I was writing a lot of real life stuff lately and wanted to write some fiction now for a change... Here is my hand at fiction... Let me write a Disclaimer before people start asking me if this was me and questions like that... :)
All characters appearing in this work are fictitious. Any resemblance to real persons, living or dead, is purely coincidental...
It often happens that the small things in life have a larger impact on who you are and what you become... Though things like money and property play a big role it is the hug from mom, a smile from a friend and things like this that stay in your memory for a very long time...
This is a story about a guy who has his first separation from someone real special in his life(of course a she)... Though she doesn't know he likes her, she admires him secretly(But this story is from the guys perspective)... The stage is set in in a class where the guy and the girl are sitting and writing the last exam of the year... Though the class is full of students he imagines himself being alone in class just with her around... Even the thought of it gives him goose bumps and he craves for such a moment...
The exam gets over and the moment that everyone waits for becomes the moment he laments... He gets out of the class right before her and picks his bag and helps her find her bag too... What do I talk to her (think think, think fast)...
He: Hey how was your exam.. How did it go (how stupid was that, why cant I talk like those guys)...
She: It went well.. What about you..
He: Ya it went pretty well....
Then the awkward silence.......
He: Hmmmm so what plans for the vacation... What plans...??
She: Will go down to my hometown... You going anywhere...
He: Nope I am from here so will be at home only... Nothing much to do.. If you were here we could have met some day(what will she think of me for telling that)...
She: Ya we could have may be but then I wont be here...
He: Hmmmm ya ya..
Then again the awkward silence.......
She: Ok then let me get going I have a train to catch... Bye.. Take care.. See you after the vacations...
He: OK byee... (Secretly hoping she doesnt go, Please dont go)
Wish I could somehow stop her from going, but by every second that passes as she walks away step by step getting farther away... Wish I could freeze this moment somehow...
Nothing happens as she walks away, and he keeps on looking at her till her silhouette vanishes into thin air... He knows she will be back to college once it starts but he still watches on in anticipation if she would magically appear from somewhere... But nothing happens....
It are moments like these that remain with us to the end... Like I said before its the small things like this that play a bigger factor... Let us enjoy and live such moments...
Well i did a lot of Brainstorming to name this blog hence the name Brainstorm. This blog will have my motorcycle diaries and few other reviews of movies and books... and of course the general masala in everyday life.. ;)

Smuggling students...
It was in middle of engineering when the great VTU banned students from using cell fones in college... And people from my college took the word from VTU so seriously that they took it to totally another level...
There were 2 check posts set up in college in the morning, one at the gate where there were 2 guards frisking everyone that enters the campus and another check post near the main block where people coming out of the parking lot were frisked... Security level in college was totally beefed up and people with anything flashy in their hands were frisked spontaneously by bad mouthed security guards, this was worse than Section 144...
Well inspite of all this people including me used to smuggle in fones into college... To counter this they organised surprise checks during classes and during labs... Again as far as we were concerned we really dint give a damn about it... :)
Now the question everyone would be asking is how did I and others manage to smuggle in the fones... Now we do stay in India and when terrorists can come in and go as they will we can smuggle in small cell fones into college... Some people stuffed it deep in their socks and some in their pants too... I dint wanna try all this as it was too risky for various reasons... :)
One fine day when I woke this thought occured to me why dint I think of this before... ;) Well this is what I did, I took an old hard bound notebook and cut through the pages in the center this created a cavity inside to store fones inside it... It looked something like this... :)


And here you have it, you could put the fone inside and hold the notebook in your hand and could smuggle in the fone right under their noses at any time of the day... :)
Have a great weekend guys... :)

Black board tragedy... PART 2 Appeal and Hearings...
This second day of the tragedy while issue at hand had actually sunk in and by this time I was contemplating on the future plan of action rather than what had happened... I told mom what had transpired in college and after a much debate and convincing at home she agreed to come along with me...
Next day in college was another disaster.. I learnt another lesson... There are two kinds of people with power... One kind use the power when it is required and the other kind who show their power just to prove they wear the pants... I met both these species on this particular day and out found how to find such people from under their skins...
Mom and me waited for a couple of hours just to meet the princi who was just sitting in his chamber having tea and biscuits while he wanted to make us wait just to prove he was the alpha male... Finally he called us and Gouthams dad into his room and started off his rambling..
Pricipal: So you people are the parents of these rowdies, this is an act of total indiscipline and indeference.
Me: Sir but this was a total accident we dint mean to break the board...
(That took him totally off guard, he dint expect me to back answer him, my first little victory)
Pricipal: I dont know all that, i think we have to rusticate you from the college(He told this to prove that he was the alpha male and the reason that i had intimidated him)
Gouthams dad: Sir this is totally unreasonable, i think we can pay for the board instead of spoiling their future.
Principal:(in his mind, now we are talking) Calls his secretary and says get that ledger...
Me:(Saw a sinister smile on the fellows face, if its money you wanted you should have asked before)
Principal:(well it was the marks ledger that she got, Looking at our mid term marks he was stunned he had least expected the toppers of the class to do such a thing) Well you guys seem to be doing well in class, why did you do such a horific thing..
Me and Goutham at the same time: Sir it was an accident...
Principal: OK fine.. I think the board costs about 4k you can get it replaced by paying 2k each...
What happened after this was something that i had least expected to happen...
Me: Thats too much to pay sir, i dont think we can afford so much...
Principal: OK then you can pay 1k each..
Me:(WTF was that did he just reduce the money he asked, now i pounced) Sir we cant afford that much too we can pay a max of 500 Rs...(This was a blady fish market)
Principal: OK then you can pay money to the cashier and take reciepts for it.......
Me and everyone with a sigh of relief that we got a good deal done....
Paid the fellows and got reciepts, this was one incident which made me believe that shit happens with everyone but then, thats why they invented toilet paper to clean it off.. :)
See you later guys till then Maja madi... :D

