does music allow any EXIT.

"Sometimes, when you have a problem, it can seem like you’re all alone with no-one to turn to. Some people find solace in the bottom of a glass, others turn to music. I can’t afford a bottle of Vodka a night so I am going to turn to the world of Rock". But with ma ancestors completely away from this field and being a simply indian , can i chose this path.....

Today I decide to share my most mundane problems with the rock world in which many have been living from years. After coming to Hyderabad i actually comfirmed myself that head banging is way too small a thing to be a rock star, There are drugs, more drugs, unlimited alcohol , smoke, weed, LSD, Grass and just every thing that scares a person the very first time he takes them. LLLLuckly my dwindling goals in life and my shity dream generator didnt overrule my conscience. Here many may object me by proving that i know nothing about rock but thn they are polietly said SHUT UP coz its my page.

I like all others started my journey by listening to enrique, backstreet stuff in the starting . No doubt they were gooood but its a lil unkool for alll of us here to name ourself their fan. specially when the world of music revolves around meeting people and feeling proud of the collection and music taste one has.....NIrvana was my first Rock album from where i picked up the spirit to learn the guitar. luckily my X girl frend gifted me that just at the rite time. I then went around to people to learn things they are comfortable at but always got demotivated because it was too tough for me to be like them when i had hell lot of other intrests too. Slowly and gradually from the song papa kehte hea to my own compositions today i feel a lil satisfied but only when i have learnt to act blinfolded when the demotivation takes its place.

I will not lie , But i did try to be like many of the other rockstars by started doing things they do and developing their tastes but it was way to scary for a kid like me to cross that barrier. Today i am happy i have played with some great rockstars and a lil disappointed that i cant be one among them.

well why i got hit with this thought is coz when i was unpacking my stuff yest ( i have come back to hyD, and soon would be leaving this place in search of a better career) i just thought It has been fairly quiet on the Rockstar front as of late, and most importantly i will not be keeping track with my guitar and music in future too. This is one of the major barrier for a rockstar, you just cant continue with it. But i wish all of you mosfet lovers may you continue the journey if you have really given it a life.

My X’s getting married to anther man. But shez an X ....but still................... ..............................XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXLATERXXXXXXxxx

i m Still HeRe

Its been long since i have written this stupid dairy but trust me every moment i have passed by , i had thought of writing them down so that i can read and laugh just after life makes you forget all those times. One other reason i consider writing here better than putting comments on FB is the fact that what we achieve or obtain too cheap , we esteem too lightly and thus we don’t realise what chain of life we are holding and how important is it for us to wait for the right moment. Well Now don’t take me wrong , i m nowhere going on the spiritual path but just taking an easiest route to start filling these web pages again. Now just to follow the trend of blogging , the reason why i wasn’t writing is that i have been on a break from my lil life in Hyderabad for a couple of months (and which ofcorse i will be joining in few days from now). I had to miss a lot of things ( guitar , bike, Gf, frens, Music, Studies, my solitude etc ) but the charm of living at home after a long time is all worth it. I am starting again just to end my journey in Hyderabad. This start is meant for both roanlife.blogspot.com and rohan. reallife.com ..............................Later...............................................

A special Date with ISB

Over the years I’ve weighed in with my opinion on the profile that can get in to a Good B school. Many think I'm a crank, but an increasing number of people in the biz have similar doubts about the shit these people need to take us inside.

Well in the quest of a bright future, like everyone does, i landed up in ISB (Indian school of business), The only dream school for the people who cannot crack CAT and of course who don’t know how much it takes to get into ISB with lil of work experience. Perhaps for me it would be a perfect blind date to start with. It was like living in the present with the memories of distorted past and projections of the future. So.....


