the second sex!!!!!

Ahh the title itself wud have drawn the ire of feminists....second sex!!!!why second???we are the ones who are the progenitors of entire male species..we are the reason of ur existence, still we have been meted out such a chauvinistic treatment by a nondescript writer like you whose credentials are not even trust worthy!!!!...inspite of this leap of faith whr now we are considered at par wid our counterparts how dare u address us like dis????
whoa......questions hitting me like a bucket of water!!!!!!First there's the shock of it... -BAM!... -right in the face. I'm writing there drenched in anxiety so let me clarify certain things at facevalue before delving any further....first of all what i feel is that we humans have coined up "ists"like "femisnists,sexist,chauvinist,centrist, sadist.."and god knows what nots!!!!! gimme a break guys...dre has to be just one "ist" and dre will be one "ist"called" humanist"...dats the all and end all.....from what experience i had with dis species called girls (yeah it wont be too wise to include women ovr her,so i refrain...)courtsey my various unusual conversations wid my girlfriends and female acquintances....inadvertantly i had nodded my head in disbelief more often than not....lemme surmise what i think about this "hood"called girl...(yeah invariably when it comes to voicing any opinion i donno, out of a blue ,how come such a camraderie is conjured up among dem in no time when they start behaving like not me ,not u..its about "us".......
1)women have this anti-intimacy force field around them. It is powered by sarcasm, humor, and aversion.u try to breach it and blimey u r in for a shock!!!!!i have seen this invariably wid all the girls...it reminds me of what Humphrey Bogart did in that old movie. What was it called? He was like, there are three ways to do things aboard my vessel. The right way, the wrong way and my way. If you do things my way, we'll get along just fine.so as long as u follow their so called code of conduct this anti-intimacy force will repel u for all the obvious reasons...and d moment the cookie crumbles(read u succumb)this anti intimacy force becomes attractive(defying classical physics).....with all arms open....whr whr u whacko!!!!was waiting for u all along!!!!!! Oh, sweet leaping Jesus!!!!and some odr blahs!!!!

2)There are no clearly defined rules between men and women. So, each side thinks they're playing fair and each side thinks they're being cheated. Maybe, this is why men and women have the innate ability to bring out the poison in one another.but one thing i know for sure that the rules of the game are heavily skewed in their favour....like take for a example the game of conversation between the two of dem!!!!!!!
How can a guy have a real conversation with a girl like this when we're made so helpless? In the animal kingdom, when two members of a pack stare at each other, it is a test of dominance. The first one to look away is considered the weaker. When this happens between a man and a woman, the cards are stacked against a man. 'Cause, let's face it, every time a guy meets a girl, he wants to check out her "ohh-sooo-tender-assets". A man must summon all of his will not to look down at those golden orbs, whose wonderous tips are upturned, aimed right at his eyes. Once a man loses his test of nerves, a woman knows she has a great secret power over him, and she can get him do anything she wants. Like a sexual sorceress,her will prevails......poor us..we lost even bfr it started....

3)women have this all pervasive feeling that emotional quotient and responsive stimuli are their
"prerogatives"..as if men cant be emotional,or evn if they have some latent feelings ,how dare you show'em in front of odrs inspite of my mild admonitary glance....dont u dare do it again....
which makes them all the more bossy and domineering which we men strongly protest as in the garb of reservation and empowerment an ulterior motive vests beneath.....to rule the world or did i say consolidate their position as "first sex"

4)i have this gut feeling that women stand for what they say generally.i have across ppl who say something and do something else which makes them slimey hippocrats..but candidly speaking this trait of women makes them all the more adorable.

5)they have this very hedious habbit of referring things from the past..like u said that and now u r saying dis....and the awestrucking part is they remember even the chronology of stmts which we have said and in no time they can reproduce verbatim!!!which kinda p***** boys as it makes our every odr step aimed for redemption look fickle as we had only said that and now we are saying this..cmn gals dre are lotta many things to remember .......these things may sound trifle but in turn it makes u all d more nagging creature ...so,mend ur ways its better late than never..

6)girls are the most patient creature alive on earth..and my thumbs up for that.....i will drive home my point by quoting a very simple example...take for ex shopping....a gals most endearing passtime...but have u ever wondered(hmm lateral thinking)the reason why dey shop for so long ????trying diff shops and purchasing nodin many a times????gocha...the reason is dey are patient enf to look out for various things instead of jumping prematurely to the decison of buying any particular stuff...now compare this vis-a-vis boys and i have no qualms in saying that we are clear losers when it comes to this litmus test of testing patience..we go the shop knowing that what we have to purchase...and then give the look .."see how smart my choice is"....guys really an eye opener....sometimes a vision can be myopic..stop making a jack a** out of urself guys....

