My point of view - Another action of the Matrix

Love.... All of us agree that it's the funniest & the most amazing feeling that anyone could have. I mean, love can make a king feel like a slave & a slave feel like a king!!!

Well but the article cetainly had this wierd effect on me on this whole point of view. I mean, on the history of mankind love was treated to signify a revolution!!!!. I mean, if whoever the author is trying to create a creation in whatever form may it be a book, a song, a drama or even a comicstrip, if they're trying to create a social revolution against stuff like race, cast, feminism, domestc violence and stuff like that. They basically build the story saying that true love will be the solution for the problem & that love can conquer everything & anything

Sooo... is the love so amazing????? Is it REALLY?? Well, it certainly isn't revolutionary. I mean think about it, aren't we all MEANT TO BE? meant to be loved? I mean we are genetically structured for it! Love isn't a miracle!! It is natural as eating, sleeping or havin sex!! Sooo.. with this point of view what happens to all the purity attributed to the concept?? I mean, is love "pure" or "sacred", or is it just an action on us by the Matrix!!!!

Tell me about it!

Another approach towards love..............

I get these newsletters from how stuff works. Actually I found stuff which are really intersting from that.

Anyways recently I saw the wierdest artical. "How Love Works" stuffs really interesting. Try this link

http://www.howstuffworks.com/love.htm

here's some interesting quotes from it.

• We are wired for romance in part because we are supposed to be loving parents who care diligently for our helpless babies.
• So in a sense, love really is a chemical addiction that occurs to keep us reproducing.
• Many researchers have speculated that we tend to go for members of the opposite sex who remind us of our parents
• There are three distinct types or stages of "love":
  1. Lust, or erotic passion
  2. Attraction, or romantic passion
  3. Attachment, or commitment
  When all three of these happen with the same person, you have a very strong bond. Sometimes, however, the one we lust after isn't the one we're actually in love with.
• Sexologist John Money draws the line between love and lust in this way: "Love exists above the belt, lust below. Love is lyrical. Lust is lewd."
• Pheromones, looks and our own learned predispositions for what we look for in a mate play an important role in whom we lust after, as well. Without lust, we might never find that special someone. But, while lust keeps us "looking around," it is our desire for romance that leads us to attraction.
• When attraction, or romantic passion, comes into play, we often lose our ability to think rationally -- at least when it comes to the object of our attraction.
• Psychologists at the University of Texas in Austin have come to the same conclusion. They found that idealization appears to keep people together and keep them happier in marriage.
• They discovered that people in love have lower levels of serotonin and also that neural circuits associated with the way we assess others are suppressed. These lower serotonin levels are the same as those found in people with obsessive-compulsive disorders, possibly explaining why those in love "obsess" about their partner.
• In romantic love, when two people have sex, oxytocin is released, which helps bond the relationship. ....... the hormone oxytocin has been shown to be "associated with the ability to maintain healthy interpersonal relationships and healthy psychological boundaries with other people." When it is released during orgasm, it begins creating an emotional bond -- the more sex, the greater the bond.
• the speed at which courtship progresses often determines the ultimate success of the relationship. What they found was that the longer the courtship, the stronger the long-term relationship.
• The feelings of passionate love, however, do lose their strength over time. Studies have shown that passionate love fades quickly and is nearly gone after two or three years. The chemicals responsible for "that lovin' feeling" (adrenaline, dopamine, norepinephrine, phenylethylamine, etc.) dwindle. Suddenly your lover has faults. Why has he or she changed, you may wonder. Actually, your partner probably hasn't changed at all; it's just that you're now able to see him or her rationally, rather than through the blinding hormones of infatuation and passionate love. At this stage, the relationship is either strong enough to endure, or the relationship ends.
• Only three percent of mammals (aside from the human species) form "family" relationships like we do. The prairie vole is one such animal. This vole mates for life and prefers spending time with its mate over spending time with any other voles. Voles even go to the extreme of avoiding voles of the opposite sex.

I shall give my comments on this artical after you do.............. well, as Gumz sayz "Clog it dude"

Got the grades

All that effort of a semester was instantly transferred into one single character!!!!!!!!!

Not THAT impressive. At least not as good as my cousin, Nadushi from BABA who holds 5 magnificent A+'s. Good for her. The prob it has with me is that, my parents would be comparing me with her & I don't look THAT snazy.

This how it goes,

• C A+ (WOW, I'm the top of batch in C)
• DCN A+ (WOW, I'm the top of batch in DCN too)
• BO A (WOW... thanx Aashika! You were an exellent lecturer. Keep it up)
• SAD B+ (Considering I got a D for my group project!!!! which adds up 35%!!! Brilliant!!! Thought I would have to do it again)
• PCS B (Whoa, now how the hell did that happen???!!!)

Well, at the end of the day......... I'm really really really happy of what I got! & soooooooo sad abt all my friends who didn't make it!!!!!!

Honestly it feels good to be ME!

New look

The old template went zoinks!!! Gonna give this template a trial run..

My birthday party

It was good.... i wanted to write abt this b4 but simply didn't hav time

It was my 21st. So parents wanted 2 hav a party, not on my b'day but on the Sunday b4 it. Our family is not into parties. I should've only had abt 5 bday parties 4 me! So i was overjoyed, (Duh!!!!) started making the guest list, etc, etc, etc...

After some time, I started gettin worried abt the massive expense I ws going to cause my parents & started thinking if it's worth the whole thing. To start w, it's not a massive change in my life!!! Next day I would wake up the same way & everyone is going to be the same way. it's not that i'm gonna die or some thing!!!

Anyways.............. Grandma got sick!!!! well, not exactly sick but docs suspected a cancer!! Obviously I got bloody shocked. She stays in my place & we're close.

So.............. I cancelled the whole thing!!! I wasn't in a state of mind to have a party.. Even though it would be the last party I'd get b4 my graduation (or my wedding!!!!!!!!?????????, nah!). So i almost finished undoing all the invitation, wn 1 of my uncles explained how miportant the whole birthday thing is for my grandma. With a bit of unluck, it just could be the last party she would attend to in this life!!!!

So I decided 2 hav it anyway, but only inviting only a quarter or so in the massive guest list.. I wanted to have a lotta friends by my side & all, but I jus invited my relatives, cos I did the party for my grandma, & I wanted to have her party in the way she would've wanted, with her sons & daughters + their next generation.

I hope she was happy w e party.

Anyways......... she's alright now. She underwent a surgery on my birthday, which is the 1st of march. Docs Got the confounded thin out o her body, which wasn't really a cancer. & she's now safe at home!!! Thank goodness

WOooooooooooWEEEEEeeeee

U guys have really made me blog....... But unfortunately with the very disturbing schedule I'm going through, it's really tuff to find time to blog.... Honestly, i really dnt know how u guys keep blogging so often...
