That year, this day

 Yesterday morning, a friend of mine, woke up at 9 after ignoring the two previous alarms. This was his usual routine ever since Euro 2012 kicked-off. While struggling to open his eyes wide, he heard someone keeping a coffee mug on the table. That’s it; he said to himself, it’s the final wake-up call. (BTW, I started hating the term “WAKE-UP CALL” after the international tour) So, rubbing his eyes, he headed towards the washroom which  was already occupied. Too lazy to head towards the other washroom downstairs he returned to his room and switched his laptop on. While the computer was loading, he took a few sips of his coffee, saying to himself,”Sher bhi kabhie brush karta hai?”at the same time not realizing that,” Sher kabhi coffee bhi nahi peeta.” By the time he went through four notifications on facebook, the coffee had done its job. He rushed to the washroom which luckily was unoccupied this time. As he was getting late for his office (read Summer Internship) he came out running to switch his lappy off. But as he was doing that, for the third time in 12 years of his computer usage, the clock at the right bottom corner caught his attention. Let’s leave the first two occasions for some other day and concentrate on the third one. The date read 19.06.2012. It occurred to him, that it’s exactly a year now. It was the same day, last year; he shifted to the XIME hostel. He started recalling everything he had been through in this year, so much that he lost track of time. By the time he realized, it was 10:30. And even with his express pace (i.e. getting dry-clean ready, having cereals for break-fast and driving at 140kmph) it would have taken another 45 minutes more. As soon he reached the figure “1 hour 15 minutes late” while calculating, he decided against going to the office and started penning down what he remembered all this while. This is what his diary has to say.

Dear Diary,

Today, I have completed one year in XIME and I must say what an year it has been. However, in the beginning I was terribly disappointed by the college. My idea of a B-School was a 20 acre campus, night canteen where people have a maggi or two while working on their assignments, interactive classes, management fests and liberty of all sorts, which BTW,  was not wrong by any means. A typical B-school in the country, be it from the ivy league like IIM-A,B,C,L,I , XLRI ,FMS , MDI or from tier two like SIBM , MICA , IMT or even from tier 4 like Amity, Bimtech, IILM,  etc. has these salient features. For the first few days in XIME, I was in a state of shock. A 4 acre campus, girl’s in time 9 p.m, class seating arrangement roll no. wise, no management fests, no participation in other college’s management fests gave nightmares to me. After watching Prison Break, I used to wonder how I will feel being inside a prison and Presto!!! GOD sent me to one. It took me some time to realize that you don’t need a state of the art  infrastructure or a set of very lenient rules to have fun, all you need is a good bunch of friends. This is one area where XIME is extremely rich. Where else would you get to live with people from 21 states of the country, play football and basketball with the Americans , going to gym with the Frenchs, having breakfast with Italians and praying with the Russians ( very few will get this one :P)in a tier 2 /3 college. There is so much to learn from each one of them. I learnt that all South Indians don’t use coconut oil for cooking, just Mallus do that and that Punjabis don’t eat chhola bhatura everyday. It’s not just diversity but the talent of the batch which amazed me. For the first month I was in a state of awe, almost everyone was better than me in everything. Performing arts, studies, sports, philanthropy, you name it and these guys can do it, not just do it , do it like a pro. It is them who make your trips to Skandagiri and Wonder La a memorable one, who make you ride 60kms in the night for a cup of coffee. Sometimes I imagine how dull my international trip would have been without them. It is these friendships which make it so very entertaining to sit at the same spot everyday throughout the year. While most of my batchmates are my friends there are still 10 whom I just can’t stand. But then what’s a college life without rivalry. Playing XPL , Xoccer Liga without rivalry would have been a tad bit boring.  In this one year I have had experiences which I will remember for the lifetime. The good part is we still have around 10 months left in this program. And with newly developed, not so subtle changes in college administration and management, we can start afresh. We can negotiate again on the timing of placement week, Fresher’s party, Farewell party, Management fest participation policy, Conducting Management fests, Celebration of festivals of each culture and religion(like the dandiya night which was a tradition in XIME a few years back), Night- canteen and a unisex one at that, Girl’s in-time etc. Just imagine, if we managed to have all this fun with restrictions how much more fun we will have without them. Chances are we will hear a “NO” instead of a “NO-NO-NO-NO-NO”, but it’s still worth a try. We will leave no stone unturned to make this year an ever better one.