Black board tragedy... PART 1 The broken Shards...
We would have learnt lots of lessons from the black board... But there are things that the board has taught me, which I am sure no one else has even dreamt of learning...
One such incident for the readers of this blog... :)
One lazy afternoon in my 1st PUC class room... After the usual change of class there was a big ruckus in the classroom... People talking and shouting and you know the normal stuff that inevitably happens in every classroom when there is no lecturer in the classroom(ideally)...
I get a brainwave in my devious little devil of a mind...
Me: Macha goutham you pretend like you are pushing me and i will go fall on someone da...
Goutham: Seri da, nice idea... :)
1st launch- Successful
Me: thud... :) Sorry macha goutham pushed me off... ;)
2nd launch- Successful
Me: Thud.. No dude he pushed me.. dont take tension... ;)
3rd launch- Target acquired (But target had already seen the earlier launches so he was eluding the attack)
Goutham: Macha we ought to get him da...
Me: Ya ya macha seriously.. Push me...
Goutham: Here you go (with a shove)
Me: Running from the push... ;) Behind the target and goutham running behind me we had no clue where we were heading to... Target in the front, me behind him and goutham behind me... The next second before we know a huge noise...
The three of us rammed into the black board shattering it to pieces... And down came the whole board with an even bigger sound...
The whole class was pinched with silence with what had transformed... With the three of us in the spotlight.. The class was divided half of them were scared what would happen to them the other half were happy there wont be any classes for sometime... :)
And in came the Hitler with the army our HOD... By this time we were all back to our places like we dint know what had happened...
HOD:(Totally furious,at the top of his voice) Who did this...
Class: Totally silent.. (Me, Goutham and target please dont say it was us)
HOD: If you guys dont tell me who did this your whole class will be suspended...
Again the class was divided, one half were scared they will loose their classes and the other were happy that they wont have classes... But still the whole class decided to be silent... :)
HOD: OK that does it.. Now for the personal interrogation... You there tell me who did it...???
Student: I dont know sir i was out at that time...
HOD: You... Then you.. you...
it kept on going till it reached the target... This time he couldnt elude the HOD's clutches... I had my heart in my mouth...
Target: Sir Deepak pushed me to the board and i fell on it sir...
Me: (Damn thats the first nail on my coffin, Well if i am going down i am going down in a glory and with company) Sir goutham pushed me and i fell on Target sir...
Goutham: Sir it was totally an accident sir i tripped on the dias and fell on Deepak who in turn fell on the target and smashed the board...
Me: (Well that was pretty much on target) Yes sir thats what happened.. It was a total accident...
HOD: You stupid fools... Who do you think you are... Blah blah blah... dah dah dah... Che che che... #$%%# #% *%%#&% %*#&.. Beep Beep Beep Beep....
Me:(Shaapaaa.. Thank god its over) Sir we are sorry sir.. This wont happen again(I would be damned if i do such a thing again) it was an accident sir...
The infamous three in unison.. We are sorry sir..
HOD: Nothing doing... I want to meet your parents first thing tomorrow morning.. Till then you guys are suspended...
There was no plea or an appeal at high court... We were just damned by the Sessions court without any chance of a bail plea... :( Doomed for life till our next hearing... This time in the evidence box would be our parents...
To be continueed...???? :D

Up up and away..... :)
Well here I am again to write another review.. I was feeling all sad that my last 2 posts were about sad things and wanted to write something good and happy... Sunday afternoon lying lazily I decided to watch the animated movie UP and that was the one of the best decisions I made the whole day... :) I had missed this movie earlier in the theatres due to various reasons but then better late than never... :)
To talk about the movie, the way the movie starts is just too beautiful... The movie goes in a symphony and you just start moving with the music... The way a guy and a girl fall in love because of the common interests they have.. How they save up money to go to South america but because of some or the other family reason they use their savings and before they realise they are old in the daily struggle of life... The melody with which the story moves on is just too much to handle... :) Every scene is so moving and it just makes you feel so connected...
Then the whole gas balloon thing carrying the house was nicely pictured, it might sound a little stupid but then one must remember that its an animated movie... The rest of the movie carries on forward with the other characters playing their roles beautifully with some real good humour which made me laugh like a kid... :)
Overall a beautifully made movie which left me totally satisfied and happy with the whole story... Pixar just out do themselves each and every time they release a new movie... Way to go guys... :)

2012 Disaster of a Disaster movie.... :(
Ah here i am writing my first movie review on my blog.. :D
The fact that I am writing my first review excites me but the point that the movie turned out to be crappy totally makes me unhappy... It was one movie i was looking forward for from a very long time... But like everything in 2009 the movie just let me down and turned out to be a total disaster..... :(
I am surprised that Some people actually ended up liking the movie.. I got a headache watching the damn movie... Some of the bad points of the movie...
1) The movie was totally unreal.
2) The scenes were so repetitive the same old scenes were shown some 15 different times.
3) The movie was a 3 hours long and the show was not appealing...
4) The story was stitched well.
Now for the good points..
1) The problem was found by an indian and the ship was built by the chinese now thats spot on...
2) The way Yuri starts the Bentley saying "Engine start" that was damn cool and i was the only guy in the theatre laughing and clapping..
3) The CGI is pretty good..
Overall i feel the movie was a waste of time and a disaster of a disaster movie... :( Another movie that let the vieweres down atleast me.. :(
