Eco-Buddies


Global Warming is something I assume all of us to be aware of,being science students so without going into its definition we woud see what lead us to write about it on the blog.Global Warming is really a big problem we have to deal with nowadays, because it has the potential to change forever our lives and our planet's environment as we know them, and this would affect the whole mankind. There are huge social, political, and economic issues that will rise if we don't do something to stop the skyrocketing rise of the temperatures.
Green house gases can stay in the atmosphere for an amount of years ranging from decades to hundreds and thousands of years. No matter what we do, global warming is going to have some effect on Earth.Listing down just a few of them:

1. Spread of disease
Thanks to global warming,malaria has not been fuly eradicated.

2. Rise in ocean temperature,more hurricanes

3. More droughts and heat waves in Africa

4. Economic imbalances

5. Polar ice caps melting
-if all glaciers melted today the seas would rise about 230 feet!!! (avg man's height in the wrld is only 5feet sumthing)
-global ecosystem will be out of balance, making sea water less salty n screwing up the ocean currents which regulates the temperature
-several species of animals will be endangered. the most adaptive might just survive.
-ice caps act as reflectors,if they melt earth would be more warm, leading to no winters(tragic for fashion industry-no winter fall collections)

I'm sure the story uptill now must be clear to all and we hav realised that the villain is growing in power,so has the world. The Climate heros (including Mr Jairam Ramesh Minister for environment and forests, India) are trying to negotiate at the Copenhagen Climate Summit,we can build our own army in campus and contribute in our own little way to fight against Mr Villian.


All those MITSians who voluntueer to work for 'Save Earth' can sign up here as 'eco-buddies' and tell us your smart idea for the cause and also if YOU hav a slogan to shout it out.

Leave your comments with your email id so dat we can get back to you when we get in action.

MITs....Luxamberg..... home away 4m home :)

The perfect date...candle light dinner....with the one u love.... and there he kneels down...hold your hand...places a diamond clad ring in you finger..and....and...

Peppeepp...peeppeeppp...peeppeeepp...
“uth jaa kamini...warna class phir mis karegi”
No ...my dear babe’s in the woods ...its not someone’s mom freaking out...how could you forget your second mom, your best friend, your room’s worst or better half . With each morning when you lazily wake up or wake someone up (as mentioned above ) , you feel love in your heart , for someone so close. You do stay mum, but you cant deny. While brushing sleepily, you have your eye on a door, and someone’s exit from that is expected, to check if the person is awake or not. You have someone , infact lot many, to chatter with during the breakfast, a few less at luch , and a whooping gang ( what people like me fondly might call ) . Fun , at present , life , college .
Well what if one day you’re ( as you would be thinking at present ) , the happiest , finally out of MODY, will you ever wonder, what was behind, what has changed your existence.


Will  not attending classes affect you someday, will you miss some whatever people (as the lingo calls them ), will you miss the bitching around and endless gossip hours, the dirty birthday parties, the hearts that were put in and the laughs that came out ? will you ever learn to live, without these memories?
4 years , and life would move on. But there will remain things that one would love to brush through again, words that you wish could get back to you, a room that was once yours and a life that was once loved.
Because the Maggie parties would still go on, but what would change, will be the people partying, the room will still be filled, and still you would dare call it your room ( they say old habits die hard ).
 Even now the bathrooms will be empty in early mornings of the dreadful winters, the coffee’s would be gladly welcomed still, but somewhere in your office room and not in the usual mess.
The comments on some bitches would still be passed on by you, but will it be that fun with no one by your side , to laugh and to fight back . when high on fever , will there again be someone , who would help you recover and take you to clinics .
 Will the walks down new FET be hated any more or less, when will you feel so eager to have an ice cream , like it feels when served in mess.
When do you next plan to line up for coffee, when next will you roam in corridors , when next will you shout in bathrooms , when will you next plan an event , when next will you see your friends, when next will the word GROUP...mean the closest thing to you in the entire world?
I don’t know when next will I find a chance to say I’ll miss you!
So I’m saying it here.....
      any one who wants to join .....  :)

Dedicated to our back bencher frnz.....

this boring class,
this sleepy mass,
makes me wonder y m here
to b a part of the croud mere...

