HOPE

When things were going gr8
there came a break,
bringing loads and loads of problems
into the ever problamatic life.
When the person u trust the most
doesnt understand you,
and you understand
why they dont understand you.
It's the worst of the times
that makes you think it can never be better,
but i still do wake up tomorrow morning
with a thought in my head,
that soon things are going to be alright
because without hope what is life.

Free Hugs

Okay, so many of us might have noticed the new song jiya se jiya of the latest album connections by the maestro AR Rahman. So a nice concept was shown there ‘FREE HUGS’. There are many a times when all you wanna do is hug someone tight. You feel like hugging someone when you are happy or sad or for no reason. But one thing for sure a hug does make us feel better. Puts a big smile on your face like this :-).

Initially the concept of free hugs was started by a man who is known by all as Juan Mann. It all started on June 30th, 2004, when he landed on Sydney feeling all dejected. Looking all around him he found people hugging each other greeting their loved ones. Having no one to hug him, he took a cardboard and a black marker and made a sign saying “FREE HUGS”. He went to the busy Pit Street Mall and held the sign for a whole 15 minutes when finally an elderly woman tapped on his shoulder for a hug. She was grieving for the death of her dog and her daughter’s first death anniversary. And being alone now, all she wanted in this world was a hug. Juan went down in one knee and hugged her tight and found her smiling when she walked away. This made him realize that everybody in this world could do with a hug. And what better way rather than to give it free. There was also a ban on his free hugs, which was later resumed after around 1000 peopled signed a petition for him. In the mid of 2006, a band, Sick Puppies published a video in youtube “All are one”, which became the official Free hugs video campaign….

Now FREE HUGS has reached INDIA. With AR Rahman’s jiya se jale playing everywhere, we can be assured that there is going to be spreading of more love in this world

I'm feeling lucky

So every one of us use GOOGLE. To find some information about anything that happened in the past or present or future we have google. U want something, google it. So we all know how to find stuffs in google. But have you noticed there is another button next to Google search. I myself didn’t pay much attention to it till my dad asked me what it was for. My answer ‘I Dunno’. So if you click on I’m feeling lucky without mentioning anything in the text box, this is what u get...

The "I'm Feeling LuckyTM" button automatically takes you to the first web page returned for your query.
An "I'm Feeling Lucky" search means less time searching for web pages and more time looking at them.

So if u want to save time, and find the most relevant page for your query all you got to do is ….. FEEL LUCKY!!!

About me...

Hi Folks,

Being my first blog , I thought I should write something about me. So here it is……………
I’am known to everyone as Arathi Bhaskaran. At present doing my 3rd year engg. Iam the kind of person who thinks everything happens for your own good. I love music. Not much of a singer though(bathroom singer), but I do manage to sing at the top of my voice at home which somehow irritates my sister. I enjoy playing guitar(no smirks pls)(Iam good at it,believe me),and is a good form of venting anger by strumming really hard and loud. Unwinding myself is easy, as all it takes is a ride on my bike singing songs to myself and that wind rushing on my face makes a me a new person altogether. I love watching movies, as they make me laugh, cry, even think. I love photography. I think it’s an art to capture right emotions at the right time. People who know me well will definitely agree with the next line. Iam bit of a CHATTERBOX. I love having friends all around me anywhere and everywhere. Just can’t live without them. As of now this is what iam.
