So with my articleship (internship) of 3 year with Deloitte over, I have vowed not to be a glorified proofreader. Yea, yea, so the purists will argue how auditing is an art, and how they get to learn new things in it and how they never get bored of it, well, good for you. *smirks*
With the 3 years vanvaas of mine over, I intend to be a lot more active here.
I think there are few thing fundamentally wrong with us Indians. Whatever issue comes up, we always want to be the devil's advocate. So when Kasav/Kasab is kept alive in high security jails, we want to question the government why is he not hanged yet. When he is given a death sentence, we want to raise questions about capital punishments and human rights. Decide, people.
So when an alleged criminal is killed in an alleged fake encounter, instead of asking a highly obvious question whether the late dude in question was involved in any crime, everyone is busy asking questions why was he killed. Jeez. So, just because he was muslim, and he was killed by hindu cops, there is some foul play involved. How convenient, right? How come no one considers a possibility of him being an actual criminal, and just because he was not caught red handed from the attack site in Mumbai, with hand grenades and other ammunition on him, he has to be innocent.
Which makes me wonder, how would people react if Kasav was killed in similar fashion? Or maybe we should wait till young innocent men take up guns, kill a few people or hijack a plane, before any kind of action is taken.
I am not justifying the "fake encounter" here, but arent we all focussing on the wrong thing?
Anyway,
Other than that, I am enjoying my new found joblessness. I could write thesis on how I spent my last 3 years, but since i have not yet received my stipend of the month of July, I shall refrain and fight all my urges to diss the organisation. :D
Till next time,
Ta.

Sue the Parents!
No, not my parents, though, I have been tempted to sue them for naming me Nirwa, which a lot of people pronounce wrongly, and a lot of people address me as Nirav - a guy's name, when i am but a girl, but right now, i want to sue those parents who allow their little children to be participants in these reality shows.
Now, when I was a little girl, I wanted to participate in Boogie Woogie, the dance based show on sony. I believed I was supremely talented and how I could win the show hands down. Thankfully, better sense prevailed over my parents, who knew deep down I could not dance to save my life, even if I was caught in a 'naach basanti, jab tak tere pair chalenge, iski saansein chalengi' situation. Veeru, then would've died of shock with the mere images of me dancing. I digress.
Now, had my parents been the kinds who do not see any fault in their children, and think that their kid is the bestest performer ever, need to do some reality check. I know it sounds harsh, and how kids are supposed to be innocent, but then, such shows actually kill their innocence. Being rejected on television, where their cruel school friends would see and later on make fun of. Not every child is brave enough, and c'mon, they're children, let them be!
And then, there's this Vindoo Dara Singh who's one of the judges. I would die before i let my kid judged by a giantass creep like him! And then the parents, whose children get selected for next round are all crying as if the child has won the national award of some sorts. Absolute wtfness it is.
And if anyone of my old readers are wondering why am i back with this name, well, i am back. enough of hiding my real identity. what or who was i afraid of? and why? let the gyaan be available to all! :P
And this blog, is now final.
