Tragedies of my life

by Sharique on July 27, 2006

1.) A girl refused me when i was in school because she though i am not studious and was frittering time with friends (btw she couldn’t make it to IIT). After joining IIT when i approached a girl, it was no again. This time is was due to me being over studious! Read more here

2.) The only foreign university i knew before joining IIT was MIT. Now when i need to apply, my knowledge has increased to just one more..Waterloo

3.) ‘Dumsheras’ used to be my favourite in school. Only recently, while browsing a blog, i came across ‘dumb charades’. I was bewildered…inspite of knowing those 2 words individually i never thought they mean my version of ‘dumsheras’.

4.) My english was pathetic in school. Not just english but literature as a whole. But still i was the all India topper in Urdu in class 10th boards! I never could imagine myself writing long articles but now its my passion.

5.) Before joining IIT i thought engineering is all about Physics…perhaps the only complexity would come when one needs to apply Newton’s laws of motion, Electromagnetic laws and few optics together and design a car. Well my project is about mass transfer in a fuel cell, neglecting the electrical and chemistry aspect of it!! I never could have imagined that science could so complex that you can get a Phd just working only on one aspect of it.

6.) I was obsessed with spects in class 9th. I deliberately read lying down on a bed so that i could get my eye sight defective. And now i am thinking of contact lenses

7.) My mother still doesn’t know that i own a laptop and a 18K mobile!

8.) I wanna app because i want an Apple laptop in my room! Yes thats the primary reason!! (they are cheap in US)

@Nivya Kimbi:
Hell with him, hell with me, hell with kausik… ah! you seem to be undergoing a taurmatic period in your life.

@Sharique:
Well, I can understand all those tragedies and how tough they might have been on you espl the dumbsheras thingy, but her take a look at Nivya Kimbi, you will fell a lot better. lol

Ado paavi,
Only bloggers can comment is it. Change the settings such that wordpress users can comment too, else u lose a commenter :p

But seriously Nivya has a blog, you cant control spam by only allowing blogger users to comment.

10 Sharique 07.28.06 at 8:36 pm

@nivya
Well u can’t bribe someone to get into iit…btw what makes u feel that? are u aware of the previous sagaro cards? just see them…and feel proud that u r being clubbed together with the likes of princess (http://gapp.wordpress.com/cards/)..anyways just chill

@sagaro

“I was obsessed with spects in class 9th. I deliberately read lying down on a bed so that i could get my eye sight defective. And now i am thinking of contact lenses”

[:P]
i studied in dim light to achieve the same goal..

12 Sharique 12.01.06 at 12:09 am

You were spects?? :shock:

13 aqsa 12.03.06 at 10:03 pm

no i dont.
i broke my spectacle on the very first day of flaunting it and then followed rounds of torture and finally in a couple of months the lenses came out!
my mom decided that im not getting another pair.
PS: my number was .25!!!
:grin:
after years of studying in dim light…all i got was .25!
:sad:

Points 1,2,3 and 5 are all part of growing up.

Point 4 - Wow at your Urdu! Not knowing English is definitely not a tragedy in life. And Alhamdulillah, now you’re fluent in both languages.

Points 6 and 7 show the weirdo side of you. :)

And as far as point 8 is concerned - Do not buy a mac. It’s all sleek and classy, but the heat dissipation system really gets on your nerves sometimes. Wait for sometime for a newer version, and hopefully they’ll sort out this problem.

And studying in the US just to get yourself a good laptop is pretty lame. That’s one area you still need some growing up to do.

And about point 1 - Girls are pretty lame anyways. YOU should throw rocks at them…. :)

“And about point 1 - Girls are pretty lame anyways. YOU should throw rocks at them….”

:???:
let ur girl friend/wife see this, then we will ask you whos lame and whos not.

Aqsa,

It was a lame joke, not intended to offend anyone. Cheers.

17 Anonymous 12.06.06 at 7:45 pm

It was taken from a popular t-shirt message that says something like Boys are stupid. Throw rocks at them!

18 aqsa 12.06.06 at 8:54 pm

one more tragedy of my life…i dont understand “lame” jokes!
:grin:

Not exactly! people do things which are more weird and inane than this..btw your use of lame doesn’t make sense to ME

That’s probably ’cause, and I’ve just realized this, we speak different kinds of English. :)