7)i have to accept this fact that without girls life would have been very boring,dull and mundane."Flirting "a covetous art wud have died a premature death....as the famous "buddha"once said that beauty is fleeting,so make the most of it..which we boys have followed very loyally in various manifestations like "ogling and staring"...see we are not to be blamed,harmless creatures as we are.....so in essence,acknowledging this fact doesnt makes us feel any inferior as just like what god said to moses upon being asked who u are,"i am what i am"..translating it a tad bit further "we are what we are"...

many more things to say,many more things to write but as i said patience is running off...
bfr i conclude i wud like to write two lines of famous bard of early 20th century "maithilisharan gupta"

"अबला जीवन हाय तुम्हारी यही कहानी,आँचल में दूध और आंखों में पानी "

सौरभ सप्रेम!!!!!!!!

the joy of resignation!!!!!

This sounds weird but totally true...i have started my professional career with resignation....and even thinking about it while writing is giving me a lump in the throat..the way circumstances changes with a blink of an eye has really caught me by surprise.....the sequence of events which unfolded wud give even heisenbergs uncertainity principle a run for d money...but as the cliche goes "all is well that ends well"....so hre i am still alive(in all flesh and blood), kicking and looking forward to my new job......
My brief stay in "philips" was something which i will never forget...rite from the induction programme to the BOOTCAMP seesion(employee training programme)every single moment i spent dre was surreal...it speaks in volumes about the kind of phenomenal work culture which they have developed in due course of time at philips....somethings i will never forget about philips and which i find worth mentioning....
1)its flamboyant CEO ,a dutch guy,whose sublime personality,infectious energy and twinkle in the eyes will put many a youths to shame.....his commitment to work,his presence of mind and above all his sagacity really impressed me.
2)the sprawling PHILIPS INNOVATION CAMPUS ,whose vastness and design ,was in all sense insanely good...right from the fish aquarium in the sanctum of the campus to the super soooper big philips TVS placed hre and dre,everything was so planned that it seemed as if u have eneterd a small universe in itself...
3)the friends which i made dre during this brief stay....we did almost every possible thing in just 10 days togedr which very few ppl wud have even dreamt off.....we played chess near philips NXP(semiconductor division) building which was supposedly a showcase kinda thing and which ppl vre not supposed to tuch...to..things as trivial as me and my friends sighing deeply upon seeing any hot chick as dre was not a single worth looking chick in the new joinees pool...
4th)the souveniers which philips gave me(i mean all of us)like cadbury chocolates ..gosh dey have some secret collabration with cadburys i think.(anything happens dre and out of nowwhr appears a bag full of dairy milks....)and a group photo wid alexius(remember the charming ceo)and odr new joinees...
5th)a 2 hr session by one Mr. bhaskaran who was the head of india centre....to be a part of the audience when bhaskaran sir speaks was a dreamcome true for sure....the precious professional mantras which he gave wud go a long way in my career..
6th)last but not the least the "grossly over"makedup" receptionist"..i wunt forget her....as someone who firmly believes that a receptionist at the entrance is a face of the company...i wont say she was not beautiful...but seeing her in d morning after hopping out from the bus,was comical in its own ssubtle way...it seemed that she had just put the entire "vanity case"on her face....or lemme try to delineate her appearence for my readers....check dis one out....
a)base of her face ie the skin used to shine more than the PHILIPS CFL(and incandescent bulbs and tubes)...and that was courtsey the grossly misappropriate amount of "foundation"cream which she applied on her face...
b)i donno what gals call it probably "eyeliner" which godknows in what way she used ..it seemed to the onlooker that the natural facial features like eyebrows and all ceased to exist in her case..
c)thirdly and most importanly her evr-shrinking-dress-size was enf to raise many a brows and corrobarate the mantra which companies endorse in the times of recession called"cloth cutting"ooooopsssss dint i say cost cutting...
d)her high heels which can be exxageratingly compared to the petronas in malaysia.....it wud really give the physics enthusiasts food for thot that how come her ohhsoo slender heels wud bear her body weight........
ahh enf of description.....

so all in all it was a wonderful 10 days at PHILIPS INNOVATION.....anyways for now i m waiting for my next job joining which is supposed to be on july6th..till den its ..
