Is he really dead?

Is the war finally over?

Wear something black tommorow, not to commemorate his death

To show that the leader maybe down but we still have all our tamillians in our hearts..

They might have won the battle but definitely not the war..

Hail Vellupilai Prabhakaran....

Tamil Eelam!!!!!!

To catch a Copycat

2009-05-17T13:02:00.000-07:00

So i asked her...

And she said copycat..

What is a copycat literally?

It is one who imitates others' work without adding ingenuity.

In this world we have 2 kinds of people

1.The people who are all conquering exploring new frontiers always willing to try something new, the kind of people that others look up to and want to be like.

2. The second group are people labelled as contented, those that follow others foot steps.... also
known as copycats.

To general opinion the former group would certainly be the ''in'' group to be in. Don't we all want to be pioneers of something. Whether its creating a new rocket to fly the galaxies or making the red Adidas pullover the latest fad, we , big or small, old or young, want to start something new. We want to be unique. To have our own identity. There is nothing wrong in that.

But do not undermine or underestimate the latter group.
In life u don't always have to do something new. If a tried and tested method works why not follow it. Do not get me wrong, I'm not referring to plagiarism of any sorts. I'm merely talking about following an already set path and improvising on it to suit your own needs in life.
Always remember that its cool to be unique but in trying to be unique you can also fall flat on your face if what you do doesn't comply with the norm of the general census.

Just like that, unique can become weird.

Martyrs can be labelled terrorists.

And heroes can become zeros.

It is a risk you take and for some people that risk simply isn't worth taking.

Instead these people choose to take the road already trodden openly without fear of being labelled a copycats.They prefer to lead comfortable lives at peace with themselves rather than live in fear of chancing risk and fate.

And now you are probably thinking, to hell with them i choose to be unique and that's the way i am.....the risk taker, the go-getter, the one that never follows 'the herd mentality'.

Now, think properly, have you never been a copycat??

That new pair of shoes you have which your friends separate you from the rest for being unique.Why did u pick it up? Because you saw it on some model and thought it looked good?

That red saree you wanted after seeing it on an actress on tv( no pun intended :P).The want for it is because you saw it looked good on someone else and contemplated how it would look on you.

The Ferrari which you have the luxury of buying that makes u different from the rest. But didn't you see someone looking good in the car or someone speeding in that car that made you want to buy it??

Does that make us all copycats?? Maybe so..I'm sure many of you would love to beg to differ.

But all i ask is this, next time if someone plagiarises work with no improvisation whats so ever then call the person a copycat. But even if there is the teeniest amount of change then let it go, its just someone trying 2 move along in life following a path that is preexisting to ensure a smooth journey ahead.

As they say its not easy to catch a copycat.

penning out for now,

My life would suck without you

2009-05-17T12:01:00.000-07:00

Its like ive lost a part tht belonged 2 me....

I hope that someday you being true to ur words come back n complete me..

My life would suck without you.

Guess this means you're sorry
You're standing at my door
Guess this means you take back
All you said before
Like how much you wanted
Anyone but me
Said you'd never come back
But here you are again

'Cause we belong together now, yeah
Forever united here somehow, yeah
You got a piece of me
And honestly,
My life (my life) would suck (would suck) without you

Maybe I was stupid for telling you goodbye
Maybe I was wrong for tryin' to pick a fight
I know that I've got issues
But you're pretty messed up too
Either way, I found out I'm nothing without you

'Cause we belong together now, yeah
Forever united here somehow, yeah
You got a piece of me
And honestly,
My life (my life) would suck (would suck) without you

Being with you
Is so dysfunctional
I really shouldn't miss you
But I can’t let you go
Oh yeah

'Cause we belong together now, yeah
Forever united here somehow, yeah
You got a piece of me
And honestly,
My life (my life) would suck (would suck) without you

'Cause we belong together now, yeah
Forever united here somehow, yeah
You got a piece of me
And honestly,
My life (my life) would suck (would suck) without you

Psyched About It

2008-09-25T08:47:00.000-07:00

Ok..

rather fast for a 2nd post..

But i just needed to pen my thoughts down on something. Im currently a med student in my 2nd year. All through out people have come up and asked me what i would like to specialize in. And up till today that question always stumped me. What kind of a med student am i if i have no liking, interest or inclination to any specific part of the field.

The prune is obssesed with surgery.

Mannie has taken a liking to skin.

Everyone has their own liking or their thing...Like im gonna specialize in this n blah blah blah..

People automatically assume that i would be interested in pathology since my dad is in the field,
and maybe ive not given it much of a chance but the subject bores me to death. Forensic is just too story book like...

And i resigned myself to the fact that i might just take whatever comes once i complete my degree or throw a dice n let fate decide.

That was how i felt until today.

I started my 3rd minor posting and for the first time i actually felt a tingling sensation as i spoke to the doctors, observed the patient and listened to the history of the field.

Psychiatry.

It stimulated me today the way no other medical field has done before. The wonders of the human mind. How until today we still are researching the causes and cures for so many illnesses we hear in the everyday news.

Alzheimers, Schitzophrenia,dementia...

The ability to want to learn and find out more has eluded me for a very long time.

But tommorow when i walk into those wards i know that finally something interests me.
It is the medical specialty which exists to study, prevent, and treat mental disorders in humans.

Fyi, the word psyche derives from the ancient greek word for soul.

finally, im psyched about something! :)

A new beginning

2008-09-25T07:48:00.000-07:00

The title says it all.
A new beginning. A new blog. A new person.

I did something yesterday. Something i never imagined doing in a long time.

I was sitting on top of a hill with someone i would have never expected to meet again in life watching the sun set in the distance. And the joy that went through me at that moment was unexplainable. Life has given me a new beginning.

Everyday talking and being with her is a constant reminder that in life we dont always get what we ask for in life.

Make do people might say?.

NO.

We just need to learn to appreciate and be happy with what we have.

When we stop yearning for more, thats when we finally get everything we want.

Gods biggest mystery in life.

Ive finally let go of the past.

And it feels good. No regrets but also no looking back.

And to the young lady that made me start this blog, i promise you this blog will get more interesting...after all, it is a new beginning :P

Comprehend what i say?