Diary, I just can’t tell you how much I am missing my college and how eagerly I am waiting for the 9^th of july. BTW, I am so sorry I won’t come to you for a week as unknowingly I have filled the space till 24-06-2012 , today itself. I hope you will understand, I get a bit nostalgic when it comes to college. See you on Monday, till then take care.

So guys, these were the pages from his diary which he wrote yesterday. FYI, this guy is not me, har baar mai hi hounga kya? And gee I don’t write a diary.

A very Happy Anniversary to all my batch mates and thanks for being there. Friends or foes, my life would not have been as rocking without you.
Cheers

God Bless J

A not so eloquent speech, this

SIGNIFICANCE OF THE SPEECH: This is speech was given by a glossophobic person in front of the President just one day before the mid-term. The speaker had the reputation of screwing up each and every presentation.

Here it goes,

Friends, Indians, Countrymen, lend me your ears.

Before I begin my speech, I want to tell you guys that there are three interesting facts about this speech. But, I will come back to them later.

There are not many things an average person like me can talk about. I have been an average student all my life. I was average throughout my school, my engineering and here too I am working my way towards being average. This speech made me think, Why I am average? 

I grasp concepts quite fast, I have a decent memory and I am not very bad at writing either. I am not bragging about my intellectual prowess here, but these are the things told to me by different teachers who have taught me over the years. After a few hours of introspection, I stumbled upon the reason. The reason was, I don’t study. As simple as that. So, the million dollar question is why don’t I study? Why am I such a waste of talent? No, the answer is not that I am lazy, well partly it is. But more prominent reasons are my priorities and belief system. 

Studies have always been at the very bottom of my priorities. Ironically, the thing featuring at the top, if not the top most is LEARNING. I have always believed that learning through experience is the best form of learning. Most of the MBA colleges today recognizes the importance of learning through experience. Perhaps that is the reason why they offer residential programmes. 

Let me prove how learning through experience is the best form of learning. Let us take, “Learning through experience is the best form of learning” as our null hypothesis and “ Learning through books is the best form of learning” as alternative hypothesis.

Long before I studied Power and Politics in OB, I had a real life experience with it. In my school, the sports teacher used to select the Captain for the football team and then the Captain used to select his team.  By using Politics I became the Captain of the football team. And then I exercised my Powers. I certainly know how, Power and Politics work even though I may not be able to give you exact definition given in Robbins. The topper in OB might know the exact definition but when it comes to coping with it, he/she might have a tough time. Generally, the toppers are the people who try to remain away from Politics. I am generalizing here, but take it as an assumption to support my hypothesis. So, these are the people who inspite of delivering results at the workplace don’t get enough recognition. Hence, we can say that learning through experience is the best form of learning. In my four years of Electrical Engineering, I have learnt this approach. I still don’t know, How an Induction motor starts

.

Most of us here are so much particular about our marks that we loose sight of our primary objective which is learning. They think that these are the years we should give their best and enjoy life afterwards. But, it never happens that way. Mr. Rahul Saxena is the CEO of a very big MNC. He is by far the most successful person I know personally, he is a distant cousin of mine. He always say to me that these are the best years of your life , enjoy it to the core. Maintain the minimum required marks and enjoy the rest of the time.

The Dalai Lama was once asked what surprises him most about humanity. He replied, MAN. Because he sacrifices his health in order to make money. Then he sacrifices money to recuperate his health. And then he is so anxious about the future that he does not enjoy the present; the result being that he does not live in the present or future; he lives as if he is never going to die and then dies having never really lived.

So what we learn from it? Live in the present. Celebrate life. Take some time out to do things you love. Most of us think its too late. Why waster time doing a thing in which we can’t make a career in. Well, it’s not that late. The likes of John Abraham and K.K Menon became actors after their MBA. Gaurav Dagaonkar became a singer after passing out from IIM-A. And even if you can’t make a career out of your passion , never stop doing it because it makes you happy. Or shall I say in OB language, it is intrinsically rewarding.

Remember, at the beginning of the speech I said there are three interesting facts about this speech.

First is, I have deliberately exceeded my time limit. As I have stage fear, I wanted to spend more time in front of the President. Learning through experience, you see.

Second is, the speech is quite controversial. More so, because it is being presented before the President.

