Quote Wonderment (I)

I'm totally sick of examinations and stuff. World's worst stressors are exams. I've always had this opinion right from my childhood. Hmmm... So to get a break I was running through my old memories and thoughts. One such is the admiration for this quote,

"Sometimes people are beautiful.
Not in looks.
Not in what they say.
Just in what they are."

--Markus Zusak

The quote itself is amazing. Reminds me of so many things.
And note that Markus Zusak's wonderful book called 'The Book Thief' which was a good read.
Laziness blocks me from writing more. ;)

    The Entire theory of examination... Your knowlegde about a subject tested with a mere question of five is truly saddening and pityful. One should study not to score a 100 but to improve one's Know How on matters.... So my dear Ramya don take it to heart on how you perservere on your paper cause its the real life and the of how you use that knowlege that really matters!!!!!

    Even though the exams make you wax. After exams, when we are continuing our semesters, our face will again become brightening candle.

    "Imagine smiling after a slap in the face. Then think of doing it twenty-four hours a day. "

    Look, if you have the idea that I'm desperate to know who you are, then stop thinking so. Just stop being anonymous that creates an aura that I'm being baited. Okay?

Spark + Magic = Love spell ??!!??!!

There was this talk going on in one of our extra-curricular sessions about 'RELATIONSHIPS'. Well, a few talked about their friends and the kind of relationships they'd had in their past and the regular crap. And then rose a gentleman amongst us and started talking about spark, magic and all that. The obscureness in his speech interested me to a good deal and moreover I strongly agreed with what he told. This is what he told[in my own words of what I could perceive] "All may tell the various reasons for their love, and why they liked their friends, but the fact is that there’s always this spark, or hidden magic that attracts people and make them fall in love or even friendship. The magic strings each other and builds the bond." [Seemed he'd been hit by a thunderbolt like what happened to Michael Corleone due to Appollonia Vitelli in Godfather ;)] And the person who was heading the conference did not agree with him[Of course he was counselor or somebody, he...

But why's the chivalry gone?

Disclaimer: The following words are not generalized at all, they're specific to a few persons. Does the post's title sound like, "But, why's the rum gone?".*silly* I wish I had been born 200 years earlier. Look at the world today, hmm ok the men today. Shouldn't a girl expect the lowest degree of decency from a man? It's even okay when your mind is as dirty as a dustbin, but why do you show? Mischievousness is accepted only to a tolerable extent. Man!!, there's no trace of chivalry in today's men as a matter of fact there's no trace of purity in a few of  today's women[I know it's a disgrace to the whole community]. God!, Save the men, Heal the world!! P.S - I think these days I'm becoming more cynical. I'll try not to reflect that on my posts.