It was a perfect Hyderabad’s weather and like me there were many more who had come for clearing their doubts (or in simple words , had come to feel the fact that how inappropriate they are for this school). As soon as i saw that big giant beautiful building, my mind transformed my unbiased cognition to biased perception. The dream generator was like full of fuel, and for me, dreams are my second mind. Though nothing absolute about it, i walked in the reality meeting the receptionist and some good looking students who greeted us( i along with others ) and who asked us to follow them for a ride in the heaven. It was a beautiful sight , may be because of the weekend or perhaps every one out there feels so great every time. In the middle of a big dome , i saw many of the students , dressed up casually and were busy in their laptop machines. Of course, weren’t working on social networking sites. It is a common experience that anticipation of happiness is probably more joyful than actual event but neways... As we moved ahead , these students showed us the class rooms , the large library and many other things. But as the dream generator was about to roll, there came the first meteor , the students told us that they had 7 years of experience both and had done tremendously well in their field. Man!!! Where do i stand , with two years of Satyam experience.

It was time,6 O clock and we all moved into the big room where there were already many of them sitting. There was a man, aged almost 40-50 and with a superb personality, who introduce himself as the head of admissions in ISB, and who was standing right in a centre with a mic. He showed us some videos of alums sharing their thoughts and experiences and promised us to give some time with more students later in the day. He was clear in his presentation , and specifications which ISb look for in a student but he didn’t mention any remedy that can get us there. In the questions section, i asked him if its true that ISB looks for some experience in NGO’s or things, in students. He straight away replied, if that were the case, or if they declare like this. Everyone will get in to NGO’s . He explained in a way that , if ISB declares that they took someone who does salsa very well, shiamak davar will come himself and pay them half of his revenue , as everyone will start learning that to get in here. He emphasized , its not a particular thing they look for, Its how well a student showcases its stuff, be it brushing his teeth. Well mostly evry one asked their doubts on admissions and all.

After i got of that place, the hall, The moment was wasted in castigating the past i had lived in and strategising the future . I met another student outside and asked him what he suggests for me with the kind of experience i have, and to get into this heaven. He said its not , bout the numerical figure of experience one needs, its the mind that should be well developed . I wasn’t fully agreed on his statement on which he said if i could sit inside the class, i would understand. Well it was the right ignition which was needed to stop that bloody dream generator then to actually do something. I spoke to the professor and requested him to let me sit in the class. It wasn’t easy but by telling him how badly i want to get the feel and how important it would be for me , He agreed, and here came something to save that meteor ,My first win in a B school. Yeppie..... I sat in class which had all the future CEO’s inside, not just what people say. They were from the business magazines editorials disguised as students..Perhaps Not.!! Each and every discussion they had with the prof was full of facts, examples and in business slangs. I couldn’t figure out what class was taking place, but it was something high from my reach. I was barely making myself happy by listening to examples they gave and countries they talk about, which fortunately for me exist in the real world.


In the break , i thought i had enough and made a move by thanking every one who helped in someway. I am in thoughts now. Its not that generator its something different than this but its certainly making me to fight and move!!!! I wish i can go back in my past to make myself better than what i am today not as a person but as a CEO in the making. I wish that my wish gets completed.


I cannot share what i am feeling now, but its certainly a better feeling without doing anything because i know i will do. Its just a day, i wonder how these people feel living in that place for 365 days. I wonder what it takes to compete with them . I have started to walk. Let me Run. Let me fast Forward my life 2-3 yrs ahead.

StUdY @ sucks

Well no matter wat age u fall in....And how intelligent you have been made by God during your inception with studies, You are bound to suck in it. If you don’t, you are meant to stop right here right now. Thanks for visiting my blog.Have a nice day!!!

But for all you filthy people, have some shame reading it further. Our parents , our Teachers had spent half of their lives telling us the importance of studying. Did we change? NO!. Most of us have topped our high schools and colleges, But that didn’t make us a part of the ghetto club. We probably were more disgusting on that particular exam day or its was d luck. I am not born for studying, atlest not these stupid things ya. I don’t want to know wat are networks nor i want to know how fast is this man running; i would rather check it in the speedo meter to know it, or will just pray to God to let me win the race while keeping my foot on the accelerator . I don’t want to be a part of historians who love to spend time imagining the shape of the history as if only the flow of events could have been slightly different from what it was. Some of us are engineers , for god sake no reason or for the fact that everyone is doing the same , thus to follow the inept trend. Some of us are MBA’s doing for the sake of their families or for a better status symbol or as if they gonna stand next to Obama being a perfect Orator.

