I'm sprawled on my bed right now listening to 'The Way I Are', it's 0045hrs on the 13th of April, a small but very useful widget on the right hand side of my desktop affirms me of that fact. I bought a new laptop by the way, and am not over the 'wow' factor of having a laptop yet, it still kinda makes me feel special. Lolz. Life has sort of become very monotonous now, I've sort of settled into a routine. Wake up around 12, lounge around till the night, sleep by 3 or 4. I'll be going through this for about 2 more months, classes begin on the 14th of June, and I guess am leaving sometime early June, have to go and get the loan finalized. Am heading out to Kerala on the 17th, will be spending a very relaxing 12 days there.
The most discussed issue now seems to be over the verdict of the Supreme Court alloting 27% of the seats for OBC/SC/ST et cetera, am not really aware of what is going on, except what people are telling me. Being born into a Tamil Brahmin family, I, like so many of my other friends, strongly believe that a reservation of some sort is required. I think it's more of the being-socially-conscious bit that is coming into play here, if you condemn reservation and happen to be a rich 'General' category guy, you would be the mean son-of-a-bitch (or daughter, as applicable). On the other hand, as 'General' category person, who supports reservation, but knows that it will adversely affect him, he comes out smelling like roses. Okay, I know that am taking a very narrow view of the whole situation here, it's just that am quite irritated now, don't know why.
I've been thinking about this, everyone knows that a lion cannot be domesticated, it's in his nature to tear the guts out of other animals and feast on it. On the other hand, humans believe in second chances, a person who is born from a family of gangsters can still turn out to be a saint. Here, the Nature vs. Nurture argument works out different for humans, Nurture wins out. Weird?
