenly a car came...Everybody in the gallery stood up.. All the top government officials were waiting for that car..... I thought "one day i should be there"...

Since then, I am dreaming of that car and of that bungalow... I sincerely believe that I can clear the upsc, which is termed by Wikipedia as "the toughest competitive exams in the world".... the acceptance rate for upsc is 0.01% which means i have to be 1 in 10000.... All these stats never threatened me , since i know wat i am capable of......

But,the huge reluctance displayed by my parents bothered me a lot.... I can't deny the facts told by them till now... I too consistently said " I need job satisfaction... I need to take part in my people's upliftment"... Finally they have given up.... yesterday I was happy to hear " Go ahead"...

The only hurdle now is my desire..... my mind wavered a lot when I saw two things....
1. when i saw the notice board of placement cell in my college...
2.when i came across the news "I.A.S officers transferred"..

But, the only answer to all these questions and doubts is " Why should i lead a normal life?"

So M.C.Marykom will be saying "Come on 2012"...
And i can scream confidently and happily " Come on 2015"..
