Had my 1st personal interview of my life yesterday... Have had many such interviews but those were all jus for the heck of it.. Formality types.. but yesterday's was an interview at st.joseph's college of business admin. for getting myself hooked in that college for the next two years .. but for wat?? yea for MBA, more importantly to basically "slog"...
Reached there on time which was surprising for my ownself... Its k.. i lik surprises.. ;) anyways we were asked to go to a particular room and take our seats.. And i already saw lot of thm who were ultra punctual.. And most of them being gals.. wel nothin surprising there coz gals are always like tat.. they can go to any extent to please someone.. But yea i feel thats one thing i gotta learn frm thm.. JUST that oly things.. and NOTHING els.... but yea they wre all cute lookin decent gals...
The room was soon filled and the dean walked in spoke some words in english.. yeah english.. i cud understand oly tat ... I was reeli so damn cool and care free coz i wasnt expecting anythin at all from the interview.. I went in a bent of mind wher i kept on sayin to myself.. "I GET IN, WELL AND GOOD.. IF I DON'T, WEL AND GOOD TOO"..... Life has of late taught me how not to expect anything from anyone and from life too.. and hehe to my surprise i have been getting watever i wanted ever since i had adapted that kind of attitude...
Later the whole lot of us were asked to write on essay about us being an investor in the movie slumdog millionaire.. i wrote well and then we were awaited by two rounds of personal interviews. The first round was'nt all that great for me...
there was this fat plump lady who took the interview and she did look lik one typical feminist.. And bang started screwing me and ripping me apart by shooting questions. And her questions were so full of sarcasm that it looked as though she had gone for a special lifetime course on how to be sarcastic... Anyways she asked me wat my fav. subject was and i said economics and man she strted askin an undergraduate lad questions whic was too much for him and the lad was great in every othr aspect than studies.. later i somehow deviated the whole conv into social contract theory which i was confident to speak about...
I wasnt all that pleased with my own performance. The second round was awaiting me.. and i ws lik little nervous comparitively. A gentle aged man was sittin in the chamber and looked lik an retired army officer.. Anyways walkd in an he too asked me my fav subject and this time the lad was smart enough not to say "economics" :) i said sociology... and confidently spoke about it.. And little later he saw the my application form and i saw a frin on his face and he said" oh am talkin to a josephite?? " and i said yes.. he started smilin all the more for some reason ... may be coz both of us already shared a common identity.. then i said to myself.. " the josephite identity works my boy" :) then he said he should'nt be wasting time of a josephite like how he was and sent me off wit respect... Was a nice feeling...
Lets see wat happens now.. Im gonna keep my fingers crossed and wait for the results...

Science... Boon or Bane????
Well witnessed one of the best lectures i have ever heard my international relations prof. has given till date... atleast in my class.. waah wat an enchanting lecture it was.... his lectures usually are but me along with the "my types" guys neva listen to wats goin on in the class... we either sleep or keep irritating the person who is sleeping and finally end up gettin a lecture for our acts by the same lecturer.. wel i have neva come across someone lik him in my 20 yrs of life.. Impeckable is not the word to appreciate his spoken english.. A great orator... But who cares.. im a student and will do my duty like how he is doing his duty and my duty as a student is not to listen but to disturb.. ;)
Anyways i duuno wat went wrong with me today that i very anxiously and without fallin asleep heard to wat he spoke and i was reeli moved afta wat he spoke.. He very emotionally spoke about "Science if its doing something good or something bad" ??? well even he couldnt answer it and neither could we... but then that question kept on echoing in my mind and made me once again think after a very long time.. some fodder for my brain finally...
K comin to the question now.. Yeah i kno science has brought about some great wonders to this world which our ancestors couldnt have and wouldnt have even been able to imagine about how oday's world is which we are witnessing.. Earlier people used to send messengers to convey message to someone in just the next door village.. but today !!!!! its the yahoo messenger thats doing the duty.. name is the same "messsenger" but then all of us know the difference between a messenger and "yahoo" messenger.. hehe
No doubt it has done done wonders but then i feel we all are going to pay a very huge price for the contribution of science in our lives... as they usually say nothing in this world is for free.. we gotta pay a price for all whic we are already doing and paying where the expenditure takes its charge in the form of pollution,stress,war,heavy competetion..... According to me there should be no competetion ... i feel a day will arrive wen the society will no longer be a capitalist society but an utopian society... wher people may live to work and live for others and not work to live and lead a selfish life... it may sound insane.. yes it does but then i thot over it again and again.. i feel its possible for whic a great transformation has to take place which i think is soon gonna happen... whic is the "THE 2012 CALLING"
people were healthy and smart in the olden days but now science and technology has taken its place firmly not to make them still smarter but actually to make them dumb by making them feel smarter which is a real smart way of business... I feel the world then was much better then how it is now... life full of superficiality.. hi tech cars,hi tech bikes bla bla bla... an yea hi tech gal frnds ... hehe i dunno wats gonna happen... I just cant imagine the amount of damage science is actualy injecting into the society... The first thing i would blame that science has brought in is the "nuclear weapons" had it ot brought it into the society there would have never been wars which are gonna lead no where... war for a cause is fine.. but war to just flaunt its ability just proves how dumb people have turned after science ..
People may question asking about its contribution in the field of medicine.. wel i would say its a waste.. Human beings are after all forms of nature and if they are dying then we should let it happen and not artificailly influence the results and disturb the chain of life cycle...
Anyways i feel im going way out of my shoes coz of the grudge on science at the moment.. but i kno even afta talkin so much against it my hand will reach my mobile phone asap... so i reeli dunno...
gud nite....
