Once upon a time in Gandhinagar,
Was a guy who just couldn't sleep at night,
With projects, presentations and an ass so sore,
He’d gotten used to his sorry plight
Every night he'd lie and stare,
At the walls, around him and online,
And to think of it life's not fair,
Some classes were at 9. Not fine!
He tossed and turned and you know what,
He tried every position he knew,
He even tried to exhaust himself out,
And cut down on strong brew
And so he would tell himself, 'Dude!
I am gonna stay up through class today,
He'd fight it hard and still hit the desk
Coma, his nick, was damned to stay!
And on a not-so-fine day there was a PPT,
It sounded cool and he took notice,
But when they got to the boring slides, you see,
He napped a sec, but the placecommer just wouldnt miss
Life went on and so did he,
Another bunch of endterms at SPMG,
A vision then told him 'Its okay to classnap
Life is not all about classes, you see!'
He was last seen enjoying his nap,
Through some monologue or mindless yap,
No more struggles, no resistance anymore,
Life's fulfilling when you sleep through a bore!

SPM
Hi everyone..
It’s been about one month since School of Petroleum Management (SPM) began, but it feels like it’s been a year. That’s how much I’ve learnt and how busy I’ve been.
2 months ago, I uprooted my life from NIRMA university and headed over to School of PETROLEUM MANAGEMENT, in pursuit of a unique, enriching and challenging
experience. I am now just 15 kilometres away from home, and my world has been turned topsy-turvy and I am constantly exhausted, but every day is new, exciting and thrilling. I knew I was seeking challenge and that I wanted to be thrown out of my comfort zone when I applied to SPM, and it has definitely delivered! Many people found my decision of joining SPM wrong.The only answer to their words is :
Service sector of India which includes banking,BPO's,Restaurant etc contributes about 48 percent to Indian Economy and for that there are huge numbers of MBA colleges available in India and OIL AND GAS sector which contributes 15 percent to indian economy there are only two management colleges.Financial crisis can be controlled in five years but wat about Energy crisis. All five Indian companies appearing on the Fortune 500 list operate in
the Oil & Gas sector.
I m not here to defend my self.Because it is not that important.The only thing important here is that i m doing wat rest are not.
First day fresh faces in class made me to ask question to myself-ARE THEY FRESH???I meant hw many of them are freshers...They were giants,big,wid moustache nd beard.I came to know later that out of 60, 44 of them are work ex guys and rest are freshers and amng 16 freshers 7 are girls.First three days we were wid NGOs,with poor children,wid migrants workers. Challenges wat poors of india are facing are lethal.Yes the challenges are lethal and m not
exaggerating anything here.It was the time wen i was feeling bad about my country.But the thing which has to be noticed here is that Kesher was actualy thinking about his country.I could see the change in me.On third day's evening GSPC(Gujarat state petroleum corporation) managing director had made us feel important by inviting us for a dinner party at TAJ RESIDENCY.Next day SHELL 's chairperson came for the expert lecture on challenges to OIL AND GAS SECTOR.Next three days We were in GSPC 's guest house in HAZIRA,SURAT.
The classes started wid a fine introduction on OPERATION MANAGEMENT.The second lecture was on ORGANISATIONAL BEHAVIOUR.And next day we were told to present a presentation.I played table tennis till 2 am nd started my vehicle for my home at 5:30 am for taking formals for the presentation and..................................................................................................................................................................................
I MET WITH AN ACCIDENT.
I have started going for college now.But the kind of pressure nd load wat i m having rite now can not be described in words.When a guy told me wat all topics have been covered and wat all i need to study.I closed my eyes nd my mind said to me-KESHER CHAR SAAL KE ENGINEERING MEIN BHI ITNA NAHI PADHA HOGA.
My life in SPM has been a roller coaster ride till date.Sleeping wid an average of 4 hours per day,its fun and exciting.

