The Clandestine Radicals

The first impression that the reader might develop after she/he reaches the end of the post would be "this girl is a crazy psychoanalyst on the verge of being admitted to a mental asylum " & i assure you your unmistakable judgment .
Anyways go on reading...

Have you ever felt wanting for more & more knowledge but the only roadblock is the daunting task of reading between those two flaps of the fascinating yet choking thing called books ?
Have you ever slept (literally) after reading the first two lines of a book you really wanted to read ?
Have you ever felt unworldly dignified enmity for your course material ?
Have you ever felt what's gone wrong with you when the terrifying sight of entire species of student community busy devouring books before exams doesn't stir you ?

IF the answer to even one of the aforesaid questions is a " yes " then ' Congratulations ! '; you have been diagnosed with and given the august title of THE CLANDESTINE RADICALS dwelling in their esoteric reclusion .
Broadly speaking the guild of students can be classified into 3 basic types , namely :
1.MAGGU'S
2.LESSER MAGGU'S
3.NON-MAGGU'S

MAGGU'S :They sit on the front seat of the center most row. They note down each & every punctuation mark in the prof 's lecture . They declare a war if asked for their prized possessions aka files+assignments+notes. They would commit suicide if their near most contender achieves the envied feat of gaining an extra half a mark . They form the butt of all class jokes . They shamelessly never hesitate to blurt out the
cliché " yar kuch nai padha maine to ...". They never miss a chance to impress & overpower the poor teaching fraternity.

LESSER MAGGU'S : They are the intermediate types in all respects. Be it their seating arrangement during the lecture , their intensity to gorge on books in exam season (studying 15 days before endsems & 3 days before midsems ) ; making short hand ,crisp, self legible notes . Overall speaking they live in harmony with the classmates and the teachers by sharing their "prized"possessions with the class & asking genuine questions from the professors .

NON MAGGU'S : Totally "mast maula" type. Studying isn't their cup of tea . Exam time is greeted with " settings " done with people sitting right in front & behind ( only if they are willing ) else their only tiresome effort towards earning passing marks comes handy ; the meticulously designed pieces of artworks labeled ' farre , parchi , chits ...' . They form the 'spicy ' lot of the class ;not to forget their classic encounters with classmates , teachers or other unmentionable people round the campus .

While there occurs a constant selective transfusion of traits from one category people to the other , the class remains overall a balanced entity .

Here comes the outclass ; Totally lost yet focussed , Totally uninterested yet engrossed , Totally dumb( at times ) yet the cleverest students forming the Clandestine Radicals aspect of the now complete college classroom .

while the range of activity can be calculated for the previous 3 types , the radicals range is from minus to plus infinity .

THE RADICALS if never woken up might perish in the fire of self imposed & society inflicted notorious anonymity while on the other hand have the utmost potential to unleash their astounding perfection & leave the completely dumbfound academic guild gasping for breath .

So all those people with a " YES " ; its time to come out & rise above and show the world your true worth !!!

Writer's Fit

OK , I'm finally here after having mercy on the poor people who used to curse me after wasting their 1 kb download by clicking on the blog's link ; i'm back people .

No...I won't say I have conquered the writer's block; as not belonging to the proficient fluent writer's species, I christen my writing state as a"Writer's FIT "... yes you read it right .

when the frontal subcortical area of the brain is flooded & choked with motley emotions & there seems no cure ... no, not even talking it out; as people who can bear the intensity are rare to find ...Writer's FIT seems to be the best option .

nobody to stop you
nobody to snigger
nobody to cry out ( well sure they would after reading but not in front of me at least [:p] )
nobody to run away in the midst of your spout

You kind of hold the person ( whose designation has been changed from an uninterested listener to the pitiable reader ) by the neck & let him read your blast of bizarre expressions .
People speak about curing & coming out of their writer's block stature while ones like me indulge themselves into the tempting FIT & let emotions flow .

Here I am reminded of gaurav sir's ways to come out of writer's block ...too witty to handle !

While Writer's FIT seems to be a better way out from the clamorous emotions piled over a long period of time ; where the person might suffer from the symptomatic outbursts of thoughtless pretentious " emotionally psychic " behaviour , leasing out their emotions now and then at wrong time & at wrong place; beautifully crafting at times strained relationships .

such people are the most difficult to comprehend .

CAUTION: People with such syndrome usually are lost in the absence of thoughts aka
' black hole of cognition ' .

The only cure known as of yet is the Writer's FIT.!!
