The rebound









I waited for the rain

Clouds clashed

It rained

Sky cleared.

But the stars didn't appear brighter.

                                                        Foolish me, dust would be washed off the city lights too.

My little sisters' new year resolutions

These are my cousins......looking cute na?
Here are their new year resolutions
a)Eat less:What? Really? I don't get what these sweetie pies need  eat less for....I need to lose weight but them?I can't just figure out..
b)Increase the number of friends on FB:They are literally in constant competition with each other as to who has more friends on facebook.They count every single name and are constantly sending friends' requests to those they don't know.Quantity dear quantity.
c)Buy more dresses and knee long boots: They have gone crazy over dresses and they want Anna Hathaway style long boots. Good for them.Way to go girls!
d)To keep long nails(and hide from the teachers at school): They want long nails and have arts done on them...And obviously hide from teachers but show off to friends.
e)To get good grades: It is also on their wish list.They are a bit lazy but are real smart.
Just hope they smile always.They are such sweethearts.

The slow MOE

Ministry Of Education


I just don't understand why everything has to be so slow in the MOE(obviously in other ministries too). Yesterday,the pre nominations were out and had to be there on office time. The queue was really long and guys were disgusting. LAughing at silly things. Checking out girls. I mean hello! We are there for the academica related stuffs right? Stop showing your true colours even there!
Yeah back to the MOE. The staffs work slow, act like they are our bosses, give us "I am powerful "stare, bring all not so needed formalities in between, make things as hard as they can for us, try to show they are really tired from the hard work(all that they do is sit on chairs and move their hands with an unhappy look), come fifteen minutes late, leave half an hour early, shout at us as if we have curtailed their salaries, don't ever smile, never reply after a thank you(am never going to be that polite again), make us come again an again. There are rarely cases when one has had completed the paperwork on a single day. And the guards on the gate are grumpy. One uncle guard called me "didi" the other day.....
Whatever,still happy that am going to do medicine. And these days, I don't complain a lot about Chitwan. It's okay unless i get dengue!

Of MBBS entrance exam prep and Nabin Sharma(of course)

The very good old NAME hosted a party for the students selected in the IOM and MOE entrance exams(2010 Nov). To be doctors and nurses' get together. I still can't figure out why Nabin Sharma hosted the programme( I was this close to writing the show,yeah,it was that rehearsed). Oh Nabin Sharma and his not so funny jokes.
I'll share with you a lame joke he cracked."We (Rabin Sharma I suppose) are now posting a notice at the gate of NAME. Now that teachers have to teach from 6 in the morn to 6 in the eve and even on Saturdays, they have very little chances of flirting and looking for the lifepartners. So, bachelor teachers please don't bother to enter."
Was that even funny? First of all,everytime I see Nabin Sharma these days, I take him for the reason I couldn't get into IOM. And is he a serious educator ? I doubt. And he makes me remember how he and his aides made me go out of a running class of physics just because I hadn't paid the whole fee sum(which was real high by the way). And the toilets of NAME are too filthy.So are the classes.
Teachers of NAME are mostly nice.
So, you guys, NAME is not a bad idea(but be aware of water and Canteen food).


My tips for cracking the entrance exams:
1.Take it easy:You may think that entrance exams are tougher than your regular exams in college but they are not. Only your approach to these exams are more fearful than to other exams. Take it easy. If you think you can get through an entrance exam,then you definitely can. It can take longer or shorter time depending upon your hard work and luck but you can definitely hit the nail sometime.
2.Work hard and smart: Some wannabe cool peeps say that one should work smart,not hard. I have a different theory. One has to work hard and smart at the same time. You needn't do all the problems from Pradip's physics,that's working smart. But you shouldn't just rely on the PCB refresher,that's working hard.
3.Follow detox: Ever heard of Kim Kardashian getting detox treatment twice a year to cleanse her body internally? You too need to detox your life of negative people. Filter them out, you don't need to please everyone. Block yourself off the people who give you career suggestions like to study CA or what some aunt's distant neice is reading or keep on reminding you of how many years or valuable time you have wasted.
4. Remember you are not wasting time:Wasting time is to pass a year doing nothing. You don't fall into that category.You are working for your dream and trust me, every ounce of time,money and effort you spend on yourself is worthwhile.
4. Don't dream perfection: Don't dream about reading for 20 hours a day. It's not possible. Gandhi says"the only way to happiness is the complete harmony between thoughts and actions". And accordingly, you'll feel more drained and develop negative ideas about yourself which are lethal. Be regular, Make plans to read for certain hours but stick to the plan.Nothing beats regularity in such long term preparations.
5. Prioritize: Prioritize which topics need to be focussed, which parties need to be avoided, when to say no to facebook, when to take a nap....All in all, just take charge of your life and days. Don't repent while going to bed thinking about not so useful stuffs and people you wasted your enegy on(takin a rest is not wasteful, idleness is).
6.Techniques:Now,finally to the techniques of prep. If you're still in college ,good for you. Practice MCQ's from the preparatory books(I prefer Mega's phy,bot,O.P's che,Zoology,I'm confused). Follow your teachers in lessons being taught in class and practice those chapters from these books. These give you an extra edge and confidence and even some tricks to remember,sono harm anyway!
If you have enrolled into some coaching institutes,get started. Collect best materials for theory and MCQ and make daily plan to cover all subjects everyday. Practice a model question set setting time target and try to finish within. Don't read matters that are not asked. Focus your energy on less coz that's all that matters.
And at exams, don't panic over tough exams. Easy questions get you through the test, tough questions for you are tough for everyone.

So, all the best for your entrance exams. But oh yeah, enjoy whatever you do.

Oh Happy New Year everyone! I wish for more electricity, more following on my blog:D, more cool clothes, many newspaper articles, a cool college(hope Chitwan Medical isn't that bad), some more music from Green Day, another beautiful book from Buddhisagar, more custard cream , more mushrooms, more vegans, more glee episodes , hope I can speak French fluently by the end of the year ,hope to shed some winter fat ,hope my mom lets me go bungee jumping ,hope for an end o pimples and hope to learn guitar tabbing. And yeah, good health for baba and aama.
Love ya...XOXO
