" I tell you out of experience"

The probability of something good happening is 0.5 and same with bad..
Probability is highly associated with the term uncertainty which at the end of the day is a gamble. As far as its left to aggressive and stubborn souls its fine but sometimes its happy to remain uncertain even if the payoff is same as being certain.
What lures rather itches the human mind is the positive consequence of moving from uncertainity to certaininty.
Management schools walls reverbrate with the phrase "my dear students, change is constant"
The external environment keeps changing. demanding the rules of the game to be changed.
One lesson that they do not teach you at schools is that people change.
Core might be the same..good or bad....but still
people change, people move on, people are manipulative, people are not to be forgranted to remain the same,people say things they do not mean.
Tommorow is not what today is like....at the end of the day, its us people who change the rules affecting the environment by and large and one industry which has adopted this concept beautifuly is the film industry.
In a movie there is a protagonist....in MBA there is no protagonist...and even if they call some one a protagonist, he is one who is struggling to come to a decision from a situation, which in turn is created by the real protagonist. If the sub prime crises has to be made into a movie, it surely will be rotated around the person whose selfish idea bought the whole world crashing down.
As Galileo Galilei quoted - nothing can be taught to the human mind, everything has to be learnt and according to me it surely has to be the hard way.
A decision good or bad taken, has to walked every step sweet or otherwise and learnt.
Maybe that is why every one cherishes school and college life till death.
Once education is imparted, and once you step out of college gates everything in life has to be learnt.
Be it meeting people, going to places,getting into relationships(love and hate), earning money, nothing is taught.
May be that is why we say "i tell you out of experience" rather than "i tell you out of education".
Setting one's own rules, puts themselves to gamble, either in the short term or long term.
In real life, people are picked to be used, are used up and thrown.
It's upto us if we are picked in a positive sense or
It's upto us how long we choose to carry on the burden of gamble like a burning cauldron on our hearts
AND
never ever totally believe in a random event, cause nothing hurts like randomness...(when the event backfires)

Totally sick of the apply, apply and no reply phase of life

One phase of life

Sometimes, when you look deep into life, you realise that life really has no answers. We attach answers. We have been doing that for quite some time and we do it without any second thoughts till the last breath because we think that is the only way we do it.
At times, life can be confusing. You can be 25,30,35,40….,70 or above and still do not know what to do with life. Famous (not successful) are those who know what to do with their life.
Caught in the intricacies of life, sometimes I wish people can take ‘I do not know’ for a genuine answer, because going with the flow can be really painful after a while rather than standing out of the crowd and looking confused and bemused.

Loo and Behold

Since, am currently weighing my options of going to India for good against staying in Singapore for few more months,me and my friend were discussing the advantages of one country over the other.
For starters, we started on this very interesting topic : Loo
Defined: a closed space to fulfil your very natural biological reaction.
The perspective at which these two countries look at the loo is quite different. Like they say good manner starts from the family,I guess Loo manners also start from the family.
In India,The child is asked to go to the loo quietly without asking for any kind of permission.
Generally parents are quite keen about the movements of the kids and thus ask the kid where she/he is going and if they find out its loo, the child is asked to just shut up and go.
I wonder why our government considers going to the Loo, such a taboo.
Cause every time you need to leave the house, you have to make sure that you empty your bladder. Its a house thingly only. Do it in your house only you know.
And men enjoy a different kind of freedom in loo manners.
They twist the definition of loo a little and remove the two terms: closed space.
They are not quite that bad. They do not make it open, they remove three walls of a closed space.Here, sometimes government takes initiative and sends a guy to paint “do not p*** here” on the wall. That guy needs to be paid the highest compensation in Indian history for the daredevil job.Due to continuous flow on the wall, the word Not disappears after a while, which stimultes an urge when read.
Now,now, even if you find a loo somewhere :
1. there are inbuilt inhibitions in the heart which keep sending stimulus to the brain like: a little more time, you are going home
2. there are no tissue papers. cut the cost of a tissue paper, employ a watch man /watch woman who wants to know wether you are going to p***/s*** inside those four walls (as if she is conducting a survey of indian p***/s*** habits and their timings) and charges a little more than usual to the former biological reaction and a little exhorbitant for the latter.Now you might wonder, how on earth the watch man/woman gets to know what happens inside the four walls. He/She keeps a note of time and takes no inhibitions in asking if you were really P***/S*** ing inside. Now, now, now p***/s*** ing is NOT for free my dear. The tax you pay is not counted for your p*** and s***
3. Ofcourse, the stink. The watch man/woman outside is someone sitting there and making free money. They are not supposed to clean the loo. Upon asked, you might be asked to cleanit yourself in return. There are no exhaust fans. There is this circular hole on the upper portion of the wall which leaves you wondering, if the whole itself functions as a circulator of air(inner to out and out to inner) That ways you can spot or rather smell a public loo from distance
4. There are no flushes. If you strongly believe in the phrase"the one who came last made the loo dirty" you will end up cleaning a lot of people's biological waste
5. There is not a single mirror any where. It's probably lying on the walls of the watch man's/watch woman's home.
6. There is no hand dryer. You are supposed to rub your hands on the side of your thighs. Hell yea...thats why you are wearing clothes.
7. There is no light. The exhaust hole radiates a beam of light. What do you need light for????? Finish you work and be happy
8. Loo is the place for people to be creative. They bring out the best of erotic fiction. DO NOT GO TO THE PUBLIC LOO IF YOU HAVE CHILDREN WITH YOU, else you might just have to end up giving a lecture on the laws of nature or end up creating a creative sci -fi
AND FINALLY....if you encounter any of the above seven, you are one lucky soul cause the watchman/woman usually lock the loo and misplace the key on Day 1 of their work or the inaugral of the loo (whichever is the earliest)and are snoring at their home