one teacher comes..speaks n goes..
n so forth this process follows..
no one thinks of the dreamy eyes,
who wana hv fun n so everythin they try..

those lil eyes looking at the board,
nt a single thing in dere mind ever goes,
bt still like statues they sit,
n in dere thots dey miss.....

they miss dere mobiles kept in d room,
they miss dere frnz in similar loom,
they miss dere lovers far frm dem,
as they r all surrounded by the girl's mayhem...

planning the evenings in dere minds,
with wt all movies the day will wind,
the special samosas of sharma treat,
celebrating the b'days using our EG sheets....

looking at the tym again nd again,
trying to concentrate on the amplifiers n gains,
bt leme tell u its al in vain,
nthin cn go in dis sleepy brain....

bt i bet u dere will b a tym,,
wen v'l b smewhere else to shine,
bt never will dis sleepy cls go away frm our minds,
never will v frgt dis marvellous tym....

we will crave fr dese evenings,
we will think of the b'days,
we will want everythin to stay,
bt the things will vanish smewhere arnd d lane.....

FLY AWAY


Make a move and

Open all the gates.

Veil away yours fears, to

Enlighten your fate. Go

Rekindle those desires to

Shimmer like the fire.

Adhere to your wishes....

Nurture your dreams....

Dare to say – “I wanna gleam”

Search, peek, peep and seek for more,

Hues all around are waiting to be explored.

Approach, reproach, go out when you get bored.

Keep working for all that should be yours.

Express yourself in your own way....

Risk everything to feel that ray....

Spread your wings wide, and fly away. JJ

I wish I owned a cloud

A dark shady cloud
Like a stale corpse wrapped in grey-black shroud
Deep within the spirits dance
Cloaked in their murky gown
Look there it goes, grows, rises, dips and drowns
Strips, splits,  drools and frowns
Builds its own air castle and a town
Far so low on my planet green and brown
Wandering around goes a baby kid
With no friends no toys in the surrounds
He looks up
Wonders if the sky really has no bounds
Glances at the cloud
Not one, there are so many more
And they make a world of their own
It seems so soft
Waving like a witch’s hair tuft
Dark in fury yet so calm
The stillness hooks me with a gaze
I want no house on the land
I wish I owned a little cloud.

Who Rules the Roost in Our Universe?????


Homo Sapiens. If this Latin nomenclature is defined as 'the species which is ruling the world' then most of the viewers of my blog will not find this explanation obnoxious to a great extent. But some silly and gruesome thoughts often erupt in my mind regarding this matter. Is the reign really ours? If we approve in favor of this question then why are we unable to escape the plunder caused by the turbulent tsunamis? And why cant we avoid the frequent earth tremors which are largely successful to shake our lives completely? We fall short of a plausible explanation for this and that we (in the current stage of scientific advancement) have no control over the earth's fury.
Lemme not use the term "nature's fury" here, cuz flora and fauna including all humans form a part of nature. And we are not frightened of any types of plants and animals around us. Are we? I can fall a hundred year old tree which may be very huge whenever I wish to. The other day I killed a leech sitting on my windowsill or can even kill a lion in the jungle as a pleasure hunt. These instances are evidences of our supremacy over them. So I call it earth's fury and not nature's fury. If we look back at the past we see that the dinosaurs, even when man caught a glimpse of them could scare the living daylights out of him. But yeah we are SAFE now :).. Thank god we have got rid of them. Even if they would have survived, we would stick a few wands in the dino's nostrils and then cast a few spells on it and it would fall down on the ground with a thud just like the troll in the Harry Potter's fantasies. Huh! it would have been damn adventurous. But my mind says it all very differently. Like if I make you admit that earth's fury defeats our so-called powerful species. Then it obviously holds some underlying force. We often study about the age of the earth by carbon dating. What if science in the not too distant future reveals that the earth is living? Just like we eat, sleep, and walk the earth also performs activities which seem to us like storms, cyclones, quakes and tornadoes. Actually non living things generally do not show locomotion as I was taught in class 6 (:p)... I call it the earth's fury but it would actually turn out to be the most supreme living element of the universe.