WHY???
HI EVERYONE...
Today everything seems so calm nd quiet that i dont hav nything new to think upon.All thoughts,all philosphies,everything are lowering down nd my mind is searching for noise.Till date my life revolved around frends,cricket,writing,love,badminton,nd my mom.Wenever i think to free my arms,people who wer responsible for making me,comes to my mind,nd i stop there only.Many of my frends hav written in my testimonial that it is not easy to calculate me,it is not easy to understand me.The only reason i suppose is that i m very spontaneous.I think nd thn i forgot,i think the next nd i forgot the next.Why i m writing about my self.Is it necessary to give any xplaination WHY i m like this.M i not normal.Plethora of such questions r surfacing me nd m not been able to think why is this happening.I know wat i m going to write may create controversies or may be not,i dont know,but still i want to write.I m writing it beacoz i want it to be written.I m writing about those who wer wid me nd now they r not.
VIKESH:- A very emotional guy who is quiet open in his thoughts but not in his feelings.He thinks wat he sees.He does know wat is right but he doesnt know wat is wrong. i want to tell him tht i find myself lucky to have him in my early days of college.
SANTANU DEORI- A wierdo,total wierdo.We shared school,we shared class,we shared bench,we shared tuitions,we shared sports nd we shared good times together but we didnt talk in these 4 years of college.I dont have his cell number nd we r not in contact.We used to be the best in badminton in mehsana.We went for cluster,regional nd now we dont know in which comapny we r placed.We dont know nything about each oder.But i really enjoy him as a frend.
ADITYA MISHRA:- He was mad.Mad about cricket,mad about just everything.How can i forget those golden moments wen we both used to make fun of pankaj.He gifted me a spect in teachers day nd d spect is still wid me.We played cricket together.Everyone used to feel how can kesher nd aditya be a good buddy.But the truth was he was a guy wid the most innocent heart.He had the heart of a child.I still remember the fight between him nd arun.It was brutal nd scary.Right now i dont know wer is he.I dont know whether he is still the same aditya or some elements of +18 people come inside him.I dont know anything about him presently.I just hope werever he is,he continues annoying people.
DANISH:-We were best frnds wen we wer in primary.i still have the fotograph in which i nd him are looking like rockstars.nd as time progressed , connection between him nd i startd fading.He is a confused guy.He thinks slowly.he do things abnormaly.I,danish and vikesh used to play cricket together in danish's terrace.It was fun.i still remeber the first birthday gift which i got,was frm danish.He gifted me 8 diamonds(in which thr wer 8 differnt games viz chess,ludo,snake nd ladder etc).
We havent talked in these four years nd i dont hav his conatct number.
MANI:-He was the best.Guy wid beautiful heart.I wrote several poems on his honour.We played together.i remember he was the only guy wid whom i used to go out for playing TT during board xams.We shared tuitions together.5 am at morning we used to move for bhatiya uncle tuitions,Those xperience,those memories wer unforgetble.WE do talked a bit in fone in these four years of my college but the frequency ws negligible.I wanted him always as my best buddy but as i said time changes,situation changes nd people too.
Everyone has to travel thru bad nd good times.You meet new people nd u forgot old ones.This is quiet normal.I m not blaming nyone.It is not nyones fault.There is no question of finding faults.The question is same.R changes necessary?Situation will change but is it necessary for people to change themselves.Why do people change?

college days
One step towards worlds life
brand new and exciting type
but i stopped and turned around
to see my place,my own ground
the place where i've spent my golden days
preferred road side vendor than cafe's
acting strange and driving crazy
living life was so damn easy
never caring what ever others say
laziness,recklessness always outplays
studies,lectures & shouting teachers
sleeping in the class,proudly back-benchers
making friends,in a split of second
but sticking with them till worlds end
living on the edge,challenges & dares consequences,
who the hell cares
but reality struck, and hits hard
soon this world will be torn apart
days are over,time to say goodbye
memories flashing,in front of wet eyes
my heart's defying,
but this the end.....................end of my college days.....