And the third interesting fact is that I have made up a few things in order to emphasize my points. For instance, I was never the captain of my school football team AND Mr. Rahul Saxena does not exist. Infact his name is the combination of the names of two of my very good friends, Rahul Singh and Kushagra Saxena.

Hope you guys had a good time.

Thank You

God Bless.

The week that wasn't (there)

All you need is love. But a little chocolate now and then doesn't hurt. - Charles M Schulz.

Valentine’s Day , the festival of love is almost a week away. And as I am a very lovable person, I thought I should share my views on it. Also it’s my very first Valentine’s Day here.

Statuary Warning: This post is not about the bliss, love, affection or the public display of it associated with the day, but about its hard reality. So all you heart patients (figurative) out there, please keep out.

If you trace back the history of Valentine’s Day, you will get different stories. It has been celebrated for ages but never in the way it is being celebrated  for the last 15-20 years. If I am not wrong, in India, it all started with SRK starer Dil To Pagal Hai (1997). Before that, the day was unheard of. So, why the Valentine’s Day celebration gained momentum in the last two decades or so? I will come to that later. First, I should get to the significance of the day.

It’s a day on which a not so popular girl in the final year of college awaits a proposal from a guy who kept staring at her throughout the college but never really talked to her. It’s a landmark day before which every single wants to jump into a relationship and it’s a day on which each and every person who is a part of  a couple, flaunts his/her social acceptance.

For the city I hail from, it’s just a risky outing. With a possible risk of getting married the same day (read Moral Police), only the brave-hearts dare to step out which otherwise is a breezy, lovely afternoon. With the ascent of anti-moral policing movement it has got even riskier. It’s a curse in disguise. The main exponent of this movement is a Women Organization. They make sure that you are unharmed by the moral-police during your outing with your partner. But but but – it’s a women’s organization. There is fair chance that one of the members is your distant relative or an aunty from the neighbourhood. So you can go out that day, alright, but possibly never again. 

So, coming back to the original question. Why the celebrations gained momentum in the last two decades? Well, the answer is simple and obvious. It’s a marketing gimmick, probably a blue ocean one, where new markets were created.  On V-day, gift and card manufacturing firms, chocolate companies etc. can increase their sales by ten folds and more which otherwise was a pretty ordinary day. Imagine we can get away with normal mobile phone tariff on our National Festivals but special tariff is charged on the Valentine’s Day. These days even the political parties are leveraging the popularity of the day (Ambush Marketing). It’s so successful a strategy that for past 5 years or so it has been extended to form what we call a Valentine’s week.

Day 1: Rose Day

Both guy and girl are happy on this day. Girl for receiving a rose and guy because he got through the date merely in ten bucks.

Day 2: Propose Day

This day girl is never happy. She always wants her bf to propose her in the most innovative way possible, and it never happen in real life.

Day 3: Chocolate Day

This day girl is very happy and boy is secretly happy. He knows that half the chocolate he buys for her will come back to him.

Day 4: Teddy Day

This day takes a toll on a guy’s pocket. Girls are elated as their fixation to teddies is well known to the world.

Day 5: Promise Day

A dreadful day for the guys as most of them, 99.84 % to be precise are commitment phobic.

Day 6: Hug Day & Day 7: Kiss Day

The pappi-jhappi days, as I call it. These days are usually used by newly formed couples to escalate bases.

Before I met my husband, I'd never fallen in love. I'd stepped in it a few times. – Rita Rudner

Keep loving, all 365 days a year (366 for this particular one) not just on one particular day or a week.

God Bless :)

B-School Creatures

Hey guys!

How is it going?

First of all, thanks but no thanks for a new name, Ricky Bahl (a few people have rechristened me, lately). I am neither a conman nor I have that charm. There is no connection whatsoever except for the fact that the movie is releasing on my Birthday. I would have preferred Ricky Ponting. Though, I kind of, hate him too.

Well, it’s about 5 months now, since I am in a relationship with this city and institute. And like any relationship, in about 5 months you start recognizing patterns.  Interesting thing about identifying patterns is, some of them give you that much needed edge; some are just useful for giving gyan while for others you wish, you should not have discovered them at the first place. Anyways, oops it’s ANYWAY ,(as I was corrected by someone only to find out that even I was correct, but just informally, that too only in US and Canada) this last sentence has got nothing to do with the post, just wanted to make a point. Yeah, I know it is incorrect usage of anyway. Anyways, it should be “By the way.”  