I can throw myriad no of hilarious reasons for not studying or developing more filth in whatever i have said above. But the point i want to write here is not what most of us have understood. I know even though you think studying is the most important aspect of one’s life, you didn’t stop in the beginning. Now here’s the time when i call all those innocent people, whu read with the true intentions , the big sufferers . While giving that crown of disgust to you guys.. anyways we are born to be like this.

So contradicting to whatever i said above ( that was a part of me who still hasn’t learnt the importance of life ) i refute the proposal of making 10th class boards optional. No matter what i had felt years back while writing those exams , today i feel so good to know things which my peers don’t or the vice versa. I feel so sad when we don’t get in to a good company just because we couldn’t tell them what ++ signifies in C++. I feel sad when there is a differentiation in the CTC of people based on the college they have studied into. Today, suppressing my immature part , i feel lucky that my parents did whatever they could to make me study within the best possible range of institutions. Today after passing out that age i understand the importance of what i was told throughout. There are students who are facing the heat of boards exams and are losing out there lives striving to achieve a green grade on their report card. But this is certainly not the way to deal with this crisis. Making Boards optional (!0th for now and 12th boards some years later ) is certainly not a prudent thought. Let s not deprive them of the feelings which we feel today. Let’s not make them fall under the filth “” column. Contn......

Fly High..ofcrse in a plane..else u fall

There’s one name which is always trying to get into some kind of list named as “developed” , i know it by the name of India, some call it Bharat , some grace it with Hindustan.. Well just to portray one of the examples of it and how it keeps on striving for results is our aviation field. No disregard to Praful Patel (our civil aviation minister) for his manoeuvres’ in his field. He has been rite in his work and results. His latest step (though not so recent) to modernise all our international Airports is a thing to watch out for. He has saved numerous asses by making that AirIndia and Indian Airlines merger a success. He has made 2.5 % of Hindustanis to travel and see the clouds, from a depressing 1% earlier. Though we still lack way behind the other countries which has offered more than 75% of their people to appreciate air hostess or stewards work, But I don’t doubt his commitment for his entire 5 yrs of tenure.


But is it really gonna help us in any way. Can this actually contribute to the overall success of our country. NO!!!! We need way too more efforts and from way too more diversified people to step up from their sleep. OK say he has increased the efficiency of air machines to 50 transactions including takeoff and landing per hour from a bleak 25 earlier. But is it possible. We have read headlines stating, Crash escaped, or some other fancy incidents happened at the airport; when we were doing that dancing with 25 per hour figure. So is it possible with the number 50. The point here is, are we well technically equipped to handle 50 at one go?. Is our ATC (Air traffic control) qualified enf like Singapore is (handles 55 per hour)? Well The ans here but shame fully is no. So there’s is not just modernisation of airports which are required. It has to be something else too and if our minister is way too alone for all of this, then others have to step up.


I always feel good when I fly , of course using those cheap tickets and then fighting it out at the counter to get a window seat, or at times with my friends ; whom are too sweet to accept that exchange of seats. And yes i want this fun to be experienced by millions of my other Indian friends too. Cheers.!!!!

Complications in my own economy... ??? uff get over it

Well our very own Recession is on its peak....There are experts who keep on playing with the sentiments of people by showing some of the other facts stating its improving But thers seems to be no solution as of now...or may be not convincing enf.........

We are fierce sufferers of US actions... And we have no protection for our future challenges as well. Our Asian countries have a huge lumsum of foreign exchanges in Dollars...( China's , Trillions of F exchange constitutes quarter of worlds exchange) , India being one of them. The other day i was reading about the proposal of BRIC ( Brazil , Russia , India, China ) to adopt a common currency named as SDR ( Special Drawing Rights ) blessed by IMF ( international monetary Fund ), to at least save there A** from further meltdown of Dollar's value . May be they like discussions or meetings as its been long that the proposal is out and nothing has cum to the solution. But they are not freak of course , which i ws thinking after reading all those stories .

