This Is It!
Posted by: Siddhartha on: November 2, 2009
Michael Jackson.. The Man. The Legend.
It goes without saying that the spell MJ cast on countless fans goes beyond his music. It was his inner soul – innocent and pure that catapulted the Jackson 5 star into the sky. Watching MJ at his rehearsals for the ‘This Is It’ concert fills me with awe about [...]
The Phlegm Manufacturer’s Association
Posted by: Siddhartha on: October 2, 2009
Nothing is more revolting that standing in front of the wash basin and blowing your nose. With all your might, you force the air out through your nose hoping that the accumulated filth would get aught up the huge thrust generated and fly out in bursts of yellow spendour. People welcome to Phlegm Tour!
Its 7 [...]
The Grease around the axles

I often wonder how the primitive man lived and how his social skills were. The Homo Sapien had rarely more than 20-25 people living in the ‘city’ and everyone knew everyone else pretty well. Hence, even courting and seduction were worth killing for when love was at a high. Any new intrusion in the group [...]

Posted by: Siddhartha on: August 22, 2009
Hey everyone!
I was asked to write something by my teacher for the departmental magazine ‘Chemflash’. I cam up with this during a lecture (as usual ) I doubted if this would be accepted inspite of its tongue-in-cheek nature. But it was.
In a nutshell, my years in undergraduate college are splashed in words below.

A Rendezvous with Prof. Yash Pal
Posted by: Siddhartha on: August 19, 2009
What does it really take to get your message across? Presentations. Bombastic words. Sophisticated light-and-sound. Sound creative advertising? Maybe.
Or, perhaps, a simpler form of this mixed bag can come along and make an impact more profound and more essential than whats secondary. Professor Yash Pal’s words to an august gathering at AMA, Ahmedabad was just [...]

Looking for inspiration?
It’s strange – the excuses we put forth to put off what is important
‘Oh! I don’t feel like getting to the task. I am moody, you know!’
‘I am so busy, for God’s sake’
The test match just got interesting and I am shouting ‘Come on India dikhaado!’
You think you need the spark, the inspiration
That [...]
All for the senses

Neale Donald Walsch wrote in ‘Conversations With God’ that the message from God to Man is “There is only one purpose for all life and that is to experience life in its fullest glory”. If this message reached everyone on Earth, they would ‘care’ a little more for themselves. Everyone would consider his life, [...]

Its been quite sometime, eh? Well, post-exams was in a holidaying mood. I had been home gorging on tasty bengali paayesh, finger-licking fish, delectable raajma and fried rice. Two days of some wonderful time and returned back to Ahmedabad today.
Anyway, today is the second day of Holi – a huge festival of Hindus worldwide which [...]
Getting ‘back’ to work!
Posted by: Siddhartha on: February 22, 2009
We waste hours in trying to save minutes!
There is profound truth in this statement. Just stamp those words on your mental blackboard ‘coz you’ll need it when you realize how often you waste your time. Not because its leisure time. But because its that time you tag as ‘Work’ and it neither gets utilized as [...]
Ringa Ringa Roses!
Posted by: Siddhartha on: February 15, 2009
The world exists but in your perception!
How true! We are so caught up in our miniscule world of self-consciousness and self-obsession, whether we are aware of this or not, that we don’t even open our eyes to the different hues spattered on walls of the world around us. Rare chances are showered upon us and [...]