Please continue reading, even I am still trying to figure out, what I meant exactly. The following part is far more interesting and much simpler to understand.

Based on the traits, personality types, preferences and behaviours, I have classified B-schools students into following categories. Read it and tell me which one are you?

SWAN (Fancy item)

These are the ones who wear expensive clothes. They reply in English irrespective of the language in which the question was asked. They crave for attention and usually get it too. They socialize only with other swans but sometimes mistake a crow for a swan. Generally, they don’t have much money but they give an impression that they own a Rolls Royce. Usually, a female swan falls for a male swan and vice versa.

CROW (The Wannabe fancy item)

These have characteristics similar to swan except for the fact that everything they do have got WANNABE written all over it, that too in upper case. They wear expensive looking clothes and have an accent which will make a BPO guy jealous of them. They speak in English even with a guy/girl from their own region. They socialize only with other crows, and at times with swans, if they get lucky. They too crave for attention and rarely get that. They can’t take down even a simple definition without asking questions. They literally worship swans.

TIGER (The Prince)

These are genuinely good people. They have the money but not the attitude. They are usually quite witty. They never ask stupid question for class participation marks. They are weak in English but great at building relationships. They are the ones who own an Apple or a Blackberry but use them only for texting and calling.

LION (The King)

This species is extinct in some colleges. The basic difference between a lion and a tiger is 20 lakhs their fathers have paid to get them a seat in college along with a license to do whatever they want. They can have characteristics of a tiger or of a swan. They are the ones who come to college in their CRV or Civic.

DOG (The faithful friend)

They are the Stairway to Heaven of college creatures. They are one gem of a species. They are friendly, helpful, caring, affectionate etc. etc. They are the one who will cheer you up when you are down. They will lend you money even when they themselves don’t have it. They will socialize with anyone and everyone. They are extremely popular and are the life of any campus.

DONKEY (The useless hard-worker)

These are the ones who study for 4 hours everyday and still are in the bottom half of the merit list. They go to gym for months (to loose some weight) and end up gaining weight. They always curse God, system and anything they can think of, but it’s never their fault.

TORTOISE WITH WINGS (The winner)

They are complete opposite of Donkeys. They also work hard but are also rewarded for it. They are good in anything they do.

RABBIT (The multiplier)

Usually, a couple belonging to this species is found in vacant class-rooms, empty corridors or a lonely corner. A few brave couples don’t mind doing their things out in the open. They indulge in activities, which virtually everyone enjoys watching alone but label it as cheap and tacky when they are accompanied by someone. They are always on the radar of gossipmongers.

RAT (The Desperate)

The biggest dream of a rat is to become a rabbit one day. The sex ratio of this species is heavily distorted. There are only 56 females for every 1000 males. They want to get into a relationship anyhow and lead a life of a typical rabbit. They have an extremely high failure rate with more than 93% of the population fail to achieve their primary objective.

Note: The first five species are based on personality types and is what I call the major. Nearly everyone of us belong to anyone of the five. Next four are more behaviour oriented and are called the minor. These, generally, varies with time. For example a person can be both a donkey and a tortoise at different points of times. Also, a major and a minor are not mutually exclusive. Infact, they are complimentary. A Lion can also be rat, or a Dog can also be a tortoise.

So here is the Zillion Rupee question. Which one are you?

As you all know, I am from Madhya Pradesh the land of Khajuraho temples, I can screw you guys in more ways than you can count. So, dare not criticise it.

God Bless  :)

The Fairer Sex

Hey !

Hope you guys remember me. It’s been quite some-time since I have written anything. The primary reason for an extended breather is that I am sick and tired of writing about college and my life experiences, which happens to be my signature genre. All this while I was searching for a dhinchak topic, and finally, I found one. Well it is one of the most alluring topics of all time. Geo-politics, para-normal, football, showbiz and all are right up there, but I think “Women” beats them quite comfortably. It is certainly not the easiest of topics to write about. Many great souls have tried and failed but I am going to give it a shot. It’s my Great Leap Forward and I can just hope that it does not go the same way it went for Mao Zeodong. I don’t consider myself capable enough to do justice with a topic as matured as this, so I have looked outside for inspiration. This piece is not entirely mine, it has literally got a lot of Chetan Bhagat in it. And by literally I mean literally not figuratively. So let’s kick-start.