I was been fool to misunderstood the importance of Dollar in there exchange , not economically but ya on a personal note . China and India constitute major portion of the exports in today's world but pulling a trillion dollars or even half that amount out of the U.S. financial system would hurt China, India as much as it would to the U.S., ther biggest export market. we are already worried about slowing economic growth and mounting job losses, and if we were really to pull the plug on the U.S. we could lose all of the gains we have made over the past 30 years. Correct me if I am Wrong. but surely i would love to see SDR becoming one of the main exchange currency. Atleast i would have something to read in the newspaper i mean positive.......Lol ..... Personally i give a damm wats there in the newspaper perhaps , I worry more about a meteor hitting my house.

If i were an economist....... They call me an activist now

I wonder if am really aware of these term - Activism and Economism...really??. Today i was having a discussion with this man from ISB...and fell a victim of my confused thoughts and Aim....

We were arguing bout the steps that these big corporations take on the name of Social welfare while running schools and institution.. I felt and I feel that there actions are solely driven by the motive of Profit / revenues maximisation.... While Mr ram ( Other guy ) refuted my saying by calling these programs by organisations as a NON profit trusts....and on which they dont expect any return.. he ws adament on being on the Opposite side.. my Proofs my theory that they advertise there welfare activists in order to generate good that translates into increased revenues , did not solve the purpose.......
I was being labeled as an ACTIVIST , just because he calls himself as an Economist ..... This 'E' word is always a facination.. If someone asks me bout my preference between 'A' and 'E'... i would have gone with Economist...But as he said with the thoughts i have, i m no less than an Activist... I had no idea what was he talking bout...but yes if what i feel is 'A'....i might be an 'A'

Well he being on a stronger side , not for his explantions or words but being an ISB allumia.... mAkes a hell lot of difference.... I was like fighting against a collasal storm.. people or bloody people rather than taking my views into considerations supported him for you know what.....

MBA , does this word change a lot of things..... I certainly have to see that.... God Bless me...!!!!!

I favour federer.....

When I was a kid (yeah, I know a loooooong time ago, please don’t remind me!), I used to put a Christmas wish list down on paper. A letter that I would actually post in one of these big Re mail boxes in the Road corner. All it did was probably make the mailman smile when he saw “FOR SANTA CLAUS”, in my big, scattered writing.And here I am, in a grownup world, where I see some of the best players – and some of my good friends – try to steal the thunder of any event related to our sport. Yes i call it our sport. TENNIS is what i have been following all through my years and every sec of my life, and with which i feel so close even watching it on television But I thought, why don’t I make a wish list now? You never know. It might work! Some influential officials and all players might read it, and some of it may come true. Well, that’s being a little optimistic – even if I know for a fact that Federer is well read amongst influent people and top players ;-). So, there you go. I know, I’m a spoiled brat by asking all this, and some of it may not please some people, but Christmas time doesn’t necessarily mean we have to be nice to everyone anyways. Right? Oh, one more thing, this is not in any specific order. And forgive my poor sense of humour (I am an Indian tennis freak, remember. Just be happy that I’m not on strike!)
So if Roger!!!! if you can read it from somewhere and can understand how big an idol you are for me. and how much i appreciate you for all your achievements.. I along with my friends always wanted to play tennis like great people and now with you on the court ,all those greatness has sealed in one name and that's you..... so if from anywhere you are reading it let me know if you can fulfill me dreams list revolving around my favorite sport TENNIS... : Want to See you once, Want to play you once, once to show you that i am not a bad player at all and if ever you plan to play doubles tournament evr , you know who to partner with... Want to See your magical tennis bat.... and above all want to make every one jealous about you being with me as my mentor for the game.... Federer let me know when should i open my eyes.........



See our name also ryme the same......Roan - Roger....................................Roan
