To My Best Friends

This post is entirely about my best friends Sindhu, Bala Abhirami, Jyothi, Jeelan, Jay and me. Everyone except Jyothi are my Masters friends, jyothi is my btech friend. Sindhu, bala, jee, jay and I were the 5 member batch and always moved as a group in the first semester of my Masters.

I met Jeelan and Jay in the Java class and I think I was the one to first introduce myself to them. Then came in Sindhu who was introduced by me into the batch. Within short time we became good friends and basically I think this was because we had common interests, same kind of inclination towards studies and being a responsible person. Sindhu, me and jay are alike short tempered and moody at times. But jee he is completely a Gandhian, in our 2 years of MS none saw him shouting or scolding anyone. Well my other friend jyothi is also pretty much the same as Jee. She is very quite and patient.

My first semester is worth remembering. Our favorite spot for combine study was the lower stacks in the library, where along with studies we used to chit chat. Sometimes we used to talk or laugh so loudly that others sitting there used to get disturbed. We did bunk classes too mainly Prof. George Blank class. And we always enjoyed the long walks all the way from our college to Jeelan and Jay house or Bala, Sindhu's house in Kearny sometimes. Forgot to tell you we always had this little discussions on any topic like technology, politics, world news, movies, and about each ones plans in the future to name and friendly humor rather than gossiping always whenever we met. Each one had their own goals and we did work really hard to achieve it.

I may not express in a good way about them in my blog. But I really thank them for bearing my nonsense talk at times and for being with me at good and bad times. I am very very lucky to have them as my friends and I hope we never will break our friendship in future.

I never mentioned of my other friends here. Though I lost in touch with them I still remember them a lot. Fathima, Pavani, Ayesha, Venitha, Gowtham(my 6th classmate), Waseem, Prasanthni, Anita....

There are many funny memories assosciated with my friends in NJIT. I definitely need to mention those here about how Jeelan sitting in the Data Structure and Algorithms morning hour class used to doze off and how me and Bala sitting besides him both pinched him to wake him up whenever the professor saw. 

And about our Distributed Systems class in the big step-up auditorium class where we(Jeelan, Sindhu nd me) always occupied the last row. Well the lecture used to be so boring so we used to do our own works finishing off the assignments and so on.. Sindhu once wanted to check some movie site and when she opened it, there was this big sound with her speaker of the laptop on full volume "Congratulations, You have won a Apple Ipod" :):)  in between a serious lecture with pin-drop silence. Everyone from the front rows turned to see who it was and we were acting as if we didn't know what happened :) 

Terrorism and War on What?

Last week there was a small discussion with a group of my friends on the terrorist acts. This started as we happened to read the news on the bomb blasts in Bengaluru, Ahmedabad and in Hyderabad which occurred months back. At that time I also happened to watch the National Geographic documentary Inside 9/11 War on America. I was rather shocked and literally shivered when I watched these videos depicting the smart moves of these terrorists(finding loopholes in the security).

I wondered that, if such a Supreme Power Country could not counter the terrorist acts, then how about the developing nations like in INDIA. Its a highly unsafe place and we don't even have the finest resources or money to uncover the plots of these terrorism and stop them before hand from happening.

What's surprising when I watched these videos was to see all these plots were carried off by well educated people who stupidly believed when somebody preached saying it's written in their holy books to kill and torture the other sect people and God will reward you for that. How stupid is this, Do they really don't understand that God will never reward such people but rather punish them real hard. And don't they understand that all these preachings are cleverly planned acts of the wanted A-list criminals to fulfill their idiotic thoughts. They either misinterpret their holy books or manipulate the real context in it according to their thoughts. No holy book or a real holy preacher will preach such things. Well its saddening though that these people still believe in these meaningless preachings or whatever.

Understand that if you are supporting terrorism or terrorists and such acts you are clearly making a unsafe world to live in for your future generations by creating rifts between nations.
If you want to die then die but don't kill other innocent people along with you who sometimes never even know why they are unnecessarily being killed for and why such acts are being carried off.

Well what brought the 9/11 act? They killed many people and then the supreme president decided to wage war against the Iraq as a repay. Both the terrorist act and the war resulted in loss of many people and plunged the country into a severe recession. Needless to say people who are alive are even hit badly by these after effects of both war and terrorism.

Well I never believed a person's idea can change the world either for good or bad. But it did see these stupid, wickedly/dangerously smart person who masterminded the terrorist act is sitting somewhere peacefully and enjoying his act where other people rather say the entire world is suffering due to it.

And guys wherever you are think before you do any such acts, don't become a pawn of the masterminded criminals and please don't kill others in the name of power or GOD.
