abs v/s flabs

heartiest congrats to abhinav bindra, vinder kumar n sushil kumar! we're proud of ya!!
my facination for driving reached its epitome when i held the steerin wheel in the prescribed 10-10 position. but my fetish for speed gave my father quite a scare and he never allowed me to take the car for a spin alone. while sitting beside me he usually gave me tips on how to control the car and how to signal the horn.....only when it was necessary and not as a musical instrument. one advice he gave me really caught my attention. never switch lanes. he said avoid switchin lanes and hold ur lane as much as possible. i learnt that quite well with the car. but when you are walkin its a different issue altogether.

they say ur more of a man when ur walking down a street and force the people who are walking towards you to move out of your way (no one has really said that...its just what i think is the way it works) . i actually considered this more of an attitude problem. frankly speakin ive never thought about makin people get out of my way. all these years ive simply strafed away n let the person pass. but my dad's statement caught my mind.

i decided one fine day "raghav..you need some attitude in you...make ur presence felt!! " . ok, fair enough...abhi nahi to kabhi nahi. my inner voice told me that this was the right time to tell the world dat i have finally come to terms with the attrocities that have been commited on me.

i walkin back home from college when i saw a bundle of mass walking towards me. the devil inside told me "haha...common ragz...this is your chance...this is your day!!" i wasnt wearin my glasses so couldnt really see what i was walkin into. anyways..who cares....i wasnt gonna change my lane. HE WAS!! my CGI inspired brain started making calculations.