Imagine a world without WOMEN.

There are two schools of thought. One believes that the world would have been a much more peaceful place. Some of the most devastating events in the history of mankind would not have happened. For instance, no Ramayan, no Mahabharat and no battle of Troy. Life would have been a lot simpler, atleast we won’t have to study them. Ofcourse, it would have been a tad bit boring too, with those TV series and movies missing from our lives. But that is a different story.

The other school of thought, of which I am also an insignificant part of believes that without women the world  would be full of messy, aggressive and egomaniacal males , trying to outdo each other for no particular reason. There would be body odour, socks on the floor and nothing in the fridge to eat. The entertainment industry would die. Who wants to watch movies without actresses? There would be no Bond girls, no penthouse, no playboy, no mujra, no cabre and no item numbers. Virtually all shopping malls will record huge losses. Kids would be neglected and turn into drug addicts or psychopaths by age 10. Soon, all-male world leaders would lose their tempers at the slightest provocation, and bomb the guts out of each other's countries. In short, without women and their sanity, the world would perish.

Well it really doesn’t matter to which school of thought you belong to, WOMEN are a reality. So let me start something about women with a cliché, that Women are complicated. Well it’s not really a cliché, it is a classic. And anyways, a cliché is a cliché for a reason. For this particular reason, I am unable to understand some of their choices. Correction – most of their choices. Be it a glittery pink 15000 bucks cell phone or their hair-colour or for that matter their attire on a special occasion. I respect pink, it gives me that metrosexual look, but I can’t stand a pink laptop, scooty or a pen-drive. The weirdest of all is their choice of Men. I have seen prettiest of girls going out with guys with whom even I would not have gone out, if I was a girl. And by my current looks I would not have been more than a 5. Well few girls do have a good taste, as they like me. Well, I appreciate that, I really do. Another interesting fact is that invariably all women are attention seekers. They love to be adulated. They like it if someone constantly reminds them how beautiful or special they are. This is evident from the fact that they spend hours for getting ready for a stupid visit to a shopping mall. Even the best of friends compete for attention, atleast at sub-concious level if not consciously. One very interesting fact about Women is that they have a very high EQ. They know your intentions better than you know yours. Also, they are emotionally driven, they do things based on how they feel and rationalize their actions to themselves later. A little tip for guys, if you can use this thing to your advantage you will be a lot more successful with girls. But the problem with that is they know it too and they are using it to their advantage for ages. Jab ladki kandhe par sir rakh ke roti hai toh ghanta samajh aata hai kya sahi hai, kya ghalat. Women are supermanagers, they don’t need this over-rated MBA. It really fascinates me how a girl can go on a movie with you, then go to a friend’s party in the evening, still able to call you in the night and you are the one who ended the call because you were feeling sleepy and she goes on to score a 85 in the exam next day. In later stage of life, she balances her work, family, social life with much ease. They are exceptional with managing time, money, work etc. Well, I have more facts about women, specially some data on infidelity and all, but let’s save it for some other day.

They say if you can’t get a girl, then by definition you are a sterile. I am neither a player nor an average frustrated chump. These are few of my tips, take it or leave it, your wish.

1.      Never act desperate in front of girls, they can smell it from miles. Even if you are desperate, never show it to her.

2.       Tease her with attention. Give her full attention one day, ignore her completely the next day.  Chances are she will fight for your attention, but only if your attention is worth fighting for.

3.      Keep changing your image between a good and a bad boy. Most girls are attracted to bad guys but gradually bad boys lose their sheen. Once you have made your impression, its better to switch over to a good guy. And by good boy, I don’t mean a wuss.

4.      Try staying out of Friend zone. Make your intentions clear upfront else you might end up being “just friends”.

5.      Don’t play touchy feely guy, if you are not comfortable with it. If a girl feels that awkwardness, game over.

That’s it for the day. If anyone of you is offended by anything written here, keep it to yourself. I don’t give a damn. I am from Madhya Pradesh, the land of Khajuraho temples, I can screw you in more ways than you can count.

Have Fun.