MATURITY
Mom, you never ever give me what I ask for!"
"It is only 100 rupees. Are we so poor that we cannot afford it?"
"How could he said that,he was my best frend"
"Don't crib about my cell phone bills, XYZ runs into thousands."
And so on. demands never end. Nor do complaints.
This exhibition of self-centredness and self-importance is characteristic of ALL OF US. Our expectations, demands and complaints run into volumes. Yet, they are not bad. This is part of our maturation process.
Wenever i think of the word MATURITY.....i get confused.Wat should be the right time to get mature.This question haunts me always.And i hav never came to any solutions till date.
Four years in an engineering college do teaches us alot.But do they teach how to become mature.Does maturity is same as being serious,does it mean to behave nicely wid others,does it mean to talk sensibly or does it mean to portray ourselves a gentleman.Every human has a child inside him,so does it mean we never had became mature and till date we were just puttering.
What i think is removing selfcentredness,self importance and emotional insecurity from our mind is maturity.I make emotional security the bottom line for any progress. No growth can take place in a vacuum.By the word emotional security,i mean we should be emotionally strong enough to face bad times and in those bad times too,we should think about others to be happy. There is always be a preoccupation with the self and we become unmindful of others. This hampers our personal growth and interpersonal relationships.In my experience, most of the problems whether it is personal or interpersonal, emotional or cognitive, decisions have to be made. As It is said... decisions are processed logically, but made emotionally.If u cant be emotional,u cant be mature.To be content and not bursting out is maturity.
I have seen many guys who always say " i have faced alot,i am backstabbed by someone,i have seen many bad times in my life"...But bursting it out,,,will it bring the good times again.It shows immaturity.It shows that u r still not enough mature to deal wid it.And thus u r speaking out.
But the problem is "will it be easy for us to be content with d life that offered us"... yes,its very difficult to be satisfied.It is very difficult to portray ourselves to be mature becoz at the core of ur heart,u know u r not pure.There wer days wen i used to say " i can't even see cloud 9 wen i look down" But i realized later that it was fog which was making me blind to see the cloud.
Maintaining the balance is wat required. But practicing this balance is difficult.Then wat should v do?? The question never ends..the answers never end...

CHANGES
HI...
I am alone in my room thinking about the change.Changes which are always seem dynamic but not in actual.Changes demand risks.U need to take risks if u want changes.Year 2003,when i want to achieve heights in badminton.I want to be a player but life was on the other side of the net.And it defeated me with 21-0...At that time i was afraid of change.The question is at present whether i am happy or not with the life that offered me.And the answer for the same is DONT KNOW.. Today my life is dynamic.Lots of things are happening simultaneously,some are controllable,some are not.
It was 2 august 2008,saturday,SIEMENS POWER was at my college for the campus placement and It was the last date for taking CAT -2008 application form.I reached college in car with one of my friend parvinder nogi at 9:00 am.I gave the written test and told parvinder " Lets go to take CAT application form from axis bank".I reached to parking,put my hand into the pocket to take out keys,but hand comes out of it emptied.Keys were lost.I went to the bank with my another friend,took the form,reached back to the college,wear formals,and heared - KESHER UR INTERVIEW CALL.And i entered the room where four deadly creatures were seated ready to screw me.
I asked god "should all these interesting(for others to listen) things need to occur.Would have these things not happend,wouldn't i get placed.Lots of such dynamic things had happend before and still continues.These things had always triggered off the thought processes in my mind.What is the use of all these bloody things to happen.Why do change occurs.Why doesnt life becomes monotonous? These umpteen disturbances surfaced me many times and i ll share every bit of it...And thus the second thing that life taught me - CHANGE IS THE MOST STATIC THING IN LIFE .......

There are lots of people searching for happiness.They dont have any idea wer they find it.They keep on strugling with his life to achieve success,to achieve happiness.But the thing is wen u help someone who is struggling and if he or she come out of it,happiness lies there.life demands various things from us.It makes u dance to its tunes untill u know how to live ur life without life.It may sounds absurd.But ya its true.Generally people makes their owns their life,their parents,their relatives,their wives,their husbands, and they find mammoth pain in their minds and soul wen they realize life(what they intepreted) has gone.Now u r alone,in darkness.Complete lonliness is eating u. A light in ur life is happiness and it wat success actually means.Life has many dimensions,many arrows,and many directions,It depends on ur inner thoughts which arrow u follow.U need to be delightful,wen u r happy.U should know the importance of that happiness.And it will automatically makes u important.....This is my first blog.The first thing that life taught me.Hope u all liked it... My coming blogs will make u laugh,cry and think..........................................