God Bless J

College 2.0

First of all , a very Happy Independence Day to you all . Its been 64 years now and in this span there are atleast 640 things about this great nation , I am extremely proud of and 6400 things , I am not so proud of . By next year I want the numbers to be interchanged . As if now , its like pulling a polar bear out of the hat . But I do have a ray of  hope . As Andy said , Hope is a good thing , maybe the best of things , and no good thing ever dies (Shawshank Redemption ).

Last year on Independence day , my facebook status was “ Whats wrong in showing our patriotic side only twice every year ? Atleast we show it . :X “ Somehow , this year I don’t feel that way .  Will dedicate an entire post to it , but not now , or else I will be doing exactly what I said last year  . Meanwhile , lets get started with something related to the title .

Well after the cultural programme for the Italians , midsems , fresher party , a disciplinary note against my name for bunking library class , QT end term , Independence Day celebrations and a wonderful trip to Wonder La amusement park , finally I am feeling like I am in a college again . And coming back to the party , you guys rocked like anything . Hope you guys also got a glimpse of Nawab and his lifestyle .(Only for those , who have read my previous post )

Two months ago , I was living a fairly decent life . Used to wake up at 11 , sleep again at 2 wake up at 5 . Have a shower , pull on my jeans and hit the road . But used to have a dream , and the dream was to do an MBA from a reputed college in a decent city . These days , I am waking up at 7:45 ( ok ok 8:25 ) , attending classes 9 to 4:30 , making presentations and preparing for tests after that . If I am lucky , I get a chance to explore the city once every week . Here , I am at Bangalore living my dream . And Given the weather in Bangalore I am living a wet dream .

Jokes apart  , many of us (including me ) are quite cynical about this college . No night canteen , girls in time which got outdated even in the 70’s and code of ethics which I guess has more gravity than the constitution of India , are some of the common complaints . But , we need to accept the fact that we are here , and for two long years (atleast :D ). Yes , you could have landed in XYZ college but you can’t do a thing about it now . Ofcourse you have the liberty to opt out of the programme even now , but do that only if you are affluent ( MBA effect) enough , that you didn’t need an MBA at the first place . Yes , we have to sit roll no. wise , 6 days a week 280 days a year . Yes , there is no Sigmund Freud in the pedagogy .( Those who have read his creations would have guessed what I am trying to say :P). Yes , we are at times deprived of even physiological needs as per Maslov’s hierarchy of needs theory , and are asked to achieve self-actualization .( BTW , by physiological needs I meant water in boys hostel , what were you guys thinking ? huh ? ) But dude , thats life for you . No college is perfect .Get over it . You will face or have faced bigger challenges than this outside the campus . For most of us this is the best college we could have got into . If it is not the case , then its your fault and not college’s .  Take pride , you are in one of the best B-school of the country .

Almost everyone out here is in college for the last time . ( Unless you want to take up teaching as a profession or start a new venture in education industry ) So make the best of it  , have fun , be a kid once again , and a very curious one . Live your teenage all over again .Perhaps this is the last chance . Get your first crush for the last time , hit on girls / guys ( as per your gender or orientation ) , have a fling , two time , three time (or as many as you can handle ) , break a few hearts . Perhaps this is the last time , you can afford being a little reckless. Perhaps this is the last time you are spared of responsibilities . Hit the gym , attend a few conference calls (refer HIMYM season 5 ), experiment with ___(ab yeh bhi batana padega kya ? ), take very good care of your sick local guardian .( This one is only for girls :P ), go for out of town trips ( during sembreaks , ofcourse ). Implement what you have learnt in economics , “maximization of satisfaction .” Do anything and everything you can within the law. (of college and country ) Occasional bending of rules is allowed . If Lord Krishna can do it , why can’t we ? Few years later , while sitting in the sea facing cabin of your office  , you will be nostalgic about a particular  “ Tu mera bhai hai moment “ and not about an A+ in OB-1 . I am willing to sacrifice 0.5 lac / annum from my starting salary to experience as many of these moments as I can . But , the big question is “Are You?”  Don’t get too involved in getting an A in a particular subject , instead do something that you love , take some time out for it . Your grades will get you a decent first job , but your passion will help you achieve greatness .

If any girl , by any chance , is inspired by this post ( particularly the last part ) , feel free to hit on me or cheat on your current boyfriend with me . I will try to co-operate to the best of my abilities .:D

If anybody feels offended with anything written here , I am awfully sorry .

GOD BLESS . J
